Em got a puppy, named her Lily. Here she is with Isis, first day they met. They seem to get along so far. And it is fun to watch them play.
I'm feeling disconnected. Quite alone actually. This transformation is kicking my ass.
Divorce in progress. Me leading the way, in something I would not have chosen. My friend is correct, it is like choosing my own switch for my beating. What seems to make it more difficult than it should be, or could be, is that Mike won't let go...of anything...of his own volition.
At this point in schooling Em at home, I feel a bit of regret for taking this on. In order to do this properly, I would need to sit with her every day as she goes through the program. And the problem is that I don't.
M is here for a few days, and it scares me to death to think she will be moving back out here soon. M and Em get along like oil and water. With boxing gloves. Actually, the boxing gloves would soften the blows.
K is planning to come out for a bit this weekend. She has not told Mike she is pregnant, and I don't blame her. His reactions to things are not the most constructive or positive. Quite the opposite.
It looks like Little One will get to stay overnight tomorrow, the first time in five months if I remember this correctly. I am looking forward to this, but when I saw him last weekend briefly there was such sadness behind his smile. That will be difficult.
I go through periods where I miss being on meds, and this is one. Adderall kept me focused on one task long enough to complete it and feel a sense of accomplishment. Also gave me a bit of energy so I wouldn't lay in bed all day. Effexor kept my mood from being in the toilet 24/7, I remember humming a lot. And Xanax kept my stomach from being in knots.
Now, I know meds are not the way to go. So I don't make an appointment. I don't. But I see the draw there. Is it not easy and enticing to pop a pill and feel better? Damned pharma.
On some level, I realize that each tie that is severed gets me closer to where I will be. Each thing I "lose"...each relationship that seems to have gone to ****...has been a necessary clearing out. But holy ****, it is painful to lose those. I almost look forward to what is coming, what will replace those, until the reality (which is only here, temporary, and not really reality) hits me...the new replacement parts have not arrived. The check is in the mail.
All of this...this is my here and now. I do not wish to draw emotional responses. I do not wish to spread around this negativity, if that is what it is. So I will clean up on my way back out.

With much compassion to every One, realizing this journey can be difficult, and with Much Love,

Just one day without being on the computer and it feels like that I have a missed a ton of new information (I'm an info junkie!)... So is the world already ending? Just kidding, of course.
The winter has been extremely bleak this year (good for me) and the spring seems to be almost here, way too early. Yesterday the sun was shining mildly after weeks and weeks of grey and rainy weather... Today the weather is again grainy, it seems to always reflect to my mood. Or maybe it's vice versa. Well, I'm starting to feel somewhat alive again because I love sunshine and the spring... Also it looks like that I am finally starting to get my health in order, thank God for that.

While standing in the middle of a fire, probably the last thing someone would want to hear is that their anguished cries were poetry - and I know that - but maybe later you can look back on this observation of your communication style (rather than me thinking about its content right now): I have to tell you that this is very powerful writing. Poetic prose.

Today we started out by walking to the nearby Holetown Police Station, to get me a driver's license ...a hand written document that costs only $10 Barbados which is $5 US, and found that the licensing office was now in the town of Speightstown, which is a half hour bus journey towards the north of the island. After that we would get a ride by my relative to the insurance company office, and once we have an insurance cover form all that is left to do is purchasing the road tax, a sticker that goes in the window, and also getting a mechanic to check that the car is roadworthy.
By buying a tiny Suzuki Alto second hand which remains in the drive way of my relative when I not here I can still save
money, as taxis and hired cars all work out incredibly expensive.
The bus ride was fun, I must say, and walking the streets of Speightstown I made a note to return and take pictures to show how different countries still are on this planet.
As we walked we passed three hens clustering together in the middle of the sidewalk, surrounded by four strutting cockerels and it looked like a fight might be imminent. Didn't have my camera with me. LOL. What a picture that would have been.
Anyway, here is one I took later in the afternoon when we were on our way home, after getting the road license.

Dennis, even if I don't ask for advice, yours is always welcome and appreciated, love. And I will tell you, I was not trying to be poetic, but the fact that you saw or heard poetic prose made me feel really good. And I think I am making a trip into town today to pick up some St. John's Wort.
And dan the eagle man, I am quite interested in Bacopa and will be trying that as well. Thank you for that suggestion, I had never heard of it before.
Dtravis, thank you for the offer, I appreciate it very much.
I don't share just to hear myself talk, haha, although it may appear that way...who knows. I would say, or I would guess, that I am undergoing an intense process of spiritual transformation, whether I recognize it as such in the moment or not. Many people will undergo such, it is the only way. So to them, I say: I hear you. It's heavy, but morning comes. Literally. And since morning comes, literally, in 3D, I would posit that morning is just ahead spiritually as well. By spiritually I mean morning will come and the darkness will lift in all other aspects of life, those we experience with the five senses and those we experience outside the five senses. It is quite difficult to maintain this focus when one ray shines through the clouds and then quickly disappears once again. And I (obviously) lose that moment regularly. I am grateful there are those of you who reach out, in ways I know and in ways I cannot, to remind me. Such huge changes are occurring, and while in the middle or in the center of these changes it is easy to get lost. Whatever one can do to hang on to the one ray of sunlight, I say do it.
So this weekend, as people are coming and going and bringing their chaos through my home, and likely challenging my ability to remain strong and hopeful and in my center, I will (at the very least) have a special candle burning. Somewhere not obvious, where I won't have to answer the questions about it...but somewhere that I will see it and it will remind me that I have a spark, a flame, in my center, in my core. Just like that candle. It is who I am. I Am. I may even draw an anchor and put it on the frig door so when I walk by I remember to hold tight.
Blessings to All on this day, and Peace.

From his biography.
Now that he was living in a normal neighborhood home with a wife and soon a child, he had to make some concessions to necessity. But it was hard. They got beds, dressers, and a music system for the living room, but items like sofas took longer. “We spoke about furniture in theory for eight years,” recalled Powell. “We spent a lot of time asking ourselves, ‘What is the purpose of a sofa?’” Buying appliances was also
Steve Jobs by Walter Isaacson 363
a philosophical task, not just an impulse purchase. A few years later, Jobs described to Wired the process that went into getting a new washing machine: It turns out that the Americans make washers and dryers all wrong. The Europeans make them much better—but they take twice as long to do clothes! It turns out that they wash them with about a quarter as much water and your clothes end up with a lot less detergent on them. Most important, they don’t trash your clothes. They use a lot less soap, a lot less water, but they come out much cleaner, much softer, and they last a lot longer. We spent some time in our family talking about what’s the trade-off we want to make. We ended up talking a lot about design, but also about the values of our family. Did we care most about getting our wash done in an hour versus an hour and a half? Or did we care most about our clothes feeling really soft and lasting longer? Did we care about using a quarter of the water? We spent about two weeks talking about this every night at the dinner table. They ended up getting a Miele washer and dryer, made in Germany. “I got more thrill out of them than I have out of any piece of high tech in years,” Jobs said.

Miele washers and dryers are always a good idea. You feel good each time you use them. As if you've done something right, or at least the Buddhist maxim 'do no harm' somehow being moved toward, in the way of doing as little harm as possible.
As I really began to understand what is going on, things like detergent, or simple 'dish soap' began to deeply offend me, every time I have to use them.
I also do not understand sofas, not having one. I have one in an upstairs bedroom, it is being used to hold various bits off the floor, and it can be turned into a bed. It has no arms, it just opens up. I like it as it is long enough to lie down on.
The only thing I think a sofa/couch is good for, is to get mid afternoon OBE's when trying to nap.
For that one reason alone, I would tolerate a 'sofa'.

