Change is always for Positive Reasons

It was time for a change and I am happy to say I found my niche. The buh buh buh buh buh which really means in translation. I had a hard day and these things are to vile, I wouldn't even want to do them. I am sure you and myself included, want to be doing other things. I choose to be wanting to be creating awesome fun for my readers. But, that dreary thing called work gets in the way of all my good deeds. Now, if you haven't seen the movie overboard, you got to see the movie. If you haven't seen the movie, I posted it here, so get a look see. Great movie released in 1987.

So I beg you to think of change more positively. When we say “This is a game changer,” that connotes something good and positive. And yes, it’s okay to “change” your mind.

Using letters in your articles

rdinarily I like to start with a elaborate detailed photo of my topic, as my grand entrance to my article. But this is, going to be the topic of using letters. This was a wonderful way, back in story book days. Then, why can't it work for an article now. I used to love to see the beginning of the story book starting with

nce upon a time, just brings me back so many memories of the story telling of fables. It brings fantasy and magic to the pages. I still like to implement this now. With the romantic letter to lure you into a story of happiness, romance, the importance of a subject, or even cues in to a special topic that inspires the reader.

Make sure you are using a single letter to start the beginning of your sentence to add that touch of elegance. Not a monogram using more that one letter. Knowing that we are in a text savvy world, still means use full sentence and full words to write. These helps all people to understand of all walks of life. We are looking at this for beauty not shorthand. There is so many types of fonts on the Computer that can complement your piece or you can create a letter in a program. I use different programs like paint.

Life Happens and it's Funny or Not but, it's life

There is a time to Laugh and knowledge is Power

Life Happens and it Funny or Not but, it's Life

I recently ran across an article that had to make you laugh. Through life stage's of achievement which some people are able to by pass. But, the truth is that the majority of people fall in this category.

First as a child you have all kinds of time to have fun , lots of energy to do them but limited resources to accomplish the things you like.

Next you become the responsible adult with a working income to afford the things in life, energy to accomplish what you put your mind to. Yet, you time is mismanaged and not used correctly to create the happy ending you expect.

Then Old age happens. in an instant, that time got you here, which now you having nothing buy time on your hand , you retire with a little savings that perhaps will let you have a little fun or vacations, Until you realize you have no energy to do it.

What a big laugh , that now I think I got life good. you tell me this.

What do you have to say about that.
