"You have it easily in your power to increase the sum total of this world's happiness now.  How?  By giving a few words of sincere appreciation to someone who is lonely or discouraged.  Perhaps you will forget tomorrow the kind words you say today, but the recipient may cherish them over a lifetime."
  
~Dale Carnegie

"Appreciation of life itself,
becoming suddenly aware
of the miracle of being alive,  on this planet,
can turn what we call ordinary life into a miracle. 
We come awake to such a realization when
we recognize our connection to a spiritual dimension."

"The word "appreciation" means
to be thankful and express
admiration, approval, or gratitude. 
It also means to grow or appreciate in value. 
As you appreciate life, you become more valuable—
both to yourself and others."

"Appreciation is a wonderful thing: 
It makes what is excellent in others
belong to us as well."

Hey Sweetie,
   
Happy Monday!!!
   
I'm so glad you are here with me
I hope you had a lovely weekend
Mine was good
My Razorbacks won - it was expected
But for the most part they played very well
This Saturday will be a much tougher test
   
I wish you a Delicious Day!

I invite you to join me now in this short Metta Prayer
Radiating the energy of peace and love out to all living beings
Take a few deep breaths to clear your mind
And focus on the here and now
This present moment
Now
Breathe in
Filling your being with peace and love
As you begin each line, breathe out slowly
Breathing these thoughts into the world
Reading, thinking, and feeling the words with peace and love
Sending them from your heart
Giving the energy to yourself and to all living beings
Breathe in and repeat the process for each line

“You are not white,
but a rainbow of colors.
You are not black,
but golden.
You are not just a nationality,
but a citizen of the world.
You are not just for the right or left,
but for what is right over the wrong.
You are not just rich or poor,
but always wealthy in the mind and heart.
You are not perfect, but flawed.
You are flawed, but you are just.
You may just be conscious human,
but you are also a magnificent
reflection of God.”

Love yourself.
Seek goodness and be goodness.

Learn to enjoy every minute of your life.
Be happy now.
Don't wait for something outside of yourself
to make you happy in the future.
Think how really precious
is the time you have to spend,
whether it's at work or with your family.
Every minute should be enjoyed and savored.

Hey Sweetie,
     
Happy Tuesday!
     
I hope you are doing well, my Friend
In the face of ever increasing hatred, division, and violence

For only Love can overcome hate
 Only Love can Bring us and Keep us Together

To all those affected by the violence in Las Vegas
I ask that you join us in our daily Metta Prayer 
The people of our world need our Loving Energy
         
I wish you a Loving Day
         
Let us continue to promote
Peace and Love

 Phabulous Video Editing to a Great Song!!!!
               
I've done lots of video editing
And I can tell you from experience
That this is a very well crafted music video
There are so many movie clips
It must have taken a very long time to put this together
Notice how well the movements of the dancers
Sync so well to the beats of the music

The Bather by Henry Scott Tuke

Being Naked
by Madisyn Taylor (The Daily OM)
   
"There is a freedom in being naked that few enjoy
because we have been learned to be embarrassed."

               
"For most of us, it is probably difficult to remember the last time we were comfortably naked for a period of time longer than 20 minutes or so. Many of us are only naked for the length of time it takes us to shower or bathe. We quickly dry off and put our clothes or pajamas on, without taking even a moment to enjoy the feeling of the air against our bare skin. Most of us learned that this was the way to do things from a young age, and we may not have been exposed to another way of thinking, but many cultures regard nudity as completely acceptable, even in somewhat public settings. If you have ever had the good fortune to assimilate yourself to this way of doing things, you may have found the experience liberating enough to allow it to influence the rest of your life.
   
Perhaps you swam topless in Tahiti or took a sauna in Sweden or Finland. In many American cities, you can find the experience of unselfconscious nudity in a Russian or Korean spa. You may have noticed the lack of vanity in people who are comfortable with their naked bodies. Old ladies and young girls sit side by side, seemingly without concern for how they appear. We see that it is not necessary to hide our imperfections; from cellulite to wrinkles, all is accepted with equilibrium. We can see the beauty and naturalness of our different bodies, accepting ourselves as just right, just as we are. Being naked in front of children can be discussed with your spouse and a plan developed for your family. Children have their way of letting you know when they are ready for a clothes-only family.
   
If this sounds appealing, you might try carving out some time in your day in which you let yourself be naked. You could delay dressing for 10 minutes after your shower, gradually increasing the time to 20 minutes or half an hour. You might also want to try sleeping naked, a sensual delight that is especially wonderful in hot summer months. If you have a private garden, a naked sunbath might be just the thing. Whatever your choice, finding time to be as naked as the day you were born can awaken feelings of contentment, freedom, and self-love."
