Hello Super-Stars! I hope you are all doing well. I have written about discrimination in several of my blog postings, but I feel the topic is worth revisiting whenever possible. Discrimination is the result of many variables and, in some cases, is taught as a way of life. The root of this problem is the judgment made against another just because of their skin color or ethnic background, the way they look (IE. over- or under-weight, not outwardly attractive, or the way they dress, etc.), or any number of other reasons. The bottom line is that I wonder why we spend so much time judging others? Are we so deficient in our own self-esteem that we must put others down in order to lift our own egos?
Think about how you would feel if you were the person being judged...would you be self-conscious, would you always be worrying what others thought of you and, would you carry the burden of that scrutiny? Or, are you confident of who you are as a person? If you are confident in yourself, regardless of what another may think, I believe you will find happiness and abundance in this life. Please don't let what another thinks rule or sway the decisions you make on how to live your life. Your life is your own. If you do the best you are able to everyday, then you are doing your part to enable the Universe's ebb and flow to consistently find balance.
Judgment of others is a bad habit that is worth eradicating from your life. Pay attention to your thoughts and actions and refine them in order to add Love, Civility and Peace to the Universal flow. The continual adjustments we make to live a value-driven life in order to attract the best possible outcome for our own existence is worth our time and dedication. A "Super-Star" life is a work of art that is constantly being adjusted, rethought and redirected to attract the Universe's best attributes.
Think - Live - Be - A Super-Star!
In love & light and, with much appreciation,
Glenna :-)

Appreciation
Hello Super-Stars! I hope you are all doing well. Appreciating the people in our lives is an important part of the process of nurturing our relationships and promoting Love. We may show our appreciation in a variety of ways - verbally, with actions or, a combination of both. It is important to let our family members know how much we appreciate having them in our lives and letting them know we love them, even when they might not act as we wish they would. Their decisions are their own and it is up to us to respect those decisions. Either way, appreciating our family members nurtures them but, is also self-serving because the benefit of Love is never wasted.
Appreciating our spouses or partners...an extension of our family ties...is important so that they know we are not taking them for granted; that they know having them in our lives is important and special; that they know we choose to be with them because of our Love for them and more. It is just as important to receive appreciation in return for all those reasons. Love is the bond of the relationship; however, knowing you are appreciated and, being reminded that you are, will definitely strengthen the relationship.
Our friends are also an important and vital part of our lives. Taking the time to let them know how much their friendship means to us is paramount to maintaining a healthy and lasting bond. We Love our friends for who they are and hopefully we wisely choose those with whom we intend to spend time and emotional expense. Trust and Love will bear out in the long-term. Just remember to appreciate those people in your life who have impact and whom you Love; the reward will be worth the effort.

Happy Flag Day and Father's Day
Hello Super-Stars! I hope you are all doing well. Today is the 231st anniversary of the creation of the flag of the United States of America, in 1977. The United States flag means various things to different people, but essentially, it represents the symbolism of the freedom and unity this country fought for, and attained, so many years ago. The founding fathers and their steadfast dedication to creating "A More Perfect Nation" is still, to this day, a work in progress. Today, however, I say, "Happy Flag Day," to all the Super-Stars of this great country; and, other Countries around the world that have embraced democracy...past, present and future.
The responsibility to uphold and fine-tune the ideals that were set forth in the United States Declaration of Independence, Constitution and Bill of Rights is an on-going process which must be addressed with human rights, dignity and freedom as the foundation upon which together we will build a better world. The Universe is depending on all Super-Stars to help in the formation of "A More Perfect World," through our thoughts and actions. Every one of us has the power to transform our world. Always strive to be and expect the best; this is the power that will spread the Light.
This is also Father's Day Weekend and I would like to pay tribute to my father, who passed away last year. He was a wonderful man who was a Gentleman, an avid and passionate golfer and, someone who lived a values-driven life...a Super-Star in his own right. I miss him and will always be grateful for his fine example and the many lessons I learned over the years of what it means to have values and how to live by them. He was also a patriot who believed strongly in Country and honor. Happy Father's Day, Dada...I know you are on the links in Heaven having as fine a round of golf as you ever imagined. What's that...a hole-in-one on every hole? I knew you had it in you! Love, hugs and kisses from your baby girl.
Think - Live - Be - A Super-Star!
With love & light and, much appreciation,
Glenna :-)
p.s. Prayers and sympathy to the family of Tim Russert as they grieve the loss of a great son, brother, husband and father. Tim, you too were a Super-Star who lived a full life in such a short time...you will be missed and mourned by millions. Thank you for your service to the world.

Peace In Our Lifetime
Hello Super-Stars! I hope you are all doing well. Peace, the seemingly ever elusive worldwide existence, is just around the corner; we need only look inside our collective hearts to find the solution. Our yearning to enjoy worldwide Peace is over when we speak with love and understanding; when we respect the ideas and ideals of others, as they respect ours; and, when hate is conquered by the love that lies within. Peace is not a dream, but a realized outcome of the work of all Super-Stars.
Peace in our lifetime is a reality that we must continue working toward; which is only a breath away; which we must believe is happening NOW! Putting the energy into the Universe that Peace has already taken hold is the key to its being. The Universe is depending on our collective thoughts and actions in order to settle the long-standing disputes that are now being resolved to the satisfaction of all involved. Our differences, and our common goals alike, are the bedrock of Peace. Without the ebb and flow of these opposites the world would be out-of-balance.
Spread the Peace with your very being; be the catalyst that is Peace incarnate; be the Peace that the Universal flow is spreading as we live and breathe. Peace is descending upon the world by leaps and bounds because of your work and energy. Keep the energy focused and strong with your belief that Peace is at last in the here and NOW! Peace in our lifetime is a reality we must believe is around the corner if we would just look and see.

Civil Rights
Hello Super-Stars! I hope you are all doing well. The month of June is symbolic of many historical Civil Rights accomplishments, as well as a time of celebration for other significant civility causes. June 6, 1944 saw the invasion of Normandy as the Allied forces invaded France to battle the Nazi regime and realize the eventual victory for the European Continent over oppression and genocide, which had been waged by tyrannical fanatics; the result of much sacrifice for the cause of civility and peace.
June 14th celebrates the adoption of the United States' flag, in 1777, as a symbol of our nation's freedom as a country. The flag has evolved and changed over these many years, just as America has done. Many civil rights's conquests have been waged and realized. Just this week, the Democratic National Committee has chosen an African-American gentleman, Barack Obama, to be the nominee of their party for the general Presidential election. Today, Senator Hillary Clinton graciously conceded her defeat in the Primary process; but again, having a woman as a Presidential candidate is historically significant and ground-breaking. We are witnessing history as we continue to move forward as a nation.
June is also the month that Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual and Transgender (GLBT) people celebrate Pride events, which are being held around the country, to promote civil rights in that arena. As a lesbian, this topic is especially personal to me; I am a proud American and feel I am entitled as such to the many rights enjoyed, and taken for granted, by my heterosexual counterparts and friends. Yes, the cause for civil rights is ongoing; prejudice is alive and well...not just in America, but around the world, and I feel it is our responsibility to continue the push forward until ALL people are treated with respect and dignity. Promoting Love, Civility and Peace as a Super-Star is worth the effort, and history will eventually tell the story of our continued and combined conquests.
