A Dozen Things To Do Today

Remember that some of the world’s nicest joys are its most special people and that you are definitely one of them.

Take care of that special person.

Enjoy the ride.

When the world is too busy, slow it down.

Climb one rung higher on the ladder to your stars.

Imagine what the view will look like when you get where you’re going.

Stay in touch with your inner voice; it always speaks the truth.

When you’ve been working too hard, give your batteries time to recharge.

Remember that you are someone who is thought of – with friendship and with love.

Keep a smile on that wonderful face of yours.

Have a great day.

And be happy!

— Collin McCarty

What’s Your Story?

blackboard with the words - what's your story?
Everyone has a story to tell. Allen Steble shares one of his.

 

Everyone is the same yet everyone is different
Everyone gets scared
Everyone has fears
Everyone has been afraid
Everyone has shed tears
Everyone

Everyone who lives has thought about love
Everyone who wonders has peered up above
Everyone

Everyone has overcome hate
Everyone struggles to forgive
Everyone has had a heated debate
They just can’t seem to win
Everyone

Everyone gets ill
Everyone has to sleep
Everyone wants to feel special
No one wants to be sold cheap
No one!

Everyone gets pain
Everyone experiences sadness
Everyone has a chain… a chain of madness
Yes
Everyone

Everyone has been angry
Everyone has been disappointed
Everyone has been hungry
Everyone has been dehydrated

Everyone gets older
Everyone becomes wiser
Everyone gets colder as winter draws closer
Everyone wants what they want
Everyone expects their needs
Everyone would like to be remembered
For their talents and fine deeds

Everyone has something to offer
Everyone is different
So share something good with someone
Everyone has something good to share
Everyone

A poem I wrote about the similarities and differences we all have and experience. It’s those differences we often look upon as fallacies, yet, those differences make us unique and special. May MotivateUs continue to motivate millions.