Without it's opposite, we would never know the meaning of joy, or comfort, ease, or love. It would be an infinite grey nothing. Color and difference is the only that that makes life 'be'. If the universe is consciousness (even the physicists speak of 'information', not 'energy'), and there is every reason to think that this is it's origin and existence.... then the price we pay for growth, is to experience greater extremes of color. To deal with the ego is to not lose who you are, but to deal with the negatives with less and less attachment. To learn to ease the bumps and drive toward the highs clearly, ie under control. But even that has it's drawbacks..as the better we get at it the more we move back to a infinite simplistic unchanging grey nothingness.
Horror of horrors....that the greatest intelligence, the greatest reach, greatest moments of being, the greatest moments of all attainable love and existence can only be found .... in the most wicked and extreme of mixes.
I went to yotoob to watch above video and on the same page was this one, always a goodie. same year, in fact, 1979:
zg-ivWxy5KE
I can't remember who the Buddhist master was, but one of his more interesting comments was about his fear of dying without having his ego burned down before he left.
To be stretched to the breaking point, just before dissolution....and to find life in the process of building anew, or larger, or better, or greater.... in this new space.
I'm never more alive and free...... than when I'm torn. In those moments, anything is possible.

We are young, heartache to heartache we stand
No promises, no demands
Love Is A Battlefield
We are strong, no one can tell us we're wrong
Searchin' our hearts for so long, both of us knowing
Love Is A Battlefield
You're beggin' me to go, you're makin' me stay
Why do you hurt me so bad?
It would help me to know
Do I stand in your way, or am I the best thing you've had?
Believe me, believe me, I can't tell you why
But I'm trapped by your love, and I'm chained to your side
We are young, heartache to heartache we stand
No promises, no demands
Love Is A Battlefield
We are strong, no one can tell us we're wrong
Searchin' our hearts for so long, both of us knowing
Love Is A Battlefield
We're losing control
Will you turn me away or touch me deep inside?
And before this gets old, will it still feel the same?
There's no way this will die
But if we get much closer, I could lose control
And if your heart surrenders, you'll need me to hold
We are young, heartache to heartache we stand
No promises, no demands
Love Is A Battlefield
We are strong, no one can tell us we're wrong
Searchin' our hearts for so long, both of us knowing
Love Is A Battlefield
We are young, heartache to heartache we stand
No promises, no demands
Love Is A Battlefield
We are strong, no one can tell us we're wrong

Who told you guys my dishwasher was bust? Probably some cheap part needs changing but people seem to disagree as to which one. I know someone who might have a use for it and ought to be able to fix it. Otherwise, as with everything, getting it repaired makes no economic sense. Also we have very hard water and something is likely to be scaling up anyway. I'll have a look at the Miele.

Not been having so ridiculously much time lately because the “event” we had been waiting for finally arrived. That is, altogether 8 healthy baby goats, otherwise known as kids. Luckily 6 of them are girls, and of course I have fallen in love with all of them. Oh Dear! I named the one buckling I’m keeping Bob Dean. And I made one hell of a good trade with the other buckling for another yearling buck who has a great pedigree and is unrelated to any of my girls. No one I know, with the exception of folks here, have any idea who Bob Dean is. Thought this was the perfect place to share a pic of him.

I must admit, I have a very weird sense of humour. I sometimes wonder if people get it? I probably should use more smilies. Sometimes I tend to like it dark, unlike my coffee... Which I'll have with soy milk (it's not GMO, but I should not use soy due to forest massacres) and sugar, but I also have a love & hate relationship with it. On the other hand it makes me very energetic and I think that I need it because normally due to my ailments I am very tired. Then again it also sometimes makes me "hyper" and my brain and nervous system start to do backflips in a row... It's not really nice always because normally my brain perceives information and the world already in a very overloaded way. So what I mean to say by this is that perhaps I should switch to tea, but then again coffee has always been my cup of tea. I don't like being addicted to anything, but I am admit to coffee and chocolate. I'm sorry, I'm just rambling again while being caffeinated!

Oh, yeah! Doing the happy dance!
Not only did I survive this chaotic weekend, I had a blast! Sure it was tough, and there were moments that would have once doubled me over. But not this time, and I'm so happy.
Puppy, kitty, all three daughters, soon-to-be-ex-husband, and grandson...all in one weekend. That is one potential stress after another, one potential drama after another.
I admit it, I'm quite exhausted. But I am not frazzled beyond belief, I am not upset, I am not worried, and I do not have a huge mess to clean up (despite the fact that just an hour ago Little One had every toy we own out on the floor).
I'm sure this success had something to do with the work I did in preparation. I smudged, blessed, filled, called on the higher ups, and fired up three kinds of protection. I also lit that special candle in the corner. Then I trusted. Not one unwanted thing came in. Nope.
Maybe...maybe this is the new me? Look out, because I also bought some St. John's Wort yesterday :) Pretty soon, I may be humming so loud y'all will hear me all over the place...

How could not one appreciate the eternal beauty and glory of nature? Some awe inspiring quotes about it...
"The best remedy for those who are afraid, lonely or unhappy is to go outside, somewhere where they can be quite alone with the heavens, nature and God. Because only then does one feel that all is as it should be and that God wishes to see people happy, amidst the simple beauty of nature. As longs as this exists, and it certainly always will, I know that then there will always be comfort for every sorrow, whatever the circumstances may be. And I firmly believe that nature brings solace in all troubles." - Anne Frank
"A human being is a part of the whole called by us universe, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feeling as something separated from the rest, a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty." - Albert Einstein
"A quiet secluded life in the country, with the possibility of being useful to people to whom it is easy to do good, and who are not accustomed to have it done to them; then work which one hopes may be of some use; then rest, nature, books, music, love for one's neighbor — such is my idea of happiness." - Leo Tolstoy

Wind,
I too am high-strung. That is normal for me too. So when coffee enters into the pictures, if I am not active enough, makes for an uncomfortable feeling. Last night, I was vibrating. Actually was almost painful . I thought it may have been a psychic attack. But there is no one to talk to at 2:00am. A member texted with me for a time. That helped. But I sure was not capable of sleep. You are Not rambling at all. Feelings from the heart.
Peace to you. Breathe in quiet. I texted 2 yards of of this type of "rambling" to someone who was sleeping. They had to read it all this morning. Lol.

So many thanks to you all for the strong healing I've felt this week.
Mark and Flash, you put me over the top--the slow paperwork logjam is clearing and I'll be home soon.
Love to you all, beautiful spirit beings in form.

she responded.... Its that wonderful smell a flower gives when its being crushed.

OMG ... you have *no* idea how hard it was to find this!
I wanted to find one of the many songs posted by Junebug (Marianne) from yesterdaze to cheer her up and help speed her recovery.
Thought sure she had started a music thread herself but *nope*.
I actually had to go wading though all her past posts to find one :shocked:
Here you go girl ... happy to hear you are doing better!!!

Ulli, what's this about your tooth? We've got an energy circuit going, so come hook in and recharge.
I think I might do just that. This is the weirdest toothache ever. It comes on only when I think about it.
It goes away when I do the oil pulling with coconut oil. Sometimes I rub clove oil, which also helps.
Never lasts more than an hour, usually once a day.
Maximum twice a day.
I was wondering if it has to do with the aging process...bones are shifting and perhaps my jaw is shrinking, and it does feel more like a bone ache.
Pluto is now in my 6th house (health) and this transit lasts years.
Im sure by the time it's over I will be a full-blown hypochondriac.
Just writing about this toothache has brought it back to life. Arrgh.....

Chocolate, you are so right. Children don't bear grudges. They forgive and forget. Until we teach them otherwise.
I remember when I was very young, four or five. In school. It was playtime.
We could play with whatever we wanted. I really did like playing with the clay. But I wasn't fast enough to get it. And I am not the type to push and shove.
I would not ever run to beat someone to the restaurant door. And the blue liters at K mart need to go. ( I think they have). But that is just me. Competition, not for me.
Anyhow, back to my story. I would be so frustrated that I would cry. One day, the teacher noticed. She asked me if I had a problem. So I told her. She went to her stash. ( that all teachers have) and brought out new clay for me. It was clean. And shiny. Not imprinted with marks from so many hands touching it. I was surely lifted up because she noticed me.
She was Miss Keno.

