I Was Reliving My High School Wounds, And What I Did to Move On and Walk My Own Path
High school wasn't easy for me. And parts of me were still stuck there, reliving rejection, bullying and embarrassment.
I have numerous memories which seem to penetrate my heart and sense of self, like the one (of many) where I spoke up in class with a question that was bringing me deeper into the process, only to be told that I ask stupid questions.
Or the time when I thought I was seeing a better way to do something, and brought that forward to the teacher, only to be told my ideas are outrageous and selfish.
There's also the general sensation that I was never really accepted into "the crowd", like I was always on the outskirts, not invited more than once or twice to "the gatherings", and never really making meaningful bonds with a group of people who I just couldn't seem to find an opening with.
It seemed to me like I was never really accepted, invited, or welcomed to just be who I was.
I've had recurring dreams, up to this day, of those one or two main people, who seemed to enjoy the process of poking these wounds. In my dreams their faces are blurred, though I know who they are.
It was only in my most recent dream that as this was taking place again, I told an onlooker -- "It's OK, he can't hurt me. There's only love here". I awoke amazed at the turn of events.
Last night, after a deep-dive self-facilitated session of EFT (tapping on meridian points while bringing up and feeling into core emotions) I broke through to another layer of it all.
It was only moments before starting the tapping, that I actually cognized how it was THIS constellation of experiences which was echoing in my current life: I was still playing small, I was still afraid of how someone would "judge" or "approve" of my work or my message. I didn't want to have outrageous ideas, or ask stupid questions.
I still wanted to keep certain parts of my voice and presence secret, hidden, in a place where they couldn't be hurt or dismissed.
I had the penetrating insight that I gave years of my life to longterm intimate relationships where my partners would tell me that I am too much, and in general keep me at arm's length when I just wanted to step ever-closer. And I continued to choose these kinds of connections, because it was so familiar.
It was all the same core seeds. It was playing out all over my life.
When I realized that all of these tendencies were secured in the halls of that high school and in elementary school before it, I attended deeply to the sensations and emotions of the girl who was still there. With EFT, and the time and tears and courage to go there, I awoke this morning a lighter, cleaner version of my soul.
I'm here, and my main joy is to support another human being in uncovering love within themselves. That's it. Yes, I'm passionate about this, yes, I have a LOT of love to give. And I no longer feel concerned, this morning, about how this message is received, or who will "Like" and approve it, or who will not.
It seems so important for us to keep moving deeper into this place -- where we are JUST ALLOWED TO BE. Whoever we are, however we are. To find that place of allowance, within ourselves, and the joy of entering into it with another person, as well.
And as we journey back in this lifetime and other lifetimes, and uncover all the ways that our energy has been folded in on itself, lessened, diminished, and unexpressed, we get to gently uncover, unfold, and smooth out all those bits of ourselves. And it only leads to contentment and peace.
It leads to us just....resting. Even more so than we ever have. And that is what I am enjoying today. That is the work I love to do, with myself, and with you.
That is why I created the training that I did, The Three Unconscious Vows That Keep You From Your Best Life -- because one of those vows may have been made in those high school halls. And we all deserve peace, and grace, and....rest.
Here's to you unfolding into your greatness, because that is all you have ever been. And there are Divine Truths, just under the surface of all these moments, all these emotions.
Last night, the message was this:
Despite any external appearances, you are infinitely loved.
And that's true for you, as well.
To listen to the training, get instant access right here.
In the comments below, tell me if you're reliving any of your high school wounds and experiences in your current life. Are you playing it small? Are you afraid of judgement, or waiting for someone to approve of you?

text: Throughout my addiction Ive done many shameful things and I was never able to take an honest look at myself until I made the decision to pursue recovery. Since making that decision I've had to uncover all parts of myself, good and bad, in order to have a healthy ego and come closer to my true self. One detail I've had to face, and one that undermines further progress is shame. However, by consistently working on myself, spot checking myself, and through working a program I've been able to handle and deal with that shame and turn it into motivation and determination to rebuild relationships with others, and most importantly, myself.

