Today I felt like giving away complements. Appreciating the people I came across and highlighted thier best they bring and share. Also any other attributes that stood out as special qualities. I put a smile on their face and inturn it made me smile and feel a special connection.

Thanks you for this gift of giving :)

Thank you PJ- I really enjoyed "A New Earth" too. I have listened to it on a library dvd (pre-Oprah) and downloaded the audio versions of the 10 workshop sessions, his voice is so soothing! Best wishes for many more anniversaries! Gail

That is one lucky cat to have found someone who is as caring as you are. I bet he'll be back to his new "safe haven". Even if he will not be your forever friend, at least now, when he needs it the most, he has you for protection and caring thoughts.
