Thursday Thoughts!

Figured while the posting was on a roll might as well post the thought for the day for everyone. No, it will not be for those of you that are thinking about Mesothelioma at all. But something a little, no a lot different!

So, here we go for the Thursday Thoughts.

The dharma is such that it cannot be attained by groping or searching about. In the realm of seeing, knowledge perishes. At the moment of attaining, mind is surpassed.

- Dogen, "Moon in a Dewdrop"

Slight Delay

There may be a slight delay in the mailings of the publication this month. Due to the weather that we have been having we have yet to receive the copies back to us. The severe weather has pushed delivery times behind which has placed us behind as well.

We are hoping that the publication may still go out on time. Crossing our fingers that is for sure.

In the mean time a few of our staffers have been reading the strivectin reviews and thinking about writing an article on that for March! We shall have to see how that pans out!!!

Mid Week Musing

Tonight I would like you to put down those murad reviews and really think about something a little different. Sometimes having something to think about that is deeper and more profound we are able to sort out our own problems and find solutions. Reading a writing sometimes gives us that much needed break to think of what is being said and seeing if it relates to our own personal lives.

While you are unwinding, let's ponder this!

Don't cling to anything and don't reject anything. Let come what comes, and accomodate yourself to that, whatever it is. If good mental images arise, that is fine. If bad mental images arise, that is fine, too. Look on all of it as equal, and make yourself comfortable with whatever happens. Don't fight with what you experience, just observe it all mindfully.

Tuesdays Thinking

While we are stuck in the house due to weather lets think about something that makes us feel good instead of thinking about colon cleansing weight loss that might be needed to do! Sometimes we need a break away of something that is away from those serious thoughts!

Studying Zen, learning the way, is originally for the sake of birth and death, no other thing. What do I mean by other things? Arousing the mind and stirring thoughts right now; having contrivance and artificiality; having grasping and rejecting; having practice and realization; having purity and defilement; having sacred and profane; having Buddhas and sentient beings; writing verses and songs, composing poems and odes; discoursing on Zen and the way; discoursing on right and wrong; discoursing on past and present. These various activities are not relevant to the issue of birth and death; they are all other things.

Acne Home Remedy

One thing we use here instead of the spendy acne products is good old fashioned corn meal! That's right cornmeal. You use this at least once a week making it into a paste like goo and rub it on your face in a circular motion. Rinsing with warm water after you are finished.

It does take a bit to get it all off but the results are wonderful. removes a lot and I mean a lot of those nasty black heads. Leaving your skin a really bright color and softer than you would believe.

All my older children use this and telling the truth have yet to be plagued with huge break outs. Not to mention one small box is so cheap to buy! Keep refrigerated or in an air tight container after each use.

Snow Announcement

For those that did in fact get a hold of us and ask about the hours we are in fact closed until Wednesday. The snow has hit and it looks like it may be a biggie.

So another few days of doing article research, looking into an insurance quote or two will be going on here.

Answering phones will go to an automated service and emails will be answered within a few hours or so. Depending upon who is taking over that section.

We just want to make sure that we are all safe and sound around here!

Off Week

What is that we do when the week is a total shut down? Which is what the past week nearly was being the snow fell and fell some more!

One thing that I did was do inventory and clean up some of the work room space. Usually this is done in the spring but it was time to look and see what it was that was needed.

First thing that I was surprised in finding was how low we were with some of the office supplies that we use. Not a good thing at all! With all the extra time that was on hand it gave me the opportunity to order all the things to re-stock.

With more snow on the horizon I am sure there is some other things that should be done that has been overlooked!

New Announcement

We have been closely watching and talking with the Life Coaches that are in Indiana on the site and business operations that is about to be opened. So exciting!

Now, you didn't hear this from us but they will be doing a job search locally in order to find other life coaches in the Indiana, Illinois and Ohio areas to network with for future clients.

When asking if we could publicly announce this we were told in hushed tones that we should wait till the official announcement is made. Yes, indeed we will get the scoop and a pinkie swear for something special as well!
