Story of Lost Wallet

Today, I found myself riding the LIRR into the city, on a very rainy, windy, cold day.  As with most train rides, it was filled with an array of N Y people busy with their own business.  As you exit Penn Station, no matter what time, day or season, it is always filled with people and generally most exit up 2 sets of escalators to 7th Avenue & 32nd Street which is where I was going.  As I was proceeding, I overheard a conversation from a young man - dressed casual - but nice.  He was about 30, and although not physically resembling my oldest son, I was struck by the similarities.  He was speaking to a woman on his phone, whom I assumed was his wife.  He was saying he left his wallet in a taxi & had called to cancel his credit card, however, now he had no money to get home.  Then things got heated, he said: "What do you want me to do, go up and ask people for $1 till I have enough money?"  After we exited to the street, I could see he was so upset, I stepped aside to see if I could help & was relieved that I was able to give him $20.  He was stunned and I was at peace.

I was always taught you don't tell when you assist others, so telling this goes against my belief;however, I spent the day in "Gratitude".  Gratitude, that I had the extra $20 to give.  Gratitude that I have the many blessings in my life.  I spent the day in NYC seeing so many people with their hands out asking for help and remembering my mother saying "There but for the Grace of God go I."
So here I sit, for 12 yrs, with a business opportunity that I know has the potential to help people.  Everyone has ideas what they would do if they had extra money.  We always think about the little things in our lives, our homes, cars, clothes, but when we become faced with the needs of others whether due to illness, death, loss of property due to fire or homelessness and you are in a position to assist someone - That's what life is about, even if it's only something as small as a $20 gift to someone in need.   I'm grateful for this opportunity that was handed to me.  Maybe this could be your opportunity too.  #joinme

Breakfast Cereal Containing Weed Killing Chemical

So if what we feed our children isn't scary enough, now we're told WEED KILLING CHEMICAL GLYPHOSATE linked to cancer is found is some children's breakfast foods????

According to this study, they say they are "very concerned".  As a mother, I wonder....what exactly does "VERY CONCERNED" mean?  Does this mean that THEY no longer will feed these foods to their children?  Does it mean it is QUESTIONABLE or is it like so many other products that we have been told of possible danger and then several years later, told they then were put back on the safe list. 

In this case, when I read the word CHEMICAL an alarm sounds off in my brain.  I know I don't want it in my food.  I know there is no better way to start my day & that of my loved ones, than with a pea protein #Arbonne Shake #glutenfree #vegan

Skin Care, Cosmetics, Congress & Kourtney Kardashian?

So maybe someone can explain to me why it takes a celebrity (if you can call her that) such as Kourtney Kardashian to gather the attention of Congress?  Yes, you heard me right.  Last month, Ms. Kardashian sat down with members of Congress to discuss the ingredients which are permitted in skin care and cosmetics in the US vs in Europe where their restrictions and standards have been in place for many years.

I was first made known of these dangers by a advocate against breast cancer, Karen Miller who heads the Huntington Breast Cancer Action Coalition.  I recall feeling extremely naive, 12 years ago, when she said, what you put on your skin goes directly into your blood system in 26 seconds.  I sought out safe products and have been introducing them to others since.  Try as I might, there are still those who think what I'm saying is not important enough to listen to.

Hence, my dilemma.  If someone with tremendous knowledge such as Karen on the subject of possible causes and effects of breast cancer is not being heard, and certainly I'm not being taken seriously, WHY is KOURTNEY KARDASHIAN?

I suppose, it shouldn't matter.  The fact is, they did listen.  Will they do something is another matter.

Mental Energy Drain

If you are anything like me, about this time of night, 7:43p.m. to be exact, you're about ready to close your eyes, yet your body says it's still early.  The mind has had enough for the day.  It's saying I'm done, I'm stressed, I'm caput.  Perhaps I need transcendental meditation.  Having tried that with not much success, I find myself relying on my Arbonne Essentials Enery Fizz Sticks.  Ahhh - does the job all the time.  Yep, I'm back up and ready to complete the night.  Thank's Arbonne, you've done it again.
