Yes, the very nature of life is that it's always changing. With having goals, we can adjust as those things change. If I have a resolution to lose (or "release" as John Assaraf teaches us) 10 pounds, should I stop once I get there, or would it be better to have a goal of eating healthy and exercising every day, which would allow me to release those ten pounds in the process. If I simply resolve to lose those ten pounds, chances are I'll find them again by mid year! denmarkguy, thanks for stopping by. Yes, the very nature of life is that it’s always changing.

Everything does NOT revolve around January 1st, and I am not always ready to set my goals at just this one time of the year. What happens when I realize something is a goal... on April 23rd? Do I "save" it for eight months? I don't think so... Life is always in flux, so flexibility with goals is essential.

Yes, it's a glacier from last years trip to Alaska. It was in the Glacier Bay area. It was a fantastic trip and provided an abundance of photo opportunities! Wordpress allows you to have a customer header. Go into presentation, custom image header, and then upload from your computer. Have fun! The glaciers are absolutely breathtaking.

Is that a glacier? Awesome! I'm going to have to pick your brain about how you got the piccy up there ... I want to use a photo of either one of our lighthouses or at least some redwoods and rhodies (rhododendrens). I enjoyed seeing your blog ... I shall book mark it and check back often!

I was having one of those “life moments” driving home. Although everything is great, I was questioning how much headway I was making and whether I was moving down the right path. I asked my “Al” for some kind of sign to let me know if I was headed in the right direction. Your reply was waiting for me when I logged on and worded in such a way that it was as if you were listening to the conversation in my head! Thank you!! =) papaw arthur,

I would suggest interacting with your soul, spirit, power greater than I, whatever works for you and make it a structured routine every day. Give whatever it is a name. I used to call mine Al.
