<div text="#000000" bgcolor="#FFFFFF" class=""><p class="">My granddaughter's wedding is over so I can "think" again. I
need some help with some of you considering taking on one of the
12 "thrive" topics. Suzyn Mills has taken #2. That leaves 11
more. I am happy to take on the bulk of the 12 topics by
interspersing what I would say with what some of you would say.
For example, I speak about #1, Suzyn talk about about #2 and then
I do #3, and then someone else does #4, etc. So we need five
more minimum to sign up. I am including the "thriving" ideas at
the end of this email. <br class="">
</p><p class="">Rebecca is the service associate. I need some help with ideas
for the two hymns. I would like to use two songs to be played at
the beginning of the service while we are waiting for things to
begin: Thriving by Mary J. Blige, and Rise by Katy Perry.</p><p class="">Jane and I will be putting together a "thrive" banner for
everyone to contribute to with their own ways of thriving.<br class="">
</p><p class="">I'm a little concerned about how to pull all of this together.
Perhaps we could try to have a conference call on Oct. 8th at 7
pm. I await your thoughts and ideas.</p><p class=""><br class="">

</p><p style="margin-bottom: 0in" class=""><font size="3" class="">During the coffee time
a
thriving banner will be created by people attending with a long
sheet
of packaging paper and markers so that it can be shared to
create
affirmations for flourishing, healing and success at thriving.</font></p><p style="margin-bottom: 0in" class=""><br class="">
</p><p style="margin-bottom: 0in" class="">1: Face Your Fears: Culture promotes
fear as control. Take that first step. It isn't the Grand Canyon.</p><p style="margin-bottom: 0in" class=""><br class="">
</p><p style="margin-bottom: 0in" class=""><br class="">
</p><p style="margin-bottom: 0in" class="">2: Accept that your culture's version
of being a man or a woman is a lie – tightly held cultural norms
about who women and men are unhealthy.</p><p style="margin-bottom: 0in" class=""><br class="">
</p><p style="margin-bottom: 0in" class=""><br class="">
</p><p style="margin-bottom: 0in" class="">3: Learn to love me - Maybe the
hardest – change self-talk. We talk to ourselves at 15,000 words a
minute so that means negative self-talk is powerful – how to
change
it. </p><p style="margin-bottom: 0in" class=""><br class="">
</p><div style="margin-bottom: 0in;" class=""> <br class="webkit-block-placeholder"></div><p style="margin-bottom: 0in" class="">4. Develop a simple practice of
meditation - take time for your needs and lower stress levels.</p><p style="margin-bottom: 0in" class=""><br class="">
</p><p style="margin-bottom: 0in" class="">5: Expand my experiences – by
investing in others – take a course, help out at something you
want
to learn</p><p style="margin-bottom: 0in" class=""><br class="">
</p><p style="margin-bottom: 0in" class=""><br class="">
</p><p style="margin-bottom: 0in" class="">6: Meet others 50% of the way –
invest in others but wisely – friendships/mentoring/peers</p><p style="margin-bottom: 0in" class=""><br class="">
</p><p style="margin-bottom: 0in" class="">7: Learn to ask for what I need –
sometimes I need to know what others think. It's what helps me to
be
successful in my work. I also need to feel nourished. There's
nothing wrong with asking if you did a good job, or what people
think
of your work, or decisions or goals. It's all in how you ask, and
who you ask.</p><p style="margin-bottom: 0in" class=""><br class="">
</p><p style="margin-bottom: 0in" class="">8: Have a plan for my life – don't be
Christopher Columbus</p><p style="margin-bottom: 0in" class=""><br class="">
</p><p style="margin-bottom: 0in" class="">9: Love doesn't conquer all – I can
love someone or something but not subject myself. Don't dirty
fight
– own my thoughts and feelings, use more emotions then
anger/sadness, say things in a way that the other person can
listen
to me</p><p style="margin-bottom: 0in" class=""><br class="">
</p><p style="margin-bottom: 0in" class="">10: Speak the truth – others speak
of their bigotry, racism, hate – don't let it in. Decide ahead of
time what to say.</p><p style="margin-bottom: 0in" class=""><br class="">
</p><p style="margin-bottom: 0in" class="">11: Expect the males in your life to
speak up to other men against sexism and racism.</p><p style="margin-bottom: 0in" class=""><br class="">
</p><p style="margin-bottom: 0in" class="">12: Boldly walk only on my path – I
can't give away something I don't have, boldness, confidence, etc.
and I can't help by always taking on the role of the rescuer.
Thriving takes lots of work and constant vigil.</p>
