HONORING PEOPLE

.............no matter where they are in life, what position they have, or where they have come from.



People are people, and they have the same right, just as you, to be respected, and honored, as individuals, as people who are on this trek in life, just as you are.



No one is better! No one person, supersedes another!



We all have our separate lives, our separate roles, and each and every one of us is important, valid, and human, in all of our frailties. We all need to be honored for who we are, even if it is different than us.



We all make up part of the puzzle, and hopefully, hopefully, we can all come together to help put the piece of the puzzle together as a TEAM.



If we are going to put a puzzle together, or at least try to figure out the puzzle, we need to come together, work together, to help each other out, not be on opposing sides.



Everyone needs to know that it takes a togetherness to make a great plan work, even if it seems that things aren't going as smoothly as planned.



We, have to be the artists in this game, and mold ourselves, first and foremost, to what we think may work to make the puzzle fit, and then, anything after that, can be tweaked as you go. You learn as you go, but if you have a solid foundation, as to what the basic elements are to honoring, respecting, and appreciating another individual, you have most of your darn life, licked, I kid you not!

Look at people, and before making a judgement, take a few seconds and hold back. Give it a moment, and at least, at least, wonder if your statement is just flying off of your tongue, or do you really have solid, valid information that backs up the statement that you are about to make.

Hay, maybe YOU ARE FAT! Maybe YOU are judging yourself, so you feel the need to go ahead and judge someone else to make YOU feel better!

Maybe YOU feel inadequate, so you feel the need to make someone else feel the same. Will that make you feel better?

I can't believe that inside, truly, inside, you believe that you are so much better than that person, that you have to tell them all of their flaws and blow up their mishaps! If so, you might want to look up the word DENIAL and call me in the morning.

Not looking for an argument, just a reality check!

Be kind!

Why not?

Doesn't it feel good when people are kind to you?

Especially when you are having a bad day, doesn't it bring you up, or make your day THAT MUCH BETTER?

Don't be so quick to knock someone down. They might be having the same bad day that you had last week, when it seemed that no one was helping you out of the mood either, and it made for a very long night!

Everyone is here trying to make the best of their days, amongst all of life's mishaps, the joys, the sorrows, the uncontrolled situations that we all have to handle and digest, when we just don't feel like it.

Give a hug, a pat on the shoulder, and let someone know that they are appreciated, just once..........tell them how good they are doing, instead of what they didn't do right, or how things were messed up.............

A smile and some tid bit of an accolade now and again won't ruin you!

Think of your worst day, and who made it better.

Remember what they did, and take a lesson.

It will probably work for you too!

Just food for thought..............always, food is in there somewhere, even if it isn't literal.

Food works, especially for thought!

Love you guys.
