Positive Thought of the Month |

"Twenty years from now, you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did. So, throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbor, and catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover." - Mark Twain
These words by Mark Twain resonate deeply, reminding us of the importance of seizing opportunities and embracing adventure. Life is a journey filled with endless possibilities, and it's often the risks we didn't take that weigh heaviest on our hearts. So, let's cast aside our fears, break free from our comfort zones, and set sail into the unknown. Let's explore new horizons, dream big dreams, and discover the richness that life has to offer. After all, it's in daring to venture beyond the familiar that we truly find ourselves. ๐

Caring for Your Mental Health |
|
Mental health includes emotional, psychological, and social well-being. It affects how we think, feel, act, make choices, and relate to others. Mental health is more than the absence of a mental illnessโitโs essential to your overall health and quality of life. Self-care can play a role in maintaining your mental health and help support your treatment and recovery if you have a mental illness. |

There once was a farmer who grew the most excellent wheat. Every season he won the award for the best wheat in his county.
A wise woman came to him to ask him about his success.
He told her that the key was sharing his best seed with his neighbors so they could plant the seed as well.
The wise woman asked, โHow can you share your best wheat seed with your neighbors when they compete with you every year?โ
โThatโs simple,โ the farmer replied. โThe wind spreads the pollen from everyoneโs wheat and carries it from field to field. If my neighbors grew inferior wheat, cross-pollination would degrade everyoneโs wheat, including mine. If Iโm to grow the best wheat, I must help my neighbors grow the best wheat as well.โ |

Moral: This is not only excellent advice for growing the best crops, but also great advice for how to live your life. If you want to live a meaningful and happy life, help others find happiness.
Remember: The value of your life is measured by the lives you touch with love, kindness, respect, and hope. |
