Something good to say
How many times have your heard your mom say "if you don't have anything good to say don't say anything at all!"? I can just hear my mom and dad both saying this even today and I am 43! ha-ha Now I tell my kids the same thing!

Summers helping others
Seems living in the south it is always hot! But even in the hot weather there are things you can do for others. Like washing mom's car, lol.
But seriously there is much you can do help a neighbor. Here are just a few ideas.
Help a neighbor who might have health problems with things like getting the mail.
Cut grass for another neighbor who works long hours.
Help a neighbor load or unload their moving truck (great way to welcome new neighbors).
Take fresh veggies to another neighbor.
Share flowers and cuttings with neighbors.
Help a neighbor with repairs that they might not be able to do themselves.
Invite the kids over for some time playing in the sprinkler...this is a great way to give other parents a break.
Many of these seem like simple things but to many they mean so much!

Follow your dreams
I sit here thinking of my stepdaughter who will be off to college orientation in about a week and half from now and the college starts in the fall. She is really smart, pretty and creative. I know she will do well in whatever path she decides to follow.
She is not without the lack of those telling her what to do with her life and what not to do with her life. I only can say....follow your dreams and never stop dreaming! When you follow your dreams, you can accomplish anything!
The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.
