very special Person

A  L  O  H  A !

“ Perhaps

 the most "spiritual" thing 

any of us can do

 is simply to look 

 through our own eyes,

 see with eyes of wholeness, 

and act 

with integrity 

and kindness. ”

  Jon Kabat-Zinn

 

" Until you have formed the habit

 of looking for the good 

instead of the bad 

there is in others, 

you will be neither successful 

nor happy.  "

Napolean Hill

 “ Looking back
 you realize
 that a very special person
 passed briefly
 through your life-

 - and it was you.
It is not too late
 to find that person
 again. ”

 Robert Brault

What do

Y O U

elicit from

OTHERS

?

At the end

of your 

day

Have you

added

to the World's

Peace

or discord

? 

Is the sum

total

of YOUr

interactions

with OTHERs

on the 

Positive

or Negative

side?

Smiles shared,

eye contact,

patience,

small kindnesses

maintain

the 

Balance of the world.

" Better do a good deed near at home

 than go far away to burn incense. "

Thank YOU

We Play Checkers!

A  L  O  H  A !

My (Blog Invisible) husband

 said today,

 regarding moving off of, 

and selling our boat:

" We will retire from

 life-as-chess game,

 and play checkers! 

 We are simplifying 

and down-sizing 

in order to be as happy

 and carefree as possible

 for as long as possible 

on what we have.  "

 Happily,

 even as inevitability

 rushes headlong 

in our direction,

 it brings with it 

promises

 too.

" To be happy 

you must be your own

 sunshine. "

Charles Edward Jerningham

   " The best is yet to be." 

 I feel that  to be true.

And such is my wish

for You

& for Me.

Thanks for visiting!

“You will not be punished 

for your anger, 

you will be punished 

by 

your anger.” 

Buddha 

 " Whatever you do 
unto the least of my brothers,
 you do it unto me.”

Jesus










 

“If you have men who will exclude
 any of God's creatures
from the shelter of compassion and pity,
you will have men
 who will deal likewise
with their fellow men.”

Francis of Assisi

 “ Whatever words 
we utter 
should be chosen
 with care 
for people 
will hear them 
and be influenced
 by them 
for good
 or ill. ”

I'm not a saint.

Saints

are not

saints-

-Not ALL

the time!

Just do

the best You can

right now.

Unrealistic expectations

are a game 

the ego plays

with itself;

But we lose.

Try less hard!

Have more fun!

God delights

in his creation-

How could 

WE

do any

less?

THANKS for YOU

Maintain Your Computer

& Your Soul / Alter Ego

A  L  O  H  A !

“  If we maintain 

obsolete values and beliefs,

 a fragmented consciousness 

and self-centered spirit, 

we will continue to hold onto

 outdated goals and behaviors. ”

 

Dalai Lama quotes

" Update

your operating

system." 

Computer Tip

" Computers 

are like Old Testament gods; 

lots of rules 

and no mercy. "

JOSEPH CAMPBELL

" Your computer is a backup of your soul, 

a multi-layered, menu-driven 

representation of who you are,

 who you care about, 

and how you sin. "

 

MICHAEL MARSHALL

" One day 

ladies will take their computers

 for walks in the park 

and tell each other,

said such a funny thing 

this morning."

" One of the best things

 to come out of 

the home computer revolution 

could be the general

of how severely limited 

logic 

really is. "

They can only

A dear blog friend

has e-mailed me to say

that the new Blogger format

does not allow her

to comment

at this blog

any longer.

  Quel Disaster! 

I advised her to try installing

and using Google's

CHROME  Web Browser,

or FireFox

which I use daily.

 Google has been offering Chrome

at the Google home/search page,

and I have included a link

to FireFox below.

Some browsers are better

for some things, 
I've noticed.

 PC users,
did you notice some
Window's Downloads
earlier this week?






After they were auto-installed,
I ran Glary Utilities Free
to check for registry errors
and found ELEVEN!
Glary fixed them
with a button-push.






Inevitably, 
registry errors,

file fragments,

cookies,

and other debris 

collect on your hard drive.

and they DO

 slow you down!

 Sure you download updates

to your anti-virus / malware,

programs, and run scans 

almost daily. (Right?)

Well, meet my friend

 GLARY.

"One Click Maintenance"

This is a free utility for personal use.

If you purchase the "Pro" version

(as I eventually did)

there are even more tools

to optimize, and safeguard

your computer.

But there is NO pressure to buy-

[ And this was an unsolicited

and unpaid recommendation.]

I happily 

used GLARY Free for YEARS

and just wanted my friends

to know about it.

You can download it

via the link below.

Think you'll try it?

THANK YOU for visiting!

Within and Without

A  L  O  H  A !

Caution: Clicking Pictures may cause disorientation & dreaming

Some, happy 

 walk together

 in life's sunny 

 and pleasant

 places.

Some languish

 & anguish

alone.

Consider these 

little princes

God gives us flowers daily.

Sometimes barely noticed-

though they ever glow

Some are high-

beyond grasping,

but admirable

just the same

Even underfoot, 

they radiate beauty

to the habitue of 

noticing-

Wonders 

are commonplace

Within & without

 dance-

- and trade places

If you will stop doing

long enough

to LOOK

Thank YOU

for looking

over here!

Your glance,

you thoughts,

enlighten

my world

                    Warmly, cloudia
