Small Things Count

Time seems to fly these days but not without lots of accomplishments. Recently I found the fun in writing articles. There are so many ways to grow that there is no excuse for anyone to be bored. One that I wrote that I will share is http://EzineArticles.com/?id=489474 My little dog inspires me daily by her energy and determination. I find when my day was full and most that I have encountered have had a not so good day, she is always there to greet me at the door. That greeting lifts my spirits and give me a boost of energy to tackle my evening projects. We should take a note from our household friends that with a smile and a kind word even the worst of days have a ray of sunshine. You can visit my little friend Hollie at her own site for updates and inspiration http://valinspirations.typepad.com/miss_hollie_dog Find that little something or someone that just a small just lets your spirit soar. I did.

Growing in Leaps and Bounds

Since my last post I have ventured into managing my entertainment/inspirations website. What a challenge for the new year! BUT...I have accomplished small steps to share with you my big dream. So for all who fear the power of the internet, have no fear. With a little pure stubborn and determination, creating and managing your new site is doable. On the site you will find also a small store or shopping area with a few of the sayings that have inspired me after many years to take the next step forward despite the obstacles. Those sayings are printed on photos that I personally taken throughout the years. I have recently gone into the recording studio to record a beautiful song which will be available in the near future.

For those of you who still wonder is you can do whatever the dream is that you hold in your heart may I encourage you to take another step forward. I did and have not regretted a single moment. "Shoot For The Stars....You Just May Reach The Moon"

Visit me at www.avalentyneaffair.com I look forward to hearing from you soon. I enjoy you comments as well, they make my heart smile.

A Brand New Year Is Here!

And I am excited about what is ahead. The inspiration I want to share this note is "Don't Be Afraid That Your Life Will End,...Be Afraid That It Will Never Begin" Wow! What a statement but oh so true. Many times we are so concerned about getting older and we rush around trying to acquire so much that we forget to stop or slow down and realize that life is just passing us by. Although like most I reach for higher ground and more financial freedom to spend my time as I choose. I have realized that in fretting about the time I don't have, I don't stop to enjoy time I do have. This year I began it by spending my time home with my pets and myself and enjoyed the gifts of home, a warm and friendly fire, the sun shining through the windows, and a few friends that stopped by. Some of us however spend so much time on the couch and can tell you most of the programs on TV that they don't see the blessing of sharing precious time with those around them which is causing life to just pass them by. Which are you? Are you saying when this happens or when I do or get such and such then I will. May I suggest you begin today. When you begin to feel the joy I'm sure you will be glad you did. Drop me a comment..................I would love to hear for you.

A New Beginning

Today is the first post I have done. But as inspirations go, one of my favorites is "If You Have a Rose to Give, Give it Today.....Tomorrow May be Too Late. I encourage you to share in your goals, successes and words or encouragement that helped you get to those achievements. As time goes on I too will share in my past experiences, the hardship endured, the people who encouraged me and the words that lifted me to new levels. I look for to hearing from others as we travel this road.
