TODAY'S
PHOTO -
2 Fireflag leaves in Wakodahatchee Wetlands.
The leaf on the right was one of those "catch-my-eye-as-passing"
images. He/she was most definitely standing there
having a conversation with the "person"
facing it.
I include it here to simply have fun with you, intending
that you, too, smile when you look at the photo.
It brings with it our wishes for you to have a good
weekend filled with great conversations.
SELF-REFLECTING QUERIES -
How often do you stop and pay attention to something
that catches your eye, or are you usually so intent
on your thoughts that you'll just pass it by?
I invite you to stop and explore the next time something
momentarily pops out for you. What, if anything,
becomes available for you out of that shift in your
action?
Also, when I glanced again
at the "eye" of the "person"
on the right, I began to wonder, "Is he/she
fully engaged in the conversation or are some of
his/her thoughts elsewhere?"
The next time you are in conversation with someone,
observe, when you are listening, are you totally
concentrating on that person, or are you thinking
about something else, perhaps what you are going
to say next? If you are not totally being with that
person, I invite you to shift back, totally, to
what's being said.
AUDIO TESTIMONIALS -
Check out the new 28
second message from Sondra, who shares how a
custom photo/drawing of her father, done by Sheila,
provided a major breakthrough for her in being able
to get past her many years of grief at his loss,
so that she can now enjoy photos of him.
Judith
Tramayne-Barth wrote to say, "When I wanted
to make an audio for Sheila, she made it really
easy for me. She called me and set up a 3 way call
so I could record how wonderful I think her ezine
is and her artwork. I am sure she will do the same
for you. And she didn't even mind the blooper I
made about her art site name. (LOL)."
Check out Judith's and other Audio Testimonials
on the new AUDIO
LINKS page.
I'd love to have your voice there also. A sentence
or two is more than enough, if you are person of
a few words.
I will publish the link for yours in Picture to
Ponder and on the testimonial
page on the eteletours site. You can call in
yourself at (214) 231-2905 ext 6956 or, if you wish,
e-mail
me to set a time and I can call you. We can
do a phone interview, such as the one with Renee,
or I simply can call and 3-way you in on the line,
while I stay silent.
