Here are my key takeaways from this discussion:

1. Time is precious – you can’t get time back so make your choices about how you use your time. Be intentional with what you are doing, where you are going, who you are keeping relationships with. Don’t get sucked into things you don’t wish to do. You are free to choose how you use the precious, limited and unpredictable time you have left on earth.

2. Maintain the relationship with your loved ones and if you are a parent, do it even moreso, so that you can role model that behavior to them.

3. Stop apologizing for yourself. Be as authentic as possible. Sometimes people spend too much time and energy to get other people to like them. 

4. Things will go wrong – they always do thus, always be ready – so we don’t have to get ready when the need arises. If not, we will be in a consistent reactionary mode. We won’t learn, we won’t grow, and we won’t be able to use the changes as opportunities because we will be busy reacting to changes.

5. Don’t let people pull you into their noise. Understand what their end game is because you may have something better to give them for their purpose than what they are asking from you.

6. Have a plan. Plan to work and then work the plan.

I will bring you the 100th episode of Sharing Life Lessons in two weeks.  Until then, 'be happy, be safe and be blessed'.

The target audience for this episode is EVERYONE; especially those who are angry and frustrated with the almost daily mass killings.

I wanted to play my part to stop the mass shootings or rather any shooting at all. I decided to do what I do best. I decided to use my platform of Sharing Life Lessons to share knowledge of the Texas shooting and to call every to action so we can come together and end this madness!!

The word is belief. We can continue exchanging our good energy with others who will further exchange it with others and this good energy, this positive energy will reach the politicians in DC. This is the time for change individually and collectively, if we all want the same thing and we believe that things will change for the better. Then change will happen. Remember, we are one spirit. one soul, one world, we are all interconnected through our energy. Good has always triumphed over evil and it will happen again. Can we together help this process along? Can we together believe?
