A Moment with Donna~ Reaching for the Gold ©


"This is an age in which the mental attitude decides the fortunes of people rather than the
fortunes decide the mood."
Winston Churchill



It was just about time to go to lunch and I had been quite busy with counseling sessions all
morning. Just as I was ready to leave my office the phone rang. Picking it up, I answered,
"Good Morning, Donna Seebo speaking."

A young voice responded to my greeting, introducing herself, (I'll call her Martha) and asked if
she could talk with me for a few minutes. I responded affirmatively. Within a couple of minutes,
choking, tearful sounds came across loud and clear through the telephone line. I learned that
Martha was 14 years old and she was grasping for supportive help. Her story really hit a strong
cord of reality. She talked and I listened.

Very angry and frustrated, Martha related the following, "My mother is on welfare. Every day
she sits in her rocker in the living room and does affirmations. I'm 14 but I've been working
part-time after school. My mom won't do anything. She could work but she won't. She keeps
saying,'God will provide'. I can't do that. She won't do anything to better our life. I can't stand it!
I want a better life! I hate welfare! What can I do to change her? Her affirmations don't work because she's not doing anything but sitting in a rocker!"

While listening to this 14-year-old (who was going on 35), her earnestness, strength and
courage to overcome limitations was very apparent. She obviously loved her mother but her
mother had acquired the bad habit of inaction, adopted a belief that supported it and
consistently demonstrated the result. We talked for a while. I suggested to her that though she
may not be able to change her mother's habit of inaction, she could use it as a reminder. That it
was important it for her to continue her education, take charge of her own habits and actions,
demonstrating to her mother how thoughtful, planned action brings results. By example, she
just might influence her mother, for we cannot change the nature of another person unless they
want that change.

We all have dreams, aspirations for success in our lives. When we least expect it Life kicks
us in the teeth just when we take off our mental braces thinking everything is in perfect
alignment. We forget that we need to wear a retainer to make sure that that alignment holds.
To create a healthy change we must develop the habits of positive action that keep things in
place. Eventually these habits, new ideas and action hold their position firmly in our lives.

To 'Reach for the Gold', you need to see, visualize your dream, whether it is for a home, new
career, financial independence or anything else. Then you go about doing whatever you can to
reach it. It could take a while and you may have to work very hard to reach your objective. Have
faith in yourself, put yourself in supportive environments that support your desire and it may be
fulfilled in a most wonderful way.

Be open to possibilities. Don't limit your scope. Remember-imagination, faith, belief plus
action are a powerful team. That is what a young, starving artist, who loved to paint flowers,
found out. She got a job at a bakery decorating cakes. After hours, she would use leftover
colored icing as paint and stale cakes as a blank canvass. Today she has a business
decorating specialty cakes with flowers, selling them for very high prices and earns an income
in the high six figures. She is fulfilled as an artist and loves what she does.

At 14, Martha knows that she wants to better her life. After our conversation she felt a lot
better and was able to focus on the value of her education and developing her life in the best
way she can. She is taking charge of her attitudes and action and feeling good about it.

Hold true to your personal course – see it, feel it and follow through with action. 'Reach for
the Gold' and you will eventually find your own 'Treasure Island', that will bring you fulfillment,
blessing your experience of life in wonderful ways.

QUOTE FOR THE MONTH

"The season of failure is the best time for sowing the seeds of success. Plant your dreams"
Author Unknown


(~.~) MARCH'S CHUCKLE (~.~)

There was a middle-aged guy who bought a 2002 Mercedes convertible. He took off down the road, flooring it up to 80 mph and enjoying the wind blowing through what little hair he had left on his head. "This is great!" he thought and floored it some more.
He looked in his rear view mirror and there was a State Trooper behind him, blue lights flashing and siren blasting, "I can get away from him with no problem!" he said to himself and he promptly pushed the accelerator to the floor and sped down the road at over 120 mph.

Then he reflected, "What am I doing? I'm too old for this kind of thing!" promptly pulled over to the side of the road, waiting for the State Trooper to catch up with him.

The Trooper pulled in behind the Mercedes and walked up to the driver's side of the vehicle. "Sir," he said, looking at his watch. "My shift ends in 30 minutes and today is Friday the 13th. If you can give me a reason why you were speeding that I've never heard before, I'll let you go".

The driver looked at the Trooper and said, "Last week my wife ran off with a State Trooper, and I thought you were bringing her back!"

The State Trooper said, "Have a nice day!"

GOLDEN NUGGETS
True Stories about Real People

In a supermarket, Kurtis, the stock boy, was busily working when a new voice came over the loud speaker asking for a carryout at the check register. Kurtis was almost finished with stocking shelves, and wanted to get some fresh air, so he decided to answer the call. As he approached the checkout stand, the smiling face of a new checkout girl greeted him. She was beautiful. An older woman, she was about 26, (he was only 22), he instantly he fell in love.

Later that day, after his shift was over, he waited by the punch clock to find out her name. She came into the break room. Seeing him she smiled, then took her timecard, punched out, and left. He walked over, took a look at her timecard and saw her name, Brenda. Following her out of the break room, he watched her start walking up a road.

Next day, he waited outside as she left the supermarket and offered her a ride home. Having seen him before, he looked harmless enough, so she accepted. When he dropped her off, he asked if maybe he could see her again, outside of work. She simply said it wasn't possible. He asked why and she explained she had two children and she couldn't afford a babysitter, so he offered to pay for the babysitter. Reluctantly, she accepted his offer for a date the following
Saturday.

That Saturday night he arrived at her door only to have her tell him that she was unable to go with him. The babysitter had called and canceled. Kurtis simply said, "Well, lets take the kids with us." Brenda tried to explain that taking the children wasn't an option but Kurtis would not take no for an answer, he wanted to know why the kids couldn't go with them. Finally she brought him inside to meet her children. Introducing him to the children, Kurtis thought that the daughter was as cute as she could be. Then Brenda brought out her son in a wheelchair. He had been
born a paraplegic with Down's syndrome. Kurtis asked Brenda, "I still don't understand why the kids can't come with us?" She was amazed, as most men would run away from a woman with two kids, especially if one had disabilities. That is what her first husband had done.

So, that Saturday night, Kurtis and Brenda loaded up the kids, went to dinner and the
movies. When her son needed anything Kurtis would take care of him. When he needed to use the restroom, Kurtis picked him up out of the wheelchair, took him and brought him back. The kids fell in love with Kurtis. By the end of the evening, Brenda knew this was the man she was going to marry and spend the rest of her life with. A year later, they married. Kurtis adopted both of her children, and they had two more of their own.

What happened to the stock boy and check out girl? Well, Mr. & Mrs. Kurt Warner now live in St. Louis, where he is employed by the St.Louis Rams and plays quarterback.
