Dear Difference Maker,

For many, school is just around the corner.  What if this year, you simply took one hour a day to learn something new about yourself as you try to be understood by your kids’ teachers?  It’s entirely possible that communication could be so much easier and enjoyable for everyone.

“The improvement of understanding is for two ends: first, our own increase of knowledge; secondly, to enable us to deliver that knowledge to others.”
-John Locke

A daily short pause for the cause is a time-efficient and effective way to gain back your inner peace. The benefits are greater than you may expect.

Dear Difference Maker,

Are you attracting the best in people… or are you pushing the best away?

Right now, your understanding and perceptions about difficult people and situations are either pulling you closer to personal magnetism … or closer to discord.

There’s nothing more important than the quality of our relationships. Tony Robbins said it best… “The quality of your life is the quality of your relationships.” This includes our relationships with absolutely everyone!

Watch this movie and then take the test at the end! Have some fun with it and share it with others!

Dear Difference Maker,

Today is National Let’s Laugh Day!

 Click here to go watch Granny Wack’s Video for you!
I guarantee you will get a few chuckles!

Note from Mary…

Several years ago I came across the photographic artistry of Bobbie Osborne.  One of her collections was of her mother which she titled Granny Wack.

You can not look at Granny and not laugh at her humorous Wacky Wisdom portrayed in her expressions. There is great wisdom in the saying that laughter is always the best medicine!

Laughing is found to lower blood pressure, reduce stress hormones, increase muscle flexion, and boost immune function by raising levels of infection-fighting T-cells, disease-fighting proteins called Gamma-interferon and B-cells, which produce disease-destroying antibodies.

Laughter is infectious. Hospitals around the country are incorporating formal and informal laughter therapy programs into their therapeutic regimens.

In countries such as India, laughing clubs – in which participants gather in the early morning for the sole purpose of laughing – are becoming as popular as Rotary Clubs in the United States.

Humor is a universal language.  It’s a contagious emotion and a natural diversion. It brings other people in and breaks down barriers.

Best of all it is free and has no known side reactions. I hope Granny Wack gives you a laugh today to maybe help you lighten up even more during these stressful times.

Please feel free to send Granny Wack’s video on to people who will appreciate hearing from you!

Dear Difference Maker,

We celebrate our Veterans today for the freedom they give to us, sometimes at great expense to themselves, their family and friends.  In all of the celebrations and commemorations let us not forget …

Reserve suicides up 23 percent — active-duty count remains steady
Military Times 5:22 p.m. EDT April 4, 2016 Patricia Kime

The number of active-duty personnel who died by suicide in 2015 declined slightly from 2014, but the reserve component, including the National Guard, saw a 23 percent increase, according to Pentagon data released Friday.

The Defense Department’s fourth-quarter suicide report for 2015 said 266 active-duty service members committed suicide in 2015,  down from 273 in 2014.

The number of Reserve component members who died by suicide — including those from the Army, Navy, Air Force and Marine Corps reserves as well as Air and Army National Guard troops — rose to 209 from a four-year low of 170 in 2014.

Figures for the active component have remained relatively steady since peaking at 321 in 2012, but they are nearly double the number before the Iraq and Afghanistan wars.

In-depth analyses of military suicides and attempts in a calendar year are issued annually by the Defense Department.  The 2014 Department of Defense Suicide Event Report, which examined the rate of suicide in the services, demographic trends including age, gender, rank and marital status, as well as known or suspected causes of suicide behavior, was released in January 2016.

Having a quiet mind can make all the difference in the world …
