New Year, New Leaf, New Chapter

Happy, Healthy 2010!  Each new year's eve we make resolutions.  As we turn over the page in our new calendars, we try to turn over a new leaf.  We desperately try to exercise more/eat less junk food/keep our homes clean/hang up all our clothes/do the laundry at least once a week......the list goes on and on.  At the same time, we also start another chapter in our lives.

What were your resolutions?  Have you been successful with them?  Tomorrow, we start the second month of the year - have you given up on any of your resolutions?  If so, why?

For this new chapter in your life to be one of the best or most memorable, why not write down your goals in a notebook or diary?  Give these goals life - bring them out and put them in ink, say them out loud - let the universe know what you desire and start the drum roll, start making them a reality.  Take baby steps, one tiny step at a time to get to your destination!  Like they say, Rome wasn't built in a day!

Last year was a life changing year for me.  It's the year I graduated from the Institute of Integrative Nutrition.  The school had a major impact on me.  Apart from dancing, exercising and chanting "Om" with 1,500 other students at Avery Fisher Hall, I made wonderful friends and learned from excellent teachers - who are prominent in the health field. I also became a certified laughter yoga leader!  Ho! Ho! Ha! Ha! Ha!

I welcome 2010, your friendship and all that the universe sends our way.

Wishing you joy and peace.

People Come into Your Life for a Reason

Have you ever felt that you have met the person standing across from you before? Do you run into the same person twice in a day? Ever thought of someone and immediately hear from them or bump into them? Are you glad you made a new friend? Did an Angel help you today? Here's a popular poem for you to enjoy as you welcome this new season in your life: P eople come into your life for a reason, a season or a lifetime. When you figure out which one it is, you will know what to do for each person. When someone is in your life for a REASON , it is usually to meet a need you have expressed. They have come to assist you through a difficulty; to provide you with guidance and support; to aid you physically, emotionally or spiritually. They may seem like a godsend, and they are. They are there for the reason you need them to be. Then, without any wrongdoing on your part or at an inconvenient time, this person will say or do something to bring the relationship to an end....

Did You Hit Delete?

Have you ever hit delete in error? We always get a prompt – are you sure you want to delete? Or “Proceed to delete?” “Are you sure you want to permanently delete this file?” You get a second chance. Will we be given a second chance before we are “Deleted?” All this reflection started out when to my utmost horror and astonishment I discovered that the number of photographs in my “Album” on my Samsung phone had changed from 3,000 to 3!  WTH! I took a deep breath and said, surely, there must be a mistake.” Quickly went through each album on my phone – and as my heart thumped, the tears came trickling out – oh dear! All the photos were gone!  Sad. So Sad. Very Sad. There went pictures from my daughter’s wedding – I consoled myself with the fact there were professional ones from the photographer; and in a way, it was a blessing that I got rid of the clutter.  As the day transpired, I began to think of other photos that were delete...
