We're all quick to judge, certainly at times. I find myself tucked under a blanket this cool, LOVELY May morning...listening to the sounds in my back forest, activity under cover of green, always exciting, fresh, new, settling to me. I yesterday worked with my favorite healer/massage therapist, Janice Davy. Her combination of disciplines ALWAYS leaves [...]
Rise from the very beliefs, habits, associations, which hold us back from our true desires and potential. Might nature guide us back to the places where we feel most alive? Might sitting with our breath awhile remind us of other places we might arrive within ourselves? I have felt over the last weeks the pull [...]
This quote graced my inbox this morning.... "Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend. Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today, and creates a vision for [...]
Be the change.... Be the change.... Be the change.... [youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JEvSJlRc9kM&w=480&h=390] Symbols everywhere. Open those precious eyes. It's all here for us. Be the change you want to see! Be the change. Really, all one has to do to transform their life, is remind themselves to think and behave a little bit differently, each day. [...]
I am most definitely aware of my deficiencies. I am also becoming more aware of where I am not so deficient, expecting myself to be good at it all less and less. Oooooh, but I'm a task master to my very own soul. Oh Popeye....he am what I am what you are. I'm over half [...]
I like goldfish. I like the goldfish I've raised. I like 'raising' things...businesses, little wee animals, growing plants...it's where my mothering instincts come out, maybe? Creating, mothering....they're kind of the same. But these fish. Oh, you may have read my several blogs about my fish, one where little Saska bit the dust...DAMN, it was traumatic...and [...]
I had a young man working in my organization not so long ago. A tall, good looking, sweet and capable young man. He was caught drinking Carl House alcohol on the job. I had to let him go. In letting him go, I offered that I would not abandon him, but rather walk alongside him [...]
I don't like restriction or limits. I'm often my own worst enemy as I'll jot things on my calendar, some of the things on that dratted 'should' list. And if I don't want to do it, I don't. Who SAID I need to work out at 5pm. I'm going to make it 6pm or tomorrow. [...]
Our nuclear family, as we all know, is not what Ozzie and Harriet portrayed in the 50s....not one bit. I own and run a special event venue.....a lovely one in fact. I get teary with each bride I send down the aisle....hopeful that what they are putting out to the Universe, hopes, dreams what-have-you....might [...]
If you've been reading my blog awhile, you'll know perhaps that one of MY favorite things, on this earthly planet, is time alone, snugged in my bed in the morning, computer on my lap and a cup of joe by my side. Learning to be by oneself, relish the moments, taking the time to be [...]
