I’m all alone in this world, she said, 
Ain’t got nobody to share my bed, 
Ain’t got nobody to hold my hand— 
The truth of the matter’s 
I ain’t got no man. 

Big Boy opened his mouth and said, 
Trouble with you is 
You ain’t got no head! 
If you had a head and used your mind 
You could have me with you 
All the time. 

She answered, Babe, what must I do? 

He said, Share your bed— 
And your money, too.

10,000 Free Round-Trip Tickets to Japan

By Akiko Fujita | ABC News Blogs – Wed, Oct 12, 2011

If you’ve ever wanted to visit Japan, this may be your chance.

In a desperate attempt to lure tourists back to a country plagued by radiation fears and constant earthquakes, the Japan Tourism Agency’s proposed an unprecedented campaign – 10,000 free roundtrip tickets.

The catch is, you need to publicize your trip on blogs and social media sites.

The number of foreign visitors to Japan has dropped drastically, since a catastrophic earthquake and tsunami triggered a nuclear disaster at the Fukushima Dai-ichi Power plant in March. Nearly 20,000 people have been confirmed dead, while more than 80,000 remain displaced because of radiation concerns. In the first three months following the triple disasters, the number of foreign visitors to Japan was cut in half, compared with the same time in 2010. The strong Japanese currency has made matters worse.

The tourism agency says it plans to open a website to solicit applicants interested in the free tickets. Would- be visitors will have to detail in writing their travel plans in Japan, and explain what they hope to get out of the trip. Successful applicants would pay for their own accommodation and meals. They would also be required to write a review their travel experiences, and post it online.

“We are hoping to get highly influential blogger-types, and others who can spread the word that Japan is a safe place to visit,” said Kazuyoshi Sato, with the agency.

The agency has requested more than a billion yen to pay for the tourism blitz. If lawmakers approve the funding, Sato says visitors could begin signing up as early as next April.

WORD OF THE DAY....

TALK: Set aside time today or later in the week to just talk. Talk about life, death, sex, men, women, politics, the environment, and everything in between. Talk to your kids and hope the information sinks in!! Talk about how good things are or nonexistent things are. Talk dirty, talk trash, talk in bed, or on the porch. Talk for hours on the phone. What do you wanna talk about??

Good character is more to be praised than outstanding talent. Most talents are, to some extent, a gift. Good character, by contrast, is not given to us. We have to build it, piece by piece -- by thought, choice, courage, and determination. -H. Jackson Brown Jr.

WORD OF THE DAY....

IMAGINE: Today imagine the difference. Focus on the breakthrough. Start seeing yourself in the tranquility that you aspire. Imagine not having the fear to make wanted or needed changes in your life. Imagine that all you need is provided. Imagine living a life that feeds your heart & nourishes your soul. Imagine the people, places, things, or spaces that are an applicable & flourishing part of your existence. Imagine independence. Whether it is financial or personal, perceive it in the now. 

Our duty is to be useful, not according to our desires but according to our powers -H.-Frederic Amiel

WORD OF THE DAY....

TREASURE: Today recognize what you should put the most value on. Do you treasure your time? If so, try not to waste any. If you treasure the sunshine take time to enjoy being outside. Moments & people can not be replicated so treasure them vehemently.  Treasure your parent, partner, professor, student, pet, counselor, doorman, meal, & all that’s in between. Treasure the glow you remit from being happy & healthy. Set a goal to recognize everyday this week one thing you treasure & most of all like no other TREASURE YOURSELF!!

I would never question whether or not you would die for me….What I do question however is if you are willing to live for me -ChyVaughn

WORD OF THE DAY....

BREAK: Today find the energy to make a clean break. Strive to break old patterns & habits that are unproductive. Recognize what you say & will break later & don’t make that vow or promise. Break your cycle of silent shame, abuse, deception, neglect, or violence. Sometimes even deep relationships need broken if you are made of the fact that it will not work. Be sure to recognize harmful breaks. Do not break from positive people or influences. Your heart may break & you may breakdown. Be assertive & continue “Your Process” whether it is short or long, at the end it will be “Your Breakthrough”.

Imagination is more important than  knowledge. For while knowledge defines all we currently know and understand, imagination points to all we might yet discover and create -A Einstein

WORD OF THE DAY....

LEAP: I dare you to JUMP!!!! Go ahead close your eyes and JUMP!!!! Today challenge yourself..Do you know whether you’ll fly or not?? Let go of the concept of failure and stretch beyond your limit. Creating a safety net is fine. However, don’t let it hinder you into believing things aren’t possible. Take a leap of confidence. 

I believe in the necessity for struggle by people at the bottom of any society -F.F. Piven

WORD OF THE DAY....

EXPLORE: Take the time explore places you’ve never explored before. Take a trip to a hidden cave, a new trail, or neighborhood. Explore friendships with people not in your immediate circle. Seize the moment to survey opinions and possibilities. What works for you?? What does not?? Always remember that the need to discover should never end. 

