Thank you and Pay it Forward

Hey Everybody, I got a challenge over November and December for each of you with a story behind it. This morning I was going thru the drive thru at McDonalds in Salem and to my awe....the BLACK ALTIMA in front of me had paid for my food. When I asked the lady at the window if she was sure....she just smiled and said its paid for. I don't know who the person was but thanks to their generosity i am

asking my friends, family and acquaintances to help me pay a forward. I challenge you all to do something nice for someone else. Big or little it doesn't matter. ITS THE GESTURE OF CARING ABOUT ANOTHER! YOU NEVER KNOW HOW YOUR GENEROSITY WILL EFFECT THOSE AROUND YOU! LETS START A CHAIN REACTION IN SALEM AND AROUND THE AREA! IF YOU FEEL THE CHALLENGE....START IT IN YOUR AREA! TELL MY STORY, TELL OTHERS STORIES! If you can pay it forward secretively then that makes it all the better but if you cant.....its a pay it forward still! Call it a Christmas gift if you will! Many of us are hurting right now, emotionally, financially and some physically. Make your pay it forward count and come back and tell us about it! Dont say to who or exactly where. Just talk about the gestures you made. THANK YOU TO THE PERSON IN THE BLACK ALTIMA! I ACTUALLY CRIED TEARS OF HAPPINESS OVER WHAT YOU DID! NOW, LETS ALL GET OUT THERE AND DO SOMETHING! BRING US BACK A STORY! SOMEBODY, NEAR OR FAR ARE IN NEED OF YOUR PAY IT FORWARD! GIVE A LITTLE AND GOD BLESS! ...............I CANT WAIT TO HEAR SOME STORIES!

Two things

Two things I am thankful for since I missed day one.....: 1: my son and daughter in law! I love them very much and all though life can be a little hard and tough sometimes..just knowing that they are there and a part of my life....gives me great strength and lots of love. They are a huge blessing to my heart! 2: Joes girls Gwen and Jozie...I cant imagine my life without them and they teach me knew lessons about the world and ways to exist in it that I treasure! Steven, Nikki, Gwen and Jozie..I love all four of you very much and I am very thankful that God blessed my life with all of your footprints on my soul. YOu make me a better person with each new day! :)

Family Tradition

So...new day, new motivation...so much family tradition beginning and so much to pass down to the next generation....but while you are teaching...just remember the real reason that Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas are so fun and heart warming.....Its called family and learning to appreciate each other. God put us all together for a reason. Take the best parts and pass those memories down to t
he next generation but remember..little ears are always open so for the stories that are not so glorifying and we cant help but remember them....make sure the little ones are asleep or at a very good distance. Some stories are not meant to be repeated for years to come. Mistakes are exactly that...MISTAKES...teach them to appreciate the person for who they are presently...not for what they may have been on not such a good day or part of their life. Pass down a tradition of happiness not one of being judgmental! Little ears do listen when we least expect it!

I'm a cashier at store 1883 and feel like I need to share this story. Tonight at the end of my shift I shut my light off and started ringing out my last customers of the day. They where a young married couple in their early 20's with an infant girl. As I was scanning their items a man starts to come in my line asking if I was closed. As much as I just wanted to go home I said yes but ill take you. He thanked me and waited patiently while the husband and wife tried different cards to pay for their groceries, diapers, and other baby items. Decline after decline the women was visibly shaken. As they started to go through their bags to put stuff back the man stepped up to the debit reader and swiped his card. They didn't even realize until I handed them the receipt and said he just paid for it for you. They where in complete shock, the wife teared up while thanking him as the husband shook his hand and thanked him. I also teared up and told him what a wonderful man he was and that was the nicest thing I have ever seen. Instead of taking credit His response was that I had made it happen for letting him check out at my register after I was closed. What an awesome selfless person, an angel on earth!!

A Gift, not a privelege

Today's a day of blessing just like any other except....sometimes you have to remember to appreciate what you do have and realize......that each new day....is a gift...not a privilege. So take the best parts of it with you in your thoughts.....tomorrow....you may not get this gift again! So, make it be worth something....even in the worst of your day!......

Educate

Priceless thought! Value your child enough to teach them to value life. Being human is one of the greatest gifts of life! Dont loss your human touch!

Love of a Child
Rayne Issac
The love between a mother and a child bears no boundaries. To see the way a mothers life disappears as she looks upon her child with so much love and pride to have him in her arms. To think of all the future holds and how this little beautiful boy already depends on her for every moment of his life. He is so content with no tears only breaths of safety and a look of security beams from him as he is snuggled away in his mothers arms. Others look upon them and smile so brightly because mothers who have come before her.....we know that the child in her arms....makes her complete. This is a mother who will protect and love her child for all eternity! She has found her growth, her strength and her future!
