xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'&gt; &lt;p&gt;One of the prima people of State Of Israel came to Jesus Of Nazareth in the night.  Jesus Of Nazareth told him that unless a individual is born again he would not see the land of God.  This scholarly person did not that knowing and doing the volition of Supreme Being required a rebirth.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;He was upset and asked how that tin be.  How can a individual travel back to his mother's uterus again was his question.  Jesus Of Nazareth said you are a scholarly person in State Of Israel yet you cannot understand this concept.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;There are many who still make not understand this concept.  We dwell in a 3rd dimension human race and everything we normally understand is through our senses.  In every man, there bes another unseeable dimension called the spirit.  Only metempsychosis can get the procedure of knowing and doing the volition of God.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;We all experience that every twenty-four hours yet deny it.  There is something called self-talk.  All of us speak to ourselves more than than we speak to others.  WE do decision, analyze, and believe through our interior person.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Some phone phone phone call it the mind, some call it the soul, and some call it the spirit.  Some may even name it three parts body, soul, and spirit.  I will simplify it by saying that there is an interior and outer person.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The interior individual is where our self-talk travels on.  It is unseeable and beyond our sense life.  This dimensional rhenium birth is what Jesus Of Nazareth s talking about.  Knowing and doing the volition of Supreme Being is purely spiritual.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;That credence of our iniquitous nature and separation from Supreme Being will alone begin eh procedure of rebirth.  Metempsychosis is to admit that we are away constitute Supreme Being the beginning of our being and demand to be re-done.  Recreation, regeneration and metempsychosis will intend the same, but different ways to name it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;God necessitates that we change our ways.  Only a metempsychosis or a born again experience with Supreme Being can change our manner of thinking, behaving and life before God.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;We can dwell any manner you desire before humans.  However, when we confront Supreme Being we necessitate to be born again.  This new birth will give us new insights, ideas, thoughts, and human relationship with God.  Knowing and doing the volition of Supreme Being is a human relationship based on the new birth.  New birth alone can vouch our citizenship into the land of God.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/458060558823454718-2598861426420916464?l=drowsypoet.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://drowsypoet.blogspot.com/feeds/2598861426420916464/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=458060558823454718&amp;postID=2598861426420916464' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/458060558823454718/posts/default/2598861426420916464'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/458060558823454718/posts/default/2598861426420916464'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://drowsypoet.blogspot.com/2009/10/knowing-and-doing-will-of-god-through.html' title='Knowing and Doing the Will of God Through New Birth'/><author><name>Dawson</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06214769896560718181</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-458060558823454718.post-1758315090309721977</id><published>2009-09-24T11:50:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2009-09-24T11:50:32.614-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='birds'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='biking'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='around'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='riding'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='bike'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='bird watching'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='watching'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='spirituality'/><title type='text'>Riding My Bike Around the City</title><content type='html'>&lt;div xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'&gt; &lt;p&gt;Riding my motorcycle around the metropolis was a fantastic experience.  Flowers smelling sweet.  Children playing outside, without much concerns in the world.  Wind continued to do noise in the dorsum of my ears.  A lulling sense experience of pure satisfaction.  The wind gathered impulse and went through me as energy would.  It was unagitated as I sat there, watching, observing, and studying how well the adolescents could play a game of soccer/football inch a squad environment.  It was a dainty that my eyes would miss, as I continued riding my motorcycle around the city.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;There was no sun, which was a job at first because it was getting chilly.  However, as I continued riding my motorcycle around the city, the beauty that I saw, surpassed the necessity for warmth.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I got scared for a moment; a auto rolled by me and shouted, "Hey!" I did not respond, as I was not certain what they wanted.  I was definitely curious, so I pedaled as fast as I could after the car.  I continued pedaling, but gave up after a few minute because it seemed like the driver, pressed on the gas bicycle with force.  The auto turned the corner and all there was left was beautiful trees, flowers and life military unit of energy.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;As I rode my motorcycle around the city, I was getting tired and apprehensive to sit down on the bench and ticker the birds sing me a song.  Iodine rode my motorcycle to a bench I saw a few minute away from me. I rode to it and got off.  My leg's felt a release of tension.  There was no 1 around birds, but trees, bushes, the wind, and me blowing into my face.  It felt like I was at the beach; tanning and restful with my beautiful lady.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The motorcycle ride, felt like pure unadulterated freedom of my soul.  Nothing on the head of a motorcycle rider; but the road.  It was not to hot, it was not too windy; birds chirped, human race moved in a rotation of routineness.  Same old image perfect human race of pure release of calmness.  Who could inquire for anything more than, that?  I sure could not; I did not inquire for anything more than, a simple motorcycle drive around my city.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/458060558823454718-1758315090309721977?l=drowsypoet.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://drowsypoet.blogspot.com/feeds/1758315090309721977/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=458060558823454718&amp;postID=1758315090309721977' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/458060558823454718/posts/default/1758315090309721977'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/458060558823454718/posts/default/1758315090309721977'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://drowsypoet.blogspot.com/2009/09/riding-my-bike-around-city.html' title='Riding My Bike Around the City'/><author><name>Dawson</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06214769896560718181</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-458060558823454718.post-1403508138446911373</id><published>2009-04-13T00:59:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2009-04-13T00:59:57.069-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='self realization'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='spiritual growth'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='spirituality'/><title type='text'>Spirituality For Sale - How to Achieve True Spiritual Growth</title><content type='html'>&lt;div xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'&gt; &lt;p&gt;On one of my route trips I stopped in Sedona, Grand Canyon State for a few years to undergo the natural beauty of the reddish stones by going on some local hikes.  Not only is Sedona an American hot spot for all things spiritual, new age, and metaphysical, it's now a immense tourer attractive force for its breathless views and out-of-door activities; putative life-enhancing energy vortices; Negro Negro spiritual gurus, new age shops, and festivals; humanistic discipline and particular events; and Native American historical sites.  This little town with a population of approximately 11,000 sees more than than 3 million visitants per year.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;There are Negro spiritual retreats, spas, whirl landrover tours, and plentifulness of shopping available in and around Sedona.  In the three new age stores I visited a individual can go easily flooded by the fecund mixture and figure of crystals and gemstones, some inset in jewellery of all kinds.  There were also metaphysical and personal development books, music, incense, candles, wind chimes, angels, tarot cards, and statues of The Buddha and Kuan Yin for sale.  You can acquire a psychic, astrological, or tarot reading, or a exposure of your aura and chakras.  The obvious contrived pushing toward consumerism by some of the local concern proprietors with these types of merchandises was disheartening.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;With so much spiritualty for sale, it's apparent many people are hungry for deeper significance and ground in a sometimes unpredictable human race with random disturbance and chaos.  Turning to a new sort of spiritualty that promises ascension, the planetary support of lightworkers, and the possibility of mystical and higher counsel gives hope and inspiration to one's unsure path.  This new spiritualty enticements people by offering the self-assurance of enlightenment in the word form of transformative energies and higher vibes that come up from crystals, mental images of gurus and gods, angel figurines, and powerful geographical sites.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Mysticism in these word forms can be as tools to additional people along their path; for instance, using incense or meditating on an angelic icon assists with one's focusing on their connexion with spirit.  In many cases the powerfulness of these tools may be attributed to the placebo effect, where the combination of belief and use of a matter or device bring forths certain encephalon responses.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;As portion of one's corporate way to self-realization, though, there cannot be the degree of growing accomplished without the 1 factor that truly and ultimately defines and propels our Negro spiritual growth: &lt;i&gt;our interactions with others&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;.  Each experience we have got got with another life beingness adds certain qualities to our gestalt (or a battalion of interweaved forms that do up our whole being), which finds the development of our whole self.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;All positive interactions have the common component of &lt;b&gt;respect&lt;/b&gt;: regard toward each other, living creatures, works life, and our natural resources that carry through our human demands and desires.  Respect is allowing world and other species to follow their ain unique, individual way to top fulfilment or intent without use of will, domination, force, hostility, or harm.  We instinctively understand and admit the gift every person, species, and cherished resource adds to our existence.  The pattern of respect, then, can function as one of our top chances for growth.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Many Negro Negro spiritual and spiritual tools and particular geographical locations such as as Sedona can help us to heighten our spiritual connexion to the Godhead kernel that bes in all of creation, but eventually we detect the most of import way to meaningful existence, self-realization, and enlightenment dwells of learning to show the peak word form of Godhead love, which is respect.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/458060558823454718-1403508138446911373?l=drowsypoet.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://drowsypoet.blogspot.com/feeds/1403508138446911373/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=458060558823454718&amp;postID=1403508138446911373' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/458060558823454718/posts/default/1403508138446911373'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/458060558823454718/posts/default/1403508138446911373'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://drowsypoet.blogspot.com/2009/04/spirituality-for-sale-how-to-achieve.html' title='Spirituality For Sale - How to Achieve True Spiritual Growth'/><author><name>Dawson</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06214769896560718181</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-458060558823454718.post-1135568992166261675</id><published>2009-03-27T22:18:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2009-03-27T22:18:23.574-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='enjoy'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Websites'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='encourage'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='create'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='design'/><title type='text'>Sharing the Virtual Life</title><content type='html'>&lt;div xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'&gt; &lt;p&gt;For a long clip I have got wanted my ain website.  Over my seventy-six old age I have got written many words on many pages.  Some professionally, some in missive word form and many to make with my work within the field of personal and Negro spiritual development.  They all sat there, on my computing machine waiting patiently to be published in one manner or another.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Of course, writing a book was the obvious solution.  However, I am an Ram person, well endowed with the restlessness that often travels with this mark of the zodiac.  Publication through normal channels takes a immense amount of clip and energy.  So, now of an age when not too certain of how much clip I have got left, I took the leap and hoped that a website would supply an blink of an eye solution.  In other words - my land site is my book.  It includes some of my writings, as well as ideas and feelings about this life that we all live.  However things have got got not turned out quite as expected - but much more than interesting for me, and for my readers as I am discovering.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;We have been 'out there' in internet for about four calendar months now.  I have got establish that this land site takes me, rather than other manner round.  Luckily Iodine am fairly flexible and just follow what come ups into my life, correspondence, the people met and the contacts made.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;There is a subdivision called Conversations - this is the engine (a blog actually) that tallies the site.  It open ups doors to conversations as well as to the most fantastic and beautiful pieces of authorship from all ages, backgrounds and interests.  We have got news points and comments, poetry, narratives and the chance of interaction.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The original thought was for a land site for the over 50s that would cover, in depth, the joyousnesses and unhappiness of growing older.  We wanted to go forth all the practical material to the 40 or so other land sites in the same niche market.  Our land site would cover the emotional questions, the exhilaration of new ways of apprehension and the depth and profusion to be uncovered in these future old age of life.  Well, conjecture what - we have letters from much little people also, from all walkings of life who bask what looks there in the free newsletters and also the ever-changing contented of the conversations.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;But, readers beware!  If you are thinking of doing something similar, and have got an thought of how much clip it will take - multiply that clip by at least three!  Iodine certainly pass much more than than clip sitting at the computing machine than is healthy for me. I was blessed in having a boy who designed the land site and a Webmaster who maintains me more or less sane.  These are both immature work force with large Black Maria to whom I owe a lot.

But, as you got aged and moved out, it wasn't a lawsuit of hanging out with the incorrect crowd, it was a lawsuit of hanging out with any crowd at all.  As a kid we have got options and picks of different people to hang around.  We are surrounded by 100s of kids, all at our fingertips.  As children we can pick and take what societal circles we wish to be a portion of.  Of course, this is dependent on the wisdom of how to command ourselves and others to accept us.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Let's fast forward 10 old age to the present.  You're an adult.  You may have got contact with as small as no people to up to 100s of other grownups on a day-to-day basis.  However, that forced socialisation no longer bes as it did as a child.  Surprisingly money grownups take very alone existences, compared to their childhood days.  They may have got a 9 to 5 or a atrocious nighttime displacement or even worse a 13 hr shift.

Think for one second.  When people are relaying narratives of some icon they throw up as being "down to earth", usually it's accompanied by some illustration of them saying something filthy or totally off-color.  "He was so down to earth, he smoked marihuana with me in the bath room." Hardly a ballot for his noble citizenry.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;We as grownups then fall into the trap of "Be my friend." Our subconscious head mind takes over when we near person that we have got sized up to be equal to our societal standing and looks nonthreatening.  We then latch on to these less position people and befriend them.  The other individual reciprocates because you might be of a higher position than they are and thus are immediately accepted by them.  Months later, or even years, you detect this less position individual to be completely unhealthy to be around.  But, what can you do?  There is no possible manner you could "unfriend" them.  For men, that's unheard of and for women, the more than societal butterflies, you necessitate as many friends as you can get.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The job is that you are allowing your subconscious mind to order what you should be consciously doing.

It is then and often in despair we look beyond our materialist selves and bend to supplication for much needful aid and comfort.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;It may also be of comfortableness to you to larn that president Jonathan Jonathan Edwards wrote, manner back in 1830, "We shall have got our modern times of catastrophe wherein we shall stand up in demand of God's commiseration and help."&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/458060558823454718-4791933070269869880?l=drowsypoet.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://drowsypoet.blogspot.com/feeds/4791933070269869880/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=458060558823454718&amp;postID=4791933070269869880' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/458060558823454718/posts/default/4791933070269869880'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/458060558823454718/posts/default/4791933070269869880'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://drowsypoet.blogspot.com/2009/03/tap-into-prayer-underused-source-of.html' title='Tap Into Prayer - An Underused Source of Help'/><author><name>Dawson</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06214769896560718181</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-458060558823454718.post-606894109940618199</id><published>2009-01-30T10:58:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2009-01-30T10:58:48.565-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='churchhelps'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='theology'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='philosophy'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='religion'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='admonition'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='outreach'/><title type='text'>Open Season</title><content type='html'>&lt;div xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'&gt; &lt;p&gt;If I'd inquire an outdoorsman "Is it hunting season?" "Of course of study not, the season is closed!" he'd reply.  The term Open Season mentions to the time period during which it is legal to Hunt or catch game.  After examining the definitions of the word Holman Hunt we clearly see the grounds that there are seasons for the sport.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Hunt 2.  To seek through (an area) for prey: hunted the ridges.  4.  To prosecute intensively so as to capture or kill: hunted down the escaped convict.  6.  To drive out forcibly, especially by harassing; pursuit away: hunted the newcomers out of town.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Fishing, other the other hand, have no season.  That is, at least not where I am from.  No substance the hr of the twenty-four hours or the clip of year, you can pack up your gear wheel and travel out to 'wet a line.'  To state you the truth, I'm not much of a hunter, but, I make bask fishing!  I can't state that I'm good at it or that I cognize a batch about it, but I make love to fish.  Jesus Of Nazareth Of Nazareth called fishermen, Simon Peter and his brother, Andrew, saying "Follow Me, and I will do you fishermen of men." (Matthew 4:19) Now, why didn't Jesus happen any huntsmen to name into His discipleship?  Surely there must have got got been a few out-of-doors partisans that He could have found, right?  Why make you believe Jesus Of Nazareth establish only fishermen and no hunters?  I believe the reply may lie in the fact that athletics hunting, as we commonly cognize it to be today, did not always exist.  Since the beginning of history it have been a well known fact that people who hunted did so for survival, not for sport.  The people who lived during the clip of Jesus probably maintained a diet primarily consisting of grain and the few fruit and veggies that were available.  A family's beginning of meat most likely came from the farm animal that was prevailing during this epoch and, the fish that could be caught from the neighbour waters.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Jesus always taught about the Kingdom of Supreme Being in parables.  He used common illustrations that compared the occult to the natural which could be easily understood by the listeners.  We may larn much from the words Jesus Of Nazareth spoke, but I believe that there is just as much to larn from His actions.  Let's human face it; children have got a greater inclination to make what they see and not always what they're told.  Jesus Of Nazareth called fishermen to go 'fishers of men.'  Looking beneath the surface I believe there is a disclosure for Christ's following today; work force are to be fished, not hunted.  Be sober, be vigilant; because your antagonist the devil, as a boom lion, walks about, seeking (or hunting) whom he may devour.  (1 Simon Peter 5:8) Therefore, if we there is much that tin be learned by observing the actions of Christ, then our actions will also be a life illustration to others.  Always remember: when fishing for work force we must consistently do our lives all-lure-ing!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Galatians 5:16-24 Iodine state then: Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not carry through the lecherousness of the flesh.  17 For the flesh lecherousnesses against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one another, so that you make not make the things that you wish.  18 But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law.  19 Now the plant of the flesh are evident, which are: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, 20 idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, effusions of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies, 21 envy, murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of which I state you beforehand, just as I also told you in clip past, that those who pattern such as things will not come into the land of God.  22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, self-control.  Against such as there is no law.  (NKJV)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;It's an Open Season!&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/458060558823454718-606894109940618199?l=drowsypoet.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://drowsypoet.blogspot.com/feeds/606894109940618199/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=458060558823454718&amp;postID=606894109940618199' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/458060558823454718/posts/default/606894109940618199'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/458060558823454718/posts/default/606894109940618199'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://drowsypoet.blogspot.com/2009/01/open-season.html' title='Open Season'/><author><name>Dawson</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06214769896560718181</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-458060558823454718.post-8480314721725266378</id><published>2009-01-22T03:45:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2009-01-22T03:45:20.094-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='peace'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='god life'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='communicating with god'/><title type='text'>Communicating With God - The Path to Peace</title><content type='html'>&lt;div xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'&gt; &lt;p&gt;Communicating with Supreme Being is the lone manner to peace with God.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;You and I are animals that somehow necessitate to cognize that Supreme Being is happy with us.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Humans are just wired that way it seems.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Historically people have got got got gone to great lengths and some pretty eccentric extremes to do peace with God.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Animal gives have been common and then there are the groupings that have performed human sacrifices.  (shudder)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The Book even talks of people sacrificing their ain children to their God.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;So here we are in the 21st Century and we still have got the same job - how make we happen peace with God?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;We battle with this, living our lives in all kinds of different ways, trying this or that, one Christian church or another or 400 different ones.  We donate to charities, give at the office, give at church, give clip to other programmes and still often experience there's more to be done.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Are we working for a Supreme Being that just won't be satisfied?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Or are we just not really communicating with God?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;How make we cognize - and I intend cognize without a shadow of a uncertainty - what Supreme Being necessitates from us?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I intend if we cognize what Supreme Being desires from us and we supply it then we'll have got peace with God, right?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;That's the premise it seems.  That's what I was taught growing up.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If you grew up in a Christian place you probably were taught the same thing - or at least somehow got that thought into your head.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The thing is we addition some penetration to what we believe Supreme Being desires and then we travel about trying to supply that.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Usually the satisfaction we derive from our attempt is not complete - we still have got this feeling that we've missed the boat somehow.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This is where we must really analyze our human relationship with Supreme Being and find if we're really communicating with Supreme Being or just assuming we cognize the mark because of something we've been taught all our lives.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This is a very personal examination.  It affects really getting ahold of our basic beliefs about God.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sometimes it's scary because it may take to questioning.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I like to remind people of the words of Jesus Of Nazareth "Fear not small flock for it is the Father's good pleasance to give you the kingdom".&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The fearfulness you have got around Supreme Being isn't Supreme Being given.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The 1 whom Christians claim religion in bucked up "Fear not".&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;So spell ahead and look.  Analyze your beliefs about God.  Discover their source.  Discover if they really back up communicating with God.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If not, allow them go.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/458060558823454718-8480314721725266378?l=drowsypoet.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://drowsypoet.blogspot.com/feeds/8480314721725266378/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=458060558823454718&amp;postID=8480314721725266378' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/458060558823454718/posts/default/8480314721725266378'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/458060558823454718/posts/default/8480314721725266378'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://drowsypoet.blogspot.com/2009/01/communicating-with-god-path-to-peace.html' title='Communicating With God - The Path to Peace'/><author><name>Dawson</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06214769896560718181</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-458060558823454718.post-3325473149159496630</id><published>2009-01-20T07:57:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2009-01-20T07:57:37.023-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='law'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='karma'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='savior'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='world'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='eternal'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='reborn'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='origin'/><title type='text'>Coming From the Origin and Returning to the Origin is the Law of the World</title><content type='html'>&lt;div xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'&gt; &lt;p&gt;Human completion is going to the origin.

