Time to Go....

It has been a very interesting first couple of months here in 2009. So much going on, so much news to share. Unfortunately, most of the highlighted news reported has been "bad news." So much negative news is being "shared" that I hear more people, daily, finally say "I've had enough!" I am not watching the news anymore ! People are fearful, end up in tears, just watching the news or reading a newspaper. (online or print, doesn't matter

I respect our media, I truly do, but can't we focus on some "good news" for a change? We can't bury our heads in the sand, but we can shed some light and good news with each other more often. We all need it....so reach out and share some good news. With all the wonderful social media outlets these days, we should be able to make somebody smile !

"Time to go" is what we are hearing from our clients. Travel and cruise rates have never been so reasonable! For the larger group of the population still employed, people are trading the negative news for a vacation to escape! Vacations (yes, I have a slighted opinion here) are truly necessary in today's world. A wonderful cruise, a white sand beach, crystal blue waters, palm trees,music and great friends appears to be the growing choice today. People can just turn up their IPods and tune out the news for a week. Sounds great - maybe I should go

I'm glad the travel industry is doing their part to to uplift the spirits of people today. Tune out the world, tune into your own!

I wish you all a great vacation sometime soon.
