MIAGD: make it a great day 

In ten minutes, my 2016 Summer vacation comes to its official end. 

It actually ended yesterday, but Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays are my long days of 14-15 hours. 

I have three semi-major backyard projects that never got touched this past week.  The house is untidy, I’ve not swept since the week before my vacation began, my study, which I planned to organize over this break is still in slight disarray, and I’m heading into this week feeling behind in everything. 

I’ve always told my students and musical casts:

1. If you see someone without a smile share your best smile
2. If you see someone who needs a hug, share one of your best hugs
3. If you see someone without any color in their life, share your best, unbroken crayons

Sometimes, those who are hurting the most, know how to get the most, just like the boy in this video clip.  The video, while heartbreaking, is quite uplifting, and offers a better message than I ever could through a blog post.

Make it a great day, Folks, and smile as much as you can.
