Dream Weavers
As we head towards the end of a year, and the beginning of a new one, this is the time when the Dreamweavers come out of hibernation and plot their course for new directions. Each year around December, the Dreamweavers evaluate the present and past year ...
[Dream Weavers continued...]God Versus Ego (the human conflict)
Across the human spectrum, we all live. At one end is God....at the other, is the Ego. The fanatics who are at the extreme level of the God corner are willing to do anything...lie, cheat, steal, maim and kill, in what they consider to be "In the name of ...
[God Versus Ego (the human conflict) continued...]Evolving Stories
Beware of rumors, opinions and stories...... I would like to share with you an incident that happened to me recently. I was visiting my local coffee shop, when Bob, the storeowner, was being told a local newsflash that had just happened. What was ...
[Evolving Stories continued...]The Optimistic Pessimist
This past year has been a prime example for the history books...each time we feel that we are getting our feet on solid ground, and things are stabilizing, something or someone seems to pull the rug out from underneath us, which sends us back to the ...
[The Optimistic Pessimist continued...]Time Travelers
As much as there are parts of the past we choose to forget, some of it we still cherish. The collection of memories that we carry with us to this day make up who we are. Things may not go always according to plan, but hopefully over time we live and ...
[Time Travelers continued...]Live Long & Prosper
Since 9/11, it's been real hard to take a real pulse on what's been happening. Enron, Anthrax, the Middle East Conflict, and Wall Street's Woes, have left many of us baffled and confused. Most of the e-mails I receive regarding these times are broken ...
[Live Long & Prosper continued...]Trends
Isn't it interesting....that certain aspects of life seem to follow a pattern. For example, you head off during the day and one thing seems to go wrong after another, or, at each intersection, you make every green light. Strange, isn't it? Well, for the ...
[Trends continued...]4 Hours a Day Makes
Yes, indeed....unless somebody has discovered a miraculous way to extend the amount of hours that make up a day, either you control the cycle, or it controls you. We all fall victim, in one way or another, to the hands on the clock. We ask ourselves, ...
[4 Hours a Day Makes continued...]Normal
Normal is the presence and level of life that we deem acceptable. Normal has changed over time....and since 9/11, we are all finding new ways to come to terms with the definition of "normal." The world believed that an array of nuclear, biological and ...
[Normal continued...]Dark Humor
This past week in the United States, many terrorist warnings were issued for the country and specifically, for the New York area. The warnings ranged from nuclear reactors to airplanes, trains, and boats, until it trickled down to scuba divers! To put it ...
[Dark Humor continued...]Chameleons
We meet or are introduced to people, and after a few encounters we understand who they are, and what they're all about. Unfortunately, there are those who have a strange habit of changing who they are at will, leaving us baffled and confused. For lack of ...
[Chameleons continued...]The Waiting Game
9/11, Afghanistan, the Enron Scandal, Wall Street's Bear Market, the Conflict in the Middle East, the Catholic Church Scandal, etc.......over the past eight months this is what has been surrounding us, either at home, at work, or everywhere else ...
[The Waiting Game continued...]God's Tears
It used to be that we believed that the people with the greatest weapons could secure peace in the world. The country with the largest and most powerful military hardware would have all the answers and deliver such a potentially powerful blow that all in ...
[God's Tears continued...]Dinner for Two
Allright. The war in the Middle East is escalating daily.....some members of our government, when asked what will come next, a blank stare comes over their faces and they are left practically speechless. Two groups of people, who are supposed to live in ...
[Dinner for Two continued...]The Crossroads
The world is at a Crossroads...each one of us has been affected, in our own way, in the past 6 months. While we were growing up, we were led to believe that the countries with the most powerful weapons had nothing to worry about. Surely no one would ...
[The Crossroads continued...]Yoga
With so much going on, it's not surprising that many of us feel exhausted or, sometimes, just plain burnt out. In a given 24 hour period it can almost feel that there are forces at work to rob us of our free time, energy, and relaxation. Over the years, ...
[Yoga continued...]The Code
Each week I receive e-mails that cross the boundaries of demographics, countries, and religions. All with their take and thoughts on what is going on in their lives and in their countries. It's quite interesting for me to pull back a little, and to just ...
[The Code continued...]The Fortress of Temptation
Whenever we set off on our goals and dreams, once we decide what it is we wish to accomplish, instantaneously, right before our eyes, we see a minefield with a sign that says, "Don't even think about it." For each positive step forward, surrounding that ...
[The Fortress of Temptation continued...]Journey to the Center
Through life, we cross over many different types of terrain. As far as we may journey, it is when we return home that we take account of what we have learned in our travels. Home is our center, where peace, purpose, spirituality and knowledge resides. ...
[Journey to the Center continued...]The Best is Yet to Come
This time of the year, many people tend to get a little gloomy after all the festivities of the holidays. Some of us look at January as the beginning of another ladder that has to be climbed. For me, I look at each year as a new beginning, untouched, ...
[The Best is Yet to Come continued...]Virus
It's on everyone's mind.....it's everywhere you go. Unless you've been living in a bunker for the past three months, there has been no way of getting away from it. Even over the holidays, somebody brought it up. What are we talking about? Call it what ...
