STRUGGLE Is Really NEUTRAL

April 12th, 2013

Alas, STRUGGLE comes to mind as HARD TO DO. HARD is reflecting an uncomfortable FEELING. Here we go again…

Safely and successfully attempting any task requires knowledge and skill. Some of us run into a task and we WING it. But at this stage we are usually older and have some experiencing to build on. Physically tackling a task requires knowledge and skill leading to the FEELING sensations of discomfort. This is eased by the degree of health one sports. Yes, the better shape one is, the more the energy flows correctly, strengthening the frame.

Now, one faces a task that requires much physical exertion. Knowing that an attitude of I SEE MYSELF doing such, directs the inner energy to provide more capability to the body, one can approach the task with more confidence and surprisingly, experience far less of a STRUGGLE.

With practice one can change the pain-strain, often a burning sensation, to a pleasurable warmth. With more time one can see the FEELING made the difference. Color plays an important part here. Erase the FEELING (impossible) and one is in neutrality.

I like truth and the truth is that neutrality surrounds us. We make something NEGATIVE or POSITIVE by thought/attitude and that moves enough inner “stuff” to become a FEELING. Yep, we all make our own FEELING STRUGGLE. Study Human Energy, the inner flowing rainbow. River Kate

Delicious Self-Control over Gun Control

April 11th, 2013

My dear readers, No one is making a distinction in the problem of the VIOLENCE issue our countrymen face from the VIOLENT acts that are witnessed and reported. What distinction? VIOLENCE is a FEELING explosion before the act. Violence FELT inside may not be shown outside. It may not be demonstrated. But for sure, VIOLENT behavior is witnessable and leaves harm. VIOLENT behavior results in harm to self and others. Violent behavior can involved a gun, a knife, box cutter-exacto knife or bare hands. Are you going to ban bare arms/hands?

How do you control VIOLENCE FEELING? Taking away the gun or any weapon is not the answer. The feeler has to be taught what he/she is doing to make that dreadful heated feeling that striking out appears to solve. Alas, striking out does not end that feeling. The VIOLENT behavior is a result of the confusion the feeler is experiencing. Believing the cause of anger is an outside issue or person is the fool’s game.

I cannot tell you how much I appreciate not being in this game. As soon as I detect the disturbing whirl of heat inside, I know immediately what thinking I am in- Always AGAINST something or someone.
I can redirect this horrid feeling by imaging shades of alkaline colors. I can choose laughter (It feels so good).
Best of all, I can sit down and just feel the angry sensations moving through me. I can experience it, calm down and move on.

I can have multi guns around me and not need one to solve my problem -my temper. You have to be honest with yourself. Do you want to experience this amazing delicious feeling surge or not? What you are missing! People must control their energy to experience the delight.
You cannot control the FEELING world of another.

Irrationale conclusions are laying blame on innocent tools which were made to help mankind provide for himself. The fact is a time came when it was necessary to point the weapon or aim the knife etc. This was a sad time as one, two or more humans involved experienced their worst fool side, their enemy within. Had they understood they were feeling their thoughts, another conclusion might have happened.

YEs, the answer is and always has been- EDUCATION. Teaching the truth about self-made feeling power AND how to properly handle, care for (including lock up/protection) and respect all weapons. From one safety trained hunter to another, respect the animal you take. Be grateful for all it provides.

As to feeling causation- I have another beef- it is the truth about STRUGGLES/.
THIS A VICTIM I AM not—
VICTIM- Valuing Illusions (that) Cancel TRUTH (what is really happening) Immobilizes MANKIND (YOU/me)
ILLUSION- Individual Level (of) Life Understanding ……….what you think you know .where you innocently are.
I unlocked myself from false cause and effect. Stay with energy for the real cause. Next post STRUGGLES.

MARCH -A MONTH to CELEBRATE with color BROWN

March 22nd, 2013

Personally I have had a great time this month celebrating birthdays of two grandsons living far away. I also celebrated two daughters, living a distance from me. What a time! Even though circumstances made us choose to change our plans, we celebrated with delicious chocolate cake in each’s honor.
One was a March 19th evening and the other March 20th.
A year ago we faced the possibility of cousins being born on same day.
The 5 year cousin, living in California, was waiting to hear if they were sharing the same birthday date. Little LUKE came several minutes after midnight of the 19th a few “pushes” later. Each have their own date. And I get Chocolate cake two nights in a row. TEll me more…

A sliver of RICH, a whispered word, dark brown chocolate cake separated by layers of medium brown runny filling atopped with tiny chocolate chips, warmed inside, is all I allow me.
Self-discipline is rewarding myself to attract more….
High Gratitude passion assures me more…..
The brown is stamped into my mind and I know it helps the GROUNDING energy of my being. I welcome it joyously.

