Finding The Time To Reflect On Life and Make That Small Change
Posted by coolhandluciano on July 10, 2009
Let us begin with a short meditation to face the day for the day will come as it always does without fail;
Today is a fast day for me and what i mean by that is that I will got work and then as soon as I get out I have to catch a flight to NY to visit family what a great feeling. What a great time to ponder on life and to be thankful and grateful for all that you have and spend time with family and your children and wife. There are time in life when you just have to take the time to say I am so thankful and so grateful for being alive. There is an old saying that goes something like this: ( Any day that are above ground is a grate day) I have no idea who wrote that but tat person hit it on the button huh!.
Today I will meditate as I always do and focus on my day and picture a perfect flight from home to NY and also focus on all the good around me and hope to get some sleep on the way as well or get some good reading on the way. We have to remember that as individuals there are a;ways choices to make and roads to take,but if we only meditate on those hard choice for just a few minutes you will find that the right choice will come to you.
People might not agree with you at times or even family will try to tell you that it is a wrong choice but you know what answer yourself this question (Who knows you better then you?) Think about that question for a while and you will smile at first the you will either get to know yourself more which you should anyway because if you do not like that person in the mirror then you need to make some changes within you before anything takes change.
OK to some world news;
This is important to know the health reform and what is going to happen.
Obama: full world economic recovery ‘a ways off’
L’AQUILA, Italy – A lasting worldwide economic recovery “is still a ways off,” President Barack Obama declared Friday, but he also said at the conclusion of a global summit that a disastrous economic collapse apparently has been averted.
Speaking at the end of the Group of Eight summit of major economic powers, Obama said world leaders had taken significant measures to address economic, environmental and global security issues.
He rejected suggestions that the summit fell short of expectations by failing to call for new tough sanctions on Iran for its crackdown on democracy advocates after its disputed presidential election.
“What we wanted is exactly what we got — a statement of unity and strong condemnation,” Obama told a news conference. He said the leaders’ declaration was even more significant because it included Russia, “which doesn’t make statements like that lightly.”
He said world leaders will reevaluate their posture toward Iran at a meeting in Pittsburgh in September of the world’s 20 major industrial and developing economies.
Obama told reporters that leaders “remain seriously concerned about the appalling events of Iran’s presidential election.” He said the world would “take stock of Iran’s progress” and watch its behavior.
Leaders have made clear that for Iran to take its “rightful place” in the world, the country must adhere to international standards and behave responsibility, Obama said.
On a pressing issue back home, Obama acknowledged that his top legislative priority — health care overhaul — had encountered rocky going in Congress during his overseas trip, with opposition building among both Republicans and economically conservative Democrats.
But he said he still hopes to get the measure passed before Congress begins its August recess.
“I’m confident we’re going to get it done,” he said. Asked if his timetable was “do or die,” Obama responded: “I never believe anything is do or die. But I want to get it done by the August recess.”
Obama, six months in office, said he supports a streamlining of summits — the G-8, G-20 and NATO — and attending fewer of those meetings. He said the United Nations is in need of reform, but international summits fill a gap left by a U.N. structure that doesn’t leverage its power as effectively as it could.
A bit more on this issue from another source;
The Rundown
Is Health-Care Reform Inevitable?
By Ben Pershing
Is health-care reform inevitable?
That question has come to the fore in recent days, as President Obama and Democratic leaders on Capitol Hill attempt to navigate a maze full of opposition and entrenched interests to arrive at a reform package. Politics is all about leverage, and for now, the pro-reform forces have it. That’s why so many potential opponents of the White House’s efforts — drug companies, hospitals, moderate Republicans — have been willing to sit down and negotiate on the issue. If health-care reform is inevitable, they’d rather make some sacrifices and have a seat at the table then be caught outside the room when the deal is made.
But what if reform isn’t inevitable? What if all those interest groups look at Obama’s declining poll numbers and the complicated politics of the Senate and decide there is a better than even chance that nothing will pass this year? Then their incentives change, from trying to shift the bill incrementally in their favor to just opposing it outright. Now, no one is reading the reform movement its last rites yet, but each time a new hurdle rises, its advocates get a little more worried.