Tagged: meaning of life
The meaning of life….
Life is intrinsically pointless since meaning is something we assign to things; like a task is only meaningful when it serves a desirable goal. Not just any goal, the intention to achieve it has to be present in order to make it worthwhile. Intention is the key to meaning.
Since meaning is something we assign to things through intention, a meaningful life is one intentionally lived. This doesn't mean having complete control over it, this is impossible since life is unpredictable and the majority of forces influencing your life are out of your control. However it does mean acting intentionally, setting goals to strive towards, and taking steps to achieve them. Roadblocks will always show up, if you are living intentionally you respond by finding other roads and picking yourself up when you trip and fall. It means consciously deciding what you want to do with your life, not just reacting to whatever happens to you.
Our actions define us. And, as I pointed out earlier, our actions are our real choices. In the end it's not about what happened to us but how we reacted to it. What defines us, and how meaningful our life was, is how we decided to live it by the actions we took.
In short…
Why are we here? What is the meaning of life? What are we supposed to do with our lives? People have been walking around with these questions long enough now. Time for some answers! Here is a summary of my take on life:
There is no reason why we are here. Life is just there, so are we. We are free to choose how we spend our lives but also fully responsible for our actions. In order to exert free will we need to fully accept this responsibility and act on it.
Life-goals/ dreams we set out to achieve/ realize make life meaningful since it gives us a purpose to live for.
Furthermore, nature in general aims to survive and grow. Everything that stops growing starts dying. By chasing our dreams we align ourselves with this principle by requiring us to overcome challenges, learn new skills and gain more understanding of ourselves and the world in the process. Plus as added benefit, when our accomplishments are big enough we can survive our physical death in the form of the legacy we leave and thus honoring the principle of survival.
So, what is your take on life?

The Last Time
This was a photo I took on my last trip to London. It involved the Thames, a boat and a night-time photo of St Paul's.
It was also taken on a phone so the quality isn't the best.
Daily Photo - London
They say absence makes the heart grow stronger. It's true of people and places.
I haven't visited London to take photos for a little while. I've been there many times but only for events and not really having the time to walk around and just enjoy London.
Maybe we need to arrange a photo walk?

On the last strip I promised that I was gonna stick to the daily updating schedule.
Thanks to my scanner breaking down, that didn't happen. I managed to scan this today at school, but I don't know when I might be able to do it again. So for now, there will be random updates.
Sorry for the inconvenience!

Volunteer Trail Crew
We're glad you're here. Volunteers like you play a critical role in the stewardship of our public lands. With land management agencies like the Forest Service and the BLM facing decreasing budgets and increased workload due to wildfires, the demand for your efforts has never been higher. Volunteers are an invaluable resource to help keep trails up to standard for public use and enjoyment.
Montana Wilderness Association has been mobilizing volunteers through our Volunteer Trail Crew (VTC) program since 2012. VTC is MWA's way of lending a hand to land management agencies across the state through boots-on-the-ground service. Joining a VTC is a fun way to get outdoors, explore beloved landscapes, and meet new people while putting sweat equity into the trails we all love to hike and ride. Want to join the cause?

