The Absurdity of Homelessness October 18, 2004

The sounds of the surf like a heart beat, signal the dawn of a new day.
Birds fly quietly by, awaiting the sunrise. A young woman sits alone
on the beach, a blanket draped over her as to shield her fragile self
from the world around her. I immediately flash back to that time in my
own life that seems so very long ago when I too was without a place to
call home. A citizen of the universe free to roam and do as I please.

However, along with that “free as a bird’ existence comes an incredible
amount of pain and loneness. There is a big price to be paid for that
vagabond lifestyle, a lifestyle most will never experience, fortunately
for them. Perhaps this is why there is homelessness. Most people do
not understand it; most people cannot ever see themselves in that
predicament. If they could, perhaps we could end the problem. If
people only knew how easy it is to find oneself in that situation. All
it takes is for a few things to go wrong, the loss of a job, death of a
spouse or parent, failure of a business, a runaway lover, any number of
events can take place which can result in a loss of one’s place to
live.

If people could only understand how easily this can occur they
would surely open their hearts and vow to end the problem.
Homelessness is problem that plagues our country, the richest country
in the world. How absurd! Homelessness and hunger in the United States
is our biggest national failure and our greatest embarrassment. The
time has come to do something to end it.

Fall is for Planting October 7, 2004

Recently, I was driving past a local nursery and saw a sign that said,
“Fall Is For Planting.” As I drove, the idea on the sign was gnawing
away at me. I asked myself, “what am I planting for fall?” What actions
will I take now that will, with some love and nurturing, bring me a
splendid and bountiful winter harvest?

What about you? What are you going to plant this fall? Will you
lovingly plant exciting new seeds of action that will sprout into a new
and more interesting lifestyle or will you, as James Allen says in As A
Man Thinketh, let weeds grow by themselves?

As we enter this beautiful time of year, why not devote some time and
energy to planning what you want to harvest in the winter months ahead.
What can you do now, that will result in a bountiful harvest for you
and your loved ones? The actions you take today will create the kind
of life you will have tomorrow. Remember the simple idea that, if you
continue to take the same actions, you will continue to produce the
same results. If you want new and different results, you must take new
and different actions.

Are you facing health challenges? Maybe now is the ideal time to begin
a healthier food program and exercise regimen. If you start now, by
Christmas, you will look and feel great. Imagine entering the New Year
without having to make a resolution to go on a diet! Imagine sitting at
a Thanksgiving dinner table and not feeling guilty about overeating
because you’ve already taken good care of your health. You may even
decide to allow yourself a guilt free feast because you’ve earned it.

Is this the time to begin planting new seeds of love in your
relationships? What can you do now that will strengthen your bond with
your soul mate in the months to come? What can you do now, that will
blossom into a closer relationship with your children?

Take some time now to think about what seeds of action you can plant
this fall to insure a beautiful, bountiful and exciting winter harvest.