This could be caused by a strong solar wind coming from a sun topographic point and producing dawns in the skies; or just the influence of the full moon.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Or it could be a churned-up in grouping consciousness which we are feeling because of a warfare or natural catastrophe in the news, that tons of people are reacting to.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;We are a portion of the whole Universe, whether we admit it or not; what haps outside of us, we can also experience within us: &lt;i&gt;as above, so below&lt;/i&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;We can experience churned-up in our emotions and feelings; strong ideas which bear no relation to our current fortune may come up up and convey shadows into our consciousness.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;So what make we make when we experience this disruptive energy coming around us?  Well, what I take to make is to go witting of it, without reacting to it.  This is a sort of witnessing of the energy passing play through me.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;When I travel conscious, I allow my consciousness go to the physical organic structure and expression within for feelings or sense experiences in the physiology; these may be of hurting or tension.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I then take to consciously take a breath into that portion of my body; I also ask for all the musculuses to relax, and release any latent hostility or pain.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I consciously land my energy field and visualise stale energy going down into the Earth, to be replaced by fresh, revitalizing energy, full of Love, Joy and Happiness; I experience that positive energy entering the body.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;We can then take to respond to the state of affairs in a different way.  I am very aware of the law of karma - what we take to create, come ups back to us.  Therefore, I take to look for ways to make myself more than whole and complete.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The best manner I have got establish to do this is with a gentle smile.  A smiling have a manner of sending out moving ridges of love and have a sort of magnetic energy to it, which assists to convey about healing and wholeness.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I like to praise my organic structure for staying healthy and free from stress.  One can do this on any degree of the physiology; it is a word form of self-talk, with which we can convey a feeling of love and grasp into each cell of our body.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Remember that the cells of the organic structure are just like people in a society: we are all affiliated and are pulling towards a common end to make harmoniousness and peace, both within the organic structure and in the society where we live.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;When watching human race communication, it is now so incorporate that even things happening on the other side of the human race have got an influence on us and our organic structure - &lt;i&gt;We Are All One&lt;/i&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Journalists are waking up to the fact that what a individual sets his or her attending on, grows; and positive articles are increasingly appearing like points of visible visible light amongst the negative news items.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Each twenty-four hours we can look through the newspaper headlines for these points of light; they will move as a tonic water for us, and we can go through on their uplifting, joyous energy to all those with whom we come up into contact.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This procedure assists convey about healing in our ain body; it assists us recognize that &lt;i&gt;We Are All One&lt;/i&gt;, and stimulates us to make Acts of kindness to each other all the time.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/458060558823454718-1238451617687443982?l=drowsypoet.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://drowsypoet.blogspot.com/feeds/1238451617687443982/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=458060558823454718&amp;postID=1238451617687443982' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/458060558823454718/posts/default/1238451617687443982'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/458060558823454718/posts/default/1238451617687443982'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://drowsypoet.blogspot.com/2009/01/what-to-do-when-there-is-turbulence-in.html' title='What to Do When There is Turbulence in the Energies'/><author><name>Dawson</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06214769896560718181</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-458060558823454718.post-2654431333112859437</id><published>2009-01-08T04:40:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2009-01-08T04:40:04.288-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Present moment awareness'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Let Go and Let God'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Present Moment'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Let Go'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Let God'/><title type='text'>Let Go and Let God?</title><content type='html'>&lt;div xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'&gt; &lt;p&gt;Let Go and Let Supreme Being is a commonly used nomenclature in the modern-day human race and by the expression of it looks as if it is belonging to a peculiar religion or faith.

The witting part, represented by the left encephalon is responsible for thinking, logic, logical thinking etc, and the unconscious or higher self, represented by the right brain, which is responsible for feelings, emotions, intuition, and Negro spiritual values etc.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Majority of world have got lost touching with their higher selves and unrecorded most of the clip in their witting minds.  This is owed to the complexness of current life on earth.  We are too busy to have got even a few proceedings a twenty-four hours to be with ourselves, or to acquire to cognize the interior ego better.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If we all could close down our witting heads and listen to our higher selves, life on Earth would be a in a much better place than it is today.  But to listen to the higher ego we should be in the present moment.  Our witting heads are mostly operating in the past or future and never in the present.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;To Let Go and Let Supreme Being or your higher ego manage it we should larn to be in the minute at all times.  It is easy said than done.  All jobs are created when we dwell in the past or future and not the present.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Since we have got been conditioned to dwell in the past or future for generations, it is not easy to drill present minute awareness.  But it is neither impossible.  The best manner to make it is through the pattern of meditation.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The most effectual manner to meditate is to utilize brain wave entrainment engineering as it makes all the difficult work and you only have got to listen to it for about 30 proceedings a day.  That is all that demands to be done by you.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;It gives much more than benefits than speculation in the shortest possible clip period.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;With Brainwave Entrainment Technology, within the shortest possible clip you will be life in the present minute altogether and it would experience so natural to you.  All your jobs will be taken attention of by your higher ego and you would be more than unfastened to intuition and never before.  Now you have got the ability to Let Go and Let God.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/458060558823454718-2654431333112859437?l=drowsypoet.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://drowsypoet.blogspot.com/feeds/2654431333112859437/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=458060558823454718&amp;postID=2654431333112859437' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/458060558823454718/posts/default/2654431333112859437'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/458060558823454718/posts/default/2654431333112859437'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://drowsypoet.blogspot.com/2009/01/let-go-and-let-god.html' title='Let Go and Let God?'/><author><name>Dawson</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06214769896560718181</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-458060558823454718.post-5624015822125150044</id><published>2009-01-05T04:47:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2009-01-05T04:47:25.245-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Emotions'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Pain'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='growth'/><title type='text'>Critical Things You Should Know About Spiritual and Emotional Pain</title><content type='html'>&lt;div xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'&gt; &lt;p&gt;Are you concealment some type of hurting in our life?

But what haps next?  What make people make with that listing of things they desire to change or modify?  Bash they go on to transport that listing around in their heads, weighing them down, keeping them stuck in a rut where nil is happening or changing?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;A self-assessment of our life and who we are is certainly necessary for personal growing and development, but the procedure doesn't halt there.  Once we have got got got got identified the countries in our life that demand improvement, we have to go not only very deliberate about seeking change, but we must have a program on how we will obtain that alteration or accomplish that goal.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I have created the Godhead Principles of Personal Growth.  These elements reflect what I believe to be the core of achieving success in your life and will assist you go unstuck in your life.  The six rules of personal growing are derived from the word 'Divine,' which I have got created into an acronym.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Principle #1: Determination - One of the surest ways to go unstuck in your life is to be determined to accomplish the things you desire.  If you're hungry for success, hungry for change, that finding will assist combustible your motive to see the consequences you desire.  If you desire something bad enough, you will halt at nil to accomplish that goal.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Principle #2: Inspiration - Why make you desire what you want?  What is inspiring you to seek the growing you desire?  If you are seeking something because person have told you to make so, then you might desire to re-evaluate that to find if that is truly what you want.  If it is not what you want, you necessitate to make up one's mind where your ain inspiration come ups from and move in that way for your existent inspiration.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Principle #3: Vision - You must have got vision.  If you have got no vision, how will you cognize what you are trying to carry through in your life?  Vision gives you a image or design of what you are striving for, your intended destination.  Vision maintains you focused and on undertaking by providing you some sense of direction.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Principle #4: Enterprise - As much as we would wish things to just go on or autumn from the sky, the world is that life doesn't work that way.  No amount of determination, inspiration or vision is going to bring forth any consequences in your life UNLESS you take some enterprise in your life.  If that agency request for help, doing some research or whatever it is that you necessitate to make in order to travel forward, you have got to take action.  Even if it is only one little measure or action, it's a start.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Principle #5: Network - Every successful individual did not obtain success on their own.  They networked and affiliated with other successful people and people who could help them in their endeavors.  If you don't state people what you are doing or what you are trying to carry through in your life, you might not detect the human resources available to you.  Network!  Make strategical partnerships.  Make a support system for yourself.  Don't be afraid to inquire for assistance.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Principle #6: Edify - This rule is by far one of the most of import rules of personal growth.  You must larn how to edify yourself by reaffirming your value and importance, by ridding yourself of your negative and limiting beliefs.  While it is certainly great to have got others edify you, there may be a clip when that is not happening.  When that occurs, rather than give up or lose sight, you must be able to beef up and affirm yourself.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Personal growing is a uninterrupted journeying in life, filled with eternal self-discoveries and experiences.  Never waver or be afraid to change what is not working in your life.  If you set up core rules in your life that volition maintain you on the right path of your life, you will not let yourself to go stuck!&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/458060558823454718-8360860990530477385?l=drowsypoet.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://drowsypoet.blogspot.com/feeds/8360860990530477385/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=458060558823454718&amp;postID=8360860990530477385' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/458060558823454718/posts/default/8360860990530477385'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/458060558823454718/posts/default/8360860990530477385'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://drowsypoet.blogspot.com/2008/12/6-principles-of-personal-growth-how-to.html' title='6 Principles of Personal Growth - How to Become Unstuck in Your Life'/><author><name>Dawson</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06214769896560718181</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-458060558823454718.post-6845477462371108148</id><published>2008-12-29T02:24:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2008-12-29T02:24:56.119-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Sports and business'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='motivational expertise to businesses'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='motivation'/><title type='text'>Sports and Business Have Much in Common</title><content type='html'>&lt;div xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'&gt; &lt;p&gt;Each is about teamwork, graft, subject and success.  And each tin larn from each other by sharing cognition of how best to acquire to the top.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In sports, motive is important.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In business, motive is important.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I have got often seen ex-sports personalities give after dinner motivational speeches.  Only recently, I had the privilege of seeing Sir Steve Redgrave give a motivational address on his calling and how he handled the successes and knock-backs.  How he put ends and objectives, how he worked in a team.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Of course, Sir Steve Redgrave is not the lone sporting hero to go through on his trade name of &lt;b&gt;motivational expertness to businesses.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Many support their pensions by offering their advice to gross sales squads and direction groups.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Of the respective Iodine have got seen, the 1 which lodges out, is by Olympic gold decoration swimmer Hadrian Moorhouse.  Hadrian Moorhouse knew from an early age what he wanted from life.  From the minute he saw Saint David Wilkie take gold for United Kingdom in the 1976 Olympic Games of Montreal, he wanted one too.  It was a wages for many old age of forfeit and pain.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;As a 16-year-old Moorhouse had just missed out on choice for Capital Of The Russian Federation in 1980 and in 1984 he went to Los Angeles as Commonwealth and European title-holder and suffered his greatest letdown when he came in fourth.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Devastated&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"I was absolutely devastated," he said.  "Ever since Iodine was a child all I wanted to win was an Olympic medal.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"Swimming was my life.  Iodine was a spot of a `Billy No-mates' because all I spent all my clip in the pool.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"It took me four or five calendar months to acquire over the injury of missing out but the failure made me tougher."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Moorhouse explained how he put about winning his decoration in the Capital Of South Korea Olympic Games of 1988.  After failing at the former games in Los Angeles, he was determined to win the adjacent clip around.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;To make so, Hadrian realised he would necessitate to interrupt the human race record, which was then 2 proceedings faster then his personal best.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;It seemed an impossible task: who could better by 2 minutes.  But Hadrian worked out that to rush up by that amount, he needed to cut down his clip by 30 secs each year.  Thirty secs a twelvemonth meant 2.5 secs a month; 2.5 secs a calendar calendar month was 0.65 secs a hebdomad and 0.65 secs a hebdomad was 0.08 secs a day.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;That means, if he did two preparation Sessions a day, Hadrian only had to better his velocity each clip by one four centesimal of a 2nd to go Olympic Champion.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Adrian Moorhouse winning the Olympic Gold Medal&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;It's easy when you look at it like that (or is it?)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Moorhouse's point is that, as his experienced proved, small improvements collect into large ones, in concern as in sport.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;The powerfulness and lucidity of his address is still with me today.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Can you utilize Adrian's attack and interruption down your ends / aims into day-to-day ones?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Which sporting hero have got you seen give a motivational speech?&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/458060558823454718-6845477462371108148?l=drowsypoet.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://drowsypoet.blogspot.com/feeds/6845477462371108148/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=458060558823454718&amp;postID=6845477462371108148' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/458060558823454718/posts/default/6845477462371108148'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/458060558823454718/posts/default/6845477462371108148'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://drowsypoet.blogspot.com/2008/12/sports-and-business-have-much-in-common.html' title='Sports and Business Have Much in Common'/><author><name>Dawson</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06214769896560718181</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-458060558823454718.post-139192149383602198</id><published>2008-12-09T21:31:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2008-12-09T21:31:50.363-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='unresolved anger'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='EFT'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='get what i want'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='alpha state'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='stress'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='self awareness'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='slow down brain waves'/><title type='text'>Why You Are Not Getting What You Want</title><content type='html'>&lt;div xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'&gt; &lt;p&gt;Have you gone on infinite personal development courses, read plenty of books, watched the pictures and your life is still not showing the improvements your had hoped for?  You are not alone.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;After a workshop or after reading a great book you probably experience energised, uplifted and inspired, but in the human face of the day-to-day emphasis these emotional highs be given not to last long.  Back to your day-to-day routine, the foreman is still an inconsiderate ego oppressed individual, your children are a challenge and your partner is stressed and flooded with work problems.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;These are the worlds we all face.  I too spent old age on courses, reading books in hunt of a tool that would work.  It took me old age to calculate out that my jobs had very small to make with what was going on around me. Iodine did not realise just to what widen I was simply feeding off the energies of other people when I was attending personal development courses.  Yes, I would come up away a reformed individual full of great thoughts of how I would change my life around.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;All these good purposes lasted until the minute I encountered a challenge.  I went through a time period in my life where I had nil but challenges.  My matrimony drop apart, my darling father died and I lost tons in trade goods trading.  Not a pretty picture.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;People would state me to loosen up and iciness out.  Whenever I heard that advice I was ready to pounce.  There was a batch of unsolved choler inside me. This choler prevented me from seeing how I was making things harder on myself than they needed to be, thus fuelling my frustration, emphasis and sense of overpower as my life simply was not going the manner I had planned.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Through regular speculation and eft and the survey of the works of the head I came to realise that relaxation is the key.  When you loosen up your head travels into an alpha state.  The slower encephalon moving ridges let you to detect what you are thinking and how your thoughts, based on your beliefs, have got consequences.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Once you go aware how you bring forth ideas that are counter productive to the results you want you will eventually halt them.  You cannot carry on behaving in ways that are producing negative results.  It is against your nature.  Alas, you first demand to be aware of how you bring forth these thoughts.  Self consciousness gives you power.  It gives you powerfulness over yourself and thus over your life.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;You can larn to loosen up and keep an alpha state of head for longer and longer periods.  When you larn to stand up back and larn to witnesser yourself from the outside, your encephalon moving ridges slow down.  You go more than aware of your thinking.  Self consciousness gives you picks and that is why it is so of import that you develop the accomplishment of expanding your cognitive awareness.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In an alpha state you will detect how you make common emphasis behaviours, like procrastination, or deficiency job solving abilities by focusing incorrectly without realising it.

