Get Inspired


Better to lose count while naming your blessings 
than to lose your blessings to counting your troubles.  
~Maltbie D. Babcock


Get Inspired
What motivates you?  What moves you into action?  What makes you inspired?  Take some time today to seek out that feeling that stirs within your soul.  Let that be your guiding force.  Let it inspire you to create new dreams and create greater visions.  There is inspiration all around us and within us.  Let the inspiration that surrounds you wake up your soul to new possibilities.  Let it be your driving force.  


To get really inspired today, watch the video below:

Service



I have found the paradox that if I love until it hurts, 
then there is no hurt, but only more love.  
~Mother Teresa

Service
When you give of yourself, you truly grow.  There is not greater service to this world than to do something that helps another soul.  If we walk around believing that the world owes us something and all we want to do is take from this life, then we will never feel fulfilled.  Realizing that you are meant to be of service, that you are meant to help others and that your life is more enriched when you connect to another human being, well that is when your world will expand and overflow with so much love and joy you won't be able to believe it!  Give of yourself and when you can't give anything else, give even some more.

Despite all of the education, the knowledge and the resources out there, AIDS is still an epidemic in our World and in our communities.  Over 16,000 people die each year in the US of AIDS and around 50,000 people become newly infected.  This is a preventable disease and yet we are still burying our loved ones.  Let's all make a conscious effort to not partake in any behaviors that put us at risk, to love and support those who are living with this disease, and to educate our communities.
