#79| Spring Fling

March 20, 2015 By Michelle Matthews-Calloway Leave a Comment

shareasimage_MicklaL79M

A “spring fling” does not have to relate solely to romance.

You can have a fling with an idea; a notion to try something new.

You can decide to stop and smell the roses. Shucks, you can decide to plant some – or even wear some!

(We have it on good authority that few sights are more beautiful than a woman with a flower in her hair).

You can choose to embrace the season, remaining ever on the lookout for new avenues of happiness, abundance, laughter and love.

It’s Spring – so have a fling, why don’t you?

Happy Spring!

shareasimageTaskAtHand75M

“The price of success is hard work, dedication to the job at hand, and the determination that whether we win or lose, we have applied the best of ourselves to the task at hand.”

Every one of us currently has something designated as “the task at hand.”

#58| No Competition

February 27, 2015 By Michelle Matthews-Calloway Leave a Comment

shareasimageKarenAndAlli58F

So, who’s your best friend?

Is it someone from your childhood, or possibly someone from high school or college?

Did you meet your best friend at church, or on the job?

When you have a true friend, you don’t have to worry about competing with him or her.

There should be no competition, because you want the absolute best for them – and you know they want the same for you.

You can share your hopes and dreams without fear; cheer them on as they reach for success.

There’s no competition, because “they got you” – and you have them.

#57| Sweet Mystery

February 26, 2015 By Michelle Matthews-Calloway Leave a Comment

shareasimageBrendaT57F

Do any areas of your life remain a mystery?

Is there any part that you reserve and keep to yourself?

I dare say we all do, that within each of us is a realm of mystery waiting to be discovered . . . unlocked . . . explored . . . .

A sweet mystery.

Today, be sure to take some time for you. Time to think, reflect, refocus and center on you.

Sweet, mysterious, beautiful, you.
