Life is currently described in one of four ways: a
journey, a battle, a pilgrimage, or a race. Select your own
metaphors, but the necessity of finishing is all the same.
For if life is a journey, it must be completed. If life is a
battle, it must be finished. If life is a pilgrimage, it must
be concluded. And if life is a race, it must be won.

The Hope I leart Institute, in Seattle, gave some
helpful hints on how to remember better...Pay at-
tention. When we can't remember something, it’s
often because we weren't focusing well enough at
the time to store that moment in our memories.
Write it down...Make lists, put notes on your cal-
endar. Just the act of writing something down helps
forge a memory. Make mind pictures. Use mental
images to help you remember better. Get in a rou-
tine. Always put often-used items such as your
wallet, glasses, and keys in the same place. Practice
- To remember faces and names. Listen carefully

Received information from Mike and Janice
Petty, who have just bought a beautiful home in St.
Croix, Virgin Island. The pictures of their home are
out ot sight. After retiring from the real world, the
Petty's are now relaxing and doing volunteer work.
Both enjoy working with children. (Janice is the
niece of Frances Coffey and Harry Waters).
FORGIVENESS... Take a potato and write on it the
name of a person who has fallen from grace with you...
Do this for everyone who has raised your ire and never
received your forgiveness. When you've finished, gather
all your potatoes together and place them in a sack. Keep
this sack next to you at all times. Take it to work. Take if
to lunch. Take it everywhere you go. And always have it
with you at home. How long would it take for you to
grow tired of carrying this burden around? How long
would it take your potatoes to sprout into other things,
fester, and smell? Wouldn 't it be nice to be free from the
weight, stench, and constant reminder of hurt, disap-
pointment, heartache, and anger? By hanging on to
things that are unpleasant, we create more anguish for
ourselves. When you forgive someone, you free yourself
from an oppressive load of negativity. Forgiveness allorvs
you to create peace in your life.
