A Prediction

Like predictions? Here’s one for you. I predict when the stock market goes over the 10,000 mark and sustains that level…the US economy will begin to climb noticeably out of the doldrums.

Old Growth Hippie’s can have prophecies too.

It’s like my old pappy used to say: You’ve got to be bold to be big. The only thing that ever came from doing something halfway is a half-life.

With so many folks hurtin’ from financial woes, it’s hard to be upbeat. The good news is there are a whole lot of us in this together. So how’s this…next stranger you meet on the street, smile the best one you can put together under the circumstances and say howdy. The next time you check out at the grocery or any other store, say Thank You before they do. The key here is…you’ve got to mean it. If you don’t mean it, it’s not the same.

It’s amazing how far a little unconditional consideration and appreciation goes these days.

OGH
