Exfoliation

Change: Only rocks never change. (Wrong.)
Exfoliation is an earth-science word that has to do with wearing away mountains through erosion. It is the process by which water freezes in the cracks of rocks and expands until the rock shatters, ever so slightly, and eventual breaks apart.

Good choices begin with good information. Words have the power to destroy or heal. When words are both true and kind, they can change our world. If you are alive, you must change in order to grow. But, don’t expect life to go in a straight line or stand still, because the future always comes before you’re ready to give up the present. We always have the answer with us. “Yes, I can do it.”

Happiness Now

Happiness and misery depend as much on temperament as they do on fortune, so try cultivating a better outlook and disposition. Your chances for happiness in life and love will be greatly enhanced.

Change your physical routines and move more toward action. Acting happy creates a better mood. Look in the mirror and laugh out loud. When was the last time you laughed with a big stupid grin on your face? Feel the stiff muscles give. Put on some music and dance, move, scream, yell, and shout out loud and remember that other people are home or at work sitting and typing.

We spend so much time working, often sitting hunched at a desk, and typing for hours. Our bodies need a chance to relax. Natural movement, whether outside or in the comfort of our homes, does wonders for us physically and mentally. Satoru

Smile

A smile from you can bring happiness to anyone, even if they don’t like you. But a smile can also ingratiate you with someone, help you succeed, allow people to like you more, improve your love life and interpersonal relationships, etc. Most of all, a smile on your face can and will make you happier.

Happiness and misery depend as much on temperament as they do on fortune, so try cultivating a better outlook and disposition. Your chances for happiness in life and love will be greatly enhanced.

Noise and Air Quality

If you are a jogger or breathe, this is an alert.

This information is from a meteorologist friend who works for the EPA.

If you are fatigued more often, have a slight cough, tearing eyes or running nose, it is a reaction to our worsening air pollution. The world is drowning in an ocean of noise and air quality alerts are much more frequent. Since the DOT has changed Grand Street in NYC, into two lanes, the heart stressing, horn blowing noise, and the air pollution, has become critically unhealthy. As a political organization, the EPA could not keep asserting that the air quality was unacceptable. Imagine what the public’s reaction would be after two weeks of filthy air? So, the EPA changed the nomenclatures of their air pollution levels. They are now using the euphuism “moderate” for air that is just on the line of being unacceptable to breathe. When the particle count is over 50, the air is unhealthy to breath. Our neighborhoods count is 47. It is also a fact that we are experiencing extreme pollen levels. If you would like more information, contact me for an alleviating alternative. Cheers. S

CLEAN WATER

I always feel guilty when I pee into a toilet. I have been thirsty and I have been hungry. You can live for weeks without food. You can only live days without water. Clean water is the miracle of this planet and makes all life possible. What am I doing, crapping it up? This is water that can keep me alive. We use it to clean, flush it into oblivion, and take it for granted. All the next wars on this planet will be fought over water. Ecologically we are eroding the foundations of our economies, food security, clean water, and health worldwide, as the atmospheres carbon dioxide level reaches highs not seen in three million years. When will we wake up and get the message? People have not learned to save themselves or take care of themselves and others, so how are we are going to save the planet. We interfere with nature continually and wonder why all the species on earth are disappearing. But all this will not matter if we do not have a planet to live on.
