The Frog Prince – Reviews

  

 

So Mia did it. She was not afraid at all. However she was distracted by the presence of the audience and made it obvious she was looking for us  and lit up when she spotted where we were sitting. That made the audience laugh. You can see in the pictures I will post below. I was impressed with the older children and the actress that played the Frog. She sang very well and professional. The songs and moral of the story, which was not the same as the movie. It was about judging others by the way they look on the outside. How not taking the time to see what is on the inside. In this case the Frog is really a Prince, and wanted to know if others loved him for who he was rather than his position and what he could do for them.  

A question you might have even asked yourself. We know all to well that society judges and responds to us based on appearance. Evident in our spending millions on magazines, clothes, and beauty products and regimens to look better. There is nothing wrong with that in and of itself. I believe everyone should strive to be their best inside and out. Everyone has beauty. We see what some attention and money can do on those makeover shows. Clean teeth and hair does go a long way.

However when we as a people get so obsessed with the outside that we disregard others because they don’t measure up in appearance is not only sad but we loose out on people that can be such an asset to our lives if we only bothered to look past appearance. We all get older and loose a certain amount of physical youth and appeal. That is a hard lesson to find out. That people only paid attention or wanted us for our looks, position or money.

I am guilty through out my life of that mindset as well. Now I am getting older and am starting to feel that attention fading. Does that mean I don’t matter or will not be seen as valuable to others ? Hmmmmmmmmm just a thought.

One positive aspect of being in online communities and social media, is we really get to see whats in people hearts and minds without judging their appearance immediately. I have had the experience of interacting with people and then when I found out what they looked like was so surprised. Why? Because I or even them would never in the real world had interacted because of preconceived ideas of what they or I was about. I already liked them and knew what they were about and then it was OK. So now I am more aware to really listen to everyone first and respond to them based on what is in their heart first then how I feel about what I see on the outside. This is the lesson the Princess in this story had to learn as well.   

Back to how Mia did…She did her best….pulled through and had the audience laughing when she said her lines and for being her cute self. We are all proud of her. She made friends and had tons of fun through this experience. All the kids knew her name…and where very positive and encouraging to her. I am glad we all had this experience.   

Here are some shots and videos of the nights events.   

  

 

We are all a Buzzing – Performance Nite of the Frog Prince

Performance Nite !

I am about to leave and go see my daughter make her acting depute in the Frog Prince. Mia is only 6 but she got one of the speaking roles.

As I alluded to in earlier posts…I had a concern she would not be focused…and Tuesday she had some issues with staying focused that where

brought to my attention. No surprise there…however her energy and vivaciousness was what got her the part and they acknowledged that.

We worked on focusing her energy into doing her best job and saying her lines. The next day she was spot on…plus giving her some omega 3′s to

help with focus didn’t hurt and eliminating most of her sugary snacks.

We went last night to watch as the cast did some improve for us. No problem hearing my daughter…loud and clear.

Her character the FLY is the cute one…and will have the audiance laughing each time she appears. We have been dissecting the kids movies and there is one

in each. The monkey in Aladdin, flounder in Ariel, the Dragon in Mulan, the donkey in shriek and the list goes on. I didn’t realize it was a part of the recipe.

To bad we all don’t have a side kick that can help lighten us up and put our situations in perspective in supporting us.

 

I am sure she will do well….and as long as she tries thats fine with me. I give her a thumbs up for having the courage to do it at all. I even think her brother is

impressed. I can’t wait to see her in costume.

Well off to the show……here are some pictures I can share for now.

                       

Mia is jumping for joy…..stay tuned

Shoo Fly don’t bother Me…….buzza buzza buzz…Oops !

 

So I go and pick my daughter up after her first day at acting camp. She got the role of THE FLY……….now that is a step up for me…I thought she might be a flower or blade of grass if she was lucky. She has about 8 lines.

She felt important. The other kids were saying…”I wish I was the Fly.” Too funny. Everything is relevant. They get to be Venus fly traps, swamp creatures, or ducks. She gets to flit around exactly like she does at home…..and say buzza, buzza, buzz…oops ! As the fly traps try to capture her.  

She has three other lines. They are performing THE FROG PRINCE on Friday after only five days. This is at the Performing Arts Center in the Hampton’s. They have many celebrities perform on this stage. It is a beautiful theatre inside. Real Costumes. It is not a typical child’s camp play or school play. I have to say I got a buzz coming thru the rear entrance and walking past the stage. You can feel the creative energy and possibilities from all the performances before.