***We are still accepting registrations for the waitlist on all full projects. Don't hesitate to sign up – we almost always have last minute cancellations.***
Physical Ability – Please Be Honest
It's extremely important that you select a project that is aligned with your physical ability. If you are a first time volunteer – or it has been a few years since your last project – review this page to better understand what you are signing up for. To ensure your safety and the safety of the entire crew, you must be prepared for the level of difficulty of the project you select. Keep in mind that you'll be working full days in the field and that you must be able to work for the duration of the project. All volunteer registrations will be reviewed in detail, and we'll be giving special attention to those who sign up for projects that are "strenuous" and "very strenuous." MWA Staff will, if necessary, kindly recommend that you sign up for another project that is better suited to your experience and physical ability. Please call us if you're unsure about how your skills might align with our project work. Thank you in advance for your understanding.
Here is what you can expect from projects with these levels of difficulty:
- Moderate: Project requiring fewer than 5 miles of daily hiking. Work is physically demanding, but can be self-paced according to one's comfort level. Camp is not far from the worksite and there is access to vehicles at camp.
- Strenuous: Project requiring some combination of long daily hikes, demanding work tasks, and a hike into a backcountry camp. Opportunities for self-paced tasks exist during the workday but may not always be available. Camp will often be established in the backcountry and will require hiking with a full pack.
- Very Strenuous: Project requiring some combination of long daily hikes, a long hike into a backcountry camp, especially demanding work tasks and the need to keep pace with the rest of the crew at all times. These are our most challenging projects. If you have any doubts about your ability level, contact MWA staff prior to registering.
Project Deposits
MWA requires a $50 refundable deposit to hold your place on a Volunteer Trail Crew project. The integrity of our program requires committed volunteers. If you register for a project, we are counting on you to show up. If you either cancel or do not show up, MWA will accept your deposit as a donation to offset the administrative costs associated with pre-project planning and food shopping. Deposits will be refunded no later than October 1st.
If you cancel less than one month before the project start date, your deposit will be considered a donation to the stewardship program and will be used to offset the expense we will incur to find your replacement on the crew. We understand that sometimes life happens and plans need to change. If you cancel with at least one month's notice, your deposit will be refunded. Thank you for your understanding.
Wait Lists
Those projects listed as "Waitlist" are at capacity, although you can still register and be added to the wait list. You'll still need to provide a refundable project deposit. In the event of a cancellation, we will begin calling everyone on the wait list. The first to respond and accept the position will be added to the confirmed list. MWA will refund your project deposit if you aren't added to the confirmed list. We will also gladly accept deposits as donations to the Stewardship program.

Decades of research show that ABA is an effective treatment for Autism and Developmental Disabilities.
ABA discussed
Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) is an effective treatment for individuals of all ages with Autism or Developmental Disabilities. Early Intervention programs in ABA increase the likelihood a child will be successful in school and at home. Children, adolescents, and adults participating in ABA therapy show an increase in skill acquisition and a decrease in challenging behaviors. ABA has been endorsed as an effective treatment for Autism and Developmental Disabilities by The American Medical Association, The American Psychological Association, The National Institute of Mental Health, and The Center for Disease Control. ABA is a systematic assessment and treatment model that identifies and changes behaviors in a meaningful way.
Behavior Analysts believe that all behavior serves a purpose. By identifying the underlying purpose of behavior, a Behavior Support Plan can be developed. ABA is the science by which the principles of learning are applied to create behavior change. ABA relies on reinforcement to create behavior change and to teach new skills. ABA has been shown to reduce challenging behaviors including, but not limited to, tantrums, aggression, self-injury, etc. It has also been shown to effectively promote skill acquisition in areas such as communication, daily living skills, eating programs, academic skills, etc. For example, a child who screams and cries to get his mother's attention could be taught to raise their hand to more appropriately request attention. An adult can be taught to more independently brush their teeth. A child who throws a temper tantrum in the candy aisle can be taught to walk through the store quietly. By using a positive approach to teaching skills, a bond is formed between the individual, the family, and the Behavior Specialist.

NEW: Amsterdam Security Expo (previously SSA)
The Amsterdam Security Expo (previously known as Safety and Security Amsterdam) took place on the 31st of October until the 2nd of November. It is the largest exhibition for the security and fire safety industry in the Benelux. This is the place where products and demands, solutions and the newest information from the security industry meet.
The increased security risks demand a change of focus and a change in the approach of the exhibition than the previous editions. During this first edition of the Amsterdam Security Expo the spotlight was put on the new developments and innovations.
Boele Staal, Chairman of the Vebon-NOVB: "Safety starts with you. You'll find systems and solutions that will aid you in this, at Amsterdam Security Expo.
Marie-Louise Kalsbeek, Head of procurement and Coordinator at the University of Utrecht: "I am here to see the technical aspects of a firemanagement system with my own eyes at Amsterdam Security Expo."
Pieter Jaap Aalbersberg, Chef of the police force in Amsterdam: "Amsterdam Security Expo provides a platform which facilitates a dialog between current innovations and inspirations for future coalitions."

