Patience and perseverence have a magical effect
before which difficulties disappear and obstacles vanish.

One day at a time- this is enough.
Do not look back and grieve over the past, for it is gone;
and do not be troubled about the future, for it has not yet come,
Live in the present, and make it so beautiful that it will be worth remembering.
-Ida Scott Taylor, submitted by Laura W., Las Vegas, NV.

Good News, my Ripply Friends! The time has come for an exciting new chapter
in the life of The Ripples Project! Sometime in the next two weeks you will receive a
"Welcome to The Ripples Project's New Home!" email that will be an invitation for you to
see our new site.
In order to take advantage of a number of new features we have available in our new
home, we will need you to briefly visit the website and re-register with some basic
information (email address, etc.). We plan to invite people in small batches so we
don't overwhelm the server but if you encounter error messages, your PATIENCE is
requested....just wait revisit the site in a few minutes and it should be just fine!
Depending upon how smoothly the process goes, you may not receive next week's issue
OR it may arrive in your mailbox looking very strange (with a bunch of extra characters in
it). If you could PLEASE bear with us through this transition, I promise in a few weeks we
are all going to be very comfortable in a new home that is going to keep The Ripples
Project growing for a long time to come!!
If you have any questions or concerns, you can always email us at
Ripples@TheRipplesProject.org and
we will strive to respond within 24 hours.
Peace,

Ripples v6.39: Ripples of POSSIBILITY!

Don't rule out even the strangest of possibilities.
Keep an open mind and see where it leads you.

Create the kind of self that you
will be happy to live with all your life.
Make the most of yourself by fanning
the tiny, inner sparks of possibility
into flames of achievement.

What is possible for you this week?
I dare you to open your mind and your heart to imagine a wild adventure that could
unfold to improve your life in some significant way. Maybe a creative direction to take for
a project you're working on, or a daring step you could take with a person in your life
(propose a date or ask forgiveness or just share a good laugh!). Perhaps you have had
an itch to try something new: a type of food, a TV show, a different route home, a social
group, or even a hairdo? I am fairly sure that you are supposed to explore that possibility
and enjoy the outcome.
Peace,
Paul

Ripples v6.38: Ripples of GOING FORTH!
Ripples v6.38: Ripples of GOING FORTH!

=o=o=o=o=o=o=o= PEBBLE =o=o=o=o=o=o=o=o
Growth demands a temporary surrender of security.

How do geese know when to fly to the sun?
Who tells them the seasons?
How do we, humans, know when it is time to move on?
As with the migrant birds, so surely with us,
there in a voice within, if only we would listen to it,
that tells us so certainly to go forth into the unknown.

We need to THANK YOU in advance for your patience and understanding about the delayed unveiling of our new website. Many hours are being spent each week building and revising the site, and several of our members gave it a test drive which provided a bounty of excellent feedback that we are currently implementing.
Our current online <http://www.TheRipplesProject.org/store/browse.cfm>store will likely close next
week until the new one is up and running, so you do have this week to make purchases if you need
(and of course, we really appreciate that support!!).
Since we are working hard in the GOING FORTH department, I challenge you to listen to a voice within you and take off in some new scary/exciting direction this week. Some project large or small, related to work or home or school, some task that is begging for WOW. Take flight with it, and let us know how it goes!
Peace,
Paul
