I Feel Like a Steak!
Yes today, I feel like a steak. No, I don’t actually feel like a steak, but I’d like to eat one! OK, so today I’d like to eat a steak! Gosh, I need to explain. I live in rather a small town and if something new pops up, well, everyone wants to know about it and I’m no exception. Recently, in the local paper was a full page color ad for a new restaurant, Joe’s Steakhouse. Wow! Now I do recall a place being renovated on my weekend jaunts to feed lonely horses with my sweet one and it’s but a country mile from my home … who knew! I had to check to see if they had a website (if not, I’d be all over it of course) and they do and it’s nice and welcoming. I think I’m going to like Joe’s.
No, I Don’t Know Them and I’m Not Looking for a Free Meal.
Now I swear these people don’t have a clue I even exist and I’m not plugging them for a free meal. I can’t give a food review and why would anyone care because most who would read this are quite a good distance. (I don’t think Front Royal is on anyone’s bucket list. Too bad for them.) The only review I can give is what the inside looks like (from their website) and well … its “steakhouse-ish”. It’s a definite goal on my list; a future reward. The point to all this is, I love a good story and every small business has one. I love Joe’s story … it’s short, sweet, and it’s inspiring. I won’t spoil it you’ll have to read it.
Work Smarter, Not Harder.
WebsitesGiveBack has recently decided to make some significant changes. Some hard lessons learned – the biggest being “work smarter, not harder”. We’ve spent the last two years working extremely hard and that journey has led us to this chapter. We’ve been strictly a website design company and now we have added videos to use for websites, social media and various marketing. They’re made to inform, educate and entertain the businesses they feature. We’re pretty excited and today is the first page in this new chapter. Today we eat steak!
Today like all others, is an opportunity
to new start
to change things
to make things right
to end bad habits
to make new goals
to forgive and to forget
to love again
to say your sorry and make amends
to tear down and to rebuild
to add on
and take away
it’s my opportunity – it’s your opportunity
What If I’m a Vegetarian?
I know, I know … Jack is going to ask, “What if you’re a vegetarian?” and Bill will say something along the lines of, “What kind of steak?” or “What if I want a hamburger instead?” Ah, but were talkin’ Mr. Dorman and anything with food, he’s in! But getting back … don’t be afraid to change directions or take a flying leap (in a good way!). Be forgiving of yourself and know that whatever it is you do today, it’s the past - your journey filled with all the ups and downs and twist and turns that brought you to this very moment and that’s a good thing! Always … be courageous!
