     Hi Friends, I hope all who celebrated had a wonderful holiday season this year. I spent most of my time with family, friends and loved ones. For Christmas eve, we celebrated at my parents home. It was priceless watching my little nephew as he opened his gifts..his eyes would open wide with every present he opened. He also knows the TRUE meaning of celebrating this holiday and I personally think that is way more important than ANYTHING else. On Christmas day the family celebrated at my aunt's estate in the countryside. It was very nice to see my grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends. The food was great also too lol. Then on December 26th (yesterday) at 5:00a.m. I had to have yet another urology surgery, so yes I am still in recovery mode and still in a lot of physical pain. I woke this morning feeling horrible as expected, finally was able to make it to the kitchen for some coffee. I had a lot of work to do today.....most was for the radio show and other works that I will announce soon. I did however get another audition notice today for a stage production that is approx;10-15 shows per week for 10 weeks IF I get the part. I am unable to audition tomorrow due to surgery recovery and prepping for the last radio show of 2013. The casting director is kindly working around my schedule so that I may audition. That is not normal of a casting director, so I am very thankful that this particular one is ever so gracious to me. She is also one of the top casting directors in the mid-west. Moving on.....earlier today as I was preparing my script for the Saturday Night Ride radio show uncut, (internet version of the show) on spreaker.com and SOON iHeartRadio....so I was at the end of prepping getting ready to broadcast and then I got a call from a family member letting me know that one of my 22 year old cousins had Died last night......needless to say this shook me to my core....yet another reality reminder of what is truly important in life and how much WE ALL need to appreciate each day we are allowed to live... it really made me wonder if this would WAKE other people of ALL AGES up to appreciating their lives, or will they stay the same way, ungrateful and unappreciate life. All of us has to make some clear decisions about who we are and what we want in this life. As well, consider there is always a certain amount of time wasted each day that could be used for positive fruitful activities of meaning. So, what is it that crops up in life that bothers me? The issue of not living for today, comes from wishing things were different, and hoping that the next pinnacle, milestone, or material possession will create the happiness so longed for.

The big problem with this kind of thinking and attitude is one that expresses dissatisfaction/being unhappy of where you are now; in other words, having an attitude that is more about being dissatisfied than being satisfied. It means that this type of person cannot appreciate the moment; cannot find value or appreciate where they are today; and, cannot be happy living with what they have today. Instead they wish that everything change right now so they can have what they want, when they want it, without having to wait, work, or sacrifice. Most americans that I know want a "microwave" life, they want it quick no matter what precious energy they may lose.

Maybe, for those  parents in this new age, have spoiled the children too much? I asked myself... Maybe we have given them all those things that we didn't get as children and in doing so have gone too far? Part of the reason for this self-serving attitude may be our fault through our material expression of love. There are adults that have the same attitude not just kids.

One of the things that I see to be lost with people or those who seek to live tomorrow instead of today, is that each day is precious. Each day can be full of new delights, new beginnings, new fun, new experiences, new challenges, and new opportunities etc.

We ALL have only one day at a time to live. There is only a certain amount of time in each day and it is up to YOU to do with it the best you can. The worst we can do is to waste it by wishing and hoping for things in the future and thinking that this wishful future will be able to make us whole and happy. The real happiness of life is how you see and use each day I think anyway, not what you think will be beyond today. This is not to say that we shouldn't have aspirations for future goals. What I am saying, though, is that EVERYONE needsto value each day and each other for what it offers, for what it gives you and to stop wishing/wasting your life away. There are thousands upon thousands of people who wish they could go back in time to do just what you can do now if only you see the real picture. My HOPE for you is that by reading this little blog it will remind you or make YOU start to appreciate each day good and bad,I know easier said than done, but atleast TRY. I know friends this blog isn't super interesting but it's my blog and this is what's on my mind and heart to share with you all. I have noticed YOU ALL; meaning my readers....I started this BLOGSPOT with just one maybe a few blogs way back in Feb. 2011 or 2012(dont remember lol) I started blogging full force in march 2013 and since then I have watched the number of readers skyrocket...more than I ever ever anticipated. Whats even more interesting is the wide array of locations in which YOU all are reading from. I not only have readers here in America, but well over 20 other nations and even in other languages. As of now I have readers in Russia, China, Malaysia, South Africa, Uganda, Kenya, Japan, Indonesia, Israel, Qatar, South Korea and many more. These are just a few that have large numbers of readers. I believe I have close to 4000 readers already yet ONLY 13 official followers lol, I think a big part of that is People want to just simply read and enjoy NOT go through making an account and such just to click "follow" and that is OK with me friends.

