Welcome!

After attending the ground breaking ceremony in October, 2010, Mary Ellen Ipiotis was inspired to create a BLOG about the massive desert rose sprouting forth on sacred grounds in Sandoval County.

C'mon in! Please make yourself at home. Join me with your commentary, questions, stories, photos, video's, any information you would like to share... about the new medical center, the land it is on, the people and places in the area, anything you think people would like to know.

Mary Ellen is listening and will be on the look out for you ~

Resolution

2011 is upon us, we hope for good health of mind, body and spirit for better things in the coming year, goodness for everyone, everywhere in every way and in every direction.   We resolve to reconsider counter productive behavior and replace it with productive, positive change. Resolution sounds like revolution which brings to mind uprising, disruption, interruption and hopefully an upgrade and improvement. Resolution equates to determination, drive and can be compared to shifting gears, ramping things-up, "kicking it up a notch" taking it to another level. Gradual, gentle change has it's place but often out of necessity, resolution is the only solution and swiftly, sooner than later. 
Resolution involves clarity, literally single points of color as in pixels on a display monitor rendering sharper definition. It is simple yet complicated, it seems easy enough to declare a resolution, to desire and seek the outcome of good intentions and resolutions. Alas, reality encroaches telling us to forget about it, let it go... it's a losing battle and all the negative, doubtful thinking we slip into before we realize it, we hold ourselves in captivity with our own self-imposed limitations... but yesterday's defeatist attitude is so yesterday.  The really good news is, today is a whole new day, different then the day before. Today and tomorrow hold endless possibilities to take another approach, a turn in a new direction.
Today is another chance to be better than before, gradually, slowly or hustle and hasten to reach a goal. One day at a time we move forward in a good direction with as positive a perspective as possible, in the name of health of mind, body and spirit with strength and courage.
