Life seems to create myths that become a part of the general thought pattern.
For example: there is not enough to go around. Fear of not having enough drives us to want to get more, better and bigger things. What we neeed to do is share more.
Another one is if you empower someone else you give your power away.
We have been programed to believe that material power guarantees happiness. What if we could understand what a lot of wise people have told us: "Inner power is always stronger than material power".
I think that finding people who believe in you and help build self-esteem is important to creating a happy life. It is good to know what your dreams and goals are in life. Within us there is a creative urge that longs to be expressed.
Acts of kindness and compassion and love is possible when "we love our neighbor as ourselves".
It is hard to believe that Matthew will be going to preschool and Jasmine in Kindy. Ben will be fineshing grade 4 this year and Morgan grade 1. They are all growing up so fast.
I feel like I am back to normal and that dad still is fighting his miserable cold but getting a bit better every day. Health is so important to us all. Did my full walk yesterday, the first part alone and the second with Gundy.
I am looking forward to going out to lunch with Jane to a friends house, should be fun.
How fast time flys and then they are all grown up.

Hey, is that Stephen? He almost looks the same again now. Yes, I think one of the important things to teach children is to question. Which is not the same thing as disrespect, there seems to be a lot more of that going around these days.Dad says you and him have flip flopped again. As long as there is always one of you to be able to plug in the kettle and make some toast I guess you will get through it eventually. Sandra
Yes mom is not going out with her friends - her neck is sore.
As I told her - like you said - as long as one of us are relatively upright we are in good shape.
Stephen was a healthy looking little guy!
Is that a picture of Stephen???
Fingers crossed your both feeling better soon. Try and get some sunshine on your skin to get some natural vitamin D.