Another "scene" from Job's Biography.
At times he and Powell would indulge in public
displays of affection that were so intense they
embarrassed everyone in their presence, including Kat
Smith and Powell’s mother. In the mornings at his
Woodside mansion, he would wake Powell up by
blasting the Fine Young Cannibals’ “She Drives Me
Crazy” on his tape deck. Yet at other times he would
ignore her. “Steve would fluctuate between intense
focus, where she was the center of the universe, to
being coldly distant and focused on work,” said Smith.
“He had the power to focus like a laser beam, and when
it came across you, you basked in the light of his
attention. When it moved to another point of focus, it
was very, very dark for you. It was very confusing to
Laurene.”

Why do you think the 'experts' are quietly reflecting...
Besides what is happening in that thread has very little to do with the real RV. But if people need the enjoyment, I will not be the reason to stop that coming.
Wind, I am sure the tech. problems you are having are not related to that particular thread. At one point I had some sort of a glitch loading the forum, but it went away in 10 minutes.

It felt good to stay around for a while, but I am getting some headache, and that serves me as a reminder to keep things simple.

I've had glitches before, but nothing like this. I really can't claim that I know much about RV. I tried it for the first time in that thread and got a couple of good hits, but that's all. The lag started 24 hours ago... I was sending a pm about remote viewing to someone, also to my friend who lives in the same country. Now he can't access Avalon from any computer or even his smartphone and I feel responsible for it.
I don't believe in coincidence, but it's also a bit silly to think that why would someone bother to jam my access for something like this. I didn't fully believe in RV before, but I now know that it works, at least for me. Of course this shouldn't be nothing new to me since all my life I've been an extrasensory person. I see what others can't see and I would not rather see it, the dark and ugly sides of humanity... I see it all, the good and the bad. I sense it, I feel it. With my heart.

Since my last post earlier this afternoon things got worse. I could not even drive myself to the dentist, but sat wimpering in my relative's car, pressing ice to my jaw, and going out of my mind with agony.
And they could not even extract the tooth there and then as an abscess is in the process of forming.
So, antibiotics and pain killers it is, for seven days, and extraction happens on Monday.
But I must say, I like my new Barbados dentist. Straightforwardness personified.
And she has seen many cases like mine before, and explained the unpredictable nature of 'irreversible pulpitis'.
This thing was beyond distant healing....too far gone. My bad for ignoring it so long.

I take it the tooth is out. A relief no doubt! Theres very little pain that comes close to that.. I feel for you having that experience :(
I once experienced a maybe similar agony as the result of a craft full no(b)head for a dentist that root filled a front tooth that could have healed with emergency antibiotics and knowledge of anti inflammatory foods herbs etc.. I still stare at it.. knowing the tubular and very alive enamel is rendered futile filled up with crap. I asked him why the protocol for mercury filling was such a strict matter that not even the slightest amount could be tossed (flushed) down the drain and diluted into a way vaster body.. (in a way a it's a contradiction cause the homeopathic resonance would actually amplify it) when it's a obvious no problem whatsoever ditching same into a confined system as a body when filling or removing/replacing it in a human not so open system. The conversation ended there. I'm sure you can imagine why :)

Ulli, I tried to post earlier but server was busy and I lost it.
So sorry about that tooth but hoping the pain med has taken away all that, and antibiotics beginning to clear it up.
I have found self hypnosis very effective on pain like a headache or toothache.
The pain is still there in some way, but I am disconnected from it.
This was years ago and I don't understand what the mechanism is that caused it to work.
Wanted to say, the 4 programs you recommended on the micromat worked like a top today. Been alternating rest and working around the house, and if I stayed up too long like I always do, discomfort - dull pain came to the area they poked at. Just resting, it took nearly an hour to go away. After the 3rd micromat session tonight, it was completely gone in ten minutes.
I have done some healing work this evening too, which I didn't feel able to do earlier today. So thumbs up!

Hi Sven Magne. There are contactees all over this forum.
If you start your own thread, you will possibly get a better response. You need to first open the front page then click on General Discussion, then there should open a page which has a button that says START THREAD.
If you give it a title such as, "Contactees Sharing Experiences" and start it off with a good opening post, you might attract people like yourself.
I was contacted around 15 years ago, and saw hallucinations, at night in my bedroom, but when I told them that I did not wish to have my sleep disturbed any longer, to come back during the day and ring my doorbell, they stopped.
After that I missed them for a while, as part of their display had been quite entertaining.

This is why I can't have cats as pets. I have that nature of focus. If I try to change that nature of focus, nothing gets done.
It works as it should, the way it is built. To change the device to fit the whim and desires of others, or even my own, is to render it dysfunctional.

My 92 year old Mom fell and broke her hip. She has not been in a good state of health for years (chronic back injury has kept her from being active), and has lost much of her lucidity...but now this.
If she was her "old self" (yes, I hear the irony in using that phrase), and was active and lucid, I'd say she is a fighter and will surprise many by healing and making a comeback. But she is frail, and mostly in dementia... and so the pathway brought about with a hip fracture in the elderly looms large.
Send her some love and healing energy, please. I love her so much - and will celebrate when she is free of her broken body, but while she's in it, I don't want degrees of pain to define her existence.

my Mom is having a partial hip replacement in about 45 minutes. I just spoke with her. She is feeling the painkillers ("feeling no pain") but knew who it was talking with her, and that I'm sending lots of love and prayers.
I guess the docs feel she is capable of handling surgery (or that there is no viable option NOT to do surgery - she snapped off the top, the "ball", of her femur.)
Keep those prayers and healing energies flowing, please!

I guess the docs feel she is capable of handling surgery (or that there is no viable option NOT to do surgery - she snapped off the top, the "ball", of her femur.)
Keep those prayers and healing energies flowing, please!
Dennis I hope your moms surgery went well. I am also sending prayer and strength and that she receives all the healing she may require. A candle is lit. May the news you post be good.

My 92 year old Mom fell and broke her hip. She has not been in a good state of health for years (chronic back injury has kept her from being active), and has lost much of her lucidity...but now this.
If she was her "old self" (yes, I hear the irony in using that phrase), and was active and lucid, I'd say she is a fighter and will surprise many by healing and making a comeback. But she is frail, and mostly in dementia... and so the pathway brought about with a hip fracture in the elderly looms large.
Send her some love and healing energy, please...
My Mom made it through surgery, and is in recovery now...

Poor Dennis... This must be a cause of great anxiety for you. Sending your mum love and healing from my end as well.
None of us know what it's going to be like towards the end. Abdu'l-Baha said if it weren't for the agony of aging and those illnesses in later life none of us would ever want to die, which confirmed to me that dying is the result of a wish.
And after that we have capacities unlike any we have here on earth with all this gravity.

Perhaps it follows that the children are also being piped away by video games. I think it is terrifying. They are totally engrossed. Like little robots. Killing and mayhem. And most of the kids are playing these mind numbing games. I talked to my daughter about it. She intimated that her and her husband are verging on taking the games away from their kids. Not a minute too soon. Amen.

I hope everyone is doing as good as possible.
At home we had a difficult night, because my dad went sick with some virus again, and had high temperature, which in his case rendered him immobile.
At 2.30 during the night it was busy... but since I have learnt to be my most trustworthy helper, I sent him healing energies. They seem to have worked. Thus far.
Finally in one of our markets I found a cute french press for some tea or coffee.
I am testing how it works right now. I have one fancier made out of steel and double-walled, but it is also quite big. This one is 350ml, and is simply perfect!
I also managed to start my planting of stinging nettle (I love that plant as a soup, but it definitely doesn't love my hands), some other vegetables and some herbs and flowers. The sun is up almost all the time, and I am happy.
In between I made a quick run of an IQ test.
I am not going to share what the result was... okay, I will share. I am a genius (with an IQ of 150), but that is probably a mistake, I am really quite an average gal.
carryattune, you seem to have a golden heart, or that is how it tends to come across on my side. While everyone here and now is quite extraordinary and lovable (and loving), we all also seem to be very grown-up and serious at times, which only takes away that innocence we also carry around hidden beneath it all.