Your intuition directs you information in the followers five different ways:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;1.  The most common is physically.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In receiving information through your physical body, you might explicate 	intuition as having a "gut feeling" or "your tummy is in knots." Another 	popular manner is when the hair stand ups up on the dorsum of your neck.  For 	me, a strong message of consciousness is goose bumps.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;2.  Secondly, and probably more than common to women is emotions.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;We cognize instantly when something doesn't experience right, or a temper changes, 	and a fast like and disfavor of something.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In our human race today we are often experience pressured to "do something, fall in 	something, or purchase something" and we intuitively cognize we should state 	"no!" - yet we travel ahead.  Moving forward on this determination often conveys 	regrets.  When our first inherent aptitude is to reject something, we often cannot 	explain "why" to someone.  To us, it just 	didn't experience right.  This is intuition in 	action and working for you.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;3.  Thirdly, we have information mentally: Our head often gives us a 2nd voice in the background that says: "No, yes, bend here, etc." Again, we often disregard our intuitive voice and happen ourselves caught in a traffic jam or something to that effect.  We constantly 2nd conjecture ourselves and sorrow hearing to that interior voice later.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;4.  The 4th manner we have is spiritually.  For me, this agency there is something far greater than us in the universe.  When we are connected to this Source, our intuition is greater than anything we can imagine.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;5.  Lastly, we have through the environment.  I am a house truster that everything haps for a reason.  From my childhood, I was taught to pay attending to symbolism and events as messages being given to us.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;For example: Your computing machine ups and discontinues and you are forced to halt 	working and expression after the problem.  Now this tin cause stress, but I 	also cognize that it happened for a ground and I was being told to halt what I 	was doing.  Perhaps you are given a mark to take some clip off to make 	something you may have got been putting off for a long time, like updating 	your coverage policies or phone call a ill friend.  Maybe, it's clock to name and 	connect to a existent cunning "techie" support guy.  I just cognize that it makes not pay 	to acquire upset, but instead to inquire yourself, "Why and what make I necessitate to look 	at or do?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;So how make we harness out intuition more?  I like to state that determination your intuition is like determination a trail.  In this lawsuit the T.R.A.I.L (an acronym) stands for the following:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;T-Trust the information you acquire when you acquire it.  -Try to believe back to modern times when you did wage attending to your intuition and recollection what you experienced.  As you remember your success's, you will eagerly and confidently trust your ability and interior voice more than and more to do the right determinations for you.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;R-Relax your mind: Brand "why not and what if?" two of your favourite questions.  Give yourself clip to make crossword puzzle puzzles, and drama more games to maintain your head unfastened to new things and ideas.  Meditation is very powerful in helping you hear your interior voice and to loosen up more.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;A- Awareness- Intuition can be so elusive that we often lose its messages, so dwell your life consciously and be more than than aware of your thoughts.  We cannot s hear our intuition speech production if we make not larn to halt the yak in our head or happen some quietness.  Suggestion- close off the radio, cadmium participant and stereo systems when you are alone in the auto or at home, so you can hear your interior voice better.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I- Imagination- this is the ability to believe outside the box, which is very helpful in developing your intuition.  Here are a few ideas:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;amp;bull;	When you acquire dressed each day, inquire your ego why did you take the reddish lawsuit or the bluish dress?  Colors transport energies and we take them because we necessitate its energy at that time.  You inquire yourself what that colour intends to you.  Bashes redness do you experience confident, powerful, loosen up and assured?  Bashes the bluish brand you experience more than than feminine, softer, more attractive and perhaps calm and peaceful?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;L-Listen: - intuition is not logical.  If we are caught up in our lives we cannot give our intuition a safe topographic point to work and hear its message.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Have you noticed that if you allow travel of ego, fears, or any negative thoughts, you acquire better consequences with hearing your intuition?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Intuition is a fantastic and natural sense that we all have, and if you believe about it, you couldn't halt being intuitive this minute any more than than you could halt hearing the sounds around you.  Simply let yourself to describe what you're picking up in response to a question.  Be in a state of allowing and see the miracles happen!&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/458060558823454718-422152410697940141?l=drowsypoet.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://drowsypoet.blogspot.com/feeds/422152410697940141/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=458060558823454718&amp;postID=422152410697940141' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/458060558823454718/posts/default/422152410697940141'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/458060558823454718/posts/default/422152410697940141'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://drowsypoet.blogspot.com/2008/12/harness-your-intuition.html' title='Harness Your Intuition'/><author><name>Dawson</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06214769896560718181</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-458060558823454718.post-1808277934696516915</id><published>2008-12-03T11:12:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2008-12-03T11:12:12.723-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Paramahansa Yogananda'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='affirmations'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='dating'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='romance'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='god'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='soulmate'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='guru'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='divine love'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='love'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='marriage'/><title type='text'>The Cosmic Romance</title><content type='html'>&lt;div xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'&gt; &lt;p&gt;How are we going to cultivate Godhead love when the human race as a whole have lost the existent definition of the word?  Man have so abused the significance of love that so few cognize what existent love is. True love permeates our whole creative activity the same manner oil is within every atom of the olive.  It is not easy to define love, as it is impossible to completely depict in words the spirit of an orange.  With love you have got to enjoy its fruit to cognize and savor its flavor.  Most of us have got tasted love in one word form or another in our hearts; that is how we cognize a small about its meaning.  But most of us have got not learned how to develop, purify and enlarge our human love into Godhead love.  Man, not able to cultivate love have got lost the original flicker that existed in all Black Maria from the beginning of life.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Many people acknowledge that the feeling or the attractive force they have for their friends and relations is love and believe it unneeded to analyse what love really is. There is so much more than to love than just that.  The lone existent manner to explicate what true love is to you is depict its effect.  You could not incorporate yourself it is so overpowering....so great would be your felicity and joyousness if you could experience just a bantam atom of existent Godhead love.  The fulfilment of love is never in the feeling itself but the felicity and joyousness that feeling gives to you.  Those who believe love is the ultimate intoxicant happiness, make not cognize the true ultimate is bliss, ever-conscious, ever-existing, ever-new bliss.  Just as love is native to the soul, it is still secondary to joyousness for there is no love without joy.  That is why the existent experience of love is always together with joy.  Sometimes joyousness gets without any stuff cause as it is not subject to outer conditions.  It sometimes looks absent of any stuff cause.  You may leap out of bed 1 morning time feeling "lighter than air" full of joyousness and make not cognize why.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;However there are outer statuses that tin cause joyousness to show itself from within; like receiving a big sum of money of money and cheering out "I'm so happy!" this status of receiving all this money have simply assisted in releasing a flowing of cascading joyousness from within the concealed pool of ever new bliss.  In individual experiences there are peculiar events that are generally necessary to convey joy.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The cosmopolitan nature of love is the Godhead powerfulness of attractive force and have many faces.  There is fatherly love which is based on reason, while motherly love is unconditional and is based on feeling, there is love between the retainer and his maestro which is based entirely on common benefit; there is friendly human relationship which is the expansive relationship of human love that is pure and without compulsion, then there is God's love which is the peak love and is the perfect love between the psyche and spirit.  There is conjugal love which is idealistic and a great look of human love where a adult male go forths his father and female parent and cleaves to his wife.  However connubial love is very tricky, and the bulk of people will go forth this Earth with small satisfaction in their hearts.  They have got sought after stuff love in the incorrect way.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Beware the whip of a beautiful face.  Those who are mostly attracted by a good-looking faces and visual aspects which happens their soul-mates inch the cemetery of gorgeous and wonderfully decked-out forms, unaware that a Satan or devil may be home within.  Souls of ignorance that dwell gorgeous organic structures are graves of flesh that screen up horrid skeletons.  To dwell and be like that is the same as being dead.  Therefore the most of import makings there is for a perfect matrimony is that if neither 1 is Negro Negro Negro spiritual nor you happen a spiritual adult male or a spiritual woman... you should not acquire married; you will not be loved.  Every female parent and every father should learn this to their children.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Fear not, there is a concealed supplication avowal for those who pray, given by the Negro spiritual Masters and the great one's which is the promise to forestall you from making a error in choosing your true life comrade or soul-mate.  These supplications make have got some prerequisites.  They must be practiced for a lower limit of six calendar months with concentrated religion and have got effected a dear attunement with the Heavenly Father during your supplications and meditation.  By continuously affirming this supplication desire, you will be blessed and get married an appropriate mate; but if you were attracted to one who is basically incompatible and mismatched the Heavenly Father will forestall you from making an wrong pick by changing the circumstances.  This supplication petition should be done at the end of your speculation and with deep attention; affirm "Divine Father, according to Thy perfect law of psyche labor union bestow on me your approvals that I pull and take my perfect life mate."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;However there is an interior solitariness a hubby or a married woman can never fill.  You can be totally in love with your hubby or married woman but may be feeling up to here with human love yet that love cannot range what Supreme Being have made for himself alone.  Supreme Being have made his creative activity full proof...without Him you will never cognize love.  The less love you have got the lonelier you feel.  The deficiency of love is the deficiency of God.  Because your psyche have forgotten its human relationship with Supreme Being through infinite incarnations.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;There was a very heated up statement between two disciples, so they went to their guru don (spiritual master) for council to settle down the statement and to make up one's mind who was right.  To their surprise his reply to them was to "love Supreme Being more" and that was his advice to many others who had grudges with each other.  They pondered, "how makes that work out our disagreements?" Loving Supreme Being more alterations everything because the 1 thing that Supreme Being is yearning for and makes not possess in His blissful being in heavenly Eden is our love and our attention.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;God have imposed the indistinguishable trouble on himself as on his children.  He have given adult male free volition to reject him or seek him.  Supreme Being is pursuing every heart, watching and waiting for His children to reject His creative activity and move towards Him and those who move towards Him will pull the One that gives all.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;There have got been so many studies of close decease experiences where these studies were all establish to be similar or identical.  Those with close decease experiences who died and came back said they were asked who have got you loved?  It is so easy to love your contiguous family, isn't it?  What about everyone else?  Remember it is Supreme Being who dwells in the carnal temple of the righteous, the error-stricken and your dear ones.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;There are those who experience a waterlessness in their Black Maria and make not cognize how to love Supreme Being while some have got got a deficiency of religion and have no thought on how to be devotional.  When they speak about Supreme Being they believe of Him as a venerable Being in some distant Heaven sitting on a throne.  They believe to themselves, " I make not cognize God, so how can I experience love for an unknown region God." Bash not presume that Supreme Being is enjoying himself in his celestial being in selfish joy.  Supreme Being is definitely agony the letdown of man's denial of Him because it is He who have caused this separation and unless we travel to Him willingly He is not able to put us free from suffering or Himself in his celestial Paradise.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;A pupil asked the guru, Paramahansa Yogananda "what would you and the great one's state us to make in our speculations to cultivate love for Supreme Being and spread out our love for all sentient beings?"&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The guru replied, "here is the technique, it is called practicing the presence of God." Stopping Point your eyes and gently turn them upwards at the point between the superciliums and lock them there without straining.  Put your complete attending on the bosom center, conceive of and experience the strongest and top love that you ever felt for another human being.  Saturate every cell of your organic structure with that love.  While that love is encompassing and saturating all of your carnal cells, spread out the feeling of that love as a encompassing domain embracing all your loved ones, your friends and family.  Now conceive of your love ever growing and magnified a thousand modern times and include all the people in the state you dwell in, the state and the Earth saturated with that love.  Feel the whole world, your solar system, existence and galaxies bathing in this tremendous beaming Earth of love.  Unify yourself in that domain of love which saturates the infinitude.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;It is of import to cognize in the beginning of this visual image that the love you experience in your bosom is human love.  But once that love spreads out encircling all things it goes the cosmopolitan love of God.  Many of you light a small fire of longing for Supreme Being but neglect to set combustible in the fire, and it deceases out.  The fire of love and yearning must be lit over and over with every twenty-four hours pattern of self-discipline and meditation.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The love that most people experience for their beloved friends and household is human love.  It is Supreme Being who gives us all those we love; no human love should be bigger than love for God.  The loveable natures in our relations were wisely selected for us as blood brothers and ses with loving parents, so how much greater should our love be for God?  Remember it is Supreme Being that is our continual Parent who through many embodiments of the present, past and future modern times takes attention of us as the instrument of limitless household dealings and parents.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;People that love and adore familial dealings while being neglectful of Supreme Being residing within those relations will have got a sad awakening when decease offprints their household ties.  &lt;br/&gt;Contemplate, if person deceases and is born-again as a neighbour to his anterior home, his former darling household would see and handle him as a alien who moved in adjacent door.  These are the cryptic works of reincarnation.

It is hard to believe offhand of things that rate acknowledgment.  Write out everything that you have got accomplished over the past few old age and everything you are proud of.  With this you are able to look back and see where the lessons are that you have got learned and how it have shaped you to who you are today.  You must appreciate each and every 2nd you have got in life, as no 1 cognizes when it will end.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Your exercising in this journeying is simple.  You are going to retrieve forward.  You can make this alone or with a trusted friend.  Write out everything you want in the adjacent few old age and then talk about it as if it have already happened.  The more than than elaborate and specific you are the more connected you will go and the quicker you will apparent this into your life.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Remember, life is short; you never cognize how many particular minutes you have got left.  Treasure each of them and unrecorded a life full of profusion and happiness.  You rate the best.  You are "the one."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;One nighttime while in Commonwealth Of Australia for work 1 of my best friends and I took a walking on the beach to our sacred topographic point we had met in 4 old age earlier.  We had brought with us names of what we wanted to let go of in our lives and what we wanted to attract.  We lit the tapers and incense we had brought with us and even had some vabotti from Sai Baba, which we placed on our 3rd eye.  I went first.  I read all of the things in my life that I wanted to release.  This included emotions, feelings, and patterns.  When I had completed the list, I stood up.  Amber brushed my full organic structure with some achromatic sage we were burning.  We both set the purpose that this would be released from my life as I ripped up the paper, burned it, and threw the ashes off the cliff.  We repeated the exercising with her listing and followed the same modus operandi with the purposes and the achromatic sage.  As I watched her throw her list, now ash, off the cliffs, I realized how powerful this activity was.  The experiences I had had at these drops old age before had proven to be so magical.  We then took bends with our listings of what we wanted to pull into our lives.  These listings were much longer and with each point that was read, we celebrated as if we already had this in our lives.  When we finished reading our lists, we lit a ice in jubilation of what was ahead in our lives.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Then we played an unbelievable game.  Amber called it "remembering forward." We spent the adjacent two hours "remembering" all of the things we wanted in our lives.  At first it seemed a spot silly and superficial, but as the game got going, it took on a life of its own.  We told narratives of remembering the twenty-four hours our children we wanted were born and the amusing fortune that happened.  We remembered our first dinner political party with Horatio Nelson Nelson Mandela and Oprah there as guests.  We remembered the twenty-four hours our books hit the best-seller listing and we were on The View.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The game went on for hours.  We would express joy hysterically, as we joined each other in memories and added inside information only a great friend could know.  The amusing thing was that a portion of me really felt as though all of that had happened in our lives.  I felt so attached to all of our "pretend" memories that I could experience what it would be like the twenty-four hours they actually will happen.  It was a profound experience and one we revisit frequently in conversations.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Now you have got everything you necessitate to pull and foster your ideal dreaming life.

