Do It Anyway
The Paradoxical Commandments
By Kent M. Keith
People are illogical, unreasonable, and self-centered.
Love them anyway.
If you do good, people will accuse you of selfish ulterior motives.
Do good anyway.
If you are successful, you win false friends and true enemies.
Succeed anyway.
The good you do today will be forgotten tomorrow.
Do good anyway.
Honesty and frankness make you vulnerable.
Be honest and frank anyway.
The biggest men and women with the biggest ideas can be shot down by the smallest men and women with the smallest minds.
Think big anyway.
People favor the underdogs but follow only the top dogs.
Fight for a few of the underdogs anyway.
What you spend years building may be destroyed overnight.
Build anyway.
People really need help but may attack you if you do help them.
Help people anyway.
Give the world the best you have and you'll get kicked in the teeth.
Give the world the best you have anyway.

In wood turning class I did a serious of dumb moves which lead to wood spinning off of the lathe. It flew back and hit me in the arm causing a small cut. I am now thinking about turning pens!
Just put up a little story called, "I was shy then".
I love having the time these days to enjoy life and see the simple things. Ck out my new LittleBird movie. I made it using iMovie. You'll need quicktime to see it. If you are still not hooked up to a very fast cable modem it will take a moment to load. Check out getting a cable modem. It's soooooo fast. No waiting to load!

Yesterday, I attended the Guardian Angels, luncheon. The Guardian Angels are a group of people who gather resources and inspiration for the Anaheim Memorial Medical Center. The luncheon was to raise funding for a Billy Bed for the new born baby department. I probably didn't say that just right! Anyway, I am on the Anaheim Memorial Center Foundation board and I really believe that this non-profit hospital is very special. It's outreach to the community and loving staff of doctors and nurses make this one of the best hospitals around. I met several new friends. One of them was Kay. Kay, told me how she put together a family reunion. It took three years but it was very successful. She also told me about Reunion Magazine (http://www.reunionsmag.com/). Think I'll try to put together one for my new family. (see (My lost family Category in left column)

My good friend Sheffra's husband, Eugene, died this passed week. After attending his funeral I thought about Sheffra's words. She said that without the community she has surrounded herself with, she would have had a hard time coping. The church was full of loved ones. She brought his artwork and poems and pictures of his life so everyone could learn and touch his life. I still hear the music, Looking for me in Rainbows by Vicky Brown.
It was a moving experience. I love you Sheffra and Bronson.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JAMES!
That's my boy! 37 years old and still growing!

Okay, so I have to tell you what just happened! My husband and I decided to take a drive. I was driving down the street in the slow lane, I turned on my left hand turn signal to move to the left lane, I looked and there was a car way back there and plenty of room for me to turn into that lane. Well, about half way through the turn two teenage girls, one on cell phone. Sped up behind me and started to honk. Not just honk but stayed on the horn for the just about entire light. I just looked out my rear view mirror and smiled. The young girl driving looked back very upset and just kept pressing the horn. The other girl gave me the finger.
All of a sudden I saw a police car pull up beside her and begin to really verbal work her over for honking. Then the light changed. We all moved forward and at the next light the police officer pulled up beside her car again and worked her over some more! Don't you just love the police! I just kept smiling through out the whole thing. Everything just took care of itself. I hope it slowed her down some but I doubt it. But it sure made my day! Justice prevailed!

Today I downloaded Earthbrowser and took a trip around the world! The earth spins and you can pick out a web cam from many locations around the world. It's amazing! Try it at:

This was a good week for me. Lots of board meetings. Leadership Anaheim is one of the boards I serve on. We teach the community about the community they live in. It's a very rewarding board. If you want to give back to your community join the Leadership board of your town. Also, I am on the WIB (Workforce Investment Board). This organization lets me use my skills and expertise in the local economic workforce. Also, the Anaheim Memorial Medical Center board, the only Non-Profit hospital in Anaheim.
Today was the Good Friday Prayer Breakfast for the YMCA (I'm on that board too). It was great! 800 people or more. Community leaders and friends came together to hear Kent M. Keith speak. You know who he is? He is the one who wrote Do It Anyway, The Paradoxical Commandments. He did this when he was 19. Some people think Mother Teresa wrote them but she had them hanging on the wall in her center. Very good speaker.
