The one thing all warring countries seem to have in common...is the love for their children. I can't help but think that if we could ALL tap into the emotion of this video, nobody would ever pick up a gun again.
Enjoy!
I am often accused of being an eternal optimist. I actually take it as a compliment. The intention of this blog will be to share the GOOD things that are happening in our world and try to stay clear of negativity and judgment. I'm hoping you choose to follow along and that this site will help put a smile on your faces and the positivity will manifest into your lives. The best part of being an eternal optimist is that your optimism...is eternal.

Perspective
It's easy to let the stress of our days as responsible adults bog us down.
I'm in the process of launching a successful start-up business and dealing with the ebb and flow of both personal and business finances, incredible deadlines, very long work hours that deny me the time I wish I could spend with my family, pressure to deliver, planning for our company's growth while keeping an eye on my blood pressure...on top of keeping up with the needs of our kids at home and striving to provide for them while instilling the right life values. Geez, that's a lot!
So when my wife calls me in tears I stop working and prepare to deal with whatever the issue is.
In this case it was the report card of our grade one daughter. But the tears...were of joy.
"She is a role model of kindness and empathy to others".
All is right in the world.