It is the duty of men to judge men only by their actions. Our faculties furnish us with no means of arriving at the motive, the character, the secret self. We call the tree good from its fruits, and the man, from his works. (sermon, October 15, 1826)

    Any fool can criticize, condemn, and complain 
    but it takes character and self control to be

     There is no such thing as a "self-made" man. We are made up of thousands of others. Everyone who has ever done a kind deed for us, or spoken one word of encouragement to us, has entered into the make-up of our character and of our thoughts, as well as our success -G. Matthew Adams

People are like stained glass windows: they sparkle and shine when the sun is out, but when the darkness sets in their true beauty is revealed only if there is a light within -E. Kubler-Ross

Only greatly insolent people establish a religious law which is to be taken for granted by others, which should be accepted by everyone on faith, without any discussion or doubts. Why must people do this -L. Tolstoy

We rely upon the poets, the philosophers, and the playwrights to articulate what most of us can only feel, in joy and sorrow. They illuminate the thoughts for which we only grope; they give us the strength and balm we cannot find in ourselves. Whenever I feel my courage wavering I rush to them. They will give me the wisdom of acceptance, the will and resilience to push on -H. Hayes

Don't wait for the Last Judgment. It happens every day –A. Camus

I’ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel –M. Angelo

Gone…

Never to return again

Slipping through the cracks of the universe

Never before present

As today

Mind forgetting

Brain teasing

Thoughts and remembrances not real

People, places, things

Nouns, verbs, sounds

Clattering clanking louder and louder

Frantic spaces abroad and near

Sweat tears

Blood splattered on sheets and ground

Eyes closed tight

Blocking out lit shadows of fear

HAPPY FRIENDSHIP DAY!!

WORD OF THE DAY....

MAKE: From this day forward focus on making everyday count. Make something with your hands & admire it (i.e. your pet a new home, a pillow, a bookshelf, a pie, a healthy meal, or a new garden). Make the phone call that you’ve been putting off. Make love more often & more sweetly. Make as much money as you want & give away every penny that you don’t. Make a moment together magic. After a falsehood, make up. Make your dreams reality, your passions a success story, & your life your own. Make changes. Make a Fresh Start.

WORD OF THE DAY....

UNCONDITIONAL LOVE: Today honor yourself with the act of unconditional love. Take every opportunity to be open to receive. Take it in like the drink of water that cools your soul. Accept the partner that always opens your door, kisses you in public, and admires your weaknesses and physical imperfections. Accept the partner that reminds you that what they love about you most is you. From the dent in your chin, to the bow in your leg. Accept the unconditional love your children have no matter how great or how imperfect you think you are. Accept the love you receive unconditionally!!

WORD OF THE DAY....

ENVISION: Today focus on what’s in your minds eye. From whom you are, what you’re wearing, what you taste or smell, how you feel & everything in between. Envision your new home. Envision your marathon walk/run. Envision your unborn child. Envision the people you encounter throughout the day being friendlier, peace, that check in your hand, and your version of a Divine Spirit. Envision you walking again or simply accepting that you can find happiness even if you don’t. Envision happy relationships & the influence it has to inspire others. Envision your fears & how they hinder you & what you need to do to change that. Envision harsh realities & the ability that you alone or in a group can turn them into bright existences.

WORD OF THE DAY....

STAND: Today focus on making a stand..What do you stand for?? Make that decision & STAND UP!! Give yourself a chance to have the courage to stand alone if necessary. Stand in front of someone that needs protection. Stand beside your partner in support. You are strong & supple & capable of bending & flexing when the things that give you fear are flying by.

WORD OF THE DAY....

PLANT: Plant a healthy seed. Plant it in the ground, your heart, or your mind. Plant it in someone else to grow understanding, happiness, or bright ideas. Assure that your seeds are properly fertilized & always give them what they need to grow. Be patient & watch them sprout into a bloom of exactness.  

WORD OF THE DAY....

THINK: Do people tell you that you think to hard or over process things?? If there were two sticks in front of you, equal distance at 10ft away, would you walk a mile on smooth ground to get one or 10ft on broken shards of glass?? Taking a little extra time & going a little further may cause you less pain than trying to achieve results quickly. Let’s focus today on thinking before doing. When you don’t think, the outcome has less chance of being favorable.

WORD OF THE DAY....

 THRIVE:  Now that you have survived, step your game up & thrive. Thrive on challenges, attention, love, commitment, friends, good health, & fortune. Today fill yourself with the energy that helps you thrive on the joy of being alive.

WORD OF THE DAY....

DECLINE: Today allow yourself to decline offers especially when you’re overcommitted. Know what your limits are. It is perfectly reasonable to refuse an offer when it’s the wrong thing at the wrong time or if you just don’t want to accept the invitation or task.

WORD OF THE DAY....

REWARD: Today focus on rewarding yourself. Through all you do and give to others you may find satisfaction, but satisfying yourself is very important. Reward yourself for being brave, smart, clear minded, able, beautiful, or just plain happy. No matter how big or small the reward is, the most important thing is it should be just for you!! CONGRATULATIONS. 

WORD OF THE DAY....

 ENCHANT: Focus today on enchanting someone, man or woman. Flutter your lashes. Gaze out the window looking up at the sky with smiling eyes & a slight grin. Be what people can’t quite understand or define. Float through the room or down the street embracing the magic you have to leave people speechless & wondering what it is about you that intrigues them so much.
