			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>peace</strong></p>
<p><em>“It does not mean to be in a place where there is no noise, trouble or hard work. it means to be in the midst of those things and still be calm in your heart.”</em> - unknown</p>
<p>Creating wellbeing in your life begins with having peace within yourself. Learning to bend so that you don’t break. Living your life healthily, and fluidly is a start. I always picture Keanu Reeves in the movie <em>The</em> <em>Matrix </em>bending back so far that things just fly over, missing you completely, and enabling you to stand back up and carry on.  That may be extreme, but life’s troubles can feel that way. If you learn to just let things fly by, the quicker you will be able to carry on.  Control yourself, that’s all you really can control. Keep your inner peace, keep moving in your chosen direction, and keep your focus on all that is well.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Just a thought&#8230;</p>
<p>With Peace, Gratitude and Love,</p>
<p>Goldi</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em>It’s never too late to be what you might have been. &#8211; George Eliot</em></p>
<p>What is your passion?  Are you happy now?</p>
<p><em>We do not do what we want and yet we are responsible for what we are. &#8211; Jean Paul Sartre</em></p>
<p>LIVE your life. Take control. Live better. Be Happier. Do what you need to do to live the life that you want.</p>
<p>You said you always wanted to be a painter, so paint.  You want to write, then write. Play ball, sail, swim. Do what you long to do.  You may or may not make a living from doing them, but it will sustain your soul now.</p>
<p>Keep the Joy in your life, and live your life with passion.</p>
<p>Just a thought&#8230;</p>
<p>Love, Goldi</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em>“We should give as we would receive, cheerfully, quickly, and without hesitation&#8230;”</em> -<em>Seneca</em></p>
<p>Karma &#8211; what fruits will we reap from this years sowing&#8230;, giving, receiving, like the natural flow of life, has a cycle.   We must do both, and we must remember to always put love, and joy into our giving. When we give, we are not just giving an object, but giving energy from our thoughts and feelings, and attaching them to the gift.  The positive energy given is really more important than the gift. The energy given is the sowing, and the same energy that you’ll reap.</p>
<p>So put all the love, happiness, and joy, you’ve got into every gift!</p>
<p>Here’s hoping Santa brings me a Fisker Karma for Christmas!!!!!</p>
<p>Just a thought&#8230;</p>
<p>Love, Love, Love,  Goldi</p>
<p>Happy Holidays to ALL!!!!!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>The moments of our lives should be filled with joy, love, peace, and serenity. There are times in my life when this doesn’t come easy, and I have to start doing a little mental aerobics&#8230;exercising my mind, to listen within.  Recognizing that events can take you away from positive feelings, it’s important to realize when getting away from a peaceful state, and to learn how to get back to the peace within. </strong></p>
<p><strong>Mentally I have to tell myself to physically stop, get still, and get centered. I calm myself by breathing deeper and slower, and then make a serious effort to change my thoughts. I do this by looking around for something positive to focus on. Like a laughing child, a flower, or a tree blowing in the breeze. One last deep breath, and I’m back to a state of calm and peace. It can take a moment or a few minutes, but when I do it right, I noticed everything around me, seems to stop and do the same. As if before, everything was on auto pilot and this one action seems to wake everything up, so that we can live with joy, love, and peace within. Life is too short to live any other way.</strong></p>

<p><strong>Just a thought&#8230;</strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Several times in my life I’ve worked really hard to make things happen with little or no success. It wasn’t until I let go of the out come, that what I had been working so hard to create, came flowing into my life.  The first few times this happened, my letting go of the outcome, was a little like giving up. That was the beginning of my lesson. I’ve since learned, not to give up, but to surrender to the flow of life.  Believing that every experience is part of our process to becoming the people we are meant to be. If a particular route is not working out, I relax, knowing that a better route will come around. When I’ve relaxed and surrendered to the flow, I reach the place I want to go sooner, and in a peaceful way.  I stay focused on what I&#8217;m grateful for in my life, and I smile knowing that my experiences are all working for my benefit.</strong></p>
