This month, we begin our New Year with a discussion on starting again with experience!

We’re wishing you all the very best during this holiday season. Love and many blessings!

Today, the topic of telling the truth is on our minds . . . What does it mean to tell the truth? Quite honestly, this isn’t a simple question to answer and definitely not one that can be answered with blanket statements such as, “You must always tell the truth!”

We hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday. Please be safe, enjoy your family and friends, and know we are thinking of you!

We hope you are well. We sure do miss gathering together IN PERSON with all of you! Thankfully, this past Saturday, we DID gather with the attendees of our very first Courageous Leadership workshop, and it was truly a great day! 

The topic we want to talk about today is the idea of Living in Integrity. In our book, 5 POINTS TO PEACE, we define this term as: Your word is a true reflection of what is inside of you and you are honest.

You all know us pretty well. So, you know we encourage everyone to try to respond to the happenings in life in a kind and loving manner.

We have been busy planning 2021. What courses do we want to offer? What new groups are we ready to start? Over the next few weeks we will be sharing our decisions – and it already looks like 2021 is going to be another year filled with teaching and learning.

We hope you are all staying well and are finding time to enjoy the gorgeous autumn weather we are having this year. We have been busy developing our newest program: COURAGEOUS LEADERSHIP!

Yesterday, during our Sunday talk, we asked everyone to think of what people, situations, and events have been their greatest teachers. That is something for all of us to consider. None of us have gone through life alone, and each of us has been impacted by different people, situations, and circumstances.

With all that is happening in our country, communities, neighborhoods, families, and personal relationships, we want us all to take this week to ask ourselves: Am I Being Kind?

Do you need a little motivation today? Are you wondering if the goal you have set out for yourself is one you can realize? Well . . . sometimes you have to add a little fun into the equation!

Today, we’d like to simply share our gratitude for each and every one of you. If you could see the concern, generosity, thoughtfulness, appreciation we receive from all of you, you would never doubt that this world of ours is filled with love in all its various forms.

A few weeks ago, we told you about the different courses we will be teaching at Western Colorado Community College through their Community Education Center. REGISTRATION IS NOW AVAILABLE! Some of these courses begin SOON, so if you want to be included, don’t wait!

During our time away, we encourage you to focus on GRATITUDE! The last two paragraphs of Lesson 195 will help.

We have a question for you today: How much of your day is filled with meaningful activity? Most of your day? Only during your work? Only on certain days or when you are with certain people? None of it?

Yesterday, during our Sunday gathering, the topic of studying and practicing came up, and we’ve been thinking about it since. Actually, this is a subject the two of us talk about together regularly because we live in a world of the quick fix, instant gratification, and overnight success.

We wanted to let you know about the courses we are offering soon at Western Colorado Community College (WCCC) as part of their Community Education Center. Utilizing WCCC allows for a greater number of in-person attendees with social distancing as well as a Zoom option. ALL of the course we are teaching at WCCC have both an in-person and Zoom option.

The motto for us this week is REST AND EASE. As we mentioned last week, we have been very busy setting everything up in the Yellow Room, making it a combined coaching/workshop space. Now that it is finished, we are making this a week of moving a little slower and prioritizing some much-needed relaxation.

Our news this week is that we have moved out of our coaching space and are now coaching and hosting our classes in the Yellow Room and on Zoom.
