At a medical conference awhile ago, a statement was made regarding those who have dedicated their lives to medicine;

In a lovely metaphor, Ellen White said the best people are
those who cast their lives, like seed, into the “furrow” of human
need.

Education for
Character
By Charles Scriven
KETTERING COLLEGE OF MEDICAL ARTS

While I totally agree with the statement, and most certainly admire and respect those who have entered the medical profession, I think this metaphor applies to everyone who takes the time to give someone a hug, who tries to elicit smiles from those around them. Even a simple "Good morning" said earnestly to a passerby could actually make their day. You shall reap what you sow! grin hug handshake hug

(What's that Chuckles? Nah,..you know I'm just teasing when I call you stupid! Come here, give me a hug you silly bear,...hey, hey,....help help help Chuckles,....let,...go!! Note to self,...do NOT ask for a hug from a grizzly bear!!! Damn near killed me! Sheesh,...stupid grizzly!)

I hope everyone is having a great Canada Day weekend! And if you had to work, rolling on the floor laughing rolling on the floor laughing rolling on the floor laughing Hope it was a good day at work!

My encounter today reminded me that our perceptions of life and ourselves need to be sometimes viewed in the 3rd person ........ what to us is a tragedy to another can be a story of courage and inspiration.

Our perceptions of others can sometimes be totally wrong for all too often we jump to conclusions in our minds before we hear/see the whole picture.

Today I was inspired by a awesome woman. wine
