Permission to Rant

A lengthly conversation observed at a beauty salon struck me as wasteful. A waste of breath, a waste of time, a waste of energy and money. The time spent on a conversation about fingernail polish involved immediate color coordination and extensive concern that polish would not last long enough for the foreign travel cruise planned for the near future. The number of weeks, the exact color best for the cruise plans, etc, etc, etc. This conversation lasted for 15 minutes. To those of you who might read this and are prone to the same kind of primping, I apologize. That is why this is called a rant. Rants occur when the ranter JUST DOESN'T GET IT.

Girl Talk

Today's breakfast club talk turned to relationships and why some people, especially women feel the need to be in a relationship rather than be "alone". Those who don't feel alone often have a great group of friends to meet their social needs. Even those who were once almost desparate to be in a relationship now are finding that the urgency has disappeared as they grew more comfortable with knowing themselves. The wisdom of this group of women, with varied histories of relationships, is that there is a difference between needing a relationship and wanting to be in a relationship and the difference is how comfortable they are with who they are, how well they recognize the patterns that didn't serve them well in previous relationships and being true to themselves first. We all agreed that being around people who are honest, kind and compassionate really makes our lives rich.

Lifestyle Class

Beginning November 4, 2010 I will be offering a 4 week, Thursday night class titled Lifestyle Choices, Changes and Comittments. We will be discussing current media information that is calling for changes in lifestyle to insure longer and more vital lives. This includes the call to reduce consumption of sugar, processed foods, impure water and animal products that contain unnatural additives, like hormones and colors.
