Can you say Just?

I am in love with SwissJust. It is a line of natural products made in Switzerland. I found out about them about 5 years ago but was unable to find them for a long time. Now they are being sold in the U.S. again--in fact--I am selling them! I have examined many direct-sell businesses over the last 10 years and I have HATED them all. I guess I just had to wait for the right one.

It turns out that I have actually seen where they are made in Switzerland. In the early '90s I took 2 trips to Austria, Germany and Switzerland. I saw spectacular beauty everywhere I went. Even if you look at Walzenhausen, Switzerland on Googlemaps, it is beautiful. So I know where this stuff comes from and I completely trust that it is of the highest quality.

I don't like blogs about selling stuff or about illnesses so I won't go into detail here. Check out Swissjustusa.com (I still can't figure out how to add links to this darn thing) DARN! Ask me about Herbal 31 or Anti-stress activator! Talk to me! Or email me. Whatever.

Oh yeah, it is pronounced "Yoost" not "Just".

Meniere's madness!

Quick post to say I have been knocked down a bit by Meniere's for the last little while. I feel great today though. No screaming in my ear etc. I can hear pretty well. More later! It is such a blessing to hear and know what the f..... is going on around you....!

B+

Humility. I am trying to develop some. I think it is about time. I asked what I could change about myself in order to be easier to get along with. And the answer was to see my true self and accept it.

This is very new ground to me. I have always wanted to be smarter than I really am. But I am only "B+" smart. This is enormously difficult to recognize and even harder to accept.

There are some pretty smart people in my family. I love them very much. I wish I was as smart as they are but I just am not. I swear that this has been nagging at me for the whole time I have been here. Oh, by "here" I mean "alive on this earth"--I will go into that subject some other time.

Its OK that I am not as smart or as accomplished as some other people. (Weaknesses: spelling, math and patience) I have to cultivate the talents that I have. What the heck are they? I probably don't even know because I have been so busy trying to be smart. I am not brilliant. I am darn smart but not brilliant. I've got to love myself anyway.

No one loves me less because I am not brilliant. But they may not love me much if I am always trying to prove how smart I am. Smarty-pants, pesto Julie.

So humility. I hope I am using the word right. I better look it up.

Every day in every way I am getting nicer. Affirmation time. Anyone happy about this?

What has prompted this revelation? I am determined to be pleasant to live with and to be pleasant to be around at all. I am going to shut-up and listen now.
