Good Morning! See we all made it! Now the weekend is here for us to enjoy. Well at least for some of us. Good luck for all those bowling in the 199 United All Stars Tournament. Hats off to Benny and Aida, that is really hard work. Well a busy day lays ahead of me. No sun unfortunately. That's ok I will have my music and that is enough to keep me going.
I have a question for all of you. Have you ever done something totally sporadic and random that made someone's day? If you haven't maybe you should. I bought a bunch of tickets for Ravinia. One that stood out was John Legend. I told one of the stylist's at the salon about it and she said how much she loved him. Well I had quite a few, not knowing who was all going, so I came home grabbed 2 tickets and ran back. This was last Saturday. She took my hand and squeezed it hard and said thank you, you made my mothers day. Those are the days I love. The days I crave next to being a savvy business woman! I think if people tried it more and stepped out of the box, they would love it too. We live in such a selfish society. What happened to sharing or coming together. Again those Random Acts of Kindness! Just a way to bring a little joy to someone's day, and believe me a whole lot of joy to yours.
Tomorrow marks the one year anniversary of a death of someone who was loved by many. Luis Gonzalez. I have witnessed many deaths and the toll it has taken on families. This is far more than I can explain. This death has torn a community apart and left so many distraught and empty. I speak often of people coming together well this is it. I will not forget the screaming cry that I got from Ely while I was in Florida. I remember those who promised we would get though it together, but now fell off the map. People wonder why I do what I do, well this is part of the reason. Thursdays were magical. I tried to recreate that on Saturday's but it couldn't happen, your right ma, we will never get those Thursday's back again. Right about the end of the season I mentioned possibly bowling Luis laughed looked at Moe it took getting her out here to bowl. He went back in his office and came back out smiling shaking his head. When he died I said I was going to start bowling! Something positive out of a negative situation. That's why I started bowling was for Luis. I hope friends and enemy's can come together hug one another and give support. So many have been affected as sit here and cry. I will be damned if anyone is going to run me out of bowling now! I came into this I love, to have a good time in honor of Luis and I am not hanging my shoes. I refuse to give into the negative drama. Elly I wasn't here last year baby girl, But I am here this year! I love you! I love you all! R.I.P Luis. Your missed by many!
With that being said it is time to get dressed, put on my face as my grandma would say, and go. I hope everyone has a great day and I challenge you all to do something random and see how it affects you. Today of course is my classic by James Blunt I don't think I will see her again but we shared a moment that will last to the end. Your beautiful, your beautiful, your beautiful there must be an angel with a smile on her face when she thought up I should be with you, But it is time to face the truth, I will never be with you. But the lyrics are so peaceful and give me the confidence I need to get through the day. Have a great day and find that song you love and play it over and over, after your random act of kindeness!
Love,
Sarah
