Bottom line: when you have more options there can be less stress. The flip side is that it takes more time, more consciousness, more energy to discover and create the options And having way too many options can create its own form of stress at the other end of the spectrum. But for now, for today, this episode is about how a parent can give a child a few choices enabling then to be true to their inner quirky self without having to be an ungracious rebel. My friend Stacey is a master and I love watching her parent little Kaile.

For today, happy 699th -- it only comes around once

Wow - Buddy and Susan you are on it! I wondered if the number would mean anything to anyone.

BW does not fit any mold we have found - yet - and we appreciate the love and support we receive from people all around the world.

I am steering clear of most of the mainstream news and glad to show that life does go on. There is still beauty. And Lexi continues to chase her ball with the same enthusiasm!

You are right options give freedom and on the flip side...you can do anything but you can't do everything.
Aloha,

Rox, after reading your comment (and thanks for sharing) I am reminded of the musical lyrics:

How deep is the ocean?
How high is the sky?

Likewise, BW refreshes souls around the world, and that is something equally beyond measure. BW is that cool, refreshing sip of water in the day, regardless of circumstances -- the opposite of irritants bombarding our lives anymore. Assuredly, the silent "thank yous" and love continually flow back in your direction. Life IS good!!
