First and Foremost I thank God for the gifts and talents he has given me.

Thanks to my Mom, Betty Williams, who has always encouraged me and had great faith in my abilities.

This book is dedicated to my grandmother, Malindia Henry, and my aunt, Margaret Loretta Henry. These two women affected me greatly in different ways.

I Love And Miss You Both!!
I pray that within this book you find words to inspire you, encourage you and make you want to take positive actions in your life.

Stir up the passion and gifts within you.
Is darkness spinning all around you
Tossing you about in the fray
Is negativity swirling, circling
Making for a dark and gloomy day
Is the fog thick and dreary
And there is nothing bright?
Is your tunnel long and dark
And you cannot see the light?
Don’t give up, don’t give in, make the darkness take flight!

You have wonderful hope and power
A light that cannot be dimmed
You are the light in your darkness
Tap your power within
Look deep into your heart
Call upon the love that resides there
Send a message to your mind
Revel in the things for which you care

When everything around you is negative and bleak,
Dig deep, dig in and let your hope speak.
Day 1

Laugh it Up!

Do you laugh at yourself when you fall or make a mistake? I was walking in a parking lot while talking to a friend, and I slipped and fell on a half melted piece of thin ice. There was nothing graceful about this fall – I fell backwards, both legs went up in the air, and I hit the ground hard. I was thankful for two things – I wasn’t hurt and only one other person saw me fall.

Laughter erupted out of nowhere. I started cracking up at myself. My friend said, “Are you all right.” I said laughingly, “Yeah, oh my God, that was a hard fall. I’m glad no one else saw me!” I continued laughing uncontrollably. She shook her head and laughed as she said, “Are you all right? You are so crazy. I’m going inside to have someone salt this parking lot.”

For some reason, whenever I fall down, such as trip on the stairs, stumble or just fall flat on my butt, laughter erupts from my body. If someone is around and witnesses my klutziness, their first response is concern, but once they know I am okay, they feel at ease and join in the feel-good moment.

Don’t be so uptight or take yourself so seriously that you cannot laugh at yourself. When we have good humor about things, it can lighten a tense moment or allow others to have a new perspective in a sticky situation.

Falling is a part of life – we all do it. The important thing to do is get back up and continue being positive. We cannot blame others for our falls or failures. When someone witnesses our falling, they can be inspired by our ability to recover with a good attitude.

Laughter and lightheartedness are gifts that should be shared to lighten the moment, put others at ease and make our burdens a little lighter to bear.
How do you recover from a fall? Are you able to laugh at yourself, or more importantly, recover from a negative situation with a positive outlook?
