		<description><![CDATA[Yes Angel! And the good news is that Autumn for me is a time of self reflection-a bit more inner. I am just this week looking at how to get quieter and how to  look more closely at what needs to be different and more supportive.I like to remember that we really do have choices.

		<description><![CDATA[Great Awarenesses, Maureen!  I see all of those aspects functioning in my own life as well :)

I too, have paid the price of dwindling self care during the busy summer days.  
It&#039;s interesting how a little self-neglect can create a disproportionate expectation for what is really needed to fit the bill.  I found a few minutes here, a short walk there, a soak in the tub were all great options to begin the recalibration process, restoring hope and a sense of the free-flowing giving self that everyone (including me) loves to experience!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[What a wonderful post.  I think too often others get hung up on material success and then miss out on the &quot;simple&quot; things.  I know for me, I&#039;ve made choices so that I can live a &quot;simpler&quot; life by selling the amazing car to have a writing cottage built... to shopping 2nd hand stores so  I can enjoy more of what I love to do... spend time in nature, spend time with my pets, spend time with family and friends. Some may think I am going without &quot;things&quot; but they are just that, &quot;things.&quot; What I get from my other simpler things brings me more rewards than I could ever express adequately in words. Though the word JOY comes to mind and I often wonder how many have true joy in their lives.]]></description>
