I hope you enjoyed the July 4th festivities. We created our own which began in Mount Charleston (just outside Las Vegas). We continued the celebrations in Vegas, as you can see in the video below. You may also be able to compare this one to last year’s celebrations somewhere in this blog journal.

Quick note re. a previous article: For those of you who did the research on water crystals as well as view the rice experiment, will perhaps understand the success of my own personal experience.

I placed a label with a very special word on it, on a small bottle of eye solution. At that time, my eyes were very sore, hurting, dry, and extremely uncomfortable. I could hardly keep my eyes open. In the past, I would resort to using eye drops that would produce very little or no immediate effect (nerve damage/side effect due to a previous car accident). This was the perfect moment for me to try something different since the discomfort was at its highest level.

After some contemplation, I thought I would ”test the waters”  and proceeded to select my word and place the label on the bottle. After a minute or so, I tried the solution, and was astounded at the immediate results. Not only did it work right away but the discomfort never came back (as it often did).

It has worked ever since (whenever I get those spells). I am curious to know how many of you have tried the water experiment and, if so, what word you have chosen? For some fun, if you can guess my word I’ll throw in a 3 day getaway. Let me know via this article so we can all take a peak. Also, if you decide to do the experiment let us know what personal word you have chosen. If you haven’t a clue what I am talking about go to the “Art/Photo” spotlight, select the current spotlight on there, and view the video clips. The rice experiment is the last one to view.

One final note: Look at the previous article, “Song of the Magpie” and see if you detect anything unusual in one of the photos and video clips. It’s pretty amazing! If you can guess what it is, a 3 day getaway is yours as well (for 2 adults and 2 kids). Don’t forget to respond via that article. This concludes our July 4th fun!

Click on the above picture to view your Father’s Day Card

Happy Father’s Day! All you fathers out there deserve a special treat, and I have found a way to shower you with a few! It begins with viewing a special recipe in the “Recipe” Spotlight (that you can get your wives to try out). Let me know how good it tasted! After, it may be a good time to visit the “Health Tip” section for a boost of energy (actually this form of energy will truly fascinate you).

Another treat for you is to view the “Inspirational” spotlight that will set the tone for a few days (and assist you with your challenges of work, projects, etc.). Then, for a break, listen to some fabulous instrumentation in the ”Music” category. The music goes right along with the “Art/Photo” section; again, this may fascinate and astound you.

I actually tried an experiment after all the research, and lo, it worked- immediately! I did not do the rice experiment (as it already had been done) but I wanted to try something else that would possibly have an effect on my body. My gosh, and did it ever!  The results were astounding. I will let you know in the next blog article so be sure to read and view the video clips in that spotlight (Art/Photo).

I pulled a product out of the Hall of Fame as there is a You Tube video revealing additional information for that particular product. I thought it too valuable to ignore. I, myself, use this product because of its tremendous benefits (keeping my youth in tact).

I’m not sure if I mentioned the “Vision” Spotlight in a previous article, but it would be worth a visit.  I had a lovely chat with this fellow last week and will reserve some hugs for him when we get together!

So, you wonderful dads out there (including mine), give yourself some time to enjoy these treats. You deserve recognition for the roles you play, and for your protective and loving nature. I salute you!

List of new spotlights waiting for you: Recipe, Health Tip, Inspirational, Music, Art/Photo, Wholesale Product, and Vision.

Drop me a line and let’s see how your day/weekend was spent (i.e. list of activities, celebrations, etc.)

This is an important day for all of us. It helps determine who we really are and what we are willing to fight for. Perhaps there are those who do not understand the fight, nor choose to be in it. It is true that there are times when we should walk away from a fight, but is this one of those times? There is always the risk of changing the desired outcome by not being involved.

The comfort zone we create for ourselves diminishes inch by inch as the world grows larger in dominion and demand. If we wish to protect our comfort zones we need to see beyond the boundaries we have created. It is beyond those boundaries that determine the stability of the foundation we have set up for ourselves.

Many great leaders chose to stay and build a worldwide foundation, leaving us inspirational messages of hope and renewal. They could see beyond their own personal boundaries by choosing to walk with future generations. So if we choose to walk away from a fight then let us choose to walk away with the rest of mankind.

Stairway to Secrets has been updated. Look at spotlights, “Art/Photo” and “Inspirational” (watch the slide presentation on “Great Quotes from Great Leaders” to see and feel beyond those boundaries).

