By now, you've all probably received this a few times in your virtual
mailbox. This time around though, the "limited-time-offer" deadline of how
long you may keep this before you send it to everyone you love, has been
omitted. Act now. Just do it. Get it while it's hot. These are phrases
that can be owned again, not tainted anymore.
Slow down, smell the flowers, make eye contact with someone just to
acknowledge that there is another human being entering your vicinity.
Regarding information-piece number 10, try it out. But also try talking it
out. Until it's talked out. Until every emotion has been shared and there
is no room for misunderstanding. It gets crowded out by Love and Respect.
As in, 'I love you so much, I want to be understood and to understand you.'
Share how you want to be understood, and be sensitive to how others want to
be respected and understood as a unique being. We are all, in some way,
unique. Go with it! Live it up! Be as wacky as you wanna be!
Rock on!!!
Lavayouse,
Mari
P.S. I might want to add: Wear No Logos. And live/love your 5 or 6?
