I have a little secret that I would like to confess and I am not going to postpone it any longer… I am an addict and frequent user … of Facebook.  I know there are those amongst us who cast aspersions and make judgment calls about those who use it, but I love the ease in which it has enabled me to stay in contact with friends, family and acquaintances.

I’ve always been a big believer in good manners. As a child I’m sure at times I felt aggravated by being constantly reminded to begin and end every request with a please or a thank you, yet now it has become such an unconscious act, that the only time I give it thought, is in their absence, either by my own erroneous omission, or more commonly by others.

One might think that something as innate as breathing would be something we all naturally do well, yet it in my own experience and from observing others, as much as of course we breathe, many of us, most of the time, do not breathe optimally. One could be forgiven for thinking I’m stating the obvious here, but breathing is really important! Not just in as much that if we stop breathing, we cease to exist.
