introducing..

SANCHEZ

he is an explorer. 

 sometimes he thinks he's a demon dog..

 but deep down he's a total softy.

 i think he'll fit in quite nicely.

i like him.

what a wonderful weekend.

conference came right on time, as always does.

a few words that properly describe the way i feel might be: 

grateful

nourished

inspired

loved

strengthened

hopeful

i've set some new goals and am excited for the progress i will make before 

the next conference begins.

after the sunday afternoon session cory, sanchez, and i headed up the canyon

 did you know i recently purchased this furry ball of happiness?

 i call him sanchez

the countdown is on..

conference begins in 47 minutes!! 

 I'm excited.

october.

today is the first day of.... 

october!

this calls for a slew of new beginnings which include:

• fall
• red, orange, and yellow leaves
• sweaters, scarves, skirts, and leggings
• pumpkin spice everything
• scented candles
• halloween
• jack o lanterns
• sniffley noses 
• the sacred sound of conference

One new beginning I personally would like to embark upon this wondrous october day is a value of the month.

 OCTOBER: GRATITUDE
                    here is the inspiration behind the value..

 "If you look to others for fulfillment,

you will never truly be fulfilled.

If your happiness depends on money,

you will never be happy with yourself.

Be content with what you have;

rejoice in the way things are.

When you realize there is nothing lacking,

the whole world belongs to you."

--LAO TZU

"One of the incredible truths about gratitude is that  it is impossible to feel both the positive emotion of thankfulness and a negative emotion such as anger or fear at the same time. Gratitude births only positive feelings -- love, compassion, joy, and hope. As we focus on what we are thankful for, negative feelings simply melt away."
