Want to Be Happy? Be Grateful.
stop. look. go.
Sometimes we rush through life without taking time to really appreciate what we have. When we realize what we have it is easier to share with others.

Thank the Crossing Guard
We pass them every day on the way to school. They stand outside in heavy rain and on cold snowy days to help kids safely cross the street.
I love this video showing how one community decided to thank their crossing guard for his many years of service.
We All Create a Symphony
Glorious
There are times when you might feel aimless
And can’t see the places where you belong
But you will find that there is a purpose
It’s been there within you all along
And when you’re near it you can almost hear it
It’s like a symphony just keep listening
And pretty soon you’ll start to figure out your part
Everyone plays a piece and there are melodies
In each one of us. Oh, it’s glorious
And you will know how to let it ring out
As you discover who you are
Others around you will start to wake up
To the sounds that are in their hearts
It’s so amazing what we’re all creating
It’s like a symphony just keep listening
And pretty soon you’ll start to figure out your part
Everyone plays a piece and there are melodies
In each one of us. Oh, it’s glorious
And as you feel the notes build
Oh, you will see
It’s like a symphony just keep listening
And pretty soon you’ll start to figure out your part
Everyone plays a piece and there are melodies
In each one of us. Oh, it’s glorious
