Subject: Sand Dollar: Just By Being in it, Joseph Mazzella - July02, 2008



~~ Sand Dollar ~~ Wednesday, Jul 2, 2008 Published by Bob Johnston - Edited by Kathy Baker Serving subscribers around the world since 1998 Make a Ripple - Make a Difference ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Greetings Doves ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ JUST BY BEING IN IT By Joseph J. Mazzella My old friends have returned for another summer of fun in my backyard. There must be hundreds of them out there every night. I can't stay up with them anymore, but I sure do love watching them dance in the darkness for the first few hours after the sun goes down. They don't even need any music and I never have to worry about them bumping into each other either, because each one of them carries their own light. Watching my friends, the fireflies, light up my backyard every night brings me nothing but joy. I feel my own light shining a little brighter when I see them and I feel a little closer to God's love as I look at them. What a wonderful love God must have for us all to give us such a beautiful world full of amazing creatures like these. They make the whole world a better place just by being in it. Just think of what a paradise Earth would become if everyone of us also did our best to live a life so beautiful that we made the world a better place just by being in it. Just think what it would be like if all of us started each day by remembering how much God loves us and by thanking Him for our lives. Just think what it would be like if we all took the time needed to fully love God, ourselves, and others. Just think what it would be like if each of us spent each and every day sharing love, joy, goodness, laughter, and smiles with everyone we met. Like my firefly friends we all would be carrying our own light, and our souls would be shining bright enough to light up the whole world. Start today then. Start shining your light now. Live from your soul. Brighten the lives of all those around you. Be a beacon to others. Live a life of such joy, love, and oneness with God that you make the world a better place just by being in it. This world needs your light. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ May you be blessed today Bob Johnston Editor / Publisher ~~~ *** ~~~ *** ~~~ *** ~~~ *** ~~~ *** ~~~ *** ~~~ *** ~~~ *** ~~~ If you like Sand Dollar, please recommend it to your friends and help us grow. ~~~~~Important Information~~~~~ To view archives (past issues), click here: "http://www.archive.zinester.com/74093" **** **** **** To subscribe to this newsletter, click: www.ripplemaker.com/Subscriptions **** **** **** To cancel your subscription, send a message to: Bob@ripplemaker.com with "Cancel Sand Dollar" in the subject. **** **** **** To contribute a story for Sand Dollar, send it to: Bob@Ripplemaker.com **** **** **** If you encounter a problem, please send e-mail to me at: Bob@Ripplemaker.com