I'm a Design Strategy Lead, originally from Scotland - living in London.
I'm lucky to find myself doing what I love, exploring how design and technology might impact, influence and change the way people live.
Over the last few years I've been guiding companies through a process of design-led innovation. By working alongside business stakeholders and spending time with people using a product or service we've been able to unearth the most valuable insights and opportunities for companies. In turn, it has allowed us to balance what is possible, what is wanted, what benefits the business to create a strategic direction going forward.
As the Insight & Design Strategy Lead within the Design Group of McLaren Applied Technologies, I advocate for an approach which recognises the value of combining human insight, data science, technology, and design to deliver life improving innovation.
Currently we're embedded within several programmes across health, public transport, motorsport and automotive, from working to improve health outcomes and patient experience by collecting real-world data, to providing insight on systemic challenges that will lead to improved operational performance at airports.
Last year I completed IDEO's Leading for Creativity course and won a D&AD New Blood Pencil.

It may sound strange, but it is quite possible to make a meat dish vegetarian. Of course, it will contain no meat at all, but its nutritional balance will be just the same. The vegetarian dish that can fully substitute meat is called "seitan".
Seitan is a nutritious, high-calorie, protein-rich product, called "wheat meat" by some people, or simply "gluten." This is one of the best 100% vegan meat substitutes. From it, you can cook a variety of dishes, similar in taste to beef, pork, or chicken, etc. Seitane "meat" can be made soft - as if baked in a pot, or hard - like a chop. If you've ever tried a vegan dish from "beef" or even "chicken" in a Chinese restaurant, then you've tried the seitan.
In some specialized vegan shops, as well as in large supermarkets, you can find and buy ready-to-eat dishes from seitan, but making a seitan at home is cheaper and much more interesting, and - with some experience - palatable.
Some people "extract" seitan out of wheat flour: it needs to be washed to remove starch and leave pure gluten. However, of course, it's much quicker and easier to buy a dried seitan.
The preparation of a seitan from a semi-finished product leaves you a large space for imagination - cooking it is not so "straightforward" as one might think, as it's not a rice! You can cook a variety of dishes, but here you need some skills. Having gained a little experience, you will be able to cook the most delicious vegan "meat" dishes. Let's proceed!
1. Ingredients
Theoretically, you can eat seitan having unpacked it and boiled. However, who wants to get a plate of unattractive food of grey color? Therefore, other products, such as pea or chickpea flour, are often added to the seitan, as they make it softer.
Softness can be achieved by mixing some food yeast into the seitan - which, in addition, enrich the dish with vitamins. Among the liquid products that can be added to the seitan are: vegetable broth, olive oil, tamari sauce, soy sauce or liquid amino acids.
Solid foods include another flour and spices. Having mixed the shredded seitan, solid and liquid ingredients together, we get a "dough" - here we are halfway to the perfect food on your plate! It is clear that if you want to cook something like vegan "mutton ribs", then the dough should be kneaded more. The variety of the recipes is amazing, just try them!
2. Spices outside, spices inside
As well as meat, imitated by seitan, it must be flavored with spices. However, seitan even wins in this sense, because it is a more convenient product, as spices can be added to it both "outside" and "inside"!