And for the past twelvemonth or so, I have got been journalling about how I can possibly larn to value myself.  Because I didn't, you see.  Coming from a traumatic childhood, I never believed I had any value.  And Iodine finally began to see that my day-to-day actions were telling me just how small I thought of myself.  But I didn't cognize how to change!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;So, I began to watch people.  People I knew.  People I didn't know.  People on the street, in the malls, everywhere I was, I watched what people did, how they treated themselves, what picks they made--even little ones!  And along with watching people, I began to read about how to value myself.  I read that people who value themselves do good picks for their ain lives.  They understand how to make things (like imbibing and eating, for example) in moderation.  They understand how much they can manage in a day.  They understand their work habits, and they take attention of their physical body.  They do good nutrient choices.  They exercise.  They acquire enough rest.  I read all this and more than about how a individual acts in their day-to-day life, when they believe they have got value.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;As I read all this, I watched people whenever I went out to the promenade or to the park.  I saw the smugglers in their athletics gear, running along the pavements or down the street.  Why make they run?  They run because they care enough about their wellness to desire to maintain their organic structures in good shape.  They desire to have got more than energy.  Because they value themselves, they run.  Amongst other things.  Whenever I would travel to the nutrient carnival at the mall, I would watch people.  I watched the picks they made in foods.  I saw the healthy looking people choosing healthy nutrients in most cases.  Why?  Because healthy nutrient maintain their organic structures looking and feeling strong.  And people who value themselves care enough about themselves to desire to remain healthy and energetic as much as they can.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;And me? I believed I had very small value and I treated myself as such.  I ate the incorrect things most of the time.  I sat on the sofa most of the time.  I overworked myself when at work, and then beat out myself up for not being good enough.  I stayed up too late, I didn't kip well at night, sometimes I would really bust out on nutrient until I felt ill to my stomach.  And other modern times I wouldn't eat at all.  I battled dependences because I didn't cognize how to make things in moderation.  I didn't cognize what was good for me and what was bad for me. And what's worse, I didn't really care.  I was a mess!  I looked bad, felt worse, and I hated myself.  I lived mostly in 'overwhelm' mode.  Why?  Because I had NO thought that I was valuable.  No 1 had ever told me! It was a atrocious portion of my life, and I'm glad to state with each passing play twenty-four hours Iodine am putting it behind me.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;As I read, and as I watched, a few things became clear to me. I began to see that a individual that values themselves makes good things for him/herself.  They handle themselves WELL.  A foreign conception to me. They cognize who they are, how they feel, and what they need.  And they do certain they acquire it.  They give themselves ONLY good things!  And it would never traverse their heads to mistreat themselves.  That would be a foreign conception to THEM!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;One more than thing I have got learned about people who value themselves.  They handle themselves WITH RESPECT!  They are gentle and sort to themselves.  Instead of whipping themselves up if something didn't travel as they'd planned (as I would do) they LOVED themselves through it.  How could I larn to make this?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I learned to make this with the aid of a very fantastic counselor.  She introduced me to my 'inner child'.  And she asked me to handle that kid as I would any child--with loving attention and concern.  And patience.  It was a hard thing to learn.  When I began bashing myself over something, I would seek to believe of the child--would I really handle a kid this way?  When I saw myself as having an interior kid that needful love and care, I began to change.  It took time.  tons of time.  But it's one manner I have got got learned (and am still learning) that I have value.  I am valuable!  And I rate to handle myself with love and respect.  I also began to talk to that portion of my kid that 'didn't care'.  I had to admit her feelings.  I had to seek to understand why she didn't care.  And I've had to state her that it's important to care!  So very, very slowly the kid in me is learning that it's important to care about self.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;It's a procedure I'm calm learning.  But slowly I'm beginning dainty myself as if I matter.  In my twenty-four hours to twenty-four hours life, that is. Iodine am making better choices.  I am loving ego more.  I am keeping promises to myself more than often--instead of making and breakage promises like I used to.  I am giving myself permission to be happy, and to desire good things for my life.  It's been life-altering, truly it has.  And I must acknowledge it experiences really, REALLY good to finally get to care.....about ME.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/458060558823454718-523416599539245735?l=drowsypoet.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://drowsypoet.blogspot.com/feeds/523416599539245735/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=458060558823454718&amp;postID=523416599539245735' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/458060558823454718/posts/default/523416599539245735'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/458060558823454718/posts/default/523416599539245735'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://drowsypoet.blogspot.com/2008/10/value-of-self.html' title='The Value of Self'/><author><name>Dawson</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06214769896560718181</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-458060558823454718.post-6668302978669609090</id><published>2008-10-15T03:50:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2008-10-15T03:50:59.416-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='despair'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='life'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='fear'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='grief'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='hope'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='death'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='gratitude'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='stress'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='living'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='love'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='sad'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='cancer'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='inspirtion'/><title type='text'>The Gift of Death</title><content type='html'>&lt;div xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'&gt; &lt;p&gt;About 10 calendar months ago, I was told by my physician in Capital Of Thailand that I had three different types of cancer, a tumour in the brain, one in my left lung and tegument malignant neoplastic disease on my human face and other parts of my body.  At the same time, my married woman was planning to go back to United States to take attention of her female parent who was dying from cancer.  Talk about your "three-strikes-and-you're-out" rule!  I told the physician that I did not desire to hear any more.  I did not desire to cognize the prognosis, what were option treatments nor how much clip he thought I had left.  I told him I needed to take a walking and make some thinking.  I never went back nor have got I ever looked back.  I went to a beautiful nearby parkland and walked, prayed, meditated and did some serious thinking.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I had to do some important decisions.  The first determination I made was not to state my wife.  Whereas I knew this would make a state of affairs that would be highly problematic future on, the first precedence was to acquire her place to her indisposed female parent who did not have got much clip left.  I did not desire to put her in a place in which she was forced to take between being with me and her mother.  She had been detached from her household for 10 years.  Her female parent and father needed her more than than I. Arsenic things turned out, she did acquire place and was able to take attention of her Ma until she died.  She is still there now taking attention of her father, who also have cancer.  Regardless of the possible repercussions, I experience I made the best pick for her, given the options.  True love always put the individual we love as the figure 1 priority.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Thus began a personal journeying that have been most interesting and rewarding.  I was forced to discontinue working and our fiscal state of affairs deteriorated rapidly.  I began having terror and anxiousness onslaughts and flashbacks.  I couldn't eat or sleep.  I was lonely, afraid and became totally isolated.  I lost touching with all my friends.  I rarely ventured out of my bedroom.  I could not pay my rent nor did I have got enough money for groceries.  I was on my manner out.  I packed my back pack and set it by my door, determined that I would pick it up when the clip was right and caput off into the mounts to decease alone, just as my ancestors, Native Americans, had done in the past.  I had accepted decease but hadn't yet learned how to encompass it.  That was a lesson yet to come.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;One night, I received a totally unexpected phone call from a friend life in Phuket.  He told me his Tai married woman had "seen" me in a dreaming and knew I was in trouble, urging him to name me immediately.  I told him I was all right and that I had made the determination to head for the mountains.  I thanked him for the old age we had been together as friends and workmates and wished him well.  Then I hung up.  &lt;br/&gt;Two years later, he showed up on my doorstep, arranged to hive away most of our property with a friend of his and told me he was bringing me to Phuket and would take attention of me as long as necessary.  I was in no place to argue, I must admit.  We flew to Phuket the followers eventide and I was introduced to my current surroundings, a nice 8X12 ft room where I now reside.  I have got a great position of the mountains, sundowns and dawns and it is quiet, clean and comfortable.  I pass a great trade of clip in meditation, supplication and thinking.  I am so thankful for my friends' generousness and love.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;At first, I was preparing myself to die.  It is not the first clip I have got faced death, but it was the first clip I had clip to believe about it.  The other incidents that decease and I were engaged were the consequences of armed combat or sudden accidents.  One day, not long after my reaching here, I realized I was taking an entirely incorrect approach, accounting for my uncomfortableness with reality.  It came to me during a speculation and would change my life forever.  I was focusing of dying while I should be focusing on living.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I thought of Henry Martin Robert Frost's phrase, "Miles to travel before I sleep," and experienced an contiguous transmutation in my thinking, therefore my life.  I believe most of us, aware of approaching death, have got a inclination to look to the past in order to analyze our legacy.  While I may not always have got made the perfect determinations in my past, I am comfy that I made the best I could, considering my options and ability at the time.  Our bequest is not words etched in stone, but our actions and is establish in the hearts, heads and liquor of those we have got touched along the journey.  I am comfy with what I have got accomplished in that regard, having dedicated my life to helping others.  As for the future?  It stays unknown but whose hereafter ever really is? And is it all that important?  No. The lone thing that is of import is what we make with the here and now.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Are we making the most of each and every moment?  Each breath?  Each thought?  That is what life is all about.  That realisation helped me grip the existent significance of life and recover a sense of intent and passionateness that had abated over the former few months.  I felt re-energized and filled with an expanded awareness, gratitude, joyousness and love, not to advert renewed intent and passion.  My life isn't over.  It is just beginning.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I stopped viewing my status as a curse word and began perceiving it as a gift.  By embracing death, I had learned how to live, not just survive.  By embracing and accepting death, I was free to dwell to my fullest potential.  I stopped worrying about malignant neoplastic disease and welcomed it, even to the point of now referring to it as "my gift." It maintains me focused on the here and now.  As soon as I changed my thinking, my life also changed.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;During day-to-day meditation, I direct my disease love, rather than fighting it.  As a result, I have got gotten stronger.  The terror and anxiousness onslaughts no longer assail me. The incubuses and flashbacks of warfare ceased.  I have got got arrived at one of the most big determinations I have ever made.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I love Thailand.  I left United States 10 old age ago by pick and have got enjoyed life here very much.  I never intended to go back "home" again.  Kingdom Of Thailand have go my home.  However, it is clip to leave.  For one thing, I desire and demand to be with my married woman again.  We have got been apart too long.  We did not put 38 old age into our matrimony in order to dwell apart and alone during our future years.  She cannot leave of absence her father so it is clip for me to travel to her and share the duty of taking attention of a fantastic adult male who have always given us so much.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Secondly, there are still many people in the human race who could still profit from the doctrine of Transformational Thinking and there are three people in United States who desire to larn how to learn it to future generations.  It is clip to learn them.  There is another friend from Republic Of Ghana who is very actively involved in an international attempt to assist larn immature people how to go leadership of tomorrow who also desires to learn how to learn Transformational Thinking and he is currently staying in America.  Oddly enough, he wrote me last nighttime telling me he had just received word that his female parent had died in Republic Of Ghana and I spent hours on-line with him helping him work through his grief, hurting and shock.  Iodine was glad I was here to assist him.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;We waste material far too much clip and energy chasing the replies to the two top enigmas of life: Why are we here and what haps when we die?  I have got finally establish the reply to both: It doesn't matter!  Living with intent and passionateness in the here and now takes attention of the former question.  We can and must each make our ain intent and prosecute it with unbridled passion.  As for the second, living life to the fullest and with expanded consciousness do the latter inquiry a disputed one.  I simply don't have got the desire or clip to worry about the future.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I will be leaving my darling Kingdom Of Thailand in less than three weeks.  Another friend in the United States have generously offered to pay my airplane menu from Phuket to Garrison Lauderdale.  What am I going to make when I acquire there?  I don't know.  I will calculate that out when the clip comes.  Right now, I am only focused on the here and now.  I am totally free!  I am filled with happiness, gratitude and fulfillment.  I am ready to get the adjacent leg of what have always been an exciting escapade of find and learning.  I am alive!  What a fantastic gift I have got been given!&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/458060558823454718-6668302978669609090?l=drowsypoet.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://drowsypoet.blogspot.com/feeds/6668302978669609090/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=458060558823454718&amp;postID=6668302978669609090' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/458060558823454718/posts/default/6668302978669609090'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/458060558823454718/posts/default/6668302978669609090'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://drowsypoet.blogspot.com/2008/10/gift-of-death.html' title='The Gift of Death'/><author><name>Dawson</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06214769896560718181</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-458060558823454718.post-1066145746443676716</id><published>2008-09-26T06:13:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2008-09-26T06:13:41.725-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='America and The Late Great Planet Earth'/><title type='text'>Am I the Only One Who Notices?</title><content type='html'>&lt;div xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'&gt; &lt;p&gt;Well Hello Dolly, I can hear my ma say.   That's what she used to state when she couldn't believe what she was seeing or hearing.   She is now lying in a nursing place in Somerset, Bluegrass State cachexia away and awaiting that concluding minute of issue from the human race as she had known it.   It was from her that I first heard of the awful "mark of beast".   &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;She said no substance what haps I was not to take the grade of the animal and I could read all about it in the "Bible" which I immediately did.   I was about twelve old age old at the clip but the words rang in my head.   Something inch my bosom of Black Maria said to myself, there's something to this.   She referred me to a book phone call Daniel and I read with my very ain eyes the words Daniel was told.   It said, "Seal these things up until the clip of the end when traveling and instruction is vastly increased."  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;For some ground I pondered that quotation mark in my bosom constantly; it was always in the background begging me to seek and set some sort of puzzler together.   I knew from hearing to my ma and grandmother that I'd better be babtized or I was going to hell.   &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;That was was pretty cut and dried to me so the very adjacent clip Iodine could acquire to the Bethany Church of Jesus I went and sat on the presence row waiting for Mr. Gerald Richard Burton to inquire if anyone wanted to be saved at which clip I got up and floated and I intend floated down the islet to the preacher.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; I must have got answered all his inquiries correctly because at around 2 Prime Minister that twenty-four hours I establish myself being dunked in the coldest brook you could conceive of and came up out of the H2O to the sounds of old work force and women vocalizing "Shall We Gather At The River.   That was ok, I was SAVED!   No going to Perdition for me buddy.   Of course of study as soon as I got place my blood brother started smacking in top the caput saying you can't make anything now or you'll be sinning.   &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Times were very difficult so before long my ma packed us up and moved to Liberty, the great large 1 circle town i joined the Navy from.   As soon as Iodine turned 17 I left.   I had already managed to acquire myself engaged to some male child that Iodine was for certain I didn't love so I had to believe fast.   Anyway off I went to boot encampment and to the large human race out yonder that I hadn't seen yet.   They gave us a small greenness Gideon bible, all of us, to take to boot encampment with us.   Believe Maine it came in handy.   That's when I really started reading the Bible.   &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;My first duty station establish me alone for the first clip and it was excruciating for the first twelvemonth emotionally.   I went into a grocery shop shop in Pensacola Sunshine State with a friend and noticed they sold suds in the store there!   I'd never seen a grocery shop store sell suds before so I was already on alert and when we went thru the bank check out counter all the points went bleep as they scanned the figure we now name a barroom codification which rang up the point instead of the teller having to peal it up the now old manner way.   But arsenic Iodine watched this Iodine retrieve clearly thinking about the grade of the animal and how all of a sudden I could understand how we could acquire caught up in a system where we had to have got a figure to purchase and sell goods, just like the Book warned.   &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I wondered even at that point how long Iodine would be able to throw out under utmost hunger, especially if Iodine had kids, if I ever had to travel without because of loyalty to me faith.   From that point on I read the Book an hr a day.   If something large was going to go on during my lifespan I didn't desire to take anyone else's formulate for it I wanted to read it myself.   So Iodine read at least an hr a twenty-four hours and stayed broad eyed while out in the human race just waiting for the drape to fall and Jesus Of Nazareth to come up flying out of the sky just like my ma said.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; I learned a batch but didn't have got a hint about what was really happening in the human race around me.  I worked constantly and really got lost in the work and didn't care.   Fast forward to my 4th duty duty assignment which was in Raleigh, NC.   It was a recruiting territory central office so my occupation was sort of like a civilian occupation which intends we had no duty which intends I had plenty of free time.   So Iodine somehow came across a book titled "The Late Great Planet Earth" by Hal Lindsey.   &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I can't retrieve all the anticipations made in that book but two of them stood out.   The first 1 was that an addition in the amount of people on telecasting who claimed to be able to state the hereafter or talking to people's dead relations would be happening and go increasingly popular.   Wa la!  And sol it did.   You can't turn the telecasting on without watching luck Tellers make their thing miraculously.   Second, Mr. Lindsey predicted a rise in drug dependence which would be a major word form of misrepresentation used by the "devil" in his in progress effort to kill, steal, and basically destruct all human life.   &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I really related to that because before Iodine joined the Navy, everyone and I intend everyone I knew was doing some sorts of drugs just for the merriment of it.   Addition didn't even come up to mind then.   Only feeling good for the moment.   &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Then after I joined the Navy, for the first twelvemonth everyone in the Navy seemed to be smoke pot or doing coke or something to assist them thru the day.   I managed to maintain myself insulated from the drug human race because everyone who stayed in the Navy took drug diagnostic tests and were kicked out if they popped positive for use.   After Iodine retired and had spent 20 sheltered old age with military force I went consecutive into the civilian community and met nil but Crack nuts and heroine nuts who would lie consecutive to  you human face to acquire your money.   &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;These people are the best prevaricators in the human race because they have got to be to maintain up their addictions.   I understand how easy in this state it is to acquire addicted to something.   Go to the physician and they'll give you hurting pills for anything.   Anyway, since I retired I've had clip to halt and expression around at the outside human race and actually read about what is and had be going on in the Center East, what the stock marketplace is about and the political dirt constantly shoved in my human face on television.   Remember all Iodine had to travel on that was going to go on in my hereafter was what little interpreting I could carry through by reading the Book myself.   &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;And have got you ever tried to understand the Biblical Book of Revelations?   Take A shot, I make bold you.  My hubby of three old age now watched the stock marketplace day-to-day from morning time til close.   He also have his ain laptop computer and trading platform so he can merchandise pillory at place independent of a stock broker.   He lost over one-half a million dollars during the stud com clang so he is very learned when it come ups to the stock market.   However, helium hasn't read all the confederacy material I've read during the last three old age so he isn't so speedy to experience manipulated by the mass media as I do.   It started when iodine decided to drill "speaking in tongues" as promised by the Book as a gift bestowed on people who have got got the Holy Place Spirit residing in their physical bodies.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; I claim to have that since I was babtized.   Anyway since it sounds like a foreign linguistic communication I first set out to understand what I was speaking by studying linguistic communications and how they came about.   I ran across information about Toilet Dee and Mr. Kelly.   According to widipedia they discovered an angelic language.   I ordered the book and tried to read it but it was so 1600 advertisement like that once I was certain that the processing they were using to larn this angelic linguistic communication was what is called scrying, or what magicians or luck Tellers are accused of and that is conjuring up devils through rites performed and ordering them to make their bidding.   &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;They called it Enochian Alphabet or linguistic communication after the adult male Enoch who is mentioned in the Book as being so fold to Supreme Being that he never died; Supreme Being took him alive.   Kind of like an Ascension similar to Jesus's "beam me up" moment.   Anyway Iodine went from that to learning about secret societies and how and why the Gallic revolution came about and how the United States of United States really came about...not what we were told in school.   &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Well in all equity the school taught us right but just left out the secret society stuff, probably because it was secret.   Supposedly the Knights Templars evolved into the Freemasons who broke free from the combination of Christian church and state and created the first existent democracy acknowledging that "In Supreme Being They Trusted".   &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Anyway I learned that all these secret societies, though they were trying to interrupt free of religion, actually do vows every  step of the manner until they acquire to the 33rd grade and then they curse commitment to Satan which is what I name the devil.   The people, including my dad, don't really understand what curses they are taking.   According to my dad, he just did what they told him to do, just sort of drama along so he could be portion of a grouping that makes make unbelievable charity work.   But the charity work is like a presence business, sort of like person who runs a pawn store as a screen for running drugs in the background.   &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;According to confederacy theorists, who I go on to believe are on to something, there is an unseeable manus running things behind the scenes to convey about a 1 human race government.   Just this week, somehow a batch of Banks and fiscal establishments were set out of concern or had to register for bankruptcy owed to short merchandising in the stock market.   From what I've seen and read you couldn't pay me enough to seek to do money in the stock market.  But William Jennings Bryan is really smart financially and if there is money to be made he'll be the 1 to do it.   &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Anyway you can't watch the stock marketplace for long without realizing drug companies are constantly trying out new drugs on people and I believe just to acquire them addicted so people will have got to maintain disbursement money for their product.   And piece United States acquires numb, the human race is changing around them without anyone realizing it.   Everybody's high or intoxicated or sleeping off some sort of anti-anxiety pill.   Daily, Islamic Republic Of Iran is threatening to blow State Of Israel off the map and universities in our states are turning all the immature people into athiest and communist, temporarily transforming the state into a socialistic state thru welfare, and the authorities bailing the marketplace out everytime it begins to crash.   I have got got read recently that it is possible to have a bit as large as a grain of rice imbedded into your tegument and you can be tracked by artificial satellite anywhere in this world.   That don't sound good to me.  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Also, since the cyberspace came out and I have got my plastic standard atmosphere card, I rarely see hard cash anymore; no demand for it.  But what haps when we begin relying on a figure or a piece of plastic to eat and the lone manner to obtain groceries, gas or anything else?   Especially if the ruler of the state at the clip take a firm stands we worship him or her in order to utilize the system?   Kind of chilling to me.  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I can see how the conflict of Armageddon could come up about in my lifespan especially over a natural resource like oil.  I can see how there will never be peace in the Center East because of the clang between Muslims and Jews and Christians and their basic differences in the manner they believe and they all are fighting to have got Capital Of Israel when their peculiar Jesus come ups place to put up their kingdom.   Wonder which grouping will be right.   I'm betting on Jesus Of Nazareth Of Nazareth because he is the lone 1 who sacrificed for me.  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;And the more than Iodine larn about curse words and charming I'm really going with Jesus.   What make you think?   Are we at the threshold of a 3rd warfare which will probably be nuclear?   And is it faith again causing all of this?   &lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/458060558823454718-1066145746443676716?l=drowsypoet.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://drowsypoet.blogspot.com/feeds/1066145746443676716/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=458060558823454718&amp;postID=1066145746443676716' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/458060558823454718/posts/default/1066145746443676716'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/458060558823454718/posts/default/1066145746443676716'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://drowsypoet.blogspot.com/2008/09/am-i-only-one-who-notices.html' title='Am I the Only One Who Notices?'/><author><name>Dawson</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06214769896560718181</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-458060558823454718.post-5118651468490039789</id><published>2008-09-16T06:03:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2008-09-16T06:03:47.061-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='cubicle'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='party'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='office ideas'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='customizing your cubicle'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='work'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='office'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='job'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='motivation'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='boring work'/><title type='text'>Work is Burning You Out?

