" I will tell you what I have learned about myself.
For me, a long five or six mile walk helps.
And one must go alone and every day."
 
Brenda Ueland

Writer Brenda Ueland was 94 when she died in 1985. Walking kept her health and vigorous all her life. (It also gave her time alone each day to think and dream.) Is exercise a regular part of your life ?

Trees dosen’t like her hair. Melanie feels too fat. Henry hates his glasses. Robin wishes he got better grades. Tese kids are always picking on themselves. Maybe they don’t say anything out loud. But inside it’s pick, pick, pick. What about you? Do you pick on yourself? What would happen if you stopped?

" If you can walk, you can dance.
If you can talk, you can sing. "

A saying from Zimbabwe

Life is full of boring chores and routines. But even the most ordinary actions are transformed when you do them with a joyful touch. If you can get out of bed, you can say "Good Morning" to people around you. If you can open your mouth to brush your teeth, you can smile at yourself in the mirror. Even if you can have to fake it at first, try it and see what happens.
