A year ago today, I wrote this post. I thought you might like to read it again...

What´s my creed? (Click here to find the link for the book)
Jamie got me thinking about this again after I read her recent post. There are rules we all live by...rules we were brought up with or taught along the way and rules we make for ourselves. I was born into a catholic home and I learnt about the 10 commandments at an early age. My family went to church often and I listened to what the priest had to say about loving thy neighbour and Jesus being our saviour but within my family I didn´t find the unconditional love that was preached about. I tried to be a church goer again after my children were born but I didn´t feel at home and after my marraige broke up, most sermons had me feeling like a loser.About 2 years ago I found a book called "Message from Forever" by Marla Morgan. It´s a story about finding yourself and finding your roots. At the end of this book there are 10 "you should" commandments that the Australian Aborigines live by. I do my best to remember them and live by them and although I don´t always succeed I know that they are right for me. Here they are:

1. You are to express your own creativity

2. Recognize that you carry responsibility

3. Before your birth you consented to help others

4. You are to attain emotional maturity

5. You should be entertaining

6. You should be a good manager of your energy

7. You should enjoy music

8. You should strive for wisdom

9. You are to learn self discipline

10.You are to observe without judging

There are explanations for all of these and if you want to know more, I encourage you to read the book.

Autumn Colors


Ask me quickly and I´d probably say autumn colors are red and orange but this autumn I am having a love affair with red, yellow and sky blue. Aren´t they beautiful together?
