“There is only one way to happiness and that is to cease worrying about
things which are beyond the power of our will.”
~Epictetus

We all know this person. They agonize over everything. We might
even call them a “worrywart.” They worry about what people might be
saying about them. They worry about the weather ruining an event long
before the event happens. They worry about their future, their children’s
future, the world’s future. They worry about things they cannot possibly
control or influence and it causes them to be unhappy.

There are no certainties in this world. Sometimes you just have to
trust that a higher power will provide the answers you need when the
time comes. Knowing that we have done our best will provide peace and
the opportunity to just relax and enjoy our lives.

Of course, the weather is something else! Just take each day as it comes, make alternative plans as needed and laugh as much as possible when it
rains on your parade.

"Before you speak, ask yourself: Is it kind, is it necessary, is it true, does it
improve the silence.”-- Sathya Sai Baba, Indian guru


Most of us were taught as children that “if you can’t say something
nice about someone, don’t say anything at all.” What happened to that
old maxim?

You might know something to be true, but is it kind or necessary to
repeat it? What kind of damage will you do by speaking? Who will you
hurt? Would it be better just to remain silent?

There’s been a trend lately to believe, and to speak out, on whatever
has been on the Internet without even knowing if the posted information
is accurate. Just as long as it supports our personal beliefs we spout off and
often hurt or offend others by our speech.

Kind, necessary, true... Remember these three simple words and think
before you speak.

“Summer afternoon—summer afternoon; to me those have always been the
two most beautiful words in the English language.” ---Henry James


They are all too short and all too few in Western New York, but
there’s nothing better than a summer afternoon. Those long, lazy
afternoons provide many of the best childhood memories.

Do you remember when summer days never seemed to end?
The beach was at its best and being in the water seemed as natural as
breathing… there were castles to build and dreams to be dreamt…
games lasted until dark and you went to bed tired and a little sunburned
every day.

Don’t waste a minute of the wonderful weather we’ve been having.
Take a break from your regimented life and enjoy some special days. Watch
how children spend their day at the beach and then jump in with both feet!
You’ll be glad you did.
