Game ON, 2017...

Website

I was surprised last night by two young women who were visiting Greenpeace supporters in the area... They wanted to reach out and accomplish three things with their visit (which we can all learn from):

1. EXTEND GRATITUDE. They braved the cold to visit their Sacramento supporters and personally say "Thank you". I even got a hug. Emails and phone calls can't sent that message!
2. RECONNECT WITH PEOPLE. There will be a lot of challenges for everyone this coming year and we cannot do much on our own. We need to connect with like-minded people and link arms.
3. ASK FOR HELP. We can't be timid or shy when it comes to making changes in this world. We each have to not only stand up for what we believe in. We also need to "put up or shut up" with financial support, volunteerism and knocking on doors...

I told them I have been an environmental advocate since the first Earth Day in 1970 and I am SO EXCITED to see the next generations on the bandwagon. I am also inspired to up MY game in 2017.

So I dedicate THIS blog to all the organizations I have supported and to the people who make a BIG difference. If your cause is not on my billboard, make your own and make a difference. 

GAME ON, PEOPLE!! (This is me asking...)

'Tis a MAGICAL Season

As the song says "It's the MOST Wonderful time of the Year!" It's a season of family, community, giving and peace. Here are just a few things to consider:

• VOLUNTEER, DONATE, SUPPORT: Many of you already do so much for your community. Let's each of us step it up a notch in 2016 and through next year... Let's see if CHANGE happens... 
• SUPPORT & CELEBRATE LOCALLY: Support a local business by shopping, dining & spreading the holiday cheer in your own community. Let's see if PROSPERITY happens...
• BE PART OF THE SOLUTION: There is so much in this world that we can complain about (so much!). I like the lyrics from Michael Jackson's song: "Man in the Mirror": If you wanna make the world a better place; Take a look at yourself, and then make a change." Let's see if MAGIC happens...

Check out the events coming up in Rancho Cordova and more in BobsPocket.com. Hope our paths will cross somewhere "out there"... let's make some MAGIC!
