When we lift the shade or open the binds light shines into our homes. It’s the same way when we open our hearts and minds to the light of truth, kindness, and love we become a mirror and reflect truth, kindness, and love to all who come our way.

Feel Good Tip for Today ~ Our Name is Our Identity
I don’t get it. Two people start talking and neither one asks the other his/her name. Our names are our identity. Our name is the tag given to us at birth. When someone says to me, “Hi, Ray, how’s it going?” I know this person is interested in me. One direct and easy way to overcome the loneliness and isolation we face in an increasing digital world is to take the first step and introduce ourselves to others who are in our social sphere. My formula is simple, “I see you often, my name is Ray, what’s yours?” Do it with a smile. You’ll make a new friend. You’ll have broken down a wall.

We all have challenges
When we take the challenges on
We act courageously
We tell ourselves
Nothing can stop us.
Victory is ours!

Low Fat Diets Reduce All-Cause Mortality
A recent study involving 371,159 middle-aged and older adults found eating a low-fat diet reduced all-cause mortality by 18%. The study, published in the Journal of Internal Medicine, also found that eating a healthful, low-carbohydrate diet only marginally reduced mortality risks, while substituting low-quality carbohydrates with plant-based proteins and foods containing unsaturated fats resulted in a significant reduction in risk of mortality.

Poem for Today ~ The Divine Image
The Divine Image
William Blake
To Mercy, Pity, Peace, and Love, All pray in their distress: And to these virtues of delight Return their thankfulness. For Mercy, Pity, Peace, and Love, Is God, our father dear: And Mercy, Pity, Peace, and Love, Is Man, his child and care. For Mercy has a human heart, Pity, a human face: And Love, the human form divine, And Peace, the human dress. Then every man of every clime, That prays in his distress, Prays to the human form divine, Love, Mercy, Pity, Peace. And all must love the human form, In heathen, Turk, or Jew. Where Mercy, Love, & Pity dwell, There God is dwelling too.