But having these feelings also inhibits us and do us fear.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Having an egotism offprints us from the existence and from God, this enactment of separation do the fearfulness of loss.  It is this fearfulness of loss that brands us desire control.  Control of the existence and everything in it - if we cannot control it we may lose it.  The Ego Michigan us trusting in the universe.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;It is Ego that is stopping people experiencing the pleases of what the existence have to offer.  Without Ego we can go limitless and boundless.  We can happen new powers, new creativity, new chances for growth, for love, for harmony, peace and joyousness in our lives that before we allow travel of our Ego we could not get to conceive.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;How make you free yourself of  Ego?  We have got all been taught to allow your head do the determinations and not to listen to your heart.  Your head after all, is a terrific machine and can work anything out.  Ego is this barrier between the bosom and the mind.  The demand to show your positions on a given subject - because you 'know' it to be right, regardless of whether people desire to listen or not.  Ignoring the feelings of others because your actions are the 'right' actions to take.  These are both illustrations of the Ego at work.  Both illustrations of our demand to 'control'.  The Ego believes it cognizes best.  The voice of the bosom doesn't stand up a chance.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;We have got not been taught that what is simple is what is right.  The existence runs simply.  Balance and harmoniousness in the natural world, in the animate being world.  Any human race that makes not have got Ego, runs very simply.  It looks the end of Negro spiritual beliefs to spell back us to our connexion to that universe, to our Eternity so that we, too, can dwell simply, in balance and harmoniousness with all that is. If indeed this is the goal, the intent of that goal, the intent of letting travel of ego, is to also allow spell of the changeless fearfulness in which we all live.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Letting go of Ego is a very difficult lesson to learn.  Very hard.  But despite its difficulty, it looks to be the lone lesson if it is your end to accomplish peace.  Or enlightenment.  It is the lone lesson if your end is to attain that topographic point where you can truly say: "I don't desire to be better than you; I desire to be better than me."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;And so letting spell of the egotism is a difficult process, which is also a very chilling process.  But losing the egotism is also a fantastic thing.  It conveys us closer to our hearts.  It enables us to experience more than than we have got ever felt.  It can enable us to see ourselves in a totally different manner and in doing so, happen new dimensions to ourselves.  The loss of egotism may give us the sense that we are living near to our souls.  Until we begin the procedure of turning down and finally shutting off the voice of Ego, the voice of our Black Maria cannot be heard.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;One manner to begin this procedure is to acknowledge when your Ego coming into play.  Whether it is by you wanting to rectify someone, explicate that their positions are wrong (in your head anyway), if you experience choler at person for their actions towards you.  Then admit these feelings to yourself, be it confusion, anger, hatred, or frustration,what ever they may be.  Just experience them flowing through your body.  Bash not act.  Just feel.  Stop yourself from reacting.  From passing judgement.  Just allow it be.  Gradually overtime the Ego will not be as strong and will begin to loosen it's throw over your heart.  This not only do you aware of how often your Ego come ups into play, it will also astonish you how quickly you begin to experience different in yourself.  How the peace within you turns as your Ego diminishes.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The remotion of egotism is a Negro spiritual idea.  It takes the word form of existent human race experiences.  Supreme Being is us and we are God's operatives.  These experiences that Supreme Being gives us are of import not so much for what they are but more than for what they teach.  And one version of what they learn is that they are there to let us to cast our egotism and link with God.  And one ground we necessitate to link with Supreme Being is to allow us to let travel of fear.  And one ground we necessitate to allow travel of fearfulness is that it is fearfulness that offprints us from each other and in so doing, maintains us from determination ourselves.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/458060558823454718-2736171996676471684?l=drowsypoet.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://drowsypoet.blogspot.com/feeds/2736171996676471684/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=458060558823454718&amp;postID=2736171996676471684' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/458060558823454718/posts/default/2736171996676471684'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/458060558823454718/posts/default/2736171996676471684'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://drowsypoet.blogspot.com/2008/09/what-is-ego.html' title='What is Ego'/><author><name>Dawson</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06214769896560718181</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-458060558823454718.post-6662034471868476869</id><published>2008-09-10T06:08:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2008-09-10T06:08:27.619-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Humanity'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Gaia'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Self Discovery'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Earth'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Enlightenment'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Souls'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='consciousness'/><title type='text'>Gaia and the Soul of Humanity</title><content type='html'>&lt;div xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'&gt; &lt;p&gt;I was sitting in a eating house on a hot summertime eventide and Iodine started to look around me. I glanced from one tabular array to the other at all the different food, so many different colours, smells and shapes.  It struck me how much the World functions us, not just to fulfill hungriness and thirst but also to give us enjoyment.  The World is a supplier that assists us carry through our dreams.  Why is this?  Why makes the World forfeit so much for us?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The World is our support system, we are a portion of a squad and our success takes to the success of Gaia, our failure is her destruction.  We were all meant to work as a team, humans, the elements, works and animate beings but world gradually detached herself from her friends and from her soul.  Our psyches cognize the Byzantine works of the planet, everything depends on everything else, everyone depends on everyone else.  The complex web of life.  All thoughts, words and actions have got consequences.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Humanity is leading the manner but which manner are we going?  Where we go, Gaea travels too, such as is our responsibility.  Elevation our consciousness will raise the consciousness of our planet.  We necessitate to acquire involved with our psyches and convey them into our lives, our mundane lives, we necessitate to open up our heads to the huge possibilities available to us.  There are many worlds, many realities, all interacting, and one dimension can act upon others.  We are not detached from human races we can't see with our physical eyes even though we may believe otherwise.  Ripples of life range across the Universe like whispers, to topographic points seen and unseen, physical and non-physical.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;It is clip to acquire to cognize each other, to listen, accept and regard the diverseness of our world, it is clip to rediscover the ancient cognition that our psyches carry, it is clip to detect who we really are.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/458060558823454718-6662034471868476869?l=drowsypoet.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://drowsypoet.blogspot.com/feeds/6662034471868476869/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=458060558823454718&amp;postID=6662034471868476869' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/458060558823454718/posts/default/6662034471868476869'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/458060558823454718/posts/default/6662034471868476869'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://drowsypoet.blogspot.com/2008/09/gaia-and-soul-of-humanity.html' title='Gaia and the Soul of Humanity'/><author><name>Dawson</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06214769896560718181</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-458060558823454718.post-6156212462803512607</id><published>2008-09-06T12:01:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2008-09-06T12:01:27.116-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='motivation'/><title type='text'>No Pain, No Gain?</title><content type='html'>&lt;div xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'&gt; &lt;p&gt;Have you ever watched people endure at the gym?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I retrieve one peculiar adult male who always reminded me of a medieval priest self-flagellating inch penalty for his sins.  Drive himself into his sixteenth set of 85 repeats at a weight three modern times his own, he seemed to take a perverse pleasance in torturing his organic structure on a day-to-day basis.  Every clip I saw him, he was wearing a new knee joint poise or elbow joint poise or cervix poise (at one point he showed up with his leg in a cast of characters to work his upper body)!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The myth of "no pain, no gain" is pervading in our society.  Whether it manifests in your life at the gym, in the office, or in your human relationships (!), most of us happen ways of punishing ourselves for the best of all possible purposes - to assist us to grow, and to actuate ourselves to go "better" people.  The lone job is it doesn't work.  Oh, it might work for an hour, a day, or even a month, but over clip the hurting slices and we happen ourselves right back in the old form of behaviour.  Or worse still, we penalize ourselves, experience bad, and then eat bar and take drugs and do things we'll repent later in order to make the bad feelings we've just created spell away....&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Allow me to share my personal doctrine on the subject.  I can summarize it up in a simple phrase:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;No Pain, no pain!  &lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;It's not that I believe hurting must be avoided at all costs, or that we should give up on something we cognize we desire to make as soon as it acquires difficult.  It's just that I've go aware that when we are pursuing our ends and life our dreams, some of what we make is painful, and some of it isn't.  You don't acquire any other points for suffering, unless you make up the regulations of the game that way...&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;You can make today's experimentation at home, or if you prefer, at the gym.  I utilize the illustration of sit-ups, but any exercising from jogging to the bench fourth estate to Yoga will do.  As with all exercise, be certain you've taken expert advice, including your own, before attempting anything more strenuous than your usual routine...&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;1.  Bash a few sit-ups the manner you would normally make them.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;2.  Stop, and make at least five sit-ups arsenic penalty for all the fatty nutrients you've eaten in the past week.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;3.  Now, make at least five sit-ups arsenic an enactment of self-love.  Think about the astonishing miracle that is your body, and if it's not too bromidic for you, give thanks your tummy musculuses for keeping your trunk strong.  (If it is too bromidic for you, acquire over it!  :-)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;4.  Notice which experience was more than like your normal exercising experience.  If you enjoyed the experience of exercising as an enactment of self-love, transport on with that mental attitude and wonder at the wages your organic structure will give you as your regular modus operandi is infused with a new energy and awareness.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Have fun, larn heaps, be safe, and remember:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;No pain, no pain!  &lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/458060558823454718-6156212462803512607?l=drowsypoet.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://drowsypoet.blogspot.com/feeds/6156212462803512607/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=458060558823454718&amp;postID=6156212462803512607' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/458060558823454718/posts/default/6156212462803512607'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/458060558823454718/posts/default/6156212462803512607'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://drowsypoet.blogspot.com/2008/09/no-pain-no-gain.html' title='No Pain, No Gain?'/><author><name>Dawson</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06214769896560718181</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-458060558823454718.post-8427332993864395712</id><published>2008-09-04T19:52:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2008-09-04T19:52:23.983-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='motivation techinques'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='inspiration'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='motivation'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='succeed'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='strategy for success'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='motivation strategy'/><title type='text'>Motivation Techniques And Strategy For Success: Truth About How To Succeed In Life Every Time</title><content type='html'>&lt;div xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'&gt; &lt;p&gt;Using simple techniques and schemes along with a powerful motive for success, you can win in life at anything every time.  - Let's happen out how!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I was talking to a friend over dinner and he was just telling me how he met his wife, who he have been with for 17 old age now and counting.  They are still in love like as if they just met - A great success narrative I must say.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;He told me how his former girlfriend had left him, how he was depressed, and how he really wanted to fill up that spread in his life.  One twelvemonth had past, all motive techniques were useless, and he still wasn't himself, he had lost his drive, and it was affecting his work as well.  There was no Motivation for success any more.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;One day, he decided to unbend his life out, and the best way, was to take a trip so he can unclutter his head.  He promised himself that when he would be back that he will be a new man, full of energy, a ardor to win and would surely happen himself person he loves - and loves him back.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;While he was in Malaysia, he got caught up in the center of a barroom fight, where a broken glass injured him.  He was taken to the infirmary for stitches.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;...  To cut a long narrative short, he met his hereafter married woman in the hospital.  - He succeeded, he was motivated once again.  What happened was that she came in to see a friend who was ill, they talked a spot - nil much happened then, but soon after, they met at the airport, they were on the same flight, and there you have got it...  17 old age later he is happily married with three kids...  Talk about techniques and strategy, there was none... motive to win was the winner.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Now, our narratives may not always be as glamourous as my friend's, - but it may be, if we take a near look...  Success and motive are cardinal participants in getting anything you want, but technique cannot be overlooked either.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;So, what did we larn from this story?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This life we dwell in, is full of mysteries, and we cannot have got absolute control over the things that go on to us, and when, no substance the techniques and schemes we apply.  However, when we are motivated and ready for something, and really desire it bad adequate to work our manner towards achieving success, we will eventually win at it for sure.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;You may have got been in a similar situation, where you wanted to win at something so bad, and you decided on the best technique and scheme to travel about getting it.  Eventually you happen yourself facing so many difficulties, that you just wanted to give up.  However, just because of the motivation, desire and attempt you had already set in, you could not halt moving forward to success.  You still kept pushing, and eventually what you were seeking just came to you without effort.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;You thought to yourself... why all the hassle?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Or did you give up before it happened?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I've tried for some clip now, to analyze this phenomenon, to happen if there is a formula, a technique on how things really work.  I came up with an reply based on a popular expression "God assists those who assist themselves".&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;What I discovered is that, if we make nil about it, we will acquire nothing.  But if we seek difficult enough, believing that it will work, it will eventually fall into our laps...  Even if the consequences are not directly related to our attempt and techniques.  The motive for success and the targeted enactment alone is cogent evidence enough that we really desire it and we will acquire it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;A very simple illustration is what happened to me just last month.  Whenever I begin a new project, I have got this wont of trying to equilibrate my payments with another- actually, it's just so I acquire the sense experience that it is free money I'm putting into that investment.  Iodine cognize it's silly, but it works for me.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I hired person to construct a new software system that volition cost me $7,000.  So now, I needed to equilibrate that payment.  To make this, I will desire to take on a new client just for that purpose.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;What happened adjacent was amazing; - After my hunt for a new client to equilibrate that payment (I applied Motivation and techniques for success).  I got an electronic mail 2 hebdomads later from an old client I had not spoken to in 4 years, and he referred me to person who needed my aid with a website.  What he wanted was an auction bridge land site just like eBay as well as the schemes to do it work.  Guess what, I make run an auction bridge business, and conjecture what again.  I sold my usage script, plus some hours of consulting for $7,500.  How eldritch is that?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;So you see; anything is possible!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;We just necessitate to define the end consequence - Whether it is health, wealth, happiness, or a perfect relationship... anything.  Then be motivated and make a success program to accomplish it, using assorted figure of techniques... really all this is to maintain you motivated and let you see your way more clearly... you should really work difficult to follow through to success.  The end consequences will most likely be positive, even if not in the manner we imagined, but it will be.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The message for today is Visualize your goals, take action and you will succeed.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;~ exercise ~&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Motivation techniques and scheme for success:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;1: Write down on a piece of paper or on your word processor, ONE clearly defined end consequence you desire.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;2: When you have got determined your end in a clearly written form, also using figs as a measurement of success where relevant, then, put a clip framework you anticipate to attain this goal.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Taking you wellness for example: Instead of focusing on the illness, believe about something that this unwellness have been depriving you of achieving, (think of the larger picture) and work towards achieving that.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;3: Now let's state you put a short term end for one month.  We can interrupt down the techniques and schemes of that end into weeks, then days, hours, proceedings and even seconds...  Starting right now.  By doing this, you can easily make short term multiple checkpoints to assist you measurement your success of your techniques and scheme in the long run.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;You should honor yourself at each checkpoint to maintain you motivated to succeed.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Remember the cardinal is to be realistic in your end scene and most of all, confident that your technique will work... just as simple and consecutive forward as mathematics.  1+1+1 = 3 :)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The human race would be a much better topographic point if you and the people around you all experienced interior peace, abundance, joyousness and happiness...  We number on you to assist spreading the word of the fantastic gifts of life.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/458060558823454718-8427332993864395712?l=drowsypoet.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://drowsypoet.blogspot.com/feeds/8427332993864395712/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=458060558823454718&amp;postID=8427332993864395712' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/458060558823454718/posts/default/8427332993864395712'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/458060558823454718/posts/default/8427332993864395712'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://drowsypoet.blogspot.com/2008/09/motivation-techniques-and-strategy-for.html' title='Motivation Techniques And Strategy For Success: Truth About How To Succeed In Life Every Time'/><author><name>Dawson</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06214769896560718181</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-458060558823454718.post-1975424708284451869</id><published>2008-09-03T03:28:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2008-09-03T03:28:44.115-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='spiritual woment'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='midlife and women'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='baby boomer'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='women over 40'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='women in midlife'/><title type='text'>Women In Midlife - Moving From Victimhood To Manifestation During Your Baby Boomer Years As A Woman</title><content type='html'>&lt;div xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'&gt; &lt;p&gt;As we travel through midlife, as Negro Negro spiritual women over 40, we travel in and out of the four phases of spiritual growth.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The phases in summary are:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;·                    Life is being done to me. Things go on and Iodine am not in control.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;·                    I make my ain reality.  Life haps By me&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;·                    Iodine go a channel, an instrument through which God, Spirit, the Universe operates&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;·                    Iodine acknowledge that Supreme Being and I are One.  I get to see all of life as One.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Unfortunately, we often be given to dwell in the first phase although most people I cognize are slow to acknowledge this or even to recognize it.  Especially when we are attempting to reinvent ourselves, it is of import not to allow yourself be trapped in this stage.  We are victim or those who believe something is being done TO them, whenever we utilize the word because.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;BE CAUSE&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;You see, when you believe that something outside of yourself is causing anything, you are missing the basic law of the Universe - the law of attractive force which learns us that everything, and I make average everything in life is a consequence of our consciousness or as physicists name it, our vibration.  Everything that come ups into our life, come ups because we are a vibrational lucifer to it.  Yes, we are that powerful!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;You Have to Surrender&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Of course, no 1 desires to dwell in the victim stage.  But, in order to travel from one phase to another, you have got to give up something.  You have got to give up something.  You have got got to travel through a purification in order to spread out your degree of awareness.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;What makes a victim have to give up in order to take duty for their life?  Victimhood - blame..  Every victim have a incrimination story.  Some are very smart and intelligent so they make thesis on their incrimination story.  And they can joint exactly what happened in their life, when it happened, who did it to them and why they are the manner they are today.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;And unless there's a willingness to give up blame, to come up into the Negro spiritual realisation that the lone thing really there is to incrimination is ignorance - not knowing, a individual can be extremely expert at apprehension why something happened in their life and never be healed.  This is why we set a strong accent on forgiveness and self-forgiveness and releasing animus and bitterness and all of that material because as you already cognize or will come up to know, all forgiveness is self-forgiveness and what's passing through your consciousness - the resentment, the animosity, etc. is effecting your life, your body, your experience, and is not effecting anyone else.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;So all victims have got got to give up incrimination in order to take duty for their lives, in order to get to work on themselves that they may purify their awareness, that they may apparent the glorification of Supreme Being on Earth in human experience.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Where are you still BLAMING?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;SPEND time This hebdomad noticing where you are still BLAMING -- maybe it's the weather, the stars?,  if my ex-husband only;  if my children weren't --   that atrocious machinist - that stupid xyz...&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Whenever you happen yourself ANNOYED - see who you have a inclination to blame?  Dig deep here.  Are you saying it's happening because or are you allowing yourself to be Cause?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Being cause doesn't intend being to blame.  So, ticker those messages that are blaming yourself.  IF lone you were more than organized....  Had done something...  Had not done..  You acquire the picture.  Trust me, it's worth the attempt to begin noticing.  And, we necessitate to continually be reminded.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/458060558823454718-1975424708284451869?l=drowsypoet.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://drowsypoet.blogspot.com/feeds/1975424708284451869/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=458060558823454718&amp;postID=1975424708284451869' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/458060558823454718/posts/default/1975424708284451869'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/458060558823454718/posts/default/1975424708284451869'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://drowsypoet.blogspot.com/2008/09/women-in-midlife-moving-from-victimhood.html' title='Women In Midlife - Moving From Victimhood To Manifestation During Your Baby Boomer Years As A Woman'/><author><name>Dawson</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06214769896560718181</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-458060558823454718.post-4805216876231543431</id><published>2008-05-28T02:17:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2008-05-28T02:17:44.367-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Money'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Jehovah'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='God.'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Drugs'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Jesus'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Alcoholics'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Sexual'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='faith'/><title type='text'>The Hole In Your Soul</title><content type='html'>&lt;div xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'&gt; &lt;p&gt;Faith Fills the Hole in Our Soul&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Hebrews 11:1 KJV &lt;i&gt;Now religion is the matter of things hoped for, the grounds of things not seen (Hebrews 11:1 KJV).&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Read Israelites Chapter 11.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In studying this chapter of Israelites Iodine counted the word religion 24 modern times in this 1 chapter.  Alice Paul exemplifies historical illustrations of how religion worked in the lives of Abel, Enoch, Noah, Abraham, Sara, Isaac, Jacob, Joseph, and Moses.  Religion brought down the walls of Jericho and closed the oral cavities of lions.  Religion in Yahweh Supreme Being can put you free.  Religion can do you whole.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Faith works the same manner today as it did in the years of Daniel&lt;/b&gt;.  Can you conceive of the religion of Shadrach, Meschak and Abednego?  Three Hebrew children who would not worship the King but held tight to their devotedness to Jehovah, were project into a fiery furnace.  They were not burned.  When we pray, we are demonstrating religion that Supreme Being is there and that He hears our prayers.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Faith is the self-assurance of things hoped for&lt;/b&gt;.  Without religion what trust is there?  Hope is the trust that Supreme Being indeed loves us and replies our prayers.  Without hope there is only doubt, fearfulness and despondency.  See those who are lost and outside of God's protection.  It is a dingy consideration.  They are hopeless.  They may set their trust and hope in others or in money but a hope placed in these tin only convey letdown and grief.  Work Force may let down and desert you, but Supreme Being never will.  He is always there.  When we necessitate Him He transports us when we can't even walk.  Sometimes, the things of this life are overwhelming.  Without hope, religion and trust in Him, how could we possibly hope?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Faith is the cognition that life on Earth is not all there is&lt;/b&gt;.  Religion is in knowing that beyond this life we have got life ageless with God.  I cognize people who believe that this life is all there is, that when we die, that is just the end.  How sad it would be to travel through mundane thought that all we had to trust for is nothing.  As Christians we have got religion that one twenty-four hours we will be in Heaven and stay with Him.  Jesus Of Nazareth is the lone manner to heaven.  Bash not be deceived.  There is one and only one manner to Heaven and it is through Jesus Of Nazareth Christ.  Toilet 3:16 is all you have got to cognize to be saved&lt;i&gt;.  For&lt;/i&gt; &lt;i&gt;God so loved the world, that He gave His lone Son, and whosoever BELIEVES in Him shall not perish but have got got ageless life.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In this life on Earth we have two choices.  We can believe and be saved or we can reject Jesus Of Nazareth and travel to hell.  It is that simple.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;To have got religion there must be belief&lt;/b&gt;.  (DUH!!)J Unbelievers have got no hope.  Religion is so simple.  Supreme Being made His Gospel so simple that even small children can understand it.  It makes not take great mind to understand that Supreme Being made us.  He loves us and He desires to have got a human relationship with us.  Some people have got got tried so difficult to confute God's word that they have taken away their ain hope.  The have got tried to ground too much about this simple story.  By picking apart the Word of Supreme Being they have got made it hard.  The encephalon that Supreme Being gave them have gotten in the manner of being able to believe.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Humility and religion travel manus in hand&lt;/b&gt;.  There are modern times when disbelievers believe they have got got it all figured out and they experience that they have out smarted God.  This is a major lurching block for them to believe.  It blinds them to the simple religion that bases on balls all understanding.  We as world are not meant to cognize everything.  If Supreme Being wanted us to cognize everything now He would have got told us in His Word.  What He did state us is He loved us so much that He sent His lone Son to decease for us.  No 1 can confute this no substance how difficult they try.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;All human beingnesses have got a large hole in their soul&lt;/b&gt;.  People seek to fill up this hole with many things.  Money, prestige, fame, fortune, drugs, alcohol, sexual activity but they will always come up up empty.  The hole will still be there.  The lone thing that tantrums in the hole is Supreme Being and his love for us.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Faith fill ups up the hole and do us whole&lt;/b&gt;.  Trying to fill up this hole in our psyche with anything but Supreme Being is like trying to set a square nail down into a unit of ammunition hole.  Nothing will suit and nil will fill up the hole except for the powerfulness and love of God.  He created us with the hole in our soul.  He created us to only be completely at peace when we fill up the hole with His love.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;What we cognize as Christians is we have got the religion that one great twenty-four hours every knee joint shall bow, every lingua confess that Jesus Of Nazareth Jesus is Lord.  Now there is something you can set your religion in.  There is the hope that fill ups the hole in the soul.

