For our tribe of 27,165 busy people who share encouragement and gratitude.

PEBBLE:
What looks like adversity now will only become
the architecture of grand legend later.

BOULDER:
We cannot change our past.
We cannot change the fact
that people act in a certain way.
We cannot change the inevitable.
The only thing we can do is play
the one string we have,
and that is our attitude.
-Charles R. Swindoll, submitted by JU, Mt. Pleasant MI

PONDER:
If your day (or week/semester/job/life) is not going well, that just
stinks. And while I unfortunately cannot wave a magic wand to eliminate the
poopy stuff and replace it with roses, I CAN give you a gentle nudge to see
if you can hang in there one more day.

This week's pebble suggests your current difficulty will eventually be a
trophy on your shelf; something you may not have ENJOYED enduring, but that
you are proud you conquered.

You are, by the way, doing something right. How do I know? Because you
made it to today. RIGHT ON! Take a few deep breaths, go in a closet and
scream for a minute if you need to, and then come out ready to take action
to improve your day/week/semester/job/life.

Peace,
Paul
