Today's Reflection
Where are we going? What's the plan for our life? Most of us didn't intend to end up as we have, but here we are! And a significant number of us might not be alive if it weren't for this program. We may have thought we knew where we were headed in our youth, but few of us got there. What we are learning now is that we have an assigned journey and that a Higher Power is in charge. This means we can relax. We don't have to figure anything out. We need only follow our conscience.
Following our conscience means never intentionally hurting another person. It means following through on the responsibilities that are clearly ours. It means honoring God by being grateful for our many blessings. It means feeling joy for the gift of life we've been given. It means trusting that our journey is special and necessary to the other travelers on our path.
I will remember to appreciate the nudging from my conscience today.
My Mantra is that I do not determine my success by the number hanging in my closet, nor will I let the scale determine that success either. . . It is through trial and error I will continue to grow and succeed. . . Laureen

Mag,
I had to laugh! Years ago while teaching 6th grade we did a combined English/Science Unit. My class edited the Science papers and kids got credit in both classes. I reminded them to re-read the papers after spell checking and that the computer sometimes would "self correct" thinking it knew which word they meant.
Well, one young lady thought once through was good enough and. . . .her octopus ended up with "testacles" instead of "tentacles!" And. . . .she was the science teacher's daughter!
