Learn from the Butterfly

Maya Angelou

One of many countless words of wisdom from this remarkable woman who graced humanity with her powerful spirit. Thank you Maya Angelou for inspiring and moving us towards the light with your life's journey. 

I was so lucky to hear her speak at Ithaca commencement 1999. Very saddened to hear of her passing today....what an unbelievable human being.

Walt Whitman iPad inspiration

 Have you seen the recent out-of-this-world iPad commercial? Of course the Apple gurus of advertising have done it again and this mini masterpiece is breathtaking. It features a speech by Walt Whitman that Robin Williams’ character gives in Dead Poets Society. It's the last line that completely slays me. Enjoy.

O Me! O Life!
BY WALT WHITMAN
Oh me! Oh life! of the questions of these recurring,
Of the endless trains of the faithless, of cities fill’d with the foolish,
Of myself forever reproaching myself, (for who more foolish than I, and who more faithless?)
Of eyes that vainly crave the light, of the objects mean, of the struggle ever renew’d,
Of the poor results of all, of the plodding and sordid crowds I see around me,
Of the empty and useless years of the rest, with the rest me intertwined,
The question, O me! so sad, recurring—What good amid these, O me, O life?
Answer.
That you are here—that life exists and identity,
That the powerful play goes on, and you may contribute a verse.

Arbonne Global Training Conference 2014

Well I am at a loss for words. Arbonne has the most integrity of any company I have ever worked for, truly a family business going global, leaders passionate about helping others, green through and through, and I am so proud to be a part of this organization.
I could go on for days but this manifesto says it all.

As I sit here typing this and sipping on my vegan chocolate protein peanut butter banana coffee smoothie, (oh so so yummy) I am overwhelmed thinking of how many people could use Arbonne in their lives. 

I couldn't believe this was the new graffiti near my apt the day before I left! Normally I get annoyed by it, but considering they are our mantras I took it literally as a sign. ;)

My beautiful fearless leader Asha Lapps

I have always loved doing makeup as additional income to my acting career because I really feel like it's a service industry. I love making people feel more confident and better about themselves. By layering Arbonne into the mix, I am able to empower other to become leaders and business men and women. We lift each other up, help our teams, instead of all vying for the same "part" in a show.

Puttin on the Ritz Carlton

Spent two ravishing weeks at the Ritz Carlton Golf Resort in Naples Florida. Yes, the Ritz is physically stunningly beautiful, but what made it really special was the staff.  It reminded me of my Crystal Cruise line days (ah such a distant memory now) where the people who work for the company make the company.  Wonderful service, flawless weather and palm trees for days. After a
looooooooooooooooooooooooooooooong

winter this was cathartic and borderline religious experience. 

Yes that word deserved that many o's. ;)

Rupert's first trip on a plane! He did great.

Even the shrubbery is beautiful in the tropics.

Cupcakes for days!!! #glutencoma

INCREDIBLE dinner at the Ritz Carlton beach resort Grill Restaurant.

At the valet....!!!! (sung to at the ballet from Chorus Line)

All things green.

Rupert loves all things green!!

Told you the service was amazing!

Our wonderful stewardess even made one of Rupert!

Got to see this dear friend who lives in Naples now with her family...

My walks with Rupert were slightly better than the ones in Jersey. No offense Jersey.

Happy Easter!
