Giving Thanks

Bob, Sofia and I would like to take this opportunity to thank all of our wonderful family, friends and client/customers who have been so loving and supportive of us and our new business. We really couldn't do this without all of you!

I would also like to take this opportunity to share my reflections over the past few weeks especially regarding my last post. Have you noticed how fear is so prevalent in our societal structure? Starting at such a young and tender age in school our children learn motivated by the fear of failure. What kind of society are we creating if this is the foundation we give our children?

This reality has always made me sad.

So I was horrified when I re-read my lst post and realized that I, too have fallen victim to using fear as a motivator. I felt like Dick"you're going to die"Cheney. . .

I wish to offer my heartfelt apology to anyone who read my lst post, not because the information was false, but because the delivery does not accurately represent who I am and how I view the world.

I have always felt that the best way to teach is to live by example. To always try our best to model loving and compassionate responses when frustrated and angry and to choose hope over fear at all costs.

Can you think of a better gift to give our children this Holiday season?

Thanks again for your love, understanding and support!

Bob, Sofia and I will be in Chicago visiting friends and family for Thanksgiving but we will be back to work filling your orders on Friday.

Namaste,
Maria, Bob and Sofia
