serve, smile, learn and do

ofttimes when I don't feel like I can tell people things in person, I write them down. When I was about 17 I wrote a story for my mom to explain how I was feeling... it's kind of weird so I won't post it here, but in it I wrote 4 things that I needed to do to help resolve my feelings of despair and being totally overwhelmed with everything!

SERVE until you feel like dropping
SMILE when you feel like crying
LEARN something when your brain feels groggy
DO something when you feel like stopping

SERVE, SMILE, LEARN, and DO
are such great things to keep in mind as we go
throughout the day, week, months and years!!
