Positive Thinking vs STINKIN' THINKIN'

We got back home last night from our November stay on the beach.  I have to say that it was really difficult leaving this year.  After working out this morning, I went to the Post Office to get our mail for the past 30 days.  As I got in my car, STINKIN’ THINKIN’ started.  It sounded […]

90 Days of Kindness – Day 60

We have now reached a milestone in our kindness challenge.  We are officially two thirds of the way done.  There have been some interesting things that happened to me during this time.  One of the most important things I have learned is that kindness is contagious.  I have discovered that when I do kind deeds […]

90 Days of Kindness – Day 58

Kindness is a blessing especially when you combine gratitude with it.  Being thankful for everything in your life will allow you to do even more for others.  You really can make a major impact on others.  All it takes is to practice doing kind deeds today.  Then, repeat tomorrow and keep repeating. “The unthankful heart… discovers […]

90 Days of Kindness – Day 54

Today’s kindness is compassion.  This was taken from our Daily Positive Points:  Look through the glasses of compassion and you will see things much clearer in your life.  Do not just look through them every now and then, teach yourself to look at each situation with compassion.  When the heart softens, peace and abundance immediately […]

90 Days of Kindness – Day 50

Today we were once again given a very cool air show by some of the locals.  Here in Destin, FL, there are several retired military pilots from World War II.  We discovered that they restored several 1944 T-6 Texans and to the delight of people on the beach, they fly in formation and put on […]

90 Days of Kindness – Day 49

This has been a very interesting week for me.  I have had ups and downs but realized yesterday that I am responsible for how I feel.  So, if I choose to feel good and happy, that is pretty much what I experience that day.  I tried that yesterday and simply had a great day.  I […]

90 Days of Kindness – Day 44

Yesterday I was traveling back from Chicago and had an interesting flight.  We quickly discovered that an elderly lady was pretty sick and needed medical assistance.  The flight attendants asked for anyone in the medical field to come forward.  At one point we thought that we were going to have to make an emergency landing […]

90 Days of Kindness – Day 42

Today I am in Chicago and was walking back to my hotel when I saw a homeless man on the sidewalk.  Every single person that walked by him avoided eye contact and did not offer him anything.  When I got up to him, I handed him some cash, looked him straight in the eye and […]

90 Days of Kindness – Day 36

This morning I went for a jog on the beach like I have done every days since arriving in Destin, FL.  While  jogging I was thinking about kindness and realized that I had pushed myself too far yesterday.  That sure was not being kind to myself.  So today I decided to cut my jog a […]

90 Days of Kindness – Day 35

You know, kindness is a lot like a garden hose.  What?  Did he just say that?  Yep, I did.  After my morning jog today I noticed a garden hose that had a pinch in it.  When I turned the faucet on, there was a pressure build up at the point of the pinch.  This meant […]
