I was recently in training where we were discussing the life stages of a child. What they experience and how they are thinking and all that Jazz. It was so fascinating and I learned so much.  I was so encouraged to see the process and understanding it.
Then, it hit me. The process to walk! First babies can do nothing but watch other people walk and because of this the idea to walk pops in the baby’s mind…..

    


“what are these people doing, I have to get my head up… finally my head  is up all on my own…. Now I have to see the full effect, sitting up accomplish… now I need to get around, let me try out crawling… ok crawling is now checked… ok I think I can pull up now… oh yeah let me take this first step… CRASH!!! Oh my that was a HARD fall… but who cares up I go… WOW am I finally walking?... yes I am walking… forget this walking running time!”



See this process takes a year or more or less, for a little baby to accomplish. WE ALL HAVE ACCOMPLISHED THIS and it’s apparent that we have greatness within us. We have all the support as babies and we HAVE TO FIND the same support as adults. 
Lets quit LESS and Support more….

Strings

Strings,

I was headed to Long Island, it was a rainy muggy day. I happened to notice there was a string from a loose thread hanging from my blouse.


I pulled on it and we all know what happened after that. The whole sleave strunched up and if i would have kept pulling eventually the whole shirt would be ruined. The only way to remove the string was to cut it off...
So i applied that to my life. I looked back at the people that i let hang on as the strings in my life. Unfortunately in some cases I would keep pulling and pulling, and pulling only to find that there was no way to even salvage a friendship because i just wouldnt Cut it off....
I involved other people... my kids and family... my friends...
I held on and on and on to those strings.... which resulted in a lot of hurt people..
So if you're reading this and can think about some of the people, things, even thoughts that are hanging by a string... I would suggest to just CUT it OFF... before the shirt can never be worn.
