Feng Shui

I am taking a Feng Shui course at the Lifelong Learning College. The class is taught by Dr. Ina Anderson, a bright, interesting person that I met at a discussion group at All About Art, a little boutique in Bellview. She has a wonderful broad based knowledge of the subject and a common sense Westernized approached to this ancient Chinese art. I am learning a great deal and am committed to organizing my messy life to help better channel my chi (energy).

One afternoon at the square last year RC and I were leisurely enjoying the busy season bustle and warm sun, when this guy taps RC on the shoulder. He says “Don’t you just love this place?” A total stranger couldn’t contain his enthusiasm any longer and just had to share his feelings about where we live. How many communities can boast that kind of resident reaction? We are truly blessed to be retired to TV.

I know there are problems and inequities in TV. I am generally glad that people like the POA are functioning in a watchdog role, but I can’t imagine why someone would choose to occupy the larger part of their lives to focus on the negative aspects of this place that we have chosen to live. Me, I am currently content to revel in the 90 percent good stuff that is going on in my life.

We joked when we first came to visit TV 5 years ago, that they put funny stuff in the water supply to make everyone so happy. The truth is that I have observed the community watch trucks spraying something late at night. Mosquito spray they claim, Prozac I suspect. Don’t you just love it here?
