THE WORDS I WRITE, THE LIFE I LIVE

5 Windows
on my way to work the other day.
It was red, that faded, super old red that says, I am still hot!
I can’t say just why I love those trucks built back in the early 1950s.
But I do!
HOW MUCH
how long would we stay where we are?
If we got in return as much as we give,
would we be overwhelmed with abundance
or would our pockets be empty?
If we could live off the equal amount we give to others,
would we be well nourished
or would we suffer from malnutrition?

HISTORY
TREASURE
FAITH IN ONESELF
–The history of the world is the history of a few men who had “faith in themselves”.
Swami Vivekananda said that all “knowledge” is already there in oneself. Why cannot he express it? Because he does not believe in this. The moment you start believing it must and will come out. You can do anything. You fail only when you do not believe and strive sufficiently to manifest the infinite power within.
The greatest help to us comes from “faith in ourselves”. Faith in ourselves should be extensively learned and practiced on a daily basis. Throughout the history of mankind , if any motive power has been potent than another in the lives of great men and women, it that of “faith in themselves”.
No matter what the situation of a man he has to learn faith in himself at some point in his life. So it is better to know this and practice faith in self form the very first.
Whatever you think of yourself, that you will be. If you think yourself weak, weak you will be; If you think you are strong, strong shall you be.
He who has no faith in himself can never have faith in God.

IRISH BROGUE
I love listening to all the different accents.
But my favorite is the Irish Brogue.
There is something so down to earth and beautiful
about the sound of their accent.
I wish I could hear it all the time.
However, the Kentucky accent comes very close in my adoration!

SCARY ROBIN HOOD
My children loved watching Walt Disney’s version of the fable. They watched it so often I can still sing all the darling songs.
In 1991 the Kevin Costner version came out. I liked it. I got a VHS copy and it became a family favorite. My daughters called it “Scary Robin Hood”.
I miss watching it with my kids.

NAPPING IS HEALTHY
- Accept napping as a positive thing. Remind yourself that a power nap can actually make a day more productive. Do not equate napping with being lazy.
- Do not fight the body’s desire to nap. This will result in unpleasant or unproductive days, or in some cases worse as one often battles fatigue with extra caffeine.
- Take naps when you can. If your schedule does not permit a nap every day, consider taking short, productive naps as needed.
- Consider time and duration. Napping for too long, too often, or at the wrong time of day can be counterproductive. Experiment with what length and schedule works best for you. There are many phone timer apps that can help you set up a length that works best.
- Napping can mean just taking a brain break. Lying on a hammock or just staring into space is the essence of rest – it is the act of not doing that refreshes you in body and mind.
- Consider using a meditation app that guides you through a 10-15-minute session – if naps aren’t your thing. A dedicated meditation practice can quiet an anxious mind and can have the same calming effect as a nap
EMMYMADE
I enjoyed her cooking show so much I followed her on FB.
She is fun!
I couldn’t understand what she said.
On one episode she wore a T-shirt that’s read Eat The Ducky Moss.
So I read the subtitles on the episode and looked up the word she said.
I found this one little saying adds to her charm.
Look her up. She is really fun and inspiring to watch!
