.....So there we were, all in one of our Tuesday morning groups, without any loud laughers in the cafe. Really nice company, a dozen folks, all ages, and kindly intent on learning. Except for one. I wrote too soon, as there was actually one big mouth there.This terribly opinionated (worse than even me),saggy, scraggly old cougar, whom I have disliked for years, ever since she was useless as a teacher in a language course, and tried to tell us, among many other things, with zero knowledge base, that acupuncture was totally BS. Twenty years teaching and married a german, and the language skills are mediocre. But I digress.Today this expert on everything in God's universe, was putting down US graduate schools (she never attended any), saying that EU ones were better, because "they don't make you do coursework there, none at all, just your research". And as always, never allowing anyone else to offer another word in edgewise..Was I ever tempted to make many comments on her tree top ignorance, now and always. A real anger based attack, perhaps even causing me to shake some. But the operative word was equanimity. Bit my tongue, and began talking more with members of the group closer to me, who were used to the show Funny, it was a struggle at first. Changing behaviors does involve a bit of that. But as time went on, and she left the group early for a mammogram (no, I'm not wishing even THAT on even her), all were more relaxed, and I had a sense of real accomplishment. Can't make this stuff up folks. Why can't we better learn all this good stuff at a much earlier age?.

Keep posative always Love Love Love.

As always, the beginning follows the end just as the night follows the morning. Little is consequence aside from the absence of common sense among the masses and a total loss of definable structure within the system held in place only by the image/tradition the people blissfully hold dear. It's not the new car you have, the house, the job, the assets and material wealth you have,.. real wealth of life is what is done with it. Who has been inspired by you, what still stands/exists/lives because of your presence. Life is the defining moment when you (your soul) has the chance to say what is on your agenda, do what is in your own personal nature, create beyond what you ever have experienced into the physical world. There is nothing left that is unreasonable to assume once your limit's threshold has been set adrift. The ramp has been placed before you, the crowd quiets, your heart races as time slows to a stop; you no longer are thinking with your body's physical mind (brain). Now you have arrived to a place of action where time flows in a less direct manner and active ability is more direct as well as more naturally fluid. This state of flow allows for a more advanced method of performing any action with the body. No interrupt or delay in acting on an idea, seeing as there is no obvious thoughts on the surface at this time; instead intention is king. A goal is now a reality if put into action, no hesitation, lack of understanding or worry of outcome. The body becomes a tool to print ideas, a true vessel to inspire progress. At this point a personal singularity has been reached in which the initiate now possesses the ability to complete that which is desired. These states of flow forgetfully hold such virtues with the common man; they who find themselves in such a state only to shake themselves out of it as though it were counter-intuitive to embrace it...

Zindagi Zinda logon ke zine ka naam Han. Nhi shayad nhi jevam mein agar gam na hota tu Zinda rehne ka Mann na hota.
Musafir kaho ya kafir zindagi jene ka aab Mann nhi hota
Kitne ladai hum karte hn roz.mohabat mein tutate hn har roz kitne fariyadi zudte hn har roz.shayad khuda bhagwan vyast rehte Han roz.
Himmat tu bhut thi lene ki pratishod phir kya badala zamane ka harqat karte vahi hum roz.
Log bhi hote gaye bor zindagi zii rahe hn roz.

you are told that you cannot make it because your too fat, too slim, too dark, too fair, too thin. Laugh and say adversity knows not my name. When they tread on your heart and kick you to the curb, get up out of the gutter using these words you have heard. I was told I can't help you, your not famous enough or rich, they never knew I was clever, they thought I was thick. When it comes to your own life you will be all right. Failure is just another way not to do something and takes you closer to your dreams. GET UP and STAND, say I am victorious without your permission. Greatness lays within you just dig deeper and be an overcomer. Today you have 1st place. Keep pushing, keep going, continue up the hill until you are

Sometimes you have to do what you have to do...
That said, I've had enough of this place.
I'm gone!

Besides, I was up at 5am and did a marathon of internet research. I had enough of this place.














APRIL FOOLS !!

I really wonder what schools teach these days. Talk to high school graduates and they have so little knowledge of the past now. I know even when I was in school, only bits of history was taught. And grade after grade the same bits. I started out in a one room school. The teacher tried to teach everything she could because she knew some kids would never go beyond 8th grade, particularly farm boys and girls.
I then went to a 4 room which combined the 4 last one rooms. Again they pushed everything they could because that was how they had been programmed to teach.
High school was boring due to knew it from grade school. Plus I had our library at home and parents taught me too. No book was off limits. Learned to be a prolific reader.
This plague is just one of many that humans went through since civilization began. Many plagues occur in countries that lack basic sanitary living conditions in super dense areas. Problem is now with air travel, too much interaction occurs with those countries. Fly to a foreign country and home before you know you are sick.
People today are too complacent. Go to a buffet. How many wash hands before eating? Then those who do use the same serving utensils everyone who didn't paws. Sit down and eat. I have hand sanitizer I use once at table. I open doors by the most awkward place I can, not the common one. Wear gloves in stores all winter. I view everything as contaminated, even aisles someone just breathed in. So I am well prepared for this new plague.
There is a saying that he who does not learn the history of the past is doomed to repeat it. Most of what occurs in the present has teachings in the past. Parents need to get kids to enjoying history. Then they will know we have been there before. And how to deal with things. Like mom used to say..there is nothing new under the sun. And people need to get over the attitude of not me.

Every human being in the world is born through the same process, but every person's abilities and qualities are different. The seeds of both goodness and badness are present in every human being. The seed which gets a favorable environment will germinate, and if it gets your support, it will one day take the form of a big tree.
Well, there are no bad things in us, whatever is there, that all are useful. As long as things are under our control, that are all good and useful, when that are out of control and dominate us, it become bad and harmful.

Inspiration for Taking charge of my life and age gracefully was given to me by a female blogger. She wrote :

“Instead of trying to find ways to cope with feeling old and alone, you have to figure out how to be happy where you are with what you have and create something new in your life - Whatever Your Circumstances. That is something everyone can do. It doesn’t take money, a life partner, or even health. If you’re unhappy with your life, try little steps to make it better. Life is hard for everyone, but we can’t allow ourselves to focus on the bad. You have to turn your thoughts to something positive. And there is always something positive. Start a ritual with a cup of coffee or tea or juice,” she says. “Clean yourself up, put on some music or your favorite morning show, pour your coffee, sit down and write down five good things about your life. Remember to include: clean water on demand, a roof over your head, living in a free country, and no wars or bombs outside your window. ”She thinks the best thing for folks who feel old and alone is to choose to focus on the good things in their life for five minutes. “Try it every morning for a week,” she says.

All above brought me to the point where I've decided to do something "nice" everyday, something small. I will also take note of 3 different things everyday that I can be grateful for in my life.
