My children are taking me to see His Holiness in December! HHDL

BODHICITTA PRAYERS
With a wish to free all beings
I shall always go for refuge
To the Buddha, Dharma and Sangha,
Until I reach full enlightenment.
Enthused by wisdom and compassion,
Today in the Buddha's presence
I generate the Mind for Full Awakening
For the benefit of all sentient beings.
As long as space remains,
As long as sentient beings remain,
Until then, may I too remain
And dispel the miseries of the world
.......
My Beloved Teacher

Meet my teacher, Tibetan Buddhist Geshe Thubten Dawe, in the Blue Mts NSW, Australia.

Chronic Illness & Pain Support: friends in need
'CIRCLE of FRIENDS' support group, since 2001 this group has supported me (and many others) through years of pain, depression, confusion... When MSN groups closed down we were forced to move. I'm delighted that we've made Care2 our home.

A.I.M.I. Care2 Human Rights group
You are invited to the "HUMAN RIGHTS FOR PRISONERS" March in ATLANTA.
Please check this billboard for details.
A.I.M.I. is working for the decriminalization of mental illness, for the removal of the stigma associated with mental illness, to educate the public and promote change in how mental illness is dealt with by American legislators and law enforcement.

My Gratitude, Challenges and Goals

I have been in pain without a break for more than a decade... everything I do hurts. I am grateful to those friends who patiently wait when I am missing or lost in brainfog or slower than usual. I cannot respond in a timely manner to your communications - sometimes not at all. So please accept my apologies if I have neglected you.
***
My challenges include fibromyalgia, cfs/me, psoriatic arthritis, depression, osteoporosis, liver dysfunction. I have one outing each week after which I have to spend 1-2 days in bed. The psoriatic arthritis is getting worse, especially in my hands. When I am overtired or stressed I have problems talking, thinking, and remembering.
***
I began learning to overcome negative emotions (still learning) when I had cancer 2 decades ago. During this time I found that MEDITATION improved my physical and mental health in unexpected ways, and still does. Same goes for YOGA breathing and postures which I use to correct and ease pain and discomfort. I understand my body better because of yoga.
***
Being able to SUPPORT and/or TO GIVE SERVICE to others is a wonderful opportunity that Care2 provides. IT FEELS VERY GOOD TO BE USEFUL! To be ENCOURAGED, LISTENED TO, and UNDERSTOOD are the jewels in the crown of having Care2 friends and contacts.
Thank you.

Dear Agnes, I am so lucky to have met you... and to have counted you as friend, mentor, and role model. AGNES was an enthusiastic member
of AN ORCHID IN AUSTRALIA

AN ORCHID IN AUSTRALIA
http://www.care2.com/c2c/group/Ethnoecology
A Care2 group for people who have an interest in Australia and its weird and wonderful flora and fauna -and weird and wonderful people. The orchid pictured above was discovered by Care2's Boris Branwhite- there are less than 100 plants known. Read more about it in the group...

EDUCATION - ENCOURAGEMENT - EXAMPLE
These 3 E's are how wildlife protector WILF DEWS summed up his philosophy. As a 10 year old I was fortunate to tag along on NSW Flora and Fauna fieldtrips with Wilf, and to participate in the efforts that made a difference, e.g. stopped a highway from ploughing through Newcastle's BLACKBUTT RESERVE; raised awareness of the importance of WETLANDS; planted trees throughout the HUNTER VALLEY; and investigated eroding creekbanks.

My motivation for co-hosting AN ORCHID IN AUSTRALIA is to honour WILF DEWS and AGNES CORBETT...

For several decades Australia forcibly removed Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander (Indigenous) children from their families. These children became known as
