YOU are ONE OF A KIND!

Just a short note tonight-since it's a late night again for me. It is very cool that we, as individuals, are so unique. We were all raised differently, even within the same family! Our experiences are all unique to us..."YOU" and only "YOU" have your experiences. There is nobody...NO ONE..on earth like YOU. How cool is that?
An important lesson I have learned and relearned (over and over!) in my life is...everyone interprets things differently. We cannot know exactly how someone will "take" things we say or do. We can easily offend someone without even intending to do so. This is why we must NEVER judge others...even if they offend us. We all are different, and each of our views of the "world" are different. I need to work on accepting, respecting, and loving the uniqueness of all persons around me-and not be so quick to be offended or upset. What a waste of time and energy to feel and harbor these negative feelings. I love and enjoy the diversity within my circle of family and friends-as well as all people in this WORLD. I feel at home, and at ease, accepting them all...with love...despite the differences. We all do need certain things....love, and each other. That is what we have in common that really counts. That's enough for me.
I Love you all. Thank you for the greatest gift of all-"YOU"!

LOVE "YOU" 1ST!

Good evening.
I'm getting to bed pretty darned late tonight-may have to skip my early morning work out this time. I have been working late at my business to try to clean, organize, streamline, de clutter, and upgrade/network my computers. 25 years worth of just "flying by the seat of my pants" in my business has come to an end. We are now coming up in the world & making sure we are "JIVIN" with the times. How much better will the company run after this overhaul?...IT WILL RUN WITHOUT FLAW as planned... eventually. THEN we can really focus on our "clients" who mean EVERYTHING to us in our business. As important as the clients are to us...we must first take GREAT care & fix up our business.
The same holds true for us as individuals...take extremely good care of YOU FIRST, RESPECT YOURSELF, ORGANIZE YOURSELF, DE CLUTTER, UPGRADE...MOST IMPORTANTLY LOVE YOURSELF FIRST. It sounds very selfish and even "arrogant"...but in order to really focus and take care of others...YOU MUST COME FIRST! How on earth can anyone LOVE you if you don't even LOVE YOU. Would you buy a Mercedes from a salesman who admits and keeps reminding you how much he "hates Mercedes'? Heck- NO WAY! Treat yourself as the Queen or King that you really are! You will find that this really intensifies the LOVE you have for others...your ability to LOVE and TAKE CARE of those around you is EFFORTLESS & ENDLESS. "YOUR" clients mean EVERYTHING to YOU...so go ahead... TAKE TIME FOR YOU. ENJOY!

Love, Wendy
