You have no idea what their journey is all about. 13.      If a relationship has to be a secret, you shouldn't be in it. 14.      Life is too short for long pity parties. Get busy living, or get busy dying. 15.      You can get through anything if you stay put in today. 16.  A writer writes. If you want to be a writer, write. 17.  It's never too late to have a happy childhood. But the second one is up to you and no one else. 18.  When it comes to going after what you love in life, don't take no for an answer. 19.  Burn the candles; use the nice sheets; wear the fancy lingerie. Don't save it for a special occasion. Today is special. #SharedSpacesWithShilpa

If you’re anything like me… Sometimes you just "DO" things without questioning the WHY behind it. It feels a little like this - • You’ve been tapped for a leadership role in your company… but the job itself feels a lot like herding cats. • You’ve agreed to host another business dinner… but now you’re missing your child’s music performance. • You’ve been elected to chair the school’s fundraiser… but the task itself has you simmering with discontent. • You’ve been asked to represent the company at a conference in Orlando… but it’s on your own vacation time. • You’ve agreed to host a holiday party for your whole family… but you’re already dreading the prep work (and clean up). When you take the time to be more intentional about what you do and why, you can… TAKE YOUR POWER BACK and shape experiences to align with your true desires and core beliefs.

Lessons learned from Mr. D: 1. Tell your family how much you love them multiple times a day. 2. Keep the door of your home open to friends and family for a great meal and cold drink. 3. Keep the pool ice cold, not sure why but it's super memorable. 4. Coach and volunteer in your town. 5. Always be willing to drive kids home after practice, regardless of how far from your home they live. 6. Love and respect your country and neighbors no exceptions Happy Memorial Day!

Lots of Mouths. Lots of Words. Marie’s cakes were perfect, but her profits? A train wreck. That’s when her gal pals whispered: ‘Proceed, darling… they know stuff.’ What happens next... #ProceedingWithProceed #WordOfMouth #MadWomenVibes #VintageMarketing #ProceedSuccess #MarketingGenius #LetUsProceed

*Do not pluck the yellow leaves on the branch,* *One day they will fall by themselves.* *Sit with the elders of the house, talk,* *One day they will automatically become silent.* *set them free,* *let it spend,* *Let live as you please,* *One day they will leave everything for you.* *Don't hit them again and again, they repeat the same things,* *One day you will yearn to hear their voice, when they become silent.* *Take their prayers as much as you can,* *bowing down, touching feet,* *One day they will automatically become images,* *Then there will be no point in apologizing.* *Don't say anything to them in front of others, let them eat, at will,* Then behold, they will not even come to eat,* No matter how many times you celebrate their anniversary.*

Following some last-minute cancellations, we have a few tickets still available for this event at RMIT this evening. Professor Mazin Qumsiyeh is part-way through a tour of Australia speaking about issues of vital importance, not only for #Palestine, but for all humanity. The ongoing #genocide in #Gaza, which this week entered a terrible new phase with the IDF bombardment and invasion of #Rafah, which until now had largely been spared the carnage, opens the door to unimaginable levels of violence and suffering for the defenseless civilian population, most of whom are women and children. Register for tonight's event here - https://lnkd.in/gSvahbwf Beyond the immediate catastrophe of Gaza, citizens of the so-called Western democracies are being sleep-walked and propagandized into World War 3. For anyone who's been following the news about the #Ukraine #Russia war in the last few days, that is no exaggeration, with #NATO countries threatening to send in troops and Russia responding by emergency live #nuclear weapons exercises. Australia is fully on-board with this agenda driven by the US and Britain. Protestors are being demonised and smeared as #antisemites because they - we - dare to raise our voices in opposition to the genocide and the rush to war. The role of the universities as a central part of a military-industrial-academic complex of 'hyper-militarisation' has and is being exposed by the student researchers at the #antigenocide and #antizionist student encampments - and we owe them all an enormous debt for this work and their courage in standing up to this terrible drive to war. I encourage everyone to become informed about these issues and take a stand - because we are rapidly drifting to a global war that will leave no future for anyone, sustainable, green or otherwise.
