Dear Monday,  Thanks for having the word "mon" in you.  

That's french for "min", in case you weren't aware.

Monday, it makes me think of you more as "my day",

and frankly that sounds like a much more promising start of the week.

Sincerely,

No

Today is the 70th anniversary of the D-Day Landings - let their sacrifice not be in vain.

Service is a smile.

It is an acknowledging wave, a reaching handshake, a friendly wink, and a warm hug.

It's these simple acts that matter most, because the greatest service to a human soul has always been the kindness of recognition.

Collect Moments, not Things.
