Feeling the essence
observing the universe
breathing in deeply

Cori MacNaughton

Sometimes it is best to just be. Doing gets all the glory, but sometimes doing is inappropriate, or even counterproductive, such as when we are physically or emotionally drained.

Today, while emotionally feeling pretty good, I'm just overly tired from not sleeping well, or enough. Although I have a new batch of hickory syrup that I need to can, I've decided to finish it tomorrow, as I am simply too tired.

But tired can be a good thing from the perspective of looking inward. Tired sometimes forces us to view ourselves and our perspectives in new and novel ways. And tired, having slept properly and become rested, becomes ready to take on the challenges of the new day and run with them.

Dr. Al Sears, well known anti-aging doctor, with his first-class
line of supplements that actually work:

Melaleuca, a company that has been making natural, eco-friendly
products since the 1980s, that not only work as well as
chemically laden versions from the supermarket,
but are safer, and typically save money overall in addition.

I was introduced to them by a co-worker in 1990, lost track
of them, and was thrilled to find them again about a year
and a half ago. I strongly recommend their products.

Prime My Body offers a nanoenhanced hemp-based CBD oil
that is legal in all 50 United States, and clinically proven to be
absorbed 3X better than the leading pharmaceutical brand.
I have used it on myself and my animals with excellent results.

The photo of the irises I took a few days ago with my Samsung Note 8 smart phone.

The photo of our dog, Lolo, and our late cat, Miod, I took as they were cooperatively begging at the dinner table, despite our longstanding rule of not feeding them from the table.

You can see how much that deterred them both.
