What Do We Have But Ourself!

Knowing who you are is incredible... Creating your world Day by Day is knowing you are part of the now not the past.  What do you have to offer the world on a daily basis?  What can you say, do, or illustrate to the world to help change the way we react to our daily life? How can you get the courage to make a difference?  How can you feel what is inside versus what is going on in your head????  Mediation... Meditation... Meditation    Take the challenge... make the difference!

While taking an early morning walk, I took some time to notice the beauty that was all around me.  The smell of the fresh air, the hint of a flower drifting on the breeze, neighbors leaving their homes on their way to start a new day.  A gentleman sweeping the front of his driveway with with a smile on his face taking pride in a job well done.  As we exchanged pleasantries he ended the conversation with " It's a Great Day to Be Alive".  I truly agree.  I hope if you are reading this blog that you find a moment to be in the present and take in the blessings that are right in front of you.
Enjoy your day!!   Namaste

Knowing that being Grateful is the Only way to GO!

As I looked around at my back yard this morning... listening to the birds chirp and smelling the fresh morning air, I knew being grateful is the only way to go!  Taking the time to digest these beautiful surroundings and peace that nature offers is a wonderful gift.  So next time your feeling weighed down by what life throws at you.  Step back, look around and choose to be open and notice what beauty is available to you right then and there.  You will be amazed at how uplifting and satisfying a simple step back can be.   Namaste

What draws us to the present

Have you ever wondered how we can stay in the present moment? What small moment draws us to be engaged in the present moment? Do we take the time to acknowledge gratitude for the present moment? Looking at a simple leaf and realizing how spectacular the process of growth really is. Today I am going to pay extra attention to the present and appreciate the simplicity of this day.

Blogging in the classroom

I have been doing allot of research on blogging in the classroom. My thoughts on this subject is why is it taking so long for educators to get on board? We have the opportunity to get our students to write more, use organizational skills, and should I mention use critical thinking. What a deal!
