A Prescription for Happiness in the New Year

A Prescription for Happiness in the New Year
By Dick Snyder, Perkinsville, NY
12/2010

Everyday above ground is a good day!

Furthermore, everyday is pregnant with potential for happiness.

Let's see ...
What strategies can we use to give birth to this potential?

I know ...
By becoming a trader in the wonderful but wacky game of life.

Let's see ...
What all can we trade?

We can trade in boredom and stagnation for small activities of enjoyment and accomplishment.

We can trade in frowns and negativity for smiles, levity, laughter, and other expressions of affirmation.

We can trade in criticism for being appreciative for the good in everyone, and by over-looking shortcomings and imperfections.

We can trade in anger and impatience for forgiveness and acceptance.

We can trade in self-centeredness for being on the lookout for opportunities to provide acts of kindness and assistance, thereby making manifest our feelings of compassion.

We can trade in fear and worry about life's uncertainties for courage and trust that things will work out.

We can trade in jealousy and envy for contentment and satisfaction.

We can trade in inactivity for both physical and mental activities, recognizing that there is a strong mind-body connection.

As problems arise, we can trade in over-reaction for a calm and thoughtful assessment of the problem.

Then by making a list of all possible solutions.
Then taking the same corrective action as we would advise a best friend to take.
Indeed by so doing we can become our very own best friend.
If the problem is so complex that it cannot be totally resolved, then we must decide how it can best be managed.

Remember this ...
Everyday above ground is a good day!
Everyday of our New Year can become happier and more satisfying.

By reviewing this prescription on a daily basis,
We can become a fantastic winner in the game of life.
We need not let life become a desperate struggle.

Let us leap out of bed each morning and greet our new day ...
Embrace and love it.

Isn't life awesome?

Larry Herbstritt

Although Larry Herbstritt has spent most of his broad professional music career working in L.A. & Nashville, we think he's done much of his finest work right here in Potter County. Whether leading Ollie & the Go Gos, playing with the Rockaholics & Every Tom, Jeff, & Larry, or his fantastic concert of his own original pieces last Winter at Cafe Olga, we've felt very fortunate to be part of the audience.

Due to many requests of fans & friends, once again Larry will perform a concert of his original music for Cafe Olga patrons. Two of Larry's proteges, Christin Dubots & Gabe Trimbur will be joining him for a few numbers.

We cannot wait for this Saturday evening & cannot think of a better way to 'musically' conclude celebrating 10 years of being in business & our first year anniversary in our new location & to kick off a lot of great music in the month of December than with a concert by Larry Herbstritt. We're extremely blessed to have Larry as a friend & to have him as part of our community. We hope you can join us for this special concert.

After spending the first half of 2010 playing concerts & recording, the band has emerged with the album "On Safari," which was recorded independently with veteran Nashville engineer Marc Frigo. The album's first single, "Another Way to Hide," demonstrates the range of influences that can be found throughout the album. The members of Marshmellow Overcoat are determined to work for their success, with the focus always remaining on writing great songs & giving performances that bring classic rock back to life & into today.
