Sign of the Week – July 4th

Challenges, Family, Learning, Sign of the Week, Writing, , , , ,

Happy Independence Day! Or if you are not from the United States, Happy Fourth of July.

I found this week’s sign on the way home from volunteering at Loaves and Fishes this past Monday night. Monday night is a regular night for me and I look forward to seeing some of the regular clients who rely on us to help them make ends meet. I know I am making a difference and helping those who need help get the help they need.

Tuesday morning I got the Quote of the Day from the folks at Pass It On dot org.

I came across the organization (The Foundation for a Better Life) years before the blog and I remember writing about them in the infancy days of Making the Days Count dot org. In June 2010, I wrote a post and remember talking to my mom about it. A couple of weeks while repairing a blog posts from the early days (first month) of the blog I came across this post…. Day 25 – Patience. And I read it again. I finished repairing a few more – the posts with broken links or photos that didn’t display. In those infancy days, I didn’t have many readers other than my mom or my wife. I came across a comment from my mom and it was good to hear her voice. I miss it very much.

Sometimes you need a good sign to get you thinking. I hope you see a sign, or find one, today that speaks to you and reminds you, that you are doing a right things with your life.

Today is going to be an amazing day, I know it and I can feel it. So, I’d better jump up, jump in, and seize the day. Making the Days Count, one day at a time, especially special days like today.

What is going to make your day special?

    2. Amy, you are welcome. My mom was thrifty because she had to be with three boys after my dad left, but she taught us the value of loaves and fishes, I suppose that is how I found myself there. Enjoy your weekend.

    1. Thank you Margaret, I never imagined that five and half years after my first shift, I’d be where I am with the organization. It’s my audition for retirement! I get more than I give. have a fabulous weekend.

      1. That’s the way with volunteering. It’s a privilege, especially for you, I guess, doing something so very worthwhile. You too Clay! Happy Weekend. I’m volunteering at Ripon’s Theatre Festival this weekend. Great fun!

Thanks for visiting MtDC. How are YOU Making YOUR Days Count?
