Research<br />shows that this isn’t a gift or a talent – it’s a skill that they<br />have developed. Surprised? Well, the real surprise is that you<br />too can put to work their techniques and make your life happier<br />too.</p><p>1. Happy people cooperate with life.<br />Each person has a destiny to fulfill. You can fight it or<br />cooperate with it. Does that mean you just lay back and let life<br />happen? No. But you can adopt the attitude that you will play<br />the cards you are dealt the very best you can. When you begin to<br />cooperate with life, you will notice new ways in which you are<br />motivated. Life wants you to realize your destiny. Wouldn’t you<br />rather cooperate than battle with life?</p><p>2. Happy people don’t just think positive, they act positive.<br />Thinking positive definitely has its place, and you’ll need to<br />change your thoughts to ever be truly happy. But don’t wait on<br />the feelings to come. You have direct control over how you act<br />and what you think (feelings and physiology are indirectly<br />affected). If you want to be a happier person, act happier. If<br />you want to be a more compassionate person, act more<br />compassionate. If you want to be a friendlier person, act<br />friendlier. The feelings will follow.</p><p>3. Happy people ask for what they need.<br />Good things don’t generally just fall out of the sky. Complaining<br />gets you nothing, except to attract you to other complainers. If<br />you believe that “you reap what you sow”, then asking for what<br />you want makes much more sense than sowing complaints. It’s your<br />choice-- you can choose to point fingers and assign blame, and<br />still end up with nothing. Or you can simply ask.</p><p>4. Happy people are willing to change.<br />It’s contrary to all laws of nature for things to stand still. <br />If you try to make that happen, you’ll always be disappointed. <br />If you let fear of change stop you, you are in essence *agreeing*<br />to not having what you want. You can believe that change will<br />harm you and resist it. Or you can embrace it and believe that<br />it will help you. It all depends on what you decide to believe.</p><p>5. Happy people don’t allow themselves to be defeated.<br />A failure or set back does not mean that the goal will never be<br />yours, nor is it evidence that you should quit. It simply means<br />that you need more practice, more experience. Be willing to make<br />mistakes. Don’t give up. Don’t allow one slipup, or setback<br />from the outside, influence you to erase all the progress you’ve<br />made. Feel the joy of the finish line!</p><p>6. Happy people live in the present.<br />If you are alert to the present, and anticipating the future, you<br />are better able to take advantage of opportunities. If you are<br />brooding over the past, you’ll be blinded to present<br />possibilities, and lose the advantage for future prospects. A<br />happy life is the product of living a great present. And a well<br />lived present is a guarantee of a wonderful future. You can only<br />affect your future by what you do today.</p><p>7. Happy people plan ahead.<br />Happy people know that they must exercise mastery in their lives,<br />show control in their life in order to guard against feelings of<br />being helpless and victims. Planning is essential to getting<br />things done. Planning is essential to making sure you are<br />spending time on your priorities, and not just the next thing<br />that gets your attention. Plan for what’s important to you, and<br />choose to spend your limited time, money, energy, and resources<br />on it.<br />-----------------------<br />Kathy Gates is a Professional Life Coach in Scottsdale AZ.

It is no exaggeration to say you are a GIFT to the<br />world.</p><p>US Congressman Tribble told a story about teaching his<br />daughter that she was her own person. Wherever she went, the little<br />girl was constantly associated with her father. "Oh, you must be<br />Congressman Tribble's daughter," well-intentioned adults would coo.</p><p>She explained to her parents that she wanted to be herself, not simply<br />known as Congressman Tribble's little girl. Her father told her not to<br />worry about it. Her mother, who perhaps understood the problem better,<br />suggested, "The next time that happens, just stand right up and say,'I<br />am Constance Tribble!'"</p><p>The opportunity arose just a few days later. A group of people met her<br />and when they heard her name, they said, "Why, Congressman Tribble<br />must be your father!" Constance looked right back at them and said,<br />"Oh, no! That's not what my mother says!"</p><p>We can be assured than Congressman Tribble was her father, but that<br />fact was only a part of who Constance Tribble is. She rightly<br />believed herself to be unique, and she wanted to be known as her own<br />person.</p><p>You are unique. Do you value that which makes you different? For<br />nobody in the world has quite the mix of your perspective, your sense<br />of humor, your skills and abilities and your potential. No one can be<br />YOU as well as you can be you. You are an original, the likes of which<br />the world has never before seen.</p><p>Writer Robert Zend quips, "People have one thing in common -- they are<br />all different."

Looking outside the window, the sun's<br />glow compelled me to draw closer to the window, to bask in its<br />warmth. Oh, that was so neat! It felt like Spring had arrived!</p><p> So, I (this person who vowed to never experience the outdoors<br />until winter had passed) decided to briefly enjoy the weather and<br />took off for a quick shopping spree; dressed in apparent Spring<br />apparel, as I like to plan ahead.</p><p> Of course, all was decently warm, as I got into my non-heated<br />but sheltered car, parked inside the garage. Ok, so it was a<br />little chilly. But, being brave as I am, I knew I could handle<br />it.</p><p> Though I forget what the initial temperature read, I'm<br />thinking it might have been in the upper thirties (on the inside<br />of the garage). Still optimistic, upper 30's wasn't too bad; as<br />long as I didn't stay out doors for very long.</p><p> Wow! My kids would be so proud of me, venturing out like<br />this. And hey, the roads weren't too bad; another sign of it<br />being a warmer day.</p><p> My first stop was at Menards, to make a return and to check<br />out any new rebate offers.</p><p> As I got out of my car, it seemed a bit more chilly than<br />expected. So, I walked a bit briskly to get inside ... and the<br />closest door was plenty good enough for me.</p><p> There were only a couple rebate opportunities worth<br />considering. However, Christmas decorations were now 75% off.<br />So, I ventured over to those isles and choose 3 rolls of<br />Christmas wrapping paper that I had previously noticed, and sort<br />of liked; only, I hadn't liked the price before.</p><p> Then, while going through check out, the cashier discovered<br />that the price of these rolls had already been reduced 75% and,<br />after inquiry to be certain, the cashier took another 75% off.<br />So, that made this nicer wrapping paper only 22 cents per roll!<br />Oh, my stars! I had struck gold!</p><p> However, the manager on duty didn't think it would be a good<br />idea for me to return into the store, with my already purchased<br />merchandise. And, brave as I was, only once was enough for<br />having to go outdoors again.</p><p> So, with receipt in hand, I parked my cart and grabbed<br />another one handy, then returned to Menards' collection of 'left<br />over' Christmas wrapping paper; no doubt 'left over' only because<br />they had originally charged an arm and a leg for these babies.<br />But, spendthrift as I am, I had kept my limbs perfectly in tact.</p><p> And of course, with a deal like this and me with nine<br />grandchildren, I was quick to clean Menards out of all their<br />nicer wrapping paper.</p><p> Altogether, it was only fifty-one rolls. Sure, some rolls<br />only had 10 ft. of paper on them. Though, I'll have some of the<br />prettiest packages in town; ok, for maybe two, three, or four<br />years. But, hey, who's counting?</p><p> As for the remaining customers who suddenly left the check<br />out lanes, "Too late, ladies, they're all mine!"</p><p> But, as you might have guessed, being that Menards is quite<br />frugal in bagging their merchandise, it was work getting the<br />paper to not fall out of the cart. Fortunately, in my great<br />wisdom and strategic planning, I had parked close to the exit<br />door.</p><p> Now, to face the cold. (There is a reason why we call it<br />'bitter. It actually hurts!) I hurried to get those rolls to<br />the trunk and only dropped one as I skidded toward the car.</p><p> Do you know how many times it takes to put fifty-one rolls<br />into a trunk while only picking up three rolls at a time, so not<br />to also have to pick up others off the ground? Ok, so you have<br />bigger hands. Well, good for you. I'll let you help, next time.</p><p> The outside temperature registered to be 18 degrees. And, on<br />top of that, if you haven't experienced the Northern winds, you<br />know nothing yet of cold. The inside of a refrigerator is warmer<br />than here. What was I thinking?</p><p> Mustering all the common sense that remained within me, I<br />made the conclusion it was time to put on my coat.</p><p> Being that it was only as far as the next corner and the fact<br />that they carry some of my most favorite 'no brand name' junk<br />food, the next stop was Aldi's; where someone had left a cart in<br />the parking lot. No doubt, they hadn't worn a coat, either.</p><p> So, I saved another 25 cents and the nice part is that the<br />cart was still warm! Therefore, it was with quick speed that I<br />made it inside the store. (Awe, warmth! We should never be<br />without it.)</p><p> Another shopper said, "This is much warmer than yesterday,"<br />and all she wore extra were gloves. Isn't that just like people,<br />to rub it in?</p><p> As it worked out, I guessed and managed, and didn't spend<br />more than the unplanned cash in my billfold. And with that, now<br />I know to only put half as much in your cart and you won't run<br />out of money.</p><p> However, with my mad dash for sunshine (which was now gone<br />'only God knows where'), I had forgotten to bring grocery bags<br />(or even to grab empty boxes in the store) and there was no way I<br />was purchasing store bags and squander my savings; even if they<br />are only 3 cents each.</p><p> Therefore, as you might have guessed, groceries were strewn,<br />into the back seat of the car, the quickest way they would land.<br />But hey, I got the quarter out of the cart before leaving. Sure,<br />I had spent forty some dollars there. But, I came out a quarter<br />richer. Now, you can't beat that. Though, I sure am glad they<br />didn't require blood!</p><p> The next stop was to get gasoline, only because hubby said I<br />needed to. If anyone had asked me, I'd rather have strolled into<br />the garage on fumes.</p><p> And of course, this gas station just happened to be one of<br />those with a nasty sign that says you actually have to remain<br />outside of the car until the gas pump stops. The next time, I<br />may just fill up the car when the gas tank is almost full ~ as I<br />was the one shrunk behind the pump, hiding from the wind. For<br />real, I could have peed faster than this!</p><p> But, as they say, "All is well that ends well," and I finally<br />made it home. However, by the time I got all the groceries drug<br />from out of the car, on both sides, I was beginning to have<br />visions of grandeur.</p><p> The computer chair looked like such a cozy retreat, it was<br />calling my name. Only, wouldn't you know, groceries still needed<br />putting away. I declare, a woman's work is never done. I think<br />I heard that somewhere before. But, as luck would have it, I,<br />somehow, survived.</p><p> As for the rolls of Christmas wrapping paper still in the<br />trunk, who cares?</p><p> The following day, I opened the trunk of the car and showed<br />hubby my great find; and got crowned Queen Shopper for a Day. He<br />was so pleased at the savings that he took care of putting away<br />the rolls of paper.</p><p> It's a good thing that we actually have places to store these<br />special finds. So, be forewarned, Wal-Mart, on the next sun<br />shining day, I'll be headed your way!</p><p> Though, in the event you haven't guessed, the moral of this<br />story is ... even if the sun is shining, as long as there is<br />still snow on the ground, it's just a mirage.</p><p><br />© 2005 by Joyce C.

