As I review notes and prepare for these upcoming classes, I am acutely aware that only 1% of this subscriber list has clicked on the information page on eteletours.com. Here you will find course specifics and testimonials from previous participants.

Given the enthusiastic responses of previous classmates I wanted to make certain that you all have taken the opportunity to see what's available and then choose; thus this special, additional mailing of Picture to Ponder. Please accept my invitation and click on CLASSES .

In addition, if you know people who might be interested in discovering new things about themselves and their environments, please pass on the course link http://www.eteletours.com/photo_creativity406.html

Dutchman's Pipe Aristolochia Grandiflora

TODAY'S PHOTO -
Dutchman's Pipes, or Aristolochia Grandiflora, in Butterfly World, Coconut Creek, FL

As I was looking through photos to select one for a symbol for the course I chose this one because, to me, it has a feeling of abundance and being full of life waiting/wanting to expand. According to one of the signs at Butterfly World the Dutchman's Pipe is used by butterflies as a caterpillar host plant. See also Open Pipe.

SELF-REFLECTING QUERIES -
This issue comes to you after my listening to a lot of "noise" in my head - "should I"s and "shouldn't I"s. The bottom line result is my being honest and true to myself by coming out with this Sunday edition.

I provide a wonderful service here with Picture to Ponder, one which I enjoy giving and which most of you appreciate receiving. At the same time, I AM in business and I have a program to sell which WILL make a difference for the participants. There is NO reason for me to be uncomfortable about it or to attempt to be subtle about it! It's simply a matter of My Speaking, Offering and Your Choosing, or not. No attachments on either of our parts.

Now back in your court and your life. Is there one thing or things that you've been dancing around expressing - telling or asking someone? If so, I invite you to be direct. Reflect for a moment, "What is it you WOULD like to say?" "Will your speaking, or writing, make a difference for you and the other person?" If so, come straight out and to the point. Speak.

Out of my taking action and starting to speak the course, 3 or 4 weeks ago, I have already met several new people among the registrants. I am excited by them. I am humbled by their trust and I am really looking forward to the FUN we are going to have as we play together and discover new things!

Do you want one last chance? Come play with us in PHOTO/CREATIVITY.
As always, thank you for your contribution to my own growth and development.
