A wonderful benefit of my business is the gifts clients bring me . This week I received "sevillanas" a candy from Mexico that is comes from the Spanish influence--they are two rice wafer discw filled with a wonderful caramel made from goat milk--good thing they are individually packaged or I would have eaten each one--gave several to other clients.
Later MH brought me northwest cherries that were shipped directly from the orchard--sweetest I have ever eaten--maybe I will freeze them like I use to do when I was a kid and we picked cherries at an orchard in Apple Valley, CA.
So in return I cut zinnias from my front yard for people to take home. I found some seeds for red zinnias that have the longest stalks that I have ever seen. And they last at least three weeks in a vase. Small acts of kindness bring us closer to helping our selves and the world in general.

- It would probably be easier if someone else related everything about me--when it comes to self-description I tend to take the route of anonymity. I live to be useful to the world and others. I seek to establish connection and giving with whomever I may encounter. In the last few weeks I re-read the four agreements and daily seek to live by them; 1.Be impeccable with your word--this means don't speak against anyone because you are speaking against your self;2. Don't take anything personally--anyone ever heard of the psychological term projection?;3.Don't make assumptions: ask questions, communicate what you want;4. Always do your best--you don't have to live in perfection--give yourself (and others) a big break. Here's an exercise that most days of the week I do: greet the sun with hands palm to palm; part your hands bring them over your head back to palm to palm; separate your hands and lay them out before you--while you do this ask for peace--not for your self or any one else--for the world for life for the universe...
