My mother is an atheist. She does not openly admit it, but she has admitted it to me. Despite her atheism, she insisted that all of us children go to church. She came from a Roman Catholic family, my father came from a Roman Catholic family, and they were married in a Roman Catholic Church. As befitting her, she ignored her own deep instincts and feelings, and did what she thought was the “proper” thing to do. She raised us as Roman Catholics, but at the same time she never once set foot inside the church herself. Each Sunday, she would make sure that we were dressed in our finest, give each of us three pennies to put in the collection plate then send us on our way. Although my father drove us to church, he only attended on the most sacred of holidays. Many years later it dawned on me that those two hours each Sunday—one hour of Sunday School and one hour of church services—were the only two hours of the week my parents spent alone together without kids around……….Continue reading
“To be blessed, one must bless.” I don’t know if anyone has ever said that before but if they haven’t…..well, I just said it. It’s an ancient concept that at least some people have known about for millenia. Why bless? Because it’s a great way to create your own reality. It’s not the only way, but it’s a really cool way…….Continue reading

Every single time we think a thought, that thought flows over the neurons in our noggin and it is electrically zapped and in this process it is given life. Every single thought we think is like a child we create, birth, and give life to. Just like the physical human children we create, every thought has free will. As soon as we give life to a thought by thinking it, it no longer belongs to us. It is an independent creation with free will that we no longer have any control over. Having been given life, that thought then goes out into the infinite field of infinite possibilities in hopes of magnetizing the possibilities that will allow that thought/creation to……..Continue reading

Anonymous asks: “Deepak Chopra says, ‘If you want to flow, let go.’ So just what the heck is this flow anyway? Why do we want to get into it? What’s so great about it?”
It can be related to playing a video game so let us use that metaphor. There is you playing the game but inside the game you have to create a personality to go through the game. That personality is called a human. It can also be called an avatar……Continue reading

Watch the news on TV or read it on the internet or open a newspaper or magazine and you are sure to see something about the pernicious unemployment crisis that has America and much of the world in a vice-like grip. Monthly the unemployment numbers are announced. They may go up or down a fraction of a point but they do not seem to change much. It has been estimated by some that close to one in five Americans are either unemployed or underemployed. For a nation of people who have been conditioned since birth to believe that work is one of the greatest virtues, this unemployment crisis is profoundly shattering to the nation’s psyche…….Continue reading

I think it may be the only thing that can. If we can see the incredible wondrous beauty in the world then we are filled with joy rather than with a need to change the world. If we focus on the crap then that need to change things rises within us. I agree that the planet does not need to transform but I also feel that it will simply because that is its nature. Change is a constant. If we are focused on directing that change then we are obviously not focused on the beauty and perfection that is so prevalent in the NOW moment……Continue reading
The Storm Before the Calm: Book 1 in the Conversations with Humanity Series, by Neale Donald Walsch. Something happened in early 2011 that hasn’t happened in decades, perhaps centuries—and we didn’t even notice it. That is, we didn’t see it for what it was. Massive unrest from Tunisia to Egypt to Libya rocked the Arab world and threw the globe into political crisis. Within days, an earthquake-tsunami-nuclear calamity of terrifying proportions shocked Japan and sent the world reeling once again, even as the globe’s financial markets shuddered to sustain themselves while states and nations tottered on the brink of bankruptcy—where many still linger.
All of this, of course, we did notice. What we may have missed was that ancient predictions for this period of time called for exactly this: simultaneous environmental, political, and financial disasters. Were we seeing the beginning of “the end of history”—and not picking up the signal?
In his prescient new book The Storm Before The Calm, seven-time New York Times best-selling author Neale Donald Walsch offers a startling answer: yes. But Walsch also says there is nothing to fear, advancing an extraordinary explanation for what is happening even now all over the planet. Then—and more important—he provides a stunning prescription for healing our lives and our world through the answering of seven simple questions, inviting people everywhere to join in an earth-saving exchange at TheGlobalConversation.com. Compelling and perfectly timed, The Storm Before The Calm answers every question that is worth asking about December, 2012 and beyond.
With an early interest in religion and a deeply felt connection to spirituality, Neale Donald Walsch spent the majority of his life thriving professionally, yet searching for spiritual meaning before beginning his now-famous Conversation with God series. These books have been translated into 37 languages, touching millions and inspiring important changes in people’s day-to-day lives. Seven of his 27 books have reached the New York Times bestsellers list.

“Does one create one’s own reality from the moment of birth? Is there an age of accountability when one begins creating one’s own reality?”
The way I see it is that one begins creating one’s reality from BEFORE birth. One of the biggest arguments against YCYOR (and hence for victimology) is babies. Babies are poor innocent helpless creatures. How can they be creating their own reality? Well, they are. They are not doing it from a conscious intellectual point because their intellect is not yet developed but each of us choose our parents and families and the spectrum of possibilities presented within that dynamic. We choose that before we enter into a body. From the infinite field of possibilities we choose a spectrum of possibilities that has the most likelihood of offering the specific environment for what we want to experience during our childhood. Why would we choose a childhood that occurs in the middle of war or famine or abuse? If that is what we choose, we choose it because that presents the opportunity to explore and deal with specific issues we want to deal with in our evolutionary trajectory. If the dynamics of abuse is something we need or want to understand then we are not going to gain understanding of it if we are born into a situation where there is no abuse. If war is something we want to understand and move beyond we would not get that opportunity if we are born into a peaceful situation. Most people who want to make a major advancement in their spiritual evolution will choose childhoods that are extremely challenging. Every child who chooses a challenging childhood chooses it for a specific spiritual reason……Continue reading

I would say that a “good true relationship” is one grounded in and based on unconditional love. We might react to each other from mental and emotional levels outside of unconditional love but, being based and grounded in unconditional love, we can be aware of that and not let those mental and emotional reactions overcome our basis in unconditional love. We do not lose sight of that unconditional love. When one in the relationship stays grounded in unconditional love and sees the other slip into emotional and mental reactions they do not let themselves slip into it either and are thus able to keep the relationship anchored in unconditional love. The tables may turn and the next time it is the other who stays anchored in unconditional love. A “good and true relationship” is therefore one that……Continue reading

I am slowly coming to the realization that nothing can accomplish this. It cannot be done. After all, we are all one, right? We are all connected whether we like it or not. We cannot cut and separate one-ness—though we have been trying to for umpteen million years. It just cannot be done. What we can disengage from and release, however, is our reactions to these connections. The connections to all other humans is there and we cannot change that but we can change how we engage those connections. In this regard we have plenty of choice…..Read on

Unconditional love is the secret. And you do not have to pay for it. It is the real bona fide secret. It is how we raise our vibration. It is how we ascend. It is how we save our sorry asses. It is how we evolve. It is how we transmute our reality. It is the answer to every freaking question in the universe……..Continue reading
Septembermania. Isn’t that a funny word? I think I just made it up, although it sounds familiar.

Shop now and get the best prices of the year!” Or something like that……..Continue reading