For example, if you want to give the future "meat" a special taste "like a chop", try to add a little tomato paste in the mixing step of the dough.
If you suddenly missed the taste of a real chop - it's worth pouring a little cumin, coriander, oregano and paprika into the seitan - they are traditionally used in cooking steaks and will add credence to your tasty dish.
Moreover, if you want a seitan "chicken", "pork" or something more neutral to taste - use ready-made vegan flavoring, sauces or broths. Alternatively, it is even easier and more affordable to add thyme and sage.
After the soybean dough is ready you can also add spices. How to cook it? The easiest way is to put out a little oil in a frying pan - it will turn out to be a crust. Slices of seitan can first be fried in flour with spices, and then boiled in a soup.
Seitan in small pieces is better to be seasoned with garlic powder, salt from celery, black or cayenne pepper. In seitan "ribs" and "steaks" it is good to rub a mixture of spices 15 minutes before frying.
For example make a mixture:
- 2 tablespoons of dry mustard powder,
- 2 tablespoons of garlic powder,
- 1 tablespoon of ground black pepper,
- 2 tablespoons of powder of smoked paprika,
- 2 tablespoons of salt,
- 1 tablespoon of crushed dried thyme
- 2 tablespoons of cayenne pepper (you will get 1/3 cup of a mixture of spices, which will be enough for a long time).
3. Learn how to knead a seitan dough
Seitan dough, just like any dough, must first be mix with water and knead. The more you knead the soybean dough, the more elastic will be the final product! If you want to get a soft seitan - knead it a bit. The most part of the recipes with the seitan recommends mixing the seitanic flour with water and kneading for 3 minutes. Then you have to let it stand for about 10 minutes, and then to knead for another 3 minutes. When you mix the seitan, you will feel how its consistency changes, the liquid flour becomes more elastic - it forms gluten. If the dough can be stretched, and then it immediately shrinks back - this is the desired elasticity, and the final product will be similar to meat.
4. Stewed seitan
The most common method of cooking seitan is to put it on low heat. Therefore, it turns out soft. However, it's not so easy.
It is important to stew seitan on the slow fire, otherwise - if water boils and boils - you can get a "rubber sponge".
5. Baked seitan
Many people like to bake seitan - yes, it really can be very tasty! This, in fact, is also the simplest method - no foil, no steamer, no pans with broth are necessary! In addition, this dish does not need to stand until tomorrow, it's tasty at once. Particularly suitable this method of preparation is, if you decide to make "ribs" or something stronger than stewed seitan, which usually turns out soft.
Oil the frying pan and lay out the dough and let it stand it as mentioned above. You can stretch or grind seitan "cutlets" in a pan as you like, and, if necessary, cut into smaller pieces. Then put a mixture of spices on top, and bake for an hour or so - the seitan should bake to hardness. Take the baking sheet out onto the stove. When sticking again, cut the "sausages" and put the finished product on a dish. Then you can add sauce and finally eat it! Alternatively, bring it to perfection in the framework of another, an additional recipe.
The good news is that although the preparation of a seitan requires some time and skill, the end result can be much better than a ready-made dish from the store! In addition, there is nothing to limit your creative culinary fantasy.
As you see, you can make a meat dish vegetarian and vice versa. All you have to do is to find the recipe to your taste and cook it consequently.

