ValueCreation = personal HAPPINESS

I'll check it out. January 21st is D___'s birthday,

ValueCreation is something that teaches a technique for increasing personal HAPPINESS & well-being. What better gift for a truly HAPPY-birthday that will keep-on giving? The technique is compatible with any spiritual paradigm incl atheist, agnostic, theist, etc.

Is that meeting at 7pm?

Yes, starts 7pm-sharp and ends 8:30pm-sharp.
-------------------------------------------------------

I'm really having to factor in my emotional well-being this year. If I'm totally stressed out trying to drive to make every activity on time, then I can't really help anyone. I nearly killed myself last year trying to save everyone, and I need to pay attention to my health right now.

I totally understand & agree. We cannot help anyone if we fall apart ourselves. If we are to love others as ourselves, we gotta love ourselves 1st, establish our own HAPPINESS 1st, be balanced ourselves 1st.
--------------------------------------------------------

I often think that happy and calm vibrations emanating from me do more for humanity than the frazzled and chaotic vibe I put out when trying to make sure I hit every important event that crosses my path,

Again, I agree. That's why I "Ben-Franklin-T-chart" (prioritize) every important event that crosses my path, so that I get to the event that will benefit me-&-others the most -- that will generate the most sustainable internal HAPPINESS (for me & others) which doesn't depend on reacting to outside conditions. And just like 1 voice in a stadium isn't heard far, but all people shouting in unison is heard for many blocks around, so I realize that I alone emanating happy and calm vibrations do only as much for humanity as 1 voice in a stadium, while if I add my voice to 14-Million others, we can do so much more (& easier) for humanity (to out-compete the gigantic Military-Industrial-Complexes, organized-crime, & other challenges facing community-Earth).
--------------------------------------------------------

I'm getting healthier every day, but I still feel a little fragile,

I've been functioning @ levels of 30% above contemporaries; have done 9 Marathons & 9 Halfathons (2 so far this winter & 2 more to go, next one on Sun20Jan 7-9:30am Coachman Pk Clrwtr), and all that after an extremely sickly childhood & youth when I was told that I would never live to see adulthood. 1 contributing factor that I highly recommend is The-Ultimate-Meal which has comprised my breakfast since 1998 (& Samantha's since 2010) = http://theultimatelife.net/CatalogMeal.htm
When I met Samantha, she couldn't run around the block. At present she has successfully completed a 5K, 10K, & 3 Halfathons.
--------------------------------------------------------

I promise to do my best to make it. It does sound like necessary and important work in the world.

Yes, yes, I do hope you do make it, and with Z___, S____, D___, & M____-&-her-roommate, but I don't want you to stress-out over it. If you just cannot make it, you can practice in Washington, cause it's global with about 14-Million members in 192 countries:
