For 2022 and the many days thereafter. Good wards are kind, Great words can lift up a mood, or motivate one in a new direction. Here are some cowboy and cowgirl quotes, sayings, and wisdom. It’s Rodeo time in Texas!
Words that soak into the heart are whispered, not yelled.
Don’t judge people by their relatives.
If you don’t participate, you’ll lose your touch. A good run is better than a bad stand.

Me: We have Goldilocks with us, today. Her name is being used to describe what earth scientists call the “Goldilocks zone.” This is the area near a hot light source that it is not too close (too hot) and not too far away (too cold) from a nearby land surface for liquid water to exist there. It means the distance is just right for life.
However, without this just-right zone, the theories about the universe in which we exist would be very different. Let’s talk to Goldilocks about it. Hello and welcome!
Goldilocks: Great to be with you today! Okay. Could we start with Heliocentric theory? It seems this theory[1] is predominant in the conversations about planets moving around a star in elliptical pathways. Our star,

This may happen to you when wearing sandals or tennis shoes, but it mostly happens when wearing really nice shoes for an important meeting.
At your desk during the work week, there comes a sudden change in lunch plans. You are not able to take a car or have friends drive you to that favorite restaurant. But, of course, the nearest eatery is just a short walking distance from the building. Delivery fee? Not today.
Initiate visualization: Get-to-the-restaurant route by the shortest distance to avoid on-coming cars, water hazards, rocks, nails, and holes.

In life, it is NOT a large pool of customers/ followers/ likes/ or views that have the greatest value in our negotiations.

Yes. Physically, morally, spiritually, emotionally and financially, the people we make all that money for are our loved ones.
Are we doing those special, little things that wow our business customers? You know, we thrill them with those just-so touches that

What we think, we hear in our heads,
from waking in our beds
to returning to the homesteads
