Joy is possible where ever and whenever you are. You just have to catch it. There’s a story that’s been making the rounds on the internet. It’s about an experiment conducted by the Washington Post. You may have heard this story before… Continue reading » Finding Joy Photo credit: soukup
Do you work like a dog? When we use that phrase, we often mean that we’re working really, really hard… and not necessarily feeling good about it. Have you ever watched a dog work? It truly is a sight to behold. Dogs work with such dedication and focus that they often put us to shame. Watch any service dog. Their focus is on the person that they are serving. They don’t get bored. There’s never a thought that the person isn’t good enough for them. They serve with their whole hearts. Some dogs even volunteer.