BROWN- Basic Radiation Operating Wonderous Nature
GROUNDED- Grouped Radiations Operating (and) Unifying Natural, Degrees (of) Energies, Divine

ENERGY, Gratitude PASSION is your answer

March 22nd, 2013

Day after day I hear frustrated speakers and leaders stating how their work does not really change their audiences. Hipe and agreement are evident while audiences are captured in small groups or large. Within a few days that change or NEW ME is in depression or reservation.
I understand there are NEW challenges that you face as you read or view happenings around you. Yet, you alone can KICK IN that marvelous FEELING you had in the leadership or seminar session.
Truthfully, YOU stopped that marvelous FEELING.
Your ENERGY is what you FELT during that session.
YOUR ENERGY was moving inside at very fast rates BECAUSE you were in an “I LIKE” agreement state or saying YES, YES, I CAN.

This is why I look very close at the decision our ?wise ones? advocate concerning honoring with trophies and certificates-rewards.
The purpose of honoring was INSPIRING and ENCOURAGING accomplishment. When my grandchild is given a trophy because she PARTICIPATED and not that she won first or second place, I shutter. This is working against the child’s desire to do her best and show her special talent given by a great force to serve. She is not building inside another VITAL energy FLOW called PRIDE.
I advise you to read my article on the website concerning workplace attitude and accomplishment.

The younger craftmen and sellsmen have no pride joy in most places of work.
I see very little pride JOY RELEASED INSIDE NATURALLY while working/serving others.
From cashier to waitress to persons waiting on customers to garage attendants I see disgust and very much tiredness, strain. All is such a downer plan. Of course hundreds would rather be PAID through food stamps, welfare and more entitlements
than go DO SOMETHING to be of service. But those are denying their bodies the NATURAL energy movements. So recreational drugs and/or more questionable behavior, even criminal, come as substitutes- very poor quality substitutes.
I am not referring to social security an INSURANCE paid into by self- WORKERS. Though I question the honorablity of such with time to be your owner saver….or earlier it was so..

NOT ALL are wanting.. KEPT. Around me I see it much harder for persons of 45+ years to turn to those escapes. Like me, they had enough time to realize that happiness comes from a job well done- JOY PRIDE. Now they struggle to FIND a JOB. HAVING to accept government handouts is a very big blow to them. There is hope.

Study yourself not needing to be ashamed.
Study the energy inside, Human Energy, and learn how to control it to bring COLOR and new thought arrangement into your MIND. This brings back the SENSATIONS of joypride and boosts the health being drained by sadness or fear, even anger.
Learn how much of a MAGNET you are.
Draw the best to you. Go into denial, so to speak and playact, declare, see and most of all, FEEL the desire for something you want to have in your life.
I call it GRATITUDE PASSION. State it. I am .. I have…. and describe it, in detail…I also stated this would be for my best good, harming no one.
I declared I am worthy of receiving such. HOLD these thoughts or pictures in your mind then forget it but not with doubt.
I tested a very small thing and it was in my life very quickly after FEELING the REALNESS of its possibility.

I, as others, have tried stating what I wanted even in detail. Did not manifest/appear.
I learned that it is the FEELING, the GRATITUDE PASSION, that attracts the desired happening or object to me.
Jump into this world and feel the JOYPRIDE over and over again.

Have a hobby you really enjoy? Start there.
Master that and make it show your JOYPRIDE accomplishment- a job well done.
Prepare it for trade or sell.
Create a job without benefits and draw the safety and health around you that benefits would have covered, no longer needed.
Understand ENERGY a new CAUSE and EFFECT. Understand you as I do, me.

PASSION- Producing Atomic Sensations Surgng Inside Opening Nature.
NATURE- New Aproach to TRUTH Universal, Responsible and Eternal. (Our Energy Nature)

DESIRE and WANT may Work against your WISHES

January 23rd, 2013

Do you want maximum control over your feeling world? I invite you to learn how to MAKE your feeling sensation. In my book ALWAYS LIKE the FIRST TIME I explain desire thought as a special movement producing a feeling sensation.

