The Truth....

I heard this the other day and was reminded that "The Truth" has three sides to every event, story, or situation you may encounter.


  • My Perspective
  • Your Perspective
  • What Really Happened

Something to think about when you don't understand why the other person in the situation is hurt, upset, or doesn't agree with you.

I'm A Work In Progress...


I saw this statement today and it really struck a cord with me.  I think everyone is a "Work In Progress" all throughout their lives.  I can only hope that every new adventure or challenge that I come across makes me a better person.  I want to live my life whole heartedly and in the end look back and be able to reflect where I started and how far I've come knowing that I have always done my best. 

Doing your best takes me back to the book "The Four Agreements" and what a great philosophy to live by.  I've spoken about this book and the philosophy before and I am reminded by the "Work In Progress" statement that the philosophy of the "The Four Agreements" is a key element to my daily self improvement.

My mantra is to "Live, Love, & Laugh".  

"Live" - Do the things you really want to do.  Don't wait for things to happen to you; make things happen with no regrets.  (Unfortunately, life responsibilities get in the way of this but I am doing my best to always keep this mind).

"Love" - Open your heart to your loved ones and make sure they know how much you care for them every day.  I think this so very important and feel that many people take this for granted.

"Laugh" - Enjoy the many moments of happiness in your life.  There is nothing like the release of a good loud laugh.  Believe me I can laugh really loud.

 So, here's to my life "It's A Work In Progress" .
