Blog Post 12

In our profession, as well as others, we will have days when we can't take it anymore. But to get through the day all we need is a good laugh to get us going back in the right direction. My assignment for you is to find a video that inspires you to keep your chin up and help you realize that things are not as bad as they seem. Also describe why this video helps make you smile or what message you gain from the video.



My inspirational video that helps get me through the day is about a puppy that was born into being a service dog for people with disabilities. As she grew older her natural instincts as a dog started kicking in and she became a hazard for the job they were training her for. Once they let her go she changed from a service dog to a SURFice dog. She started doing surfing shows as fundraisers for charitable events. The message I get from this video is this, no matter how bad things get or how difficult the task, we always have the ability to chose to make things better. We can either dwell on all the negatives or we can put all of our focus and energy into the positives in life to make a difference for others.

  1. This was an awesome video! People are always trying to be someone that they are not thinking it will better themselves, but when it comes down to it being yourself is what makes you YOU. There are some negative Nancy's out there, but being positive is what will help you through life. My sentence was "to always stay positive," and that is how I truly like to live my life
