The Recipe

I told her the recipe for happiness is taking a walk each day preferably with her canine friend. And to write her heart out in a ten cent notebook. This will change your brain! THIS is therapy beyond belief. I tell her. It's brain surgery without the blood. Empty out your loves and worries and wishes and fears. Only then can you have room to 'take in' your life.

Most people go around so filled up they miss their minute to minute life. I call it my spittoon notebook or "Milking the cow!" You must milk the cow morning and night, 365 days a year no matter what or it will be in agony and get sick. This is why I have always wanted a cow. I like the metaphoric ritual for a practice in my life.