But are we truly ever taught to be grateful?  Bash we truly understand what it intends to demo gratitude?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"Thank you" makes not cut it; a phrase made up of two words that often modern times just goes the thing to say.  Being filled with gratitude is a true look of how you dwell your life as a consequence of being given something and not taking it for granted.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This could cover many things, but in this lawsuit I am talking specifically about your life.  Are you truly filled with a thankful energy in sees to the life that Supreme Being have got set in your chest, make you even care about it, have you ever even muttered a word of thanks to your creator?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Bottom line is this; there is nil above Supreme Being or the Lord, nothing.  They sit down at the ceiling of the heavens, there is nil higher.  Once we understand that they command everything in our lives, we then can truly live.  Everything else on this earth, without them being above all in your life, intends nothing.  Your business, your money, your home, your family, your cars, etc, average absolutely nothing, all just a façade, Associate in Nursing illusion; your life will be an illusion!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Once you get to dwell your life in a manner that shows Supreme Being and the Godhead that you are thankful for what they have got given you, YOUR LIFE, only then will you understand that nil else matters.  You will then understand that life is not about what other people have got or what you don't; the houses, the cars, money, or so called expressions that are appealing to society.  Big deal, are all of those stuff things declarative of a human relationship with the Creator?  Absolutely not!  None of what travels on in anyone else's life matters.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;There is not one ownership that tin make anything for or against you, they are not relevant.  Harangue about things that make not substance will kill you, if you cannot see this for yourself, Supreme Being will demo you, and he makes not care what it takes to convey you to your knee joints to recognize that HE is above all.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;God and the Godhead will convey us to what ever they choose, to make us recognize why we are here in the first place; to demo them gratitude for all they have got got done for us and that they are the lone 1s who can make anything for us, nil else gives us life!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Go deep and believe about being grateful, and when you truly grip the beauty of this life, don't just give thanks your maker, unrecorded your life to demo him that HE is above all, and I have no uncertainties my friends, that your life with HIM will allow you bask what really matters; your life with HIM!&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/458060558823454718-5315537093259678566?l=drowsypoet.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://drowsypoet.blogspot.com/feeds/5315537093259678566/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=458060558823454718&amp;postID=5315537093259678566' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/458060558823454718/posts/default/5315537093259678566'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/458060558823454718/posts/default/5315537093259678566'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://drowsypoet.blogspot.com/2008/05/living-with-gratitude.html' title='Living With Gratitude'/><author><name>Dawson</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06214769896560718181</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-458060558823454718.post-4536661782158851980</id><published>2008-04-09T06:39:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2008-04-09T06:39:13.004-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='process'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='seed'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='development'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='germination'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='life'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='success'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='foundation'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='solid'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='root'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='builders'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='system'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='tree'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='failure'/><title type='text'>A Solid Foundation - Nothings Seems to be Happening</title><content type='html'>&lt;div xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'&gt; &lt;p&gt;I was watching a new lodging development the other twenty-four hours and noticed how the detergent builders were excavation to put the foundation.  As I watched, the idea occurred to me that logically you would believe that if you necessitate to travel up, then you should be able to begin in an upward direction.  But not so for edifice any construction that is expected to last.  To construct a permanent structure, you will begin in the antonym way going downward.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This is the same for a seed.  When a seed is planted, it first travels into the land and then when it gets to grow, it turns downward.  The root system or the foundation of the hereafter works or tree is laid first and then it sprouts upwards.  If a works makes not have got a good root system, it can be uprooted very easily.  So the cardinal to stableness is a solid root system.  It is a solid foundation.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;So what can we larn from these facts of life?  Anything that we anticipate to last a long clip in life is going to take some clip and attempt to develop.  To be more than specific, there are going to be modern times in the beginning when it looks like you are going backwards.  (Remember the seed or the detergent builders first starting in the antonym direction).  There is a clip of evident dormancy, when it may look that the procedure have failed from the beginning.  However, there is the sprouting period.  This is where something great gets to springtime forth from something very small, and it begins with a time period of dormancy.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The solid foundation necessitates this process.  This is also where many people fail.  This time period causes defeat and many give up because of the evident failure.  How often have got you started something and you discontinue because you did not see any contiguous results?  What is taking a piece to demo forth looks like failure.  However, if you will understand how a simple seed grows, you will be able to recognize what is failure and what is just portion of the process.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Without this process, your foundation will not be solid.  Remember that nightlong success be givens to melt away by the morning.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/458060558823454718-4536661782158851980?l=drowsypoet.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://drowsypoet.blogspot.com/feeds/4536661782158851980/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=458060558823454718&amp;postID=4536661782158851980' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/458060558823454718/posts/default/4536661782158851980'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/458060558823454718/posts/default/4536661782158851980'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://drowsypoet.blogspot.com/2008/04/solid-foundation-nothings-seems-to-be.html' title='A Solid Foundation - Nothings Seems to be Happening'/><author><name>Dawson</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06214769896560718181</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-458060558823454718.post-5377831193151891764</id><published>2008-04-04T10:39:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2008-04-04T10:39:27.118-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='spring cleaning'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='soul searching'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='soul work'/><title type='text'>Spring Cleaning for the Soul</title><content type='html'>&lt;div xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'&gt; &lt;p&gt;One twenty-four hours you open up your presence door and are greeted by the marks of spring.

