A Tail Waggin Way Of A Blessing December 3, 2011 – Posted by justinbieber
Last week, I was out getting the mail and noticed a dog crossing the street that looked oddly familiar. I went near the dog to see if it had a tag or if I recognized it to see if I could find the owner. When I got close to the dog, I realized that that same dog was the dog that my neighbors had lost 4 years ago.

A few months ago, these neighbors moved out of my neighborhood, but that wasnt going to stop me finding them! I remebered they moved to Minnesotta. I spent the rest of the day searching all of the people with their last name in the Minnesotta area. Finally when I was starting to give up hope, I called te last number. I couldnt’ believe it, it was them!

I told them of how I found their dog that went missing 4 years ago..They thought it was to good to come true. They immediately flew down to Florida to re-unite with their dog, and were absolutly shocked. They told me God has answered their prayers. They offered me a fairly large reward, and even though I really needed the money. I said no. Seeing the happy faces of them with their dog was as rewarding as it could get.!

Assuming Value Everywhere

Your assumptions are your windows on the world. Scrub them off every once in awhile, or the light won’t come in. — Alan Alda

~~~~ Tip of the Day: “I noticed that there was one kid who no one was really talking to. He had a serious kind of disability, and some of the kids were kinda scared to approach him. So I went up and introduced myself. And you know what? He taught me some amazing dance moves!” Sharing his presence was a wonderful thing to do, in and of itself, but my 14-yr-old cousin’s perspective was even more remarkable. We asked him, “What if he wasn’t able to teach you anything? Would you still have done it?” “Well, everyone is good at something. You just have to listen long enough.” A profound lesson coming from an early teen: Assume value everywhere. In orienting ourselves in this way, we take responsibility for tuning in to what others offer, and open ourselves to other perspectives. This thought-provoking piece, originally from Parabola Magazine, shares further. http://premiere.whatcounts.com/t?ctl=169E802:C3009629A010612C3A39300C6B3DC187B4B847859706E37D&

~~~~ Be The Change: Broaden your own assumptions today: assume value somewhere you don’t generally look.
