Just to let you know that I've just celebrated my 10 year anniversary of writing meditation articles for BellaOnline - 666 and counting. I did an online search on Google and couldn't find anyone who has written more meditation articles. That achievement is very satisfying to me.  Susan

Congratulations Susan. It is amazing that your content is so fresh and new feeling after all of that time. I guess that it goes to show that if you write about something that you love, everything feels new.
You are an inspiration for me.

Burt, we have an expression in The Netherlands - we work to live and not live to work. The standard work week is 36 hours instead of 40. Many people work 4 nine hour days and take 3 day weekends.

Burt, I should mention, having lived on both sides of the pond, that the Dutch are not as materialistic as Americans - not everyone owns a car, they use public transportation as we do, no designer jeans or shoes, no fast food dinners in our village. Kids spend time on biking and sports or music lessons, adults bike and walk for exercise and watch the news on tv and read - yes, read. The public school walks each class to the public library once a week.
