THE Secret for Anyone Who Wants to Improve their Looks!

B'SD


16 Tevet 5772




I recently posted this cartoon to one of my Facebook pages


I then commented, "Not that any sane person needs to know what would happen if a speeding train going 80 Gazillion MPH ran into a semi heading in the opposite direction at 79 Gazillion MPH. Some years, I found math class so off-the-wall I couldn't focus on the lessons. I once answered the train/semi collision question with the word 'SPLAT!' and the instructor sent me to the principal's office. That kinda started my humor defensive take on life. 

I have 3 specific lifelong heroes. One is Barbie. Gosh I'd like one that speaks as she does in this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NO0cvqT1tAE

And speaking of Barbie, Mattel should make a Barbie with no hair, so every little girl fighting cancer can feel beautiful. Put her in pink, name her HOPE and send all proceeds from sales to a sick children's hospital. Any pro-patient organizations out there wanna take up the challenge?
"


Why do I feel so strongly about this? Because "society" tends to value looks. Females are very sensitive to that reality. So are the cosmetic and fashion industries. Here's a reality check about what can be done to make anyone, female or male, look fabulous no matter what the mirror looks like to you:

I made my day by contacting Mattel with my "fighting cancer compassionately" idea. I offered to use such a doll in my speaking engagements. Stand by for major miracles if I get the gig.

How to Love and How to Protect Yourself from Someone Who Can't

B'SD




10 Tevet 5772




Today is a sad anniversary on the Jewish calendar: On the 10th of Tevet, the prophet Ezekiel was instructed to record in the Book of Vision this very day as a remembrance for the weak and disgraced Jewish people. This is the day when Nebuchadnezzar's siege of Jerusalem began. It resulted in the destruction of the holy Temple (where all nationalities prayed) and the Babylonian exile.



How can history be so filled with stories of hatred and suffering? The answer is more than this blog's purposes can handle. However, love is natural. Babies enter the world ready to love. They learn whom not to love later in life. Some folks never do, and they pay a heavy price for their long learning curve.


Here's what I suggest: Have special regard for people who refuse to love. That usually indicates emotional trauma in their histories. They need help to recover from it. I recommend EFT, EMDR, talk therapy and/or friends. If those methods don't work, step back. You're involved with someone too troubled to cope.


A medical or emotional crisis - you'd cry too, if it happened to you. Use your tissues and handkerchiefs with my blessings borne of experience. GOD gives you Permission to Weep; EMPOWER Yourself explains how and why on page 5. You can share the information with any critics after explaining that "It's MY Crisis! And I'll Cry if I Need To."

Here's the Help YOU Need for Keeping those New Year's Resolutions!

B'SD


9 Tevet 5772


My dayplanner and I have been quite busy lately: not one but two highly productive business meetings yesterday; a successful catch-up the day before - on work I'd fallen behind on; participation in several peace-promoting efforts in the previous weeks (one on radio); and some socializing in between it all. I'm still catching my breath.


I'm gearing up for my resumed speaking tour. Watch for relevant announcements right here.


Now, back to you: How are you doing with those New Year's Resolutions? Same old same old, huh? Well,



has a cure for that. 

Here are motivational excerpts from the book:


"Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great ones make you feel that you too, can become great." – Mark Twain, beloved American author

“Habit is habit, and not to be flung out the window but coaxed downstairs one step at a time.” – Mark Twain

Here's my Five-Step Plan to Organization: Some simple suggestions for keeping your papers and yourself organized...