News from the campaign to clean up French politics. I am posting it here because I haven’t time to document this properly, and also because it is rather hilarious.
1) The (fraudulently elected) president of the rightwing coalition now in opposition is in trouble for siphoning off vast amounts of party funds through no-bid contracts to an agency run by some friends of his. Some of this cash was part of Sarkozy’s presidential campaign funds. He was penalized for overspending and lost 11 million euros in a state refund which was made up for by collecting donations from sympathizers. So basically, it would seem that they have shot each other in the foot: it’s going to be hard to claim that the overspending was overstated on the grounds that it was illicit…
2) Sarkozy himself is in trouble for any number of crimes and misdemeanours currently under investigation. Given his longstanding need to run the whole show, his name invariably crops up whatever misbehaving is going on. The latest is that he has had his phone tapped by judges for a year now. But since he liked to buy off magistrates with promises of promotion, he found out pretty soon that he was under surveillance. So it emerges that he got another phone through his attorney under an assumed name, which he borrowed from an old classmate based in Israel. This classmate is not at all happy at having his identity stolen and is considering litigation. But the major part of this is that Sarkozy thought he could talk freely on this phone; ‘unfortunately’ it was also being tapped, and so investigators have collected another load of damning evidence from the horse’s mouth.
3) Sarkozy’s long-standing adviser Patrick Buisson brought away from the years in the Elysée Palace 280 hours of Dictaphone recordings of everything said in his presence, including discussions of sensitive material in the presence of people with no clearance (including Carla Bruni). ‘Buisson’ means Bush, but this is more reminiscent of the Nixon tapes. Methinks le Petit Nicolas has a lot o’ ‘splainin’ to do.
Meanwhile, the socialist government struggles on, being unable to make any inroads curbing the financial elite. This is a time when the opposition should really be making progress, but it’s not. Maybe the government refraining from interfering in the justice system will be enough to put a few big fish behind bars and eventually cut the financiers’ stranglehold on political power.

Tuesday and Wednesday i was with a group of Northern Native Cree for a seminar on Team work, that had been adapted for their culture, with the médicine Wheel etc. We were in a five star hotel at the foot of one of the best ski resort in Eastern Canada.
I saw how their culture was so different from ours and mostly they still thought of themselves as kind of "inferior" because they do not have the same priorities we "down South - yes Montreal is down South for them lol" have. They were teasing me for my strong French accent in English. The seminar was in English. I loved it and learn about us Whites, as they still call us, and them. I had a good time really.
Today I was with a group of special education technicians and educators and different schoolboard personnel.
Nice to work again a bit. These are the kinds of contracts I used to have, but I would prefer a steady job for the moment.
Mini Flash and I heard there were to have a report on Radio Canada this morning, at 9 AM, on the reptilians on earth. We could not listen, but i will a bit later on.
Tomorrow is off, cleaning the house and starting to clean my mess in my small office. I had not done much for quite a while, in fact since last year, because of everthing going on in our life.
I also went to see someone to "deprogram, de-whatever implants we may have" on the body, etheric, astral and mental layers, that may have been there since Atlantid, etc. I truly do not know how those things work, but strangely it make me some good. I have more energy and I am in a better mood altogether. I did it with Mini Flash, two for the price of one :cool:

Well, I definitely create my reality, and am now paying the price. Some dentist will become rich as a result. I dare not confess how many years my fear of dentists has stopped me from even going for check-ups. Get this...yesterday morning while eating cereal, a huge chunk came off another molar....and then while eating lunch in a restaurant, on the upper jaw, left hand side, ANOTHER piece of tooth broke off. I mean, WTF!!! As if I'm being targeted with a long distant tooth cracker.
But as always, Astrology had the explanation.
Neptune was exactly 180'00'00 opposite my natal Saturn yesterday. 180 opposite all this month. I thought traveling to the ocean would soften that blow, Neptune being the Lord of the Seas, but Neptune is also erosion, and undermines, even Saturnian hard stuff, like teeth and bones. So when I get back home I will also have an osteoporosis test. If this is happening to my teeth, God knows what is going on with my bones. I'm decomposing while still in the body!!

I am sorry about your teeth Ulli. I wish it is only a localised problem. The first thought I had when I read your post was "the bones". A check up on osteoporosis and bone density could be useful may be? You still have for another 40 years to go on Ulli, may as well do it as healthy as you can.
I am happy you are in this beautiful island. Rest a lot and apart from bone density, no worries.

I found this quite interesting. This is not a scientific study, I realize. Anyone who wants to pick this apart could probably do so. But I find it quite suggestive and more than a little thought provoking. I guess I have signed up for Little Grandmother's newsletter, and I receive it from time to time in my email. So I can't source this properly. Take it for what it is, a little something to think about, shared because I'm always looking for positive signs of change or positive bits of news.
First, this suggests that crystals retain an imprint of our intentions. Secondly, it suggests one way to help clean radioactive water. Apparently, people from all over the world sent crystals to Japan in an effort to help clean up the mess. People had used these crystals to send intent to help. See for yourself:
METHOD
We got help from the OMIC Engineering in Japan to perform this test. OMIC Engineering developed a product named ENEX Ceramic. It is made by refining natural ore. This ore looks like tourmaline. It is powdered into nanometer-level particles and then shaped into a ball. The way this ENEX Ceramic Ball is used is to put it into two liters of water and boil it. The cooled-down water now works as ENEX returned water. OMIC engineering did previous tests (without our crystals) and found radiation reduction, but not to zero. The procedure of the experiment and measurement:
1. The crystals used for this experiment were stored at a depository side by side with the stock of ENEX Ceramic Balls and prayers were given to them.
2. The crystals and ENEX Ceramic Balls sat together for at least one
month period before the experiment started.
3. ENEX Ceramic return water was made out of the ENEX Ceramic Balls
out of this depository.
4. ENEX Ceramic returned water was applied to the radiation-contaminated
objects; The levels of radiation of all objects (like contaminated fruits)
before the experiment was above 130Bq/kg.
RESULTS
Measurement:
Condition: object(s) soaked in ENEX Ceramic return water for two minutes.
Result of Measurement:
Radioactive Cesium 134: Not Detected
Radioactive Cesium 137: Not Detected
Radioactive Cesium 134 and 137 combined: Not Detected
“Not Detected” means the measured value is less than 10 Bq/kg.
DISCUSSION
Experiments with only ENEX Ceramic Ball (without using the Crystals send by the Tribe of Many Colors) never recorded “Not Detected”, although the radioactivity level went down to some extent. As soon as we combined the crystals installed with prayers and Love and ENEX Ceramic Balls, and they started communicating with each other in the depository, the radioactivity went to ZERO!!!
SECOND RESULTS
Fukushima s radioactive water (19800bq) was mixed with Omic ENEX reverse water and with the crystals from the Tribe of Many Colors. After one month: no count of radiations found, green algae and water weeds started forming in this water from nowhere! This clearly shows that LIFE FORMS came back in the ex-radioactive water with the help of crystals. As soon as we started receiving crystals from the Tribe of Many Colors from all over the world, these effects on radioactive water were shown.
Much Love,

