Dwelling with nature

....Sitting in my backyard, embraced by the beauty of nature's parade.  Find time each day to stop, breathe and pay attention to the natural beauty that surrounds you!

Reality as Truth

Reality as Truth
Reducing the imagination to
Reality.....
Helping me to imagine
and change  more of
what is my Truth.

Reality as Truth
holding me accountable
for acceptance of what is
Reality.....holding me
Accountable for changing my Reality...
Helping me live through
what is now the Truth.

Truth is Real
Reality is Truth
Reducing the imagination to
dwell in enhanced possibilities
of what can be changed...increasing more
of my truth, the reality of
what will be....Accepting
Reality....Changed Reality as Truth!

Spring is in the air

Yes, Springtime.....Freshness....Newness....In the Air.....Grab it, hold on to it.....Dance and begin anew.  Let the season press you to new heights....toss out anything that hinders you or holds you back.  Remove it from your life and Live out Loud...Flourish!

Spring is in the air and certainly visible in my backyard!  I love this time of year.....everything is in bloom, the colors are popping, the birds are chirping and yes, the old cliche' and all seems right with the world (minus the pollen...yuck) - It's a great time for cleaning, balancing, restoring and simply following where the beauty of your heart and nature takes you.

The Moment

Be in the present moment of this day....every second, every minute, every hour. Don't get caught up in the past (it's a done deal).....don't fret about the future.... Live in 'This Moment' because it's what's real! Take full advantage of the NOW - Live  in 'The Moment'...Stay present in 'The Moment'

April: Jazz Appreciation Month (JAM)

April: Jazz Appreciation Month - Live It, Learn It, Love It, Support It! Every April, Jazz Appreciation Month (JAM) highlights the glories of jazz as both a historical and a living treasure. Here is one special month to draw greater public attention to the extraordinary heritage and history of jazz and its importance to American culture. Musicians, concert halls, schools, colleges, museums, libraries and public broadcasters are encouraged to offer special programs during this month.

The Smithsonian Institution’s National Museum of American History (which operates the world’s most comprehensive set of jazz programs) leads this initiative in concert with a distinguished roster of federal agencies, nongovernmental organizations and broadcasting networks.

The story of America is embedded in the spirit and rhythms of jazz; captured in beats that have traveled through the African Diaspora and a spirit of freedom that has impassioned slave and free born, immigrant and migrant since America’s founding.

Better is the difference...

Are you distinguishable from the competition? Have you branded yourself to be better or different? Have you set yourself apart from the crowd, from the cookie-cutter scene? Are you providing a product or service that others can distinctly identify as YOU? Is your footprint, modus operandi, your soul written, spoken, heard when the brand shows up?

If you're simply adding a new color or flavor....that doesn't necessarily make you/it different.....However, if you tweak it to the point, where the added difference has genuinely made the product/service 'Better'.....well, now we're talking.

Strive to Be Better....Do Better....Want Better. Don't resolve to simply be different.....allow the objective to be Different in order to Be Better! ..... Better is the difference!

The renowned designer Dieter Rams said: "Things which are different in order simply to be different are seldom better, but that which is made to be better is almost always different."
