warm%20fuzzy The Legend of the Warm Fuzzy!

My direct sales company has had a tradition of showing that we care not only by a hug and/or a handshake, but also by handing out a small pink puff of softness called a “Warm Fuzzy”. I have collected and passed out thousands of these through the years, but the first one that I personally received came from our founder herself when I met her. Of course, she told the story behind it, in great detail.

 

She is no longer with us, but her legacy continues. Although I am telling you this story from my own “fuzzy” memory, I will try to maintain as many details that I can remember from the way that she told it and we all loved!

 

Once upon a time there was a company that grew from a small storefront near Dallas Texas to a global success, empowering women along the way. This place where the company started was called the Happy Valley and it was filled with warm fuzzies. The name came from having many happy people living there and passing and sharing the warm fuzzies with one another. This valley was different from any other valley at that time (before computers, internet, and iphones) because the residents of Happy Valley gave each other a warm fuzzy each time they met, bringing about great happiness. It was an exchange that simply meant that they cared.warm%20fuzzy The Legend of the Warm Fuzzy!

 

The warm fuzzy tradition continued for many years and the happiness grew as fast as Happy Valley did, spreading wide and far. The one day, an ”evil one” decided that he didn’t like all this happiness. What could he do to stop them from being happy all the time and doing kind things for others? He started out by creating a rumor that there was a shortage of warm fuzzies.Then he told them about lots of other shiny new things that could make them even happier! People started to become fearful, and this interrupted their happiness.

 

Of course the residents of Happy Valley reacted the way that most of us would if we heard that there was a shortage. They started to look elsewhere for their happiness and hid their warm fuzzies in dark closets, and under the bed. They stopped going out and living life fully, meeting people and looking for ways to help them, they stayed home and began to believe everything that they heard or saw on the computer or television.

 

Soon people began to mistrust one another and fear, hate, and loneliness came to Happy Valley for the first time. After months without warm fuzzies turned into fuzziless years, Happy Valley became just like all the rest of the world.

 

Then one day a grandmother was looking through an old photo album with her grandchildren and remembered the story of the warm fuzzy. After telling them the story as she remembered it, the children became so excited that they immediately wanted to go to this Happy Valley and search for some warm fuzzies!warm%20fuzzy The Legend of the Warm Fuzzy!

 

Can you imagine the excitement as these children started to find these warm fuzzies? They immediately began to share them and they began to multiply! Once the adults saw how happy the children were who were once again sharing these soft pink puffs, they started to hand out warm fuzzies to everyone too, spreading the happiness even more and watching them multiply!

 

Within a short time valleys all over America were becoming happy! People were becoming filled with integrity, honesty, good feelings, dreaming big and reaching big goals! This movement started to spread all over the world!

 

Could this be the time to revive the warm fuzzy? Can you imagine what would happen if everyone started to give a warm fuzzy to everyone that they met all the time? A warm fuzzy is something that allows another person to feel special. It can be a hug, kiss, or random act of kindness. It could be reaching out to someone who is lonely or sick. Or it could be stopping to help a stranger who is stranded and out of gas or offering to watch a young mother’s children so that she can step out alone for a break.

All of our lives will be happier and more fulfilled by caring and sharing those warm fuzzies. What would happen if we all took the time to do this each and every day?

 

Well that is the story the way I remember it. If I left out anything, please comment and pass it on. You might even have a great day by doing so!
