My friend Sharon Pacione has done it again! She writes the most amazing poetry and essays. This most recent one really resonated with me. She echoes so many of my own thoughts and beliefs. Hope she hits a chord with you as well. Enjoy!
May 26, 2006 - Danger: Hidden Sources of MSG
"A label that says 'No MSG added' doesn't necessarily
mean that the food is free of MSG, ..."
This quote from the NaturoDoc web site should raise a BIG
red flag. Consider this a must read.
April 29, 2005 - Morning Prayer of Gratitude Before
Opening My Eyes to the Outer World
I am fortunate to know Sharon Pacione. She is
passionate about many
issues and shares her insight and opinions with
many people. I think of
her as a beacon, someone who shines light on
many topics for the pure sake
of wanting to keep people informed. She is also
a very talented writer.
She recently wrote this prayer and sent it to me
and everyone on her email
list. Her words touched my heart, so much so
that I printed this and
start my day with this prayer many mornings. I
asked her if I could put
it on my website so that all of you who visit
Transitions would have the
opportunity to read and enjoy this work.
Thanks, Sharon!
February 6, 2005 - Bowersox Protocol for
Fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue
I have also suffered from Fibromyalgia over the
years. I want to share some information with
you about a wonderful doctor named Harold J.
Bowersox.
January 30, 2005 - A Story & Photo you will not
believe!
As a labor and birth doula, I am blessed and honored
to see the mystery and majesty of a human being
coming into this world. Just a couple of months
ago I attended the birth of triplets. It was an
awesome experience.
This message and photo was sent to me recently and
it had a profound impact. If ever anyone doubted
that a "fetus" is a human being, this photo should
clarify such questions. I wanted to share this
with you all...."Food for thought".....Love, Paula
January 25, 2005 - Benefits of Rebounding
Several years ago, I heard about the benefits of
rebounding and purchased mini-trampolines for each
of my children and one for us. I was astounded by
all of the positive results from this simple
activity. During my elementary school years, all
of the girls at St. Philomena School carried our
jumpropes with us each day. We spent our recess
period jumping rope just for the joy of it. Little
did we know that we were keeping our bodies in shape
at the same time. Rebounding is similar but much
easier on the joints than jumping on hard concrete.
These mini trampolines are inexpensive yet, as you
will read, quite effective on many levels. My younger
daughter puts her favorite CDs into her portable
player, pops on her headphones and jumps for a good
hour. She is in perfect health! I wanted to share
this information and hope that you will consider
this fun and healthy activity. Start the New
Year out right by Jumping for Joy!!
As with all exercise programs, please check with
your doctor before starting!
January 20, 2005 - You Are A Miracle
Each time I see and hear this, I feel a powerful
sense that I am a part of a much bigger plan. I
feel loved, special, and protected. I hope you
get the same feeling....Blessings, Paula
You Are A Miracle Flash Movie by Terri McPherson
Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
I first posted this on MLK Day in 2005. So many people enjoyed it and asked that I put it up every January. However, I decided to keep it up year round for folks who may be visiting my site for the first time. This essay was written by my daughter, Jennifer.
While a graduate
student at Case Western Reserve University,
Jenni entered an essay contest
which was being sponsored by Case. The topic
was Martin Luther King, Jr.
Her entry won first place. Although this essay
was written years ago,
the message is as relevant today as it was in 1999.
Jennifer is now a Communications Specialist and
also enjoys working as a
freelance writer and editor.
January 15, 2005 - Three Types of Fools
When I first read this thought provoking piece,
it really hit home. I was
able to identify with all three types of fools,
especially the last one.
It is amazing to me how I have searched and read
and studied in my
eagerness to find healing of body, mind and
spirit. The more I read, the
more I want to read. Yet now I have come to
learn that the knowledge I
have hungered for all these years has been
within me all along! Maybe the
words will resonate with you as well.
Food for thought!...
