Do not believe in anything simply because you have heard it.
Do not believe in anything simply because it is spoken and rumored by many.
Do not believe in anything simply because it is found written in your religious books.
Do not believe in anything merely on the authority of your teachers and elders.
Do not believe in traditions because they have been handed down for many generations.
But after observation and analysis, when you find that anything agrees with reason and is conducive to the good and benefit of one and all, then accept it and live up to it.
-Buddha

I wouldn't say that I have bee avoiding this blog/journal. I will simply say that I just haven't had anything truly worth writing about. I could easily have wasted my time and effort in doing so, however I didn't see the need to waste the reader's time....whomever that might be. I am amazed at the speed of time anymore. 2010 is upon us and I cannot remember where it came from. I remember being a child and wishing that I were older and the seasons would pass faster and faster. Now it seems I want to be younger and have time slow to where I truly have a chance to cherish it. I certainly do not take any of my blessings for granted. I do look forward to what this day brings as much as the new day to follow. So with this being the final day of 2009, take time to reflect on what that means and what it has taken for you to be here today. Tomorrow is just another day beginning another year. It is what you take from it and what you make of it that will determine whether it was worth it's while.
Much love to you my friends of SG. Happy New Year and well wishes on the things to come....

This morning leaving work I was blessed to see the world awake to frost and fog. Ultimately an eerie sensation to feel the cold and wet on my skin and my lungs. Driving home the sun vividly enhanced the effect. The only downside to the moment is that my camera is sitting on my desk at home. For being a night owl, I certainly love mornings. My hope is that the sensation I have today carries me through the weekend and the next week. Good times and good vibes................well wishes to you and yours
My eyes see
My heart deceives
News is news
Good and bad
This is currently what is running through my mind. I apologize for the negative tone. For this is not my intent...just stating facts. I have been thrown a curveball and I am still trying to figure out how to swing at it. Nothing that time will not fix. I just wish I had the answers. I know the "What" but just need to figure out the "Why".
Fun stuff...