           Hi Friends, I hope and Pray all is well with each of you readers. Here in my region it has been bitterly cold, with the exception of today.  Today the weather was nice I believe it was around 60degrees with some sunshine. This entire past few weeks have been beyond hectic on me...I have had many doctor appointments, sessions, meetings, an audition for an independent film, the radio show, and finally today was my last doctors appointment. I will be having a urology surgery on the 26th of dec. 2013 YES in just 6 days and its the morning after christmas! It does highly irritate me but I shall remain positive and be glad to get the surgery and recovery over. So ALL of you that pray...I would appreciate any and all prayers for this. Moving on...I have 2 more radio show episodes to host for this ending year, in 2014 I anticipate much positive and creative change to the show as it moves into the tenth season. Seasons are basically/usually 4-6 mnths. However some seasons have been a year, some have been short. It depends on many factors, this is the 10th year that THE SATURDAY NIGHT RIDE RADIO SHOW has existed. Before the show I hosted "The Kelly O' Telly Show" with a good friend and former co-host and creative film partner. We are still friends, just have some creative differences for radio, he doesn't like talk formatted show but I do and that is what works best for the show, the affiliate station and the fans. So here we are a radio talk show, this week is our X-Mas Show produced by one of our new co-hosts, Roxanne Bare, Tune IN this coming Saturday  dec. the 21st at 7:00p.m.CST.  YOU CAN TUNE IN by simple ways. Such as if you are local turn your radio dial to 89.5FM, for our International listeners YOU ALL can go to our affiliate stations website and click on LISTEN LIVE just go to www.wgrn.net Also friends if you have the TUNEINRADIO APP on your phones just search wgrn and tune in at 7:00P.M. Saturday nights Central Time. Starting  in January 2014 there are changes coming to the radio show, we will be having yet another co-host joining us on monthly basis. He is Mr.Jes Adam, Jes is the owner of a Coffee and Music House, he also is a vocalist, musician, and artist. We(the cast&crew) at the Radio Show think that Mr. Adam will be a perfect fit for THE SATURDAY NIGHT RIDE RADIO SHOW. Now moving on once again lol...I will be glad when sunday arrives...that seems to be the only day of the week I actually get most of the day to myself and can relax. For the most part I have a very busy and crazy schedule each week due to ALL the different works and such I do each week. My blog topic for today is about appreciation, It should be about appreciation and gratitude but anyway my reason for this topic is because I see too much and too many good people being totally unappreciated and even took for granted. Doing this negative to people is harmful to the people that go unappreciated and to the folks that do it. So hopefully this blog helps at least someone in this selfish world we live in.Lets look at appreciation as a "magic tool" as if we all are our very own magicians lol sounds nuts but here it is anyway.....Appreciation, is one of the best magic tools we have. One of the best ways to measure where you are at in your development as a wonderful magician, is how well you use appreciation. Most people that operate at a lower level of thinking usually believe that appreciation is a spontaneous event or feeling that simply "happens" from time to time or happen to feel a small amount of gratitude.. possibly they realize it when it comes over them. Maybe they feel lucky who knows really..... But most of the time, they hardly notice when a warm person helps/assists them. Appreciation is really a passing thought to most. By failing to even acknowledge the magic of appreciation mere sheep stay just that, mere ignorant sheep. Now Lets step it up a notch, and you have the awakened former sheep folks, that have learned the value of appreciation and seek it out and use it. They realize that appreciation is actually a positive and powerful and look for opportunities to cultivate it or bask in its warmth and kindness; then they may hopefully chase appreciation around. These more enlightened folks know that everything looks lovelier and beautiful in their own ways.In the light of appreciation,look at it kind of like faces can look more beautiful by candle light. Make sense? However,  I believe a true master of their own experience/power already knows that appreciation is a magical tool that can be harnessed and directed at will as long as they use it in a positive manner. One can feel appreciation anytime they want by thinking and meditating on happy experiences and raise their vibrations/increase positive moods.I even think one can change the feeling in a room of people by bathing the room in positive, gratitude, and appreciation energy/intent. One can take any situation they want to change or transform and magically turn it around with appreciation and most importantly intent. I believe Intention is everything....Here's an easy example...hopefully lol..

"Sue" and her husband are having a lot  marriage problems. They had only been married about a year. What had been a blissful and wonderful courtship had turned into a cold, bitter, and emotionally abusive  marriage in what seemed like record time. The day to day chaos of life had taken "sue" by surprise. However, when she finally woke up to what was happening, she knew immediately, as a  warm genuine magician what she needed to do. She went on a full campaign of appreciation for her husband "Larry". She appreciated the hell out of him all the time, so much he almost became irritated with it lol.... She told him about it as often as she could. More importantly she thought about all the things she appreciated about him with an obsession. I was talking to her a few days ago and she broke out a list of things that she appreciated about him that she carried with her everywhere in her purse. Since she had begun her campaign of appreciation three weeks ago, she reported that her marriage was night and day. She felt like the honeymoon was finally back. "Sue" was seeing changes in "Larry" that she didn't even anticipate happening and also learning new things to appreciate about him everyday.

We are  have the ability to show true appreciation friends so show it to those people that deserve it as well as appreciate yourselves. Remember, when we put appreciation to the test Appreciation used as a tool and not just a random passing feeling can turn a lot in your life around and always for the better. Put it to the test for yourself and see what miracles you can conjure up for yourself friends! THANK YOU ALL FOR READING!
