It was great timing since I got off early from work on friday, came home, packed a few clothes and took off on a 7 hr drive, via the Turnpike, en route to south florida. From north to south was a big weather change. Clear blue skies, sunny and fresh.I arrived at 10:30 that night, parked my Car at Rusty Pelican Marina, in Biscayne Key. I was tired but excited to see the smith tribe once the dinghy motored towards me. Of course we laughed and talked till early hours in the morning, in our usual south african accents, in south african terms and reminisced over the good old days & the plans ahead. Next morning we were up early and in the dinghy to the dock, on our way to the day's adventures.<br />
<br />
There's something about being near the ocean or water! I just love it. It's a different lifestyle compared to country living.I lived in cities, I lived on an island and now I live in the country, but beach life beats it all by far, for me.<br />
Of course Miami has lots of eye candy, fancy cars, and big stars. After 2 hrs in traffic I made it to the 2012 boat show and met up with our dutch friend, Paul, working on a 147ft private yacht. This reminded me of my days working as a stewardess. Since my return home, I have a strong need to travel and see more beautiful places.<br />

<span style="color: #e69138;">Last year I have been lucky enough to get my first fun filled job in the States, the new 2012 Tuscon Limited compact SUV (with heated leather seats), new friendships and fresh ideas. I look forward to travel more in 2012 and working on saving this year.</span></div>

Misha was only six years old when her parents were taken away from their home in Belguim to Auschwitz.<br />
She was given a new name,a new home and forced into a new religion. No one told her why her parents were no longer with her, only that they had gone East. So, one day,equipped only with a tiny compass,the size of a coin, and a few provisions,she ran away from her foster home,and set out East to find her parents.<br />
Misha crossed Belgium, Germany and Poland, on foot alone- until close to starvation in a vast forest,she was adopted by a family of Wolves.She ate and played with the wolf cubs,and was protected by their mother.Finally,at the end of the war,she found her way home to Belgium via the Ukraine,Romania & Italy.<br />
<br />
Mischa Defonseca was born to a Jewish family in Brussels in 1934; when she returned to Belguim at the end of the war after her 4yr epic journey, she met her future husband.After they were married they emigrated to United States,she now lives near Boston,close to a wolf sanctuary,and visits her friends the wolves everyday!<br />
This beautifully written book is about how a young girl witnessed the appauling cruelties of war,and for whom the animals of the forest proved safer than humans. It's about Life and living it without materialistic means,getting in touch with nature and it's true beauty,eating worms, bugs,leaves & adopting the animal instinct for survival. It's about the power of mind over matter,fearless strength & determination.One can learn so much from her hard life- story, and be thankfull.<br />
It is a book that will never be forgotten by anyone who reads it....and quite frankly, the most beautiful book i have ever read! (In a sense- i can relate to her feeling or wanting to be an animal rather than part of the human race)<br />

True success in life has to do with what we focus on. If we focus on becoming "successful," our human weaknesses may lead us to do things that seem expedient at the time, but, in the long run, may lead to failure, both in results and in character. It is a temptation to step on other people going up the "ladder of success."<br />
However, if our focus is on becoming a person of value, then we will almost surely develop a high quality of character and that will lead to success.<br />
What are the qualities of a person of value?<br />
First, a person of value is reliable and dependable. You know they can be counted on. You know they will keep their word. If they say they will do something, then you know they will.<br />
Second, a person of value usually is one who has worked to develop at least one skill and sometimes many that are useful and they are available to use those skills to help others. A family we know comes to mind, who have raised several sons and taught them many useful, practical skills. This has developed solid character and also success in making a good living using those skills. They are men of character and men of value.<br />
Third, a person of value is others centered. A person focused on just being a "success" is more likely to be self-centered.<br />
The person of value, values others! And, when we know someone values us, we appreciate them and are happy when they become successful.<br />
So, focusing on becoming a person of value means focusing on developing skills that will enable us to be useful in meeting the needs of others and it it means developing character qualities that are worthy of emulation, like dependability, trustworthiness, and caring about others more than ourselves, which is unselfishness.<br />

