Hi Cheryl,

Wow, he is gorgeous - one of the orioles, though I will have to look up which one he is.  Thanks so much!  We have so many hummingbirds this year, that I fell delighted every single day.  They come right to my window and sliding glass door to  fetch their nectar - it's so cool to watch, and watch and watch - lol.

I do feel loved so very much and really feel sad when I can't make it here to answer everyone immediately.  Thank you for being such a wonderful friend.  I will see if I can find your beautiful orange bird and tell you what he is.  (In bird stuff - it has to be a he as the females are always quite dull when compared to the vibrant males.

Hugs and blessings, Cheryl

Hello, dear Pauline!

You are never too late here - never.  And, ALWAYS welcome.  Thank you for your prayers.  i have made a choice to just carry on and am actually enjoying it all.  I work part time - about 22 to 25 hours a week only and then help my husband in the yard, watch the birds frolic about, and work in my gardens.  It's temporary until I find full time employment, but I am loving it while it lasts.

I too dream of meeting you in person some day.  I am so anxious to catch up with Beth, and am still so excited and enchanted that the two of you actually found a few minutes to meet.

Blessings, my dear far away friend.  We are closer than you think!

Hugs

Judy

Hi Judy,

I am working on the principle that it is better late than never. I just came across the email that leads to this page and I sure am glad I popped by.

Your article is inspiring to say the least and yes simple and to the point. I know that door has all ready opened for your somewhere. I look forward to the moment when you walk through it.

I agree we have two choices in situations like this. I love your attitude because it is easier to sink into self pity and despair. "I can't" is easier than "I can" which is why so many people throw up their hands.

You see the opportunity!

I have a friend who was told her job would end in June. When we talked there was no despair only excitement. I didn`t have to sympathize with her she was too busy planning out her summer, the first one she would have off for years.

I know someone as talented as you will soon find that open doorway.

Thanks for the inspiration.

Much Love


Nick

Hello Nick,

Woww! I feel excited having you in the forum after a long while although you have been keeping me abreast with your scintilating and inspiring "Beautiful Summer Morning Newsletter"

Thanks for joining us in Judy's latest update of our AOV achieve and I hope you are doing great all round!

Here's something motivating from the 26th May 2009 issue of Nick's BSM Newsletter for all our friends:

Think New Thoughts
  

We cannot change our lives if we cannot tell new stories about ourselves. Change comes when we begin to tell a new story about ourselves to ourselves. Only when we have begun to learn our new story can we tell that story to others, for by then others begin to see our new story.

We can all improve upon our stories.

We all have growth and love to aspire too.

We all have opportunities to develop into our full potential.

Telling a new story sometimes requires incredible bravery, courage and strength.

The recovering alcoholic  who must ,each morning, retell his story anew, one day at a time.

The broken hearted who must rebuild his story with some one new.

When we see someone struggling to tell a new story we should offer our compassion, understanding and support.

The way you tell your story will also give courage and hope to someone who does not have power over their story. They can see change is possible, possibly for them.

Don't hide your story.

Tell your story out loud to the world.

Much Love
Nick


This is along the walk Felix and I walk. Always inspiring.