It takes organization<br />and discipline. Some days it is hard to find <br />both. </p><p>This last month I have had many of those days<br />where any interuption has kept me from working<br />at what really makes me happy. Most interuptions<br />have been due to computer problems, but I feel as<br />though I didn't work hard enough to overcome those<br />obstacles. It is past time to get back to work.</p><p>We have had our bought with the stomach flu the <br />last couple of days. Hopefully the only one this<br />season.

Why not? At least Andrew thought it might<br />work. This is an actual love letter written by a boy to his cat.</p><p>But before you read the letter, you must understand this about the<br />cat. She is about as affectionate as a cactus. And besides, she goes<br />to great lengths to avoid Andrew. She would rather sleep the day away<br />in one of her many hiding places scattered throughout the boy’s house<br />than be near him. And on one of those rare occasions when she makes an<br />appearance, he can forget about touching her. If he never has anything<br />to do with her, that is all right by the cat.</p><p>The boy tries his best to be nice. He looks for her, searching the<br />house for an occupied hiding place, and feels abundantly grateful if<br />he should stumble upon his treasure. He is occasionally allowed to<br />stroke her once or twice before she flits off. He even feeds her,<br />hoping to eventually win her confidence and perhaps even a bit of<br />affection. But he is seldom rewarded with anything like attention.</p><p>Now that you know something about the cat, whose name is Mehitabel, by<br />the way, what about the love letter? It was found next to the cat's<br />food dish. This is what it said: "To cat (he couldn't spell<br />Mehitabel!): I love you. Before you love me I will love you more.<br />Love, Andrew. Meow!"</p><p>What a selfless love! "I love you. Before you love me I will love you<br />more." That is the kind of patient love a parent may have for a child.<br />And the kind of love God has for us, God's children.</p><p>There is something beautifully excessive about a love that says,<br />"Before you love me I will love you more." I believe we can use more<br />excessive lovers!<br />__________</p><p>Steve Goodier <a href="mailto:Publisher@LifeSupportSystem.com">Publisher@LifeSupportSystem.com</a> is a professional<br />speaker, consultant and author of numerous books.

Do our thoughts "really" control what we<br />accomplish in life?</p><p>I recall a classic study from many years ago. Picture<br />this:<br />A teacher comes into a primary-level classroom, and<br />tells her students that a new scientific study proved<br />blue-eyed children are a lot smarter than brown- or<br />green-eyed children.</p><p>The results are both immediate and dramatic.</p><p>The blue-eyed children immediately began to outperform<br />their brown and green-eyed classmates in all aspects of<br />their studies.</p><p>Then two months later the teacher calls a special<br />class-room meeting. She tells the students she'd made a<br />serious mistake. She apologized, and said the study had<br />actually proven that brown- and green-eyed children are<br />the most intelligent.</p><p>Again the results are dramatic and immediate.</p><p>The blue-eyed children lost their edge and began to<br />under perform. The brown- and green-eyed children's<br />grades, on the other hand, immediately soared to the<br />"superior" range!</p><p>What does this prove? Simply this:</p><p>If you "believe" you're smart, you act smart.</p><p>If you "believe" you're creative, you act creative.</p><p>If you "believe" you're a success, you act successful.</p><p>If you "believe" you're excellent at something, you act<br />(and therefore become) excellent.</p><p>We each live up (or down) to the image we hold of our<br />self.</p><p>An Important Insight<br />Earl Nightingale, a prominent success philosopher and<br />teacher, spent a good part of his life studying the<br />wisdom contained in the world's philosophical,<br />religious and metaphysical writings.</p><p>Nightingale reported discovering one common belief: "We<br />become what we think about."</p><p>It seems Nightingale's finding agrees with what the<br />classroom-study proved: If you *think* you're bright<br />and destined for success, guess what? You'll be smart,<br />and you'll do smart things that will move you along<br />toward success.<br />But if you *think* you're dumb and destined to fail -<br />you'll do dumb things, and ensure you end up failing.</p><p>How This Works<br />We really are just like those young children in the<br />classroom. Perhaps you remember something like this:<br />You're 7 years old and want to learn to play ball. But<br />you haven't had any experience catching, throwing or<br />hitting.</p><p>So -- you approach some kids playing ball and ask to<br />join. They assign you the position of third baseman.</p><p>But by the time the inning is over, you've clearly<br />shown your lack of skill. Then catastrophe strikes when<br />you come up to bat and strike out! That's the end of<br />your "baseball career."</p><p>You were dubbed a "stupid dummy," and thrown off the<br />team.</p><p>Then suppose you tell your Dad what happened, and he<br />says something like: I'm not surprised Son, you're<br />really NOT cut out for sports.</p><p>The ANTs Have Invaded<br />Do you have some particular areas of life in which you<br />seem to have "natural" limitations? If so -- take a<br />look inside your mind. You'll find some of<br />image-damaging messages from childhood.</p><p>These ANTs (Automatic Negative Thoughts) don't just go<br />away on their own. They sneak around in your<br />subconscious mind twenty-four hours a day sending their<br />messages throughout your mind.</p><p>If you even consider engaging in an activity that has<br />ANTs attached to it, a whole army will start to march<br />along your neural networks. Suddenly you'll decide to<br />"just forget it" because "I'm not any good at that<br />anyway."<br />Sound familiar?</p><p>How to Stamp Out ANTs<br />To claim more of your TRUE potential for personal<br />excellence, you'll have to move those ant hills out of<br />your subconscious mind. The following exercise works<br />especially well for eliminating negative thoughts.</p><p>This exercise is intended to be performed in privacy,<br />while facing a mirror. Look straight into your own eyes<br />and repeat an affirmation. Get as much emotional<br />feeling into it as possible.</p><p>If you want to overcome negative feelings about public<br />speaking, for example, your affirmation might be: "I am<br />an excellent speaker."</p><p>If you want to stomp out negative feelings about<br />failure, you might say: "I am fearless."</p><p>Frequent repetition creates new and stronger neural<br />networks. Don't be alarmed if you begin to look like a<br />different person in the mirror. Done over time, you<br />will begin to get glimpses of a "truer" version of<br />yourself in the mirror.</p><p>Come visit the exciting Self Discovery Community.<br />Discover the most interesting, unusual, stimulating and<br />creative methods of self discovery on the web today!<br />Free sizzling weekly ezine, and the web's first Brain<br />Gym ezone. <a href="http://www.quantum-self.com/">http://www.quantum-self.com/</a> </p><p><br />******************************</p><p>**Recommended Reading**</p><p><br />Lifepluz Ezine...FR*E Ads to 200,000+...<br />Contests...FR*E Stuff & Inspiring Articles<br />to Empower You..To subscribe..Email to..<br /><a href="mailto:lifepluzezine@freeautobot.com">mailto:lifepluzezine@freeautobot.com</a> <br /><a href="http://www.webspawner.com/users/lifepluzezine/">http://www.webspawner.com/users/lifepluzezine/</a> </p><p><br />***</p><p><br />Ideas, information and inspiration for writers--<br />you'll find all three for fr^ee when you subscribe <br />to "WriteSuccess," the biweekly ezine that helps <br />people pursue *successful* writing careers!<br />Visit <a href="http://writesuccess.com">http://writesuccess.com</a> or <br /><a href="mailto:writesuccess-subscribe@yahoogroups.com">mailto:writesuccess-subscribe@yahoogroups.com</a></p><p><br />***</p><p><br />Have You Seen TPM Yet?<br />If you are not currently on the "Today's Power Motivational"® mailing list and would like to join our team, please click here to "Subscribe" <a href="http://formmail.to/USAeZine">http://formmail.to/USAeZine</a> and fill out form.

It is best to use<br />a towel for this. The problem with water is that it<br />can seep in through the scalp of your head and if you<br />leave your head damp, the moisture can seep in result<br />in a headache.</p><p>While going outdoors during the summer, protect your<br />eyes using sunglasses. Sunglasses are the best<br />protection that you can give your eyes when you go<br />out in the sun. The sun beats down ultra violet and<br />other harmful radiations. You eyes need protection<br />from these radiations because they can cause serious<br />damage to your eyes if they are directly exposed to<br />them.</p><p>You need a well lighted room to read. The lighting of<br />your room too is very important. A properly lighted<br />room is what is required if you want to read, do<br />needle work or any other such fine activity. Again<br />too much light is just as bad as a dimly lit room.</p><p>If you feel that your eyes are under strain, take a<br />break. The best relaxation for your eyes is staring<br />at a distant object or just keeping them closed. Your<br />eyes will give you signs when they are under strain.<br />You will find that you are getting tired sooner, your<br />eyes may start to water or you might notice that you<br />have to squint your eyes in order to get a better<br />view.</p><p>Never watch television while lying down. The best<br />position to watch television is sitting and your eyes<br />should preferably be at the level of the television<br />screen.</p><p>Do not wear a hair-do in which your hair is tied up<br />too tightly. Some people especially women tie up<br />their hair in very tight buns or brainds. If your<br />hair is pulled back too tightly it is going to hurt<br />your scalp and the end result is that you will get a<br />headache.</p><p>Try to blink deliberately while working on the<br />computer. When you work on the computer there is an<br />increased tendency to stare unblinkingly at the<br />monitor. This especially true if you are playing an<br />exciting game. In such cases you should make a<br />conscious effort to blink your eyes.</p><p>Whenever possible, use an anti-glare screen to cut<br />out the radiation while working on your computer.<br />Radiation is bad for your eyes and an anti-glare<br />screen is the only and the best solution to this.<br />Another option is to wear glasses that have an anti-<br />glare coating on the lenses.</p><p>Try to get a good night's sleep. A good night's sleep<br />is very important to keep away headaches.</p><p>Find out if you have any allergies. Allergies can<br />cause headaches. Some of us are allergic to specific<br />substances and these substances can trigger off a<br />headache. It may be certain odors or it might be a<br />certain flavors. Each time you get a headache just<br />try and find out what triggered it.</p><p>Schmell Kopfs is the webmaster of<br />Headache Zone, the<br />Internet's hot spot for all things headache prevention.<br />You can read more of his work at <a href="http://www.headachezone.com">http://www.headachezone.com</a> </p><p><br />******************************<br />Ad Programs<br />******************************</p><p>HBAd Ads</p><p>THE MIDAS TOUCH is built-in!