Here and now, it is overcast outside. Little One visited for a few days this week, being his spring break and all. We played outside, and we played donkey kong haha. Man, oh man, does this child have some energy. Wore me out. Phew. It was lovely, and crazy. Saddened me to take him home. Not that I wanted to keep him here, just that the conditions there are sad.
K is not one to open up. Never was. When she was young, it could be days before she would talk about something that bothered her at school. I always knew right away something was amiss, but had to allow her to process and open up on her own. What I found was that I had to drop little seeds her way, and they would inevitably grow. That is still how it is.
She has opened up to me every so slightly. And one thing she shared was that she was a little afraid of being a single mom of two, and that is what she will be if the relationship with whatshisname doesn't work out. That one statement spoke volumes. In response, I told her that she is stronger than she is giving herself credit for, and that everything will be okay. I told her to trust that everything will work out, and that she really shouldn't be stressing so much. Stress doesn't do a single thing, except give this new baby (and Little One) a stressful environment. And I didn't say any more.
Yesterday when I took Little One home, she told me about a situation with choosing a pre-natal doctor. Something about a deductible on her insurance, and she doesn't have two dimes to rub together. She asked me, out of the blue, how in the world she could not stress about this. She said something like, "I am not supposed to stress all the time. How in the world am I supposed to do that?"
Which of course is the teeny tiny opening I see once in a while, and take always. I said, "You stay in this moment. You have a general plan for tomorrow, who to call and what to ask and such. So there is nothing else but to stay in this moment, the one you have now. Here and now. And you let that situation be."
Such a little thing. But I do what I can, any opportunity to bring her around. Or I guess it is more accurate to say any opportunity to be here as she comes around all by herself.
This morning I am again pulling the cords from my lower midsection. Have to maintain some distance in order to live my own Here and Now. Sending Blessings and Unplugging.
In fact, while I'm sending blessings, I will most definitely leave Blessings behind as I step back out of the Village :)

Well I found out a couple weeks ago that my son and daughter-in-law are expecting twins (I get a strong feeling it will be 2 girls - we'll see)! I am just now really getting to know my 6 year old grandson as I now live close enough to make that a little easier to do. Talk about energy! Mom and Dad went the typical socially programed way and have him on the Dr. prescribed Ritalin, but we never give it to him when he comes to our house. So by the time he goes home the next day my husband and I both are pretty wore out. But he is so fun and funny to get to know. I am grateful I get to be in his life.
Speaking of teeth, I'll share a little something I haven't shared here before. Back in 2008 I had ex-rays of my teeth and the bones that are supposed to hold them in and I was told then I would need to have surgery. It's a very long story (so please don't tell me what I should have done), but anyway, other than having a couple teeth pulled I haven't been able to do anything since then. See, my teeth themselves are actually (or were) in very good shape so I just didn't get it when years ago I was told I had deep pockets. I didn't have pain or bleeding or even loose teeth or many cavities back then. I have a personal regime I maintain and by all rights I should probably be dead but I just keep on chugging along until we sell our boat (and I know it's going to happen soon, I can feel it). Then I'm going to have them all pulled out and access the situation then when I can actually follow through on the best course of action financially. I spent a ton of money on root planing back in the early 2000's (twice!) and now know it was a gimmick to get you to spend lots of money to only delay things by a couple years, which they (the experts) all know. I wouldn't have had the root canal I had back in the early 90's either, now that I know what I know. In fact, I probably could have stopped what was happened to the bones in my mouth, had I known back then what I know now. But that is just me and what I found after doing a lot of research. So, I manage to keep the infection at bay, cause let's face it, until I get rid of the source of the problem, it's not going to go away. But it will be nice one day soon to find out what it is like to not have my body constantly having to work overtime.
But then again, I've also heard of cases of people who have regrown teeth. Anyway Ulli, I feel for you. I never used to have a problem in the dentist chair and now I almost have a full blown panic attack at just the thought of it. So stupid that dental is treated as something separate from medical, especially when it comes to insurance.

Hi all!
A quick stop to say thank you! For the inspiration, and for the film idea :)!
Today I was busy being in a motherly mood, planting more (seeds).
So far I have put in the soil cucumbers, peppers, nettle, basil, arugula, sage.
I have kept some more for tomorrow.
Here and Now (already evening, but during the day) was Sunny and Warm. It was a T-shirt day.
Wonderful posts, 1inMany, as always it was pure pleasure to read. I can only imagine how it would have felt. Come here, now, more.
Ulli, I am sorry to hear about your teeth. When I was a kid I was horrified by the dentists. After years of proper care, braces at a middle age (so to say) to put things straight, and after a few other manipulations, I have overcome any fear of pain or related to dental work. If I ever get to have kids, I will make sure they don't go through what I have been through. you should take care of your kidneys too.
***
I have to say I had a terrible night. If I go by the information in one of yesterday's threads, I was surely possessed by a jinn! but actually I was just sick.
I started to swap letters around, so that is the extend of my contribution for the day.
I am sending to everyone an amount of love and energies! I am warning you in case later on someone accuses me of 'possessing' him... joking.
( 1inMany will receive her part even outside the forum. )

i thought i would drop by and thank everyone again, for all your thoughts and prayers during my mothers illness and passing.
Now she has transitioned and is released from all her pain and suffering,
it's been quite the ride. In between her passing and her transitioning she was very much with me, and quite the chatterbox.
We did alot of healing and catching up, we never were very close, for many reasons my family was not a safe place for me to be.
And she got to fully understand that in the time she was with me, it was all more fascinating than grief filled. But i guess being a shamanic
practitioner our view of death is certainly not an ending but just part of the big wheel of life.
At her funeral she even made sure i took communion, something i don't usually do, but this was her tradition, so i "got it" and i did it for her.
Then on the Sunday after the funeral i performed a ritual to make sure of her clear passage. I can't do into details here, but to say that is was
an honor to be able to be there for her, to make sure she was fully resolved here and so crossed over with much peace.
Everyone in the family seems to be doing remarkable well also, and I'm sure that has to do with the fact that she has fully left
the planet. My father who has dementia, has just been moved into his own single room, which he is happy about. Although he does think
he is going home, in a couple of months, which of course can't and wont happen. I will be seeing him every week as a part of this new chapter.
He is now on mood stabilizers, which means he is much less aggressive and there is no more anger directed towards me, which had been happening
for as long as i have known him.
The next chapter for me, is a Vision Quest coming up in 6 weeks, so that is my focus now. Yesterday i started to reduce my coffee intake, and i certainly
felt the withdrawals, so a few more days of feeling like crap and i should be fine. The sweat lodge on Sunday, should also sweat out some of it.
So its detox time for me.
Over and out for now,
blessings to you all

waterpiks and mms are good for deep root/tooth infections, and cavities. Possibly even for those beneath a filling. Depends on the gap or leakage issue with the given filling.
Well, after doing everything I could orally to alleviate my toothache externally, by gargling and irrigating with the water pic using MMS, I came to the conclusion that the bacteria had traveled internally and that I needed to go after the bacteria internally. So last might, I mixed up some MMS and drank it before going to bed. I slept like a baby. I think the MMS arrested the internal bacteria. Today I am going to use my parazapper to make sure the bacteria is eliminated.
As far as the teeth falling apart, well, the only protocol I've began using is supplementing with cell salts. The information relative to this protocol are highlighted here.

Thank you for drawing attention to this. There is an absolute wealth of info there. I do use the IPSAB mouthwash and it seems to be pretty good. I used to brush with ORAM-D but it was too expensive so I tried this to see and have had less problems. I have to buy some more MMS as with all the moves last year I believe it is in storage and I doubt it is good to use after being frozen and thawed repeatedly; plus I have no idea where it is in there. I would recommend to be careful when using MMS and just say that more is not always better. It can produce some pretty dramatic results, depending on your overall health. I can remember at least once when I was caught off guard and almost didn't make it to a restroom when out in public a number of years ago. Not good. Definitely good to have in your health maintenance cabinet.

That's what I meant Ulli, a very pleasant setting in which to enjoy some good food.
On the subject of dental care, I kind of slipped under the radar after my sister made a great fuss over an incident with the gas This was in the days when my parents' wartime gas masks were still lying around in the garage for some reason, and I guess I turned the thing into some horror scenario. However, my teeth were OK because this was in an area where everyone's teeth were so much healthier than elsewhere, and then they discovered natural fluoride in the local water supply. Hence I'm still a little ambivalent about the fluoride debate - although not about the spelling :)

Wanna know something weird, mum? After that talk about celebrities at our table the other night and you saying that you don't know any of the names I mentioned, we missed Justin Timberlake by one night. Surely you know who he is...
(Yeah, I know the name, but can't put a face to it) he came to have dinner with the Mottleys (prominent Barbadian lawyer, whose daughter became Deputy Prime Minister)
Anyway, I would not have thought this was worth the mention, until I saw Dennis' post.

