What’s Your Temperature

What’s Your Temperature?

The average body temperature for humans is widely acknowledged to be 98.6°F (37°C).

When do we actually take our temperature? These days it is quite common and often mandatory for employees to have their temperature taken when entering employer premises. Enter a clinic and receptionists have us fill out a form concerning how we feel or what symptoms we are exhibiting. The nursing aide calls your name and one of the first tasks performed is taking our temperature.

Every time I visit wonderful mom in her assisted living facility I take my temperature and fill out a form. Today I’m guessing most airlines ask passengers to take their temperatures prior to boarding.

How often do we take a temperature of our minds and souls? If we are responsible for our journeys, answering the following questions might provide some enlightenment and illumination:

1) Who am I?
2) How do I feel?
3) What am I doing?
4) Where am I at?
5) What does it mean?
6) What is my purpose?

Ladies and gentlemen, this is called taking a temperature reading. It is one of the most important exercises we can undertake at no expense. At the very least I’m going to suggest that a quarterly self-examination take place.

You and I are responsible for our happiness and fulfillment. We cannot point our fingers at anyone else. We are the captains of our ships; let no one deter our direction and claim our routing.

My friends please remember this: respect, consideration, and courtesy matter a lot. Practice the Golden Rule.

Build your moral compasses carefully and always monitor them daily.

You know the battle cry: do your best each day. No one can ask more or less from any of us.
