So my youngest daughter Carrie and her girlfriends started a band and I thought… what a great excuse for a dish to pass (potluck) dinner! I invited her band mates and parents over for this coming Saturday and we will all enjoy a lovely dinner together. (You all know that eating is my favorite hobby, so any excuse is a good one to have a dinner party!) Everyone will bring a dish to share with others and I think I will make lasagna. Have a potluck dinner for no reason, or use any excuse/reason you want but invite over the friends, enjoy the feast and Live Inspired Now!

The greatest minds in the history of the world knew that we have the power within us to change the world, we have the power to rise above our circumstances and we have the power to negate what’s wrong in the world. Not by fighting it, but by focusing on what is right in the world. Today, focus on the things that are good, kind, beautiful, helpful or inspiring and Live Inspired Now!

Here in Upstate, NY it has started to get cooler. We have cold nights and mornings now, which I LOVE because it means Fall is nearly here! (My FAVORITE season!!) Last night when I got home, I baked TONS of chocolate chip oatmeal cookies which warmed up the kitchen and made the house smell delicious! The kids were all excited about homemade cookies for dessert and it felt great to bake again. (I don’t bake in the Summer, too hot!) So today, warm the hearts in your home with some fresh baked goods and Live Inspired Now!

When you speak, say what you mean. Don’t tip toe around things, don’t be passive aggressive, if you have something to say, just say it! Also, avoid backhanded compliments, they don’t make people feel good, if you going to compliment, just pay the compliment without throwing in a negation. People like people who say what they mean and mean what they say! Kids especially need the “mean what you say” part. If you tell them there will be consequences for a certain behavior, be sure to follow through so they will know you mean what you say. So today, listen to what you are saying, be clear and follow through and Live Inspired Now!

You never know what another person is feeling or experiencing. When we offer kindness to someone, it might completely alter their day. They might turn their attitude around, they might get a renewed sense of life, they may re-pay the kindness or it just might make them smile! So today, compliment a complete stranger, offer them kindness without expecting to gain anything and Live Inspired Now!