To desire is to want. Yet, in energy attraction principles “to want” is to declare you do not have or are without, why else would you be wanting?

The trick is to declare (written or spoken aloud), think, and visualize what you want as if giving thanks for it. Yes, powerful gratitude works in the PRESENT moment, the now.

This is why I wrote the book. It clarifies causation and word terms so the inner movements can change and produce deliciously satisfying sensations proving you are the director of your life even on an unconscious level. My book has many examples and tips for bringing this truth to the conscious level. Declaring you have what you want, visualizing and most important adding profound gratitude sensations are OPPOSITES.

I grew up with models of expressing “wanting”, struggling to attain whatever was wanted with explanations of having to work hard etc. So my mental recording was like yours, that to attain was difficult and you had to have money or a desired exchange-barter. Giving money away and/or exchanging were methods used in the family or relatives only.

To start an energy attraction causing eventual manifestation, your declarations must contain many details and much gratitude, whether visualized or not.

This requires “FAITH“, that is believing in something before it appears.

Stop “desiring” in the thought that you do not have. Desire in the thought pattern that you “have it” ALREADY. Gratitude replaces the worry and doubt.

Be on a deliberate conscious level to hold the grateful thought and picture in mind or hold a tangible picture. Declare, give thanks, and let go….. Not easy. Declaring your desire for..or wish is in the highest interest of the universe and everyone else is a must. Close with “It is so and It is done.” Take a minute or two to hold a feeling of gratitude in silence. I image purple while building sensations.

While you keep faith it will be there, clear out “old tapes” your old thoughts and replace with more accepting peace-making thoughts which bring peaceful joyful sensations inside. This is another definite OPPOSITE of everyday observed behavior.

I am writing more articles and books, especially on color, which will bring a new more powerful NOW to experience. I plan to pass this information to future generations so they are on track. I have founded systems for self-educating and self monitoring which develop a habit called “thinking before doing”.

Check out the PAPE method, read all articles and feel free to comment.

ENTITLEMENT – a self appreciation killer – COLORs Depreciating (revised)

December 17th, 2012

As a parent it was very evident that giving to my children without a return effort from them was allowing them to TAKE OVER. Respect was gone and so was discipline. Through trial and error I solved the situation by presenting the family as a business running on business principles. Did we get everything right? NO! Like all parents we got there with no guidance booklet. Two sets of parents in law had influence only because WE brought their thoughts and values into the picture; our choice, our folly!

Of course you want your children to have an easier time, more goodies LIKE the JONES (just who are the Jones anyway?) and better experiences than you. BUT that is not what their inner self needs. You only postpone what is going to happen to them and through them when you breed “negative” self-centeredness. This sets up the illusion of “negative” separateness.

There is an energy exchange every time, invisible to you but very felt. Not expecting any sign or statement of gratitude robs the child of the power to learn steps toward manifesting his/her positive desires. Self satisfaction is replaced by self disgust silently whispered by self to self. Inner dialogue is in shallow dark waters here. What to do?

So easy. Just set up an exchange that both parties can see beneficial. Of course the earlier/younger the better BUT I asked my child, 12 months and up ‘WHAT DO YOU WANT?” Pointing or just going after the tangible “want” was her answer, so observe. Then I expressed my want for me.

Wants established. Next, the exchange- I ask “what can I do to help you get what you want?” Of course this expands in language as the child grows older but they register this technique VERY YOUNG. I agree to that idea and then here comes the 2nd half of the exchange.

I suggest what the child can do to help me get what I want. Perhaps it is not being disturbed unless an emergency arose (I had established a special code word that was to be used ONLY if an emergency was at hand). All of this thinking stimulates the brain and brings in inner creativity.

The exchange clear on both parties we set out to get what we wanted. While the first child was very young, I worked my want activity right in sight of the child. Later I could be in another room with another older child sharing time with his/her younger sibling.

Peaceful co-existence appeared and remained.

Soon all the children (6) were balancing “wants” with each other. They had learned how to negotiate. So many problems – challenges were solvable using this “in exchange”. Hardships came and went and the inner dialogues were being monitored by each child himself/herself. Self responsibility came naturally.

