I really love Sesame Street and there they were looking back at me when I went to search this morning. Google really has this logo specialization thingy down… I usually go to their site on purpose each day just to see what’s up now!
My website Be A Smile represents my passion, energy… and smiling is the smallest and beginning of energy generation… then laughing keeps it going. I have a line of characters called Bebuddies who are the spreader of the smiles… come join the fun and take a look… and thanks for being you! —Karrie Ross
Johnny was one of the great showmen I can think of…I remember watching his show regularly for years in my early twenties. His ability to share his sense of ‘now’ with others in the form of laughter was one-of-a-kind magic. Here he is with the famous Egg trick and spectacular unexpected ending.
These two guys always had a new perspective, a new way to view a particular situation with wit and humor and sometimes silliness…they knew how to ‘be a smile’ that everyone would remember.
Today’s twitter question was about smiling. For me, a smile is the smallest form of energy creation. It has the power to immediately change your state. You hear people talking about being tired, stressed out, feeling stuck, these are all low energy feelings. I suggest you give smiling a try and then find something to laugh about, you’ll be up and running at full speed in no time at all with a renewed direction and focus.
If you’ve been following my posts you’ll know that I have this thing for “symbols” and the effect they have on us, the way we think and see the worlds around us.
I love stars. They are a perfect balance and design. For the past 16 or so years I’ve collected them around Christmas and put one (sometimes angels or interesting shape) on my front door. As you can see by the photo, I’ve almost covered half the door. This year I bought an angel, it is at the top.
As you can see they bring a feeling of whimsy and stop you in your tracks to look at them closer.
Remember, do something every day that makes you or someone else smile
I get so many forwarded emails and usually they stop with me… but this one is worth sharing with everyone. Robin Williams has a knack, a knack for relatedness and in this he relates us to the flag.
We teach children how to see, to observe, to watch, all the time. Then somewhere in this process, learning gets lost and left at whatever place they stopped with learning colors or putting names to items. Identification leads to an awareness of observation, a “what to think about” when making choices, which toy to play with or crayon to color with.
When children learn how to consciously observe the world around them, they will always have something to do… Be watching! This can show up in activities such as watching clouds, listening to sounds outside, watching how a car is fixed or a cake is baked and the watching will be especially absorbed when they get to help.
When the thoughts and actions that we take for granted are brought in to our awareness with a why question, they take on a new form, a texture, and become a substance that is observable and therefore moveable!
And you thought you’d had enough of why questions from your two-year-old! Just wait until you reacquaint your self with the magic of Why.
Remember, parenting begins from the inside out… and getting to know your energy begins now!

Confidence can be found in many places. One of them being in asking questions.
Questions make the world go ’round. If we didn’t have questions where would we be? Questions go hand-in-hand with wonder. Not only the wonder of question but the wonder of amazement.
Carousels bring us joy of a kind we seldom think about. The magic of the lights, movement and sound bring together three of the most important aspecs for placing an anchor for remembering an experience.
The more impressive the senses are surrounding an event determines the impact it will have on you, your reactions when it comes up again, and how it will be remembered over time.

What is it with questions? There, that’s a question. Pay attention right now to your thoughts, is there a question there? See if you can notice how many questions you have over a 5 minute period, consciously know.
I bet there are quite a few if you are able to catch them! They have a habit of moving fast.
No wonder 2-year olds love to ask Why? its really an exciting request don’t you think? They are just now beginning to “see” the world and listen to what is being said around and to them so why not ask questions? I propose that one of the surest ways to gage our level of confidence is in the way our questions are attended to not only when we are very young but also as we grow.
Take the time to think on the questions that pass through your thoughts and listen to your children’s too. Are they being answered and How?
