So, today, I’m looking out the door of my office and thinking about a lot of different things.  I was thinking how hard marketing is, even though it seems like it would be really easy.  I was also thinking about the rain that was coming down at that moment, although not hard, but nevertheless, down it came.  I was thinking, while looking at a puddle with lots of bubbles caused by the rain drops, how it’s the simple things in life we should look to for happiness.  It occurred to me at that moment how rain is not just a simple thing, in fact, it is a monumental thing, especially if we had to go without it.  Some things are taken for granted way too often and way too easily, no?  I realized a real appreciation, I have had before, just re-kindled, for the rain today.  Appreciate all the little things because they might be monumental to someone else.  I actually thought about how it would feel to be looking at the rain from a hospital bed like the kids in St Jude Children s Research Hospital might be today.  Look, you really never know what someone is dealing with out there, so when you are faced with a situation, “Roadhouse Rule Number One”is “Be nice.” @StJude #StJudeChidrensResearchHospital #RoadhouseRules #myaumakua #AlohaFriday @DAV @Aloha
