As you know, Haiti suffered a mind-numbing 7.0 Earthquake on January 12th, 2010, leaving the impoverished Caribbean nation in shambles.

We Americans have just come off one of the worst economic years in decades. Much has been said about how bad things are economically around the globe, and stories of hardship have been plenty.

In my opinion, all that ended on Tuesday, when the capital city of Port-au-Prince was literally reduced to rubble. With a population of approximately 1.7 million, the estimates of death are possibly hundereds of thousands. This means that for 1.5 million people, there will be no water, no food, no government infustructure. In other words, CHAOS. There is no escaping the fact that this country will suffer unimaginable hardship for a very long time.

Some days we go to bed so tired that we hardly remember the day we just had.
Life can take a toll on the best of spirits, throwing you curve balls when you least
expect it (or can least afford it). But no matter what, it is important that you never
get so tired that you forget the people who are there to help you, even if they
aren’t always prominent in your day to day life. Likewise, when we are at our highest,
and feeling indestructable, there are always people in your life that you can
think about and know they helped you be happy, or successful.

This quote pretty much sums up exactly the purpose of my video.

“No one who achieves success does so without acknowledging the help of others. The wise and confident acknowledge this help with gratitude.”

The source is unkown, but the words ring true for all of us.
Be appreciative. Acknowlege those who have are are helping you. No matter what kind
of day you are having….

So, Thank you!
