You have a wonderful purpose

There are some people who just make you excited about life. And to them, I thank you! You have a wonderful purpose on this earth!

Song of the Day: You Raise Me Up

Sometimes, you have a bad day. And you just feel like you can't do anything. But then, you have a friend, or a family member pull you back up and help you remember why you keep pushing forward. Sometimes all it takes is someone to 'raise you up.'

Random Act of Kindness

A simple conversation is an act of kindness.
One thing I find most inspiring are random acts of kindness. I believe that deep down, everyone can sense how someone is feeling that day. And I also believe they know how to help them, but it takes a little extra effort to help them out.

There are so many stories of people who drive past a stranger changing a tire, or walk past someone who has dropped something on the ground and had the feeling they should help. It is only the ones who stop and help that make a difference.
A simple note is an act of kindness.

The truth to that feeling is that person is probably wanting someone to help them and you are the person to help. When we let those little feelings go away, we don't only give up the chance to make someone's day, we let that person who we should help go un-helped. We let them fend for themselves and pass the responsibility to help onto someone else.

Please, always help! You never know the small ripple you may start if you help someone today.

Song of the Day: Life's for the Living

I heard this song the other day. It is a beautiful song about just living life. Things happen, but we go on. We can go on to do great things! Good luck with the rest of your life. #inspireone


Life's for the Living by Passenger

Well grey clouds wrapped round the town like elastic
Cars stood like toys made of Taiwanese plastic
The boy laughed at the spastic dancing around in the rain
While laundrettes cleaned clothes, high heals rub toes
Puddles splashed huddles of bus stop crows
Dressed in their suits and their boots well they all look the same

I took myself down to the cafe to find all the boys lost in books and crackling vinyl
And carved out a poem above the urinal that read
Don’t you cry for the lost
Smile for the living
Get what you need and give what you’re given
Life’s for the living so live it
Or you’re better off dead

While the evening pulled the moon out of it’s packet
Stars shone like buttons on an old man’s jacket
We needed a nail but we tacked it ’til it fell of the wall

While pigeon’s pecked trains, sparks flew like planes
The rain showed the rainbows in the oil stains
And we all had new iPhones but no one had no one to call

And I stumbled down to the stomach of the town
Where the widow takes memories to slowly drown
With a hand to the sky and a mist in her eye she said
Don’t you cry for the lost
Smile for the living
Get what you need and give what you’re given
Life’s for the living so live it
Or you’re better off dead

Well I’m sick of this town, this blind man’s forage
They take your dreams down and stick them in storage
You can have them back son when you’ve paid off your mortgage and loans
Oh hell with this place, I’ll go it my own way
I’ll stick out my thumb and I trudge down the highway
Someday someone must be going my way home

Till then I’ll make my bed from a disused car
With a mattress of leaves and a blanket of stars
And I’ll stitch the words into my heart with a needle and thread
Don’t you cry for the lost
Smile for the living
Get what you need and give what you’re given
You know life’s for the living so live it
Or you’re better off dead

Don’t you cry for the lost
Smile for the living
Get what you need and give what you’re given
Life’s for the living so live it
Or you’re better off dead
