Talk About Doing Good Things (Oprah Gets It )

I recently read an article about Oprah Winfrey and how she gave each person on her staff $10,000 an ipod and and ipad. I look at that as just a beautiful thing and the fact that she didn't have to do it makes it even more beautiful. I know in this world, material things aren't all that matters. I know that the idea of just plan giving is enough no matter how big or small. I know that there are people who wish they could give but can't. I also know there are people who can give, but don't. A few things I know for sure that we can all give. Love, understanding, appreciation, acceptance, a listening ear, a helping hand, and the gift of a smile.

I often ask how does Oprah do it? How does she want to just give that much of her money away? I then watch her re-runs from my "Oprah's 20th Anniversary" collection and realized, Oprah has a gift and her gift is the ability to love people, a gift that each of us love to receive.

Still time to vote for me to have my talk show and actually work with Oprah click here to vote http://myown.oprah.com/audition/index.html?request=video_details&response_id=4755&promo_id=1

Embracing Hospice song title, "Indeed"

 This song is dedicated to all those who make a difference in the lives of others each and everyday. Myself and a colleague wrote this song while doing volunteer work for Embracing Hospice. A final resting place for the terminally ill. We performed it at one of their annual meetings to thank them and remind them that each and everyday, they embrace hope in someone who may have felt all hope was gone.  At the end of the song, one of my colleagues performs a song by Pastor Marvin Winans, "I need you to survive."


Singing the song I wrote with the Embracing Hospice singers