"Now as I promised", said Kashendo, "I shall tell you what we know of your past incarnations in our own Confederation. (*We have noted that in a great many extended UFO contact cases, the contactee is eventually identified as one of the contact group from earlier time, now incarnated in an Earth body, and being awakened to his true identity and the reason for contacting him instead of another. It is a difficult point because the western mind does not accept reincarnation as a potential reality.)
“It is a vast subject and there is much to tell. Let me begin by saying that the master register is stored in a gigantic memory bank on the mother planet of Grandor. Here are the records of all beings who have lived lives in the Confederation."
Kashendo explained that the giant computer is housed in 37 buildings which are arranged in a circle around a central building. Most of the staff work in the central building which collects the required data from "memory cells", consisting of thousands of transparent tubes with crystals inside them. Each tube is capable of storing many thousands of symbols and a memory bank consists of many thousands of these transparent tubes. The data is stored indefinitely and when needed the controllers extract it in coded form which is then decoded to provide the required information. All the equipment is very complex and kept in a special atmosphere.
NOTE- Here for the first time Edwin and other members of the group around him are given some of their own past life history in the Confederation before incarnating in Earth bodies. This is a difficult aspect of this phenomenon to explain because it comes up in groups all over the world that are not in contact with each other and often never heard of the others. In most cases those involved have not even accepted reincarnation as a theory until this point, but they get answers that then changes their whole belief system, and triggers memory keys that they can identify with awakening them to a new reality.
The memory cells store inumerable personal features and characteristics which reappear in the same individual through many lives. When a search is made, a special computer transmits the details of the required person to the whole range of memory cells. As soon as the features are recognized by a memory bank a message is transmitted back to the central control building where it is recorded. The whole process is complicated and Kashendo said that he found it difficult to describe it accurately, but he hoped it explained how the Grandorians are able to trace people's lives through time, at least within the Confederation.

Okay, so there's a group ever so lovingly referred to as tptb/tptw. And okay, extraterrestrials/multidimensional beings exist. Abductions and interferences happen. There's a war going on out there, in every direction known and unknown. And things will have to change, collapse, be rebuilt. And sticks have animals in them and Angels are real. And what we are begins and ends in Mystery. And energies are detected. And there are energy strings. And I can whip up a candle that keeps negative juju away at the herb store. And there is a God, but not one who owns human attributes.
That's a whole helluva lot of waking up in a year and a half.
Just to make sure this transformation is complete, throw in what's physical. Of course nothing is solely physical. But distance from dramas, distance from who I thought was my soul-partner. Distance from the two older children, distance from the grand-baby. At the same time, enter some people who I may never meet in person, enter some people I have met in person, who have changed my life immeasurably.
And I would have to say that it's no wonder. It's no wonder it is impossible to find any footing here. It's no wonder I yearn to have some control over something. It's no wonder I feel like nothing is the same. Because nothing is the same.
So where does that leave me, here and now? Well, I guess I'm wondering...since I feel like I am a rug that has been shaken out...what is next? I can't say that everything that needed to be shaken out has been, I can't say that this is finished, I can't say what is coming, I can't say what my purpose is or that I know who I Am, or I am. What can I say?

Your purpose is to be the great home maker; the solid presence your children and grandchild need to discover what it means to have a guide and a refuge, until they are old enough to pass that same virtue on to their own.
I consider that an immense task, and it seems to me that you are doing a great job.
P.S. back from the dentist...still biting on that cotton wad, and feeling numb. Great feeling of relief. The cavity was in the side of the root, underneath the gum line, next to another tooth, and so was not detected until the pains hit me. Such a relief it's over. The hole can not be seen when I speak, at least it's not obvious, so I think I'll pass on that implant job.

Eh. Being a home maker doesn't sound like a big deal. It feels like a big deal when I can't get out of bed, granted. But...I'm still searching for that Other purpose, haha. Some people rv, some people bilocate, some people meld with man-made weather to stop potential crises, some people blow the whistle, some people position themselves inside the structure so that they will be ready when the time comes, some people use their ability to work with energy to heal or to shift things...all seem to have found some purpose in all this. Me? Yeah, I'm working on mustering up the energy to get to the grocery store, or finding a suggestion for K's morning sickness, or getting M through this latest fever/chills/cough ick. And answering questions that I have no answers for, for them and for myself.
Just seems...unimportant. Or...unfulfilling. Or...not enough I guess. And as I hear myself say that, I think "what, I don't have enough going on, I need to save the world?" And I smile.

hi,
Maybe you didn't realize it. but you are doing it allready. probably have been for way longer than you seem to think. Lets say from birth?
As you know I have spend long times searching for purpose, meaning, something to do. And you know what. I have found it is exactly in those little things you do every day. I have meditated for visions. prayed for guidance. begged for something meaningfull to do. But as I find there is no I to do anything. just being aware seeing and responding to what arises from moment to moment. Be it a blissful state at retreat or anger at the school of one of my many kids. just being there makes all the difference.
for now it may not be your purpose to save all of us from the ptw. Evil aliens or false gods.
your questions and insights are an inspiration to me and I think to a lot more people. And thats on and off the forums i feel.

1inMany...bilocating, visions, and all those other psi abilities are going to be yours anyway, after this earthly existence is finished, but for now, being there for the young, or the elderly, or anyone with needs for that matter, is still THE top priority IMO.
Without this guidance all the other abilities are not worth a farthing...because someone has to instruct the next generation.
Bottom line is that without basic care (food and rest) and education, (reading and writing and arithmetic) and instruction in ethics and good manners, the future of mankind will be hell on earth, as it already is for those who don't understand the value of such provisions.

Thank you Ulli. Immensely. I got tears in my eyes from the energy now whooshing in our house; I fib not. Just a few minutes ago, while in the bedroom, between posting and refreshing the page to see your reply, I was suddenly overcome with the whoooooosh and all my hairs stood on end, as they are now as I type, conscious of the energy. I checked her temp and it dropped by 6 tenths, and her eyes showed more clarity and awareness. I'll check the temp again shortly and will be jubilant at any further drop in degree. Thanks again and blessing to you as well.

Very warm compresses are good for your wife's immediate comfort. A very warm shower allowing the water to pulse over the affected area will also help to relieve the inflamation. Hopefully minute by minute and all the good thoughts coming your way, that your wife will be markedly better quickly.

My friends sister died last night as her house burned to ashes. Her youngest child died also, but 4 other were either able to escape the flames or were not home. I didnt know my friends sister, but still I feel very sad. Not because of the dead souls, they have nothing to worry anymore, but the 4 kids who lost their single-mom and my friend ofcourse. + Hard to focus on work as I keep thinking how fragile life is. And how pointless my job is. I should be enjoying my family 'cos I have one. So should you. If you still have one.

My condolences to you Arak, that was a pretty violent tragedy and you are close enough to feel great shock. Your friend is going to need a friend, and those poor children are going to need all the help they can get too. Much of life is about coping and surviving; some from a very early age. No wonder work seems pointless. Take care.

Our connectedness means that everyone who is sensitive will feel repercussions from this event.
I hope these children can receive loving counselling and that there are family members who care for them.
Such a tragedy. But it is often events like these that bring forth the spiritual part of a person, and they will receive signs from the parent who died.
After a small plane crashed in the Amazon rain forest where the only survivor was an eleven-year-old girl, she walked for days before she was found by some tribes people who returned her to civilization. And during those days her deceased mother guided her via telepathy, telling her how to follow the river downstream, and even when she found an abandoned hut she followed the advice not give in to the temptation to sleep under that roof, but instead remain right by the river's edge... where she was found the next morning. And once she was found the mother's voice stopped.
I'm hoping that the mother of your friend's sister's children will send them this kind of guidance as well.

