Take some time to reflect back on all that you have accomplished. Whatever your journey, or your intended destination, there is no doubt that you have achieved a lot along the way. Be proud of yourself – you deserve it.
No victory is trivial, and every accomplishment should be celebrated! Well done!
There is only one you – embrace it ❤️
Have an amazing weekend!
We are all members of various communities – neighborhoods, professions, age sets, and thing we are enthusiastic about. In some ways, being a member of a community is one of the the things that makes us who we really are – and without the support of our fellow community members, life would be much less interesting and far more difficult. It is wonderful to feel as though you are a part of something. 
Brace yourselves, northern hemisphere readers, the planet is about to ascend to the hottest temperatures so far this year next week, especially in Europe and North America. Stay hydrated and keep check of your loved ones. 
Putting yourself out there is really hard, and sometimes when you are looking for the right path you end up trying out a lot of different things and sometimes you find success but other times you don’t. It may be painful in the moment, but in the end it’s just part of the journey. Stay the course and you will get there, the road to success is never easy or straightforward.
Don’t dwell on rejections, just keep pressing on.
There are those people in your live who have the uncanny knack to always pick up right where you left off as though the time you spent apart never happened. I miss a lot of my friends, especially my best friend of over twenty years. Luckily, when I meet up with her, it’s like no time at all has passed. She’s an amazing, brilliant lady. I hope she has a fantastic birthday.
Friends forever through all of life’s ups and downs
You can make all the preparations in the world, but sometimes things will still go awry even with the best laid plans. The best thing to do is to take a deep breath and roll with it. You never know, something wonderful may come from something weird.
Sometimes life hands you lemons, or maybe a giant, empty bucket of mayonnaise.
Rest and relax so you will be recharged for the new week ahead!
Save up your energy – this week is going to be fantastic
Saturday’s always seem to get beyond me – I end up spending time and the time gets away from me. I hope you are all having an amazing weekend.
Alpacas are amazing too
Earlier this year, the twelfth of February to be precise, I reported that a friend of mine in San Francisco worked in an office that employed a herd of goats to do some landscaping around that building. Indeed, goats can digest all sorts of plants that are poisonous and quite a nuisance to humans. In fact, the digestive and grazing abilities of goats are now being employed to fight wild fires in California. With increasing wild fires brought on by the climate crisis, herds of goats are increasingly being called upon to clear out brush and areas at high risk of fires. Using goats in this way is totally green, as herbicides can be detrimental to the environment, and mowing equipment uses fossil fuels and creates air and noise pollution. Additionally, goat herds are low risk and more economical – in Laguna City, California where goats have been clearing brush for nearly twenty years a safety report estimates that a man-powered clearing crew costs $28,000 per acre while a herd of goats costs only $500. Goats may not be able to solve all of our problems, or the climate crisis, but every effort definitely helps!
From empathy to environmentalism – aren’t goats amazing?
