FROGS

Once upon a time there was a bunch of tiny frogs.... who arranged a running competition.

The goal was to reach the top of a very high tower.

A big crowd had gathered around the tower to see the race and cheer on the contestants....

The race began....

Honestly,no one in crowd really believed that the tiny frogs would reach the top of the tower.

You heard statements such as:

"Oh, WAY too difficult!!"

"They will NEVER make it to the top."

or:

"Not a chance that they will succeed. The tower is too high!"

The tiny frogs began collapsing. One by one....

Except for those, who in a fresh tempo, were climbing higher and higher....

The crowd continued to yell, "It is too difficult!!! No one will make it!"

More tiny frogs got tired and gave up....

But ONE continued higher and higher and higher....

This one wouldn't give up!

At the end everyone else had given up climbing the tower. Except for the one tiny frog who, after a big effort, was the only one who reached the top!

THEN all of the other tiny frogs naturally wanted to know how this one frog managed to do it?

A contestant asked the tiny frog how he had found the strength to succeed and reach the goal?

It turned out....

That the winner was DEAF!!!!

The wisdom of this story is:

Never listen to other people's tendencies to be negative or pessimistic.... because they take your most wonderful dreams and wishes away from you -- the ones you have in your heart!

Always think of the power words have.

Because everything you hear and read will affect your actions!

Therefore:

ALWAYS be....

POSITIVE!

And above all:

Be DEAF when people tell YOU that you cannot fulfill your dreams!

THE Josie O STORY

O-Si-Yo (Hello in Cherokee) Josephine (Josie) Orphelia was my Maternal Grandmother. She was a wonderful woman and a Native American, she was an Ani Wahya [Wolf Clan Member] Ani Yunwiya [Cherokee].

Growing up my ‘Mamaw’ and Mom instilled in me a love of nature (both physical & spiritual) and all things botanical. My grandmother nurtured and inspired wonderful gardens. Gardens where she nurtured beautiful grandchildren as well as her flowers and herbs.

I was taught, in a very natural manner, the importance of all living things and came to know the wonderful healing properties of plants. I never was one for taking ‘medicine’ or at least not the synthetic variety purchased at pharmacies and stores. For most all maladies there is a remedy in nature, you just have to know where to look and honor the medicine.

I grew up and away from some of the things I was taught as a little girl, after college I served our country in the US Marine Corps, after my service I entered into the Corporate World, I achieved success and was CEO of a successful company. Our family was struck with Tragedy when my brother was in a fatal motorcycle accident and taken from us before his time. I began to question if the material success of the corporate world was really what is most important in life. I came to the conclusion that life is very precious and fleeting, we must live it well – be happy – be healthy and give unto others.

To live a meaningful and happy life, we must find our purpose. I have now left the daily stress and pressure of the corporate world behind. My purpose is to help others to achieve wellness, happiness, wisdom, and a ‘good mind’ through respect for the natural world.

The Josie O products will be created using the knowledge and love of nature, instilled in me by my Mother and Grandmother. Our collection of products will be varied and complimentary, they will be for the mind, body and spirit. You will find Skin Care Products; Bath and Body Products, Aromatherapy Products; Home & Garden Products and Clothing. Whatever the product, Josie O products will always consist of the best quality ingredients and components available and be presented in a tasteful manner. They will come to you from the foothills of the "Beloved Mountains" the Great Smoky Mountains, ancient home of the Cherokee.

Wa-Do (Thank you in Cherokee),

Kimberley