Amazon is investigating starting trials of its drone delivery service in the UK because regulations in the US are too onerous, according to a government minister.
The online retailing giant approached Britain about beginning test flights of its "Prime Air" service which plans to use small unmanned aircraft to get purchases into customers' hands in 30 minutes or less.
Robert Goodwill, transport minister, said he had met with the US-based e-commerce company about being given permission to run tests on the drone service in the UK.
Speaking at a motor industry conference, Mr Goodwill said: "Amazon came to see me to ask about starting drone trials in the UK because regulations in the US were too restrictive.
"So much for the land of the free."
Amazon announced plans for the service in December 2013 and while many dismissed it as a publicity stunt, the company - which has a reputation for innovation - assured it was serious about the concept.
"It looks like science fiction, but it's real," the company said at the time. "One day, seeing Prime Air vehicles will be as normal as seeing mail trucks on the road."
However, Amazon has been hamstrung by controls over use of drones in its home territory and last year threatened to take the trial abroad if the US Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) did not allow it to begin outdoor tests.
WATCH: Amazon's 2014 in 60 seconds
In July it petitioned US regulators asking for an exemption from controls, saying that the company's "energy comes from inventing on behalf of our customers… We believe customers will love [Prime Air] and we are committed to making [the service] available to customers worldwide as soon as we are permitted to do so".
Amazon said it was at the time testing its ninth generation of drones for their "agility, flight duration, redundancy and sense and avoid" capabilities in its Seattle lab, and was developing pilotless vehicles that could fly at 50mph carry loads of up to 2.25kg – which covers 86pc of the products the company sells.
However, Amazon said because it was a commercial enterprise it was limited to indoor flights in the US, unlike hobby pilots of the aerial vehicles.
Last week the FAA granted Amazon permission for outdoor tests but the company said it had already moved development work abroad.
Paul Misener, Amazon's vice president for global public policy, said in evidence to US senators that while the FAA was considering its requests to test, "we innovated so rapidly that the [drone] approved last week by the FAA has become obsolete. We don't test it anymore. We've moved on to more advanced designs that we already are testing abroad."
Mr Goodwill said the UK is very interested in how the country can be at the forefront of drone technology and development.
"We're working with Amazon," he said. "And Government is working on the whole issue of drones. We're meeting with the British Airline Pilots Association and we're both keen to innovate."
He added that legislative issues around drones were confusing.
"If I'm selling my house I can use a drone to take an aerial photograph and give it to an estate agent to use but he cannot take his own one using a drone and use that," Mr Goodwill said, adding that the government is working to tackle such issues.
British law says drones must be kept within line of sight – taken to be about 1,500ft – of the pilot and not flown above 400ft. To operate beyond these distances they need approval from the Civil Aviation Authority. Drones used for paid work also need CAA permission.
A spokesman for the Department for Transport said: "For the potential of drones to be realised, the public will need to be confident that their operation is safe and meets our expectations on privacy.
"Drones are an emerging technology bringing significant economic benefits which is why the Government is working with international bodies on a shared regulatory framework. We will undertake a public dialogue about the operation of drones later this year."
Logistics expert Simon Veale said that he doubted whether drones would ever present a serious threat to existing delivery methods.
"There would have to be such an incredible investment in setting up the necessary infrastructure that it might well be considered prohibitive, even by the very biggest retailers with very deep pockets," said Mr Veale, a director Global Freight Solutions.
"When consumers look around and see how many alternative methods there already are – and how close they are – I wonder whether they would even think drones to be necessary additions to what's in place."

Largest Agricultural Investment in Ontario's History will Bring New, Modern Plant to London
LONDON — Ontario's Government for the People is helping to grow jobs, and support innovation and modernization in Ontario's food processing sector.
Premier Doug Ford, accompanied by Ernie Hardeman, Minister of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs, today announced a $34.5-million investment in Maple Leaf Foods' modern and innovative chicken processing plant in London over the next five years.
"This is the largest investment in the history of Ontario's agriculture sector, it demonstrates industry confidence in our growing economy, and it's another example of how we're making Ontario open for business," said Ford. "It's great to see a company like Maple Leaf investing here in London. This innovative new plant will modernize processing and help make Ontario's chicken farmers more competitive."
The new plant will focus on the highest standards for sustainability, food safety and animal welfare, and will raise productivity and help increase demand for more chickens from Ontario's farmers.
Also in attendance were Monte McNaughton, Minister of Infrastructure and Jeff Yurek, MPP for Elgin-Middlesex-London and Minister of Transportation.
"It is a pleasure to attend this Maple Leaf Foods announcement of a $660-million poultry facility in this community. I am proud to welcome this great news for Southwestern Ontario," said Yurek. "This shows that Ontario is open for business. I want to thank Maple Leaf Foods for continuing to invest in our great province and in Elgin-Middlesex-London."
"Ontario is open for business, and that includes our dynamic food processing sector," said Hardeman. "Maple Leaf Foods' new state-of-the-art facility in London will boost production, which will positively impact Ontario's chicken farmers and meet growing consumer demand for premium poultry products made in Canada."
Quick Facts