When she saw me……the teacher said she did Great and she drew designs for the Princess Costume. Hmmmmm a costume designer. There are so many outlets in the arts to be expressive and involved in. I just am pondering…wondering how her life will unfold. She was really buzzed………..lol……..and animated telling us how the day went. My husband was so effected by our enthusiasm he said…”I want to take her tomorrow”. He called me as soon as he dropped her off. He said……….she really is where she belongs ..EVERYONE knew her name already and he heard them say “Mia is the Fly”. She got right up on stage when asked and participated in the lesson and activities. This invovles saying in various ways on Q … ”I want Candy”. Excited,Angry, disappointed. The energy the older kids put out on demand is palatable. Acting takes a lot of energy, and boy does my daughter have that. I ask her to give me some so I can keep up with her….LOL  What strikes me and my husband is Mia is known to us as the Dragon-FLY. She was born on the day of the Dragonfly. God sent me signs before she even was conceived of Dragonflies. Maybe it isn’t as exotic…but it moves quickly and freely…and that is our Mia. Tomorrow the class is doing an improv so I can’t wait to see what she  chooses to do. I will take some video to share. As a side note…..the little girls that where crying were not there. Thank God their parents realized you can’t force someone to go against what doesn’t come naturel.

 

You know it is a funny thing……..when you see a person……no a soul……….right where they are suppose to be…there is something magical…Divine about seeing a person in the present experiencing their purpose or BE-ingness. Think of a Mother holding her newborn and at that moment all is what should be. Or how about singers and entertainers. We go crazy for them. Why because in that moment we witness a soul doing exactly…no BE-ing exactly what they are. The Divine flowing thru them.

Think Michael Jackson on stage.

Olympic Athletes.

What about American Idol?

When we witness someone auditioning that is totally out of their purpose or BE-ing we cringe and become uncomfortable for them. They swear they were born to do this, but is so obvious to us…A+++ for trying…but really no you are not. Maybe with more training you never know. That is why we needed Simon to tell them and free them…..on the other hand when we see someone that steps up and performs well with confidence…the feeling that YES this is what they should be doing. We want to cheer for them to keep going. Aren’t we really cheering  for ourselves. Think about it. We honor singers, actors, athletes, politicians because they stepped up into their purpose. They stepped over the doubt and fear, whether they had supportive parents or not. We honor them because we wish we had the chutzpah to do it too. They are just more visible and obvious to the rest of us. But there are Firemen, Teachers, Doctors, Policemen…many people we witness moving in their BE-ingness. How about you?

Also I gotta flip the coin……..how are you supporting or encouraging the people in your life. Family, Friends, your children to step up into their gifts and talents and be-ingness. Don’t be the kind of person that is jealous towards those that reach for their dreams and hold them back because you did not. Be aware of your uncomfortable feelings hearing or seeing someone else’s BE-ingness. I have to do this too. Sometimes people irk me for no apparent reason. Now I know and am aware enough to start asking myself why? What do I feel I lack that they just make it more pronounced to myself. We all know misery loves company. I don’t want to be in the misery club. How do I get out of the misery club if I am  in it…..well  I have to cheer on the people that touch my life. Who take the steps to BE and live the Divine thru them. If I attempt and struggle for myself…I can now see a path forged for me to follow and do the same, if I keep my eyes on the ones succeeding at their BE-ingness.  Pay it forward…but also PUSH it forward for others and I promise you will PULL it Forward for yourself.

 I don’t want to say at the end of my life…………WHAT IF ! ………………….But instead sing with my daughter Buzza,Buzza, Buzz….without the OOPS !

Share below if you are or if you would like to BE…and let us encourage and support you.

