Finding your way...



"The indispensable first step to getting the things you want out of life is this: decide what you want."


-- Ben Stein


"You have to decide what your highest priorities are and have the courage -- pleasantly, smilingly, nonapologetically -- to say 'no' to other things. And the way you do that is by having a bigger 'yes' burning inside."


-- Stephen Covey


Are you too juggling many requests.. especially as the holidays approach? Do you hear

your voice? It's important to take sometime out and listen.. listen to what your heart tells you, find

the balance within and enjoy the Holidays to come.

Our Gifts.. to others


Commitments to serve


“Our deepest need is for the joy that comes with …knowing we are of genuine use to others.”


-- Eknath Easwaran


I'm finding with the way the economy is presently there are a lot of people wondering how to do just that..

It's a frustrating time for many. I hope I can encourage those of you who may know of others struggles

to recognize their need and appreciate them.

Harmony


The cycles of nature occur within and around us. To act wisely is to harmonize with

these cycles.


How might you create greater harmony in your life?

Light

“Everything is made of light; everything is alive. The Great Mystery of life has little to do with intelligence. The universe is not an intellectual process. The intellect is helpful; but our hearts are the wiser part of ourselves.”


-- Mellen-Thomas Benedict


“If you open your heart, love opens your mind.”


-- Charles John Quarto



When I'm photographing outside I always marvel at how quickly the image changes. It's like watch music being played.


Enjoy

Change...



“Change. It has the power to uplift, to heal, to stimulate, surprise, open new doors, bring fresh experience and create excitement in life. Certainly it is worth the risk.”


-- Leo Buscaglia


I hope you all take the opportunity to find a positive change to make in your lives this week.