About a month ago, Bill and I went on a mission trip to Alabama. You might be wondering why we would do such a thing when we have a ministry and there are many needs here in DeKalb County. I wondered too, but just for a split second as I knew why we were going. First of all, Bill had never been on one and I knew that they can be life changing and second, we would be reconnecting with friends of ours who run a non-profit in Birmingham and are doing much of the same we do here--reaching out with hands and feet to those in need, ministering to those that need to know the love of Christ. But why would we go so far away to do this when we have it in our own back yard? Well, it is confirming to me to and believe it or not uplifting. What we are doing here is important, but needs are not just limited to DeKalb County--there are people anywhere you want to go to in need of help with roofs, painting, ramps, picking up in their yards, and prayer. It doesn't matter where you are, it is in your back yard if only you choose to open your eyes to see it. It is what started Steps of Care DBA NeighborLink DeKalb County. My eyes were opened on a mission trip to Mexico as during that trip, I realized that we had the same poverty, the same need for human compassion in our own back yards that I was seeing there-- but what was I going to do about it? God nudged me enough that I started a ministry (with His help and guidance) that was all about serving those that had needs, both tangible and spiritual. Has it been easy? Has it been smooth sailing? NO! Has it been worth it? Has it been rewarding? Has it been fulfilling? YOU BET! It is never easy to put yourself out there, to do something that you didn't think you could but what I think would even be more hard is to say, "I can't do that because (fill in your excuse)" or to not open your eyes to the neighbors around you or choose to ignore that there are needs----"you are just too busy right now--later". It is very convicting when your eyes are opened and you see the need--it is hard to ignore if your heart is full of compassion. I have heard quite a few people say out loud that they don't believe in serving in other places when we have so many needs in our own communities. Mission trips when far from home seem to serve the purpose of showing us things that we might have otherwise grown accustom to and have looked at with closed eyes, we become stagnant in what we see in our every day world. It is why many times, so many will take trips out of the states and then the next year stay in the states. I have a little quip on my refrigerator--don't know who wrote it but I keep it there as a reminder of why I do what I do--because of Him! Please indulge me while I share it with you and talk about convicting! "If this is going to be a Christian nation that doesn't help the poor, either we have to pretend that Jesus was just as selfish as we are, or we've got to acknowledge that He commanded us to love the poor and serve the needy without condition and then admit that we just don't want to do it." So, I ask you, where do you stand? Are your eyes open? Is your compassion for another human real? Do you want to help? Do you maybe need to make a change--in attitude, thought, action? I encourage you to start today with taking notice of those around you, or you can sign up to volunteer--we have done all the hard work for you in finding the needs---you just have to make the call and go as commanded. If you need to, go somewhere you have never been to before and look around with eyes wide open and then come home, I bet you will see some of the same.
Mission Trips---The Same Near or Far?

Ardoise, a Parisian typeface for Cafés Belleville.
"Since our coffees change all the time, we knew we needed a primarily typographic solution and wanted a typeface that was clear and very legible but also not at all fussy and with a very "french" feeling. We thought Ardoise, accomplished all of these goals and we're very happy to work with a typeface from a Paris based typefoundry. The label design was developed in-house."