Elect to participate on this Election Day!

As the month of January comes to a close, this is still a great time to reflect on your goals for the year. What are some of the things you are looking forward to? As long as you feel you are progressing, you can expect great things to happen that are waiting for you in the wings.

Building this web site has been a very rewarding experience. If you are a first time visitor read the ‘red carpet’ welcome in one of the previous articles. There are some great musical cards to delight in. Also tour the main site and be sure to include “About,” “Vision,” ”Health Tip,” ”Recipe,” and “Miracle” in your exploration.

For those of you who are already familiar with the site, these pages have just been updated.  In fact, the only page left that needs attention is “service.”  I am, however, on the prowl for a miracle spotlight, as well as a politician’s vision. These two pages have great introductions on those topics. Please forward the link to anyone you know who may have a beautiful experience to share. There is a special reward for those submissions!

There are some spotlights already waiting in the wings, that will replace the current ones when their turn comes.  Spotlights should last about a month once all categories have been filled. Building the foundation for this web site has caused some spotlights to grace the pages longer. Articles here will be posted more often now that the main site is coming together; another worthwhile goal for 2008.

It is exciting to think that our audience is growing with new friendships across the globe. It’ll be interesting to learn of other cultures, as their spotlights shine upon our world. We will be able to hear different kinds of music, try out traditional recipes, and learn of experiences that may rock our world. It will be an exhilarating journey for us all.

‘Speaking’ of journey, I am about to take another one; a trip all the way to England. I will be leaving on Thursday, with a 6 hour layover to look forward to in Chicago.  I will indulge in a good book during this long wait. To give you a clue as to what book I will be reading, look at “Quote Spotlight.” I highly recommend the read if you want to live your dream.

I will be taking my camera along to share my journey with you, so please come back often to the blog portion of the site. To begin our journey enjoy this video clip of the English Countryside, and pay attention to the brief message at the end.

To view video clip, click on the button shown. Clicking elsewhere in the picture will take you out of this web site and into You Tube’s site!

Farewell for now, I know the English rain will greet me, but so will the experience! Count on me eating fish and chips, crunchies and picnics. I also look forward to the parks, countryside, shops and open markets regardless of the rain. I will spend some time on the northwest coast of England, as well as the southeast coast where residents boast of the oldest beach in England..

Come back again to learn of the mystery places I’ll be visiting. Expect to see some great photos of rainfall; just kidding! I will leave the snow behind and the powder to ski in, but it can wait till I get back. England calls and so do my parents! It will be wonderful to see them again.

Merry Christmas everyone! It is Christmas Eve, and I have a card waiting for you below. Hope you can enjoy this day without all the Christmas rush! I only have a couple of things to buy, as I chose to have a candlelit evening with harp music, friends and food, instead of shopping.

It has been my goal to give special attention to the true meaning of Christmas, and invite the spirit of Christmas into my heart. I believe it is possible to have that while shopping, baking, running errands etc; fighting the crowd, long queues, scheduled visits, it doesn’t matter what it is, as each day is a bonus.

There was a time I was in hospital, bedridden, wishing I could be out there, fighting the crowds.  I would have carried a smile and given it to others, just to be out there having the ability to walk, talk and move around. Now I can enjoy all of this, and yes, I carry that smile still, because everyday is indeed a bonus!

As promised in my previous article, here is a thought for you to reflect upon, from my book ”Gentle Whispers.”

“Some travelers may stop at the first barricade they come to and spend many years figuring out how to get through.  Others may look upon the barricade as a marker on a map to help them continue the parallel journey.”

This thought goes right along with the poem that is spotlighted on the main site.  Be sure to visit that page. Other poems will be spotlighted as soon as I get others to join the journey with me.  It will be a rewarding one for all of us.

When one thinks of a rewarding journey, one thinks of progress.  Look at the site and see how we are progressing. There are spotlights on: video, photo, and poetry. The main site’s layout is done now.  Enjoy the other video featured on it and read its accompanying article, “The Everest Peace Project.”  Be sure to share your opinions. 

I wouldn’t mind hiking to base camp of Mount Everest. Hiking to the top of Mount Everest is way out of reach for me and my personal desires; however, sharing this inspiring story has captivated my heart. How has it affected yours?

The next article may not take us to Mount Everest but will take us on a parallel journey.  Stay tuned!
