I have my own method of SPREADING GOOD CHEER THROUGHOUT THE YEAR!
For ages, story tellers were of value to tribes. The tradition of sharing information, which later became more colorful and entertaining, helped to educate, make people aware, and pass on information. Sharing the stories passed information on, in how to handle dangerous situations, as well as celebrations.
While sharing information can also be harmful, when sharing false information, gossip, harmful or hateful stories – WE HAVE A CHOICE!
LET US REJOICE in the ability of our BRAINS to be able to express ourselves so others can understand; in a VARIETY of ways!
LET US SPREAD GOOD CHEER!
LET US SPREAD GOOD NEWS!
ALL THROUGHOUT THE YEAR! Hear! Here!
Make it an everyday occurrence, from a place of LOVE, RESPECT and HONESTY.
I went grocery shopping this morning. As I was passing the baking pan aisle/section, I shared a funny story with a couple passing by. I have a friend in TEXAS who experienced an unexpected snow/ice storm! Well! The GRANDDAUGHTER made lemons out of lemonade! She used a COOKIE BAKING SHEET to slide on the snow! HO HO HA HA HEE HEE *WEEEEEEE!
The couple I shared this with, in passing, HAD A HEALTHY LAUGH and SMILE over it! They told me, in college, they had used cafeteria trays as sleds! IMAGINE THAT! Sharing a FUN, SILLY HEALTHY LAUGHING STORY, all the way from TEXAS to PENNSYLVANIA via social media connections!
IT’S MAGIC!
As I entered the grocery store, I passed a mom with her toddler son. He was carrying a stuffed ALVIN Character. I commented on ‘ALVIN.’ The little boy started to tell me WONDERFUL STORIES! A great friend of his mom’s had given him the gift of the Headphone Alvin was wearing! He told me how he had been listening to an ALVIN and the CHIPMUNKS car, on the way over to the store! He told me MORE AND MORE! I commented and listened. This little boy was FULL OF GOOD NEWS! What a super communicator he was! I told his mom, so! HO HO HA HA HEE HEE
We have SUCH POWER to share GOOD NEWS and AMUSE in a HEALTHY, RESPECTFUL way, EVERY DAY!
As I left my home to go shopping, I passed a new neighbor! I saw her license plate noted: 2H2O DGS I rolled down my car window, as I saw her walking a golden retriever. I said: Two Water Dogs? She noted the one dog was now in doggie heaven. I let her know of all the other FUN, PLAYFUL dogs around where we lived. I WAS SPREADING THE GOOD NEWS to a NEW NEIGHBOR!
USE YOUR POWER FOR GOOD!
USE THE POWER of SHARING A STORY from the HEART, from the SOUL – that’s the GOAL! We’re ON A ROLL!
HA HA HO HO HEE HEE - WE have the power to BE, GRRRRREAT STORY TELLERS OF GOOD CHEER!
Now, GET OUT THERE, PUT ON YOUR VIRTUAL DO-GOODERS CAPE and MAKE SOMEONE’S DAY!
MERRY MERRY TO ALL AND TO ALL A GOOD LIFE!
