HAPPY MUSINGS by Sally Huss
Want Recession-Proof Happiness?
10/23/09 (Happiness)
"Worried? Skip to the heart and
never miss a beat of happiness."
As our world changes around us, I have been observing
how people handle these changes. There is panic in some, general
fear in others. But, overall, there seems to be a sadness
in those who have known better times, and that’s most of us.
Young people are less affected by these circumstances or simply
more protected from them, except for those who are job hunting.

Musing: Want More Friends?
09/12/09 (Friendship)
"For every friend added to one's
heart, more room is made for others."
For every friend added to one's heart, more room is
made for others.
In these particularly challenging times, friends come in
handy more than ever. We need them. We want them. We can hardly
do without them, and they need us. The more the merrier.
Working in a store daily, I have the opportunity to make
and create new friends all the time. But this is a unique
situation. Not everyone has access to fresh faces. They see
the same faces daily -- a few co-workers and a few family
members. But whether you see new faces or familiar faces,
they are faces of friends, or at least potential friends.
Everyone fits that bill..(Read

Musing: Want Cary Grant's Secret To
Romance 08/25/09 (Love)
"Live in love and life will take
care of itself."
Cary Grant, one of Hollywood's all-time most popular
and romantic leading men, had a secret. It is a secret that
we could all benefit from, especially our present Hollywoodstars,
as well as the men in our own lives.
The name Cary Grant, then and today, is synonymous with elegance, charm, good looks, desirability, grace, style, and, of course, romance. There was nothing about Cary that didn't ooze with perfection - his movements, his speech, his gestures. He was subtle and delicious whether he was carrying a gun or a beautiful damsel. His leading ladies may have brought out the best in him, but more likely, it was he that brought out the best in them. There was Grace Kelly, Deborah Kerr, Ingrid Bergman, Katharine Hepburn, Eva Marie Saint, Sophia Loren, Gina Lollobridgida, Leslie Caron, Mae West, and many more.(Read full article)
Musing: How To Get Your Man (or Woman) 07/22/09 (Love)
"If you wish to have a love in your life, because you wish you will. And because you know this is true, smile until you do."
There are too many people out there without a close friend or a loved one in their life. Yet as life on the outside gets tougher, colder and more demanding, the needs of the heart become even greater.
We all need warmth and we need to share our warmth. The sun in the sky warms us on the outside, of course, but it is the sun on the inside that really warms us. It is the sun in our own hearts that likes to shine, expand and share its contents. It also likes to receive the same. Why not? That's the way we are constructed. A heart is not meant to languish. It needs to be used and exercised. Love is the answer.(Read full article)
News: Ten Stars...Wise Wonderful Fun Book. I Love This Book! 07/22/09 (Love)
MotherLodeBeth Review
As a widow I have always been science minded, but after reading Henriette Anne Klauser's book Write It Down, Make It Happen: Knowing What You Want, and Getting It I knew I was on the right path to decluttering my mind. Then this book The Law of Attraction: How to Get Your Man -- The Slam-Dunk Formula to getting the Love of Your Life by Sally Huss came into my life and it was like the fresh rain that has stopped and you look up and there is a wonderful rainbow.

News: What are they saying about "How To Get Your Man?" 07/17/09 (Love)
From M. Lapus Amazon Review
Sally Huss's book first reads like the memoirs of a beautiful and talented tennis star discovering how exciting the world can be for a young woman open to romance and adventure. At fifteen, Sally was playing tennis and spending time with an equally young Ricky Nelson. Reading about her first love affair at Wimbledon and the fun years while working for Samuel Goldwyn, Jr. at Goldwyn Studios, the anecdotes that Sally Huss recount remind me of the most glamorous aunt or family friend of my mother's generation.

