On Wednesday night, September 7, 2011, President Barack Obama delivered a speech before Congress proposing a plan for job growth in America, in order to stimulate the economy. He proposed an "American Jobs Act" aimed to create more jobs in the education and construction sectors, cut taxes for small businesses who hire new workers and make regulatory changes. For those of you who had the opportunity to watch it, what did you think about the President's plan? Do you think his plan will be accepted by both the Democrats and Republicans? Please share your thoughts.

911: Remembering Our Loved Ones
Ten years ago this year New York City was stricken by an unexpected event. On September 11, 2001 many people either lost their lives or were physically or emotionally affected when the World Trade Center was slammed into by United Flight 175, which caused it to burn and eventually crumble. My thoughts and prayers go out to all of the family and friends of the many individuals who were impacted this tragic event. While this event occurred ten years ago, to many of us, it seemed as if it was only yesterday.
In honor of my readers and in remembrance of those who have lost their lives in the September 11th tragedy, I ask that you say a prayer, or do something kind for your family member, friend or neighbor this week.
You are welcomed to share your thoughts about how 911 has impacted or changed or life. Be blessed and know that I'm just A Touch Away..
Finding Peace In A Stressful World
Living in the midst of an ever failing global economy, one can't help but to feel stressed out and uneasy. Living in a world of uncertainty brings forth much unrest and many people are searching for peace and tranquility to get through a rough day and/or week. I've discovered that the following methods helps me to relieve stress and to obtain joy and peace:
1. Prayer/Meditation/Attending Church
2. Spousal Intimacy
3. Soaking in a warm bath for about 20 minutes with a glass of wine
4. Going for a 30 minute walk in a large park while watching nature
5. Journaling
6. Dancing
7. Listening to smooth jazz or light classical music
What do you do to create peace in your life? I welcome your suggestions.
