George Gershwin's Birthday is today


After watching movie "Rhapsondy in Blue" I am more in love with George Gershwin than ever before. i have learned to sing his songs and they are my favorites. The movie portrayed a loving man and a loving family and explained, the life of the genius within, who must step apart from the average man. I loved the line that "he had to do it alone" something we might not easily recognize amongst some of the genious's we might know in our own life. Thank You Turner Classic Movies for showing this today on George's birthday.

Do you Agree?

"There comes a time in your life, when you walk away
from all the drama and people who create it.
You surround yourself with people who make you laugh.
Forget the bad, and focus on the good.
Love the people who treat you right, pray for the ones
who don't. Life is too short to be anything but happy.
Falling down is a part of life, getting back up is living."


Blue sky's smiling at me

When was the last time you saw a sky so blue? Isn't it beautiful? This was taken at my Sivinanda Yoga Retreat in the Catskill Mountains. They have many retreats around the world.
We practiced 4 hours of yoga a day; the change that came about in my body was amazing such as sitting in a crossed leg position for 30 minutes. It was impossible on the first day but by the 5th day, there I was just like the other yogi's. Vegetarian Food supreme was divine even though I thought? I would have lost more weight than I did. OK I will take 2 pounds in 5 days!  Simplicity at its best!