To Be or Not to Be……

 

Hamlet:
To be, or not to be, that is the question:
Whether ’tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune,
Or to take arms against a sea of troubles
And by opposing end them. To die—to sleep,
No more; and by a sleep to say we end
The heart-ache and the thousand natural shocks
That flesh is heir to: ’tis a consummation
Devoutly to be wish’d. To die, to sleep;
To sleep, perchance to dream—ay, there’s the rub:
For in that sleep of death what dreams may come,
When we have shuffled off this mortal coil,
Must give us pause—there’s the respect
That makes calamity of so long life.
For who would bear the whips and scorns of time,
Th’oppressor’s wrong, the proud man’s contumely,
The pangs of dispriz’d love, the law’s delay,
The insolence of office, and the spurns
That patient merit of th’unworthy takes,
When he himself might his quietus make
With a bare bodkin?Who would fardels bear,
To grunt and sweat under a weary life,
But that the dread of something after death,
The undiscovere’d country, from whose bourn
No traveller returns, puzzles the will,
And makes us rather bear those ills we have
Than fly to others that we know not of?
Thus conscience does make cowards of us all,
And thus the native hue of resolution
Is sicklied o’er with the pale cast of thought,
And enterprises of great pitch and moment
With this regard their currents turn awry
And lose the name of action

 

Today starts the first day of Acting Camp that I enrolled my 6 year old Mia into. She has a very active imagination, sings constantly to herself, in the bathroom,bathtub, and outside to our trees. As a singer myself I hear a naturel ability and vibrato emerging. She also acts out scenes during her playtime.Naturally all little girls do this with Barbie dolls. She takes this play beyond. I hear her while in the bathroom, her bedroom, and up and down our staircase for hours. We hear all the voices and parts being played out. She went thru the Alvin and chipmunk phase. Thank God that is over.

So when I was notified about  the Acting Camp, I had to enroll Mia to see if there truly is a natural talent. Or is it just a Mothers adoration for her little girl and seeing talent in everything she does. If it truly is a natural gift or talent that can be developed into an avenue for her to pursue I would like to give her the support and the opportunity to do so. If she doesn’t like it or would rather just play alone or in private that is ok with me.

We all have abilities, and talents that come thru us as children. Unfortunately many of us didn’t have an adult with a trained eye or ear to really see the potential and develop it further. Sad to say that I am personally bothered by the thoughts…….What if ? ……….it feels like an annoying mosquito at times.

What if I had gotten acting or singing lessons at an early age. I made Allstate and performed over a weekend in choir which was like boot camp. As an adult I  took voice lessons for several years. I was the lead female singer during Sunday morning worship for many years. I even enrolled in a Acting class at the Local Theatre. I was 32 but struggled with thoughts of self consciousness, and doubt that my ship had sailed  rearing its ugly head playing over in my mind. I faired pretty well and did a killer monologue that shocked me when I performed it for the class. I played the main character in Agnes of God. Not a happy role. I was surprised at my depth of despair that emerged while in character. It felt like I was listening and watching someone else in my own head and body. A transient experience to say the least.  However life and work called and I did not continue with the classes.

Never the less I was  glad I took the gumpshun to pursue the WHAT IF for myself. To see if it would ignite a latent talent asleep within me.  I still was haunted with the mind chatter that this isn’t going to go anywhere so I let it go. But to be honest did not have the hunger or drive in my 30′s that I would have had in my care free teen days so I settled for practical and secure. Getting married and having children were more important. I have no regrets, at least it was my decision now. And hey it ain’t over til the fat lady sings…never know what the future holds or opportunities arise. Still at times I do wonder WHAT IF I had support around me. Adults willing to try and commit to developing my potential….?  That for many of us is the question and becomes a dog chasing it’s tail in our thoughts which serves no purpose but to keep us stuck and paralyzed.It doesn’t give us any relief because the past is over. We are responsible now to continue getting support and help if we so desire.  

However the beauty of having Children is NOT to live OUR dreams thru them but know that we can give them the opportunity to develop THEIR dreams. For me that is so satisfying that if I didn’t get the opportunity I can provide a garden for my children to bloom. I don’t want my children to say woulda, coulda, shoulda. So I choose to be aware and alert to any emerging gifts, abilities, or talents that start to peek out from their personalities….grab hold of them and gently coax them out and thru. To open up the many choices available for them so they have opportunities  to move along in their journey and into their future.

I was getting verklempf during the group auditions. My daughter found her tribe. At first I was concerned she might be to unfocused, loud, and dramatic as she usually is. Which at times is quite tiring during day to day tasks. She is a dervish that inhales life. She can suck the energy out of a room and me with her enthusiasm. Funny and smart with a big heart. She needs an audience.

