Inspiration.

Now that my kids have their Wii set up in their bedroom, I can actually turn the TV on something other than cartoons.  It's amazing.  I can watch the news! 


Anyway, I was letting the baby watch PBS for a little bit "Bob the Builder" - or something similar was on - I wasn't paying attention like he was - and I started some rocks for a "Make your own Pet  Rock Monster" crafting idea for Summerfest in South Charleston in August (3rd-5th).


Apparently, the show that he was watching had gone off and some 80 year old man was talking about agriculture.  I was clearly not very interested in this topic, but my hands very covered in paint so I just left it on when the baby went to play with his brothers (he was just as uninterested as I was apparently).


 But, for some reason I stopped painting and looked up at the screen for a moment.  This is what I heard (something similar anyway):


                                 Do something that you LOVE to do.  Do something that you would and do, do for FREE.  That way, once you get really good at it, you will make money and lots of it and be HAPPY.


All I can say about that is WOW!


I think that is an amazing way to look at things.  This applies to charity work, painting, baking, cooking, writing, traveling, whatever you love to do!  I hope that one day I can eventually pay some of my lovely ladies in the group because they do work so hard for such great causes.


I just wanted to share this  because I think that it is really inspiring and I hope that everyone takes it to heart.  Do what you love and what makes you happy.  Happiness, love, and compassion is really what makes the world go round - not always money.