To get going, you first<br />need to take your foot off whatever is putting the<br />brakes on your motivation.</p><p>You know what it feels like to be "stuck." And you also<br />know that once your motivation weakens, it can be tough<br />to get re-motivated. This is often the "missing link"<br />in goal attainment.</p><p>But getting motivated and staying motivated is really<br />only a question of developing a winning strategy. Once<br />you know how, it becomes second nature!</p><p>So what can you do when you just can't seem to get<br />yourself in action?</p><p>** A Strategy That Works<br />Here's a strategy I use to deal with heavy work<br />overloads that try to "put the brakes" on my<br />motivation:</p><p>1. First, I identify one thing I can do right now. It<br />really doesn't matter how small that one thing is. I<br />just start somewhere -- usually with shortening my "to<br />do" list to a "short list" of five things I *know* I<br />can accomplish today!</p><p>Because let's face it: If we start out with a to-do<br />list of tough tasks as long as our arm, we're setting<br />ourselves up for failure.</p><p>2. Next I select one thing on my "short list" that I<br />feel capable of starting and completing right now.<br />Let me give you an example. Every so often I find I<br />have collected such a huge pile of papers, books and<br />notes on my desk that the clutter is driving me to<br />distraction. I can't find anything.</p><p>The first thing item on my "short list" is to organize<br />my desk.</p><p>I put away any books I'm not actively reading or using.<br />Then I sort those piles of paperwork into three piles:<br />Discard, file, and take action. All the paperwork then<br />goes into the trash can, a "to be filed" folder, or a<br />"hot pile."</p><p>I have now started and completed one very important<br />task!</p><p>2. Then I tackle item #2 on my short list. This item is<br />usually to organize my "hot pile." My technique is to<br />divide these items into separate folders labeled:</p><p>• Critical<br />• High Priority<br />• ASAP</p><p>As I do this, I always find some items have such low<br />priority they get tossed, or are added to my "to be<br />filed" folder.</p><p>This is easy to do, and I always end up with a great<br />sense of accomplishment.</p><p>** Try This Simple Approach<br />If you are feeling overwhelmed with a big project -<br />this strategy works equally well -- and often<br />effectively dissolves stress and frustration. Try these<br />steps:</p><p>(1) Pick a task you want completed, but can't seem to<br />get started on because it seems overwhelming.</p><p>(2) Ask yourself: "What is the one little thing I CAN<br />do right now? It does not matter how small it seems -<br />because that one thing WILL get you started.</p><p>(3) Do it!</p><p>(4) Repeat step 2. Again ask yourself: "What is next<br />single thing I CAN do right now?"</p><p>(5) Do it, now!</p><p>Don't put yourself under pressure. Even a tiny step<br />forward is still a step forward. And each one will move<br />you away from that uncomfortable feeling of overwhelm<br />and motivational paralysis.</p><p>** Take It To The Next Level<br />This same approach can be applied to huge goals. To<br />keep yourself motivated on target, break your goal down<br />into smaller and smaller sub-goals, until you reach a<br />"task level" list of things that can be completed in<br />one day.</p><p>There is a very powerful way to dramatically improve<br />yourgoal achievement results.</p><p>Come visit the exciting Self Discovery Community.<br />Discover the most interesting, unusual, stimulating and<br />creative methods of self discovery on the web today!<br />Free sizzling weekly ezine, and the web's first Brain<br />Gym ezone. <a href="http://www.quantum-self.com/">http://www.quantum-self.com/</a><br /> </p><p>******************************</p><p>**New Subscriber Ads**</p><p> <br />*Welcome to Sunny Days Elaine*</p><p>Ordinary people are making EXTRAORDINARY money <br />WORKING FROM HOME on the Internet!<br />Elaine Currie<br />Would you like to make money online, <br />but don't know where to start?... <br />You're not alone and here's a solution just for you:<br /><a href="http://www.pluginprofitsite.com/main-4295">www.pluginprofitsite.com/main-4295</a></p><p><br />*Welcome to Sunny Days Georgia*</p><p>In-home business program that offers <br />step-by-step guide to learn how to start <br />your own Internet business. <br />Read testimonials/get info pack <a href="http://www.dreamin-of-success.com/">http://www.dreamin-of-success.com/</a> <br />Providing financial future for you and your family</p><p><br />******************************</p><p> <br />A TSUNAMI BLESSING</p><p>In light of this week's tsunami devastation, the following blessing is<br />offered as a prayer for those of various faiths.

The year to really, truly be yourself and come <br />into your own and be the best you can be! Take those steps, those <br />leaps, those chances to do the things you've always wanted to do <br />and go to places you've never been before.</p><p>At this time in our history so many changes are occurring at such <br />a fast speed, that sometimes we just have to hold on and go for <br />the ride. Try not to see the changes as "bad or good" but as, <br />just change. Some days I have to just sit, sip on some tea and <br />watch things unfold right in front of me. It's amazing and <br />wonderful.</p><p>Some people make resolutions... things they want to resolve in <br />their lives and do better or renew, hence, New Year. What have <br />you been dreaming of? What do you want to do? Does it begin <br />within? All things "must" begin within. The seed is planted <br />within us and we feed and water it, until it blooms into what we <br />desire. When things don't always come about exactly the way we <br />want or when, we often must take time to understand that perhaps <br />there is something better or that it may come about from a <br />different angle that we may not have thought of. We all have <br />within us what it takes to manifest and create, so why not do it <br />this year and not wait any longer? Begin within and make the <br />conscious choice to dance to your own music and be who you desire <br />to be and live your life the way you long to live. You've been <br />too hard on yourself and this is the time to get serious or maybe <br />not be so serious, to have fun, be yourself, love yourself and <br />treat yourself the way you may treat others. Perhaps you give so <br />much of yourself to others, that you forget about yourself? Did <br />you ever think of that? No, I mean, did you ever really take the <br />time to sense that you really do give a lot, but you also need to <br />be aware of what you give out? Is your music a lovely melody or <br />is it something a little bit off tune?<br />Now is the time to begin to get all tuned up and ready to dance! <br />Are you ready? I know I am... I am not going to wait any longer, <br />the time is here to dance like "Everybody's watching" but to <br />still, dance to my own music and show the world and myself, who I <br />really am and what I love about me!</p><p>I do not have to please others, but that doesn't mean I have to <br />forget my manners and to love everyone as I love myself. Wow, if <br />some folks loved others the way they love themselves, we would <br />have a lot of unhappy people running around. Take the time to get <br />to know the real you and if you don't like something... change <br />it. How you say? Not that easy you say? No, its not, but no one <br />else can do it for you... its your life, your choices, your <br />path... you can dance to your own music and "wow" along the way <br />you may just ooze so much wonderful, beautiful energy and music <br />that others may just want to join in and dance too! How wonderful <br />to have a world of happier people dancing to their own rhythm and <br />shining brightly for the world to see. It's contagious and <br />enlightening!!</p><p>Dance, sing, love, create, live... to your own music!! It's quite <br />all right to just be who you are and love it and love others. I <br />know I will make this a great New Year... I wish the same for you <br />too. Make this a magical year filled with light, love, laughter, <br />magic... and your own music!!</p><p>~Wishing you a wonderful New Year filled with love and peace~</p><p /><p>Copyright: Mystickblue (c) 2000-2005 ~Dec. 28, 2004~All rights <br />reserved.</p><p>About the Author</p><p>Fran Hafey is a Spiritual Counselor, Healer, Writer, Activist and <br />Teacher.

"If I really want to put them to sleep, I start off with, 'Now,<br />when I was your age...'" It's nice to understand people so well that<br />we know just what to say! Here is a mother who could speak her<br />children's language.</p><p>The story is told of the most famous elephant in the world -- a huge,<br />beautiful and gentle beast named Bozo. Children extended open palms<br />filled with peanuts for the Indian elephant, who gently plucked them<br />from little hands and seemed to smile as he ate his treats.</p><p>But one day, for some inexplicable reason, Bozo changed. He almost<br />stampeded the man who cleaned his cage. He charged children at the<br />circus and became incorrigible. His owner knew he would have to<br />destroy the once-gentle giant.</p><p>In order to raise money for a new elephant, the circus owner held a<br />cruel exhibition. He sold tickets to witness Bozo's execution and, on<br />the appointed day, his arena was packed. Three men with high-powered<br />rifles rose to take aim at the great beast's head.</p><p>Just before the signal was given to shoot, a little, stubby man in a<br />brown hat stepped out of the crowd and said to the elephant's owner,<br />"Sir, this is not necessary. Bozo is not a bad elephant."</p><p>"But he is," the man argued. "We must kill him before he kills<br />someone."</p><p>"Sir, give me two minutes alone in his cage," the visitor pleaded,<br />"and I'll prove to you that you are wrong. He is not a bad elephant."</p><p>After a few more moments of discussion (and a written statement<br />absolving the circus of liability if the man should be injured), the<br />keeper finally agreed to allow the man inside Bozo's cage. The<br />man removed his brown derby and entered the cage of the bellowing and<br />trumpeting beast.</p><p>Before the elephant could charge, the man began to speak to him. Bozo<br />seemed to immediately quiet down upon hearing the man's words. Nearby<br />spectators could also hear the man, but they could not understand him,<br />for he spoke a foreign language. Soon the great animal began to<br />tremble, whine and throw his head about. Then the stranger walked up<br />to Bozo and stroked his trunk. The great elephant tenderly wrapped his<br />trunk around the man, lifted him up and carried him around his cage<br />before carefully depositing him back at the door. Everyone applauded.</p><p>As the cage door closed behind him, the man said to Bozo's keeper,<br />"You see, he is a good elephant. His problem is that he is an Indian<br />elephant and understands one language." He explained that Bozo was<br />frustrated and confused. He needed someone who could speak his<br />language. "I suggest, sir, that you find someone in London to come in<br />occasionally and talk to the elephant. If you do, you'll have no<br />problems."</p><p>The man picked up his brown derby and walked away. It was at that time<br />that the circus owner looked carefully at the signature on the paper<br />he held in his hand -- the note absolving the circus of responsibility<br />in the case he was injured inside the elephant's cage. The statement<br />was signed by Rudyard Kipling.</p><p>People also become frustrated and angry when they are not understood.<br />But great relationships are formed by parents who learn to speak their<br />children's language; lovers who speak each other's language;<br />professionals who speak the language of their staff and clients. When<br />people understand that YOU understand, that you empathize with their<br />heartaches and understand their problems, then you are speaking their<br />language! It is the beginning of true communication.</p><p>__________</p><p>Steve Goodier <a href="mailto:Publisher@LifeSupportSystem.com">Publisher@LifeSupportSystem.com</a> is a professional<br />speaker, consultant and author of numerous books.