Musing: The Muffin Diet 07/09/09 (Family)
"Dogs have their place in a home, usually at the head of the family"
Who doesn't like muffins? Blueberry muffins, raspberry muffins, pumpkin muffins, carrot muffins, apple cinnamon, oat bran, muffins with cherries on top, muffins with nuts, even muffins with chocolate chips!
So when my friend Brenda called to tell me about her new muffin diet, my ears perked up. It was not that I needed to lose weight, but I'm always collecting information for friends who may need a new way to attack the bulge.(Read full article)
Musing: Hooray For Real Fathers! 06/17/09 (Family)
"Your potential for greatness is greater than you think"
The day of the father is soon approaching. It is a day we honor the father or fathers in our lives. But what are fathers? To be a biological father is easy, but to be a real father is not. One takes a moment to create, the other takes a lifetime. (Read full article)
Musing: If You Think You Know What Love Is, Think Again! 06/11/09 (Life)
"To expand the heart in any direction is a good thing."
Love and the heart are some of my favorite subjects. I love to see love expressed at any opportunity and by anyone who happens to be expressing it. I think we all are richer by the love that is released into the world by each and every one of us. (Read full article)
Musing: Could We Have a Better American Idol? 05/29/09 (Life)
"A Significant Other Is Anyone In Your Presence"
As our latest American Idol stood on stage, humbly and graciously accepting his title, he revealed his generation's Achilles Heel. "ME and Adam (the runner-up) decided we would just..." It went something like that. But it's the "ME and anybody" that concerns me. I'm old enough to know and remember that "anyone comes before ME" in a sentence or a thought. (Read full article)
Who Wants to be in Love? 05/08/09 (Life)
"Goodness matters, for goodness sake!"
Everyone wants to be in love.
I live in a little coastal village in California and work in my own gallery/studio on a quiet street, off the beaten path, yet still in the village. Everyday people wander in an out and reveal their lives as they look through the happy things they see. It is amazing to me to observe how many men and women seek love and the benefits they hope it will bring to their lives. It is amazing to me to see how many people are lacking that love in their lives. (Read full article)
Forrest's Gump's Mom Was Right 04/29/09 (Life)
"Guilt is the guilty party. If it shows up, send it packing!"
I want to resurrect the place of "stupid" in our lives. More precisely, I want to raise "stupid" to a place of prominence, put it up there on a pedestal where I think it belongs.(Read full article)
Things are never the way they were 04/02/09 (Life)
"Things are never the way they were. They are simply, the way they are."
We are in a different world. Perhaps it's the same world with a different perspective. We are no longer as a country sitting on a pot of gold, leisurely indulging ourselves or following our every desire without concern. These desires might have been homes, cars, boats, travel, education for our children or grandchildren, causes to help the poor, solutions to help the sick. Now we have concerns, things to be attended to. Our priorities have changed. (Read full article)
Need money? How about a Blessing? 03/17/09 (Life)
Give a quick thought to your concerns, but a longer one to your blessings.
Well, we can't forget about our everyday life and our everyday demands and our everyday bills, but we mustn't let them consume us. Yes, a quick thought devoted to our concerns, then a plan of action, and then the best part -- thoughts about our blessings. There is no end to those. (Read full article)
Toes Are People Too 03/13/09 (Kindness)
The need to express kindness is as great as the need to receive kindness. Kindly do your part.
It was a cold, rainy day in La Jolla . Unusual, although it was winter, it was still unusual for the area. That's why I figured my son ended up coming into our art gallery one morning with a big bulky jacket on and nothing to cover his feet but sandals. He always wears sandals, as do many young people in this beach community. It's part of the dress code here. (Read full article)
Way Beyond Words is the Heart 03/04/09 (Life)
"Way beyond words is the heart. Fortunately, it's so close. "
It is now that seems to be difficult. It is now that seems to be messy. It used to be before that people thought times were difficult, but now it's now.
People are scrambling to find a safe haven. They are gathering their goods and loved ones and holding on. They are fearful of a future that is not here but pretends to be here and is forecast to be coming. (Read full article)
What is the Most Important Thing to know Right Now? 02/17/09 (Life)
"Goodness matters, for goodness sake! "
As I woke up this morning with the remnants of a mildly disturbing dream lingering in my head, I thought that it would be nice to have a perfect bedtime story to read to myself every night before dropping off to sleep. It would set things right for the mind. Naturally a prayer or two are helpful as is the practice of counting one's blessings. But I thought that a magical bedtime story would be wonderful, one that went deep into oneself and planted the perfect thoughts. (Read full article)