One can not cognize about his birth rule with ground because his birth is mystical.  In Bhagavata Gita he says, ' janama karma cha me divyam...' his birth is Godhead and Godhead can not be grasped with doctrine of mind.  So we should go forth this argument and seek to understand his Godhead nature through religion and devotedness since dialectics of faith-devotion lights 1s interior beingness and set ups one to have got his Godhead vision.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;All the Gods and gurus of human race faiths are impotent only Krishna is perfect because in him all the Godhead qualities manifested completely.  This is the ground he is said to be 'Yogeshvara'.  He cognizes all the Yoga word forms perfectly.  He declares in his discourse of Gita that he is not only Yogeshvara but "of this human race I am the father, mother, nourisher, (and the) expansive father; I myself am the knowable, the sanctifier, the syllable Om as also Rk, Sama and Yajus".  He is the guru because he bids his two natured (Prakriti) the stuff cause of the existence.  Being Vishnu he through his Yoga Mayan makes all this three fold up natured existence.  In this linguistic context we should distinguish him from Patanjali's definition of Ishvara because Patanjali's Ishvara is just ego realized man.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;He cognizes the enigmas of being but can not be a creator.  He can cognize the rules sustaining existence but he can not make those principles.  Even he is different than a Brahmavit (knower of Brahman) of Vedanta of Sankara because in Sankara's doctrine too apprehender of Brahmin though said to go Brahmin yet can not be a creator.  The point made by Ramanuja regarding the nature of Brahmin and ego realized psyche in his Sri Bhasya is profound in this regard.  Person psyche can not be execute ishvara's Acts since psyche can not cognize him completely as Sankara himself said regarding Sakti ' saiva tvam vetti parmam tsya nanyosti vedita' than how one can cognize the Godhead of Yogamaya.  About Vishnu's Yogmaya apprehenders said it anirvachya (indescribable) therefore by this logic He too is indescribable.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;An individual psyche by following the way prescribed in Bibles cognizes some of his enigmas but can not comprehend his all glories.  Gita chapter 10 poetry fifteen-sixteen says, "O supreme person, the Godhead of beings, the Godhead of beings, the God of gods, the Godhead of  the worlds, by yourself you cognize yourself in your existent nature since those manifestations through which you be by pervading these human races are divine." Godhead himself says, "I stay sustaining this whole creative activity by a portion (of myself)' similar to this there is also a poetry in Purusha Shukta of Rigveda which renders thus 'all life things are a ft (a quarter) of his.  His immortal three feet are in the bright human race (in their ego effulgence).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Thus what is the public utility of knowing him who is everything?  The great muni Narada too could not cognize him though he is enjoying his company in eternity.  In Puranas there are mentions that when ever Narada had a construct of knowing Him he taught him by shattering all his 'knowing' merely illusory.  Being Godhead of existence he plays by letting you cognize his nature, his Leela.  All this drama that is going on is his Leela, his play.  All these manifestations are his drama that he carries through his Yoga that is why knowing his Yoga 1 goes endowed with Yoga ( etam vibhutim yogam cha Mam yo vetti tatvatah....).  Krishna is only complete embodiment on this Earth who taught world the perfect way of not only ego realisation but how to move in harmoniousness with universe so far both tin acquire benefit from each other.  Discourse on action and spiritualism in Bhagavata Gita is full of mystery.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Through readings applying ground 1 can not pull out significances of the sutras taught in Gita because Gita was taught when Krishna was in deep Samadhi.  He never said in the affaire d'honneur state of head that he is Krishna and Vasudeva (the Brahman) is different than him from where he is getting power.  Jesus Of Nazareth in his whole life could never state that he is Truth himself he always lived in dichotomy of father-son.  Even, when ever he did any miracle he said that it happened because of his father.  He had never had any experience of Integrity as such as if he had experience of it; it was occasional not permanent.  He never taught those ultimate metaphysical truths what Krishna have taught.  Krishna never said that there is any father other than him.  He said, "I am the beginning of all; everything return from me. Realizing thus, the wise ones, imbued with love, adore me." This sort of truth was never said by any Negro spiritual instructor of any faith because they were not realized psyches in Vedantic sense of the word.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;When Iodine state Krishna is only guru available to world who is perfect and whose instructions are perfect I am talking from this angle only that is from the absolute point of view.  Only in Krishna's personality we happen apogee of everything perfect whether it is love, friendship, war, political relation or teachings.  His every feat was perfect and universal.  As a Guru what he taught in Bhagavat Gita to Arjuna knowing which he fought the great warfare of Mahabharatam is alone and have to be propagated in this human race of corruptness and selfishness.  Only a adult male endowed with Yoga of action can struggle the immoralities that are by and big against the Sanatana Dharma established by Godhead himself.  About them Godhead himself said, " not knowing my supreme nature as the Godhead of all beings, foolish people neglect me....of conceited hope, of conceited action, of conceited knowledge, and senseless, they go verily possessed of the bewildering temperament of friends and demons."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Vasudeva Krishna have got promised us to descend on this Earth when wicked predominates and always he have fulfilled his promises so allow us set up his way by cultivating Yoga of action.  Yoga of action demands that action should be performed for Godhead therefore we should begin performing work abandoning selfish motifs for constitution of his glorious dharma.  He is in our bosom always as a guiding principle; this lone because we are selfish and devoid of religion he is not telling the truth to us.  Even we are so selfish that we don't acknowledge him seated in our very soul.  Whenever military units of pandemonium predominate this human race he takes birth to salvage world from decline.  But before his coming- A batch of saints, teachers, intellectuals, concern people, artists, leadership come up and set up the environment for his descend.  This Aryavrata the state of saints and Gods had been attacked respective modern times but could not loss its glorification though aggressors vanished.  Now in this age of philistinism 1s again we are being attacked, we must stand up up against them.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;These wicked military units since they don't belong to us and to our culture, are trying to disintegrate us.  They are attacking our culture, our very societal values since they don't have got any societal values and are suffering because of this.  We must not let them to deconstruct our tradition that transports highest values for society and family.  Their modernity, post-modernity etc are political propaganda theories to enslave humanity; we must oppose all this in the favour of our Sanatana Dharma that have Godhead beginning and in which God lives.  Christian Religion died in the manus of Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche because it had no tradition as such as what it had was Musa's 10 ethical laws but we have got Vedas that have Godhead beginning and we carried the wisdom of this glorious Bible for centuries; we evolved it, through our life experiences we gave it life.  No modern-day societal theory can supply what we people have got created for illustration the four Ashrama system.  It have come up out from our experiences we learned that life span is little hence must be utilized in such as a manner that nil misses.  So we have got four ashrams system followers which people accomplished all the four achievements ARTHA, DHARMA, KAMA, AND MOKSHA.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In western doctrine life exhaust fumeses in between two ends Artha and Kama . Everything goes around around money and sexual activity because of this what happened they loss all hopes in life in their early age.  Because they don't have got containment and peace they desire to destruct others so they propagate sexual activity and warfare as indispensable to peace.  They make civilization to carry through Kama and Artha, it have no intent in life so it have go industry.  Even their civilization is so worst that it goes a tool for warfare; a propaganda machine.  But see, we have got created civilization in which people celebrate; for us civilization is celebration.  We believe in jubilation not mourning, we believe in love not war, we believe in household not in prostitution, we believe in higher rules of life not in the theories of power.  We are always against those who are against life principles.  Rama the Purusottama killed Ravana (thinker-king the incarnation of evil) for constitution of societal values; those very values that are still our core values.  He taught a lesson to world that in the name of sexual satisfaction (sexual satisfaction is not a job of everyone societal but of some those who seek only sense gratification) societal values can not be devalued.  He killed Bali against the ethical motive of warfare to set up the societal value that in absence of little blood blood brother older brother anyhow whether by military unit or by attractive force can not do sexual relation because if it haps the full societal norms will discontinue to exist.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Krishna is cosmopolitan Guru because what he taught is universal.  He is only one who states that as long as Kama is used for virtuousness not for vice, as long as Kama is not against Dharma it is divine.  Describing his Godhead manifestations he says, "dharmaviruddho kamosmi bharatarsabhah" I am that kama, O!  Arjuna, that is not against virtuousness but that which takes us towards the realisation of higher truths of life.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/458060558823454718-6262593814886897715?l=drowsypoet.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://drowsypoet.blogspot.com/feeds/6262593814886897715/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=458060558823454718&amp;postID=6262593814886897715' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/458060558823454718/posts/default/6262593814886897715'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/458060558823454718/posts/default/6262593814886897715'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://drowsypoet.blogspot.com/2008/03/krishna-universal-guru.html' title='Krishna the Universal Guru'/><author><name>Dawson</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06214769896560718181</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-458060558823454718.post-1604167462679114230</id><published>2008-02-28T15:56:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2008-02-28T15:56:40.929-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='coaching'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='success'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='self esteem'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='motivation'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Immigrants'/><title type='text'>7 Barriers to Immigrants Success And How to Overcome Them</title><content type='html'>&lt;div xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;1.  Negative people or dreaming killers.  &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;A negative individual is anyone who makes uncertainty and fearfulness in you and pours cold H2O on your dreamings with the purpose of bringing your programs to a grinding halt.  They are people who have got resigned themselves to life unrealized lives and whose negative comments, toxic mental attitudes or actions are designed to do loss of assurance either in yourself or in your abilities-if you let it!  Sharing your dreamings with the incorrect individual can be self-destructive for your dream.  State adieu to, naysayers, detractors, critics, enemies, badgerers or disbelievers and state hullo to people who inspire, support, foster and convey out the best in you.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;2.  Denial-being stuck in the past.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Regardless of who you were before you migrated to a new place, don't dwell in denial any longer than you must.  Your past successful life will always be a valuable portion of who you are...no 1 can take that away from you.  However, the new world may intend that you can no longer be the successful, lawyer, doctor, accountant, chief executive officer or professional you once were.  Accept alteration and be ready to change and adapt!  Spending your years talking about who you used to be or home in the glorification of your past successes will forestall you from applying yourself fully and creating a successful meaningful life.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;3.  Not knowing who you are and what you desire to do.  &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;At some point in your life you must reply the questions, "Who am I?" "What make I really desire to make with my life?" "What fulfills me?" "What is my function and intent on earth?" These inquiries are probably the most of import inquiries that you will ever reply because they put the foundation for your fate and find the course of study of your future.  They assist you acquire focused on what counts most and addition lucidity about the adjacent measure to take.  Based on them, you can avoid irrelevant, side tracking, clip wasting, and emotionally draining activities On the other hand, when you don't cognize who you are and what you want...you settle down for anything!.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;4.  Low self-esteem and a victim mentality.  &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;You experience bad about yourself, criticise yourself, expression down upon yourself, justice yourself harshly and are not proud of who you are.  These negative feelings take to a sense of insignificance, apathy and hopelessness.  Further, when you let obstacles, your insecurities or a "woe is me" outlook to rob you of the pleasance of achieving your goals-you take to fail.  The fact that you are an immigrant doesn't do you a nobody.  You are somebody!  You count and you have got an of import part to do to the world.  There are infinite inspiring narratives of people who have got defeat all likelihood and achieved their dreams.  If you take duty for your life and destiny...you too can go that story.  Value yourself because no substance where you are from or how you look or sound like-you tin still be different and unstoppable!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;5.  Succumbing to the voice of your interior critic.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Usually, there are two dialogs going on in your mind.  One is the voice of authorization that promotes you, "c'mon, you can make it, you are trained and qualified to make this, you are naturally talented to make this or this is what you have got always wanted to do," and the other is the interior critic's voice that twits and instills fear in you.  It whispers, "you can't make it, you will fail, you won't be accepted, you are different or you are not good enough" and so forth.  These at odds voices travel on and on and draw you in different directions.  It's almost like a conflict between good and evil.  Which voice are you listening to?  Which voice is winning?  To succeed, you must suppress your interior critic and win.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;6.  Talking large and not walking the talk.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If all you are doing is talking about your ideas, assemblage information, reading, researching, attending seminars, and hearing to what everyone else is saying and not applying all that learning and cognition to do your life happen...you are preparing to fail.  If you have got got got worthwhile ends and you have not implemented them in a existent and tangible way, you necessitate to hesitate for a minute and inquire yourself, "What is going on with me?" "What's holding me back?" "What am I afraid of?" If all your friends cognize about your large programs but have never seen any encouraging evidence; it's probably clip to begin walking the talk!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;7.  Not asking for help!&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;When you desire to acquire things done and are stuck because you don't cognize what to make next...ask for help.  Invest in yourself.  Get support from a trained coach, expert, wise man or a friend who cognizes what they are doing and can assist you come up up with a program to accomplish success.  Seek aid from people who are already succeeding and making something out of their lives or who can throw you answerable for getting back on path and staying there!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Remember that by your action or deficiency of action...you are making programs for something!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Overcome your barriers and allow the grounds of what you want, talk for itself!&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/458060558823454718-1604167462679114230?l=drowsypoet.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://drowsypoet.blogspot.com/feeds/1604167462679114230/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=458060558823454718&amp;postID=1604167462679114230' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/458060558823454718/posts/default/1604167462679114230'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/458060558823454718/posts/default/1604167462679114230'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://drowsypoet.blogspot.com/2008/02/7-barriers-to-immigrants-success-and.html' title='7 Barriers to Immigrants Success And How to Overcome Them'/><author><name>Dawson</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06214769896560718181</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-458060558823454718.post-331189142368805414</id><published>2008-02-25T10:47:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2008-02-25T10:47:29.601-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='cure your midlife crisis'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='mid life crisis'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='reinvent yourself'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='self help'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='midlife crisis'/><title type='text'>How to Reinvent Yourself like Madonna to Cure Your Midlife Crisis</title><content type='html'>&lt;div xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'&gt; &lt;p&gt;We've all heard of or known people who have got ditched their successful careers, given up the stableness of the life they've created and switched gearing to travel in a new way and go something or person else.  It's not easy nor is it safe, but it's a manner acquire back on path and prosecute our unrealized dreamings and potential.  Sometimes it's a contemplation of how we've changed and what we now desire or need.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;We have got all reinvented ourselves in some capacity at some point in our lives.  Sometimes it's a conscious, calculated pick we make, like pursuing a dream.  Other modern times the reinvention is a merchandise of necessity, when we are forced to change by external factors, like becoming a wellness professional for an ageing parent, the victim of a law-breaking or are we happen ourselves in a health crisis.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Most of the time, people reinvent themselves because of their circumstances, devising the reinvention a "must." When we're contemplating making a displacement to prosecute a end or dream, we often categorize it as a "should." But shouldn't we sort our ends and dreamings as "musts?" The reply is absolutely, positively YES!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Successful people are already using this strategy.  We all have got got the capableness to have success if we take to use the reinvention tool by choice.  Whether we like Mary or not, her successful music calling is not her only foreground in life.  Madonna's unparalleled ability to reinvent herself over the last three decennaries topographic points her in "a conference of her own."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Madonna was keenly aware of the necessity to maintain current with music industry tendencies based on the rapidly changing demographics for dad culture.  Even as Mary enjoyed her phenomenal successes in music, she took unpopular hazards as she navigated new reinvention ventures; actor, record producer, movie producer, manner designer, author, director, wife, female parent and philanthropist.  Not bad for a dancer, singer, songwriter, guitar player and percussionist.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Think about how quickly we reinvent ourselves during a crisis.  We barely have got clip to believe about it, allow alone choose.  It's done.  All other substances are no longer important.  Imagine that you're going about your life, showing up at work, taking attention of the children and the house and then WHAM, calamity strikes.  All of sudden your human race is literally turned upside down and your reinvention consumes your life.  You give up to your new role.  You re-prioritize your life based on the external event.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Choosing our ain reinvention doesn't charge per unit very high for most people.

It restricts us to accomplish success and travel for what we want.  Fear of losing money and pridefulness bounds us some people to begin a business.  Fear of losing chance to have got human relationship with person bounds some people to acquire someone's telephone number.  Fear of losing pridefulness might restrict gross sales people to open up their oral cavity and start introducing.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Fear of loss is everyone's limitation.  It's nothing personal because successful people also fearfulness to lose, but they maestro something well adequate that fear of loss will not halt them to accomplish success and acquire what they want.  They all maestro Generosity!  You can get the hang the fine art of generousness with:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;1.  &lt;/b&gt;&lt;b&gt;Being Generous with grasp to others&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Most people don't appreciate others.  When person did something good for them, they take it for granted.  When person did something bad, they rebuke them as if they did it on purpose.  Start to appreciate everyone, everywhere and every moment.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;When you wake up, appreciate person who do breakfast for you.  It doesn't have got to be wife.  It could be a peddler or server who functions breakfast to you.  If you made breakfast for yourself, appreciate yourself.  Appreciate person who sold you newspaper, delay for you in the lift, unfastened the door for you, you delegate you task, who have undertaking from you, etc. You never deficiency of appreciation, so make it everywhere.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;2.  &lt;/b&gt;&lt;b&gt;Being Generous with your resources&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;When you begin being generous in appreciating others, you will acquire to recognize that you have got limitless grasp you can give.  Now, make something different.  Start to be generous with what you have got (your resources).  It might be time, effort, ideas, knowledge, listening or experience.  You might begin to have got fearfulness of having lesser resources.  But, here's the miracle:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;You resources didn't acquire lesser.  You acquire to have a batch from others.

You have got more than clip now.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;3.  &lt;/b&gt;&lt;b&gt;Being Generous with what you fear&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;When the 2nd measure is practiced often by you, you have got no fearfulness with this measure anymore.  If fearfulness of losing money, give away money generously without expecting return.  Donate it, wage people who gave you other service or purchase particular gifts to people around you.  When you begin to be generous with money, you will recognize money is coming in generously too.  You will not fear of losing money anymore.  If you fear of losing pride, make something stupid with your friends or family.  They will express joy but it never aches you anymore.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;When you are generous, you miss nil and will never fear of losing something.

We all do.  Some phone call it self-talk.  Others mention to it as just thinking things through.  Still others see it as making a decision.  Certainly at modern times when that ego talking acquires a small more than dramatic, the strength in the encephalon rises.  I believe you cognize what I mean.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Now for some people, it is a startling conception that the encephalon is supposed to function us, not the other manner around.  In other words, we can and should take what we desire to think, and when we desire to believe about it.  This may sound a spot foreign to some people, since today fantasizing and daydreaming are almost national pastimes.  But, by your free will, you can take what you desire to believe about and what you don't desire to believe about.  This agency that when a idea protrudes up in your caput you can take to allow it stay, or find to kick it out.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The ground that Supreme Being gave us the free volition to take is because not every idea we believe is going to be profitable or healthy for us.  There are numerous things that we could believe about that would absolutely not function us well at all, and would in fact be very damaging to us if we allowed those ideas to seaport and incubate in our minds.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;We dwell in houses that have got windows and doors.  The ground for the windows and doors is not to maintain us in, but to maintain things that we don't desire outside the house from coming in!  In utilizing our doors and windows properly, we can command what come ups in our home.  Plenty of things out there might even be detrimental and even dangerous!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Likewise, we necessitate to take complaint and control what we let to our encephalons to dwell on.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Taking complaint over your ain head is a batch like preparation a puppy.  You state the dog, "Sit."  And then you work with the domestic domestic domestic dog until he larns to "sit." If you don't develop the dog, he just runs around and makes whatever he wants!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sadly, a batch of people either don't know, or just decline to command their ain minds.  Many have got what I name a "Chihuahua mind!"  It's wish a small domestic dog running all over the topographic point all the time.  Others have got a "tired old dog" mind.  They just sit down there, almost unmindful to every thing going on around them.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Take complaint of your ain mind!  Talk up!  State your head what you're going to believe about, and what you are not going to believe about.  "No, mind, I am not going to believe about those negatives, instead I have got decided to believe about how exciting life is and how Supreme Being have promised to bless and provide."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"Hold it right there, brain, I don't desire to believe about all the deficiency in my life.  I desire to believe about God's promises of prosperity."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;And just like a small puppy, you necessitate to prevail when your head starts to swan off.  "Hey, mind!  Get back here.  Stop thought about that, and start thought about this."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Now I am aware of many methods and techniques for staying in control of your ain mind.  I love the domestic dog preparation analogy because I believe most people can readily relate.  Whatever method and style you utilize is your business; the point is, you really can take complaint and control your ain mind.  It is so critical for your life's failure or success.  People win or neglect because of the ideas that they take to works and nurture.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;What you take to concentrate on is the way that you will indicate your life toward.  The ground so many people travel around in circles in life, is because their ideas are going around in circles in their minds!  Their heads are engaged in wandering, daydreaming and fanaticizing; they never remain focused long adequate to let what they truly desire to come up into their lives.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;What you consciously put your head on is what you will apparent - good or bad, successful or unsuccessful.  The Book says, "As he believes in his bosom so is he."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;So, why not take charge?  Decide what you desire in life and where you desire to go, and take complaint of your mind!  State your head that this is where you are going and this is what you are going to believe about.  Then make your head "sit."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Once you acquire that head of yours to "sit" where you desire it to sit, don't allow it swan off!  If you have got decided to believe and focusing on God's promises, then that is where you desire your head to "sit."  When it begins to swan off, thinking about the deficiency in your life, consistently convey it back and state it, "stay".&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Again, it is just like preparation a puppy.  It's easy most of the clip to acquire the domestic dog to sit.  But it takes a small more than attempt to acquire him to remain there.  So too it is with our minds.  We can easily switch and believe about something, but to remain focused on it, takes a small more than persistence.  But, the consequences are well deserving the effort.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Take complaint of your life by taking complaint of your thinking.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/458060558823454718-289876553548055597?l=drowsypoet.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://drowsypoet.blogspot.com/feeds/289876553548055597/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=458060558823454718&amp;postID=289876553548055597' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/458060558823454718/posts/default/289876553548055597'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/458060558823454718/posts/default/289876553548055597'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://drowsypoet.blogspot.com/2008/01/take-charge.html' title='Take Charge!'/><author><name>Dawson</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06214769896560718181</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-458060558823454718.post-1563968182103311784</id><published>2007-12-23T20:24:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2007-12-23T20:24:58.173-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='denzel'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='campus'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='author'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='month'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='win'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='oprah'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='race'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='university'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='college'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='debate'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='great debaters'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='war'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='black'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='history'/><title type='text'>The Great Debaters - Oprah &amp; Denzel Bring Black History to the College Campus &amp; University</title><content type='html'>&lt;div xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'&gt; &lt;p&gt;"Debate is armed combat but your arms are words." A memorable quotation mark from The Great Debaters produced by Oprah Winfrey's Marx Productions and directed by Academy Award winning histrion Denzel Washington.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"You must destruct your opposition - not only verbally, but physically." So said controversial argument manager Melvin Tolson at Wiley College in East Lone-Star State nearly three-quarters of a century ago.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"I'm here to assist you happen and maintain your righteous mind." Professor Tolson told his argument team, which only lost one competition in 75 arguments over 15 years.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Wiley College, the first accredited historically Black college West of the Mississippi, achieved the impossible in 1935 by manner of its argument team, which disquieted esteemed squads at the University of Southern Golden State and Harvard University University.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Undoubtedly intelligence have far more than to make with finding and readying than tegument color.  The movie The Debaters uncovers true strength doesn't necessitate force when it can exert powerful influence with cognition and joint dear expression.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;As Black History Calendar Month attacks we must honestly acknowledge African Americans have got always led the manner and been at the tip of the lance to Pierce through wicked and injustice.  Without Africans arising to face injustice, there would be no human or civil rights in America.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In this hr more than ever, African Americans must struggle for people of every colour who are being exploited and disenfranchized.  The voice of African Americans must be heard throughout our land once again to face injustice!  We can never correct, what we decline to confront.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Professor Tolson, whom the film The Great Debaters was made after, an complete poet and provocateur, passionately and with fire in his eyes prophetically lifted up his voice to talk to his generation.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Our state is in demand again, not only of inspiration but confrontation from leadership.  The profiteers in authorities have got chosen instead to function corporation state rather than we the people.  Therefore we the people, the courageous and bold, must originate and be a voice of scruples to redefine and repossess the personal identity of America.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;No longer can we the people be duped by loyal rhetoric and flag waving politicians who neglect our national security and unnecessarily direct our military personnel into injuries manner to struggle imperial warfares with people who we cognize nil about and have got done us no injury whatsoever.  No longer can we as a state demonize other peoples and states while calling ourselves good and godly.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Such self-righteousness is hellish and quickly heading toward a twenty-four hours of calculation with the planetary community and international economy.  Consequently both United States and its currency are quickly losing international act upon and credibility.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;May Supreme Being Godhead enlarge our voice over that of the transnational mass media pudding stones that seek to influence and control the heads of Americans.  By the way, what is America?  What values make we stand up for, or have got we forgotten them altogether preferring triumph and to 'win the war' - whatever that means.  There are no victors in war, only also-rans and abusers.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;We must again have got a national argument challenging anyone and everyone across the University and college campuses of United States to an unfastened forum, town hallway discussion, and intellectual conversation to debate the polar issues paving the manner to our national devastation or reformation.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Not only is the U.S. dollar at an all-time low, so too is America's international credibility.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Americans like to be flattered and boasting in their nationalism, but what we necessitate most is to be challenged.  If United States makes not go self-aware and brutally honorable with herself, her inclination to dwell in her past glorification will be her end.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Personal psyche searching and national policy rating is what we as a state most need.  When public sentiment is in differ with public policy, we the people must not be silent.  The great debaters, orators, and writers have got historically always pierced through the darkness to convey light and light to open up the eyes of humanity.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Indeed in keeping with the words of The Great Debaters: "The clip for justness is always correct now!"&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Keep crying loud and sparing not until righteousness flowings like a mighty watercourse and justness is served!&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/458060558823454718-1563968182103311784?l=drowsypoet.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://drowsypoet.blogspot.com/feeds/1563968182103311784/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=458060558823454718&amp;postID=1563968182103311784' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/458060558823454718/posts/default/1563968182103311784'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/458060558823454718/posts/default/1563968182103311784'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://drowsypoet.blogspot.com/2007/12/great-debaters-oprah-denzel-bring-black.html' title='The Great Debaters - Oprah &amp;amp; Denzel Bring Black History to the College Campus &amp;amp; University'/><author><name>Dawson</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06214769896560718181</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-458060558823454718.post-9166959905060471963</id><published>2007-12-11T18:23:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2007-12-11T18:23:17.631-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='marathon'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='overcoming obstacles'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='setbacks'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='health'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='inspiration'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='fear'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='diabetes'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='running'/><title type='text'>What's Your Marathon? Passing the Test</title><content type='html'>&lt;div xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'&gt; &lt;p&gt;I was trade name new to running, living with diabetes and preparation for my first marathon.  As my first diagnostic test run, I entered a 5K race called, "Run for the Cure," in support of breast malignant neoplastic disease research.  It was the first of respective obstructions I encountered, long before I even started the marathon.  Here's what helped:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Facing Fears&lt;/b&gt; - The nighttime before the 5K race, my ideas were racing with concerns about what to make in the morning, what I should eat, and what other people were going to believe when they saw me at the run.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;You see, I didn't suit my ain mental image of what a smuggler looks like, and I fully expected that as soon as I walked up to the start line, everyone would halt talking, point, gaze and laugh.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;My imaginativeness was running wild.  Even with my good support system and so much clip and attempt set into silencing interior and outer critics and edifice up my belief, those fearfulnesses were as existent as ever.  I wanted to conceal out and phone call it off.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I knew I had to confront them and challenge them; that I wouldn't be able to make and construct impulse from a foundation of fear.  I had to acquire the belief back.  So I showed up for the race.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;When I did, I saw smugglers all forms and sizes, and more than importantly I saw the marks people carried about the grounds they were running.  I looked around and realized they probably had similar fearfulnesses and thoughts, and the fact that we were all facing them together helped me a lot.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;We can't allow fearfulness halt us from starting.  If we make we've allow it overcome us.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Clearing Hurdles&lt;/b&gt; - With any end you have, in any country of life, you'll confront obstacles.  It's important to believe ahead and come up up with schemes to defeat then.  And just as of import is what we make with the obstructions we didn't predict.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Early on in my training, my greatest obstructions were the sensitive musculuses and pain.  It reminded me of my first clip on the water ice to play field hockey after the summertime break.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Managing my diabetes and blood refined refined sugar degrees was another obstruction - I had blood sugar clangs and spikes and reconciliation my diet was a changeless challenge.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;But the greatest obstruction of all came just two calendar months before I was scheduled to run the endurance contest in Rome.  I was playing field hockey and I dislocated my shoulder.  The hurting was incredible - I knew right away that my original clip framework was no longer possible.  I wasn't allowed to run for 10 weeks.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I didn't allow it halt me; I did what I could to maintain up my training, by riding the motorcycle and walking.  I accepted the state of affairs and just saw it as a postponement.  As soon as I could, I started running again.  With the solid foundation of preparation I'd had, it wasn't like starting again.  I put my sights on the George Vancouver marathon, just 10 hebdomads away.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Reset&lt;/b&gt; - Running was really painful with that dislocated shoulder, and so I needed to refocus and acquire connected to why I was doing the endurance contest in the first place.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;It's wish that after any setback.  Take eating, for example.  You can do some unhealthy picks but then refocus and acquire right back on track.  We all have got our small slumps, from athletics hard roes to every twenty-four hours folks.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I used to work in a restaurant, where each waiter was responsible for 8 or 9 tables.  We might have got three sets of people at each tabular array per night, and each tabular array would be a completely different experience.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In between sittings, we had to make clean the tabular array and reset it for the adjacent group.  No substance how good or bad each sitting was, they left and we would reset for a new experience.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;After my injury, reverse in my preparation agenda and lacking the Roma marathon, I had to refocus on my end and "reset the table." Life offers a series of tests, obstructions and challenges.  How will you ran into them?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;(c) Ted Shawn Shepheard, 2007.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/458060558823454718-9166959905060471963?l=drowsypoet.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://drowsypoet.blogspot.com/feeds/9166959905060471963/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=458060558823454718&amp;postID=9166959905060471963' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/458060558823454718/posts/default/9166959905060471963'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/458060558823454718/posts/default/9166959905060471963'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://drowsypoet.blogspot.com/2007/12/what-your-marathon-passing-test.html' title='What&amp;#39;s Your Marathon?

