Nature never repeats herself,
and the possibilities of one human soul
will never be found in another.

I've come to believe
that each of us has a personal calling
that's as unique as a fingerprint-
-and that the best way to succeed
is to discover what you love
and then find a way to offer it to others
in the form of service, working hard, and
also allowing the energy of the universe to lead you.
-Oprah Winfrey, submitted by Marilyn F., Lincoln NE

This week found me in the fabulous Pacific Northwest to spend Columbus Day with Lacamas Community Credit Union and then a few days at a meeting of YMCA professionals. It was fun to connect with two groups who are helping people in substantial and distinct ways: the credit union assisting members with the financial parts of their lives, and the YMCA folks who are busy growing healthy kids, families, & communities.

It turns out that each of us has a fantastically individual contribution to create, and just in case you have forgotten: the world really is a better place because YOU are in it! Your efforts at work, school, home, or somewhere else are appreciated by others who may or may not have mentioned it.

So I dare you: spend 30 seconds accepting and appreciating your SOUL POSSIBILITIES, and then take 30 seconds to let someone else know you value their contribution to your world.

Peace,
Paul
