Do Something

" Ideas

won't

keep;

something

must

be

done

about

them."

~ Alfred North Whitehead

I have a good idea, let us all be kind, be loving,

be patient and tolerant and be the person the Higher Power,

the God of your understanding, wants us to be.

No, it is not a new or novel idea, but it is a good way

to start the day, now do something about it.

Do you have an idea to change a bad habit, a thought

about breaking an addictive behavior, do something,

ask for help, pray to a Higher Power, but in the end

know that without action the idea, the thought,

will be lost to the world of could have, would have

and should have.

Today, understand that the only good ideas,

the dreams, the hopes and wishes, the thoughts

that you can ever remember having are the ones

that you acted upon, the ones that became real.

Happiness is doing something with a good idea.

Happiness is helping someone help themselves.

Tolerance

"What is

tolerance?

It is the

consequence

of humanity.

We are all

formed

of frailty

and error;

let us pardon

reciprocally each other's folly -

that is the first law of nature." ~ Voltaire

Today, let us agree to disagree.

Today, believe that there are always three things

that are guaranteed;

your side of the story,

my side of the story

and the truth about the story.

Today, allow other people to be other people,

let them make their own mistakes, let them

jump to their own conclusions, however,

to allow others to abuse you is not to be tolerated.

Today, be tolerant, do not be critical of those

who are trying to be kind, trying to be helpful,

trying to do the next right thing, those who are

trying to do the the will of a loving Higher Power.

Happiness is having friends who are tolerable.

Happiness is helping someone help themselves