My early morning<br />ritual includes a time of literal waking up. I don't<br />drink coffee before stepping outside. I usually<br />don't talk to another human before walking. I just<br />get up, slide on my shoes and coat, grab the<br />dogs and go.</p><p>It wasn't until I was a half a block from the bluffs <br />that I noticed it might create a challenge for me <br />going along my favored route.</p><p>I couldn't see across the street. </p><p>I wondered if I could see in order to cross the<br />street and arrive at my destination either.</p><p>"This fog won't deter me!" I boldly stated<br />internally. "I am not afraid." I kept moving<br />forward, undaunted. I would not veer from <br />my predetermined, much loved route along <br />the Panorama bluffs.</p><p>I smiled to myself, thinking this was quite the <br />metaphor, deftly delivered once again by a <br />divine source. Hank and Buttercup padded <br />along beside me in their usual trusting <br />manner. Because they couldn't see the<br />other side of the road either, they weren't <br />breathless with excitement yet.</p><p>I stood at the point where I usually cross <br />and felt as if I was surrounded by a cocoon <br />of a cold, moist barrier. It wasn't swirling <br />like fog sometimes does, it was stagnant.</p><p>It was like a statue of fog - concrete. It stood,<br />inpenetrable and unyielding.</p><p>I stepped into the street with my head turned<br />to the left to see any oncoming traffic.</p><p>There was a car headed towards <br />me, way too close for comfort.</p><p>"There will need to be a lot of heat, a lot of <br />light to burn this fog away." I thought.</p><p>I stepped back and looked down at my <br />dear canine friends. If I couldn't see the car, <br />the car couldn't see me. What would happen<br />if we got to the middle of the road and a car <br />came along and didn't know there was a safe<br />zone in the middle?</p><p>I turned and walked alongside the bluffs on<br />the opposite side.</p><p>There is boldness, yes - and there is <br />foolhardiness.</p><p>We could get our morning exercise without<br />risking our lives to go our "favored" way. This <br />would be perfect.</p><p>My feet walked along a lush blanket of green<br />grass, the edge of the lawns of the large estates <br />along Panorama Drive. My feet were surrounded <br />by softness rather than the usual dry, crackled and<br />parched path.</p><p>Hank and Buttercup happily sniffed new territory,<br />gleefully discovering new bushes and new <br />rocks and all sorts of doggy-sensory delights.</p><p>The dogs were content, I was content.</p><p>The fog hadn't turned me away from my path <br />as I thought earlier it had simply shown me an<br />alternative way.</p><p>A-ha - absolutely lovely.</p><p>======<br />Julie Jordan Scott is a Writer, Speaker, Success Coach, Actor,<br />Workshop Facilitator and Mother Extraordinaire who works with<br />creative, active oriented people to lead remarkable lives <br />through coaching, teleclasses and ecourses.

The pastor of the church was looking <br />over the cradle when he noticed that the baby Jesus <br />was missing from among the figures. Immediately he <br />turned and went outside and saw a little boy with a <br />red wagon, and in the wagon was the figure of the <br />little infant, Jesus. So he walked up to the boy <br />and said, "Well, where did you get Him, my fine friend?" <br />The little boy replied, "I got him from the <br />church." "And why did you take him?" The boy <br />said, "Well, about a week before Christmas I prayed <br />to the little Lord Jesus and I told him if he would <br />bring me a red wagon for Christmas I would give <br />him a ride around the block in it." </p><p><br />******************************</p><p>**Ad Co-ops**</p><p><br />Worried About The High Cost Of Promoting Your Products?</p><p>Think your E- business can't afford the high costs of <br />advertising?

It was first published in the old <br />"New York Sun", a NYC Newspaper at the turn of the century. <br />I take extreme pride in re-printing it here for your <br />pleasure and mine. Here it is in its entirety.<br /> </p><p>Yes Virginia, There is a Santa Claus!<br /> <br /> Dear Editor,<br /> <br />I am only 8 years old and some of my friends say that there <br />is no Santa Claus. My daddy says, "If you read it in the <br />newspaper, then it must be true. Please tell me the truth, <br />"Is There A Santa Claus?"</p><p>Virginia O'Hanlon<br />115 W. 95 th St.<br />NYC, NY</p><p>Dear, Dear Virginia,<br /> <br />Your little friends are wrong. They have been corrupted by a <br />skeptical age. They do not believe except what they see. <br />They think that nothing can exist that is not comprehensible <br />by their young minds. All minds Virginia, whether they be <br />adults or children are young and little. In this great <br />universe of ours, man is a mere insect, an ant in his intellect, <br />compared to the boundless world around him, as measured by <br />the intelligence capable of grasping the whole truth and knowledge.<br /> <br />Yes, (Insert your child's name), There Is A Santa Claus!</p><p>He Exists as certainly as Love and Generosity and Devotion Exist, <br />and you know that they abound and give to your life it's highest <br />beauty and joy. How sad and dreary the world would be if there <br />were no Santa Claus! It would be as sad and dreary as if there <br />were no (Your Child's Name).<br /> <br />There would be no childlike faith then, no poetry, no romance <br />to help tolerate our existence. We would have no joy except <br />what we could hear and see. The eternal light from which a <br />child sees the world would be snuffed out, extinguished. <br />Not believe in Santa Claus? You might as well not believe <br />in Fairies. You might have your daddy watch all the chimneys <br />on Christmas Eve to catch Santa Claus, but even if Santa Claus <br />wasn't seen coming down the chimney, what would that prove? <br />Nobody ever sees Santa Claus at work! The most real things <br />in the World are those things that neither Adults nor Children <br />are able to see. Did you ever see Fairies dancing on the lawn, <br />or how about God on his Throne? Of course not, but does that <br />mean that they aren't there? Think about all the wonders that <br />you can't see and imagine what it would be like if they were no <br />longer believed in.<br /> <br />You tear apart a baby's rattle to see what makes the noise, <br />but thee is a veil covering the unseen world which not even <br />the strongest man who ever lived, could tear apart. Only faith, <br />belief, poetry, love, and romance can push aside that curtain to <br />catch a glimpse of the supernatural beauty and glory beyond. <br />Is it real? Of course it is! Ah,</p><p>(Your Child's Name), in all this world, there is nothing else that <br />is as real!<br /> <br />No Santa Claus? Bah! Humbug! Thank God, He Lives! And he lives <br />Now and Forever! A thousand years from now,</p><p>(Your Child's Name), Nay, ten thousand years from now, Santa Claus <br />will continue to make glad the heart of childhood. As long as there <br />are children, (Your Child's Name), Santa Claus will live. He lives <br />in the hearts of Children and good people everywhere. <br />Yes (Your Child's Name) I for one, say Thank God that there is a <br />Santa Claus and a (Your Child's Name).</p><p>Francis P.

He tells about an old man who stood on a<br />Virginia riverbank many years ago. He was waiting to cross the river<br />and, since it was bitterly cold and there were no bridges, he would<br />have to "catch a ride" to the other side. After a lengthy wait he<br />spotted a group of horsemen approaching. He let the first one pass,<br />then the second, third, fourth and fifth. One rider remained. As he<br />drew abreast, the old man looked him in the eye and said, "Sir, would<br />you give me a ride across the river?"</p><p>The rider immediately replied, "Certainly." Once across the river, the<br />old man slid to the ground. "Sir," the rider said before leaving. "I<br />could not help but notice that you permitted all the other men to pass<br />without asking for a ride. Then, when I drew abreast, you immediately<br />asked me to carry you across. I am curious as to why you didn't ask<br />them and you did ask me."</p><p>The old man quietly responded, "I looked into their eyes and could see<br />no love and knew in my own heart it would be useless to ask for a<br />ride. But when I looked into your eyes, I saw compassion, love and the<br />willingness to help. I knew you would be glad to give me a ride across<br />the river."</p><p>The rider was touched. "I'm grateful for what you are saying," he<br />said. "I appreciate it very much." With that, Thomas Jefferson turned<br />and rode off to the White House.</p><p>Ziglar reminds us that our eyes are the windows of our souls. Then he<br />asks a pointed question: "If you had been the last rider, would the<br />old man have asked you for a ride?"</p><p>A good question! For it is said that others will know us by our love.<br />Some will see it in the things we do and some in the things we say.<br />And a few perceptive souls, like the old man, may catch a glimmer of a<br />loving and generous spirit in the expression of kind eyes.</p><p>However it shows, may you be known by your love.</p><p>__________</p><p>Steve Goodier <a href="mailto:Publisher@LifeSupportSystem.com">Publisher@LifeSupportSystem.com</a> is a professional<br />speaker, consultant and author of numerous books.

She poured all <br />the change out on the floor and counted it carefully. <br />Three times, even. The total had to be exactly perfect. <br />No chance here for mistakes. Carefully placing the coins <br />back in the jar and twisting on the cap, she slipped <br />out the back door and made her way blocks to Rexall's <br />Drug Store with the big red Indian Chief sign above <br />the door. She waited patiently for the pharmacist to <br />give her some attention but he was too busy at this <br />moment. Tess twisted her feet to make a scuffing noise. <br />Nothing. She cleared her throat with the most disgusting <br />sound she could muster. No good. Finally she took a quarter <br />from her jar and banged it on the glass counter. That did it! <br />"And what do you want?" the pharmacist asked in an annoyed <br />tone of voice. </p><p><br />"I'm talking to my brother from Chicago whom I haven't <br />seen in ages," he said without waiting for a reply to <br />his question. "Well, I want to talk to you about my<br /> brother," Tess answered back in the same annoyed tone. <br />"He's really, really sick... and I want to buy a miracle." <br />"I beg your pardon?" said the pharmacist. "His name is <br />Andrew and he has something bad growing inside his head <br />and my Daddy says only a miracle can save him now. So <br />how much does a miracle cost?" "We don't sell miracles <br />here, little girl. I'm sorry, but I can't help you," the <br />pharmacist said, softening a little.</p><p><br />"Listen, I have the money to pay for it. If it isn't <br />enough, I will get the rest. Just tell me how much it <br />costs." The pharmacist's brother was a well dressed man. <br />He stooped down and asked the little girl, "What kind of <br />a miracle does your brother need?" "I don't know," Tess <br />replied with her eyes welling up. "I just know he's really <br />sick and Mommy says he needs an operation. But my Daddy <br />can't pay for it, so I want to use my money." "How much <br />do you have?" asked the man from Chicago. "One dollar <br />and eleven cents," Tess answered barely audibly. "And <br />it's all the money I have, but I can get some more if <br />I need to. </p><p><br />"Well, what a coincidence," smiled the man. "A dollar <br />and eleven cents-the exact price of a miracle for little <br />brothers." He took her money in one hand and with the other <br />hand he grasped her mitten and said "Take me to where you <br />live. I want to see your brother and meet your parents. <br />Let's see if I have the kind of miracle you need." That <br />well dressed man was Dr.Carlton Armstrong, a surgeon <br />specializing in neuro-surgery. The operation was completed <br />without charge and it wasn't long until Andrew was home <br />again and doing well. Mom and Dad were happily talking <br />about the chain of events that had led them to this place. </p><p><br />"That surgery," her Mom whispered. "was a real miracle. <br />I wonder how much it would have cost?" </p><p><br />Tess smiled. She knew exactly how much a miracle cost... <br />one dollar and eleven cents ...... plus the faith of little <br />child. A miracle is not the suspension of natural law, but <br />the operation of a higher law......

