Today is suppose to be good luck! Every one is saying so! However, in the beach town that I live in 4 people, yes I said 4 people have broken their necks at the beach today! How horrible is that!! The news said they were all jumping waves or diving into the water when they hit a sand bar. Can you imagine how these 4 peoples' lives if they turn out to be paralyzed could change forever?

The horrible tragedies made me start thinking about my own life. Am I living my life to the fullest? What can I do differently so that I can? I answered no to the first question. The answer to second question is still unfolding every day. Why is that? Because every day I am moving one step closer to turning my small business into a very successful well known company. I am working so hard at it for so many reasons.

Last night while surfing the net I came across a story on Yahoo that broke my heart. I can't even imagine the hell this mother and son went through! An unspeakable crime! How do they move forward and get on with their lives? This family is another reason I am building my business. As I've stated I see my company being very successful in the future. With success comes money. With money comes the opportunity to help others that are in need. Sometimes people just need some help. This family needs a safer place to live. Yes, crime happens everywhere, but it does lower the chances if you live in a less crime ridden area. This family also needs lots of counseling, encouragement, and money to make a better life for themselves. They need to be able to have hope and find some good in the world again. Money won't solve every problem, but it can be a good starting place. Sometimes people need a little boost to get them in a better place. I know I can't save the world, but I can use my success to help others. Give them what they need to get them in a better place. Put a smile on their face. Give them some hope. Let them be able to dream again. Other people that have amassed a fortune (big or small) have used their financial resources to give to individuals, charities, and good causes. I plan on adding my name to that list.
