"The News"

Now those who know me know I don't venture out very much :) but on the occasions I have this week I have bumped into M - this is the lady who came back from the UK to find that her hubby has had a heart attack while working in the garden the day before she was due home - she has had her daughter and grandchildren staying for the past month, but now she is on her own and she is well out in the middle of nowhere - but as she says there are 11 {rescue} dogs and 6 cats and they can't be abandoned - she is coping remarkably well - despite all the running around in a maze of Spanish legalities, dying is not so simple out here or so it seems, bank accounts are frozen and proof of marriage has to be shown - and although they had had a will drawn up in Spain, because it doesn't follow the Spanish way that is also causing complications, being August adds to the chaos; it has given D n I plenty to talk about and at least mentally get to grips with - and we have a better idea of what and how we want things to happen, it would certainly be easier if we go for equity release on the house then a lot of the legalities are passed on to the bank/mortgage company, but at the mo this is not an option due to our so called recession, luckily neither of us plan on moving on just yet and no point in worrying about it what will be will be and the way laws keep changing everything could be different again by the time either of us pops our clogs.....
I have heard my song of the season - released tomorrow by Carbon Silicon - here are the lyrics and the tune is one that gets inside your head simple and happy - to hear it click here and fast foward to 50 minutes{between and third and a quarter along the bar} - a short version.......

THE NEWS - Carbon Silicon

People started caring about what they eat

And people started smiling at everyone they meet

And people started looking for good instead of bad

Realize what they could lose in what they always had



People started growing, instead of being crushed

And people started slowing down instead of being rushed

And people started looking with very different eyes

And this information now comes as a surprise



Good morning here's the news and all of it is good

Good evening here's the news and all of it is good

And the weather's good!



People started calling those in power to account

And people started saying, "I want my voice to count"

And people started learning that they don't need to fight

And they control their future and try to make it right



And people started feeling that better's on the way

And people started feeling some peace and calm today

And people started liking the way that good life feels

And every precious moment becoming what is real



Good morning here's the news and all of it is good

Good evening here's the news and all of it is good

And the weather's good!

Now this is right up my street......I have always perceived that my work at L Era is like a bloody good work out :)
"Alia Crum and Ellen Langer from Harvard psychology department took 84
female hotel attendants in 7 hotels. They were cleaning an average of
15 rooms a day, each requiring half an hour of walking, bending,
pushing, lifting, and carrying. These women were clearly getting a lot
of good exercise, but they didn’t believe it: 66.6% of them
reported not exercising regularly, and 36.8% said they didn’t get
any exercise at all." Read the rest of this an interesting experiment

Childhood Choices




We made choices in early childhood, which were appropriate then, but
are not appropriate now, and yet they continue to govern our experience
of life at an unconscious level. It would be wise to review those
choices made in childhood.

To reopen the channels of communication with your Soul, you must first
be willing to touch old emotional hurts that may reside within you.
These are parts of you that were made to feel isolated and unloved in
your past. To reintegrate these fragments of yourself and feel your
wholeness again, you must re-experience your traumas, but without
identifying yourself with them
