Good morning friends.

Its great to be alive on Sept 3rd, 2015.  Good, bad or indifferent, today is a gift. This picture means a lot to my family and I.  My mother and I were in Central Park, this is June or July of 2012. It was just at the time when we were forced to start over from the very beginning again.

Its funny, looking back on this picture I knew the work that had be done and it felt overwhelming because I was still trading full time during this period.  But that’s the thing about life, you have to take it one day at a time.  Look at what has been created one day at a time since the summer of 2012. We created Dr. Harp Seal, an ambassador for animal kindness around the world, the daily inspirational morning posts, The Good News Channel and the amazing people we’ve connected with from that, The evening “Thoughts & Prayers” for animals and people in need, the Movie Rewrites and etc.

The point I’m making is, it’s one day at a time.  That’s how the ELS house was built.  If we put in the work, we will get the results.  There are no short cuts.  And through it all, the best part of everything the Smith Family has built, is with all of you, our animal loving friends from around the Globe.

A fun little play on words from the movie Troy.  “When I’m gone, let them say I surfed with giants. When I’m gone, let them say I lived in a time of Dr. Harp Seal.” 

OK, for all our new friends I have included this link to an Audio of where the saying; “Sammy Loves the World” came from. – It’s not just a slogan, its real story. To hear Audio, click link; https://soundcloud.com/dr-harp-seal/the-story-of-sammy-loves-the-world

If you want to read how the seeds that were planted in my head in 2000 catapulted the Smith Family into Social Media.  It was those seeds that took me out of Wall Street and gave me my greatest passion of all; The ELS Family, click link;  http://www.everybodylovessammy.com/nasdaq-5000-and-sammy-family-15-years-in-the-making/ 

Happy Throwback Thursday friends.  See you tonight.
