Life is a spinning staircase...

Every day we get up thinking today is a new day and I'm going to conquer it.  I'm gonna smile, life smells like roses, and I'm going to soar like an eagle.  The sun is shining and the grass is green.

Then reality hits...kids are ready to get going with school and you are just pulling yourself together.  I don't have the luxury of relying on coffee like most.  Some days I have all I can do to stand the smell.  Though it's strange because the mocha shake I have I love and I think it has a small hint of coffee.  I am very strange and peculiar.  I'm ok with that though.  It's what makes me, me.  AND...I love it!  Then you have people who you care about that you get the pleasure of pouring into them.  Honestly it fuels me.  I love helping others.  That's what makes my job so amazing!  Getting to homeschool my kids, work in the cracks of my time, love on my kids, cook dinner, bike rides, boat rides, trips to the grocery store, visit with friends...Who gets paid to do that?  I do!  And again I LOVE it!!

I worked as a teller at a bank several years ago.  It was one of those jobs I really enjoyed and it was fun.  It was giving customer service and meeting others needs.  Sometimes you were the one smile that changed their entire day.  It was great.  During this job, we found out we were going to be parents for the first time and it was exciting, nerve wrecking and what do we have to do now to prepare.  Though time went on and I was about 7 month pregnant, the day was slow, and so I was offered to leave early.  I thought....I really need to see my parents.  Dad wasn't home yet but he would be soon.  I stayed just so I could get a hug from Daddy!  Next day my husband and I were going out of state for a short vacation.  While we were gone, I got a call that I'll never forget.  The day had come when that hug was the last.  Daddy was killed in a motorcycle accident.  My heart fell to the floor, physically my strength was gone, my husbands arms were the only thing holding me up.  My strength rested in the Lord, knowing that He was the only one that could pull me through.  It was a LONG trip home. "I had just seen him yesterday..." 

You are never guaranteed tomorrow let alone the next breath.  Are you happy where you are and what you are doing?  Do you see yourself doing this in 5 years?  What are your dreams and visions?  What do you want in life?

So many questions to think about.  One thing I can say, life is truly like a spinning staircase.  Each twist and turn makes us who we are. Which part of your staircase are you on?  Where will this lead you in the coming days, months, years...?

Over 5 million bottles sold since January 8th...

I would be so self centered if I didn't share this with you.  I really have a passion in  all things pertaining to our health on into aging youthfully.  When I find something extraordinary for my hair, skin and nails, I can't keep it a secret.  This one is too good not to share.  I'd be selfish if I did.   Seriously, I’m blown away by the results. For some they are fast, natural and not only does it leaving you glowing from the inside out, but I promise your skin has not been this soft in over a decade, so far it has worked on every person in one form or another, and no coaching, discomfort or strict routine is involved and it costs about what you would pay for one facial at a nice spa! Seriously blown away at that too. You’ve probably heard about the benefits of collagen!  Well, this is special.  After 10 years of research, my company found a Type 1 collagen in the ocean off of Scandinavia and made an elixir with aloe vera, chamomile, vitami...
