Complaining is Not Conversation!

I was at a meeting yesterday when someone read a list of her tips for life (not just the holidays) and one in particular struck me...Complaining is Not Conversation...so very true and if only everyone realized this...

As for my own tips, I just believe in spreading joy in little ways wherever possible...putting a quarter in someone's meter, giving a Christmas cookie to a service person, smiling when you feel like frowning. In fact, I just wrote my blog about just that and would love to share it with you at http://screamingpillows.com/the-bright-side-of-the-holiday-season

I lost my house NEW
by: Steve

I lost my house and work is slow however I am relaxed about looking for my focus. I feel very little guilt about drifting for the time being. I am not obsessing about temporarily mislaying my compass. I used to have only 2 gears forward and reverse now I have found Park. I am confident that the haze will lift and my path will be clearly visible,
I am also doing part time web design courses online to get some skills.

Additional Gabrielle Thoughts...
by: Anonymous

My focus this Christmas (and beyond) is to do little things for people wherever I can...

put a quarter in someone's meter, give a cookie to a convenience store clerk, help an old person carry their groceries.

I want to slow down and to be aware of how I can help, and how I might be able inspire others to do the same.
