The Weather Talk



Ahhh...The winter time and season is upon us in Manhattan. Are you a fan? Adversary? Does your city and region of the world experience this, courtesy of mother earth and our galaxy??

For me, like most items in life feel winter is a mixed bag. By no means, am I a doctor or scientist, yet somehow think the crisp, cool air is refreshing, while the limited sunlight is healthy and preserves our skin. Each person carries their own opinion. One individual's PERFECT weather may contrast distinctivelty with others. Individually, we each view the world, and its weather patterns and seasons differently. The phrase "beauty is in the eye of the beholder" comes to mind. Yet I would translate this to "the perfect weather and season is in the eye of the beholder."

I've joked recently with a few fellow New York City residents and those outside of our busy, competitive, diverse streets, that the winter season was self created by the fashion and retail companies, in order for us as consumers to purchase more coats, scarves, hats, gloves and accessories. Again, a jab and attempt at humor.

A different viewpoint comes from a neighbor, that professed that winter is the way in which New York City, cleanses, freezes and detoxifies itself for the previous and forthcoming seasons? A vaild point as well!

Either way, just a thought and viewpoint, as happiness, life, balance, prosperity and all continue to be strived for. Hope your enjoying your weather day, evening and night.

What does being Open Mindful mean to you???

Image
Liberal and Open Minded to me almost seem to be pseudonyms. I would guess it could be possible to be conservative and open minded, just in my eyes those two ideals seem to be juxtaposed. What in my upbringing and brain, elicits this open minded worldly outlook, and positive, friendly mindset??? It could have either been my parental affluent hippie 60's upbringing or perhaps my University Liberal Arts Education, or yet again my 5 full years of daily life in Manhattan and the mecca that is New York City. What does being Liberal and Open Minded mean to you?? Personally I think of it as being accepting of many different lifestyle choices and varieties. For example, I am pro choice and pro abortion for women before the 2nd trimester. I am pro gay marriage, for both male and female sexes. Being a Free Speech & Born here American, I also believe in the freedom of style, culture, home location, choices in dating, restaurants, music, culture, movies, music and all. Anythi

MORALS.... Who is to Judge your Actions?

Image
As we've discussed recently, each person is individually, physically and intellectually unique. What are your personal MORALS? Do you even have them? Should we, are they necessary? Let's not confuse morals with simply following the LAW. It is understood that the USA is a wonderful, prosperous splendid country with a plethora of freedoms. Of course, we are asked and try our best to faithfully follow our country's law and rules. But what about MORALS? Are you OPEN MINDFUL to morality? Whom is to judge what is right and wrong? Personally I would say just follow the Golden Rule. Simply treat others as you would like to be treated, with respect and kindness. Does having morals induce a better life? Often times, the BEST MOMENTS in my life, have occurred while having fun, living life with NO SHAME, and not upholding to a moral compass. For example, whimsical nights of care-free fun, randomness, friends, and newness. I do believe it is immoral to cheat on a spouse or r

How do we get there? Open Mindful with Transportation?

Image
There are a number of ways, we as fellow humans transport ourselves from one destination to the other. Whether you are going somewhere for a work commute, visiting a friend's place, traveling, or exploring our world, there are a multitude of ways to get there. Let's discuss! Which method of movement is the most economical? efficient? Which mode of transportation is the coolest? the Healthiest? Some obvious transportation examples that come to mind include using a regular car, walking, train, bicycle, subway, plane, moped, motorcycle, cab, bus, boat, pedicab, limousine, hybrid car, the segway, and more I'm sure. Feel free to add on. What is your favorite or preferred method? Recently I asked a client if she minded the windy drive to a particular neighborhood. She proclaimed, it was fair, pleasant, easy going & bearable. Personally, I am an avid believer & fan of walking. It would be my #1 vote for the best transportation method. With walking it is healthy and a
