It’s time to stop just surviving and start thriving!

On our recent trip to help out in the hurricane recovery efforts in western North Carolina, I met a little boy.

We were at an event for families at the Black Mountain Fire Department where we were distributing kid's books, toys and games. There were other supplies there as well as food and water, all free to the community. I was sitting at a table right by a large assortment of children's books that had been donated when the cutest little blonde boy about 7 years old walked up with his mom. He quickly zeroed in on a Llama in Pajamas book and snatched it up like it was made of gold. "Mom!!!! I had this book! This one was my favorite book!!!!" He was so excited I thought he was going to burst as he hugged the book to his chest and grinned from ear to ear. I gave him one of the string bags we had and told him the book was for him and that could fill that bag up with whatever he wanted. His mom looked down at him with tears in her eyes and said "Oh Honey! Now you can start rebuilding your library!"

At that point, I would have been just fine getting in the car and driving back home because all the driving and all the preparations and collecting the donations and rearranging schedules had all been worth it for that one moment with the little blonde headed boy who loved the Llama in Pajamas book.

So if you are the one who donated that book, just know that while you may not have realized it, you answered the prayer of one little boy in Black Mountain NC and made a cynical, old therapist cry.

We are in Black Mountain NC today with the Black Mountain Fire Department. They are hosting a family community day and providing a hot meal to those who still find themselves without power or water. This community has been hit so hard and so many have lost so much, and yet the overall feeling is still one of hope. We asked and you guys responded in a big way!

Radley is ready to get back into the office. I gotta say, I’ve never had a coworker who was more fun! (Or one who left more random piles of hair around the office!)

When we believe that we are powerless, we cease to dream. We are rarely without options and truly powerless, we may simply not like the options available. Often that feeling of powerlessness is actually our unwillingness to make the uncomfortable choice. Don't hand your personal power off to anyone. Don't let perceived powerlessness steal your dreams.

Setting boundaries and saying "no" can take work in the beginning, especially when it concerns family members. But the work is worth the true peace that results. If you can't say "no," then you can't actually say "yes." Handing your sense of personal power to another person will never create peace for you, it might give the other person peace but it is not a recipe for your peace.

Setting and maintaining appropriate boundaries is the first step towards walking in peace, especially during the holiday season. Toxic people are toxic, even when they are related to us. Toxic or dysfunctional situations don't become acceptable because they involve a relative. No one else is going to respect your peace if you don't value it enough to protect it yourself.
