Do we rely more on hope...

Than our own expectations?

Occasionally, we do, but it's not the best made plan.

Hope is bound to include outside help to step up, before we do.

It's our own expectations that gets our wheels turning by our own power, driving towards what we expect.

So next time your find yourself relying a bit too much on hope, set your expectations and let the trip unfold.

Pam Worthy...

Got along with folks like candy to a baby.

People loved her. She had an inspiring personality and a "can do"
attitude, which left nothing but fulfillment and hope wherever she went.

There was not much difference with Pam than with most others, with the
exception that she understood that all people "matter" and should be treated royally.

So she made it a point to keep her thoughts positively aligned with her
desired outcome to "bring up" everyone she made contact with.

It is also no surprise that Pam's life was fulfilling and abundant, and
all the people she helped out, not only returned the favor, but they started to
help out others...from her inspiration.

The Story of the 2 Wolves...

One evening, an Old Cherokee Chief told his grandson about a battle that
goes on inside all people. He said, "My son, the battle is between two
"wolves", within or minds...inside us all.

One is Evil - It is anger, envy, jealousy, sorrow, regret, greed,
arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false
pride, superiority and ego.

The other is Good - It is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility,
kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion and faith.

The grandson thought about it for a minute and then asked his
grandfather: "Which one Wins?"

The Old Cherokee Chief simply replied, "The one you feed".

Just keep the Needle...

Of Hope and Opportunity pointed in the direction you want to go.

We will always have detours along the way in our life's journey, some
of them getting us off course, or maybe putting us in "pause" for a bit.

No matter what we face or happens in our lives, the Needle can always
be pointed in the right direction, help getting us back on course,
once the interruption is in the past.