Ulli: I personally believe that everyhting holds a purpose. Even this this tragedy. As you said, it can be portal to spiritual pathway - to understand that we are connected and eternal. Sadly my friend is quite hardcore atheist so I can't go explaining these things to him, atleast not yet. But I trust that if it is ment for him or the orphans to open their eyes that will happen.

Hello villagers,
It's been a while since I last visited Avalon forums. Wow, now that I think about it, my last login was in 2013 so, first of all: I wish you all a happy 2014!
A lot of things happened since then, in the outside and inside me. I was in Japan spending Christmas holidays. What a wonderful trip! And I made a decision that involves a tough contact with nature and a deep understanding of my physical and mental limits: I'll try to climb MontBlanc in 2015, so this winter I've been training in Spanish mountains, taking mountaineering and rock climbing lessons, minor winter (snow+ice) climbs...
On the inside I've been through dark time. Reading a lot about sociopaths and psychopaths in search of some answers, finding that psychopathic traits surround us every day, even finding some of this traits emerging from my darkest side.
However, I've been thinking of you often. Specially when I feel fine, connected with mother Gaia, under some trees, surrounded by snow or enjoying the company of wild life.
Peace :)

Did anyone ever see the above movie?
When it came out in 1972, it looked at the time
as if the end of the ruling class was near.
I remember it well, living in England at the time....
how it stirred conversations
just like the ones we see happening on this forum.
And then what happened?
They just burrowed deeper,
and now the sales of royalty tabloids are bigger than ever.

Trip to Japan? How did you like it?
Since you are my son's astrological twin, I'm seeing parallel lives.
He went to Japan as well, six years ago. And both of you live on a small tourist island.
He has as yet to discover mountain climbing, but perhaps it is just a matter of time.
Anyway, I'm glad to know you have not forgotten us.
I was wondering what happened to you. Here, have a Welcome Back hug.

I am watching today what Edward Snowden had to say. (Yesterday I was preoccupied.)
I felt like smiling looking at his remotely controlled 'avatar'. Kind of reminds me of our human bodies and the relationship with our 'gods'.
I also noticed the way he referred to the internet and the 'ideology' we need to be incorporating in its core. ...
It's kind of funny, and amusing, and overall feels great, at least to me.

I wanted to write this Here (Now):
From The Sorrows of Young Werther
by J. W. von Goethe
May 22
That the life of man is but a dream, many a man has surmised heretofore; and I, too, am everywhere pursued by this feeling. When I consider the narrow limits within which our active and inquiring faculties are confined; when I see how all our energies are wasted in providing for mere necessities, which again have no further end than to prolong a wretched existence; and then that all our satisfaction concerning certain subjects of investigation ends in nothing better than a passive resignation, whilst we amuse ourselves painting our prison-walls with bright figures and brilliant landscapes, — when I consider all this, Wilhelm, I am silent. I examine my own being, and find there a world, but a world rather of imagination and dim desires, than of distinctness and living power. Then everything swims before my senses, and I smile and dream while pursuing my way through the world.
All learned professors and doctors are agreed that children do not comprehend the cause of their desires; but that the grown-up should wander about this earth like children, without knowing whence they come, or whither they go, influenced as little by fixed motives, but guided like them by biscuits, sugar-plums, and the rod, — this is what nobody is willing to acknowledge; and yet I think it is palpable.
I know what you will say in reply; for I am ready to admit that they are happiest, who, like children, amuse themselves with their playthings, dress and undress their dolls, and attentively watch the cupboard, where mamma has locked up her sweet things, and, when at last they get a delicious morsel, eat it greedily, and exclaim, “More!” These are certainly happy beings; but others also are objects of envy, who dignify their paltry employments, and sometimes even their passions, with pompous titles, representing them to mankind as gigantic achievements performed for their welfare and glory. But the man who humbly acknowledges the vanity of all this, who observes with what pleasure the thriving citizen converts his little garden into a paradise, and how patiently even the poor man pursues his weary way under his burden, and how all wish equally to behold the light of the sun a little longer, — yes, such a man is at peace, and creates his own world within himself; and he is also happy, because he is a man. And then, however limited his sphere, he still preserves in his bosom the sweet feeling of liberty, and knows that he can quit his prison whenever he likes.

It took me a while to find the Here and Now thread this morning...page 5,
just as I'm having a hard time finding the present moment.
The recent shifts have left me feeling bewildered.
Getting used to being alone again,
although husband sends me Whatsapp messages about his here and now
whenever he gets a chance.
Only when I'm making my necklaces and bracelets do I feel connected.
The noises are mostly bird song, wood doves, warblers, rustling tree branches.
This is a world unlike any other in that it has typical island softness, and at this moment, perfect weather.
Will be going out in a while to buy a new bulb for my work light.

I'm a little off too, ulli. Here and Now, it is chilly outside but promises to be beautiful, weather-wise. Thursday is my day in the city, quite a lot of driving for me. Not a day I enjoy, taking M to her therapist. But necessary. What makes it difficult is when I have a night like last night, couldn't sleep til close to midnight. Then the puppy woke me up around 5. Not enough awake to get up and let her outside, but enough awake to know I was not getting any more sleep. Em finally took her out, but it seems just when I got back to sleep the alarm went off. It doesn't help that I was having dreams to remind me of the part of marital bliss I no longer enjoy. I had set the timer on the coffee so I could roll out of bed and have a hot cup. But I must have set it for pm instead of am. Oy. Hoping to stay awake all day. Of course I will, just hoping I don't have to pump up on coffee all day.

Most apples in Barbados and Costa Rica are GMO crap. I miss real apples.
Now everyone is debating if the local Pawpaw is already GMO as well...

Here and now, thinking of you all.
Ulli, I am wearing one of the necklaces you designed for me. The one with green stones.
Carry, re jewelry design ... try it, just begin. Do you have a bead board? You can try a design there before you string anything. Do what pleases you.
Ulli inspires me, and before I got sick, I had put up a design on the board which I still haven't strung but will. It's freshwater pearls (white) with peridot tiny flat beads and crystal chips in between every third pearl. Turned out very pretty. The gemstones inspire me too. Colors and textures in joyful arrangements.
I cooked last night -- made quiche with a bought crust, sweet onion and portabella mushrooms, chopped fresh spinach. An all in one meal, veggies inside.
Today is the Vernal Equinox, 12:57 P.M. Eastern time. It's my custom to stop at the moment of the equinoxes and solstices, and connect with nature spirits, and ask them to bring me what's next in my evolution. It's a moment of trust because sometimes what I get is a challenge. But that's life, isn't it?

I sure am glad y'all are keeping me company. I just picked up M, now sitting in the parking lot while she does her thing. Boy, Dallas is a dangerous place to drive, haha. From time to time I think about encouraging her to drive herself. After that wreck she had that totalled her car she is scared of driving. No doubt she will not be ready to try Dallas driving for years.
To be honest, the drive isn't what makes this day difficult. It is pulling up in front of my house, and knowing it isn't mine. My yard, that I used to water every evening, my willow tree that I used to sit under...all brown and dead. My flower beds that this time of year I would be filling with pretty colors...brown and dead. I don't go in any more, I call M to tell her I am waiting so I don't have to face that.
Today though, I brought her goodies. Yogurt from the dairy farm to counteract the antibiotics for strep, and some eggs from Susan's house. So I had to go in. Five months into this process and I haven't yet cleaned my stuff out completely. The pictures on the walls that I hand picked, the colorful rugs to match the paint I chose and applied with the utmost care and love.
Cripey.
Well, just another day. It all blends together to make the soup of this here and now.

