Dear Friends: Welcome to our monthly newsletter. We offer some information, some inspiration and some features to keep you smiling. A few facts about the month of June: No other month begins on the same day of the week as June. June’s flower is the rose or honeysuckle. June in the northern hemisphere is the December of the southern hemisphere and vice versa. There are numerous events and celebrations in June. Let us make note of one in particular. Happy Father’s Day to all the Dads out there. Warmly, Lillian To read this newsletter on-line go to: http://www.clearpathwayscoaching.com Contents: Quote of the month Consider this Article Good humor/good health QUOTE OF THE MONTH: What worries you, masters you. – Charles Schulz CONSIDER THIS: We tend to worry about that which has not yet happened and may never happen. Worry has no influence or affect on outcomes. It only puts us into a state of stress. We are best served to focus on those things within our control and let go of the rest. ARTICLE: We all need a tree... I hired a plumber to help me restore an old farmhouse, and after he had just finished a rough first day on the job: a flat tire made him lose an hour of work, his electric drill quit and his ancient one ton truck refused to start. While I drove him home, he sat in stony silence. On arriving, he invited me in to meet his family. As we walked toward the front door, he paused briefly at a small tree, touching the tips of the branches with both hands. When opening the door he underwent an amazing transformation. His face was wreathed in smiles and he hugged his two small children and gave his wife a kiss. Afterward he walked me to the car. We passed the tree and my curiosity got the better of me. I asked him about what I had seen him do earlier. "Oh, that's my trouble tree," he replied. "I know I can't help having troubles on the job, but one thing's for sure, those troubles don't belong in the house with my wife and the children... So I just hang them up on the tree every night when I come home and ask God to take care of them. Then in the morning I pick them up again. Funny thing is," he smiled, "when I come out in the morning to pick'em up, there aren't nearly as many as I remember hanging up the night before." GOOD HUMOR/GOOD HEALTH: A few words from the visionary Steven Wright: Change is inevitable except from vending machines. I almost had a psychic girlfriend, but she left me before we met. Everyone has a photographic memory. Some people just don’t have film. Shin – a device for finding furniture in the dark. Experience is something you don’t get until just after you need it. 42.7 % of all statistics are made up on the spot. Someone sent me a postcard with a picture of the earth. On the back it said, “Wish you were here.” Remember: He who laughs, lasts.
