Births


According to the statistical keepers there are 340,500 births each day in each 24-hour period in the world. About 150 thousand people die worldwide each day. No wonder our population is increasing.

When one of them is in your immediate family, either in birth or passing, it is personal.

In my family we just had a baby boy born to a niece. Arlo is his name. He is a strapping boy fresh from the comfort of the womb and is now embracing the density of life. That’s a tough transition.

Obviously we all went through it in an unknowing or at least a subconscious state that we don’t remember as we get older. Sure, we could go through a hypnosis regression, but truly why would we want to? At some point in life we all learn that we are here so lets get on with it.

I would like to welcome baby Arlo into the world along with the 340,500 other babies around the globe who share his birthday.

Here’s my counsel to all of them.

In life, don’t believe everything you are told or hear.

Love is the only motivator.

Change is the only constant.

Hate is a choice.

Follow your heart.

Be at one with nature.

Look for the beautiful in all things.

Love yourself first, for only then can you love another.

Embrace the basics, but be willing to toss them aside.

You and the other are ONE.
