I was reading the New Age Bitch's Blog and found this really cool site called wordle that can generate these fun tag cloud images. Here's mine from October 28th, I want to see how much I can get it to change over time...
Do one for your site too and post so I can see!
Have a Wonderful Day~

The concept behind a book-blogging group is that a community of bloggers workI don't always do very well once the cold weather comes and the class is going to be on-going through the month of November. I figured it would be a perfect time to do some digging around my soul--maybe I can figure out why I hate the dark half of the year so much (among other things!)
their way through a book, sharing their experiences by posting on their own blog
and by reading what other participants are sharing. You can choose to share as
much or as little as you like.
We're starting out with Soul Coaching and my hope is that we will [have] such a magnificent time full of connection and growth that The Next Chapter will become a regular place to blog through books on various creative and self-development topics.
A lecturer, when explaining stress management to
an audience, raised a glass of water and asked, 'How heavy is this glass of
water?'
Answers called out ranged from 8oz. To 20oz.
The
lecturer replied, 'The absolute weight doesn't matter. It depends on how long
you try to hold it.'
If I hold it for a minute, that's not a problem. If
I hold it for an hour, I'll have an ache in my right arm.
If I hold it
for a day, you'll have to call an ambulance.'
In each case it's the same
weight, but the longer I hold it, the heavier it becomes.'
He continued,
'And that's the way it is with stress management. If we carry our burdens all
the time, sooner or later, as the burden becomes increasingly heavy, we won't be
able to carry on.'
'As with the glass of water, you have to put it
down for a while and rest before holding it again. When we're refreshed, we can
carry on
with the burden. '
'So, before you return home tonight, put
the burden of work/life down.
Don't carry it home. You can pick it up
tomorrow.'
'Whatever burdens you're carrying now, let them down for a
moment if you can. Relax; pick them up later after you've rested.
Life
is short. Enjoy it!
And then he shared some ways of dealing with the
burdens of life:
1. Accept the fact that some days you're the bug,
and some days you're the windshield.
2. Always keep your words soft and
sweet, just in case you have to eat them.
3. Always read stuff that will
make you look good if you die in the middle of reading it.
4. Drive
carefully. It's not only cars that can be recalled by their Maker.
5. If
you can't be kind, at least have the decency to be vague.
6. If you lend
someone $20 and never see that person again, it was probably worth it.
7. It may be that your sole purpose in life is simply to serve as a
warning to others.
8. Never buy a car you can't push.
9. Never
put both feet in your mouth at the same time,because then you won't have a leg
to stand on.
10. Nobody cares if you can't dance well. Just get up and
dance.
11. Since it's the early worm that gets eaten by the bird, sleep
til late
12. The second mouse gets the cheese.
13. When
everything's coming your way, you're in the wrong lane.
14. Birthdays
are good for you. The more you have, the longer you live.
15. You may be
only one person in the world, but you may also be the world to one person.
16. Some mistakes are too much fun to only make once.
17. We
could learn a lo t from crayons. Some are sharp, some are pretty and some are
dull. Some have weird names and all are different colors, but they all have to
live in the same box.
18. A truly happy person is one who can enjoy the
scenery on a detour