ENTITLEMENT! EARN your entitlement. Bank your early earnings at home and watch the amount grow. Chat with other members about what you desire to attain. The thrill of success in getting what you want is so memorable. When money was tight, we used bartering. Later our young adults sought outside employment and succeeded. They got what they wanted by working for it. They experienced SELF-MADE PRIDE.

Now jobs are harder to find so THINK and create a positive solution to some challenge. Hobbies are very strong clues of high interest and motivation for you.

Nothing is more FAIR than challenging yourself to your greatest potential with loved ones around…. And COLORs? YES, happy feelings are bright clear coloring while demanding, expecting and angry feelings are murky and thick coloring inside. These color hues produce strained aging outer looks accompanied by illness, mental and physical, and/or ill actions.

WORK- WONDROUS ORDINANCES (efforts) RESULTING in KNOWLEDGE (growth).

YES, another OPPORTUNITY to MIS-understand CAUSE and EFFECT- and your split second choice

December 15th, 2012

The news is spreading the story of the shootings. Again, I repeat GUNS do not kill. Gun-shooters DO.
What is needed is more enforcement to laws to require GUN HANDLING TRAINING and at earlier ages. I see 12 year old as a good starting age (though some parents see it earlier)for training the proper handling and care for a gun. Preparing the child to shoot to bring down an edible animal or bird is part of self sufficency training along with knowledge in trapping and fishing.

Fact, The intruder has a gun. The intruder must be stopped and usually by a gun, not a sharp word or punch out. Unfortunately, this is part of self sufficency training not initiated by the trained gun handler- conceal carry.

I see training with the P.A.PE. “Take Charge With Color” (my anger management course)is a must to take full self responsibility. The ability to read your energy such as where safely to be, is most important. Understanding you labor under the Universal Law of Attraction and Universal Law of Allowing, will help you set up the right attractions and free you to manifest safety and other requirements. All this and more is in the Take Charge With Color course.

As a parent I too am sad that such drastic change has to be faced at such a time in the season. It will take sometime for each one to realize they have a split second to choose to use gratitude over anger everytime they see a toy or clothing or special spot where they sat or played with the deceased child. I know this as I had to let go of my youngest child, age 6 1/2.

If I saw any of his baby blankets, clothing or special places we had shared, the memories would start a flow of endless tears. I soon saw myself becoming very weak and ill when there were others to consider. I soon found happiness in realizing and focusing on the joy I was allowed to share as it was “quality” time or “quantity” time. I then applied this lesson to my other children. They started prioritizing their time effecting their futures.

What I have just written about the split second choice is very very true. Here is the secret of all self-control and happiness. Even to this day, 23 years later, I can bring on the tears by looking at his picture or seeing an old item that was handed down to another child/grandchild ONLY IF I put a ‘it should not have happened”, pity me- “I” miss him” thought to the moment. Each of those thoughts ring of an “I do not LIKE what happened”. BUT when looking at same pictures and items and I think how wonderful to have had that child for whatever time, my feeling world is in my control and I make HAPPY feelings.
Not easy but a VITAL lesson to master.
I helped myself by playing a mental game- Which might be true, I would act as if DAVID were looking down and would see me in grief or anger. I then reflected on this question. How would I feel if the roles were reversed? Say I had left and was completely out of any pain or fears and I saw my family WASTING away by choosing many hours of GRIEF! I understood how negatively selfish I was being…

No, it was not overnight, but I stopped the grieving sooner than I thought the ordeal would cause. I had found the real cause was still me and my thoughts.
May you MAKE comfort and peace inside.
RIVER KATE and DAVID’s mom

WHAT “IS” the ANSWER

December 4th, 2012

Searching through the dictionary I found a familiar word HUMOR but saw it differently. The word Humor comes from Latin (umor)meaning FLUID or LIQUID. Medically a humoral situation involves fluids or semi- fluids in the body. Once I studied body fluid movement I saw the next connection in my discovery, INNER CHROMOTOLOGY-the science of color moving through living tissues. When barely moving the colors slack off and act as if stuck together because of polluted waters. YEP, back to the RIVER again, my personal responsibility of my 55-65% inner water.

The best thing I can do for my inner color (and that of others-as an example) is shake the inner waters moving them faster which comes from laughing. DEEP rich long laughter, say for a minute, leaves me feeling great and strong. So I must be rebalancing the energy inside. To me H.U.M.O.R. is a Human’s Unique Method Of Rebalancing.
Since I feel so great I must be in great health. All medical check-ups say so.

