Namaste Friends, I am so glad we live in a place that has four full seasons. It creates opportunity to switch up the lifestyle patterns and habits we easily fall into.

“There is only one thing that makes a dream impossible to achieve: the fear of failure.” The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho Namaste Friends, I am constantly amazed at how time slips by.

“When the winds of change blow…some people build walls and others build windmills”-Chinese Proverb Namaste Friends, Its spring and Mother Earth is muddy, wet, moist, blossoming, supple, and juicy right now.

Namaste Friends, Dissolution: We have all seen images of the destruction caused by our quaking Mother Earth on the densely populated island of Japan; and it breaks our hearts to see others who are helpless and in need.
