2013′s make-up – challenges, choices and changes.
What ...
2013′s make-up – challenges, choices and changes.
What is life without challenges? Now, when we really think about it, would we want it any other way? If we had a choice, would we choose a life of day in and day out sameness? Would this help us grow? Are we stimulated to move from point A to B? I believe the excitement of challenges makes us stronger.
What is life without choices? We are built with the power of choice. Yes, faith, luck and other living-our-lives factors play a role in life decisions,however, it is ultimately up to us and our individual choices the path we take. Choices, by default or design, is the power that creates the lives we live.
What is life without changes? The earth moves, seasons change, change is inevitable. Embrace and appreciate the awesomeness of change as the one true constant for living productive lives!
Challenges, Choices and Changes, Oh My!

The growth of Ego!
Him I haven’t seen you since school, you still look good; what are you doing now?
ME I am a writer.
Him OH, what do you write about?
ME I write about love, inspiration, motivation and personal empowerment!
Him Yeah, for women, right?
ME Well, not just for women, but most of my audience is women.
Him Why is that women always want to read about stuff like that?
I think women more than men create experiences that uplift, motivate and inspire because women realize and actively embrace the art of feeding their hearts.
I believe women appreciate the value from purposely bettering our best from a good read, a relaxing message, listening to soothing music and helping others. We realize we are nurturers of others and ourselves. We nurture; it is simply the best part of our feminine psyche.
I believe the ego of a man makes it hard for him to perceive or receive experiences in self-care and self-betterment as tools of strength. I think men believe growth in this fashion puts them in a place of softness and vulnerability. These type behaviors may appear to devalue, comparable to a “real men don’t cry mentality”.
Within every woman, there is a place of strength, beauty and compassion. This feminine place, some may call soft or vulnerable, is inspiration, creativity and a never-ending hunger for growth. I believe the feminine psyche is always in a state of change, growth and love of ourselves and love for others. This place, our inner strength creates our outer finesse.
This woman writer realizes men and women are different. Men and women choose different ways to act, to respond and different paths to growth. It is always a choice how we are our best self!

Health Warning! Do NOT shampoo in the shower
Reblogged from TheReporterandTheGirlMINUSTheSuperMan!:
DO NOT wash your hair in the shower!!
It's so good to finally get a health warning that is useful!!!
IT INVOLVES THE SHAMPOO WHEN IT RUNS DOWN YOUR BODY WHEN YOU SHOWER WITH IT. WARNING TO US ALL!!! Shampoo Warning!
I don't know WHY I didn't figure this out sooner! I use shampoo in the shower! When I wash my hair, the shampoo runs down my whole body, and printed very clearly on the shampoo label this warning; "FOR EXTRA BODY AND VOLUME."
Now, I know too and now I have another reason to like Dawn...

An Out-of-this World Absolute Best Thanks Giving Feast!!!!!!
An Out-of-this world absolute best
Thanks Giving Feast!
Lightly blend (belief, dedication, duty, grace, happiness, integrity, possibility, principles, strength, vision, and well-being) in the big bowl of life.
Next, stir in the following (I Am for Values, I want to enhance vision, I believe to voice dedication, I do to the possibilities and I will to accomplishing goals). Remember, larger portions will greatly enhance the overall flavor.
Mix the above well with your oversized care spoon.
Now, set the table with your best china. “My best china?” Yes, use your best china, wear your favorite fragrance and show off that expensive outfit that looks good on you. Create your Some Day Today!
Be sure to put out side dishes of hope, joy, love and peace. You may want to add other sides such as confidence, empathy, and forgiveness to accompany your Thanks Giving Feast.
Now, here’s the thing, this recipe is ageless. It has been handed down from generation to generation. But, you know how we do, we experiment adding more of this and less of that; just remember to use all ingredients listed; otherwise flavor each dish how you like.
Serve generous portions knowing there is always enough for seconds and thirds. If by chance, you have leftovers, know they will last your lifetime if properly stored in warm, loving and gracious lined containers.
Always serve this meal with a tall refreshing prayer. Always!
We know a special Feast must finish with a one of a kind heart-warming dessert. Pick up your Humble Pie at any Angels Bakery (located everywhere). Slice the humble pie into huge slices, better yet; serve large chunks sprinkled with love that will quench any sweet tooth for eternity.
The Thanksgiving Feast for a lifetime of Thanks Giving!

It’s Gift Giving Season!!!
10 gifts that won’t...
10 gifts that won’t strain your budget or your spirit…
Give the Gift of L istening …
Listen from the heart. Do not interrupt. Do not daydream. Do not plan your response. Listen to “get the message”.
Give the Gift of Affection …
Pour your heart into even the smallest gesture. It is not the size or cost. More often, the effort matters most.
Give the Gift of Laughter …
Have you laughed with someone you care about today? How about a roaring belly laugh to connect, engage and relax?
Give the Gift of Thanks …
A simple “Thanks” carries a lot of weight. Let people know you appreciate them, especially the major players in your life. Never take their kindness, love or being-there for granted.
Give the Gift of A Compliment …
A sincere “That color is great on you,” or “You did a fantastic job”can make someone sparkle.
Give the Gift of An Act of Kindness …
Go a little further to do something special for someone. Why? It will make you feel good. It is sure to brighten another’s day.
Give the Gift of Attention …
Observe those you care about. Indifference is cold. Indifference is lonley. Indifference hurts.
Give the Gift of Sharing …
You are a storehouse. You are filled with resources, insights, ideas and thoughts. Care enough to share. Help someone grow.
Give the Gift of Patience …
Be patient with others. Be patient with yourself allowing it spill over to everyone you meet.
Give the Gift of Your Beautiful Smile …
Right now smile. It will lift your spirit. People will return the smile. There is much to smile about.
