One of the biggest discoveries that I have discovered on my road of personal growth is that you’ve got to give to get.
Here is a story that highlights the power of giving.
“Many years ago, when I worked as a volunteer at a hospital, I got to know a little girl named Liz who was suffering from a rare and serious disease. Her only chance of recovery appeared to be a blood transfusion from her 5-year old brother, who had miraculously survived the same disease and had developed the antibodies needed to combat the illness.

I would like to continue on with another example that I have come across which teaches the lessons that life can share and that we can learn and grow from.
“In the days when an ice cream sundae cost much less, a 10 year old boy entered a hotel coffee shop and sat at a table. A waitress put a glass of water in front of him.
“How much is an ice cream sundae?” he asked.

Today I want to share a story that I have recently come across, during my personal growth reading and I don’t know if this is true or not or who wrote it but I got a message when I read it – I’ll share my message after the story.
“Pickup in the Rain
One night, at 11:30 PM, an older African-American woman was standing on the side of an Alabama highway trying to endure a lashing rainstorm. Her car had broken down and she desperately needed a ride. Soaking wet, she decided to flag down the next car.

Let me ask you a quick question – are you grateful ?
You know what I mean do you start the day, or take time out during your busy day, to stop and be grateful?
Do you experience gratitude and joy in your life every day?

Today as part of my personal growth and self development I have decided to do some brain exercises.
Sometimes I find it’s not just enough to listen or read but that I actually need to take the time to think about what I am studying. So I’d like to share with you the situation that I am exercising by thinking about.
Would you consider a person lucky if they worked at their job for 20, 30 or even 40 years, carefully saving their money investing it wisely and then taking a round the world trip are retiring to a tropical paradise? Isn’t it surprising how many times you will hear people say “wow they are so lucky” when talking about someone who made the choice of “slave and save” to have the things that were important to them and that they wanted.
Maybe you’ve heard yourself saying this either inside your head arm maybe just out loud. If you have I’d like you to think about the implications of this.

In 1914, Congress passed legislation designating the second Sunday in May as Mother’s Day.
The first Mother’s Day ceremonial was a church service in 1908 organized by Anna Jarvis, of Philadelphia, to honor her deceased mother. Anna, had heard her mother express hope that a day to honor all mothers would be established – so she took action.
History shows that in the British Isles and Celtic Europe there was a festival called the “Spring Mother’s Day” which celebrated the honor of the Goddess Brigid. However, these festivals are totally different from the present Mother’s Day in that they celebrated the concept of motherhood rather than giving honor and respect to mothers.
Mother’s Day is a celebration of womanhood, when we celebrate not only the involvement that a mother makes within her family by nurturing her children but also the contribution she makes to the society at large. Because of our mother we are perfectly grown-up. A mother takes us under her protection right from the moment we are conceived. She feeds us, cleans us and teaches us to walk, talk and play.
