Happy New Year Folks.
I hope 2009 has so far treated you with kindness and generosity :)

I have had some really great times these last few weeks myself. About a week before Christmas I had the honor and pleasure of meeting Stargate's Ben Browder. Col. Mitchell was in fine holiday form for this girl (big grin for all of Ben's Babes out there). If you haven't had a chance yet, go over to the main page and watch the Video Interview with Ben. Not only was the setting spectacular (Santa Monica beach) but Ben was in fine hilarious form.

Just recently I was given the privilege of meeting Robert Picardo, so look forward to yet another fabulous offering from GateWorld and David Read from that front.

Due to some major health issues I have been afforded the opportunity to work from home full time. In these troubled economic times, that is something I am sure many of us can see as the miracle of technology it is. Also as my Doctors work hard on things I am pleased to be able to give my employer full productivity. Something I was not able to do all the time previously.

The Christmas season also brought the joys of a 2 year old with it. :-) All to often I feel we get jaded or just take some stuff for granted as the years pass by so quickly. So having the little one in our midst has slowed it all back down and made us once again enjoy the wonder of each and every little thing. What a wonderful world we truly do reside in.

Granted there are horrific things going on around us and folks of many nations are dealing with strife and turmoil. However, there is wonder in a flower blooming to its full glory and smelling the fragrance as it drifts gently in the air. Watching a child's eyes light up when she sees you coming up the walkway. Feeling those little arms squeezing your neck with the words, "Lub you" being whispered in your hair.

Watching a cat stalk a cricket across the kitchen floor. Laughing when the cricket gets away and the cat looks annoyed. Looking across a room filled with your weird family and knowing that your heart is feeling too full of love that your eyes must leak just a bit.

We all have struggles in our daily life. The world is going to keep on having minor and major struggles daily as well. However, you can find things to uplift your heart and soul if you look and want to be uplifted. I hope you find what works for you and have a great moment, a great day and even a great week. The next thing you know it will have added up and you might even have a great year (grin)........
and that Gaterites...is Enlightenment Tame Style :-)
