Tools For Living a Truly Inspired Life
There is a time for work and a time for play. This page is dedicated to the time for play part. The time to replenish your body, mind, and soul after a hard day at work, the gym, or wherever you may need a break from, so that you too can live an inspired life. These are the things that truly inspire me. So relax, take a load off, and enjoy.
But, before you read any further, if you like to listen to good music while you surf or work online and you haven't checked out Pandora.com, you don't know what you are missing. You can create any kind of radio station you want there. So very cool. Try it out! Get on over to

Quaint Quotes
Don't you just love when you read something that's so simple, yet poignant, that it makes you tear up and think, "Wow, I wish I had written that." Or maybe its so deep yet obvious that it makes you go, “Ahaa! Now I get it!” Or maybe…it just sets you back on a positive or grateful track when you found yourself getting a bit off track. Whatever the case, I love to read things that speak to me that way!
It happens to me usually daily. I read so many good things and there is so much wonderful material out there. I thought it might be an appropriate way for me to start the Inspired Life page.
TUT.COM "NOTES FROM THE UNIVERSE"
So, here goes! I am going to start this out with my all-time favorite way to start each day. Every morning after I fire up my computer, I always go straight to my e-mail and read my "Note from the Universe." It is something you can sign up for amongst other very cool stuff.
Mike Dooley is an amazing, forward-thinking, inspirational soul who comes up with these things, as well as a whole slew of other stuff, as you will see if you go to his very fun and different site. I get these sent straight to my e-mail, Monday through Friday. And I truly do miss them on the weekends. They are that special. My note today said: When you understand, Linda, that your disappointment in another's behavior or choices always stems from their immaturity, or yours, rather than their unkindness, or yours, it becomes much harder not to keep skipping through life, giddy with joy, smelling the flowers.
Moreover, when you understand that with enough maturity on your end you can always find peace in all of your relationships, it becomes much harder not to run down the street kissing everyone you meet on both cheeks.
Kiss, kiss - The Universe
Wisdom, Linda, is the real deal.
Now, isn’t that too cool? They are all so excellent! If you want a fun and thought-provoking way to begin your day, this is it!
Okay, here is another one that I just got today that I absolutely loved so much I had to post it here immediately. Here goes:
What if the word "work" was changed to "dance-with- life," Linda? And instead of it being viewed as an alternative to fishing or a way of "paying your dues," it was seen as a chance to meet a parade of new friends, discover your own untested potentials and unpolished gifts, and open avenues for abundance to come pouring into your life?
Yeah, I bet lottery sales would plummet.
The Universe
Not to mention the office parties, donut runs, and "free" pens, Linda... cha, cha, cha!

ANNOUNCEMENT: COOL NEW WEBSITE DISCOVERY!! CHECK IT OUT AT
Charityfocus.org
Okay, peeps! This is just going too far! I can't believe we've gotten so lazy as a society, always driving and never walking, that it has spread rampant into our "best friends." See the look of total "caught with the hand-or should I say paw-in the cookie jar" on this mutt's face? Lucky I just happened to have my camera with me to catch this insipid behavior on film. And to think this DOG had the nerve to park right outside my gym. As if it could hide behind those tinted windows or something.
That's it for now. More good stuff to come soonly! Peace out!