But during this class she was instructed to behave…Oh my gosh like herself….with no restraints other than stay quite, listen and then to do it on que’.  The older kids had the same energy and boldness she had. She watched the older girls and followed suite. She had more energy and enthusiasm than her group of 6 and 7 year olds. I felt encouraged that I made the right choice. The children that started having panick attacks when called on made my heart sad…obviously this was not natural for them as tears streamed down their face from stage freight. This was clearly a case of a parent trying to live thru a child that has no interest or desire to be in public plays or act and enrolling them anyway. 

For me the most important lesson I want my daughter to experience is acceptance, and validity that her enormous personality…may be out of place in a school classroom, by some of her peers and at various times. But totally appropriate, called for and encouraged at other times, situations and places.  This way she knows that she may have to rein in her personality in some situations but not for other situations and definitely the rest of her life.  I want her to know that she has a place and a purpose. Creatively expressing herself with quite confidence and no apologies. Any activity…sports, music, even academics has the potential to foster and nurture talents. My son is totally opposite and his talent lies in technology and he is ok and more comfortable staying home and having a few friends. He DOES NOT want the spotlight or attention. That is OK too. His talents are emerging slower. I keep watching and listening to what is blooming thru his personality, ready to encourage and support however that manifests.

Today maybe you have wondered What IF to yourself like I do at times. Take comfort to know that you can take control, parent the little you and be the support to pursue anything you desire or have a talent and inclination for. Maybe your family remains discouraging. Let me encourage you and let you know…pursue your dreams any way. To assure you that their your group of like minded people are out there. People that relate and GET YOU. When you find them you will feel like you have finally come home.

We are all so unigue like fingerprints and snowflakes however still part of a whole with many outlets. I write as my outlet drawing to me my tribe. Finding like minded people wakes me up to my true potential and empowers me. I know in my heart that I AM …..I choose to BE then NOT to BE. 

That is the question….I pose to you……To just BE………..Take this moment and just BE who you are, feel what you feel, and sing your own song. Imagin you BE-ing totally you…warts and all… It can be scary but think of it this way WHAT IF I could just BE who I am and express that. Take a deep breath…feels good doesn’t it?

Today here is to you and  me just BE-ing,

 KatrinaMarie 

P.S. 

Share with me what that means to you and how you either struggle with just Being who you are or how you overcame struggles to BE who you are. Please comment below.

I send you Love for your service……..thank you !

Remember to say thank you !

Bass-tass-tic – My 40 lb Bass and the Bass blitz…

     

Un-Bassin-Believable !     

Water calm…….didn’t have to get roughed up to KATch these beauties……     

In the three years I have been fishing…finally got to experience a bass blitz…     

Rings the size of olympic swimming pools sprang up sporadically with bunker jumpin out…..Holy Cow being slapped out  :0   

We were Kasting and hookin up like crazy….the blitz would last maybe 5 minutes and then disappear and move… 

Hoping they would re-emerge…when the pod rose to the service chasing the bunker we would jump into high gear and chase

after them watching  these  Bass  hunting the bunker….

The bunker were leaping out of the water to escape being dinner.                                                                                                          .   

I would have liked to have gotten video of the blitz…too much excitment and couldn’t stop and get camara………had to cast, hook, set and reel.   

At least a 20lber every hook up…..my biggest was 45.5″…I usually have to go out East where they migrate… to Katch this size Bass during the

late afternoon ……

Whaat made it so magical and not  some random fluke with only one kaught on the boat and your happy.…   

This was on rapid fire fishing….witnessing nature doing her thing.

The 20 lbers seemed like small fries…which usually would have me doing a happy dance. …as I demonstrate on one vid before   

decking the beauty below that left me speechless……….

These Bass would run out and away from the boat at least 100′ while I was reeling as fast as I could.   

But all I heard was Zzzzzzzzzz….checking me drag…….Man O Man took awhile to gain on them…..so much fun !     

Just to experience and be on this kinda fishin’ with a major hot bite  that were not bluefish was an all time high  !     

This was a blitzen blast …. Too Kool !   And we used bucktails and no live bait.  

This is a Fish Story we will be talkin’ about  for a long time…   

Happy St Patricks – An Irish Blessing from Katrina Marie !

Irish Friendship Wish

Irish eyes are Smilin’

This Saturday we had very bad rain with winds up to 60 mph, and a power outage for a couple of hours. By the next day there was flooding up the Island, various areas with trees and poles down. But Scheduled on March 13th Sunday was the St Patricks Day parade in our local town. Normally if it was drizzling I would not have gone. Standing out in the rain or drizzle  is not my cup o’ tea.

