at least don't hurt them." -- Dalai Lama

I have wandered from a vibrant corner of the world, Thailand, to the bustling city of Boston. And again, to the tranquil beauty of the Olympic Peninsula in Washington. 

I have found my place!

After a fulfilling career spanning 16 years in the corporate world and 22 years in real estate, I have entered a new chapter of life---retirement. As a proud grandmother, I cherish every moment with my precious family. In the remaining hours, I am ready to pursue my lifelong passion for writing!

I invite you to follow my new journey via my heart and soul into a book brimming with uplifting tales, ready to inspire anyone who seeks a glimpse of true inspiration.

Good morning Aura. What a great place the world would be if all followed the words of the Dalai Lama! Enjoy your day.

Aura,

Kindness is one of our favorite words, and we love spreading it!  My favorite quote from the Dalai Lama is "Be kind whenever possible, it is always possible!"  A

Absolutely. Imagine if every human being on the planet acted out of kindness for one entire week. Think it would stick? :)

Hi, Roy Kelley, I watched the news about the snow over the weekend. It brought back memory and reason why I left Boston! I hope you are doing OK.
