Here is today's thoughts.  Second hand news and holding your tongue.   One is hard to ignore and one is hard to do.  But, both can hurt and upset your world in more ways than an army of soldiers at war.

It is so easy to slip into that listening ear of gossip.  Gossip comes in all forms.  It could be news about something or someone.   It could be complaints about something or someone.

It is also easy to slip into the "let the hate words fly out of your mouth" gear.  When we are angry, it takes all we can control not to say hurtful things.  I know there are moments of when rage just flares and all you see is white.  It's at these moments we need to run from the source of our anger.  Leave the room, go for a walk to even talk it out to ourselves.  We just need to calm down.

I have let myself slip on my yoga and meditation.  I have let my personal self slip from prayer.  I have let in jealousy, hate, resentment, hurt.  I have turned myself at times into a cowering animal ready to strike at anything.  For myself, I have to refocus.  I have to apologize even if it's not my fault. 

This is a battle everyone has to face each day.  I hope you find what works for you.  Just like a yoke can never be returned to an egg shell once broken, so words can't be taken back once spoken.

No worries.

Good morning my friends and family, I hope this chilly day finds you warm and in bed with lots of fuzzy blankets, a cup of hot chocolate and a good book.  I'm in my shop right now with a jacket on and cold brewed coffee.  I have found out that it has more of a kick than hot.  The extra bonus is I can down twice as much in a shorter time.  LOL  I have to be careful or I start to act like a humming bird. Recently I have purchased one of those holiday projectors for my store window.  Much to my joyous surprise it can also use it as a laptop projector.   Not only that but it uses SD cars which I have three blanks and a mini with an SD converter cover.  I bet you can guess what I'm going to do. ;)  I'm not going to purchase the "Extra" SD cards from the company.  I'm going to find free videos online and record and convert them.  This will save me a tone of money.  Yes, they may not be the most awesomest quality, but they will be free.  I can also do videos for
