Ingredients for a Satisfying Life

I've come to what I call the "ingredients for a satisfying life." They are:
1) Dedicate your life to something you consider worthy.
2) Celebrate your contributions.
3) Have That Which Animates you as your most intimate relationship.
4) Know how to give your attention to what you choose.
5) Keep your word to yourself.

The Power of When

Gifted women and men,
How have you been?
Stuck in a pen?
Now a range-free hen?
Practice yoga and then…
Zen in the den.
Invest in Again.
Instead of in Yen.
Borrow from Big Ben.
Time, for a friend.
Pick up your pen.
Write words that mend,
Inspire, defend,
calm and attend.
Then fly like a wren.
Free of year’s end.
The power of when.