I thought this is something that comes with age, maturity, but it's a choice we make and what we focus on. To be a person of value is to become a genuine soul..and in today's society..we all becoem so absorbed in teh demands of our daily lives, that we forget about what's improtant and loose focus on who and what really matters..I understand the needs of family demands and work demands and balancing it out with friends and making time for everything else becomes overwhelming at times..I myself have thought there's not enough time in a day to do everything..but what one needs to focus on is being compassionate in every aspect of life!<br />

</div><div style="font-family: 'Lucida Grande'; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"><span style="color: #e69138;">“Art is pattern informed by sensibility.” - Herbert Read</span></span></div><div style="font-family: 'Lucida Grande'; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"></div><div style="font-family: 'Lucida Grande'; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 15px; text-align: center;"><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"></span></div><div style="font-family: 'Lucida Grande'; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">Patterns make up every aspect of our lives. Since patterns take on many guises, we are sometimes unaware of their presence. It may be the patterns of our actions – kindness vs. thoughlessness; the patterns of time revealed within our daily routines – work, play, rest; or the visual patterns of nature and art – contrast, repetition, and balance. These are but three examples of many that surround us. So, what patterns are you aware of and how might they inspire or affect your creative work? Let’s consider some visual patterns.</span></div><div style="font-family: 'Lucida Grande'; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 15px; text-align: center;"><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"></span></div><div style="font-family: 'Lucida Grande'; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">Decorative patterns are literally commonplace. Check out the amazing architectural detail in many buildings. You’ll see the stark, clean lines of contemporary spaces along with the elaborate, ornate patterns of old buildings and mansions. Our homes are filled with pattern – clothing, furniture, rugs, and quilts. Shopping trips provide an overwhelming amount of visual pattern. Observe dishware, window displays, greeting cards, journal covers…….. Look high and low, pattern is everywhere!</span></div><div style="font-family: 'Lucida Grande'; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"></div><div style="font-family: 'Lucida Grande'; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 15px; text-align: center;"><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"></span></div><div style="font-family: 'Lucida Grande'; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">Nature is full of beautiful patterns. Study first nature’s details, such as veining on leaves, ridges on shells, symmetry in flowers, and patterns on the fur of animals. Next, take a mid-range view. You may see the vertical space divisions between trees or within a patch of cattails, repeat patterns on water, or the ridges of wind-blown sand dunes. Finally, look into the distance at the patterns a field of grasses and flowers present, the horizontal space divisions of land, trees, mountains, and sky, or an aerial view of fields, roads, and rivers.</span></div><div style="font-family: 'Lucida Grande'; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 15px; text-align: center;"><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"></span></div><div style="font-family: 'Lucida Grande'; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">You get the picture; our world is awash in glorious pattern.

<div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I know how hard it is to maintain happy feelings. Life happens. Stress takes over, sometimes bad things make it impossible to be optimistic. Or we just simply forget to notice the wonder we live in, every day.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I forget, a lot. All it takes is one crazy day and I start complaining and stop looking at the world around me. I suppose it's only natural. But I have learned to make an effort to find my way back to a place that isn't cynical, that place that allows me to see the world for what it truly is, a marvel of mystery. Even so, I don't get there every day.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">There will always be good and evil, beauty and ugliness, sunshine and rain. We need to see both ends of the spectrum to appreciate those times when we stand in the middle. And if you think about, most of life is spent right there, in the middle.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">We live a whole lot of average, ordinary days that we don't remember because nothing spectacularly good or bad happened. But the truth is, there is no such thing as ordinary.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Every day is unique, each day is a new beginning. They might not all turn out to be pretty or fabulous, or even forgettable, but each and every day is a clean slate with its very own pencil right there, hanging from a string.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">We wake up each morning and we look in the mirror, and we see all the yesterdays that came before this day.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">But do we see the beginnings? The possibility? Do we turn away from the mirror with a smile on our lips?</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The yesterdays have molded us, the tomorrows give us hope, but we only ever get to live in today.</span></div><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"></span><br />
