An Open Invitation





An Open Invitation





"Opportunities come to us every day, but often we don’t recognize them. We get invitations to social parties, networking events but we’re too tired or lazy to respond or we choose not to attend. Who knows, we could have missed the chance of a lifetime. We’re distracted by social media, job pressures, family matters, and our to do lists to the point it’s difficult to focus on what’s going around us that we fail to acknowledge the little things that keeps us grounded and brings the most joy. We miss out on opportunities to create new relationships and explore different things because we’re too busy. Today, I will say yes to the invitation I received, start planning for a brighter future and explore other opportunities."

Thanksgiving "Thanksgiving isn’t just about celebrating a traditional holiday. It’s about giving thanks to God and being grateful. Each day take the opportunity to enjoy life, have fun, breathe, smile, laugh and help someone less fortunate. Make an investment to wish someone happiness, good health, prosperity, and success. Most of all take time to look around and notice how blessed you are."                                                                                 -Darlena Swann
