We really can do anything if we want to, we just have to want it bad enough!

As a New Year begins...



~May your hair, your teeth, your face-lift, your abs, and your stocks not fall and may your blood pressure, your triglycerides, your cholesterol, your white blood count and your mortgage interest not rise.
~ May you get a clean bill of health from your dentist, your cardiologist, your gastroenterologist, your urologist, your proctologist, your podiatrist, your psychiatrist, your plumber, and the Internal Revenue.

~ May you find a way to travel from anywhere to anywhere during rush hour in less than an hour, and when you get there may you find a parking space.

~ May this Yom Tov, find you seated around the dinner table, together with your beloved family and cherished friends, ushering in the Jewish New Year ahead.~ May what you see in the mirror delight you, and what others see in you delight them.~ May the telemarketers wait to make their sales calls until you finish dinner, may your check book and your budget balance, and may they include generous amounts for charity.

~ May you remember to say "I love you" at least once a day to your partner, your child, and your parent(s).

~ May we live as intended, in a world at peace with the awareness of the beauty in every sunset, every flower's unfolding petals, every baby's smile and every wonderful, astonishing, miraculous part of ourselves.

~ May you be blessed with every happiness, great health, peace and much love during the next year, and all those that follow. Amen~

With love,
Anita, Ilana & Josh

We never know how one simple caring action can impact the lives of many creating a domino effect, I like to call it "The Power of One".

Refreshing, well thought of, creative and inspiring.

It's Not This, It's That


"Knowing what to do, has not made me wiser.
Knowing what to say, has not made me smarter.


Getting what I want, has not made me richer.
Giving what I give, has not made me poorer.

Suffering so much pain, has not made me sadder.
Eating what I love, has not made me fatter.

It's embracing my pain, and being relentless.
It's following my dreams, and not holding resentments.

It's paying with love, and opening my heart.
And staying strong when all fails, and never falling apart."

A Celebration of Love




Today is Valentine's Day, a day chosen to "Celebrate Love" and though we would all like to have someone special to celebrate with that may not always be the case.

I remember when I was in elementary school, I used to look forward to this day; in those days we had to give cards to everyone in our class and I'd spend days preparing for that. I'd give the best cards to those friends I loved the most, I tried not to be too obvious with the boy I had a crush on at the time, but he would get the best lollipop, and I left my least favorite for those I didn't care for that much, but I'm sure that especially those who didn't expect it felt loved.

I remember running home at the end of the day to read each card I had received with exciting anticipation and how surprised I was at how some of my friends felt that they could not otherwise express.

So why not tell your family, friends, co workers, neighbors or anyone in your life that you care about them and make them feel as special as you would like to feel, And while you're at it, don't forget to 'LOVE YOURSELF'. When we love ourselves there is more of ourselves to give away.

I wish you all a Happy Valentine's Day every day!
