Run it Up the
Flagpole
and See if
Anyone Salutes Day!

Run it Up the Flagpole to See if Anyone Salutes Day
is set aside to allow people to do just that. Be
creative today. Use this day to try and test new ideas
and concepts. Don't limit the ideas to business
applications. In your personal life, try out a new
dress or clothing style, perhaps a different haircut.
Or, maybe buy a new house flag and run it up the
flagpole to see if anyone salutes...or even notices.

Teri Nazron Se Jab Bhi Utar Jaon Main,
Ye Dua Hai Ke Us Roaz Mar Jaon Main
Sadgi Ke Liye Ji Rahi Hoon Magar,
Aaina Tu Bane Tu Sanwar Jaon Main,
Teri Nazron Se Jab Bhi Utar Jaon Main,
Ye Dua Hai Ke Us Roaz Mar Jaon Main
Ghar Se Nikli Hoon Aanchal Ka Parcham Liye
Ab Ye Mumkin Nahin Hai Ke Dar Jaon Main,
Teri Nazron Se Jab Bhi Utar Jaon Main,
Ye Dua Hai Ke Us Roaz Mar Jaon Main,
Sharm Ki Mere Pairon Main Zanzeer Hai,
Phir Bhala Kaise Had Se Goozar Jaon Main,
Teri Nazron Se Jab Bhi Utar Jaon Main,
Ye Dua Hai Ke Us Roaz Mar Jaon Main
Mera Katil Pukare Agar Pyar Se,
Khud Liye Haath Main Apna Sar Jaon Main,
Teri Nazron Se Jab Bhi Utar Jaon Main,
Ye Dua Hai Ke Us Roaz Mar Jaon Ma

Jonathan and Randy were hiking buddies and
on this one day in the woods Randy is bitten
on the rear end by a huge rattlesnake. Ok,
Jonathan says "I'll run to town for a doctor."
Jonathan runs as fast as he can for 10 miles
to a small town and finds the town's only doctor,
who is busy delivering a baby.

Doc says "I can't leave now, I’m busy!"
"But here's what you can do. Take a pocket knife,
cut a little 'x' where the bite is, suck out all the
poison and then spit it on the ground."

"Well what did the doctor say?"

REUSING ENVELOPES FROM
CHRISTMAS CARDS
CHRISTMAS CARDS
If you have been lucky enough to receive
those beautiful Christmas cards, don't be
so quick to throw away the envelopes.
In my life the number of cards I receive
varies from year to year, as well as how
many cards I mail. I have noticed because
of the economy, and the price of stamps,
many are not doing cards like in previous
years. The ones you do receive can save
you in days to come.

Cards come in lots of different sizes whether
we pick them up at the drug store, the dollar
store or post office. It is very noticeable the
paper on these has gotten thinner to save
money in production. The more expensive
ones are thicker. Before I throw away the
envelopes from the cards I look see if I can
remove the return address, if they use the
self adhesive ones or if I can cover it my own.

Same thing with where your address is written,
it usually can easily be covered and
readdressed. Not every card will arrive in a
reusable envelope however, but most do.
They take up little room to keep, but saves
so much money when you reuse them.

I keep mine in a file with the rest of my mailing
items. I keep a glue stick (can use tape) with
my stamps and other legal envelopes. Don't
throw away any unused cards you may have,
Christmas will be here same time next year.

AIR FRESHENER TIP
When you car auto freshener goes dead,
revive it by putting a few drops of concentrated
candy flavoring oil onto the freshener pad.
Since it is the holiday season, I just put a couple
of drops of peppermint oil on one today,
and cinnamon oil on one in another vehicle.

OTHER USES FOR
CHRISTMAS LIGHTS
Don't pack away the lights. When you pack away
your Christmas decorations, leave out a strand
of clear lights. You can use these to brighten a
room on some of the dull, gray winter days ahead.
There are numerous ways to include these lights

Christmas lights to chase away the winter blahs.
Save an empty wine or sparkling cider glass bottle.
Wash and let it dry completely. Put a strand of lights
(20 lights work well with most bottles) inside of the
bottle. The lights reflect beautifully on the clear or
colored glass bottle. You could also use some type
of clear glass vase instead of a bottle.

Native Americans teach us that the Great Spirit
speaks to us through our animal brethren.
The whale is one animal that we can learn from.
Whales have existed for over 50 million years
and are considered to be record-keepers who
possess knowledge of the past.
speaks to us through our animal brethren.
The whale is one animal that we can learn from.
Whales have existed for over 50 million years
and are considered to be record-keepers who
possess knowledge of the past.
It is through the vibrations of their unique sound
that they release this ancient wisdom to us.
At the same time, their sound carries across
such great distances that whales can enter the
realm of the future where they can acquire
knowledge of what is to come. Every whale sings
a song, and they never repeat the same pattern
when they sing their song. Since whales must be
conscious at all times in order to breathe, they
cannot afford to fall into an unconscious state for
too long. Never completely asleep, their brain has
constant access to the collective unconscious
where all answers lie. Whales float peacefully,
secure in the ocean environment that supports
and sustains them.

You can learn from the wisdom of whales by
remembering to express what’s uniquely yours.
Each of us has a unique “song� or gift to offer
the world. Your song is meant to be sung by you
and heard by others. No one else can sing this
song but you, and your song is medicine for the
healing of the planet. Like whales, you can choose
to access information about the future when you
go into a meditative state. Whales teach us to look
at where we came from and where we are headed.
Knowing that our past helps shape our future,
we can remember to make positive choices
regarding our lives, the environment, and our world.
