I watched her skillful hands do the seemingly impossible. From a cold, moist lump of clay emerged a beautiful and functional piece of art.

From the wheel to the drying rack to the kiln to the art show or sales shelf - the process never ceased to amaze me. But what shocked and surprised me even more was what she did with the inevitable broken or damaged piece.

November 19, 2009
In the morning, before everyone starts their day, a majority of them would gaily sing in the shower.

November 19, 2009

24. Favorite Flowers
November 19, 2009
People ask me all the time, "What does my favorite flower say about me?"
The answer is: it depends.
The general intention you hold as you go through your day largely will determine the flowers you notice and are drawn to.
If you hold an intention for a long while, you may have this repeated attraction to a particular flower that will become a "favorite" to you. If you seek upliftment, you will be drawn to flowers that uplift (which is pretty much all flowers).
If you seek better health, you will be drawn to flowers that will help you find your way back to health.

Here are some golden rules to follow when you work at home:
