Good evening all, I need to say about make my day. I have been real fortunate lately down here in SW florida, with the hard times at the restaurant and all over the city, that our associates and my friends have all come together. People are searching for other ways to show they care besides money. It appears to me people in my group are spending more time sending notes, cards, or giving as we call them " verbal Tips" to ensure we can all make it through this time we are in. Surviving 9/11 and the impact on the world and seeing the positive right now, it feels good. I appreciatge Kristen getting this group going and knowing this is and important topic to talk about. I will be in touch again.

What made my day recently was discovering that one of the editors I do freelance work for has me listed on the masthead as a Contributing Editor. I always get a charge when I go on their website and see a story I've written with my byline on it! Since I write all of my own publication, Foodservice East, I don't give myself bylines-and it makes my day to see one.

I could have written these exact same words! Incredible - but maybe not- maybe everyone has this experience of a friend whose negativity is dragging down his/her life and yours too - I really have come to believe these past two years that if you exude positive energy, it grows and comes back to you - when you are negative about everything you are diminishing your own worth and why would anyone respond positively to that kind of attitude? Believing in yourself, your own ability to be who you are and do what you love, is so important! You are so right- we control our lives but it all starts with accepting and caring about ourselves. This makes our day, every day!

I have a friend who was having a hard time feeling comfortable in his own skin. He complains all the time about things not going his way, but does nothing to change it. So I say to him, "If you want to happy, be happy. You can control your own life. It's as simple as that." A day later, he told me that was the best thing anyone had ever said to him. And I must admit, making his day made my day!
