Meet Pork Chop. Pork Chop has no mother. You see, his mother died in labor trying desperately to give him life. She died on the table at an Emergency Vet Clinic, as well as all of the other pups in the litter. Pork Chop was the sole survivor. Now, as if that wasn't bad enough, the owners then abandoned him at the clinic. Facing certain death, and against all odds, this little guy, coupled with the staff at the clinic, refused to die. He was eye-dropper fed until he was old enough to eat on his own. Fostered until he was adoptable, Pork Chop thrived. Now he has made his home with us. This is my third grand-dog. The others are huge, weighing nearly 100 pounds each, Pork Chop knows no fear in life. He treats the others as though they are his equals, and even tries to play with the cat (although he may have met his match with her). What hardships has life thrown at you? What do you need to overcome? Maybe you need a little help getting started. Maybe you are the one that refuses to give up. When life throws everything at you, do you just lay down and die? Or do you fight, knowing that something better is just around the corner. If this little guy can defy the odds and grow to be a little man, then so can you. Be a Pork Chop!

Re-invent the impossible. ~Lori Loretta Sinclair www.SinclairInkSpot.com http://www.sinclairinkspot.com/the-impossibilities-blog.html Growing up my mother told me, "You can do anything! Never let anybody ever tell you that you can't." I believed her when she said it. In fact, I still do. There's nothing that I am truly afraid to try. It took me decades to realize that she never believed that about herself. When life beats us down, it is easy to get caught up in the pity party of "why me?" But when we look past ourselves, to the life around us, things take on a whole new perspective. Remember the old saying" God will never put you through more than you can handle?" Well, nobody ever looks at why we are handling things. Nothing is an accident. We are all here, right where we need to be, for a reason. Sometimes that reason is only known to Him. Sometimes that "higher calling" doesn't come in the form that we want it to. Sometimes things don't fit neatly into our little box called life. What we need to do is to break out of the box. Don't let anyone ever stuff you into their box of judgement - whether it be judgement of themselves, or of you. Sure they might get angry when you fight against it, but a true relationship will weather the storm. I wish that my mother could see her accomplishments through me. She raised me to be a self-sufficient, successful business woman, author, entrepreneur, mother, daughter, friend, and believer. Everything that she feels like life cheated her out of. Yet, here we are, right in front of each other. We did it. Both of us, together. Open your eyes, look past yourself and into the eyes of those looking back at you. What do you see? Can you see life differently? Have this blog delivered right to your Kindle See life differently. Re-invent the impossible. ~Lori Loretta Sinclair www.SinclairInkSpot.com http://www.sinclairinkspot.com/the-impossibilities-blog.html You can't move an immovable object.You can't teach someone who won't learn. And you can't change someone who does not want to change. We can only be responsible for ourselves. Be an example. Let your light shine. And in being that person that is happy and tackling the world on your own, you will inspire others to follow you. Be a great leader. Inspire others to greatness. Lead in such a way that others have no choice but to follow you, because you are following something greater than yourself. God works in mysterious ways.

Re-invent the impossible. ~Lori Loretta Sinclair www.SinclairInkSpot.com http://www.sinclairinkspot.com/the-impossibilities-blog.html Try this summertime trick. Freeze some snacks or some of their favorite toys in a giant block of ice. They can keep cool trying to get them out. You can freeze: plastic of rubber toys small chunks of chicken or beef jerkey treats basically anything that won't dissolve in the fluid. Have fun with it. They will love it too.

Re-invent the impossible. ~Lori Loretta Sinclair www.SinclairInkSpot.com http://www.sinclairinkspot.com/the-impossibilities-blog.html Unfortunately this is more true than I would care to admit. But the fact is, that if you want to evoke change, you must be the one to initiate it. Most of the time that means standing - often times alone - against the crowd. It's easy to turn a blind eye to wrong. It takes no courage whatsoever to allow wrongs that happen around you. Complacency will breed discontent. Everybody is unhappy. Nobody knows why. And nobody will do anything about it. Except, maybe one. Be a leader. Be the one. Make a change in your little corner of the world. Because: Nothing changes, if nothing changes.
