Being in THE PRESENT is the one gift that we can all give ourselves..

     Spas are definitely mainstream and we are constantly being reminded to be in the NOW and take time for ourselves. It is time to remember the essence of SPA. Nutrition, Exercise, Pampering and Body, Mind Connection.

     Learning how to manage time so that we have enough to take care of others as well as ourselves is a gift. Often, we get into a frenzy and need to take the time to breathe and relax. Understanding that nothing is written in stone and corrections can always be made, this is the true knowledge that we obtain on this Path of Life.

     Our paths should follow a Passion. My passion is Friends of Cambodian Child's Dream Organization or CCDO. It has blossomed and spread like wildfire, inspiring youths to help others. Together we have now built over 370 Water Wells in the Siem Reap Province. We support 4 schools with permanent English Teachers and school supplies as well give scholarships to 200 children. We support an Orphanage and 3 Villages as well as a local clinic. We have clean village initiatives and have regular Travel with Purpose trips to Asia. We have an established branch in the UK under the Charities Commission.

     At home, we are giving talks on Tolerance and the effects of Genocide at schools to have the youth become aware of the real world and see how they can get involved and help. It is the ripple effect that is starting to tack traction and produce results.

     It has been one of my true joys, to see the growth of this organization and the good that is being done with the help of colleagues and friends. Together, we CAN make a difference in the lives of others.

     Please visit us on line at www.cambodianchildsdream.org where donations can be made through PayPal.

     Remember, "Good friends are like stars... You don't always see them, but you know they are always there."

     I wish you a soaring journey through the Inspiration of Life.
