I know he is not popular, but technically he is correct. The Constitution does not specifically state that women have rightsi It is just that it no longer makes a difference. The Constitution does not say that slaves are free either. Yet the idea of slavery is absurd in our country today. (Yet it exists, in this country still, in sexual slavery of both male and females, hidden just under the surface) We have gone way past Scalia’s point now,…
Happy New Year to all my friends and readers and everyone else! ?1-1-11 must be an enchanted day!! It is fun just to write that date and watch all those “1 s” appear as little exclamation points. I wore my new furry boots from Nobel Neilsen in Middleburg Virginia, on New Years Eve, (cause I actually just went out to baby sit some of my grandchildren) New Year’s Eve is NOT a good night to party just for the sake…
The people I coach often have trouble ?with the idea of stepping away from what their friends or family think they should do. Often the issue is one of holding a different world view, but sometimes it is just doing a different job, being married or divorced, moving to a new town or a new country. ?Whatever you do be true to yourself and to your principles. This article is so important that I decided to give my friends and…
I was told about an article on CNN http://www.cnn.com/2010/HEALTH/12/16/ep.vbac.birth.at.home/index.html about a woman who refused to have a 4th C-section demanded by her doctor. ?Instead she decided to have her baby at home. ?She did so successfulyAnswer to a CNN column about a woman who had a VBA3C at home. Wonderful article. Here is my answer: It surprises me how many comments there are criticizing this intelligent woman for making a choice for herself and her baby. Especially those who? belittle…
My favorite holiday is Thanksgiving.? No presents to worry about, and much less expense and decorating than Christmas makes this a more calm holiday. Our family is close enough to really enjoy each other. No one has to fly to be here for the day. That is a huge plus this year. Thanksgiving is a time to be grateful. We will have four generations at this party. And this year my youngest son and his wife are hosting all the…
Something needs to be said about the TSA. This whole body scan thing has gone completely out of control. For years now I have been removing my shoes, taking out my laptop, removing my jewelry and metal headband, I take off my jacket and meekly go through being scanned by (the old fashioned) screening that we all must walk through, but now they have gone too far.? I will not be X-rayed needlessly. And I resent the fact that anyone…
1. Be a student of life. Learn something new every day. The day you stop learning is the day you begin to become obsolete. Never stop learning. 2. None of us is Perfect. The sooner you know this in your heart, the sooner you can start being excellent. Begin every morning fresh and ready for whatever challenges await you. Try harder than you did the day before. Never give up. You can achieve that which seemed impossible. 3. Play the hand…
The first suggestion from me would be educating people about how to take care of their own health. The whole MEDICAL INDUSTRIAL complex is out to make money for themselves. They have NO desire to keep people well. That would be bad for business (and I am all for legitimate business, but NOT for making money by keeping people from being healthy.) Our system has almost nothing to do with health. It waits for people to be ill before even…
I stole the above quote from Equilibrium http://www.equilibrium-clinic.com/ because I believe it is so important. ?So many people are unwell for so many diverse reasons. Do you know why you are sick, if you are suffering from some condition? ?Have you thought about what that means? There is a fear in people’s minds that if someone suggests that they are ill by choice that it is “blaming” the victim. ?Do you feel that way? ?Or do you have some small…
http://www.hersfoundation.com/anatomy/index.html I hope every woman will watch this wonderful video. It may save your uterus and or ovaries.? We need our organs.? Do not let a physician tell you that you do not need them. I spent years and years looking for a doctor who would understand my desire to keep my body intact. My ovarian cyst started almost 15 years ago. At first it was small and the radiologist who gave me a sonogram to see how big it…
Are you scared to death about your finances? Have you wondered if you can hang on until things get better? Rejoice! It is going to be OK. Negative thinking can upset your chances of overcoming fear and financial woes. So much of success depends on your belief in a loving Universe. One thing about the current economic state of the country during the last two years is that it seems to be almost Universal. In a way that is almost…
What are you expecting from the Government bailout program? Are you expecting money deposited in your bank by some mythical program? There is only one person who can make your bank account grow fast and it is you.? You are so powerful, but when you start to believe the media about how tough times are you lose hope.? You let fear and negative thinking trip you up and keep you from moving forward into a wonderful world awaiting you. You…
Do you sometimes feel that things will just never work out for you? Do you worry that you are reaching an age where no more good things will happen? And whose fault do you think that is? It is the fault of your own attitude. Where did that attitude come from?? Is there truth in it? Or are you just saying and feeling and believing something that you heard in childhood? Have you ever thought about just where your ideas…
I’ve started a new reoccurring series on my blog focusing on healthy lifestyle tips.? Check back for alternative ways to eat healthier, stay fit and live a good, full life. First up- coconut oil. My eating has become healthier in the second half of my life as more is learned about what makes our bodies work. Some of these foods were considered bad for us or fattening in the past. For instance, many people used to avoid eggs, but free…
Happiness starts out as an image. Just like everything else it is controlled by the Law of Attraction. It is up to each of us to make our own happiness. It is a lot like love, it cannot be forced, but it can sneak up on you. First you can simply move your lips into the shape of a smile. You will find that just doing that makes you feel better. If you want to laugh, I suggest watching funny…
