"My plea is that we stop seeking out the storms and enjoy more fully the sunlight. I am suggesting that as we go through life, we 'accentuate the positive.' I am asking that we look a little deeper for the good, that we still our voices of insult and sarcasm, that we more generously compliment and endorse virtue and effort." Thanks President Hinckley, for that reminder.
Sometimes (like today), it seems that in Corporate America, tempers and timelines are too short, we're over budget, under-slept, people on the defensive, blah, blah, blah. So...what is my strategy today? I ate my salami and swiss sandwich in the car, deep breath in, deep breath out, chin up, look for the sunshine (figurative sunshine - it's raining here as if it were a spring day in Glasgow), and scatter sunshine.
Who can use a kind word or a smile from me today? How can I "cheer and bless and brighten"? And ohhh...thanks to my cubicle neighbor, who just offered me some Jelly Bellies (coconut and black licorice are my favorites. She fishes those out of her jar just for me.) A little bit of sunshine sent my way too.
