THRIVE THURSDAY: Let your love inside show on the outside!!! This woman right here has my heart! I have her back and she means the world to me. This is ZES Mylgia @mylgia and she is my sis even though we are far apart she still has my heart. And I let her know how much she means to me. And I will continue to let her know. Her love, her kindness, her genuine care is admired and adored because she has a genuine passion for love- hence why we get a long so well. Love is in us all family. And it is something we should not be afraid to let out! I realize that I forget to share how much I love those around me. It's important to show it, say it, not just assume they know because well, "they just know!" You know how we do: "Oh he knows how I feel" "My girl knows I got her back." Ummm we gotta do more than just say, "They know I don't have to show." Ummmm- yes you do!! Don't just assume they know how you feel! Please- let how you feel inside show on the outside. It's okay to let it out and show it family! We gotta do better. And starting tonight I'm going going do it with some of my sisters who I really love. And I just started with @mylgia Mylgia- my sis, my friend l, my SMILES partner: I love you very much and I'm so glad that our paths have crossed! Love you sis! Yes it feels good to let it out! Because we cannot just hold it in- it does no justice - let your love inside show on the outside so others can truly see how much your love is!!!! You ready? Let's get it!!! #thrivethursday #withaprilsmiles #allsmiles #profsmiles #thatzeslife #changedmezumba #passion4love #40yeartour2017 #myJ2F2017 #lovethoughtsbysmiles #letitshow #loveinsideoutside #lovemypeople #4truthistand

TEACHING TIP TUESDAY: Go to your happy place! What place do you go to to get your happy on? Where do you go to refuel your happy? Time with my beautiful sisters @ms.stewartie is what makes me happy...and when I need to recharge my joy, I go and spend time with my loves (sisters). It's vital to visit that place where your smiles reside, and your soul livens up! It's now or never family. Take the time and go to your happy place- you'll feel better-live better-love better! #tuesdayteachingtip #gotoyourhappyplace #allsmiles #4truthIstand #myJ2F #yourhappyplace #makelovelast #sistersonflex #lovehappy2017

WONDERFUL WISDOM WEDNESDAY: Time to re-connect! We are going through a constant state of tech-love! Addicted to our heads hanging low as we type away on social media, via text, and just to lurk around the entertainment that is right in the palm of our hands. Careful as we don't wanna be permanently hanging low with our heads! We gotta DIS-connect to RE-connect...put the tech-gadgets down and lift our heads up to people, to Mother Earth, to nature as the way it is intended to be. We gotta reach out and hug -and give smiles to people instead of looking down on that gadget that won't return a real smile. Our minds are programmed to keep the gadget near us at all times! Why? We rely on it too much to the point that we lose touch with others and with nature- have you seen the fall of leaves? Did you really feel that wind in the crisp air as you were walking? Yea real talk! We gotta DIS-connect to RE-connect. Don't let the young generation make this their idol. It is too much of a risk for our younger ones and yet we get pulled in thinking this is what we have to do....NO@you don't have to do it. And even if you willingly WANT to do it- remember it will never replace a real hug, a real smile, a real live presence to truly CONNECT! #wonderfulwednesdaywisdom #realtalk #allsmiles #droppingtruth #4truthIstand #disconnect2reconnect #strugglemakesUstronger

Wonderful Wednesday Wisdom: HUMILITY IS A GREAT TEACHER... One of the best ways to show others you care is by showing HUMILITY wherever you go- whenever you can- wherever you are! There is always a time, a place, a situation you will be placed in where humility is the best Teacher- not just for others but for you as well...don't give in to the ego-proud-arrogant-diva/divo ways- it won't bring community. And isn't that what we are supposed to be doing? Building community comes from learning humility. You walk in humility by letting others shine- by encouraging others to show their gifts....stop living for YOU and live for the good of others- for the edifying of others' gifts and then your own gifts will follow. #wednesdaywisdom #thatzeslife #allsmilesallwisdom #learnhumility #humilityasteacher #walkinhumility #4truthistand #myj2f
