Here is the last bit of advice for 2010. It's about Life...
1. Do the right thing!
2. Get rid of anything that isn't useful, beautiful or joyful.
3. GOD heals everything.
4. However good or bad a situation is, it will change.
5. No matter how you feel, get up, dress up and show up.
6. The best is yet to come.
7. When you awake alive in the morning, thank GOD for it.
8. Your Inner most is always happy. So, be happy.
I especially love number 6! Life has presented some challenges over the past year, but I'm feeling more and more hopeful every day that the tough times are coming to an end. That's not to say there won't be new hurdles to cross, but they'll be different and keep me on my toes!
Looking forward to the rest of a great year...

This week's advice for 2010 is about society:
1. Call your family often.
2. Each day give something good to others.
3. Forgive everyone for everything.
4. Spend time with people over the age of 70 and under the age of 6.
5. Try to make at least 3 people smile each day.
6. What other people think of you is none of your business.
7. Your job won't take care of you when you're sick--your friends will. Stay in touch.
Again they are so simple, but we get so wrapped up in our own selves that we neglect others, hold grudges, and forget how joy feels.
Life is meant to be shared, so share it well.

This week's advice for 2010 deals with personality:
Personality:
1. Don't compare your life to others. You have no idea what their journey is all about.
2. Don't have negative thoughts over things you cannot control. Instead invest your energy in the positive present moment.
3. Don't over do. Keep your limits.
4. Don't take yourself so seriously. No one else does.
5. Don't waste your precious energy on gossip.
6. Dream more while you are awake.
7. Envy is a waste of time. You already have all you need.
8. Forget issues of the past. Don't remind your partner with his/her mistakes of the past. That will ruin your present happiness.
9. Life is too short to waste time hating anyone. Don't hate others.
10. Make peace with your past so it won't spoil the present.
11. No one is in charge of your happiness except you.
12. Realize that life is a school and you are here to learn. Problems are simply part of the curriculum that appear and fade away like algebra class but the lessons you learn will last a lifetime.
13. Smile and laugh more.
14. You don't have to win every argument. Agree to disagree.
There are definitely items on this list that I can take to heart. I realize I waste a lot of time dwelling on the past or being angry or jealous of others. In order to move forward, I need to keep pushing myself forward. Only I can make my dreams come true!

I read some advice for 2010 that a friend emailed me and thought I'd share the first ten, which are about health.
Health:
1. Drink plenty of water.
2. Eat breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince and dinner like a beggar.
3. Eat more foods that grow on trees and plants and eat less food that is manufactured in plants.
4. Live with the 3 E's -- Energy, Enthusiasm and Empathy
5. Make time to pray.
6. Play more games
7. Read more books than you did in 2009 .
8. Sit in silence for at least 10 minutes each day
9. Sleep for 7 hours.
10. Take a 10-30 minutes walk daily. And while you walk, smile.
There are things on this list that I can definitely work on to improve my health. They seem so simple, so the question is, why do some of them seem so hard? I've got to remember not to take my physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual self for granted, especially as I age.
I hope these are inspirational for you as well. I'll post more later!

It's 2010.
I had a lot of interesting adventures in 2009 and am looking forward to whatever 2010 brings my way.
I made resolutions, like I do every year. My list is much shorter this year though.
For starters, in the first quarter of 2010, I will send out at least one query or piece of fiction each week. In the second quarter, I will increase that to two each week, three each week for third quarter, and four a week for fourth quarter.
I will also run at least three half marathons this year, and one will be a PR.
And last, I will be more patient and loving, and spend more time with my family and friends. I don't want to miss any opportunity to let them know how much they mean to me.
Uncle Kay, I will miss you! Thank you for all the great memories and for always sharing your bright spirit and hearty laughter. Until we meet again...
