One of the best things you can do to have a fun day is to help someone else.
You might not make their problems all go away, but the important part is to be there. Be there for your friend…your family…your neighbor. And by “be there” I mean look for ways to give without having to be asked. We all need other people. And we all need help sometimes. It’s OK, too. That just means there are opportunities all around you to help someone else have a fun day.
You might see an old man or woman who seems to be lost. You can offer to help them find their way or find something. Maybe you’ll be walking near someone who drops a bag of groceries or purse or something. You can pick it up (or at least offer) and smile as you hand it back to them.
You have a great imagination. So, you don’t need me to tell you all the ways you can help someone have a fun day. All you need to do is keep your eyes and ears open. And keep your smile ready. Use it every chance you get…because no matter how mean or tough this world can get…you can still…
Have a fun day…
Whatever you do.
Someone else might…
You might as well, too.
Whether there’s sun
Or whether there’s rain,
When life has lemons,
Grab a sugar cane.
Never can tell
When your neighbor might
Benefit from
Your bouncy, bright light.
Something you do
Or something you say
Might help somebody
To have a fun day. © 2013 TF
