As we celebrate this New Year let's begin with some new reading from the many recent donations to our Park's Library. To encourage you to dive into some new books, here are some thoughts about reading and books, especially some about fiction writing: "The buying of more books than one can read is nothing less than the soul reaching toward infinity."

-- A. Edward Newton "When you ban books before you ban guns, you've admitted you're more afraid of children learning than you are of them dying."

-- Printed on a t-shirt.

"I don't read books; I LIVE them. Always have, always will. Books are my sanity, my escape from depression, my path to happiness."

-- Susan Purnell "One of the great things about fiction is its ability to create empathy for others.

I think it's important, especially now, when the world feels so turbulent and unstable, that we listen to and understand each other, even people whose lives are different. In the end, we all care about the same things and we are stronger together."

-- Kristen Hannah (in a conversation with the author of "The Great Alone.")

"Reading fiction not only develops our imagination and creativity; it gives us the skills to be alone. It gives us the ability to feel empathy for people we've never met, living lives we couldn't possibly experience for ourselves, because the book puts us inside the character's skin."

-- Ann Patchett, author of "Bel Canto" and other novels.

FROM THE RESIDENTS ASSOCIATION:

HOW THE LLME RA CONNECTS WITH YOU There are a number of ways that your Residents’ Association will advertise any event.

The Breeze – It will be delivered to your tube at your residence each month when available.

Should the BREEZE run into problems with printing issues and is late or a non-event, the next step is that, dependent on the time frame of any upcoming event that needs to be advertised, a FLYER may be produced and that will also be delivered to your tube in lieu of the BREEZE. You may also take advantage of the FRIDAY EMAIL BLAST which the office produces weekly.

Another method is that SIGNS will appear at various points in the park, including at the ENTRANCES and other vantage points.

Thank you, Mark Morrison 805.598.1589

CHRISTMAS PARTY 2025 What a great taste of a fun welcome to Christmas celebrations we had on the 6th of December. The clubhouse was transformed into a very happy place, inviting much frivolity.

Volunteer teams had dovetailed the setting up and decorating and it went like clockwork.

By 5:30 the doors opened and guests were rousingly welcomed. The band, the very popular and amazing Critical Mass, was already getting their beat going with their persuasive music and readying us for a night of toe tapping. The room was soon filled with the merriment and raucous fun of a great party.

After the initial social time, our meal was served, a tasty barbecue of juicy tri-tip and chicken, with accompaniments. The band took a break to allow for the chattering over the meal which was followed by dessert.

The band struck up again and the dance floor was filled. No encouragement was necessary. The music was an array of fifties, sixties and some later hits, all of which were familiar to the crowd, most of whom allowed their inner dreams of being dancers escape.

The clubhouse was just buzzing with chatter and laughter.

It was a great night of catching up with neighbors and having outrageous fun. Thank you to our Residents Association and the volunteers, together with Mark Morrison, our President, who created our night. Please support your Residents Association (LLME RA) in their efforts to produce a variety of events.

Quotes

The Lighter Side

There is no such thing as can't or won't.

If you're qualified, all it takes is a burning desire to accomplish, to make a change. Go forward, go backward.

Whatever it takes! You can't blame other people or society in general. It all comes from your mind. When we do the impossible, we realize we are special people.

Jan Ashford

A coward is incapable of exhibiting love. It is the prerogative of the brave.

Mohandas Gandhi

On no account brood over your wrongdoing. Rolling in the muck is not the best way of getting clean.

Aldous Huxley

If you pursue money and affluence to the exclusion of the values in life, you have lost, not won.

Jim Rohn

People who consider themselves victims of circumstances, will always remain victims unless they develop a greater vision for their lives.

Stedman Graham.

Your three best doctors are time, faith and patience.

From a fortune cookie

This is the time when we must firmly choose the course we will follow, or the relentless drift of events will make the decision for us.

Herbert Prochnow

Here is a test to determine whether your mission on earth is finished: If you're alive, it isn't.

Richard Bach

One of the greatest discoveries people make is to find they can do what they were afraid they couldn't do.

Henry Ford

Poor speller "Hello, 911? Please come right away. My wife was just attacked by a wart hog!"

"What is your address?"

"181 Eucalyptus Street."

"Could you spell that?" " ... I'll just drag her over to Oak Street."

Terrible phenomenon In one hospital's Intensive Care Unit, patients in one bed always died at about 11 a.m. on Sunday morning. A worldwide team of experts was assembled to investigate. On Sunday, they waited outside the ward to see what the terrible phenomenon was all about. Some prayed or held holy objects to ward off the evil spirits.

As the clock struck 11 a.m., the part-time Sunday cleaner, entered the ward.

He unplugged the life support system so he could plug in the vacuum cleaner.

Grief and suffering A dietitian was addressing a large audience in Chicago: "The material we put into our stomachs is enough to have killed us. Red meat is awful. Soft drinks erode your stomach lining. Chinese food has MSG. And vegetables can be disastrous.

"But one thing is the most dangerous of all and we all have eaten it or will eat it. What food causes the most grief and suffering for years after eating it?"

A 75-year-old in the front row stood up and said, "Wedding cake."
