Really enjoyed your last show. This was the comments about the importance of Dads.

Nora Firestone  

Nora Firestone, Hampton Roads-based newspaper reporter and founder of ThankingOfYou.com, will discuss the effects of gratitude and similar virtues on the every-day human experience. Firestone will share stories and conduct interviews designed to illuminate and affirm that indeed, "No act of kindness, no matter how small is ever wasted" (Aesop)and that gratitude, by nature, is a perpetual, giving and fruitful force. Gratitude is a force that often drives its recipients to create and achieve great things despite the odds, the history and the nay-sayers. The expression of gratitude, even decades after an act, affirms life and life-purpose. Such are the words that never appeared at the bottom of our teachers' paychecks; may never have reached the boss until his retirement; might be the lift someone in your life needs today. This is the stuff of real legacies. Share your stories.

    The Blogue: Say Thank You to Anyone, Anywhere

    Happy Thanksgiving week! How to express your gratitude? Today's show is dedicated to the listeners and all who have made a difference in their lives! Can't hear the show? Click the Host Name, then click PLAY arrow in audio box. Call in during live show and tell us who you're grateful for and why! Think teachers, care-givers, parents, mentors, good friends, rescue workers, charities, etc. We want to hear from you. And if you need a lift, not feeling too grateful this week, all the more reason for you to call in for a shift in mindset before starting another day! "Gratitude doesn't erase hardship, rather it transcends circumstance and promotes a sort of perpetual positivity despite what's happening at another level. It enables us to focus on what's workable within difficult situations. Inherent in its 'DNA' are the blueprints for the inspiration of great acts and the realization of profound joy. The more you're thankful, the more 'You're welcome.' Furthermore, the recognition of one's own strengths, supports, gifts and good fortune illuminates such positivity and fosters the joy of sharing it."

    "Gratitude Central" Children's Hospice: How to Help Grieving Families Through the Holidays

    (Click PLAY arrow) Children’s Hospice. The two words just don't sound right together, do they? Host Nora Firestone had first heard of Children's Hospice only a few years back, when a mural artist and dear friend asked her to volunteer to give Edmarc Hospice for Children, in Portsmouth, Va., an interior “face lift.” They’d hoped also to be giving a “spirit lift,” but realized that there’s only so much a team can do with a few cans of paint and the best of intentions. In fact many of us can count our “lucky stars” for never needing to know that such a service exists. But it does. And it does wonders to assist families and their children facing end-of-life issues so prematurely. In fact, last year, almost 1.5 million patients from across the nation received hospice care, according to the National Hospice and Palliative Care Organization, said a recent article in the Northwest Herald. If you know of a family who’s child is in Hospice care, or if you’d simply like to learn more, listen to our radio show at 8 a.m. ET Sunday, November 15. Guests Debbie Stitzer-Brame, executive director at Edmarc; Anne Chisman, Bereavement program director; and Wendy Mezzenga, the gracious mother of an Edmarc child, will discuss the significance of Hospice for children and how we can best reach out to grieving families and offer the help they need at a most difficult time in their lives. “Grief through the holidays is like a tidal wave,” notes Stitzer-Brame. What better time for us all to learn how we can make a difference in the lives of the families facing the recent or pending loss of a beloved child?

    Author Stacey Grewal on "Gratitude Central" Station

    Host Nora Firestone welcomes Stacey Grewal, author of "Gratitude and Goals," for a look back at Grewal's own struggles to rise above adversity and despair and at the role gratitude has played in her ability to turn her life around. Gratitude illuminates the good in situations. Even bad situations. Gratitude doesn't erase hardship, rather it transcends circumstance and promotes a sort of perpetual positivity despite what's happening at another level. Inherent in its "DNA" are the blueprints for the inspiration of great acts and the realization of profound joy. The more you're thankful, the more "You're welcome." Furthermore, the recognition of one's own strengths, supports, gifts and good fortune illuminates such positivity and fosters the joy of sharing it.
