Who are you pushing away?

I was looking at this note on my daughter's bedroom door and it got me thinking...

Note: If you can't read the scribbling the note is a 5 year old's spelling of 'keep out'. A special note from one sister to another.

Who are you keeping out of your life that could offer something you need right now?

What might happen if you let them in?

Take a moment to sit with these questions.

How to Love People like Kelsey's Loves Duane

I spotted this sign at a local Kelsey's restaurant and it got me thinking...

First it got me wondering who Duane was, so I asked the hostess at the door.

I found out that Duane is a regular customer who has been going to the restaurant twice a day (lunch and dinner) since it opened.

Wow! Now that's dedication. Hopefully he's eating a salad once in a while and not only wings and burgers!

While this is a bit odd (for someone to go to one place twice a day for years) it also can be viewed as a love affair between Duane and Kelsey's.

Duane shows the establishment his love (and money) and they give him some love back with a private spot for his car.

On another note, this week is my wife's birthday and this experience has me wondering how I can make her feel as special as Kelsey's make's Duane feel. How can I treat her like the VIP she is? I'll sleep on that one.

I'm also wondering how I can make you feel this special. Let me know.

We all deserve to feel the love. Don't you think?
