See you there!

Since April 9, when I moved this blog over to a new one on the Support4Change website, I’ve added eleven new posts. If you are still subscribed to this blog, rather than the new one, I don’t want you to miss these posts that range from the effect of perfectionism on relationships (April 13) to a challenge of speaking only from love for twenty-four hours (May 5).

PLUS, you’ll find three videos just for the fun of it.

Remember, when you click on the following titles, you will be going to the new blog format, where I highly recommend you bookmark the journal homepage or subscribe to that RSS feed rather than this one. Then you’ll be able to read all the great posts I am putting online three or more times a week (at least at the current rate).

To see what I mean, read the following and you’ll learn how you can enrich your life and enrich your relationships, which is the new motto of the new blog.

ELEVEN NEW POSTS IN CHRONOLOGICAL ORDER:

Notice how perfectionism can have a very negative effect on relationships.

2. How Does Your Philosophy of Life Affect Your Relationships?
Discover how your philosophy of life has an impact on your relationships.

3. Who is in Your Tribe?
The strength of our identity with any group determines the extend to which we feel comfortable with, or separate from, others outside that group, or “tribe.”

4. Ask Questions, Make a Difference
When people are concerned, curious, courageous, and caring, they can make a difference in the world by asking themselves questions.

5. Thinking Deeply Strengthens Relationships Better Than Shared Wine

6. Learning Video Production with Chinese New Year Photos — VIDEO

7. Checking Progress of New Hoover Dam Bridge — VIDEO
Since there isn’t time to write a new post, here is another of my videos that I’m learning to do. If you’ve ever been to Hoover Dam and stuck in a traffic jam, you will be glad to know this bridge bypassing the dam is being completed.

8. I’m Down to Six Marbles
Discover a visual way to remind yourself that life is short and needs to be enjoyed. Buy some marbles.

11. Can You Speak Only Love for 24 Hours?

See you there!

One week ago I started my blog with “ARRRGGUH!” If you read it, you will know my reaction was because the blog was not saving when I saved. Just got a little message that said somethng to the effect of “My Bad. Sorry.”

It happened again today after I finished a blog! There just wasn’t time to go back and do it again. Consequently, here I am at the end of the day ready to climb into bed and I am reminded of my promise (at least for now) to make my “practice” to write an entry five days a week.

So here I am writing that there’s nothing here for you to read.

I would end this with “ARRRGGUH!” again except that I have just finished watching two hours of “The Buddha,” a beautifully done program on PBS of the Buddha’s life, and was reminded that all things change. Even software that doesn’t work one day will (maybe) work the next.

So I’ve chosen as illustration a flower on which I just might meditate tonight as I fall asleep to accept this problem and look forward to starting over tomorrow.

May all your computer glitches be minor.
