“ You don’t lose your balance unless your life is out of balance.” ~ Arthur Smalls, jazz cat musician
Well, friends, it’s been a whole month since 2012 rang her bell with a promise to bring “change” into your lives. And so I ask, candidly…is anything different? If the answer is YES, and it’s deeper than simply a new brand of toothpaste, then I congratulate you! Keep it up! Now, if you answer NO, or have found yourself brewing in a mindbog of uncertainty, apathy, frustration or desperation, perhaps you take some time to assess your terrain to see the real culprit weeds that are tangling you up… and then reread my ditty on January 9th. Just a suggestion. ~KD Shop SOAPBOX® products & SUBSCRIBE to FREE ! “Pure Soapbox” book and audiobook available. A portion of the proceeds of all book sales is donated to charity.

“Empty pockets never held anyone back. Only empty heads and empty hearts can do that.”
~ Norman Vincent Peale, minister & author
Give me an “R“! Give me an “E“! Give me an “C“! Give me an “E“! Give me an “S“! Another “S“
…and an “I-O-N“! What’s that spell??
OPPORTUNITY!
I’m not blowing sunshine, folks. Just stating the facts. Millions upon millions of people had or have it worse than you in their financial lifetimes. Yup, the sound of two pennies rubbing together has echoed in their sensitive ears, startled their hearts, and rattled their once-unshakable foundations. Yet of those countless, there is a glowing population of do-ers who refused to let their lack of green create a life of blues.
With relentlessly determined minds and passionately beating hearts, these folks chose to believe in themselves enough to find OPPORTUNITY amidst tragedy. Opportunity disguised as spending time with family and friends, learning a new trade, receiving help from neighbors, turning a hobby into a small business, becoming disciplined and free from wants, and strengthening one’s faith.
Our country’s current reality doesn’t need to dictate, dump-on or destroy your future-perfect! Rethink what you’re doing wrong and what you could be doing right… with your mind and spirit… and your perspective can indeed change to reveal perhaps that the best damn POSSIBILITIES are right in front of you.

“Remember, the light at the end of the tunnel may be you.” ~ Steven Tyler, musician & wordsmith Cheers to 2012 for all who fall upon this little ditty and drink it in with celebration! Tis just one day past yesterday, which is no different from the day before. And if it weren’t for calendars, Hallmark, and Dick Clark, January 1st would feel just the same, year after year. That is, unless you take on the aerobic challenge of changing one thing. No, not your toothpaste, nor your weight, job, bad habits, zip code, or last name. Nope. That omnipotent, omnipresent, blessed thing called your perspective. I beckon you to sweat it out until you shift your outlook to see that YOU indeed are the light in your own life. YOU have the real answers to your questions, the solutions to your problems, and the intrinsic brilliance to your extinguish your darkness. Quick fixes, shiny new toys and winning lottery tickets are meaningless if you still think you’re your own dilemma. So, this is my wish and prayer for you, folks. That you remove the bushel to reveal your golden glow for your own optimism and opportunity… day after week after year. Just imagine if we all took to beaming our gifts to create peace and joy with domino effect. What a world this would be. Isn’t that right, John? ~KD

“Life begins at the end of your comfort zone.” ~N.D. Walsch, authorI don’t know about you, but if this premise rings true, then many of you can identify this past year (let alone the past five!), as a time in which you have truly lived. It seems that as we careen forward into our collective 21st century future, our boundaries of ease, familiarity and honest-to-goodness comfort are severely truncated, causing us to freak out, freeze up, fumble, fail and fight back tears. Proudly acknowledge though that you have also strived and survived the confounded labyrinth of potholes and prop doors. And with mosaic-ed prayer and possibility in hand, you have deciphered the message to unfold an irrefutably timeless and timely fact: Training wheels are meant to be taken off. So, as I take my place at the helm of this little ditty, I say, “Comfort, shmomfort.” Roll up your sleeves, toss on a helmet, kick up the stand, and pop a wheelie down the open road of adventure. Start the coming blessed year with the wind in your face and your hair on fire and see where the journey takes you! ~ KD
