This blog is going to change it's focus. I'm going to be posting my Memoir/Novel called, Lost and Found, in a serialized fashion. I call it a 'Memoir/Novel' because it is the true story of my youth, but I've changed all names, including my own. There is a Table of Contents in the left sidebar. Just click the links to read from the beginning or to read any part you may have missed. I have added a New Chapter Notice Form on the right. Just leave your first name and email address and I'll let you know directly when there's a new chapter. I'd also love to hear your comments.

Be well -- Be in Peace!

Thoughts About Tax Cuts

posted in Activism |

Hello again — It has been quite some time since I posted here. I’ve been so busy with the Obama campaign and my other writing projects, that I’ve let this blog slip by the wayside.

I’ve decided to change the focus of this blog away from nutrition and weight loss and on to a place where I can write about whatever happens to be on my mind at the moment. This obviously, won’t be search engine friendly, but I’m more interested in sharing my thinking with all of you than I am with the SEO spiders.

Today, I’m very focused on the election for the Presidency of the USA. I do support Barack Obama because I believe in my heart-of-hearts that he is the person to pull this country back to it’s roots.

One of the topics both candidates are taking about is the Tax Plans. I recorded a short video which I hope will explain the difference between the two plans in language you can understand.

(If, for some reason the video doesn’t function properly, here’s a direct link to it:
Video about Tax Plans

Here the video:





Hope you were able to understand it. I haven’t done many of these videos so I’m not comfortable with them as yet.

As I said, be sure you get out and vote next week. Today and tomorrow are the last days for early voting here in Ohio, and if you can still vote early where you live, go do it. No sense in waiting until the last minute.

I’ll try to keep this blog a little more up-to-date in the future — and if this video concept works the way I hope it will, I’ll probably make more use of it.

Take care — have a great day.

Always remember this wonderful quote from Buddha ….


“You yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love and affection.”

~~~ Buddha

==============================================
I meditate every day to help keep me sane in this crazy world we live in. Those glimpses we get of peace, love, acceptance and happiness when we’re meditating will soon grow into more than glimpses if we keep practicing. Keep those feelings alive. A meditation can be as simple as one, deep, conscious breath. When something happens in one of your moments to cause you to suffer, just stop and take one of those breaths and remember, “This too shall pass!” Another thing that is wonderful, especially at certain times of the year, is to have a fresh flower where you work. Just stop from time-to-time and look at it — don’t label it — don’t judge it — just be with it for a couple of moments. It really does work. I’m looking at mine as I write this.


“Each flower is a soul blossoming out to natureâ€

~~~ Gerard de Nerva


=======================================


“Those who really seek the path to Enlightenment dictate terms to their mind. Then they proceed with strong determination.â€

~~~ Buddha

Namaste!

I share these words for you in closing — .


“Be happy now, my dear friends. Today is all we have. Be good to one another. Take comfort in whatever spirituality you are so inclined (or not), and learn to be happy despite your circumstances. Follow your path; pursue your dreams. Work hard, love your family, be generous and forgiving. Do it today, while you still have the flicker of life, for one day your own candle will dim.”

You are special — and you are loved. You are the greatest gift you can be.

Shanti … (A sanscrit word meaning, “Let there be Peace. Peace, beautiful Peace. Peace within, Peace without. Peace in this world. Peace for all beings.”)


“Peace comes from within. Do not seek it without.â€

~~~ Buddha
