Don't Waste The Pain

In a curious way that phrase can result in  calming your mind and spirit.  Don’t waste the pain – is a profound insight that pain was not given to be merely miserable with but to learn from it and let it motivate you to action.

History shows us that great strengths are discovered in the the depths of pain, not in the midst of joy.  Let pain drive you to create, to be worthy of life.  The greatest power we have is the power of choice.  

Choose happiness over unhappiness, positive over negative and not let it drive you into despair and bitterness.

Your Grief Journey

When you lose someone you love you go on a journey of grief.  At first your unbalanced and stumble along.  You may even fall as the path is uneven, dark and unknown to you.

As time passes you will get more balanced with friends and family willing to help you. The path will become more even and you will be able to look back to where you started and see how far you have come.

Then one day you will realize that you haven’t fallen in a while and that you can see into the distance.  You realize that your grief journey has changed and you are now on the path of healing.

Later, much later, you will be able to go back and help others who are just starting their own grief journey.This will be part of your own healing and will be a blessing to those who need your guidance.

Does Flaxseed Help Protect Against Cancer?
Lately I've been thinking about my health and how cancer can sneak up on anyone, even me. Flaxseed delivers a concentrated dose of fiber, has generous amounts of potassium, magnesium, antioxidants, and even mimics estrogen. I can put it on cereal, sprinkle it on salads or bake it into breads or treats. There is evidence that it fights cancer and that’s good enough for me.

In the Fall I will have more then 12 new products on my website.