Also, in living research I saw where the LIKING feeling elevates. I have more energy when I think or say “I like” while complaining or blaming leaves me tired and frustrated. So actually I am DISliking as I develop ideas/thoughts to Stop the increase or Lifting of my energy. Every LIKE I think or say speeds up my energy. I have more energy, seemingly, what is called kinetic (from moving action) and potential (available resource).

So lifting my individual kinetic (potential) energy is what LIKE is about. WOW- this is a command on unconscious level which starts a process to move the energy and rebalance. Everytime I think or say “I LIKE” I improve my inside health. I certainly maintain that HAPPY FEELING when I LIKE as opposed to the complaining dislike focus.

Oh yes happiness, this is most definitely a feeling state. I find happiness expressed as LIKING is the secret to healing. SO… the answer to staying well and ready for what comes is (drum roll,please) LAUGHTER sessions deep and long- say a minute. Laughter you say- yep! The challenge is using it when really needed as prevention.

I have found focusing on MY RIVER as my SOURCE of FEELING allows me to retrain my brain. When situations arrive where ANGER or FEAR once was my automatic response (AR)I now just practice FREEDOM of EAR and listen and come up with another view point, silently. Sometimes I share the funny thought and it becomes contagious. Let your inner intuition guide you here.

I will post soon more on the Freedoms we never speak about. For now I am off to teach my students. Practice laughing in your bathroom alone as well as in a group.
HEAL- Happiness Expressed As Liking/Laughing LIKE- LIFT Individual Kinetic Energy

OUCH! I just realized that October WAS my surprise month.

November 5th, 2012

Yep, I realized with apologetic horror- I had not posted anything in October! And so much has happened! First of all, I won another round in the Humorous contest using another speech. Then I entered the Division contest level and went over by a few seconds disqualifying. Never have I disqualified in 20 years of speaking. It was a great time. The last round was in Cincinnati, Ohio last week-end. A dear friend, an unwilling mentor, had a chance at this round.
WELL, There is next year.
My concern, now, is the election and the important choice of our people to realize “Enabling”- I have an idea and can produce a product or service unique or at least ATTEMPT to bring this idea about FROM “DISenabling”- don’t worry babe, we (government) will take care of you or better yet, send us your idea and we will decide on its merit. Accomplishment/reward by MERIT or HANDout….. that’s it.

Like a broken record, I repeat, ALL Human Energy studies show strengthening by MERIT, Creation and rightful ownership. Positive pride is the flow inside known as happiness.
I and another group brainstorming- discovered the secrets in CAPITALISM (read earlier post). The confusion is in seeing greed and unrealistic gains/actions tied to a business structure called CAPITALISM. It is the IMMORAL decisions/acts made by those who prospered so well that turn one against a structure that with MORAL decision/act is an amazing economic plan. Like any tool it matters who is handling it.

Ideas are abundant needing channeled into items or services that scientifically Better Life EVERYWHERE. Ideas that can benefit numerous people in health and safety are floating around in a vibratory level which can only be received and acted upon by persons vibrating at same level. Once the idea is shared and or manifested (made physical) lower level vibrating beings can misuse the high intentioned idea or invention.
Examples= stolen or subpressed patents, greedy profitors lower standards and sanction unsafe production ect. BUT that does not make CAPITALISM harmful.

My father owned his own car dealership. I saw the signs of pride he felt when HE WAS IN CHARGE AND COULD DECIDE TO LOWER his prices to help or SET TERMS to help. He made MORAL decisions. He created many job positions for that commnunity. He prospered annually while other dealers did not.

Other forms of governing do not promote growing toward SELF-GOVERNING. That is the prise as self-governing offers exquisite inner sensations as innate rewards.
What amazes me is the rules of governing successfully your family are the same as the rules for a larger governing body.. I KNOW IF I BAIL OUT MY CHILD, he never learns and many times repeats the wrong action. RESPECT for self and the parent is weakened. “I got away with it, so what else will I get away with next?” becomes a self-made inner dialogue all the way to jail. So why would it be different in a country, state or town?

YOU ARE NOT a victim though you can THINK and convince yourself you are.
America vibrates at a climbing level UPWARD. Our leader needs to be wise in experiencing the running a family and running a business no matter the size. TOUGH LOVE decisions must be practiced and rule of LAW respected. No dictatorship and blind experimenting carries us UPWARD regardless of intent.

