Time Management
Young people tell you what they are doing, old people what they have done and fools what they wish to do. -French
“Many argue; not many converse.” ~ Louisa May Alcott

Anger is momentary madness, so control your passion or it will control you. - Horace
Time is basic. Unless it is managed, nothing else can be managed ~ Peter Drucker #TimeManagement
“There are seven days in a week and someday isn’t one of them.”
Maintaining a complicated life is a great way to avoid changing it. ~ Elaine St James
"You don't learn how strong you are until you are pushed beyond what you thought you could handle and you emerge on the other side with more bravery, grace, and determination than you realized you even had." ~Rachel Marie Martin
The property a man has in his own industry, is violated, whenever he is forbidden the free exercise of his faculties or talents, except insomuch as they would interfere with the rights of third parties. - Jean-Baptiste Say

The Mountain
If the mountain seems too big today
then climb a hill instead;
If morning brings you sadness
it’s okay to stay in bed.
If the day ahead feels heavy and your plans feel like a curse,
There’s no shame in rearranging,
don’t make yourself feel worse.
If a shower stings like needles
and a bath feels like you’ll drown;
If you haven’t washed your hair for days,
don’t throw away your crown!
A day is not a lifetime.
A rest is not defeat.
Don’t think of it as failure,
Just a quiet, kind retreat.
It’s okay to take a moment
From an anxious, fractured mind.
The world will not stop turning
While you get realigned!
The mountain will still be there
When you want to try again
You can climb it in your own time,
Just love yourself till then!

Once called the Jupiter River, the Loxahatchee River flows from the Grassy Waters Preserve, west of
I-95, east to the Jupiter Inlet and out into the Atlantic Ocean. A slow, meandering river, it's the focal point of the Loxahatchee River Watershed. The watershed encompasses 260 square miles; about 63 percent remains in natural areas. Below are some interesting Loxahatchee River facts and, perhaps, reasons to visit or become involved in this river system's preservation.

The watershed encompasses 260 square miles; about 63 percent remains in natural areas. Below are some interesting Loxahatchee River facts and, perhaps, reasons to visit or become involved in this river system's preservation.
- The river spans nearly 15 miles, 7.6 of it into the Northwest Fork, the segement that’s now designated a Wild and Scenic River.
- The river is comprised of three main forks: Northwest, North and Southwest forks.
- Much of the Wild and Scenic part runs through Jonathan Dickinson State Park, off U.S 1, and through Riverbend Park, west on Indiantown Road.
- Its 260 mile watershed includes Jupiter, Tequesta, Juno Beach, Jupiter Inlet Colony, Jupiter Island, Hobe Sound, and Palm Beach Gardens.
- The river encompasses several ecosystems: cypress swamp, pine uplands, pine scrub, freshwater marshes, hardwood hammock, mangrove swamp, seagrass beds, estuary and coastal dunes.
- With 4,300 species of plants and animals, the river’s Indian River Lagoon is the most bio-diverse estuary in North America.
- Loxahatchee River Watershed is home to threatened species, the Sandhill Crane and Peregrin Falcon, and to endangered species, the wood stork and manatee.

Near completion of the air raid warden system and more than 350 air raid warden identification cards issued to volunteers.

Gestalt Prayer
Gestalt Prayer
'Fritz Perls' = Frederick Perls
I do my thing and you do your thing
I am not in this world to
live up to your expectations,
and you are not in this world to
live up to mine.
You are you
and I am I
and if by chance we find each other,
it's beautiful.