I've fed, cleaned and cuddled <br />my three children on demand, visited the doctor's office more <br />than my doctor, sold sixty-two cases of candy bars to raise <br />money to plant a shade tree on the school playground and <br />figured out how to attach nine patches onto my daughter's <br />girl scout sash with staples and a glue gun.</p><p>I was hoping you could spread my list out over several <br />Christmases, since I had to write this letter with my <br />daughter's red crayon, on the back of a receipt in the <br />laundry room between cycles, and who knows when I'll <br />find anymore free time in the next 18 years.</p><p><br />Here are my Christmas wishes:</p><p>I'd like a pair of legs that don't ache after a day of <br />chasing kids (in any color, except purple, which I <br />already have) and arms that don't flap in the breeze but <br />are strong enough to carry a screaming toddler out of the <br />candy aisle in the grocery store. I'd also like a waist, <br />since I lost mine somewhere in the seventh month of my <br />last pregnancy. If you're hauling big ticket items this <br />year I'd like a car with fingerprint resistant windows <br />and a radio that only plays adult music; a television <br />that doesn't broadcast any programs containing talking <br />animals; and a refrigerator with a secret compartment <br />behind the crisper where I can hide to talk on the phone.</p><p>On the practical side, I could use a talking daughter <br />doll that says, "Yes, Mommy" to boost my parental confidence, <br />along with one potty-trained toddler, two kids who don't <br />fight and three pairs of jeans that will zip all the way up <br />without the use of power tools. I could also use a recording <br />of Tibetan monks chanting "Don't eat in the living room" and <br />"Take your hands off your brother," because my voice seems <br />to be just out of my children's hearing range and can only <br />be heard by the dog. And please don't forget the Playdoh <br />Travel Pack, the hottest stocking stuffer this year for <br />mothers of preschoolers. It comes in three fluorescent <br />colors and is guaranteed to crumble on any carpet making <br />the in-laws' house seem just like mine. If it's too late to <br />find any of these products, I'd settle for enough time to <br />brush my teeth and comb my hair in the same morning, or <br />the luxury of eating food warmer than room temperature <br />without it being served in a Styrofoam container. </p><p>If you don't mind, I could also use a few Christmas miracles <br />to brighten the holiday season. Would it be too much trouble <br />to declare ketchup a vegetable? It will clear my conscience <br />immensely.</p><p>It would be helpful if you could coerce my children to help <br />around the house without demanding payment as if they were <br />the bosses of an organized crime family; or if my toddler <br />didn't look so cute sneaking downstairs to eat contraband <br />ice cream in his pajamas at midnight.</p><p>Well, Santa, the buzzer on the dryer is ringing and my son <br />saw my feet under the laundry room door. I think he wants <br />his crayon back. Have a safe trip and remember to leave your <br />wet boots by the chimney and come in and dry off by the fire <br />so you don't catch cold. Help yourself to cookies on the <br />table but don't eat too many or leave crumbs on the carpet.</p><p>Yours Always,<br />Mom</p><p><br />P.S. One more thing...you can cancel all my requests if you <br />can keep my children young enough to believe in Santa. </p><p><br />Author Unknown</p><p>******************************</p><p>**New Subscriber Ads**</p><p>*Welcome to Sunny Days Hector*</p><p>$25 Start-Up and Ea rn Hundreds Per Day<br />Starting your very first day!

But many<br />people try. And the reason is often simply because they don't<br />know how to be happy! They are so intent on the three Ps --<br />power, prosperity and prestige -- that they miss out on joy.</p><p>Try to imagine this picture. It is a photograph taken by Henri<br />Cartier-Bresson, who pioneered modern photography as an art form<br />during the early decades of the 20th Century. He became known for<br />his photographs of apparent contradictions: pictures that left<br />mysteries unexplained.</p><p>One of his famous photographs was shot in a poor section of Spain<br />in the 1930s. The picture depicts a run-down alley surrounded by<br />decaying walls, strewn with rubble randomly stacked in thick<br />piles lying on the street, and riddled with bullet holes dotting<br />gray walls. The setting alone evokes feelings of sadness and<br />despair.</p><p>But then...the contradiction. Within the grim alley children are<br />playing. They wear dirty and tattered clothes, as one might<br />expect in such a setting, but like playing children everywhere,<br />they laugh with carefree joy. In the foreground, a tiny boy on<br />crutches hobbles away from two other boys, his face lit up with a<br />broad grin. One boy is laughing so hard he has to hold his side.<br />Others lean on the cracked walls, beaming with delight.</p><p>It is easy to spot the contrast -- and the point. Joy amidst the<br />rubble of life. Laughter amongst its ruins.</p><p>We cannot avoid pain, however hard we try. But we can avoid joy.<br />We cannot escape hardship and trouble, but we can miss out on<br />much of life's peace and laughter.</p><p>If you feel as if you could use more joy, try this:</p><p> Spend time daily doing something you enjoy.<br /> Do those things that bring inner peace.<br /> Learn to laugh heartily and frequently.<br /> Cultivate within yourself an attitude of hope.<br /> Fill each day with as much love as it can possibly hold.</p><p>You'll still have plenty of problems, but through it all, you'll<br />find all you joy you will ever need.</p><p>__________</p><p>Steve Goodier <a href="mailto:Publisher@LifeSupportSystem.com">Publisher@LifeSupportSystem.com</a> is a professional<br />speaker, consultant and author of numerous books.

"But I don't want the eggs."</p><p>"Then I'll have to charge you two dollars and forty-nine cents because you're ordering a la carte," the waitress warned her.</p><p>"You mean I'd have to pay for not taking the eggs?" My wife asked incredulously. "I'll take the special."</p><p>"How do you want your eggs?"</p><p>"Raw and in the shell," my wife replied. She took the two eggs home. </p><p><br />******************************</p><p>The Ebb and Flow of Life<br />Charlie Badenhop<br /> </p><p>During my first year in Japan I took a hitchhiking trip and went<br />to numerous fishing villages on the west coast of Japan.</p><p>In one village I had the privilege of meeting a very special man.<br />He was in his sixties and walked with a noticeable limp. He told<br />me that as a youth he was very involved in karate, but that at<br />the age of twenty five he was injured while working on his<br />father's fishing boat, and he had been limping ever since.</p><p>We sat out on a small wooden dock one night as he told me about<br />his life. He said once he realized he would no longer be able to<br />actively take part in karate, he made a firm commitment to use<br />his life as a fisherman to further his martial arts studies. He<br />read various martial arts books and then applied what he read to<br />his work life.</p><p>"One of the most important things I have learned" he said, "Is to<br />create a rhythm with your presence, movements, and breathing,<br />that matches the rhythm of nature." "This is a phrase numerous<br />martial arts masters wrote about in the books I have read."</p><p>As we sat by the water, he invited me to<br />"Notice the ebb and flow of the ocean.... and the sounds of the<br />tide lapping against the pilings of the pier."<br />"You can sense the movement and sounds of the ocean... .<br />As you also notice your movements and breathing... .<br />And realize how you go IN... and OUT... of rhythm with this<br />flow."</p><p>I began to do as he suggested, and I quickly felt I was being<br />drawn into a parallel world, that I was somehow usually ignoring,<br />or simply not noticing.</p><p>"Feel the life force of the ocean" he said, "and breathe with the<br />ocean."<br />"Feel the life force of the ocean, and without doing anything,<br />allow yourself to move with the ocean..."<br />"Breathe, move, and feel your heartbeat..."<br />"Invite your heartbeat to synchronize with the heartbeat of the<br />ocean."</p><p>"Now you are becoming one with the water, and the fluid inside<br />your body begins to become a tiny powerful ocean that ebbs and<br />flows throughout your system."</p><p>"Now, like the ocean you can begin to feel the power of flowing<br />without resisting. Flowing without fighting against."</p><p>"The water surrounds and moves past all obstacles. There is no<br />forcing, and no need for strength.<br />"Only flow... . The power is IN the flow, and each drop of water<br />is pliant and soft."<br />"No one drop of water is powerful on its own."</p><p>We sat there together for a while. The man, myself, and the<br />ocean.<br />I felt the power and presence of the ocean, myself, and the<br />fisherman.<br />Not separate, but together.<br />And I knew very clearly that all this power was really One.</p><p>The presence that resides in you..<br />The one tiny drop of water that you are.</p><p>* * *<br />The ebb and flow of your life mirrors the ebb and flow of all<br />life.<br />When you calm yourself, slow down, and become one with your<br />surroundings, you realize that nature offers you a parallel<br />understanding of life. The tiny drop of water known as "me" is an<br />integral part of the ocean of life, and your power manifests most<br />gracefully when you join your individual spirit with the spirit<br />of all creation.</p><p>Breathe deeply, calm yourself, and begin to notice and appreciate<br />the ebb and flow of the world around you...<br />You will discover the power of the universe is the power that<br />feeds your life.</p><p><br />................................................................<br />About the author:<br />Charlie Badenhop is the originator of Seishindo, an Aikido<br />instructor, NLP trainer, and Ericksonian Hypnotherapist.<br />Benefit from a new self-help Practice every two weeks, by<br />subscribing to his complimentary newsletter "Pure heart,<br />simple mind" at <a href="http://www.seishindo.org/anger/index.html">http://www.seishindo.org/anger/index.html</a> .<br /> </p><p>******************************</p><p>**New Subscriber Ads**</p><p> <br />*Welcome to Sunny Days Iradin*</p><p>This Business Could Make You Rich!<br />This one is above of anything else<br />you may have been associated with.<br /> Seeing Is Believing!

