#WATWB Solar Cooking–Reducing Carbon Footprints
Many challenges in July–continuing into August. Yet here we are with a good news post. A reference to the source of this post is included in a feature on the world’s climate crisis in the delayed first edition of the Eagle Peak Annual. (Formerly a Quarterly) The point for this inclusion is the fact that […]
#WATWB June 2019
Didn’t get the reminder this month, but here’s something for the We Are the World Blogfest–that monthly message of good news. No politics, no crime, no pessimism–just people doing things to make others happier or healthier. Or making the world a better place. Here’s a new one on me, culinary arts therapy. I’ll have to […]
#WATWB Aiding Disabled Pets
Because I once or twice contributed to a Go Fund Me campaign, I occasionally get announcements of success stories. This is one of them that fits nicely within the monthly WATWB post. Gunnar was hit by a truck on February 16th of 2014. . . On that cold winter day in a rural Wisconsin vet […]
The Hidden Spoon
Another one of those phrases that originated from my real home life generated this snippet. Looks like something that could be a short story in the third collection (a few years out; mysteries) after editing and development. Alice had hidden the spoon as she always did. Her special spoon.

Encouraging Words

People who are rooted in the here and now, who are not defeated by their limitations, who don’t compare themselves to others, who confidently advance along their chosen path—such people are happy, such people are truly great.

Daisaku Ikeda
When a tree has been transplanted, though fierce winds may blow, it will not topple if it has a firm stake to hold it up. But even a tree that has grown up in place may fall over if its roots are weak. Even a feeble person will not stumble if those supporting him are strong, but a person of considerable strength, when alone, may fall down on an uneven path.

Nichiren, "Three Tripitaka Masters Pray for Rain" (WND, 598)
To the extent that we love others, we will be loved. To the extent that we work for others’ happiness, we will enjoy protection and support. This is the law of cause and effect.

Daisaku Ikeda
The energy of creativity is like a fire that transforms all kinds of obstacles into opportunities for dynamic new growth and advancement.

Daisaku Ikeda
More valuable than treasures in a storehouse are the treasures of the body, and the treasures of the heart are the most valuable of all. From the time you read this letter on, strive to accumulate the treasures of the heart!

Nichiren, "The Three Kinds of Treasure" (WND, 851)
