Today, I will share with you a few of the things I am thankful for.  These things come from my Things I am Thankful For list.  Which I do daily.   Why?  Because every day is a day of giving thanks.  Yea, laugh and mock if you will. I know how corny it sounds.  But it's my personal belief, my way of life and how I roll.   That's my story and I'm sticking to it. So why make a list?   Helps me from leaving anything out for starters.  More importantly, it puts things in perspective.   Having a literal list allows me to actually see how much there is to be thankful for.    Speaking of which, there is so much we all take for granted.  So much we don't even think about because we're so use to having it around.  You know like running water, indoor plumbing, electricity; having a stove and refrigerator, microwave, coffee maker.  A bed, a pillow, sheets and blankets.  To name a few.      And yes! ...

Studies have proven that we rarely keep our New Year’s resolutions.   I believe the reason for this is due to feelings of being deprived.  And when we feel deprived, we tend to get a bit rebellious!  I know I do.    For me and many others like myself,  it’s not like we don’t have the will power, we just don’t want to do without.   So!  For 2014 I am going to pass on a wonderful suggestion that was graciously and generously passed to me by EFT Master and Pioneer Carol Look.   Instead of taking away anything from your life this new year, why not Add Something Good instead? The following is an excerpt from her latest newsletter: So what could you ADD to your life in this New Year?  More fun? More healthy foods? More meditation time? More nature walks? More gratitude?  How about more tapping? Or more quiet time or more reading?   There's so much we can add... and it will take the place of those hab...

One of the people I adore, admire and respect is pop star sensation Lady Ga Ga.   She's not only a talented performer and entertainer, but she is outrageous, bold and courageous.   And I Love IT! In my humble opinion, Lady Ga Ga is one of the few people in this world who outwardly exemplifies embracing all that they are!   What can I say?  I Love Ga Ga!   She is who she is -- and she makes no apologies for it! Please know that, I'm no way under any misguided belief that she has no issues.  She's only human after all! However, whatever issues she may have or had -- makes  Lady Ga Ga a shining example of embracing all that you are.  And I adore her for it! *~*~*~*~* Recently I was reading a recent newsletter from  EFT Practitioner and Author,  Margaret Lynch (another talented and truly gifted woman I Love to pieces!).  In it she talked about how Rolling Stone Magazine had referred to Lady Ga Ga's then rec...

When it comes to genuinely forgiving -- I fall short.  Way short ! I know this only because … I can rattle off the names of a half dozen people  who have gone out of their way to slander me, hurt me and my family in some way.   And not only that,   every once in a while -- I actually take a few minutes to envision these assholes  being trampled by a flock of 100 foot mutant chickens.   It puts a smile on my face!   Makes me giggle!  Seriously -- who wouldn’t laugh at the thought of someone running from a gigantic chicken? Don’t get me wrong -- I don’t spend too much time on these fantasies.   Those morons aren’t worth the time and energy.  But still … whenever I need a good laugh  … I just flip on that imagination switch and let those mutant chickens run rampant! *~*~* Entertaining thoughts such as these is what  EFT Practitioner Margaret Lynch refers to as “Negative Pleasures.”    Accor...
