Here and now...back in my home, and can't sleep due to jet lag.
It's only my third day back and already I'm missing my minimalist life in Barbados where everything is small and manageable.
Here I have too much furniture, too many pictures, too much clutter, and none of it means much any longer.
Getting older means a fuller house.
I now wish I had that brick fire place of Purple Lama's so I can burn all the junk.
You might consider a "garage sale". We have one every spring, with the aim of eventually reducing our possessions to just what's necessary.
Thanks for the suggestion. Where I live it's more complicated than that.
This is the third world...and more so...the Outback. Think Jurassic Park with high speed Internet.
Nobody has cash here even for a garage sale.
Very, very poor people all around. So it's give, give, give, or wait to have it stolen.
I have just stuffed a sack full of clothes..
to be given to a key family in the village who will happily pick through it and then distribute the rest.
If I were to live in the US or Canada I would do a garage sale in a flash.
But I have a lot of art, real water colors, oils, no prints, unless signed limited edition stuff.
Also books, including a 1973 Funk and Wagnall leather-bound encyclopedia which could only be useful as a prop to make an antique library more attractive.
They sell them by the yard, at max $80 for all 23 volumes. Maybe could sell them if I lived in the US.
Selling something like that from Costa Rica means the shipping would cost more than I can afford or am willing to pay.
Firewood it is.
Ah, I see.
There's been several times in my life where I have literally just given everything away, but it seems that more just comes back, unbidden.
Btw, I once contemplated moving to Costa Rica, but settled instead for the Sierra Nevadas. In any case, perhaps there is a museum in San Jose that would accept donations?
Now we are talking.
But on second thoughts, no!
Don't like myself being too cynical, but I have been here for over 20 years and doubt if anything will ever make it to a display in a museum.
The person who receives my donation is more likely to sneak it home and then post on Craigslist what they don't want.
Something I am now considering doing myself.
Like
GARAGE SALE IN JURASSIC PARK.
This coming Sunday come and have lunch or a picnic in the beautiful sacred valley of Orosi...
and see my collection of English and Caribbean bric-a-brack.
Hmm....Now the next hurdle...get my husband to agree.

The German government started an initiative called "Dialogue about Germany". Basically the citizens are encouraged to bring forward suggestions about how to improve things. The suggestions get thumbs up online and the initiators of the 10 most popular suggestions will be invited to a meeting with Mr. Merkel in September. Deadline for the vote is April 15th.
A group called
"We are the People" submitted the idea, to move the topic of free energy more into the focus of mainstream science etc.
You neither have to be a German citizen nor register somewhere to give a thumbs up, so please go to
this page, scroll down and give a thumbs up.
Thanks Christian. Have done my thing to free, free energy :)
Was reading some of the comments. Saw this:
Diese Technologie wird sich durchsetzen, unabhängig davon, was Sie, Frau Merkel bzw. das Energie- Kartell zu tun gedenken. Sie, Frau Merkel können allerdings deutlich zu erkennen geben, dass Sie es mit der Umsetzung des Volkswagen ernst meinen.
Liebe Grüße
Gerhard Schröder
am 10.04.2012 um 14:10 Uhr von Gerhard Schröder (Gast) kommentiert
Roughly translated:
This technology will prevail, irrespective of what you, Mrs Merkel, or the Energy Cabal wish to do about it. You, Mrs Merkel could however if you really mean it, take people's will seriously.
If it IS indeed him, kudos! If its a pseudonym, good on him too
Send healing to Callliope ♥
and rest for Ulli
and Jorr....... just LOL ;)
Re: Here and Now...What's Happening?
Seems like we have winter early this year
Our weather is certainly very odd
No such thing as seasons anymore
Just potluck
We even have snow already in some
parts . I don't mind the contrast that
comes with the changing seasons but
being thrown from one extreme to
the other is off balancing
Even the animals are unimpressed
Re: Here and Now...What's Happening?
For 1inMany.
Last week I was in Montpellier (France). I visited the University of Medicine founded in 1220. Michel de Notredam (Nostradamus) studied there. I was surprised as I was reading "Conversations with Nostradamus" by Dolores Cannon. In the rector's office was a small statue of Nostradamus.
Somehow, this tour has sparked me to reassess the Tarot.
So, i read a message from 1inMany today and reopened the book by my Teacher http://image.casadellibro.com/libros...8492092109.jpg

Re: Here and Now...What's Happening?
Amma hugged me 3 times. The wait was worth it. A strong energy injection. For 5 minutes I was floating, I was crying, laughing.
Has anyone been with Amma?

So it didn't last?
At least when you come to this thread you can get energy 24/7.
All you have to do is ask.

Here is a special energy injection from the Hugging Leopard. I can raise the stones when I want to.
You are the second person today who failed to inform the Village of health problems.
Big hug to you and Carmody, as well as Astrid's chicken Lucy and PurpleLama's Caliope.
Re: Here and Now...What's Happening?
The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0068361/)
Luis Buñuel, the Master of Surrealism. I always laugh with this scene.
Bunuel says "life is a theater." Notice when Fernando Rey makes its way-through the two women just before shooting. He opens the curtains of the theater.
And finally, ha, ha ... who the hell is going to a party with a gun in his pants. Marvellous!

Has anyone been with Amma?
Many times, from '98 through 2003. She has a place in San Ramon, CA. I moved to the Bay Area from the East Coast in 2000, and ended up working about 10 minutes from her ashram. I'd wander over during my lunch break and soak up the vibes, and when she was there I'd hang out as much as time allowed. Eventually, I came to realize that I didn't need to go there, as pleasant as the visits were, since she had established her presence in my heart. Then I came to understand that wasn't even true, that there was no two-ness, nor had there ever been. This is a bit hard to explain. It is beyond intimacy. There is only one being, turning in place, amazed at the splendor of its own embrace!

Yes and no...not on the walls, anyway. But since my laptop is always open and I have several black panthers on the desk top, the answer is yes.
Why did you ask?
Husband put a picture of the Virgin de Guadalupe.

I like how you describe the process. At first it must come from without, before realization sets in
and then one can discover/see/feel that it was all along within.

How very lucky, and thank you for the clip.
I agree about the knowing its within. We forget.
As Amma says, sometimes we just need gentle nudges to know what was there all the time.
Not only our physical being, but or soul seeks love, peace and compassion.
Constant gardening, constant craving
((hugs)) to you
