Hi everybody,

Jim and I are back from a beautiful vacation in Maui. Woweeee Zoweee! So great. So relaxing. Such heaven. I snorkled, I swam, I got facials and massages, and water termed (pronounced “term - maid”), I went horseback riding, and even golfed at The Wailea Resort, Emerald Course. That made Jim very happy. We had a great time. And Emmie had a great time with her cousins and our incredible friends at Donna’s Daycare. Our friend, Steve Austin, from Babylon 5 was kind enough to house sit, and took really good care of our cat, Fidji, so all in all, life feels very good right now.

I thought you all might want to check out the attached email with news of the project I have been cast in. I hope you will check out the website and sign in on the guest book if you haven’t yet done so. By the way, a friend I made in Sydney, Australia last October I introduced to the team at “Psy Ops” and I’m happy to say she seems interested in participating in the project as well. I’m sure you all know her from “Farscape.” I’m talking about Virginia Hey. Isn’t that great? She is such a really wonderful person.

Well, still need to unpack and get back to the real world. So, I’m signing off and sending my love and thanks to all.

Ta,
Maggie

Hi everybody,

I loved this note from my friend and just wanted to pass on these great words to live by.

This is what The Dalai Lama has to say on the millennium, which began 01/01/2001…

Instructions for Life in the new millennium from the Dalai Lama:

1. Take into account that great love and great achievements involve great risk.

2. When you lose, don’t lose the lesson.

3. Follow the three R’s: Respect for self, respect for others responsibility for all your actions.

4. Remember that not getting what you want is sometimes a wonderful stroke of luck

5. Learn the rules so you know how to break them properly.

6. Don’t let a little dispute injure a great friendship.

7. When you realize you’ve made a mistake, take immediate steps to correct it.

8. Spend some time alone every day.

9. Open your arms to change, but don’t let go of your values.

10. Remember that silence is sometimes the best answer.

11. Live a good, honorable life. Then when you get older and think back, you’ll be able to enjoy it a second time.

12. A loving atmosphere in your home is the foundation for your life.

13. In disagreements with loved ones, deal only with the current situation. Don’t bring up the past.

14. Share your knowledge. It’s a way to achieve immortality.

15. Be gentle with the earth.

16. Once a year, go someplace you’ve never been before.

17. Remember that the best relationship is one in which your love for each other exceeds your need for each other.

18. Judge your success by what you had to give up in order to get it.

19. Approach love and cooking with reckless abandon.

Hope this note finds you all happy, healthy and prosperous.

Love,
