You Matter

You matter

• When you love the work you do and the people you do it with, you matter.
• When you are so gracious and generous and aware that you think of other people before yourself, you matter.
• When you leave the world a better place than you found it, you matter.
• When you continue to raise the bar on what you do and how you do it, you matter.
• When you teach and forgive and teach more before you rush to judge and demean, you matter.
• When you touch the people in your life through your actions (and your words), you matter.
• When kids grow up wanting to be you, you matter.
• When you see the world as it is, but insist on making it more like it could be, you matter.
• When you inspire a Nobel prize winner or a slum dweller, you matter.
• When the room brightens when you walk in, you matter.
• And when the legacy you leave behind lasts for hours, days or a lifetime, you matter.

I found the above reminder on Seth Godin's blog and think it is just great. A perfect little pick-me-up and inspiration for a Monday morning. It's important to remember that you matter! And you! And you! And you too!

Oh yea, and I watched The Bucket List with my sister this weekend. It was a cute movie with a good message that fits right in with this post. Jack Nicholson + Morgan Freeman are such great actors. Check it out if you haven't!
