Hello!!

Happy Juneteenth!! Happy World Cup!! Happy Pride Month!!

Give it up for Michelle Obama!! She gave another amazing speech this week. Save this link for any day you are feeling down and out. It will give you a boost of motivation in less than 20min.

Watch Here

I was drawn to the part about her speaking to every single person's innate goodness.

AND

“We want you to come here and put away your phones and talk and laugh and cry…and make new friends,” she said. “Get your hands dirty in my garden. Push your baby on a swing in the playground. Have a romantic picnic on the great lawn. Because that’s the work of democracy too. Being neighborly. Taking care of public spaces. Having some fun enjoying each other. Shaking out of the isolation and division that have crept too deeply into our lives.”

This made me think:

What would it look like for you to shake out the isolation and division in your personal relationships??

Relationship Tip:

Judgement is not understanding. Read that again. Your judgement is not understanding.

I judged this author early on in the book. And then he spent the rest of the book explaining/telling additional stories to prove my judgment incorrect.

I’m so glad I didn’t write the author off and stop reading. Is this not what we do with people?! Mistake judgment for understanding…

Keep listening. Stay engaged. Keep an open mind.

Cook County ICU, by Cory Franklin, MD | 30 Years of Unforgettable Patients and Odd Cases

Not in the show bonus thoughts

I just saw an attractive guy with a shirt that said Chores included and I chuckled at that.

Once time I had a very good dream. I was in some sort of office and it was late at night. Michelle Obama came in and sat down, tired from a long day. I said hello, and asked if she wanted a foot rub. She said, "Yes, I would." And I rubbed her feet.

Then I woke up. I enjoy giving foot rubs so much. To my clients and Michelle Obama.

Thanks so much for taking time out of your day to read what I have to say.

Much care and joy to you!!!!!

Hugs,

Amity