Sunday 29th July 2012
What a changeable sort of a day. We started out with bright sunshine but with a cool breeze. At lunch time we went out for a Thai meal which was only a few hundred yards from the boat. The meal was a wonderful one shared with daughter Steph and boyfriend Scott. On the way back it started to rain, then it became quite heavy and everyone stood under the shelter of a building trying not to look to wet as everyone was without a coat or brolly.
On our return from face stuffing we decided that it was a day for doing some essential kitchen chores. The main one being to defrost the refrigerator. Over the last few months the thickness of ice has built to the point where we can get very little into the freezer compartment. We have a quick method of defrosting that involves bowls of hot water. It came as a surprise to find that a washing up bowl full of water and ice was the end result. I tipped the water and ice into the canal - the local ducks were somewhat perplexed by the hard bits of floating bread.
Walking through town, one of the big screens was showing what's happening at the various places where the big party is being held in London. It seems that it is not a peaceful event as there were two fellows wrestling with each other and a third bloke kept making them part. On the way back there was some blokes on pushbikes racing along the towpath. A bit later there were another group of blokes sailing up and down a lake with several others. They seemed to be having some fun.

By ignoring God's commands to enjoy His world and its God-given pleasures, legalistic communities find value in what they deny themselves rather than in what they enjoy. The more they want to please God, the more they surrender the very life that God meant for them to enjoy.
Though this truth is a central theme of the New Testament, it is illustrated in a new and enchanting way in the Lasse Hallstrom film 'Chocolat."
Based on a novel by Joanne Harris, this modern fable creates a make-believe French village governed by a pharisaical Count.
A rigid and empty man whose wife has left him, Count de Reynaud (Alfred Molina) has been increasing his grip on the town for decades. A wealthy landowner who is also mayor, his dark devotion to the rules of propriety and of his religion has given him not only political but religious power as well.
The redeemer-figure of our tale comes in the unlikely form of a nomadic chocolatier. A practitioner in the Mayan remedies her father discovered on a South American expedition, Vianne Rocher (Juliette Binoche) mixes chocolates that have a profoundly life-changing quality.
A beautiful and complex person, Vianne functions as a counselor, psychiatrist, pastor and friend to the impoverished souls of the townspeople. Having the "gift" to choose the right chocolate with its awakening powers for each person, Vianne's diagnostic skills become a popular alternative to the Count's dutiful prescriptions for life.
Having imposed himself as the mentor of the young, newly appointed priest of the local Roman Catholic Church, the Count begins writing legalistic sermons for the priest to preach.
This is the most dangerous seduction for a well-meaning Christian community. Taught by Jesus the impossible goal of loving unconditionally even those who would make themselves our enemies, many Christians retreat into practicing legalistic religious rules rather than vital Christian love. Once hidden, the soul becomes rigid, judgmental and destructive. Opposite to the teachings of Jesus Christ, such legalistic communities remain Christian in name only, having long ago excluded the very One they meant to honor.
When the Count begins to realize the power Vianne's charms and chocolates are having on the people of his town, his true self beneath the outward religiosity becomes obvious. Rather than reaching out in love, he begins a systematic campaign to destroy her and run her out of his town.
When he is finally faced with the true greed and destructiveness of his own soul, the Count is humbled and shamed by not only his own behaviors, but also those of a wife-beating alcoholic he had been trying to reform. His humility comes as an unpredicted answer to his prayer that God would show him what to do.
When the humbled Count releases his hold on the young priest, this novice pastor finds his voice to preach an Easter Sunday sermon that begins a transforming celebration of life not only for the Count, but for the entire town as well.
Though the redeeming power of chocolate is a fictional tale, the life-affirming message of "Chocolat" is a factual truth. We are created for life, abundant, joy filled life.

Marissa | Enfield Connecticut Senior Portrait Session/
This girl is awesome. She has shy smile that brightens her face when it finally shows itself, hair that changes color in the light from red to even purple sometimes and a beautiful face with eye that legitimately sparkle when she laughs. Her face is freckled and thoughtful (two of my favorite things) but even more valuable is the determination behind that lovely face. Marissa has a brilliant mind with goals set, she has ambition and despite the obstacles, I know this girl will succeed. And thats not just her former babysitter talking, this young woman has a heart of gold.
Miss you Marissa! Hope to see you again soon!
