Old Shows

A great and fun thing to do late at night is to watch a show you did many years ago, a classic.  You can find many movies but I am talking about a normal television show.  You can get many of them on dvd or on digital download now.  The beauty of it is NO COMMERCIAL, that is one of the reasons I don't watch television now.  We recently began watching old episodes of Seinfeld and have been laughing at all the wonderful characters in this sitcom.  Maybe Seinfeld isn't your bag but there are plenty of wonderful entertaining shows out there.  Pick something and watch a show here or there, without the commercials the shows are a lot shorter and easier to watch.  Now I am going to watch Kramer slide into Jerry's apartment.

A Friend's Love

A Friend’s Love

The rain drops

Plop, plop, plop

The fire sizzles and hisses

With each drop of rain

The wind blows

Breathing life into the fire

My foot stamps frantically

Trying to put it out

Suddenly a friend

Touches my shoulder

And stands in the fire

By my side, smiling

No longer is there need

To stamp out the fire

Its life energy is a teacher

And, I, the student

Walk through the fire

Whether in darkness

Or brilliance

Be in awe of the flame

The smoke may thicken

My destination be obscured

If I am too afraid

I know I can reach for my friend’s hand

Exiting the fire

Relief washes my body

Until I see all around me

Infinite fires – big and small

With a smile

And an open heart

I look for my dear friend

Only to see now he walks through fire

The tides have turned

The moon is new

The leaves have fallen

The season has changed

With love and compassion

I enter the fire

And touch my dear friend’s shoulder

It is my turn, to gently hold space

--Janelle Alex

Just Lie Down - Get Grounded

We all need to feel grounded and centred. We all too easily can lose our balance. It is not possible to constantly stay perfectly balanced, but here is a simple way to regain some of your balance. Find five minutes in your schedule (or one or two if that is all you can spare) and lie flat on your back with your arms at your sides. And, just breathe ... in and out...take your time with each breath. Doing this throughout your day can have amazing changes upon your body and within your soul.

Great Time of Year for Singing

One of the best things about the holiday season is the singing.  Christmas carols are a great way that people come together and sing.  However if you don't celebrate Christmas that doesn't mean you have to shy away from enjoying the singing during this time of year.  Find songs that fit your lifestyle and let sing them out loud.  Go out and go caroling it is a great way for friends to get together and spread joy and peace in your neighborhood.
