Do you have a very special bottle of wine or Champaign that you have been holding for a long time just waiting for a special occasion that you can drink it to celebrate? Well you have a reason to open that bottle on February 28, 2009 which has been named “Open That Bottle Night”. This date was created for our enjoyment by Dorothy J. Gaiter and John Brecher , Wall Street journal’s wine columnists, who created the date with one goal in mind: Open the bottle of wine that has laid around and gathered dust for years in hopes of a special celebration.Many times when that special moment arrives, it’s too late; The wine has already grown old or even died. I know that this is a fact because our son gave us a bottle of Dom Perion Champaign

Did you see the video of the woman who had a temper tantrum at an airport, recently? In case you missed it here is a brief report of the incident. There was a woman at an Asian Airport who missed her plane because she was late getting to the airport and instead of trying to work with the airline officials to get another flight as soon as possible, she chose to act like a two year old that didn’t get their way having a major temper tantrum. She kicked, yelled, threw things, screamed, cried, passed out on the floor and etcetera. While she did all of this the airline staffed worked compassionately with her to calm her down and put her on another fight to her destination. She had better be glad that she was not in the states because she would probably have gone to jail for obstruction of justice as well as for breaching security. Let’s all learn our lesson from this incident and allow ourselves enough time to get in and out of airports.

When I heard last week that one lady’s monkey had attacked
her friend and left her in critical condition, I knew that something fishy was
going on between that monkey and the owner. I later discovered that I was right.
In case you didn’t read the story, there was one lady who owned a pet monkey
and she treated him like a human since her husband and child died. They drank wine
from a long stem glass, ate together and did a lot of stuff together that
normally humans do together. One day last week the monkey went bananas and she
called her friend to come and help her get the monkey in control. The monkey
then jumped on the friend and the police had to be called because now the
monkey was berserk and about to kill the friend. The police killed the monkey
and saved the friend’s life; even though, the friend is still in critical
condition and is in need of a facelift. So don’t try to humanize animals
because you will confuse them and they may do anything to you or someone that
you love. Just let animals be animals.

 You also may need training in some instances to find prosperity and an example of this is two men decided to go into business and purchased a small truck without any knowledge of this type of business. They went to Mississippi and purchased a load of 100 melons that cost them $100,000. They went to Chicago and sold them at $1.00 a piece. They sold them all and when they counted the money one man said we didn’t make any money and the other man said we need a larger truck. This shows that they need some training. So in order for you to be successful in some businesses you need to have some knowledge about what you are doing before you open it up. 

As I began my work/ vacation a week ago, I decided that I was going to help this economy by putting the law of giving into effect. I made up my mind to give to any person who provided a service ito me a healthy tip. From the time that I left home I gave abundantly to  all wait staff, butlers, cooks, skycaps and any and everyone that I met. They were all open and receptive to receive their prosperity which was reflected to me through their overall attitude of going about their work in a positive manner. When I gave them a tip they received it graciously. Then, today, I meet one of the most non receptive workers that I had ever met, I spoke to her and she literally turned up her nose and I tried a few other times to engage her in conversation only to be snubbed.I thought about giving her a tip any way and decided that I couldn’t because she was by no means ready to receive.

She cut off her blessing and her pocketbook is a few dollars shorter that tit could be if she had been open to receive her prosperity. I’m here to tell you that she has lost out on a lot of her blessings because of her ungrateful attitude. So always be open and receptive so that you can receive all of the prosperity that in store for you.

When traveling on an airplane, you may be seated by a person with pleasant personality or one who is not so cheerful. Since a lot of this is out of your control, enter into the airplane with an open mind, be open and receptive to whomever you meet, be pleasant and always speak even if they don’t speak back to you. Allow the other person to take the lead as to whether or not they want to talk to you while in flight. Always take along books or games to entertain yourself and if you would like to read while in the air and not hold a conversation, it’s ok for address the other party nicely and return to whatever you want to do while flying to your destination. Happy Traveling!

I was watching the news last night on a Florida station and I saw a story about a couple of female friends who got into a confrontation at their home. One of them made a call to the police to ask for help to break up the fight because the fight was getting serious. By the time that the police back up arrived one of the ladies was about to stab the other with a fork, the police pulled out his weapon and when the perpetrator didn’t respond to his call to stop and drop, he shot and killed her. The friend who the dead lady was fighting was crying and up set because her friend had been killed and she told the news person that her dead friend was the kindest person that she knew. Hey this situation should have not gotten to this point. The lesson here is if you don’t get along with a room mate, go and get your own place. This may save a life, your life.

Look within yourself to find your happiness because it is found deep down inside your soul and you don’t really need any other human being to be happy. Sure it would be nice to have a mate to share your life with but while you are waiting, vow to make yourself as happy as you can by utilizing the many resources available to you. You can pray, meditate, read, take a walk, soak in a long refreshing bath, give yourself a facial, manicure or pedicure and write a journal only giving you a few of the things that you can enjoy by yourself. G Mama encourages you to stop worrying about finding your happiness because real happiness comes from within your self. So zap some whenever you need it!

G mama wants you to get rid of your fears so that you can live your dreams. A lot of us are not living our dreams simply because we are too afraid to step out and do whatever you we need to do to live our dream. I am here to tell you today that your fear is only an appearance in your life so go ahead and feel the fear and move on to your goals and aspirations. Most people feel fear when they are about to embark upon a new dream. The difference in successful people and unsuccessful people is that successful people feel fear and do whatever they need to do to find success and unsuccessful people feel the fear and give up. G Mama wants you to know that you can be successful at whatever you choose to do so feel the fear, it’s a normal feeling and work toward fulfilling your goals in life.

Breaking up with a mate is hard because you are accustomed to living your life with them and now they are gone and you will have to fend for yourself. I have a few tips to share with you that may help you with your relationship breakup.

First of all when you find yourself in a breakup calm yourself down, now release the other person to their highest good, forgive them so that you can move on with your life, believe that you can be happy without the other person in your life and claim your happiness.

After a breakup you can also make sure that you keep yourself busy, spend time with your family and friends and most important of all you need to love your self. If these tips don’t work for you within a reasonable length of time then you need to seek professional help. The important thing is that you can get over a relationship breakup.
