TODAY'S PHOTO -
red hibiscus from our back yard

This is a mid-day photo with sunlight coming through the petals on the upper right.

A rich and colorful photo I thought it was a great one to wish you a rich and full weekend. Enjoy whatever you have planned, or unplanned.

SELF-REFLECTING QUERIES -
Just after writing the last statement, "Enjoy what you have planned or unplanned," it occurred to me that I could pull my queries for today from this statement.

I've been somewhat at a loss today with both my email and my webmail down and also being somewhat down physically. Part of my "downness" is my inactivity today and the fact that I operate with so much of my life/schedule "unplanned" and not written down.

As I reflect on my day, I'm thinking about all the things I could have done and did not. I "know" all I could have accomplished with the "bonus" time. Do I dwell on it or simply forgive myself?

I suspect that there are probably many of you out there who experience similar regrets as you look back over your day or week. I am choosing to forgive myself and I invite you to do the same for yourself.

Start your weekend with a clean slate. If you wish you can certainly make some declarations of intention and whatever you do, enjoy!

AUDIO TESTIMONIALS -
Have you yet checked out the 28 second message from Sondra,
who shares the impact on her life of a custom photo/drawing of her father done by me?

Have you listened to Judith Tramayne-Barth and Renee Kleckner on our AUDIO LINKS page, where Judith also describes how easy it is to record a message? 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 and 3-way you in and simply listen while you talk.
