I came across something this morning and wanted to share it with you all; now that our first BE the Difference campaign has begun, I thought it was fitting....
'You don't have to know a lot of things for your life to make a lasting difference in the world. But you do have to know the few great things that matter, and then be willing to live for them and die for them. The people that make a durable difference in the world are not the people who have mastered many things, but who have been mastered by a few great things. If you want your life to count, if you want the ripple effect of the pebbles you drop to become waves that reach the ends of the earch and roll on for centuries and into eternity, you don't have to have a high IQ or EQ; you don't have to have good looks or riches; you don't have to come from a fine family or a fine school. You have to know a few great, majestic, unchanging, obvious, simple, glorious things, and be set on fire by them.' ~ John Piper
We've got another fun contest for you today! Tricia Rivas from Judy's Hair Co (DBA Trixie's) joined us in the studio last Friday to share some fun makeup tips and tricks, and also to share the latest Spring trends and color palettes. We had so much fun, I apologize ahead of time for all of the giggles in the video! Same rules as last time, simply watch the video to find the answer to the contest question, and then send your answer to Teresa@BeWomenOnline.com by 5pm today! One lucky name will be drawn and he/she will have the choice of receiving either a complimentary haircut from Tricia OR a makeup consultation!
And to have your name entered for a 3rd time, post one positive thing about yourself (could be something you are talented at, etc) on our Facebook page, www.Facebook.com/BEgirls
Again, there is a possibility to have your name entered into the drawing 3 times! Be sure to tell me in your email if you utilized your Facebook or Twitter pages for the additional entries! Happy watching everyone! CONTEST QUESTION: WHAT DOES TRICIA REFER TO THIS SEASON AS (THINK MOVIE TITLE!!)??
Ah, the sun is shining! I know the ice weighing down the trees isn't necessarily good for them, but it was SO BEAUTIFUL to look at this morning! It's amazing how your mind eventually shifts and you start looking for beauty in this long winter we're having!