However my daughters class raised the most money for breast cancer and they were rewarded with an opportunity to march in the parade. She was so excited.  I think my husband was just as happy to be involved in the parade. We go every year to one parade or another. My favorite part of St Patrick’s day is the bag pipers marching by.

Back in the day we would go to a local pub where they would schedule them to come in and play the pipes for the patrons.

I inadvertently would end up as close as possible and sometimes smack dab in the middle. It is a thrill to be standing surrounded by the pipers playing.

The vibration and music makes me very emotional. I close my eyes and see the green rolling hills of the Emerald Isle as a dirt road stretches out before me.

It feels as if I am looking thru the eyes of a distant relative from long ago. Bound to me thru DNA. Every year she has a moment, enjoys the music and remembers the old country. I feel very familiar with this music and this celebration. Perhaps thru my own blood line. I wonder if the memories can be passed down if only through our DNA. DNA looks like a bridge or ladder. Hmmmm

I have been mistaken to be Irish most of my life. But I really am I guess what you can call a mutt.

More a Bitta…..”a bit a this a bit a that”….:) I was trying to figure the actual percentage.

Italion 1/4, German 1/4, French 1/4, and then another 1/4 is fragmented into Irish, Swedish, and French. See that is a Bitta’

I was primarily raised with the Italion tradition and food. Had no real influence or even knew I had any Irish relatives until I was an adult and learned from my Grandmother.  But when I hear those Bag Pipers March by or listen to Celtic music now, it feels so familiar to me. Perhaps one day I will meet this distant relative. She or he will greet me and reveal how they enjoyed listening thru me, and it will all make sense.

So of course I had to include a little clip I took of some men in skirts marching by……….Even tho it was a wet and damp day my Irish eyes were smiling.

Technology & Social Revolution – Friend or Foe

I was going thru some old emails and re-visited this video about social Media and it’s impact and some fascinating facts.

I love the music selected it gives these videos a real kick as the information is flashing at us.

There are several of these videos going around created by socionomic and  I will comment on each separately.

So Social Revolution thru the technology of the Internet, is it  friend or foe. Well if your reading this then the obvious assumption is that we are a part of this everyday as we post away……..

and read our Tweets, Facebook pages, diggs, linked in and all the social accounts we belong too.

The Internet has connected us but has also disconnected us from the flesh and blood people of our everyday lives….Hmmmmm…you have to know that to some degree if  you spend a considerable amount of time on line it has.     The only way to survive this Revolution without destroying our personal face to face relationships is to remain balanced as with anything. Easier said then done.

I have to remind myself to stay balanced towards my family…..I fail sometimes…..because I am also participating in 4 online classes at the moment…The positive is I am home to stop on a dime and kiss the boo boos and give hugs…..too be physically here for my kids…which I wouldn’t have been able to do 5/10 years ago. Years ago if you wanted to make money you had to hit the pavement and leave your kids in the care of others.

I am interested………How do you think the Internet has effected your life…better or worse…what say you…leave a comment below.

Me…I say both…it has literally opened up the world for me…I have made connections everywhere around the world that I never would have in my lifetime….and become friends with people here I may never have had the chance to talk to or even thought I wanted too.

Reading all kinds of peoples blogs, websites, forums, tweets or Facebook posts has made me less judgmental about appearances and what people are about. I have been informed, enlightened, entertained beyond any TV show and with no commercials.  It is so easy to get sucked in…and hours fly by……so much easier to engage with others online…because when you get annoyed or

tired of the characters you just walk away or shut down the computer. Not so simple with your spouse, kids, siblings, or parents…huh?

But that is a topic for another post…what I want to discuss is this revolution of technology approaching us like a moving train and passing by only to circle again like a cyclone.

What are we going to use this amazing tool for?  How are we going to grow as a human community with this platform?

Technology is neither bad or evil unto itself…because evil is just an absence of the Divine in the minds and hearts of people…in their thoughts and actions.

Just like dark scientifically defined as the absence of Light. It can’t be measured because it doesn’t give off heat or vibration.

Amazing how one little Candle, flashlight…or computer monitor can chase the dark out of a room so we can see where to step..

When we let the Light of the Divine(Love) Shine from within us to without or thru us with our words and behavior…a true connection to others is made even on the other side of a computer screen it can be felt.

So the question is…..how are we as a people using this tool of technology ?

