<p>medical marihuana is normal.  medical marijuana is a tested manner to treat pain. When looking for the correct manner to handle hurt you really should study ganja. </p>
<p>marijuana is  expensive if you compare it to all-purpose medication.  If you withdraw the healthcare breaks, then medical marijuana is merely as cheap as any other form of narcotic medicine.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When you fall, do you get right back up? Do you learn from your mistake and move on? Or do you kick yourself so hard in the butt that you just mope around for days in your PJs and wonder why you&#8217;re so miserable? Come on! Get a grip!</p>
<p>Okay, okay, that was uncalled for, but seriously, the more mistakes you make, the more you learn. The more you learn the more you grow and the more likely you&#8217;ll be a future bright star in the sky.</p>
<p>When you were a young growing child, how were you supposed to know the oven was hot? Or that you can&#8217;t put metal in the microwave? Or that when you say something impolite you&#8217;ll hurt someone&#8217;s feelings? You would have either experienced these things first hand, or you were taught that these were all things to avoid.</p>
<p>Mistake Anxiety</p>
<p>A constant fact of life is that we all make mistakes. What varies is how we all handle a self-inflicted setback. Some get angry; others get upset, while others encounter the wretched beast known as denial (What mistake? It wasn&#8217;t me!).</p>
<p>Just like we mentioned in a previous article: &#8220;The Key&#8217;s in the Hole. Now turn it!&#8221;, it&#8217;s important to take a chance! If you make a mistake, at least you turned the key and made a valiant attempt. If you were too terrified of turning the key, you never would have known whether you would have been successful or not! And you couldn&#8217;t have possibly made a mistake to learn from!</p>
<p>I mean, how can you learn without messing up every once in a while? You need to make a mistake to learn. If you did everything perfectly, then you&#8217;ll never know the right strategy from the wrong.</p>
<p>Are You a Leader?</p>
<p>Then there&#8217;s a whole other set of people who admit to their mistakes, acknowledge that they stumbled, but they go right into contingency mode. I mean, so you screwed up, so what? It&#8217;s not the end of the world is it? The Earth will still be in orbit and mosquitoes will still be biting the hell out of your legs. It&#8217;s not a question of: &#8220;I screwed up, give me pity&#8221;, it&#8217;s a question of: &#8220;Okay, I slipped-up, but this is what I&#8217;m going to do about it&#8230;&#8221;</p>
<p>The best leaders out there are the ones who made the most mistakes but learned from them. The ones that never discovered or acknowledged their faux pas never made it into the business world and never made a difference in their own life, or the world.</p>
<p>Young Toronto Blue Jays starting pitcher Josh Towers went 0-12 last season between Baltimore and its Triple-A club. Last year as the Jays&#8217; fifth starter he went 8-1. Quite the turn around from just a year ago! Josh Towers, the winning Jays&#8217; pitcher in the last game of the season, said:</p>
<p>&#8220;You can&#8217;t succeed without failing. I failed. I learned a lot from that.&#8221;</p>
<p>Now go out there and pitch a perfect game in your life. You might fail once. Or twice. Or ten times. But just remember, each failure brings you closer to a glowing success.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>&#8220;The world stands aside to let him pass who knows where he is going&#8221; &#8211; David Starr Jordan.</p>
<p>The year was ushered in with great jubilation as is always the tradition. It is always exciting seeing a new year and the excitement is understandable. But once the euphoria is gone, the question should be, &#8220;What next?&#8221; Most people forget to ask this question and are over engaged with eating and jubilating. This is not supposed to be so. The New Year is another opportunity to start again, to make a fresh attempt at life.</p>
<p>Dearest, you have to take heed of an aimless life this year. You cannot afford to live the year without an aim or a goal as you wish to call it. If you have being living without an aspirations in the past years, this year should be an exception. You cannot afford to live 365 days of the year without aiming at something meaningful. You cannot afford to get to the end of the year and not be able to point at something important that you have achieved this year. I don&#8217;t know if there is any word worst than disaster, but that will describe your inability to achieve anything worthwhile in the year.</p>
<p>The man without a purpose never leaves his mark upon the world. He has no individuality; he is absorbed in the mass, lost in the crowd, weak, wavering, incompetent. His outlines of individuality and angles of character have been worn off, planed down to suit the common thought until he has, as a man, been lost in the throng of humanity. Beloved, I won&#8217;t want you to fit into this description at all that is why this clarion call is coming to you. Most people are lost and it is very pitiable that they don&#8217;t realize it until when it is too late.</p>
<p>Somebody said, &#8220;The man who succeeds above his fellows is the one who early in life clearly discerns his object, and towards that object habitually directs his powers. Even genius itself is but fine observation strengthened by fixity of purpose. Every man who observes vigilantly and resolves steadfastly grows unconsciously into genius.&#8221; Another said, &#8220;If you don&#8217;t have any overall major purpose, you are wasting the better portion of your life. The wear and tear of living isn&#8217;t worth it unless you are going somewhere.&#8221;</p>
<p>Do you have a picture of what you want to do this year? Do you have a major purpose in life? If December 31st 2006 arrives, what will you say you achieved in 2006? When people are taking stock of the year 2006, what will you say about your achievements? Will you congratulate yourself or be ashamed of your accomplishments in the year 2006? The choice is yours! My only plea is that you shouldn&#8217;t allow any moment of the year to fritter away. It holds a lot of promises for those who have something to live for every day of the year.</p>
<p>Let me close by sharing this quote with you: &#8220;No man is fit to win, who has not sat down alone to think; and who has not come forth with purpose in his eyes, with white cheeks, set lips and clenched palms, able to say: &#8216;I am resolved what to do.&#8217;&#8221;</p>
<p>Are you resolved on what to do this year? Are you still basking in the euphoria of the New Year? You still think the year is young for you to start out? Common! Wake up and do something!</p>
<p>It is a challenge for you to succeed this year and it is my prayer that you will succeed. I want to be part of those that will rejoice with you at the end of the year.</p>
<p>This is to your sucess.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I believe it&#8217;s important for you to develop a mission statement for your life; one that is unique and articulates your values, goals, dreams; how you want to live.</p>
<p>Your mission statement is a living, breathing testimony of the life you are committed to living. It is also a way to pull yourself back from the darkness when you are feeling lost in the minutiae of misery.</p>
<p>I read my mission statement every morning and it grounds me and reminds me what is important and how I want to be that day. I have not shared this with others before now, because it is intensely personal, but I thought I would share it in this article, in hopes that you will write your own mission statement as one of the first steps in your own sacred journey.</p>
<p>MY JOURNEY by Dr. Tim Sams</p>
<p>I will live with the courage of an open heart, free of convention or expectation.</p>
<p>I will feel passionate about what I do and how I live.</p>
<p>I will shed the toxic and be healed by me and what I bring into my life.</p>
<p>I will feel as one with Mother Earth and my tribe.</p>
<p>I will merge my creative loving energy with others and make fire.</p>
<p>I will learn and mature in wisdom and encourage others to follow their unique path.</p>
<p>I will squeeze every drop of joy and playfulness that I can from Life, then release my exhausted body to the earth and my grateful spirit to the winds.</p>
<p>May the universe then know: I lived with purpose; I loved with passion; I laughed often.</p>
<p>* * *</p>
<p>I hope you have a glorious and loving week. Be as good to yourself as you are to others.</p>
<p>Good light,</p>
