Positive Channels
Remember that the more energy you channel in a positive direction, the more you get back...And beware that the same is true for the negative direction.

Pitfalls
If I had my life to live over again,
I'd try to make more mistakes next time.
I would relax.
I would limber up.
I would be sillier than I have been this trip.
I know of very few things I would take seriously.
I would take more trips.
I would climb more mountains, swim more rivers and watch more sunsets.
I would do more walking and looking.
I would eat more ice cream and less beans.
I would have more actual troubles and fewer imaginary ones.
You see, I am one of those people who live prophylactically and sensibly and sanely hour after hour, day after day.
Oh, I've had my moments; and if I had to do it over again, I'd have more of them.
In fact, I'd try to have nothing else, just moments, one after another instead of living so many years ahead each day.
I have been one of those people who never go anywhere without a thermometer, a hot water bottle, a gargle, a raincoat, aspirin and a parachute.
If I had it to do over again, I would go places, do things and travel lighter than I have. If I had my life to live over, I would start barefooted earlier in the spring and stay that way later in the fall.
I would play hooky more.
I wouldn't make much good grades except by accident.
I would ride on more merry-go-rounds.
I'd pick more daisies.
I'd try to make more mistakes next time.
I would relax.
I would limber up.

Imagination Power
A man, to be greatly good, must imagine intensely and comprehensively; he must put himself in the place of another and of many others; the pains and pleasure of his species must become his own.
Percy Bysshe Shelley

Tomorrow
...there will always be a tomorrow in which to resolve the problems that today seem insoluble.

ALARM!?
Only after the last tree has been cut down,
Only after the last river has been poisoned,
Only after the last fish has been caught,
Only then will you find that money cannot be eaten.
