Power of reading

Published on by Zents Music Studio1 Comment

Do you want to improve your inner world? Do you want to grow your imagination? Do you want to get deep insight in a field you may have restricted access to, or travel to a world away from where you are? Do you want to associate with supergreat people who are canny, and classy, people so full of passion, focus and determination they will overcome the most incredible odds to achieve their mission?

Then read a good book.

It takes consistent practice to switch out of the noise of the electronic attractions to crack open a book.

Nevertheless, you will be more inspired and more creative when you walk around in a good author’s book, and open your curiosity to new adventures.

OK. I admit it. My two dogs are not angels. Nevertheless, when they go for walks they are leashed!

We (my two dogs + I,) had two adrenaline spikes that nearly made us faint this week.
The first happened at the intersection of State  and Fifth South (an unmarked intersection.)
An evil woman with a vacant head and a heavy foot in a dark Suburban drove towards the dogs and me as we attempted to cross State street. She accelerated and nearly ran us down. I wondered if she was blind or else had a perverse mind.The dogs and I had to race to get out of her path, to escape her idiotic driving.
The second adrenaline spike happened midweek, on a lovely Spring evening when I thought I’d walk the dogs on a different route.
We lazily sauntered up a sidewalk when 2 large barking dogs appeared without a leash aggressively attacking my two dogs.
The owner, a middle-aged neighbour came out of her house yelling at the dogs. They paid her no mind. The two big dogs saw their chance, and until they got yanked back to the house, they continued terrifying my two dogs + me!
Happily, no one was injured.
Speaking of injuries, I had to phone the police awhile back regarding someone’s cat. This tells you how much some people care. The cat lay dead on the road outside my door. I couldn’t bear to look at the sweet little thing. It’s owners let it out. It only has 1 life. So do you. So do I. So do our dogs.
Please follow the rules.

So, you may feel awful you arn’t young.
Big deal. Neither am I.
So what?
I love Ray Coniff music, I love Oldtime Radio, and I love structured clothing that flatters the fuller figure!

Live your life full of joy, and celebrate who you are!

There is only one you, and you are incomparable and irreplaceable!

Don’t let the smoothed-skinned millionaire youthful or youth chasers get you down!
There are enough of us happy Baby-Boomers who would rather polka dance than break dance!
Trust me. Have no thoughts of retiring.
Keep on keeping on!

Adult Swim

Today I am off to the pool.
I hurt a muscle in my left foot and I need to get some exercise.
The treadmill is out.
So is jogging and tennis.
Even walking the dogs is a pain.
What’s left?
The pool!
So, I got myself into the pool.
I got a good 15 laps in.
Then, I sat in the hot tub.
I went home after swimming.
I taught after school music lessons.
When I got home I felt a huge tiredness come over me.
What a wonderful workout.
I know I will go swimming again soon.

Your Secret Power

So, if you feel sad that your number did not turn up on Powerball here is something to celebrate!
You have the power to decide how to spend an even more valuable commodity than money!
What is that cherished treasure that even a royal named Elizabeth the First (on her deathbed) would trade all the wealth of her kingdom?
You know the answer.

It’s your “Time!”

Now, never forget.
It may be free, but it’s up to you as to how you use it.
That is your secret power as long as you live!

When did she learn to whine?

They say laughter and yawns are contagious.
I believe whining is also contagious.
My dog was in a kennel for a week. She is now at home. Sadly, since then, it’s the first time ever that I’ve heard her whine.
I imagine she picked it up from listening to the whining of other dogs.
It’s important that we don’t catch the “whining” habit from others.
It’s very easy to do.

How do you feel today?

l hope your day (or night) is going well.
It seems everywhere we look someone is opining on the lousy state of things, both on a global and personal level.
It is far easier to bemoan the world’s problems, (and our own,) then to actually do something about them!
I hope you are doing well in your corner of the
world.
Have a wonderful day (or night!)

Moments of Now

Today l learned to be more present. There is a lot of talk online about mindfulness. Rightly so. Really, when someone is too fixed on a desired outcome they don’t have control over, there is no real enjoyment. Life is one big worry. Better to change one’s behaviors and to be focused on moments of now .Then you may be more likely to be happier and make all your dreams come true!

I got home yesterday from Colonial Williamsburg in the state of Virginia.
How can I describe the joy of Springtime in that glorious state?
It was positively lovely.
