Absence


Let's all take an absence from media. 
Let us promote Presence and InJoyment of Life 
- in Nature, with Animals, for Friends and Family. 

National Dog Day

Take time to appreciate the love and value 
that dogs bring to our daily lives 


Be
Delivering Outstanding Gracious Service

All Life Matters

To not suffer ourselves, we must seek to end all suffering.
We must always look beyond ourselves. 
And not just humankind. 
Anything that can feel can suffer. 
Suffering comes back to you just like the benefits of a good deed.

of our world. 

Meatless Mondays





Research shows that heavy meat consumption is bad not only for us, but for the planet as well. Animal rights aside, we could all benefit from eating less meat. Even if you already had meat for breakfast today, the rest of your meals can still be meat free! And then no meant next Monday, and the next, and the next. Gradual changes to your diet work best!

Try Something New, Dream Big! Create a Vision Board!

Maybe some of those New Year resolutions just didn’t pan out like you thought they would. Spring is another time of newness and rejuvenation; do some Spring cleaning! In other words, declutter and rid yourself of the things that don’t work in your life and do some soul searching!
The purpose of a Vision Board (aka Dream Board) is to help you focus on your dreams, goals, and aspirations in life. Some say it’s a magical process... 
Start with a poster board or old cardboard – reusing will bless your board with good karma!   All you have to do is take pictures (from magazines, your phone, the internet, etc.) that depict your goals or things you want to obtain. If you can’t find the right pictures, you can also spell it out with words. Just cut out whole words or letters from publications and attach them to your board. You can add backgrounds and more things for inspiration. Pick a theme like sports, your career, education, hobbies or leave it all inclusive like most do.
The board will continue to grow and expand as you accomplish your goals and think of new ones. You can also make a stack of books that inspire you or use your cubicle wall as a Vision Board. There are no wrong ways to create your Vision Board.
My Vision Board started
with hopes of Obama's administration,
my college education, career goals,
and moving to Columbus.
Enjoy!









I added animal rights, more traveling, and  more about work and education. About 7 of these items have come to fruition.




 
Here, I took a digital picture of my Vision Board and began to add digital pix to it through a software program.

God and Nature

"If God could become man, then he could also become stone, plant, animal, and element and perhaps in this way there is redemption in Nature" ~ Novalis


For the Love of Animals

On the Facebook page, a photo album to inspire you to advocate animal rights and to enjoy their simple beauty and nature.

Make Your Work Space Inspiring to You


In the corner of my cubicle I have books on gratitude, diversity, personal success, and images that just make me smile such as animals in cute situations. Also, a bookmark from a friend given in a card for my college graduation. You'll also see Post-Its with affectionate nicknames from my co-workers :-)


The cube is wallpapered in images that allow me to escape and have a pleasant state of mind. These were ripped from old calendars and magazines.


Here is a picture of me doing my Michael Jackson and another bookmark with my personal Mantra's keyword. 


Favorite places and upcoming events to look forward to.


A notepad from a co-worker because I've referred to myself as the Cookie Monster in the office. 



 "Measure your health by your sympathy with morning and spring. If there is no response in you to the awakening of nature --if the prospect of an early morning walk does not banish sleep, if the warble of the first bluebird does not thrill you -- know that the morning and spring of your life are past. Thus may you feel your pulse." ~ Henry David Thoreau