The air of the room <br />seemed to become more dense. The classroom<br />perched in the south east corner of the stone <br />school building. The school sat like a lighthouse<br />atop the hill as it kept watch over the entire<br />neighborhood.</p><p>I am sure on that day a different sort of light<br />shone out the non-descript, institutional window<br />raining golden dust upon the intersection<br />of Bloomfield and Ridgewood Avenues.</p><p>In the back of the room my fingers dashed <br />across a keyboard, pounding away at the <br />manual typewriter as it spoke clankety clankety <br />clankety ding! Zoom! I swiped the carriage with<br />all the zest of the former girl's arm wrestling <br />champion from Linden Avenue School.</p><p>Did the ceiling evaporate and a ray of light <br />suddenly connect my hands to heaven?</p><p>Something had shifted. It had broken through<br />the physical plane and into my being. I had the<br />skill to type without looking at the keyboard<br />thanks to the Tap Tapnick poster on the wall <br />and hours and hours of diligent practice <br />so I was able to scribe the words without<br />looking at my hands. </p><p>I could close my eyes or stare straight ahead<br />or above the chalk board and continue typing.</p><p>I knew the letters were there.</p><p>There was never any question.</p><p>There were other children in the room tapping <br />away at their machines. I know there was other<br />activity. I remember Mr. Seymour from Team <br />5 walking into the room to visit with Mrs. Behrman,<br />the typing teacher. </p><p>Right in the midst of the bustle and the buzz of<br />thirty or so typewriters all clanking and dinging <br />and swiping, I was not there at all.</p><p>All I had to do was connect my mind, soul and <br />heart to my fingers and words burst forth. I was<br />able to translate all the emotion that was <br />rumbling through my early adolescent self<br />onto the page so that the world of the<br />Glen Ridge Middle School and beyond <br />would be able to understand what it felt like <br />to feel so incredibly alive, so <br />incredibly buoyant. </p><p>From reading my words I knew they would be<br />able to understand what it meant to tap into <br />the power of the Divine while writing.</p><p>The Topic was simply "Music". The composer<br />was for the first time a life force greater than<br />my own.</p><p>I had tapped into the Zone, the Flow, the Space<br />in the Center where everything is conceived, <br />birthed and buried.</p><p>I knew the letters were there.</p><p>Typing became a favored hobby. I would type<br />for anyone who asked: I typed for my father's <br />business. I typed reports for my siblings. I <br />typed everything and anything. Sitting in my<br />father's office into the night I typed and I typed <br />and I typed.</p><p>My father bought me a manual typewriter that <br />summer.</p><p>I overheard him say to my mother "Julie hits the<br />keys too hard."</p><p>I thought he was criticizing me. </p><p>In truth, he was simply observing me: the <br />passion in my heart, the gift welling up from <br />my soul and the inescapable call which<br />beckoned me to type, to compose, to write,<br />to be filled to overflowing.</p><p>I knew the letters were there.</p><p>He brought home a monstrous looking and <br />stunningly beautiful Royal typewriter which<br />was sitting proudly yet unused on<br />the shelf in my daughter's closet.</p><p>Reverently I received it, a secondhand machine<br />he found in the classified section of the newspaper. <br />I remember the first time its heaviness was <br />placed in my arms, a harbinger of the weightiness<br />of each of my babies as they would be placed<br />into my arms when they were born.</p><p>My hands slowly felt the keys, inspected the <br />ribbon, moved the carriage.</p><p>I knew the letters were there.</p><p>Today it called to me from its nest upon <br />my daughter's closet shelf.</p><p>I walked into her room, hands on my hips<br />as my eyes reached onto the shelf in wonder<br />as I remembered.</p><p>It was covered by a haggard, dusty, wrinkly <br />plastic cover proudly bearing the words <br />"Miller and Walsh Typewriter Co."</p><p>I lifted my treasure and its heaviness once again<br />surprised me. I gasped and gasped again, <br />surprised at the release of breath.</p><p>I took it into my office and the plastic cover<br />begged me to remove it so that I could see <br />my beloved friend. I happily obliged.</p><p>The surprisingly petite green keys smiled <br />up at me with expectation.</p><p>My eyes surveyed the machine and my hands <br />lightly got reacquainted with the texture of<br />the machine. Magic Margins. The settings still<br />almost identical to the settings I used in Mrs. <br />Behrman's classroom. </p><p>Tab Clear/Tab Set. All those features that I <br />still have challenges with using word processing<br />programs are all clearly and proudly displayed <br />on this miraculous device. The ribbon was askew,<br />dried and crackly like the inside of a peanut <br />whose inside has been exposed to air for a <br />long, long time.</p><p>The keys and the body were marvelously dust free.</p><p>I carried the machine to its new place: one of <br />honor. It is now displayed like the work of art it is<br />in an important corner of my living room. Perched<br />in the north east corner of the my living room, <br />peering out the window, keeping watch over the <br />entire neighborhood.</p><p>It is like a lighthouse, gold dust scattering out<br />over the intersection of Alta Vista and La <br />Cresta Drive.</p><p>I know the letters are there.</p><p><br />======<br />Writer and Success Coach Julie Jordan Scott <br />announces a new way for you to inspire, <br />encourage, nourish, applaud, energize and <br />activate your writing muse.... 42 Days of <br />Writing Passionately -The Fr*e*e <br />International Writing Workshop: Register now<br /><a href="http://www.5passions.com/42daysofwritingpassionately.html">http://www.5passions.com/42daysofwritingpassionately.html</a><br /> </p><p><br />******************************</p><p>Today's Recipe</p><p>Potato Pancakes</p><p>Simple and versatile, potato pancakes appeal to everyone <br />from kids to sophisticated diners. There are many recipes <br />for them, and I find myself changing them according to the <br />meal and to my mood. During the holidays, entertaining often <br />means serving special meals such as rack of lamb, expensive <br />cuts of beef and favorite recipes for fish and poultry. A <br />crispy potato pancake helps elevate any of these, and with <br />the addition of appropriate herbs it will complement any <br />main course. Timing the cooking is easy because the pan can <br />be pulled off the heat if finishing too soon and returned to <br />heat up as the main course finishes. Cooking it ahead and <br />reheating it at serving time works as well. </p><p>Adding finely chopped onions, scallions, or shallots works <br />with any meal, but specific herbs can be added to match what <br />is being served. I find chopped rosemary works with any lamb <br />dish as well as with grilled swordfish. Sage goes well with <br />pork or poultry, as would thyme, and a few tablespoons of <br />grated parmesan adds depth to the flavor. Omit adding the <br />onions, herbs and cheese if you wish. It is hard to go <br />wrong, so experiment and find your own preferences. </p><p>Choose baking potatoes, russet or any starchy variety, <br />locally grown of course. Some recipes call for mixing an egg <br />which helps hold the pancake together, but we usually omit <br />it, finding the potato starch is sufficient if excess water <br />is removed. If the pancake comes apart when it is turned, it <br />is easily reformed in the pan by pressing with a spatula. <br />Although I've made them in a stainless steel frying pan, <br />using a non- stick pan makes it easier to turn or remove the <br />pancake. </p><p>Four servings as a side dish:</p><p>4 medium potatoes, peeled<br />1 egg, beaten (optional)<br />Salt and freshly ground pepper<br />1-2 tablespoons finely chopped onion, shallot or scallion<br />1 ½ tablespoon fresh herbs or 1 generous teaspoon dry <br />(optional) <br />2 tablespoons grated parmesan or other dry cheese <br />(optional) </p><p>Grate potatoes on the coarse side of a four-sided grater <br />onto a clean kitchen towel. Pull the corners together and <br />twist the towel tightly to remove as much water as possible <br />from the potatoes (sometimes a surprising volume). In a <br />bowl, add salt and pepper to taste and mix. Add egg and your <br />choice of other ingredients, if using, and mix well. </p><p>Heat a medium frying pan, preferably with sloping sides, <br />over low to moderate heat. Film the heated pan with olive <br />oil and add potatoes, pressing them to form an even pancake <br />which should be approximately ¾ inch thick. Adjust heat so <br />that browning occurs slowly, permitting the inside to cook. <br />When the bottom is nicely browned (lift an edge to see), <br />shake the pan to loosen the pancake, remove from the heat <br />and place an inverted plate over the pan. Turn the pancake <br />out onto the plate, add a small amount of oil to the pan and <br />slide the pancake back to continue cooking. Continue cooking <br />until the second side is well browned and the inside is done <br />(use a knife to make a small slit to check). If it is done <br />before the rest of the meal, pull it off the heat and reheat <br />just before serving. </p><p>This easily prepared and versatile side can be served under, <br />atop or beside the meat or fish, adding flavor and visual <br />appeal to your presentation. It is also a great way to get <br />the kids to eat potatoes! </p><p><br />-----------------------------------------</p><p>About the author:</p><p>An organic farmer and avid cook, writer Charlie Burke is the <br />vice president of the New Hampshire Farmer's Market <br />Association (<a href="http://www.nhfma.org">www.nhfma.org</a>).

But it seems that feather rufflers will always<br />be around.</p><p>We're told that 19th Century German statesman Prince Otto von Bismarck<br />once became so incensed at the criticism of a professor (he must have<br />ruffled the prince's feathers), that he challenged him to a duel.<br />Protocol had it that the one challenged was to have the choice of<br />weapons.</p><p>The professor made his choice...sausages! He sent word to Bismarck,<br />along with a pair of sausages, that one sausage was safe to eat. The<br />other had been poisoned with trichinae, which would cause a slow and<br />lingering death, or at least long invalidism. He informed the prince<br />that he should choose which sausage to eat and said he would eat the<br />other one.</p><p>Bismarck reasoned that a man might die with some sort of honor on a<br />dueling field, but never by food poisoning. He sent the message back,<br />"His highness has destroyed the sausages and asks that you be his<br />guest at dinner this evening. After due consideration he feels he may<br />have been slightly in error. He believes an agreement can be reached."</p><p>One of the most important trips a person ever takes is "to meet<br />someone halfway." Bismarck met his adversary halfway and chose to<br />bring something useful from his conflict.</p><p>When others ruffle our feathers, we always have a choice. We can meet<br />them on the dueling field, where one will clearly win and the other<br />will lose, or we can meet them halfway. Even armed only with words, we<br />can seek to hurt or we can seek a solution.</p><p>The choice we make will make all the difference.<br />__________</p><p>Steve Goodier <a href="mailto:Publisher@LifeSupportSystem.com">Publisher@LifeSupportSystem.com</a> is a professional<br />speaker, consultant and author of numerous books.

"They run from $2.00 to $2,000."</p><p>"Let's see the $2.00 model," he said.</p><p>The clerk put the device around the man's neck. "You just stick this<br />button in your ear and run this little string down to your pocket," he<br />instructed.</p><p>How does it work?" the customer asked.</p><p>"For $2.00 – it doesn’t work," the salesman replied. "But when people<br />see it on you, they'll talk louder!"</p><p>As you know, most communication problems are not due to people<br />talking too softly. Unfortunately, we are not always good<br />listeners. Do you know that people will pay hundreds of dollars an<br />hour for no other reason than to have someone listen to them?</p><p>Psychologist Carl Rogers said, "A person's real need, a most terrible<br />need, is for someone to listen…not as a 'patient' but as a human<br />soul." To listen well is to respond to a great human yearning.</p><p>One small child put it like this: "I'll try to listen louder."

