Many people may stumble through this life thinking very little about the words they choose to say to those who occupy the space around them.  I sincerely believe there are few more egregious acts then the act of someone knowingly and willingly throwing words around in an attempt to maliciously cause harm to others.

The phrase, “Sticks and stones may break our bones but words will never hurt us.” has been echoed by many down through our checkered history, but I call baloney!  For I’ve come to know and understand that words can do far more than just break bones.  Words can mangle the mind, hemorrhage a heart and kill a soul.

So be careful what you say and who you say it to.  Choose to build others up with your words and use your corrective words wisely with love and compassion.  There’s no doubt the world would be a much better place to live in if this practice was more commonplace.  Don’t forget to do your part.

Let’s continue in our tireless efforts to make it GREAT!

Warning!!!  I would like to issue an APB (All-Points-Bulletin) that Energy Vampires have been once again spotted among us all.  They’re on the loose on our jobs, in our communities and even in our churches.

Not all of them have visible horns with sharp fangs and wear black capes under cover of darkness, but they can be equally as deadly in their methods and unsavory, malicious tactics.  They’re not only great at sucking the life and energy out of the room, but if you’re not careful, they may also manage to suck the life and energy out of you.  I’m sure we’ve all seen them before because they come in all shapes, sizes, shades, colors, kinds and creeds.

Yes my friends, be on the lookout and keep your stakes razor sharp and your holy water at the ready because your encounter is no doubt coming sooner-or-later.  Don’t fall victim to the flagrant language and reckless behavior and disregard for the feelings of others exhibited by these Energy Vampires.  Instead, keep your mind renewed and refreshed and ready to resist such an encounter.  Many unsuspecting, would-be victims may be secretly counting on you to diffuse such a moment where an Energy Vampire is on a reckless rampage.  So don’t let them down.  Not today.

So, my good word to you today is, “Don’t get ready for battle, stay ready.”  Be prepared to save the day and make it GREAT!

At the end of the day I encourage you to close the door on those feelings of animosity and resentment harbored for those who have hurt and offended you during the day.  Cast aside all negative thoughts and ill-will toward those who may have done you wrong and then put your mind at ease and open a new door when the sun comes up.

The new day is designed for new thoughts and new ideas and feelings and the old negative thoughts must stay in the “yesterday” and we must say “yes today.”  Yes, to taking yet another positive step in the direction of our goals and dreams.  Yes, to capturing those moments to create memories that may even take our breath away.  Yes, to keeping your joy under lock and key away from the would-be joy stealers hiding out in the corners of our daily lives.

Adopting this philosophy in life can definitely lead you in a direction of making it GREAT!  So, clear your mind and dream well tonight, then wake up refreshed and go make those dreams come true.  Make it GREAT!!!