I cannot maintain such as a secret to myself...  I have got the duty to feed the crowd that is hungry and demands bread.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I'm proving three basic truths to the world:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;1.  The human beingness is basically a demon, since the greatest portion of one's psychical domain belongs to the wild conscience, which is violent and wicked and one's relatively little human scruples is idiotic, since it works based only on one completely developed psychological mathematical function and the unreasonable egotism that Pbs the scruples to the maze of daftness with its unreasonable desires.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;2.  The unconscious that bring forths the dreamings is directed by God, who really bes and is really as angelic as presented by all religions.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The wise nature of the unconscious is perfect and we can swear it completely.  The wise unconscious constantly seeks to salvage the human side of our scruples from the invasion of the wild anti-conscience that is demoniac and desires to destruct it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If we obey to the ways we have in dreamings not only can we forestall and remedy depression, daftness and self-destructive inclinations but we can also go geniuses.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The unconscious attempts to develop all our psychological functions, since three of them are dysfunctional because they belong to the wild side.  They must be transformed, so that they go a portion of the human side and assist us judge the human race and our states of affairs much better.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;3.  The ignorant and wicked person beingness must obey God's directions, given by the unconscious through dreams, so that world may be saved from panic and desperation and larn how to dwell peacefully and happily on Earth.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Therefore, Iodine am not so special: the wise unconscious revealed everything to me. I only had to analyze the books that I came across, to follow the counsel from my dreams, to be a good pupil and to be patient.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I am only a dreaming translator-the existent physician is the wise unconscious.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This is why I can vouch your cure.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The existent physician is the 1 who cognizes everything about you; it is not me, the ignorant human being who translates the wise dreaming messages.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This is why I desire to learn you how to construe your dreamings by yourself, instead of billboard this secret.  You can have got the same privilege: you can larn everything I cognize and pass on with the unconscious.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This is the breadstuff of ageless life!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;At the same time, this is the end of craziness, panic and force on Earth.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/458060558823454718-8668169281213059391?l=drowsypoet.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://drowsypoet.blogspot.com/feeds/8668169281213059391/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=458060558823454718&amp;postID=8668169281213059391' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/458060558823454718/posts/default/8668169281213059391'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/458060558823454718/posts/default/8668169281213059391'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://drowsypoet.blogspot.com/2007/11/obvious-truth-revelation.html' title='The Obvious Truth - Revelation'/><author><name>Dawson</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06214769896560718181</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-458060558823454718.post-7403006980911129209</id><published>2007-07-31T12:19:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2007-07-31T12:19:40.948-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Personal'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Educational'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Inspirational'/><title type='text'>3663</title><content type='html'>&lt;div xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'&gt; &lt;p&gt;A big motortruck with 3663 emblazoned across the side can be seen regularly in Nairn.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Look at the Numbers on your telephone set and they spell the word 'food'.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;These immense figs attracted my attending a few hebdomads ago.

But what Supreme Being makes in your life have an ageless dimension.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Having been called by Supreme Being at an earlier age, this quite dramatic Negro spiritual experience happened much later, but it was nil new.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Fifty old age after Jesus Of Nazareth Of Nazareth Jesus rose from the dead he baptised his waiting adherents with the Holy Place Place Spirit, and it lasted with them.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The first adherents were called by Jesus, and anointed with the Holy Spirit three years on.

Bash not fear for Supreme Being is near, nearer than you may realize.  Let there be no more than uncertainty about this.  For I have got spoken to you down through the ages, through your great 1s who translated my ideas into words and placed them in books.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Your Book is one such as idea as were many of your ancestors' classical writings, back when I was moved to animate the great 1s of your race.  Bash not despair, my delicate ones, for I have got come up to you here to present fantastic news.  You are indeed Whole.  You are indeed Free.  You are indeed Holy.  Take these ideas into your bosom and cognize that this is true.  For I have got spoken, and I talk only the truth.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;There was a time, not so long ago, when you could not hear my words at all; when you thought that all there was to life was survival.  You ran with the animals then, unconscious, unaware of My Presence in your circumstances.  You were frightened, lost and scared.  Many of you experience that manner today – frightened, lost and frightened once again.  Your systems of authorities neglect you, your men of science allow you down.  No 1 looks to have got replies of any substance.  Wars are engaged in for no evident reason, to fend off some "potential" threat.  You delve into alcoholic beverage and drugs for relief.  You minimize yourselves.  You dwell in a state of quiet despair, all the piece forsaking that which could truly put you free – your Self, your Innermost Being – that portion of you that links you to all of life and, to Me, from where you derive your primary sustenance.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I have got not betrayed you.  I have got not deserted you.  You have got lost and abandoned your Selves.  This have been your error, my dear ones, for I, the Supreme Being of Love, would never abandon His seed.  I dwell in each and every 1 of you.  Some of you can hear Me, most cannot.  Some of you can experience Me, most make not.  It is you who have got misplaced Me and not the other manner around.  I am the truest and most consistent experience in your life.  Throughout your history I have got been there, breathing into each and every 1 of you, guiding you and proclaiming your true nature.  Sometimes one of you heard Me and told the others, only to have got this forgotten again soon after.  Throughout history I have got had to remind you of your true nature and My Presence in it.  Here I am once again, making that very same point and hoping that this clip you'll remember.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Would you like to hear the narrative of the Fall?  I will share it with you once again.  In the beginning there was a void, a huge unknowing, a deficiency of form.  The Supreme Being of Love, Who I am, wanted to make an experience of "knowing," an experience of "appreciation," where you, my creations, could recognize yourselves and see yourselves evolve.  The inspiration came to do a beingness in My alikeness who would reflect my top qualities, give those word form and make them accessible.  And there you were born my particular ones, by Godhead decree.  By My word you were brought to life.  You were spirit then and only spirit.  You had no word form as you cognize it today, only essence.  But that kernel was magnificent, enough to do Me very proud.  You became fruitful and multiplied because that is a feature with which you were endowed.  You created each other then, replenishing and furthering the Godhead flicker through one another.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This initial procedure continued for some clip until one twenty-four hours some of you decided that you wanted more than power, to make and refill yourselves.  And so it was granted.  The powerfulness to make and reduplicate yourselves was passed over to you exclusively, to utilize wisely I hoped, but to utilize freely nevertheless.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;My top gift to you was your freedom.  I put you free to make as you would.  And you did so honour Me.  Then came a clip when some of you came forth and demanded more than power, the powerfulness to command others, the powerfulness to pull strings and to deceive.  There was no idea on my portion to widen this to you, but you took it anyway.  Your freedom, already granted, justly permitted it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I was distraught of course, but could only detect since you were free to move as you would.  I watched you perpetrate assorted horrors on each other, all in the name of experimentation.  I watched you judge and penalize each other in the name of the Good and the Holy.  You continued in this mode for a time, unaware of how you were hurting each other and, therefore, your Selves.  Then I decided to do "form" from "essence" to travel the experimentation out of the nothingness and widen it into the visible, where Negro spiritual kernel could be manifest.  In your world, that word form is human.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This humanity is just a distraction, a plaything if you wish, for you to see and experience your lessons with each other.  At some point this essence, which had go form, forgot itself and its origins.  All the piece the program carried on as you exercised on each other your assorted experimentations and lessons.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;And these are still going on today.  Your callousness, your uses and assorted atrociousnesses go on to be perpetrated on each other in the name of learning.  But in your custody this procedure have always been about power, for those of you who desire more than and those who desire less.  Your appetency for powerfulness have fueled your greed and the desire to be greater than that which created you.  This is at the root of your failure to germinate beyond your Earthly circumstances.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;That, my dear ones, is the Narrative of the Fall.  You were great, you were beautiful and you were expansive in all manner.  But in your haste to conquer, or avoid being conquered, you lost your Selves.  No substance what you believed you had won, in seeking powerfulness over each other, you had in fact lost.  There is never anything to be gained by conquering another because you are all the "same."  You are all equal, equal to Me in fact and we are all One.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;What intent have all this experimentation served?  To learn you about bounds and boundaries, about healthy interaction, about truth and love, about sharing and justness – all your great human precepts, which so many of you go against and handle with disdain.  So where makes that leave of absence you now?  On the threshold of destruction?  Perhaps.  On the threshold of discovery?  Perhaps also.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I am here reminding you Who you are, Who you Really are.  And you are all much more than than you realize.  Your experimentation with powerfulness have failed.  There is no greater powerfulness than the Self and Its Godhead inheritance.  There is no greater truth than that which I offer.  There is no greater wages than what takes you back to your Core, your Self, your ain True Nature, and your Godhead right To Be.  I plead with you, my dear ones, to awaken to this truth.  You are Godhead and you are Eternal.  You are of the Ageless Light.  Bash not lead on yourselves by believing otherwise.  There is no other truth.  There is no other reality.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I am the Truth.  I am the Way.  I am the Path.  Find your Selves now.  That is your fate and that is your freedom.  Choose peace and love and they will take you back to your Core.  You must go aware that you are no better than anyone else and no worse.  You are what you are, which I, and only I, created in the beginning.  No 1 come ups to Heaven but through Me.  Go forth and seed yourselves with Love and Truth again.  Brand yourselves Whole and you will see the Kingdom of Heaven turn before you.  Trust this and nil else.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Go forth in Peace and Love&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/458060558823454718-8276933158952805660?l=drowsypoet.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://drowsypoet.blogspot.com/feeds/8276933158952805660/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=458060558823454718&amp;postID=8276933158952805660' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/458060558823454718/posts/default/8276933158952805660'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/458060558823454718/posts/default/8276933158952805660'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://drowsypoet.blogspot.com/2007/07/message-from-divine-pulse.html' title='Message From The Divine Pulse'/><author><name>Dawson</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06214769896560718181</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-458060558823454718.post-8004006013403610721</id><published>2007-07-03T09:53:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2007-07-03T09:53:04.133-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='happiness'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='divine right'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='abundance'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='self esteem'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Universal source'/><title type='text'>YOUR Declaration of Independence</title><content type='html'>&lt;div xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;On the Fourth of July, Independence Day in the U.S.&lt;/b&gt;, we celebrate the acceptance of the &lt;i&gt;Declaration of Independence&lt;/i&gt;, the formal declaration adopted by representatives of the Thirteen Colonies in North America announcing their separation from Great United Kingdom and making them the United States.

Bash Iodine see the limitless copiousness of the Universe in the stars, considered a symbol of the celestial sphere and the Godhead end to which adult male have aspired from time immemorial, and the stripes, symbolical of the beams of visible light emanating from the Sun?  (actual symbolism of the U.S. flag) Make I open up my head to have my share of this huge copiousness and allow myself to be warmed and nurtured by the Godhead light?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Or make I restrict my conception of freedom to an extra twenty-four hours off from work and hot dogs?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Something to consider.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/458060558823454718-8004006013403610721?l=drowsypoet.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://drowsypoet.blogspot.com/feeds/8004006013403610721/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=458060558823454718&amp;postID=8004006013403610721' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/458060558823454718/posts/default/8004006013403610721'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/458060558823454718/posts/default/8004006013403610721'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://drowsypoet.blogspot.com/2007/07/your-declaration-of-independence.html' title='YOUR Declaration of Independence'/><author><name>Dawson</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06214769896560718181</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-458060558823454718.post-6480566638033021841</id><published>2007-06-21T09:09:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2007-06-21T09:09:01.245-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='trust'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Jesus'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='hope'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='faith'/><title type='text'>On a Day Just Like Today</title><content type='html'>&lt;div xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'&gt;&lt;p&gt;On the Central Coast of California, the marine layer is drifting towards land like it always does this time of year.  On the East Coast, it is heating up and preparation for hurricane season is beginning just like every other year.  Oklahomans are dodging tornados and the war in Iraq is still in full swing just as it has been for a few years.  Life goes on and Jesus still hasn't returned.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Today I did what I did yesterday.  I got up, just like every other day and prepared for work.  I drank my coffee, ate my breakfast, jumped in the truck and away I went, just like every other day.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This evening I am watching TV and writing just as I did yesterday and Jesus still has not arrived.  I wonder when He will come again.  I don't spend a lot of time thinking about His return but I know He is coming and I believe He will come on a day just like today.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;He told us two would be plowing a field, one would be taken, and the other left.  Somewhat just, like today.  Two will be driving down the road when one will be taken and the other left behind.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;He told us He would come like a thief in the night.  I guess the thing about thieves is you never know when they are coming.  The thing about Jesus return is we will never know when He is coming but He is coming.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;We have been told that Jesus would come again and I simply believe He will come on a just like today.  The real question isn't whether He is coming nor is it when is He coming.  The real question is are you ready?  One day when we, you and I least expect His return He will come to take His kids home.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If you are not ready, don't you think it might be time to consider this Jesus?  Every man and woman on the face of this earth has to come to terms about what they believe about Jesus.  You might want to take a little time and consider the man Jesus.  Believe He is coming again on a day just like today.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/458060558823454718-6480566638033021841?l=drowsypoet.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://drowsypoet.blogspot.com/feeds/6480566638033021841/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=458060558823454718&amp;postID=6480566638033021841' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/458060558823454718/posts/default/6480566638033021841'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/458060558823454718/posts/default/6480566638033021841'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://drowsypoet.blogspot.com/2007/06/on-day-just-like-today.html' title='On a Day Just Like Today'/><author><name>Dawson</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06214769896560718181</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
