I hope you haven't felt abandoned...time often escapes me and I'm still working on building new things into my schedule as I eliminate those old things that no longer work or serve purpose. Today then, we have much on which to reflect, catch up, and share. Sorry it's been more than a week! Forgive, ok?
Some great new things in my life:
+ "Area Governor of the Year" and "Newly Appointed Division Governor" for D65 Toastmasters
+ successfully served in other roles that day as a full participant in an awesome conference
+ Taking an Amateur Radio licensing course
+ Taking an online discussion course in "Teaching for a Positive Future"
+ Looking forward to a new profile pic
+ So grateful for the support and encouragement from a variety of sources lately
This morning, amid all this other excitement and the daily duties of an academic library assistant, I came across a really cool guy online. His name is Nick Vujicic and he has a very empowering mission. What struck me was an inspirational video he shares on http://www.lifewithoutlimbs.org/ he calls "Passing On The Torch."
“You are the light of the world... let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven." (Matthew 5:14,16)
I really think that's the verse that inspired me to start this blog recently. You see, I don't remember telling the world when i started it or signed into twitter, but when i was creating my name and thinking up rotating passwords, i was singing the song, "This Little Light of Mine" --and that's what I want to do; I want to shine my light and encourage others to do so all around the neighborhood/world.
Thank you so much for stopping in today. I hope that during this season of "thanksgiving" you'll seriously consider that facebook challenge to list something for which you're grateful, that you'll check out that video link above, and that you, regardless of your label of "faith" or "worldview" will spread good things wherever you go.
