Where is your Ancestor Chi-energy? I have discussed chi-energy previously and as you know, it can be found in many forms. Ancestor-chi is passed along via the blood lines that connect you with your direct ancestors. My dad’s working career was a Newspaper Ad-man. He did the ‘copy’ for all the ads and special features that ran in the newspapers back in Ontario. He came from a bloodline of serious artists. When retired, he turned his attention to paintings…

Check out my blog from last week -The To-do List.) Ned suggested; pick three things off your To-do list each day, and do them well. What a concept!

Read MoreDo you know… How many times a person re-writes their To-do list? I’m not sure, but it must be a lot! Each day, people roll over all the tasks they haven’t worked into their schedule. It is like we are purposefully sabotaging our lives! The endless list: Are we all overbooked? Are we all frozen with indecision or distracted dealing with the merry-go-round-of-life?
