Mondays
Good Morning Monday. The start of a new week, however remember this. Opinions are just that, opinions. They are not to judge who is right or wrong. Difference in opinions is what makes us individuals with minds.
Closer Than You Know.
You are already far closer than you know to the life that you want to be living,to the happiness that can be yours.
Only habits of thought stand between you and the person you long to be or the life you long to create.
Any changes you desire are almost certainly a matter of degree only. They might include :
To be kinder to yourself and other people.
To ''mind'' less if others criticize you.
To worry less and laugh more.
To accept as well as give encouragement and appreciation.
To trust your capacity to be creative.
To forgive yourself as well as others for past failings and hurts.
To be able to enjoy your success and not talk them down.
To feel that you have time in your life.
To be able to say what you mean.
To stand up for what you care about.To know what matters.
To behave in ways that express your highest values.
To trust -and love-YOURSELF.

Seeds of Happiness
Seeds of Happiness
Everything is material for the seed of happiness, if you look into it with inquisitiveness and curiosity. The future is completely open, and we are writing it moment to moment. There always is the potential to create an environment of blame -- or one that is conducive to loving-kindness

Craft of the Day
This turkey centerpiece was made from three linen napkins -- two for the fan of tail feathers and one for the head and breast (which is stiffened with aluminum foil). The discernible beak results from the white napkin's red border.
Fancy or otherwise, napkins did not appear in Europe until the seventeenth century; in the Middle Ages, a long cloth known in French as a longiere was attached to the side of the tablecloth for communal use.
Turkey How-To
1. Fold a napkin in half diagonally, and press; press all folds as you go. Open napkin. Fold in the top two sides to meet at center crease. To make the turkey's breast and head, shape a folded piece of aluminum foil into a triangle; fit it into napkin as shown. The height of the foil triangle should allow for a bend at the bottom to keep napkin upright (about 3/4 length of napkin measured diagonally between opposite corners). This elegantly simple fold looks appropriate at either an informal meal or a formal one.
