Have A Blue-tiful Day

I believe that:

1) Everyone is a Teacher
2) Everyone is a Student

As a result, I’m often given wonderful lessons by a wide variety of people, often at unexpected times.

My good friend Phil Gerbyshak has been actively campaigning that people stop “having a nice day” in order to Make It Great! I wholeheartedly have supported his cause because life is too short for merely nice.

Recently, I was taught an excellent morning greeting which I think easily fits into this philosophy by my friend Sarah. Sarah is a very creative artist, writer, and future Veterinarian. Instead of sayings “Have a Beautiful Day” she tells others to “Have a Bluetiful Day,” a phrase she coined herself.

Sarah is currently focusing her studies within the second-grade as she is seven years old; nevertheless, there is great wisdom to be found within her blended analogy. Think of all the wonderful days in your life when you have noticed that there wasn’t a single cloud in the sky...reflect on those warm spring afternoons when the sun shone brightly while the outstretched blue sky dared you to smile wide.

So, tomorrow, promise me that you’ll listen closer to the words of children (remember, everyone is a teacher) and that you will indeed Have A Bluetiful Day.
