Owl Messages

The Great Horned Owl has long been a symbol of great wisdom to humans.  Probably because it flies at night and sees clearly in the dark – something that humans cannot do.  

The Great Horned Owl has been coming and sitting in the tree outside our house at night.  It sings a song that is filled with messages that make sense for us to follow.

• Eat only those things that you have grown or caught or worked for… you know that they are healthy
• Live in balance – eat regularly, sleep to heal, and play with your family and friends.  Work only for what you need to keep eating
• Try new things!  Let yourself soar, if only in your imagination.  You will be happy at how high you go.  You will see your life with more clarity.
• Do not try to see through another’s eyes.  Instead, go higher and look down at your self.  It makes a difference.

Blessings,

We All Fail At Some Things

The poster says:  Just because you fail once doesn’t mean you’re gonna fail at everything. —Marilyn Monroe

**********************

I am hearing about the lack of coping skills that many adults under forty seem to exhibit.  The refrain is “they do not know how to accept and deal with failure”.  In our world, not all of us are going to be able to excel at everything.  We are all unique and we are born with different strengths and weaknesses.  These skills require that we find and mesh with others and thus create the teams that are successful.  No one person can do it all.

You Are Here To FULLY Live Life

The poster says:  Life begins at the end of your comfort zone.

********************************

As I watch people aging around me, I notice that the biggest difference between happy people and sad or angry people, is the amount of change that each individual allows in their own life. 

What do I mean?  The happy people are always going and growing.  They learn new things.  They participate in groups or volunteer.  They go beyond what they can or what they have to do to look after themselves.  Many of them are quite active physically in walking, biking, hiking, playing pickle ball or swimming.  The physical activity allows them additional energy to do other things.  When chatting with some of them, they all say that they will give up other things to continue to do the physical activity.  

I think that there is a lot going on about aging that we do not understand and that we can possibly change.  One of the things is going beyond the comfort zone.  What do you think? 

Blessings,