The telephone rang. </p><p>It was as predictable as Niagara Falls. We had just sat down to <br />a piping hot dinner, so of course the telephone would ring. My <br />wife reminded me that just because the phone rings, doesn't mean <br />we have to answer it, but...</p><p>"Hello," I answered.</p><p>"Good evening, sir. I am calling to let you know about a <br />fantabulous new insurance program that will protect you, your <br />family and everyone you ever meet from warts," The Voice <br />declared. "Isn't this an exciting time to be spending on this <br />planet?"</p><p>"Are you trying to sell something?" I asked suspiciously, knowing <br />that the answer would be...</p><p>"Not at all, sir," The Voice assured me. "I am just calling to <br />let you know that you can now be protected against warts for much <br />less than you would think."</p><p>He greatly overestimated my fascination with the actuarial <br />aspects of living wartlessly. "And you are not trying to sell me <br />anything?" I asked hopefully.</p><p>"Of course not," The Voice repeated. "I am calling to protect <br />your entire family from warts forever."</p><p>"My grandmother is already protected against warts forever," I <br />mused out loud.</p><p>Complete silence. "How did she do that?" The Voice asked with <br />subdued awe.</p><p>"She died," I replied. "She's been protected for forty years, <br />now. We suspect that she will remain protected forever."</p><p>"Uh. I see," The Voice replied. "You, too, can be protected <br />against warts..."</p><p>"You want me to die?" I asked.</p><p>"No..."</p><p>"Honey, this telemarketer is threatening me," I called out into <br />the kitchen.</p><p>"Well get back here, then," my wife responded. "Your dinner is <br />getting cold."</p><p>"Now look here," The Voice began.</p><p>"Now see what you've done," I scolded into the telephone. <br />"You've upset my wife. You could at least have waited until after <br />dinner to threaten me."</p><p>My wife called out again. "Why do you have to answer the phone <br />during dinner? Just because it rings doesn't mean you have to <br />answer it."</p><p>I shouted back. "It would be rude not to answer. The Voice took <br />time out of his busy schedule to warn us about warts - the least <br />we can do is take the time to thank him. Now," I said into the <br />phone. "About those threats."</p><p>"See here, I did not threaten you," The Voice tried to explain. " <br />I am simply trying to help you get rid of your warts."</p><p>"Do I have warts?" I asked in amazement. "Sa-ay, how would you <br />know if I have warts?"</p><p>"I don't. I mean, you might. That is..."</p><p>"Have you gotten rid of the telemarketer yet?" my wife called to <br />me.</p><p>"Not yet, honey. He's diagnosing my warts," I called back.</p><p>"No, you misunderstand," The Voice began.</p><p>"What warts?" my wife asked, as she came into the room.</p><p>"He says I have warts," I explained.</p><p>"I did not say you had warts," The Voice tried to interject.</p><p>"Well, tell him you don't have any," my wife said.</p><p>"OK. I will," I said to my wife. Then into the phone, "I think <br />you have a mistake. I don't have warts. Where did you get my <br />number from?"</p><p>"I have this list of names..." The Voice tried to reply.</p><p>"Could you please hang up?" My wife begged. "Just because the <br />telephone rings does not mean we have to answer it."</p><p>"OK," I said.</p><p>"Now please get rid of the telemarketer so we can enjoy our nice, <br />chilling dinner," she said with not a hint of sarcasm in her <br />voice.</p><p>"My wife wants me to eat my dinner," I explained to The Voice. <br />"Can I please have your telephone number so that we can continue <br />this most educational discussion tomorrow morning?"</p><p>"I'm not going to give you my phone number," The Voice retorted.</p><p>"Don't be silly. How can I call you back if you don't give me <br />your number?" I asked.</p><p>"I don't want you to call me back. I just..." The Voice tried to <br />explain.</p><p>"Now hold on just a cotton-pickin' minute," I said. "You're the <br />one who wanted to talk to me in the first place. I am doing you <br />a favor by taking the time to speak with you on a subject of your <br />choosing. The least you can do is let me call you at the time of <br />my choosing, so that I can enjoy a nice hot meal with my wife. <br />Sa-ay, are you one of those anti-family crusaders, calling people <br />during dinnertime just to keep families from spending quality <br />time together? I've heard about people like you..."</p><p>-------</p><p>A few minutes later, I returned to my dinner, which by now was as <br />cold as a penguin with no feathers. "So you finally hung up on <br />the telemarketer?" my wife asked. "Good for you."</p><p>"Not quite," I admitted.</p><p>"What?" my wife started. "Is he still on the phone?"</p><p>"I don't think so," I replied. "I think the telemarketer hung <br />up on me."</p><p>ABOUT THE AUTHOR</p><p>David Leonhardt is author of Climb Your Stairway to Heaven<br /><a href="http://www.chapters.indigo.ca/Item.asp?Catalog=Books&Item=059517826X">http://www.chapters.indigo.ca/Item.asp?Catalog=Books&Item=059517826X</a><br />Read more personal growth articles:<br /><a href="http://www.thehappyguy.com/self-actualization-articles.html">http://www.thehappyguy.com/self-actualization-articles.html</a><br />Visit his liquid vitamins store:<br /><a href="http://www.vitamin-supplements-store.net">http://www.vitamin-supplements-store.net</a><br />Or his happiness website:<br /><a href="http://www.thehappyguy.com">http://www.thehappyguy.com</a></p><p><br />ABOUT THE AUTHOR (in html)</p><p>David Leonhardt is author of one of the href=http://www.booksamillion.com/ncom/books?isbn=059517826X>best <br />self-help books about happiness and of many href=http://www.thehappyguy.com/self-actualization-articles.html><br />free motivational articles for reprint.

We've had many blessings <br />throughout the year and some ups and downs too that make life <br />interesting to say the least.</p><p>I occasionally hear on the news or radio people asking for us to <br />give to help others during the Holidays and I can't help but <br />think of how we should do this all year long. I may sound a <br />little offbeat, but I still haven't figured out why the Holidays <br />should be any different. I live in Virginia so is it the snow, <br />the lights, the Holiday decorations? Is it because the calendar <br />says something happened once upon a time many, many years ago and <br />we should celebrate this time by spending until we hurt and can't <br />pay our bills or eat until we're sick? I made a conscious choice <br />not to do that anymore, years ago. I love to give but I refuse to <br />teach my Grandchildren that this is a time of receiving <br />everything they've seen on television and that this is a time of <br />getting and not giving. One day, years from now, they will <br />remember the importance of what I instilled in them and <br />incorporate their own traditions into their celebrations too.</p><p>I like to give people things they like and want too, but I also <br />give gifts that make people think. Oh, I may give some pajamas, <br />socks, a toy or two, but I like to give books and gifts that are <br />laid upon my heart, knowing they will also touch my loved ones <br />heart too. I believe a kind word, a loving hug, a gentle smile, <br />patience and a warm cookie can heal so much. In a time when <br />people are searching for the meaning of their lives, I feel my <br />gifts all year long definitely come from the heart. My wish for <br />now and everyday and year is that people slow down and really, <br />truly see how blessed they are.</p><p>I know there are people all over the world that don't have enough <br />to eat, warm clothes, a place to live.... But I also know, I can <br />help people, one person at a time. I do my part all year long, do <br />you? I only wish I could do more, but I do know, I do the best I <br />can do and my heart has peace with that. I also know this next <br />year I will do even better, because I have love, peace and light <br />in my heart and right now... I share some of it with you.</p><p>Many blessings all... for a wonderful Holiday. Please take the <br />time to slip away from the hustle and bustle for a moment and <br />just give thanks to your Higher Power and have faith that if <br />there are things in your life that need more attention or a <br />miracle, that when we give thanks that we've already received it <br />or something even better... that all things come in Divine timing <br />and when we're truly ready.</p><p><br />Copyright: Mystickblue (c) November, 2004 All rights reserved.</p><p>About the Author</p><p>Fran Hafey is a Spiritual Counselor, Healer, Writer, Earth/Animal <br />Activist and Teacher.

Though doctors did everything medically<br />possible to stop the premature delivery, our youngest grandson<br />was born.</p><p> There was no room in the inn, as all the beautiful new<br />birthing rooms were filled.</p><p> We were given a small dingy room that was never intended to<br />be used again, awaiting remodeling. In fact, it had never been a<br />delivery room at all and there was barely room for the needed<br />medical equipment.</p><p> Only a few were allowed to remain present, squeezing quietly<br />into a corner as the doctor suddenly received an urgent message<br />from heaven that this baby should be born, now! And, now it was,<br />as it seemed only a matter of seconds that the physician broke<br />the water, reached in, and pulled the baby out. And, I thought,<br />"Wow! They can do that!?"</p><p> Literally beyond purple, next came what seemed like a very<br />lengthy silence as they hurried toward getting the baby prepared<br />for an incubator. Finally, he breathed his first breath of life.<br />Then ... the next ... and ... the next.</p><p> Though they couldn't promise that our grandson would make it<br />through the night, it was a miracle that he was alive at all. We<br />quietly listened, as he labored to breath, in awe, knowing that<br />every next breath was, yet, another miracle and that God intended<br />this child to live!</p><p> December 25th isn't the exact day of Jesus' birth, as an<br />infant. Yet, it is the time of year when lambs are born.</p><p> Reminded of the first Bethlehem, I now see the similitude of<br />a child, confronted with the gates of hell, struggling to be born<br />before the world is ready to receive him; every next breath of<br />the Spirit, beyond all obstacles, yet another miracle.</p><p> Bethlehem came without decorations, packages, ribbons, or<br />bows. And now I know, Bethlehem is a celebration of life ...<br />more abundantly! And, the light that glows at the nativity scene<br />is really the illumination of God's presence, as He wouldn't have<br />missed it for the world!</p><p> Christmas traditions lose their attraction at the very<br />presence of God. And, where two or more are gathered<br />together, sharing joys of the Lord, He'll be there. And,<br />wherever He is, it's always ... CHRISTMAS!</p><p> Never settle for less than the best.</p><p><br />© by Joyce C. Lock</p><p>.................................................................</p><p>About the Author:</p><p>Joyce C.

Once discovered, such opportunities are like<br />valuable diamonds hidden in the sand.</p><p>When I was a church pastor, a man stopped by my office to see me.<br />He held out his hand and in it was a small, plastic gem stone. "I<br />stepped on this gem stone when I was leaving church last Sunday,"<br />he explained. "It became lodged in the sole of my shoe. You had<br />spoken about how we are surrounded by diamonds -- we only need<br />to recognize them. I put the plastic stone in my pocket to remind<br />me to recognize the "diamonds" that I need.</p><p>"I have been trying to sell my business. On Monday morning, a man<br />stopped by who seemed interested in purchasing my stock. I<br />thought, 'Here's my diamond - don't let it get away!' I sold the<br />entire stock to him by noon.</p><p>"Now," he said through a broad smile, "my next diamond is to find<br />a new job!"</p><p>Not long afterward, he did find his new job. And he resolved to<br />keep his gem stone with him from then on as a reminder to look<br />for diamonds in every situation.</p><p>Richard DeVos is accurate when he points out, "This is an<br />exciting world. It is cram-packed with opportunity. Great moments<br />wait around every corner." Those moments are diamonds that, if<br />left unrecognized, will be forever lost.</p><p>Are you looking for diamonds every day? If not, you may easily<br />pass them by!</p><p>Perhaps there is a diamond of opportunity hidden in that<br />difficulty you're experiencing now.<br />__________</p><p>Steve Goodier <a href="mailto:Publisher@LifeSupportSystem.com">Publisher@LifeSupportSystem.com</a> is a professional<br />speaker, consultant and author of numerous books.

