Don’t try to own or claim beauty (look but don’t touch) - just appreciate it.
Try to create beauty wherever you go.

“My whole life is a struggle. When I was a child I had leprosy and ulcers. Then I lost my parents. Then I lost my husband. Now I’m involved with tailoring for rest of life...I have to get food for myself, there’s no one to help me. But I don’t want to marry again. If I hadn't had leprosy, then maybe I would be educated and be able to get a job. Life is not joyful.”

North Carolina National Guard Soldiers put their engineering skills to the test at the NCNG’s armory in Butner N.C., July 25. The engineers use their annual training to improve their skills and readiness while upgrading NCNG facilities. “It is with training for them (Soldiers) and it costs less than if we hired someone to do it,” said Tony Ferguson, a retired NCNG Army Colonel and current NCNG contractor.

"As In My Imagination"
-
"Don't store up treasures here on earth, where moths eat them and rust destroys them, and where thieves break in and steal.
Store your treasures in heaven, where moths and rust cannot destroy, and thieves do not break in and steal. Wherever your treasure is, there the desires of your heart will also be.
Your eye is a lamp that provides light for your body. When your eyes are good, your whole body is filled with light. But when your eyes are bad, your whole body is filled with darkness. And if the light you think you have is actually darkness, how deep that darkness is!
No one can serves two masters. For you will hate one and love the other; you will be devoted to one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and Money.
This is why I tell you not to worry about everyday life - whether you have enough food and drink, or enough clothes to wear. Isn't life more than food ad your body more than clothing? Look at the birds. They don't plant or harvest or store food in barns, for your heavenly Father feeds them. And aren't you far more valuable to him than they are?
Can all your worries adda single moment to your life?"
Mathew 6:19-27

JimKitzmiller As self-help advocates we tend to overwhelm ourselves by placing the weight of the world on our shoulders. What can we do about it? Meditation helps for sure. Simplification might be the answer.
My favorite section on the record (so far) : "...this record was produced for your own personal use, to go with you own your own exciting journey. To play this record for a group will be of only temporary help. Make sure you have your own personal copy to play again and again..."
In other words: "We make more money if everyone buys a copy."
Okay, Double-U Tee Eff. This is the 'Sexual Help' section of a Books-A-Million, we just happened to be walking through when I saw.....Psychology? What kind of message are they trying to send?
Designed by Chicago architect Howard Van Doren Shaw in 1917, this neighborhood was created industrialist Clayton Mark. It was a planned community, middle class, with the goal of providing affordable housing, retail and a school. Unfortunately, industry exploded in the area. Refineries, steel, chemical plants. The community is surrounded on all sides. Square blocks have been demolished, the retail cornerstone is abandoned and crumbling (that's where I shot these photos.) Most of the houses are falling apart. Those families that remain, mostly Hispanic, are doing their best to maintain what they have. Difficult, since much is abandoned.
Many are townhouses - one side of the house is abandoned, rotting, roof caved in, while on the other side of the common wall, is a nicely maintained home. Sad, really.

In Osteuropa vollzieht sich seit einigen Jahren eine Besorgnis erregende Entwicklung, die in der westlichen Öffentlichkeit kaum wahrgenommen wird. Ende 2006 gab die Weltgesundheitsorganisation bekannt, dass in Osteuropa und den Nachfolgestaaten der Sowjetunion ca. 1,6 Mio. Menschen mit HIV/Aids leben. Trotz der rapiden Zunahme von HIV-Infektionen sind dort aber Beratung und medizinische Behandlung noch unzureichend. Die Erkrankung ist stark tabuisiert und wird erst seit kurzem auch von einigen osteuropäischen Regierungen als gesundheitliches Problem von vielen Menschen erkannt. Aufgrund von bestehenden internationalen Strukturen und einem Arbeitsschwerpunkt der Aids-Bekämpfung im südlichen Afrika, erfährt Osteuropa noch immer zu wenig Unterstützung.
Da auch das inzwischen erworbene Know-how deutscher Aids-Organisationen und der staatlichen Präventionsstellen nicht in die internationale Zusammenarbeit eingeflossen ist, wurde im April 2001 Connect plus e.V. gegründet. Der gemeinnützige Verein ist von Sozialarbeitern, Ärzten, Psychologen, Pädagogen sowie Betroffenen der Aids-Selbsthilfe und Projektarbeit aus Deutschland ins Leben gerufen worden. Ziel der Arbeit ist es, die Erfahrung und Kompetenz der Aids-Arbeit in Deutschland den Selbsthilfenetzwerken und anderen Nichtregierungsorganisationen in Osteuropa zur Verfügung zu stellen.
Ziele und Programme von Conncet plus sind:
*
Förderung und Durchführung von AIDS-Projekten im In- und Ausland, insbesondere durch den gegenseitigen Austausch von Experten zur Förderung von Erfahrung und Expertise auf den für die Prävention und Versorgung von HIV notwendigen Arbeitsgebieten, sowie durch Fort- und Weiterbildungsprogramme für professionelle und ehrenamtliche Mitarbeiter von AIDS-Projekten zur Stärkung der Selbsthilfe von Menschen mit HIV und AIDS.
*
Förderung von Prävention und Information über HIV und AIDS, insbesondere durch Unterstützung von Initiativen vor Ort, die sich einer sachgemäßen HIV-Aufklärung und politischen Lobbyarbeit zugunsten von HIV-Betroffenen verpflichtet haben.
*
Förderung und Durchführung des gegenseitigen Austauschs von ärztlichem und pflegerischem Fachpersonal sowie die Durchführung von Fort- und Weiterbildungsprogrammen für diesen Personenkreis.
Die Arbeit von Connect plus ist in drei Programmbereiche aufgeteilt, um einen möglichst umfangreichen Know-how-Transfer nach Osteuropa zu sichern.
Listening to the Johan S. Detox-club mix of Twin's Star Wars theme makes me want to embroider my pants. (Is there a selfhelp group for this? Or at least a facebook group?!)
