Great mtoivation Alan K. I knew these quotes and this topic would be right on point for your brother. I don;t think I've ever seen or heard you not be upbeat every day here on RallyPoint. You, Stevie, and the family have an upbeat weekend my friend...

"Being upbeat is an attitude, a positive attitude that gets others and those around you feeling the same way. Why be a "Debbie Downer" when you can be upbeat. The choice is really ours when you think about it. Be that person that is the great role model for others to emulate, be an effective listener and communicate with positivity. Be creative and instill that creativeness in others. May you always that spark that sparks others in a positive fashion; may you always have the energy and stamina to get others motivative and inspire; and keep your family safe, secure, happy, and healthy. Be all you can be - be upbeat, positive, and happy this weekend." — COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs

Ever heard of Floore's County Store in Helotes, Texas? The lady who owns it is our next-door neighbor. Check out the website at liveatfloores.com. Saw Willie there several years ago, watched his show from the bed of my pickup outside their fence. (Can no longer do that, since they raised the height of the fence; still hear the music, though)

COL Mikel Burroughs good read/share: for the Colonel's Motivational Quotes of the Day. Where the mighty American Bald Eagles roam in the mighty MOUNTAINS OF CASTLE ROCK, COLORADO AMONG THIER EAGLES-NEST. I know the view must be MAGNIFICENT on this day October 3, 2020 as you might glance upon the mighty snow capped mountains headed into the month of November. As you know I would respond a lot throughout the week, but I am full-time DOD employee doing contracts for the Defense Contracting Management Agency. It is good to have some time on the weekend before I start my running around to respond my friend.

Today's theme is "Upbeat Day" I quote, “People will always criticize. Stay upbeat and love yourself! There’s nothing wiring with being different.” — Krystal
