Energy vampires

Someone sent me one of those "forward" emails today - lots of quotes with stock photos and a harp playing in the background. I must admit this one was pretty enjoyable. There was one quote that really spoke to me. "Smile and laugh more. It will keep the energy vampires away." Isn't that great? Granted, I am one of those people who loves to laugh and evidently I smile a lot. I have recently reconnected with some folks from high school and everyone of them has said, "I remember your smile." So often we all feel so tired and so drained. We run around like crazy folks most of the time and then we sit down and say, "Whew. I'm tired." From now on, I'm going to think about those energy vampires - sucking the life out of me and I'm going to smile and then maybe I'm going to laugh out loud!!