I taught my children, now adults, the IN EXCHANGE FOR- negotiating power technique. WIN-WIN. We felt as “one” and had respect for individualism at same time. Whatever you as a PAPE desired, planned and showed correct operating procedures for the attainment was supported by the older members. Each helped the other when that help was positive and really necessary. “You cannot do that, let me do it, You’ll ruin it” are statements heard by over-anxious parents. I hear like wise from politicians. “I WILL DO IT- I can take over for you”. “Don’t worry I got it.”

Should we look into the family parenting success/ theory of a would be politician? Might make a difference on whom we promote.

WHEN will the eye viewing truth prevail- ALL earthlings are BROWN- just varying shades of that color. I love the darkest rich Hershey-like chocolate shade (resembling BLACK) all the way up to the dark,medium and light milk chocolate. Dark, medium and light Tans and varying shades of beiges are still in the BROWN family. BUT WHITE IS NOT.
What a misuse of time and toxic bonding energy we create by refusing to see this. Better yet, STUDY the LAW of ATTRACTION and discover just how you get what you get and get where you are. All for the sake of lessons YOU NEED. BAIL outs just postpone what was being attracted……..it must re-occur if lesson/change was not learned.. THINK before you act/vote. I look forward to the positive challenges ahead-with unnecessary restrictions removed.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY to TODD my son and my first mothering experience

September 21st, 2012

Today is the birthday of my oldest son and he is 45 young today. He is far away from where I live but we keep in touch via high tech and some snail mail..
I have my first grandchildren through him and his darling wife. Out of 7 grandchildren he fathered the only grand granddaughter, Taylor. All other grandchildren are grandsons.
I remember well my first time to be a mom, his mom. What a treat and then my brain got in the way.

Too many tapes from observations and interactions with my own parents and others while growing up left me with a decision making framework that was off the main purpose- to find inner delight in experiencing my life with … It was easy to get bogged down in routines with no gratitude energy thoughts. Why should I think such since I was as uninformed as most about making my feelings by thought.
I made it harder to get through that parenting and that of my next infant girl who was born 4 years later. Both were really wanted but I went back into my regular bossy tired self.

I pondered my unhappiness.. What was wrong here. First I tired too quickly from being the DOER. I had a most supportive husband and we shared all the chores before the child entered the scene. Then roles began to appear and carried into the next parenting episodes. I came in as my own enemy from household values of the 50′s.

Why did I have to fix all the meals, keep up the laundry, wax and polish the THINGS and do all general cleaning. Yep, at first new apartment, new marriage, new partner all appealed to me and I jumped in most excited. THEN, I realized I was not able, time-wise, to do things I wanted.
My husband came and went to his career assignments and he seemed resigned to not getting what he wanted to do either. It was a struggle to get special times together.

Then it dawned on me, now a mom of 3, that people LEARN by DOING. So that meant all my chores needed to be made child manageable, safely. I started to set up ways the children could have fun HELPING while LEARNING. I slapped on images from left-over wall paper/child’s room on small 5 gallon containers with handles. These were to hold dirty clothes. They scooted the container from their rooms to the nearby laundry room.
As they loved drawing I had them draw their ideas (plans) for meal ideas. (They later picked foreign countries studied at school and each took a turn preparing a meal a week.) As younger ones were coming into the family, Todd, then later his sisters, made sandwich fronts into faces with items from the refrigerator. Whatever was safe to do having seen the skill developing I would set up a game or child easy performance task.
The TV show Beat the clock was popular in my childhood days so that became a race approach to straightening their room or the kitchen etc.

I felt so much more energy and hubby and I often went to a nearby dance hall and enjoyed our favorite hobby ballroom dancing. We had a built in babysitter in Todd and later the oldest daughter. All were having self-made success experiences, daily. Without knowing it we were all balancing our inner color and water by those HAPPY feelings.

Todd and I had many firsts together. His first baby changing growth episodes, first to kindergarten, first to graduate from elementary school, later his first amazing driving lessons, his first basketball interest, his first girl friend, his first day at college, his first engagement and later marriage.
From 1967 to 2012, from Hawaii to the Mainland USA to Asia-India, Todd has traveled and seen many changes in our country and abroad. “nothing like home” he states as he drives into his NJ driveway.
Have a great one, Todd. Thank you for choosing me and pop. You filled our days with mucho color shocks!
