Well well, another year is almost in the books. Good job on your new year’s resolutions! I trust you remembered them all. Renew them in 2014 if need be.
May your tree be stocked with nuts for the cold months ahead, and your team hold on to the pigskin.
Do something nice for someone, not just around the holidays, but all of the time. It seems around Christmas a lot of folks will donate to the bucket by the bell ringer, volunteer to help those in need, drop off a toy for Toys for Tots or otherwise help out some area children, and that’s great! Please give how you feel led.
Keep that spirit all through the year, though. Don’t let a token deed of generosity in the winter suffice for all year. Volunteer in April. I’ll remind you then.
Here is your latest Pulse edition, all wrapped up in a neat little package for you. (But where’s the bow?!) We got your Frosty Fun Run, got your Bethlehem Marketplace; read about the Blue Raiders and area art exhibits. A Bee Gee came to the ’Boro, Read to Succeed has unveiled the latest One Book selection and a new Call of Duty is out. Find hope in the story of the Christmas truce of 99 years ago, or the Bible, then take in some St. Nicholas, consumerism-resistance, Celebrate Recovery and global warming information.
Win stuff!!
Check out the gift guide right here, and there’s a chance to score a guitar, a killer shaving set, clothing, oddities and endities, MTSU gear, toys, collectibles and much more from our loyal sponsors (you know, the awesome group of area businesses responsible for the Pulse continuing to roll off the press). Gifts for you!
Make your gift exchanges about joy and giving, not greed and consumerism.
I believe respect for others would solve most of the problems in the world. Just think of the Golden Rule, think of the other individual, not just yourself, and your words, actions and work will have a positive impact. Respect all of your fellow humans, animals and nature. Each person and sunrise is a miracle!
Do what your’re good at and passionate about, create something wonderful, and then let the Pulse know about it. We will try and share it with our audience. There’s more to the Pulse than dead trees and soy-based ink. It’s ideas and fun and community!
Anyone want to start the Murfreesboro Informal Athletic Association? We’ll play some football, volleyball, go on some runs, organize some friendlies (recreational soccer matches). Let’s do it. bracken@boropulse.com.
Well, I’ve rambled on enough.
Ya’ll ramble on now.
Peace,
Bracken Mayo
