E.A.G.E.R. for a Change of Heart!

As we approach another Thanksgiving Day, let us all remember what we are thankful for and for the many persons who make us thankful. As we reflect on all of the many friends, acquaintances, and strangers that we have encountered during 2014, hopefully, we will remember the unsung heroes, the people behind the scenes, and the forgotten who have touched our lives in a special way.  In Giving Thanks for the multiple human resources in our work environments, in our social encounters, in our faith gatherings, and in the "Angels" who made a difference in our lives, let our Thanks be sincere, genuine, authentic, and honest as we assess our humble accomplishments.

Respect for ourselves and respect for others makes the difference in providing a peaceful environment to replace the negative influences that get all of the headlines.  We Earn Respect by living a truthful life rather than a hypocrite's approach of taking credit for all the good that makes the headlines.  Earning Respect means respecting ourselves as a human being capable of learning  and re-learning how to make a different in our everyday lives.  "Love one another as I have loved you" is a rallying call to arms to avoid negative attitudes about age, race, gender, disabilities, dependency, national origins, and other unique characteristics.
Giving Respect follows the positive approach with positive attitudes, positive aptitudes, and positive altitudes.

If we are looking for Change, the Change must begin with ourselves and how we deal with Change.  Change for the sake of Change is no Change at all!  "God grant us the serenity to accept the things we cannot CHANGE, the Courage to CHANGE the things we can, and the WISDOM to know the difference." The Cause and Effect of every decision that is made today will impact the future avalanche of lifelong learning for all human beings.  We must continue to respect the history of the past to learn what may be necessary to change the efforts for the future.  Learning is ongoing and lifelong.  Learning is an evolution of thinking and decisions  on sound principles that respect the natural law as well as the divine law.  Spiritual and Cultural Traditions are to be respected rather than given a date stamped as outmoded and therefore discarded.

Every day is a change for the better or for the worst depending upon the human influences based on history and traditions.  Human life is a continuum from natural conception to natural death for ALL human beings.
How we handle change today is our barometer for the future.  "Today is the tomorrow that we thought about yesterday." Yes, we are E.A.G.E.R. for a Change of Heart!  Yes, we are encouraged and empowered to Earn And Give Everyone Respect for a Change of Heart!  Will you accept the challenge of today's call to Change your attitudes that reflect unselfishness that really matters in bringing out ultimate Change that has its origin in the Divine.  Let us learn in the College of Hard Knocks, in the University of Experience, in the classrooms without walls, and in the atmospheres of positive human relationships.  Change is up to YOU!
