Day 3-13 through 3-15

Day 3 - 9 through 3-12

Her plastic bag had ripped - the wind was blowing - felt natural and good.Wednesday there were some elderly folks coming into my…See More

Day 3 - 5 through Day 3 - 8

I constantly focus on sincerity when interacting with others - as this is creating peace in my world as well. But I feel I must build on it. It was my co workers birthday. She usually works until close on Fridays - I usually get out at 6 and take a yoga class.I volunteered to switch with her so she could enjoy dinner with family and friends.Saturday was day 3…See More

"This is a stunningly 'simple' yet profound give . . . in my opinion you can give this every day forever, and it will be valuable each time you give it. I am sure the universe will respond in kind. Wishing you light in your darkness. ~peace…"

Day 2 - 26 through 2 - 28

Definitely let the weekend get away from me - but here I sit sipping tea with a free moment to update.Friday was day 2 - 26. I have a friend who just adopted the MOST adorable teenage dog from a local shelter. O.k. - actually she adopted him from a Home Depot where they were displaying the shelter pups that day. Anyway - driving past the local bakery and saw they had a new addition - healthy home baked treats for your pets! 2 carob covered ginger "bon bon's" were picked up and delivered to my…See More
