Today is an actual SNOW day in Virginia Beach, which is miraculous to say the least. It is still coming down and already about 6"! And it's the good snow...
As I walked around, I saw people out with their kids, dogs, out just having FUN - snowball fights, snow angels, or twirling. What a beautiful thing! Everyone smiling at one another. You could see the utter joy in everyone's faces.
Imagine if we could approach most days with that childlike enthusiasm? Happiness. Joy. Wonder.
Beyond that, neighbors were helping neighbors. Salting one another's walkway. Teens playing but taking time to scrape off neighbor's cars... simple acts of kindness. Volunteering to work together and inevitably play together.
Despite the cold, my heart was warm. Smiling. This is how it should be. This is who we should be. We're at our best as individuals, communities, and even as a country when we work and play together - common purpose.
When are you at your best? We know there is a physiological reaction when we give... you just feel good.
As you consider your Vision - what you want in or for your future - think about what creates that childlike enthusiasm in you? and then make sure you incorporate those things too. In this life journey, it's important to remember to have fun along the way!
Before you can get what you want, you first have to KNOW what you want. As a believer in the power of the spoken and written word, my goal here is to encourage everyone to think about your dreams, write them down, and then believe in their reality.
