Hello Thomas - with Oprah's words in mind, Whiskey seems headed for a more pawsitive experience in daily living.  Furget those very ruff-ruff times!  🐾

Michael Jacobs Your keen observations about dogs are paws-itively brilliant! It's clear you have a fur-tunate knack for seeing things from a pup's perspective. Keep up the pawsome work! 🐾

Whiskey is such a wise four legged friend. Each day my husband and I hug and kiss each other because we are grateful that we are still here and living a life of peace and joy. Thank you for sharing this quote.

Thomas J. Nelson, REALTOR ® CRS,ABR,PSA,RCS-D, CFSP

That's a great daily policy. Ailina and I kiss and say I love you daily too, and we occasionally leave each other love notes. It's our 22 years of marriage secret sauce...leave no doubts how we feel about each other.

Hi Thomas and Whsikey- I make it a point to try and see the positive in people and events. When we embrace that, it's like a magnet...good things come to us. 

Nov 30, 2024 07:21 PM
Thomas J. Nelson, REALTOR ® CRS,ABR,PSA,RCS-D, CFSP

Kathy Streib you indeed have a reputation for a positive and an abundance-based demeaner- gratitude is certainly an obvious trait about you too!

Good morning, Thomas... I'm not an Oprah Winfrey fan, but I do agree with her quote. I believe it was Anne Frank who said "no one ever became poor by giving."

Dec 01, 2024 06:22 AM
Thomas J. Nelson, REALTOR ® CRS,ABR,PSA,RCS-D, CFSP

It takes an evolved individual to embrace the lesson, even when the source isn’t particularly appealing. Good on you Nina Hollander, Broker and thank you for the cute Thanksgiving card, Ailina Nelson and Whiskey enjoyed it too!

Yes indeed, there is so much that is positive in our lives. Looking for those things we can be grateful for is a wonderful skill to have.

Dec 01, 2024 06:41 AM
Thomas J. Nelson, REALTOR ® CRS,ABR,PSA,RCS-D, CFSP

Kat Palmiotti - you're so right, it is a skill, because many do not know how to do it daily, it takes proactive habits which get developed into a skill for it.

From that Pups PERSPECTIVE, life is very good and that pup is very FURtunate to have you as a master.  or is it the other way around?

Very much the other way around Peter Mohylsky, Destin BeachPro 🤣
