I Have a Challenge For You Today, by Audrey Jeanne Roberts

Is there someone who has been a blessing to you that you need to say, "Thank you" to?  Is there someone that is a sweet and calming presence in your family?  Have you been meaning to tell a friend what her friendship means to you (on no special occasion or Birthday so it’s especially meaningful?)   I want to challenge you today, to make a call, write a letter, send a card or an email to two or three people who make your life a better, more cheerful place.

I declare today is "Special Person Appreciation Day."  Too often, we get caught up in the day-to-day affairs of life and forget to say "Thanks," "You’re Special," or "Having you in my life means so much to me."  The older I get, the more I know that if you think it you must take time to say it — because sometimes you don’t get another chance.

Those of you who have an expensive graphics addiction (you KNOW WHO YOU ARE !)  Today’s the day to make a card and send it to everyone you can think of who’s touched your life and made it a brighter place with the light of their smiles!  Make one card and change the words for each person.  You won’t believe how much joy your thoughtfulness will bring to them.  Sunshine and cheer is catching you know.  Appreciation that is communicated clearly and publically means soooooo much to those who receive it!   And when you finish, write or say, "Tag, you’re it!  You get to pass it on to someone else that YOU appreciate!"

I’m sending my appreciation and thanks to all of you (about 500 visitors a day) that come here and encourage ME!  I am fast approaching my 200th post (boy I sure do talk a lot!)  I have grown so much since I started this blog and you have caused me to think things through so that I could express them clearly enough to share the thoughts with all of you… I am so thankful I have each of you in my life.  Happy Special Person Appreciation Day!  TAG YOU’RE IT!!!!!

THE PROVERB OF THE DAY:  Proverbs 24:3-6  "A house is built by wisdom and becomes strong through good sense.  Through knowledge its rooms are filled with all sorts of precious riches and valuables.  A wise man is mightier than a strong man, and a man of knowledge is more powerful than a strong man.  So don’t go to war without wise guidance; victory depends on having many counselors."
