Taking a Journey


I will be taking a few days off. My daughter is getting married and any 'in-between' time left, I'll try to write something. I'm excited, happy and hopeful for her life that lay ahead with her new husband.

It is the anticipation of change that sometimes prevents people from actually embarking out on a new course. It can be a daunting task but you will never experience the greatness of change without actually stepping out in change.

There will be up, downs and many sideways events in your journey. Just keep your eyes focused on the end. You can always correct your course along the way. Most of all, enjoy the journey.

See you in a few days!

Be A Person Of Action

"Man is born for action; he ought to do something. Work, at each step, awakens a sleeping force and roots out error. Who does nothing, knows nothing. Rise! to work! If thy knowledge is real, employ it; wrestle with nature; test the strength of thy theories; see if they will support the trial; act!" Saint Aloysius Gonzaga, patron saint of youth is quoted as having said this back in the late 1500s.

It is very appropriate even today as we each struggle to achieve a great life. It is action that is required on your part. You must choose a door, step through it and into a new way of doing things. For very few people is this an easy task to accomplish. Many of us simply have a hard time making a choice, let alone acting upon that choice.

Go ahead, make the choice and step through to a greater life. Let the person inside of you to take hold, try something different and see your life change. Be a person of action.
