 At first this page was just for me to write my thoughts, suggestions, recommendations, to give another point of view, or to share the knowledge I have acquired. Over the past couple of months my writing has changed as well as my focus! When first asked what would I call my website by my mom I just blurted out "living for a better you." What I did not notice was the fact that I had just crammed in my whole philosophy on life into 5 simple words! Living for a better YOU is what it is all about! It is a movement to do something good for yourself so in exchange you can do something good for someone else! Sometimes words are not enough and we need to spring into action! It either being for ourselves, our children, our grandchildren either way we are planting seeds with our actions which will hopefully carry over for centuries to come! Let me tell you that over the past couple of months suicide has become a subject very often brought up and unfortunately a couple of people I have personally known have fallen to this trend. Let me tell you something I Am SICK OF IT! I can't stand to think that maybe if they would have taken an interest in their life or understood that everyday is a blessing than maybe they would still be here! We all have the power to impact peoples thoughts and any action has a reaction! Living for a better you is Preventive Medicine! We are here to to promote positive thoughts, and actions in order to get positive reactions! We want to fix the problem before it even has time to spring up. I want to help influence the people around me to create a stronger community one united under love for each and every individual! We are all unique in every which way and there will be never another one of you or me and I believe that is worth fighting for! I believe that every life saved is a miracle! A simple gesture like helping someone when their books have been knocked down and befriending that person can save a life...it has before! Join us on our movement towards success: the ongoing process of bettering oneself! Remember that success is in the journey not in the results. There is no failure just results! I do not know about you all but I have found enough ways on how not to do things right that it is about time I implemented these things into my life. I am going to ask for your support as I will support you on your effort to Live For a Better You! Which reaction will hopefully will bring us a Better Tommorow! "Don't let the negativity given to you by the world disempower you. Instead give to yourself that which empowers you." - Les Brown |
