Looking Up
Good morning,
This morning, I read an email from a 20-
Today's feature article is for those who are considering NOT making the most of their
natural talents and forms of personal power because of some jaded belief that the
world is not worthy of their gift. And it is for those who fear that standing tall
and proud might be the wrong thing to do, might be too arrogant and self-
It reminds me of a fortune cookie message I taped to my computer years ago... "The world needs your gift as much as you need to give it."
take care,

Quote of the Week:
The person who tries to live alone will not succeed as a human being. His heart withers
if it does not answer another heart. His mind shrinks away if he hears only the echoes
of his own thoughts and finds no other inspiration. -
You cannot get through a single day without having an impact on the world around
you. What you do makes a difference, and you have to decide what kind of difference
you want to make. -
Tug on anything at all and you'll find it connected to everything else in the universe.

Feature Article of the Week:
The Domino Effect
It was not all that long ago that people rarely gave themselves permission to do anything for themselves. They stayed in bad marriages because the church and their communities would ostracize them for getting a divorce. They set aside their personal dreams to toil away at the family business. Men would hear such things as, "Your father was a doctor, his father was a doctor, his father before that was a doctor, and all the way back through three generations the men in our family have always been doctors, so you will be a doctor too." Women would silently suffer through all sorts of abuse rather than shame their families by speaking out against those who would do such things. Men and women would work hard, sacrifice much, and never do anything to shame the family honor. They were not very happy, but they had things mapped out for them and the rules were clear.
As with all things human, the pendulum did swing. And it swung hard in the opposite
direction. An entire generation grew up being called The Me Generation. The meaning
of life became a personal quest for personal happiness, personal fulfillment, personal
satisfaction, personal journeys, personal needs, and personal goals and dreams. To
love someone meant to support them 100% in anything they wanted to do, even if it
was bad or wrong. Unconditional Love because the pop phrase to describe the concept
of "no matter what I do, you have to love me or else you are unenlightened." Individual

Personally, I am tired of listening to older generations whine about having to be unappreciated martyrs and younger generations acting like selfish brats. It is time for balance. Somewhere in between doing everything for others and doing everything for yourself, there has to be a place of true inner peace. In between focusing on 'you' and focusing on 'me', there has to be a 'we' that makes more sense. No man is an island. Even a hermit's decisions and choices affect everyone who loves him and everyone who needs him.
If you decide to be a high school drop out and a drug addict, nobody can stop you. You not to live up to your potential, because you would rather just hang out doing nothing all day. You can choose to hide away in a cave and avoid humanity because they are all a bunch of messed up losers anyway. It is your prerogative to become anything you set your mind to. I am the first one to tell you that you should be allowed to live your life any way that you choose. However, do not lie to yourself by telling yourself that you are not hurting anyone but yourself. In fact, you are hurting everyone who loves you. You are hurting everyone who was supposed to be touched by you and your special gifts.
You have a gift to give to the world and you can give it or your can throw it away,
but do not think that you are the only one effected by that decision. Every person
on this planet who was meant to be motivated, encouraged, and helped by the beauty
of your soul is effected by you not showing up. Choosing to be a deadbeat is selfish
and cruel. There are people who need you and you are turning your back on them,
and for what? For the right to thumb your nose at society. Did you ever think that
maybe that is why you are here -
If a parent makes the decision to be successful and wealthy, their children are affected by it. They are affected by the wealth, the way people treat them for being the child of a wealthy successful member of the community, and by the amount of time and focus a parent has to put into achieving that level of success. In the same manner, a parent who chooses to live as a drunk and a stoner, role modeling addictions and poverty to their children have a huge affect on the way the world views those kids. Is it the child's fault their parents are flakes? No, but those kids are going to be treated badly nevertheless. Right or wrong, we are judged by who our families are and by what they do. What you do effects how your community will treat the rest of your family.
If you decide to quit dating because it is just too darn hard to find the right one

If you are an employee who only does the bare minimum it takes to keep from getting fired, you are not just hurting yourself. You are hurting the company. You are hurting the people who have to go in behind you and work extra to finish the work you did not bother to do. You are hurting the children and spouses of those people who have to work late because you cannot be bothered to do your best.
Yes, you have a right to live your life any way that you please. You have a right and an obligation to yourself to find personal happiness and fulfillment in your choices. But you also need to remember that we are all interconnected and when you slack off, intentionally fail, or give up... you are creating a domino effect and it does effect everyone that you come into contact with, everyone they come into contact with, and everyone that you were meant to come into contact with. Nothing you do is ever really personal. Your personal happiness and the happiness of those around you lies somewhere in between martyr and spoiled brat. Find your place and you will find your peace.
