The Empowerment Award of Excellence

Bozo Criminals! In a world where evil is glamorized in movies, TV shows, computer games and song.... I'm delighted to find a site that shows it for exactly what it is.... ignorance. Enjoy seeing it naked, without the glamour, without the hot sexy actors or the too cool clothes and background beats. Evil in the raw, come see. I like it so well, I've even added it to our start page.

Jan's Screen Savers (FABULOUS!) Here's one of my personal internet friends and heros. She's a great photographer, a great screen saver creator, and so altruistic she could inspire the most selfish of us to give our own best work, our own best way. Bookmark this one. She's a fountain of creativity and never ceases to amaze, delight and awe. She was deserving of this long ago, I'm just slow.

Daily Celebrations Daily Celebrations is a wonderful collection of original writing, artwork, and photographs. It's a large site, with over 500 special celebrations and over 500 celebrites and historical figures. This site has has been lovingly researched, written, edited, and indexed. It's a great resource to motivate, educate, and inspire. Check it out. I found many old and new heros there.

How Much JOY Can You Stand? How much Joy can you stand is the title of a very healing book and a wonderfully healing site. It's all about how to push past your fears and create your dreams. Originally it was just a site about the book, "How Much Joy Can You Stand?" by Suzanne Falter-Barns. But in the past year, it's become a virtual community ... a place where you can bring your tired, sagging, beaten-up dreams and get a shot of inspiration. I'm so glad I ran across this one! Enjoy!

The WOW Zone W.O.W. Stands for "Wish Only Well." WOW is living in your highest ideals and believing in yourself. It's appreciating and respecting the diversity and magnificence of life, realizing that you are a link in the chain of life. The chain will be as weak or as strong as you. Visit today, say WOW, smile and pass it on!

The Eden Alternative - Midwest site The Eden Alternative is a national reform movement dedicated to transforming nursing homes from sterile institutions where people go to die into vibrant gardens where they can go to live. It's about giving our Elders meaning and purpose in their lives, and control over what they do, rather than having nurses tell them when they have to get up, bathe, eat or go to bed.

With One Voice Visit WOV. After you visit, call your local schools and colleges and tell them about it. This is a unique, totally entertaining and EFFECTIVE suicide prevention play. Take a little action, get it in your schools soon, then be sure to go see it and take a hanky, your friends and your family.

The Hunger Site I'm so solution oriented that you'll never see a site here that just bemoans how bad things are. They're always about what you and I can do. This one is too easy to pass up. Just click on the button to donate food absolutely free. Really. The sponspors of the site provide the food. All you have to do is click the button.

Joy2MeU This is the best site I've found for healing codependence. It's the only site I've ever printed out from start to finish.

With Adam's site and mine together, you're well equipped to roll with whatever life throws you.

The Power of 'Why NOT' Is In You The POWER of Why Not is best experienced when it is used not as a question, but a statement. A statement that comes from within us. Why Not! Achieve greatness. Why Not! Release the power within. Wonderful stories of why not, read some, leave one.

"RealWorld University " RealWorld University, "Where Success is the Only Major!" This is the first Empowerment award to be awarded in 1999 and it is THE place for college students and even their parents to check out. It can sure make life easier.

"How to Treat Your Own PANIC Disorder" If you're tired of having panic attacks - the instructions for putting an end to them are right here. I used to have panic attacks myself, they're no fun. Kind people sympathized with me, but sympathy isn't worth a tinkers damn compared to instructions for healing. If you have panic attacks forgive me for not sympathizing. I've always preferred solutions to sympathy. I hope you feel the same way.

How to Nominate a Site

Sites that win MUST Empower others to experience more healthy happiness and/or to suffer less emotional pain, they must entertain and last but not least; impress me with content, speed, appearance and navigation. No, I take that back. If they empower others to experience more healthy happiness and/or suffer less emotional pain, they don't have to be beautiful. And if you have a beautiful site and you have to stop and think about how it empowers people to suffer less... if it takes any kind of a stretch at all... don't apply. You won't get the award. To submit a site please click on the envelope below stating your name, e-mail address, URL and a clear explanation of how your site reduces unnecessary emotional suffering or increases healthy happiness.
