InnerSelf Magazine - May 31st, 2004 InnerSelf Magazine  May 31st, 2004      "Life is 10% what happens to you and 90% how you respond to it." -- Anonymous      NEW ATTITUDES... NEW POSSIBILITIES Welcome to the May 31st, 2004 edition of InnerSelf Magazine. Life flows with its rhythms... ups and downs, light and dark, joy and sorrow... Each day brings its joy, its beauty, and its challenges. Our choice is always how we deal with the smorgasbord of life...  What we choose to partake in and what we choose to contribute. Here's a question to ask ourselves daily: What can I do today to make the world a better place? Each person will get a unique answer, one that is perfect for them... One that is theirs for the making... Here's to a better life for all... and to making the world a better place... It's our world, let's make it shine!

According to nutritionist Lindsey Berkson, M.A., D.C., of Santa Fe, New Mexico, the American menu is actually made of various combinations of the same foods, usually wheat, beef, eggs, potatoes, and milk products. For example, she points out, a breakfast of eggs, sausage, white toast, and hash browns is the same as a lunch of a hamburger, white bun, and fries, which is the same as a dinner of steak and potatoes or white pasta. Animals As Love-Detectors by Allen & Linda Anderson. You've heard of watchdogs who let people know when danger is near, but our Labrador retriever, Taylor, lets us know when love is lurking. Linda began to notice that when Allen was away and called home, Taylor often knew about it in advance. About a second before the telephone rang, Taylor would come to wherever Linda was and perk up her doggie ears. Then she'd give a short 'woof' and nod her head toward the telephone... Becoming More Conscious by Bud Harris, Ph.D. Using the word consciousness in any discussion can be confusing because it's a word used to mean so many things. Becoming conscious, in the Jungian sense, requires a committed effort to know ourselves, but this effort rewards us with a sense of energy, assurance, and peace. Being Married...Staying Together by Linda & Charlie Bloom. We were twenty-one when we began our relationship, and quite immature. Each of us was looking for someone to provide us with emotional security, since neither of us had developed any real sense of wholeness within ourselves. We had very distorted pictures of what love is. We weren't equipped to participate in a healthy relationship; neither of us had seen examples of them in our families... The Six Perfections by The Dalai Lama. The first among the six perfections is generosity. Generosity is of three types: giving material aid, giving dharma, and protecting from fear. 'Giving dharma' refers to the giving of teachings to other beings out of the pure motivation to benefit them. Giving away one's own possessions without even the slightest touch of miserliness and without any hope for reward is part of the practice of generosity.   THIS ISSUE'S COLUMNS: HOROSCOPE (weekly): by Eliza Bassett.

Breathe out sadness.  Breathe in love...  Breathe out hatred.  Breathe in life, knowing that all is well.                         All is well, Child of God.               ~ Shari Rathman ~        This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it          INSPIRATIONAL MESSAGE      A New Set of Ten Commandments Thou shalt not worry, for worry is the most unproductive of all human activities.   Thou shalt not be fearful, for most of the things we fear never come to pass.   Thou shalt not cross bridges before you get to them, for no one yet has succeeded in accomplishing this.   Thou shalt face each problem as it comes. You can only handle one at a time anyway.   Thou shalt not take problems to bed with you for they make very poor bedfellows.   Thou shalt not borrow other people's problems. They can take better care of them than you can.   Thou shalt not try to relive yesterday for good or ill -- it is gone. Concentrate on what is happening in your life today.   Thou shalt count thy blessings, never overlooking the small ones, for a lot of small blessings add up to a big one.   Thou shalt be a good listener, for only when you listen do you hear ideas different from your own. It's very hard to learn something new when you're talking.   Thou shalt not become bogged down by frustration, for 90 percent of it is rooted in self-pity and it will only interfere with positive action. -- author unknown  back to top of page    Your Participation at InnerSelf.com is appreciated * A Heartfelt Thank You to all our readers who are purchasing books and other items through our store on various subject matters (i.e. relationships, health, sexuality, astrology, spirituality...) ********************************************      We thank you for caring enough for the world  to choose to make a positive difference!       For additional inspirational and uplifting articles, visit us anytime at http://www.innerself.com \n This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it " b-email-label-fields="TRUE" b-email-replyto-from-field="FALSE" s-email-replyto="Subscribe" b-email-subject-from-field="FALSE" s-email-subject="Subscribe" s-builtin-fields="REMOTE_NAME REMOTE_USER HTTP_USER_AGENT" s-form-fields="from send " startspan --> INNERSELF MAGAZINE SUBSCRIPTION INNERSELF MAGAZINE SUBSCRIPTION FORM (free subscription) (Use the same link to unsubscribe) The new issue will sent by email (at no charge).  Your email address will not be shared with any other group, business, person, or organization.
