Sunrise Saturday

Hey everybody, Its Reggie. Welcome to Super Saturday. Today I woke up early to see the sunrise at 7:20 this morning. It was beautiful and inspirational watching the gray skies brighten into a yellow orange glow across the horizon. over a period of about 10 minutes the orange band of light feathered out across the heavens illuminating everything and giving birth to a new day.



The joy of being with the sunrise sets in your heart .
Peace & Blessings

Attend To Your Perfect Self

"Why do we let the voice of our PERFECT self get muffled, overwhelmed, even strangled, by the voice of other people's expectation's?"

Prayer of Saint Francis of Assisi

Hey everybody, Its Reggie. This time of year I would like to remind everyone to be the change we would like to see in the world. Below is one of my favorite prayers for inspiration. I recite it out loud every morning, as a reminder to be the best I can. It always fills me with HOPE for the future. It means that I always have new opportunities, new lessons to learn and new areas to grow. I hope you enjoy it as much as I have. Keep growing today!

Prayer of Saint Francis of Assisi
Lord, make me an instrument of your peace.
Where there is hatred, let me sow love;
where there is injury, pardon;
where there is doubt, faith;
where there is despair, hope;
where there is darkness, light;
and where there is sadness, joy.

O Divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek
to be consoled as to console;
to be understood as to understand;
to be loved as to love.
For it is in giving that we receive;
it is in pardoning that we are pardoned;
and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.
Amen

World Blackout Day

Hey everybody. Its Reggie, Wednesday, September 17, 2008, I invite people around the world to turn off their lights for ten minutes – from 9:50pm to 10:00pm in their local time zone. TIME ZONE OF YOUR COUNTRY. This is a great way to bring the attention to the conservation of our energy supply. Have fun in the dark for a few minutes, I used my time to meditate.

Zero: An Investigation Into 9-11

Hey, everybody Its Reggie. I was recently directed to this Italian made film (documentary) shown here in 11 parts on YouTube about the inconsistencies with the 911 commission report. I state for the record that I am not a conspiracy theorist but I do have doubt with some of the facts of that day in September 2001. If you are like me, this film might help put some of the doubt in proper perspective at an level it does prove that the U.S. government had prior knowledge of pending terrorist threat. It is a great piece of journalism that I think will get you thinking.

Peace & Blessings
Reggie

30 Days free!

Hey everybody, Its Reggie Today marks the anniversary of surrendering my life to the universe. 30 days ago June 12th I walked out from the place I have worked for over 8years. Like all bad relationships, someone must move on. Finally out grow each other or have a failure of communication, I reminisce with mixed emotions. Many fond memories were built there. I would like to share some of those with you.

PHOTOS COMING SOON!!

Thank You
Reggie

Is Eco-Friendly A Bag or A Drag?

Hey everybody, Its Reggie. I am sure everyone has seen or is using recyclable grocery bags. You know those green cube like bags hanging from a display tree in your local grocery store. It took me a good two months to put myself in the habit to always have them where they are handy. I keep two in the car, and always carry one when just walking in the neighborhood. The key to this Eco-friendly bag is accompanied with what I like to call Eco-friendly shopping. By using these bags I have limited space and a limited number of bags so I only buy the essential items not having to waste food that wont be eaten. Making a list is also helpful. Before the Eco bags I just bought stuff. Now I can see a dramatic difference in my shopping habits.
Plastic and Paper Bag Facts to Think About:
  • A Plastic bag takes 450 years to biodegrade. Imagine 10 billion of them.
  • The production of paper bags causes 70% more pollution than Plastic.
  • When plastic degrades it ends up in our oceans. Incidentally, it appears much like a plankton, and is then consumed by fish. Fish eat it, and it winds up on your dinner table.
  • The recycling of plastic emits heavy metals into the air causing extreme air pollution.
  • An average person will use over 350 bags in a single year!
  • In New York City, one less grocery bag per person would reduce waste by five million pounds and save $250,000 in disposal costs!
  • In 1999 more than 14 million trees were cut down to produce 10 billion paper bags that were used by Americans that year!
  • The recipe for making paper bags starts with 1 part pulp, 400 parts water. What a waste of water!

Just a Thought X: Independence Day

Hey everybody, Its Reggie. Today is the 4 of July, lam sure many of you celebrate with the day off from work and maybe a barbecue with family and friends. Everyone enjoys ending the day by watching the night skies light up with the sights and sounds of fireworks so proudly displayed. A reenactment of the battles our soldiers fought so bravely in. They endured all to bring freedom to their land. This was their hight intention. On this 4 of July I want everyone to understand The fight for this freedom was not easy to accomplish. Our forefathers with great intention and perilous action achieved the greatness of being free and with this freedom comes great responsibility. Our founding fathers understood this as our fundamental right. Let us not ever have this right compromised.

Namaste,
Reggie

George Carlin Dead at 71

George Carlin, Legendary comic and writer. Died on Sunday in Santa Monica California, due to heart failure. He was 71 years old. I always have enjoyed his HBO specials. They always had me laughing. Especially the "seven words you cant say on television" that he just said. His comedy was a way for him to express his higher self. He planted seeds of thought in everyone who dare listen, taking aim at social injustice and society itself for all its foibles and hypocrisies. A genus in the understanding of human condition and a pioneer in new entertainment. He will me missed.


Namaste,
Reggie
