Adulting 101 – Successful People Celebrate the Success of Others

How we handle other people's success, especially when things may not be going the way we hoped, is an indicator of our maturity and our own confidence and belief in ourselves. So... what can you do when the green-eyed monster of jealousy rears it's ugly head when you see others thrive with opportunities, get recognition,… Continue reading Adulting 101 – Successful People Celebrate the Success of Others

#bethelight – Day 155

It is spring and the flowers are beginning to take off and add color and happiness to my surroundings.  It got me thinking that the world needs more flowers.  I just think that we need to add more pretty things to the world.  There are so many ways you can add prettiness to the world:… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 155

#bethelight – Day 152, 153 and 154

Today is actually day 153.  I missed blogging day 152 and 153 because I was at the State Thespian Conference and really didn't have the opportunity to blog.  However, that didn't stop me from looking for opportunities to be kind... like holding open doors, talking to kids that were alone in the crowd, hooking up… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 152, 153 and 154

#bethelight – Day 151

Check in with someone. Recently an acquaintance texted to see how I was doing. She said she hadn’t seen a lot of me in a while and wanted to say “hi.” Although it was simply my crazy busy life style that kept me from being around much, her outreach was touching.  So I reached out… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 151

#bethelight – Day 150

Today I made a list of things people have given me... no strings attached.  You should try it.  I am so grateful for the people who are willing to give to make my life better with no expectations of anything in return.  So... I then decided to make a list of 10 things I I… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 150

#bethelight – Day 149

Oops... I didn't post yesterday.  I do have a good reason.  I worked all day... mostly teaching.  At the end of the day my husband was using my computer so I decided to soak in the hot tub.  Then my daughter called.  She needed her mom.  So I got out of the hot tub ,… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 149

#bethelight – Day 148

Today is Easter... a day celebrating the greatest act of kindness EVER. Today is also April Fool's day. I have no idea what the history of playing tricks on people is all about.  It seems rather mean spirited.  Today I'd like to follow the other tradition, the greatest kindness ever.  Today I'd like to see… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 148

#bethelight – Day 147

Today I took dinner to my daughter who had a baby 2 weeks ago and is so tired.  Our church does a good job the first week after a baby is born in helping out a new mom... but as you all know... being tired is going to be a thing for at least the… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 147

#bethelight – Day 146

Today we head home after a short visit with family. Sure love these silly little people and their hard working parents. But today, my act of kindness is to be nice on the road. I will let people in my lane ( a rare thing in Utah), I will use my blinker, and I will… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 146

#bethelight – Day 145

Today we went on a small road trip and showed the kids were we got married. It has been closed for the past two years while the church has upgraded the temple. I love how it looks the same. The colors are the same and everything. It was a little odd to sit in the… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 145