Rubbish - it's probably just the sculptor was more interested in carving a woman - it has been known :)
However, males and females have certain anatomical differences that may indicate greater or lesser enlightenment, or at least friendliness. My daughter was saying the other day how in one breed of horses, only the males have molars: the males and some bolshy mares.
Now there's something to chew on. You thought I was talking about the curvy bits. :)

Ulli, having finished my accounts, I duly watched that movie The Ruling Class last night. I try to keep my financial transactions to a minimum, but I’m afraid this is going to be a little longer. My apologies to those who prefer shorter posts.
Strangely, yesterday morning, I was looking at some poetry by Arthur Rimbaud, including Le Dormeur du Val, in which a man appears to be sleeping in the grass until at the very end you hear about two red holes in his right side: he is dead. This scene is played out in the film when the Peter O’Toole character Jack moves from JC to Jack the Ripper mode.
For those who have not seen this film, this earl is institutionalized for as long as he thinks he is Jesus Christ/a loving God, and he only snaps out of it when confronted with another madman who thinks he is the vengeful god Yahweh. (This reminded me of an episode of The Prisoner, posted somewhere on the forum, in which the hero is confronted with a doppelganger.) The idea is that lovingness is indeed a crazy aberration for these people (the problem here being that any normal person would also want him certified). Once cured of that, he is officially proclaimed sane, which is when he can start killing women and go scot-free. His foreign psychiatrist, who says ‘I have an abdomen full of the upper classes’, ends up himself going mad. Meanwhile the faithful manservant, who naturally gets framed for murder, turns out to be a Soviet spy. There is a lot of over-the-top stuff, including comedy (especially the bishop character) and musical interludes, which I suppose helps to convey the craziness of the whole thing – meaning that if you want to cringe, that is probably intentional.
This film is an interesting outside view of the typically British aristocracy (frightful). However, I think I found the Bruni film I described a while back more disturbing, because it was the self-portrait of Franco-Italian money with no intention to sound stark-raving mad. However, not being a deliberate caricature, it may have fed people’s own milder form of madness in a way that The Ruling Class could not.
I would also compare this fictional case of madness with a real-life case I have studied in banking families, particularly that of the art historian Aby Warburg, who was hospitalized for several years, and who managed unexpectedly to cure himself and go home. He was the eldest of the Warburgs who renounced his banking career for art. Why he did so and why he became a danger to his own loved ones I put down to his understanding and disapproval of what was going on in the family business, and when he died in October 1929, I suspect he was murdered when about to blow the whistle. Of course, his sanity passing for madness implies as a corollary the madness of the rest of them passing for sanity. He was truly mad for a while, but this is only because the rest of the time he was ‘as mad as hell’ as we say.
Another interesting aspect of the film was the way politics come into it. The earl takes up his place in the House of Lords, London’s supposedly powerless upper chamber, depicted in flashes as a charnel-house of rotting corpses covered in cobwebs. But all through, we are reminded that another family member is campaigning to become the member of Parliament’s lower chamber, the House of Commons, where he will work hand in hand with the lord. In other words, in addition to their financial stranglehold, these people wield the real political power from behind the façade of powerlessness.
This leads me to a book called The Madness of Kings: Personal Trauma and the Fate of Nations, by Vivian Green (1993), which has as its ‘underlying thesis that there is not merely a fundamental connection between health and politics but that political behaviour may be an externalization of private problems and personality disorders.’ She starts with the Roman emperors, who made no bones about considering themselves as gods (most notably Caligula), ending with the 20th century’s ‘”infirmity” of politicians’ (an interesting collective noun) and ‘madmen in jackboots’. While much of what she says about our psychopathic rulers is no doubt correct, I just want to mention a few areas where she may be overstating her case. Ronald Reagan was probably mad and definitely a gerontocrat, but this had nothing to do with Mrs Reagan’s recourse to astrology. And did Kennedy really suffer from psychiatric complications from the side-effects of his pain-killing drugs? If so, which crazy policies are we talking about? We know of many sane ones that likely got him murdered. And does Mackenzie King truly fall into this category on account of his dealings with the medium, Mrs L. Bleaney of Kingston? (incidentally Ben Fulford’s father was an adviser of his).
‘The influence of the talk with that woman’, he wrote, ‘is strange, it has brought me very near to the dear ones in the Great Beyond, what seems now more like the Great Omnipresent, Here and Now’.
The problem is, you see, that there is barely a hair’s breadth between the two sides of this struggle we are seeing between psychopathic rule and the ultimate sanity that we ourselves claim to have, or at least to be seeking. For the ordinary person addressing their everyday issues, both sides sometimes appear equally mad (or equally sane: Kennedy was popular, but so was Reagan). So, Carmody’s ideas about screening for psychopathy may seem evil or liberticidal to some. The difference is in the potential outcome: we haven’t seen the other side of the picture yet, just the present age-long chaos.
To get back to this film, the question is: how far have we come since 1972 in dissociating the grain of sanity in this loving Christlike David-Icke-in-purple figure from the mad earl’s madness? Well, David-Icke-in-purple was 20 years after the movie. Another 20 years since then, he is being taken a lot more seriously. Progress is being made.

I'm glad you watched the movie. Anyone who has been on Avalon for a while ought to do so.
It really got me thinking, too, but while I found the time to watch it
I don't have the time to write a brilliant review like yours.
Just one thing I needed to point out...which I believe to be true...as I trust the source where I found this
Both Reagans were into astrology...it was their mutual interest which brought them together in the first place.
Nothing is ever quite what it appears to be, least of all if it is an image presented by the MSM.
And I also want to say that I believe progress has been made since 1972. The Internet exists.
Of course the dark side had to work overtime to keep their schemes going...
Which means at least the rich aren't as idle as they used to be.

Wild Kitty is the one at my house who first serenades the humans, when the first tiniest speck of the bowl beneath the food begins to show. A phenomenon most people owned by cat are familiar with.
Of course, if the speck becomes a spot any larger than a quarter then the song of one becomes a chorus of four to six.

I’m looking for a name for a horse, three syllables, beginning with an E. Answers on a postcard, no prizes. :)
I’ve just discovered this young lady Emilie Simon after she gave a very sophisticated and articulate interview to a classical radio station. Apparently she studied at the Conservatoire and at IRCAM, the experimental contemporary music acoustic laboratory founded by Pierre Boulez no less. The groundbreaking Boulezes of this world are indispensable, but so too are the successors able to put their discoveries into generally palatable form.

My kids surprise me at every turn. I was feeling a little claustrophobic the last couple of days, I couldn't understand why Em was under my feet. Even when I would sneak outside and want to just commune with nature, feel the sun's warmth on my skin, breathe in deeply the spring air. And there she would be, chatty Cathy. Then I figured it out.
You all know I faced something very difficult this week, one more step. And while I was in the house, M was there, constantly giving me hugs and telling me it was okay. I really thought I was doing pretty well, but she is so intuitive. I have always tried to keep the adult things away from my children. But as they grow up, there is less of that possible. Still, I don't want them to be mad at their Dad, or have any ill feelings. It is what it is. In fact, it is ultimately something that needed to happen in order for me to grow to the next level (whatever that is, haha).
Apparently, M let Em know what I was doing that was making me late to get home. And I arrived home, car full, to a big hug and a smile from Em. And then it started. This being under my feet thing. Next thing you know, she is making my coffee every morning, tidying up the whole house (including the kitchen which is a miracle in and of itself), and of all things, leaving me encouraging notes all over the house.
I'm sharing this one with you, very special friends to me:

And I will share the coffee, too:

As far as their Dad goes, they are each seeing right through my bs, as I remind them to be compassionate and I remind them how much they are loved. I guess...I guess one's true colors are seen by their children and at some point there is no amount of love-coating that changes that.
I do hope everyone has a great Saturday, filled with love. Yes, I did say that. :)
In fact, Much Love,

Thanks everyone for your suggestions. There are various additional hidden constraints I didn't mention, including pronounceability by dyslexic Frenchmen and a possible dynastic suffix. A bit of an impossible task really. Anyway I shall have picked your brains, which will have done some good to yours and to mine as well :)
Dennis, how many gears are there on that cutter? I only ask because I have a German salad dryer with both a finger brake and a parking brake.
I read a report the other day on how eggs, butter, saturated fat and red meat etc. were no longer bad for you. On the contrary, a mega-meta-study of experiments involving altogether over 600,000 people suggests that they are much healthier than the junk that have been consumed on the basis of decades of contrary recommendations. So I guess pizza will do just fine.
