“If you could eliminate one day from your past so that you never had to live through it, what day would you erase?”



“If you could ask a single question of a dead relative, what would it be and of whom would you ask it?”



These questions come from a little book I’ve been reading as a way to begin the New Year. If. . . Questions for the Game of Life by Evelyn McFarlane and James Saywell (Villard, 1995) My partner and I have been playing it, one of us throwing out a question, and then both of us sharing responses.



Some questions are easy and fun: “If you had the chance to make any one purchase that you passed up in your lifetime, what would it be?” (Ah, no contest! The set of antique china we found on the Oregon coast some 8 years ago but were too timid to buy.”



Others are a challenge: “If you could choose the very last thing you will see before death, what would it be?” (That took some reflection, but, although I’m not a gardener, what I think I’d most want to see is perfect, full-blown rose.)



Still others plunge us into an intimacy we may or may not have considered: “What is the one thing from your past about which you feel the most guilty?” (OK, so I’m chicken – I pass!)



It’s a fun game, and a good relationship-builder. And yet I wonder: what happens if I go a step farther, take the initiative of shaping the questions I need to hear.



IF . . . I want to make this year the best one of my life, what one attitude will I change, starting right now?



IF . . . I truly believe that hope is possible and love is real, how will I let it show?



IF . . . I want to live so that my values show, what one thing will I do TODAY?



Your questions may be different from mine, and your answers surely will. But that’s the beauty of the “Game of Life”. There are as many questions as you need. And only YOU can shape the answers - IF . . . you only take your values in hand and dare to begin.

2. How To Make A Jogger Smile
Have you ever wondered why joggers, as they plod forth in grim determination, never smile? It's something that mystified me occasionally, as I enjoy my walk along a country path with my dog. And then I finally figured it out. Well, at least I think I did. Not far from where I live, there is a disused old railway line. It's an overgrown lane now and a rather pretty place to walk - far from traffic noise, with hedges and shrubs on either side, bursting with birdsong and the innocent beauty of coun…

Become your own GuruBy Linda Landry (c)I have been an Internet 'marketeer' now for nearly a year.

I would get lost in cyberspace because I was redirected to sites offering to tell me howto become rich with little or no money to invest. It was usually anE-book they were selling. I purchased a few and I learned somethings but mostly that the way to become rich was to sell theirinformati…

4. What is success and how do we achieve it?
To be clear about what success is must be the first step to achieving success. So far, the best definition I have come across is: 'Success is the completion of anything intended'.In other words success is finishing what you planned to do. This shines a light on failure and success.Make a plan and follow it and you will have succeeded. Make a plan and do not follow it and you will have failed. This gives a yard stick for judging every day of our lives. We can say at the end of the day 'I have fa…