I lived in Lancaster, California, which is about 50 <br />miles north of Los Angeles. This is dessert area. Very hot in the <br />summer time and snow every three years in the winter time.</p><p>This particular winter was an easy winter. At least the weather was <br />easy. My life started to crumble before my very eyes.</p><p>At the ripe age of 38, I almost had a stroke on my job and was <br />ordered by my doctor to quit my job. Quit my job! What was I going to <br />do? We were in a small town and jobs were scarce! </p><p>I could never find a job with the job security I had with the State <br />of California. The good part is I had a choice, if you could call it <br />that. I could stay on my current job and risk dying there or I could <br />quit and live for my child. What a choice! For me, there was only one <br />choice. My child came first.</p><p>The only work I had ever done was in offices and most of the jobs <br />listed in the local paper wanted you to type 80 words per minute. I <br />must admit typing was never my best attribute and 80 words per minute <br />was way out of my range; 60 words per minute was more in my range.</p><p>I had managed to save a little nest egg while I was working and drew <br />out my retirement money. I tried to start a home business, but failed <br />with that. My money was almost gone and I didn't have anything to <br />fall back on.</p><p>On top of all of that, it was getting close to Christmas. Now what? <br />The only alternative I had was to go to the Dept of Public Services <br />[better known as welfare]. They told me it would be two months before <br />I could receive any money, although I would get food stamps right <br />away. Well, at least I knew we would eat at Christmas time! What <br />about gifts, a tree and all the other things that my daughter and I <br />had gotten used to all those years? You know, the "traditional" <br />things all families in the United States had at Christmas? I knew one <br />thing, I couldn't and wouldn't let my daughter down!</p><p>I took sewing in school, had made men's suits at one time and had an <br />old sewing machine. A friend of mine had given me ten bolts of <br />material they had stashed away when cleaning out their garage. I <br />would make my daughter some clothes for Christmas. </p><p>My daughter, at 11 years old, was so brave. After I explained our <br />situation to her, she set about asking one of our neighbors to teach <br />her how to do macrame. If you aren't familiar with this craft, it was <br />used to make the plant holders they had then out of yarn.</p><p>I didn't know she was doing this and I set about sewing her Christmas <br />gifts while she spent time at the neighbors house. I thought she was <br />playing and having a good time.</p><p>I still had one problem. What would I do about a tree? I told my <br />daughter that we wouldn't be able to have a tree this Christmas. She <br />said to me, "Mom, why not use a tumbleweed?". I thought about it and <br />said why not? They were plentiful in the dessert and free.</p><p>We went out and chose a tumbleweed just as if we were picking out the <br />perfect Christmas tree. When we found the right one, we came home, <br />put lights on it and popped pop corn and strung them for the tree.</p><p>Christmas morning we arose full of anticipation and excitement. I was <br />surprised to find two gifts under the tree with my name on them. How <br />did my daughter get me two gifts? She had no money.</p><p>When I questioned her about it, she said, "Just open them mom!". I <br />opened them and was pleasantly surprised! They were simply beautiful. <br />They even matched my decor! She explained how all the time she had <br />spent at the neighbors house, she had been learning to make these for <br />me. This touched my heart to the core. </p><p>I have never forgot it to this day. Neither has my daughter. When she <br />talks about Christmas now, she always mentions our tumbleweed <br />Christmas and how she remembers that Christmas over all the rest. She <br />always refers to it as the best Christmas we ever had.</p><p>****************************************************************</p><p>Jane Fulton is the owner of 5 websites and publishes three <br />newsletters.

The "Denver Post"<br />printed an article December 23, 1981 about a stranger-than-fact event<br />that occurred in Colorado.</p><p>Stan Sieczkowski heard in church about a Denver family facing a rather<br />bleak Christmas holiday. Medical bills robbed them of any extras; they<br />would not even have a tree.</p><p>So Stan and his son Jay determined to get them that tree. They headed<br />up into the Colorado Rockies in the family pickup. However, the truck<br />skidded off the icy road and hit a boulder that shattered the<br />windshield. Jay was showered by glass slivers and suffered from shock<br />and crash trauma. Stan was uninjured, though somewhat shaken.</p><p>Cars sped past that day -- maybe 200 of them. Only two stopped. A<br />gentle, dark-haired woman took the boy into her car to comfort him<br />while her husband and another man helped Stan move his truck off the<br />road. Then they drove father and son to Stan's home and quietly left<br />without identifying themselves.</p><p>Later that month, Stan's pastor asked if he might deliver a food<br />basket to the unfortunate family for which he had earlier tried to cut<br />a tree. Stan found the house, but he could hardly find his speech when<br />the door opened. Standing there before him was the same couple who had<br />helped him on the mountain road!</p><p>Call it an amazing coincidence...or call it divine providence. Some<br />mysteries are better left unanalyzed. But it is nice to remember that,<br />when we give our hearts away in a spirit of generosity, we can still<br />brush up against wonder, joy and love.</p><p>- By Steve Goodier<br />__________</p><p>Steve Goodier <a href="mailto:Publisher@LifeSupportSystem.com">Publisher@LifeSupportSystem.com</a> is a professional<br />speaker, consultant and author of numerous books.

There are days when you hardly feel it, and other days when it rages around trees and buildings, ripping off leaves and roofs, and in some parts of the world even escalating into a monster that destroys entire cities! Then there are times when the wind alleviates us gently, playfully caressing our arms and cheeks, and providing us just that little bit of comfort we need in order to know that we're alive.</p><p /><p>Many of us may not necessarily associate the wind with mentorism, but if you think about it, the idea is not as odd as it initially may sound. The wind has been lauded in many a song, poem, or story throughout time. And for various reasons: it is mysterious yet familiar; stern yet gentle; unseen yet very existent; playful yet serious. There are many sides to the wind, and there are numerous lessons captured in its very nature.</p><p /><p>The wind has been known to sweep down huge, strong trees with massive trunks, yet merely bending the more vulnerable ones with hollow, soft cores. Is that a matter of cooperating? Is, perhaps, the lesson captured in this fact one of the value of flexibility? </p><p /><p>There is so much to learn from the wind. Maybe nothing new, but definitely a number of points we can all agree upon:</p><p /><p>* The wind is important. Not because it is always there, but because it appears regularly: for easing the heat, for bringing fresh air from fresh sources, and for cleaning the pollution in the air. Just like a mentor, who does not micro-manage his or her subordinates, but is there at crucial times to bring order and comfort when needed.</p><p /><p>* The wind is genuine: it does not hide, and definitely does not park its soul anywhere: it brings along its moods, whether gentle, upset, happy, or outraged. You always know where you stand with the wind: just like a mentor who expresses his or her feelings openly, unafraid of possible repercussions through backstabbing. Knowing his or her value and the importance of teaching others to be their own self, this mentor refuses to act insincere by putting on different hats for different audiences: he or she remains authentic under all circumstances, just like the wind. </p><p /><p>* The wind has a sense of humor: it surprises everyone in the most unexpected moments with something to make them laugh, just like a mentor who knows that people sometimes need to hear something that will distract them from the monotony of being serious all the time. </p><p /><p>* The wind is thorough: depending on the urgency of the task at hand, it blows in and through places where no one would expect it. Just like the mentor who goes the extra mile and doesn't stop, even when the trail seems to run to a dead end: Here is where inventiveness comes into play: finding ways that no one else thought of before. Just like the wind. </p><p /><p>* The wind surprises: it keeps a healthy dosage of astoundment in tact to break the tedious pattern of the day or week. And that's what a mentor does: tapping out of various sources, and bringing on the table various aspects that the mentee had not counted on, leaving him or her in awe.</p><p /><p>* The wind does not discriminate: it blows with the same intensity for everyone. Just like a mentor, who provides the same approach to everyone who seeks his or her guidance.</p><p /><p>Ever considered this comparison before? Maybe you did, and maybe not. But it always helps to maintain respect for an old mate that we ignore too often, but that can teach us so much about the appropriate ways of interacting with one another.</p><p><br />Dr. Joan Marques,<br />Burbank, CA, 10/30/04</p><p /><p>About the Author:</p><p /><p>Joan Marques emigrated from Suriname, South America, to California, U.S., in 1998.

Food and money were still extremely scarce and bartering<br />was used extensively. </p><p>One day, Mr. Miller was bagging some early potatoes for me. I noticed a<br />small boy, delicate of bone and feature, ragged but clean, hungrily<br />apprising a basket of freshly picked green peas. </p><p>I paid for my potatoes but was also drawn to the display of fresh green<br />peas. I am a pushover for creamed peas and new potatoes. Pondering the<br />peas, I couldn't help overhearing the conversation between Mr. Miller and<br />the ragged boy next to me. </p><p>"Hello Barry, how are you today?" </p><p>"H'lo, Mr. Miller. Fine, thank ya. Jus' admirin' them peas . sure look<br />good." </p><p>"They are good, Barry. How's your Ma?" </p><p>"Fine. Gittin' strong er alla' time." </p><p>"Good. Anything I can help you with?" </p><p>"No, Sir. Jus' admirin' them peas." </p><p>"Would you like to take some home?" </p><p>"No, Sir. Got nuthin' to pay for 'em with." </p><p>"Well, what have you to trade me for some of those peas?" </p><p>"All I got's my prize marble here." </p><p>"Is that right? Let me see it" </p><p>"Here 'tis. She's a dandy." </p><p>"I can see that. Hmmmmm, only thing is this one is blue and I sort of go<br />for red. Do you have a red one like this at home?" </p><p>"Not zackley ... but almost." </p><p>"Tell you what. Take this sack of peas home with you and next trip this way<br />let me look at that red marble." </p><p>"Sure will. Thanks Mr. Miller" </p><p>Mrs. Miller, who had been standing nearby, came over to help me. With a<br />smile she said, "There are two other boys like him in our community, all<br />three are in very poor circumstances. Jim just loves to bargain with them<br />for peas, apples, tomatoes, or whatever When they come back with their red<br />marbles, and they always do, he decides he doesn't like red after all and he<br />sends them home with a bag of produce for a green marble or an orange one,<br />perhaps." </p><p>I left the stand smiling to myself, impressed with this man. A short time<br />later, I moved to Colorado, but I never forgot the story of this man, the<br />boys, and their bartering. Several years went by, each more rapid that the<br />previous one. Just recently, I had occasion to visit some old friends in<br />that Idaho community, and while I was there learned that Mr. Miller had<br />died. They were having his viewing that evening and knowing my friends<br />wanted to go, I agreed to accompany them. </p><p>Upon arrival at the mortuary, we fell into line to meet the relatives of the<br />deceased and to offer whatever words of comfort we could. Ahead of us in<br />line were three young men. One was in an army uniform, and the other two<br />wore nice haircuts, dark suits, and white shirts ... all very professional<br />looking. They approached Mrs. Miller, standing composed and smiling by her<br />husband's casket. Each of the young men hugged her, kissed her on the cheek,<br />spoke briefly with her and moved on to the casket. Her misty light blue eyes<br />followed them as, one by one, each young man stopped briefly and placed his<br />own warm hand over the cold, pale hand in the casket. Each left the<br />mortuary awkwardly, wiping his eyes. </p><p>Our turn came to meet Mrs. Miller. I told her who I was and mentioned the<br />story she had told me about the marbles. With her eyes glistening, she took<br />my hand and led me to the casket. </p><p>"Those three young men who just left were the boys I told you about. They<br />just told me how they appreciated the things Jim "traded" them. Now, at<br />last, when Jim could not change his mind about color or size . they came to<br />pay their debt." </p><p>"We've never had a great deal of the wealth of this world," she confided,<br />"but right now, Jim would consider himself the richest man in Idaho." </p><p>With loving gentleness, she lifted the lifeless fingers of her deceased<br />husband. Resting underneath were three exquisitely shined red marbles. </p><p>Moral: We will not be remembered by our words, but by our kind deeds. </p><p>Life is not measured by the breaths we take, but by the moments that take<br />our breath. </p><p>Today .. I wish you a day of ordinary miracles ... </p><p>......... A fresh pot of coffee you didn't make yourself. </p><p>......... An unexpected phone call from an old friend, </p><p>....... Green stoplights on your way to work, </p><p>......... The fastest line at the grocery store. </p><p>........ A good sing-along song on the radio, </p><p>........ Your keys right where you left them </p><p>They say it takes a minute to find a special person, An hour to appreciate<br />them, A day to love them, But an entire life to forget them. </p><p><br />******************************<br />Ad Programs<br />******************************</p><p>My Wizard Ads</p><p> <br />New Explosive Internet Communications Business Op'portunity <br />MyVideoTalk puts the punch into email w/multi media & Web<br />Communications for Everyone.