To spread love, light, awareness…peace…understanding, tolerance…unity.

Depends on where or what you put in a search or browser to what comes up or you find.

I have found a grass roots movement……..millions strong to encourage this planet to rise to the next level of Awareness, Love and Harmony….and grow beyond the centuries old aggressive fear based mentality…promoted by the ones in control thru Media.

Ashton Kutchers point in challenging CBS was that anyone can speak out now, anyone can be a star on You-tube, Hulu, twitter, Facebook. Anyone can generate a Million followers.

Anyone can write their opinion or a book. We no longer have to bow or grovel at the feet of Kings or Executives of powerful Companies……it is a day when an average person can speak out, sing out and be heard by many more then ever before.

So that those same executives come knocking and begging at the door of the common people if they want to stay in business.

Bottom line………..Balance…What do we want this platform and tool to do for us….individually and collectively.

It is in Our intention no matter what the tool….Our intention manifests in action..or what we post or look at and participate in online.

It could be as simple as a type by post from a troll…meant to hurt, embarrass or create doubt and fear.

Or an encouraging word to uplift a depressed lurker…..or poster.

Speaking out for injustice and starting a movement for change towards a peaceful way to settle differences

Or will we just gripe and complain and debate…

Or just relax, have some fun and interaction, make connections and friends………..the list goes on and on.

I see us and Humanity in general going thru GROWING PAINS as we contemplate different ways to look at the world, people, opinions, religions, countries…it is real people talking not just the Media anymore.

Here on the Internet looking at all the threads and posts proves the point of all these things……..basic human needs haven’t changed…but the rate and speed with which they are processed has…and the tolerance for old mindsets or ways of thinking are being challenged swiftly.

We as a world are either going to use this tool for good…..which I see many doing……..or destruction.

But hasn’t that always been the dilemma with anything…….?

Divine Light comes into the world in the form of miracles big and small. Hearts that let Love overrule their instinctive reactions and intentions, choosing to respond in kindness and simple courtesy towards their fellowman…..It is a test to be behind a computer…….so much easier to be rude, so much safer…..but does that mean we should if the itch or annoyance strikes us. Remember what goes around comes around….an unkind boomerang might just hit you in the back of the head while typing something nasty.

I have hope for a world of Caring, Peace and Freedom. But as always let hospitality begin at home and extend to the flesh and blood people we see daily…and THEN outward to the individuals we connect with behind each and every moniter.

Our Reach and ability individually to do that just got massively larger. To make a difference. Thru good writing, videos, music, offering information for others in need of it.

I for one being a Mompreneur have found the Internet and Technology a positive outlet for me. I don’t feel as trapped or lonely as I did when I first decided to stay home with my children..when all of the other Mothers worked. I have so many more opportunities to make an income it is mind boggling.

I have so many more choices and opportunities opening up to me. I can have my cake and eat it too……don’t have to pressure my husband as my only form of interaction…because I heard kid talk or Kids shows all day. I can go chat on line whenever.

I can Learn and connect without having to leave my children or family by walking out the door to do that. It isn’t either OR now.

We have more people now to interact with then we would otherwise….more people with common interests…that totally understand your particular mindset or interests. We can make more friends…that we then get to socialize with. Not just with the few we may work with at the office or meet at a gym.

I can find more groups or friends for my children..set up play dates easier. Set up controlled and safe connections for my kids…connect thru skype for free to cousins in Florida that they would rarely have contact with.

They can talk too live and see on camera…building a relationship and connection…….like the jet-sons. I get a kick out of the senior citizens that have mastered email and send jokes, poems, and public warnings to all their kin…LOL

A lot of you guys don’t have to go to the local bar to have some guy talk or even watch a game or play poker…

So what does it mean…….well when all is said and done I choose to use technology for Peace and Freedom……..Hope and Love……Fun and connection with more people outside of who I could connect with otherwise…. …and to teach my children to do the same.

How about you…….Technology and It’s Rapid appeal and growth………are due to many reasons….this is just one of them to think about…

I tried to stay focused on how our intention can swing tech and societies door both ways…..and how any of us choose to participate. Yes there is a lot of junk……but I have found such amazing people and things.

Well…I have finished my post while home because of technology..and that is very good to me.

Please Post your thoughts and concerns about the video I would like to hear how others are feeling about this.

Looking forward to hearing from you…….Katrina
