While watching the recent movie, CATS, I noticed that two of its main actresses appear to have crossbites. Just what is causing the huge increase of crossbites over these last two decades?

Your Place in the Cosmos

You came for a reason.  Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to leave this world a better place.  You, yes you.  

“When I say it's you I like, I'm talking about that part of you that knows that life is far more than anything you can ever see or hear or touch. That deep part of you that allows you to stand for those things without which humankind cannot survive. Love that conquers hate, peace that rises triumphant over war, and justice that proves more powerful than greed.” - FRED ROGERS

You have the power to do remarkable things... should you choose to accept the assignment.

What can you do when everything has gone wrong?  What can you do when  you have no money?  What can you do in a disaster?

You, yes you, can do remarkable things.  You can find it in you to reach inside and change anything for yourself that you want to change.  

You are remarkable.  You are full of love.

You, yes you.

A rainy day can be a contemplative day. 

Curled up in a wing chair, feet on the ottoman, steaming cup of coffee in hand.  A beautiful moment to contemplate, cherish and savor. 

Never mind the metaphorical rainy day, but rather imagine the actuality of the soft rain, the very green of the wet trees and plants, and scents of the moist air laced with wet plant, mud, decaying fallen leaves and fresh rain.

Grab your opportunity soon, to ponder and enjoy just such a moment, hopefully on a weekend day of rest.  Inhale the scents, absorb what your eyes can take in and listen to the sounds, no matter the season, of the insects, birds, and dripping rain.

Go to gratitude.

Can you feel it?  As you relax into it, think of so many things you are grateful for - loves, work to do, goals to meet, and the rainy day.

Close your eyes and just be.
​
Be.
In.
Joy.

Growing.
Learning.
Changing.
Going for it.

Moving forward keeps you happy.  And, conversely, stagnation is dying.

Live life to its fullest.  Search for what you want to learn, become. 

Look around you and notice friends, colleagues, others who seem really happy, probably really active, busy.  Ask them what they are learning.  Ask them what drives them.  Ask.

Choose something to read, to learn about, to work toward.  
Ask your husband or wife to do it with you.

Maybe get Norman Vincent Peale’s book, “The Power of Positive Thinking”.  Good place to start.

Read it aloud to each other.  You’ll be amazed at the results.

And you’ll be growing, learning, changing!
​
Joy awaits!
