My time is valueable

Writing my blog relaxes me :)




Today has been another day of squeezing things in and me running, but it is all beautiful things.  I am so happy I get to plan Sunday fun days for my children, and get exhausted from good things.  My mother in law had her third session with www.rolandhealinghands.com, and I am so grateful to learn this amazing process and see her progress.

I know many parents agree with me about Los Angeles billboards, they are so over the top, gross sometimes like that strain eyeball one, and very sexual, but I cracked up today when my kids saw the one for the movie sex tape, it just has the man and woman in funny poses, and my son said, look they are doing exercise!

I love a child's mind, and I love how they view the world differently until they are taught the harsh realities.  It is so important we nurture our children's kindness, caring, giving, and work on those intense urges that are purely instinctual, but can be aggressive.  Today I am seeing stories non stop about the middle east conflict, and I just want to link a few of the articles and videos, if this does not interest you, please just ignore, but they are touching my soul, and giving me valuable information.

I am working on using my time wisely, saving my energy for my kids, husband, and my work that I love, everything else comes second to that.  I am going to slow down, schedule things a little further apart, so I have to to recharge, to sit down and blog! It makes me feel so good to express myself, and I enjoy hearing everyone's experience when they read my blog, please keep sharing with me, I absolutely love your thoughts.

So please use your time wisely, this is the end of the blog if you are not into the rest, but these few stories about the middle east conflict and the humanity of both sides is touching my heart, but there is also horrendous view points that are inhumane, just not OK, it makes me sad how people that have these thoughts were raised and treated as children.

The Jewish and Palestinian families comfort each other, both of their boys were murdered,

This was written in response to the horrible killing of a Palestinian young boy,
Sorry. That's what the big word graffitied on Yitzchak Rabin's memorial says.

In 1995, the Yitzchak Rabin was shot by a fellow Jew, a fellow Israeli. The nation was stunned, we couldn't believe one of our own could be capable of something so horrific. The word "sorry" rings out to Israelis, to Palestinians, to the world, because we are in this together, and when a Jew acts despicably, we all need to apologize.

Today, we have discovered that it was a group of young Jewish, Israeli men, acting alone, who took the Palestinian teen and burned him alive. Despite the rumors, despite the sincere wish we had that it wasn't Jews who did this, the truth is clear: it was us.

Today, we need to say sorry again. We need to recognize and take responsibility for our people. We need to stop trying to find excuses, stop trying to blame others, stop trying to deny the truth. Stop with the conspiracy theories.

And we just need to say sorry.
