Historical Moment ~ OBAMA '08

How lucky and privileged were we to go to bed last night and wake up this morning with a renewed sense of encouragement, empowerment and hope. Bravo to those American’s who made the choice to stand up for someone and something that they believe in and to have taken action. Every vote matters and serves a purpose and hopefully in the hearts and souls of many today that purpose has been recognized, felt and exuded so that others who may have voted in a different direction will take hold and embrace our vision for change.

Hooray for my families states, Colorado, Florida, New York and North Carolina (and close friends in Virginia). We can be proud that our states made a Democratic statement this election year.

Cheers!

"I'd always fall for guys I wanted to save," the singer says. "For the first time, I fell in love with someone who saved me."

Would somebody like me to inform them about a little place we like to call "GOODWILL"?

“She was always very good at finding a language that the other person would understand, regardless of where they were from, or their socio-economic background. And I think that’s … a major gift that’s bestowed on us.”

My Lama and Me.

This is my simple religion. There is no need for temples; no need for complicated philosophy. Our own brain, our own heart is our temple; the philosophy is kindness.

Living with Integrity means:

Not settling for less than what you know you deserve in your relationships.

Asking for what you want and need from others.

Speaking your truth, even though it might create conflict or tension.

Behaving in ways that are in harmony with your personal values.

Making choices based on what you believe, and not what others believe.
