The strength of a man’s virtue
should not be measured by his special exertions,
but by his habitual acts.
Blaise Pascal

All you need is Love

I would rather be filled with love then filled with hate. 

That is why regardless of how others treat me; regardless of situations that occur in my life; regardless of accidents I make; I am still going to love.

Love others; love life; love myself (well, definitely working on the ladder).

It is one's own burden to care so deeply about the negative aspects; it should not affect others but so often it does.  Allow yourself to release your fears and worries to the heavens and just allow yourself to accept when you can not change something and embrace it when you can!  You are not the other person and can make the conscientious decision to remain positive. It is your choice if you allow one to affect you so choose to make it for the better, either for yourself or anyone else who is willing to accept the help.

Life may not get better but your attitude can! Haha


Many years ago I worked with a girl who had a beautiful tattoo on her inner wrist. Love
When I noticed the tattoo, I asked what it was. After telling me I then asked if she had hate on the other wrist. She responded, "Love is all you need."
I will never forget this for it reached me at a deep level of enlightenment, if you will, that I still remember the feeling of hate just dissipating from the atmosphere. There are so many hateful things that take place in life that there is no need for us to add to it.

"That's why I want you to know

I'm starting with the man in the mirror
I'm asking him to change his ways
And no message could have been any clearer
If you want to make the world a better place
Take a look at yourself, and then make a change" -Michael Jackson

...Be the difference you want to see in the world...

The Beatles - All you need is Love

Knowing others is intelligence;
knowing yourself is true wisdom.
Mastering others is strength;
mastering yourself is true power.
Lao Tzu

Go Max Go Foods

Yesterday I ate a new candy bar that I had not ever eaten before...

The Buccaneer
-chocolately nougut in a rice-milk chocolatey coating
-gluten free
-vegan
-no trans fat
-nothing artificial

The wrapper has a little black flag with a pirate face on it and after the name a dotted line to X marks the spot. Tasted amazing. The texture did remind me of eating Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough flavored Slim Fast bars and I loved it!

I've also had the Mahalo and that was super delicious but much heavier due to the coconut.

Even the website is great!

Playing games

What do you do when your playing someone else's game that only has one rule:
You can't win.
?

You lose, that's what you do; you lose.

So stop playing someone else's game and play your own game that you give a rule where we all win.

One for all
And
All for one!!!

I am The Mandie

No words to accurately describe the way this woman's art makes me feel.

The facts however, the words to describe my feelings are maybe better not blogged.

Please, please watch.

Thank you
