Mayor’s Message

Fulfill The Purpose We Have Been Blessed With

May I share a few thoughts that have been rattling around in my head for a few weeks. As you are all probably aware, we are in the midst of some very interesting events which tend to make all our lives seem a little more complex and out of control. So may I share this; Why not free yourself from all the complexities and drama currently in your life right now.  Make things simple. Look within yourself, you are one of a kind. Within ourselves we have all the gifts and talents we need to fulfill the purpose we have been blessed with.

Take time for yourself. Be a lamp, a lifeboat or a ladder. Look for someone to help. I’ll bet you find one.

Sometimes in our lives we should look at not only pursuing happiness, but in being useful, honorable and compassionate. Having our life make some difference will say to others; you have lived and lived well.

My ending thought is this: I want to live my life in such a way, that when I get out of bed in the morning the devil says, “Doggone it, he’s up.”

Make a difference this month..........OK?
