OPEN YOUR HEART

Good Morning!  I skipped yesterday.  Yesterday was Father's Day.  I hope that everyone who still has their dad around had a great day and was able to spend it with their dad or at least call and say hi.  My dad had a major milestone yesterday.  He never likes to talk about his age but he reached 95 yesterday.  He is truly amazing and not just because he has reached such an age with no major health issues but because he is really a great guy!

My dad was and is always a champion of the little guy so to speak.  He is one of those people who sees the good in everyone even down to the tiniest creatures.  In his mind we are all G-d's creatures and no one should cause harm to anyone or anything no matter how large or small.

Today's quote, "Emulate those with a big heart - not a big head."  Be like those who have an open heart and are willing to share themselves with others, not the people who tell you how great they are because of what they may have done.  Even if you have done something wonderful don't go around and brag about it.  Have some humility.  Be humble. 

Do wonderful things not for the adulation of it all but because you want to.  Always have a big heart, always show compassion and always be kind.  We hear this all the time but really do it.  The best thing you can do is to do something wonderful and not talk about it.  Do something good for someone or something because you want to, not for the applause.  Everything and everyone deserves kindness.

I learned this from my dad from the time I was little and he is the one person I have always tried to emulate.  Open you heart and find the compassion that is within you because it exists and share it with those around you! Have a great Monday everyone!~Love, Amy
