Secrets to tell?

"Secrets"

Jennifer Piatt

The whispers of the trees
They lean toward the wind
Tell the secrets that I wish to keep
Hoping to pass along the message
I wither and hide from it all
Inside of you, I am safe
Daring young child
Spitting yellow from tongue
Grab the words as they flow from my pen.
Grab my hand and we’ll ride along
A look in the mirror
Reminds me of who I really am
Tainted, sweet fool
With flowers from ear to ear

I've come to believe that each of us has a personal calling that's as unique as a fingerprint - and that the best way to succeed is to discover what you love and then find a way to offer it to others in the form of service, working hard, and also allowing the energy of the universe to lead you.

How do you relax?

I have a hard time relaxing... I'm a fairly stressed out person :) Lately it seems that everyone around me is having the same problem... sometimes I think that I have forgotten how to relax!

So here's the first challenge... scrapbook a page about how you relax *this way if you ever forget you can open your album and remember ;)

....quotes....

If a man insisted always on being serious, and never allowed himself a bit of fun and relaxation, he would go mad or become unstable without knowing it.
-Herodotus

Every now and then go away and have a little relaxation. To remain constantly at work will diminish your judgment. Go some distance away, because work will be in perspective and a lack of harmony is more readily seen.
-Leonardo DaVinci

The time to relax is -- when you don't have time for it.
-Sidney J. Harris
