It's that time of the year when leaves fall with all their pretty colors. We get out the hats, scarves and gloves, if we didn’t lose them from last year. My son never seems to keep a pair gloves or hats around for the whole season.
It’s also that time of year we sit down with family or friends with good food, warm drinks and laughter.
I’ve learned over the years, or should I say I get my cue from the way nature works. Keep it simple...Simplicity is a great word to have in your vocabulary.
You can have the best time with family and friends by not complicating things with too much fuss.
Remember the reason for getting together…
To Love.
To be grateful.
To be kind and forgiving.
Ok and maybe the occasional what did I just eat. Keep it simple this year and your body and soul will thank you.
They might cry and moan, but it's that time of year again. It's time to get up earlier, and wake those sleeping, grumpy children. It's time to pack lunches and backpacks...and let's not forget homework.
Because if your children have homework you have homework too!
Moms and Dads while preparing your children for school it's important to make time for your soul and mind. It's difficult to nourish others if we don't take care of ourselves. It's very easy to get frazzled while everyone in the household is adjusting to the back to school schedule.
What works best for me is getting up early before anyone else is moving in the house.(5am-5:30am). This is time for me. As soon as my feet hit floor I say thank you. I say a prayer/mediate and give to thanks to a new day. I read positive quotes to feed my mind and soul.
After that I put on a pot of coffee. While that's brewing I take some bread and nuts to feed the birds and squirrels. All kinds of birds appear Robins, Cardinals, the occasional Blue Jay and many sparrows. I love to watch the animals eat while I sip my coffee before the sun appears.
It's a beautiful time of day.
Now I'm ready to start my day. Got to drop my son off and catch the early morning train. May you find your peace.
No more staring at the clock waiting for the work week to be over. No more squeezing into the subway car like sardines, dreaming of your nice comfy couch. It's Friday, and the long Fourth of July weekend awaits. The holiday offers an excuse to gorge on hot dogs, steak, corn, seafood, cake and anything else that fits in our mouths. Time to relax in the back yard with a nice cold drink. But what do you do when you hear that little voice say, "MOM!! DAD!! I made a mess." The little one comes running to you with hands full of dirt, juice, food and that slimy stuff that only kids can find. What are you going to clean it with? How about one of our soaps.
