Keyword of the times - Kindness

I have been hearing many speaking of gloom and doom; for our immediate future and our long term outlook. It is times like these that I know the best way is to deal with some of the ugly things coming at us with a dose of kindness.

First thing is think of getting your things in order. Get rid of the things you are not using by giving it to someone who can use it. This will help bring more into your world. Organize and prepare every needful thing, for your family and yourself. This is the time to use the good part of selfish.

Second, with the economy taking a nose dive things at home get stressful. Domestic crimes due tend to rise, theft and violence always bubble up when desperation sneaks in into our lives. Keep an eye on coworkers, friends and associates. This is the time to expand who we know and who knows you. The signs will be just as evident of their crisis as it will be with your situation. Your open ear and friendly shoulder will comfort depression and victims of violence. Make sure everyone knows you are the one they can rely on for the Charity that is lacking.

Third, encourage your associates, employers and colleges to become more humane in their communications and associations. This is the time employers should be stepping up for charities, sponsoring local organizations, and showing they are really out for the betterment of the community. The companies need to be really helping out with Boys and Girl Scouts, other Church missions and showing support to local charities. This is the time when those large corporations, Wal-Mart, McDonalds, Dollar Tree and other low value stores can show their high morals.

Fourth, learning something new, spiritually. Do not open up your scriptures and think you got all the answers. The scriptures are simply, like history books, things we have not learned from the past. This goes for any scripture, Koran, Bible, ancient texts. Get out there and be Charity, Love and Goodwill. You have within you the entire library of Knowledge. You just have to open it up. Ask within yourself the questions you have and you will get the answer.

I have looked to my key influences, the people who have made the most impact in my life. They have always been patient, kind, non-demanding, givers of need, just and listen with their heart. We have no time to deal with those who put their view points upon us unjustly. The time is upon us to give unconditionally and to receive the same. Our opportunity to learn from others misfortunes is at hand and we need to show we are humans with hearts that are full of love and understanding even when desperation has us in its clutches.

Namaste'

Seaside

Meet me in the waves so we can gently rock upon the sand and fall upon each other within the darkness of the deepest sea and give to the ocean her song of stillness Let us sway with her sea grass like a flag of beauty that she brings to battle For every mountain swallowed within her is but a grain of sand placed in an oyster shell Even the islands will be her gown upon our wedded bliss Her rains will come to the highlands and bear down fruit of many trees Though man will divert the rivers and dam the flows Oh the patience of the water will break down and erode every low place to deep canyons We will pool and calm the lake waters until it is clear like a crystal ball in our hands

Today is the day of the Revolution!

The carefully guarded legacy of the Beatles is to be unleashed again upon the world. It is truly another invasion in the form of a Revolution. The release of the third popular "Rock Band" and "Guitar Hero" allow players to mimic their favorite Beatles band member with "The Beatles: Rock Band." Forty-five Beatles tunes are featured in the game with instrumental parts, accompanied by animation sequences that will draw oohs and ahhs from fans. Fans choose a song and a member of the band, like, George Harrison's guitar line on "Day Tripper" and follow along as the animated Beatles perform. Fans will play their favorite songs through great venues such as the Cavern Club and Shea Stadium. Later sequences take place in Abbey Road studio and other interpretive fantasy environments inspired by song lyrics and themes. The seed was planted by son of George Harrision, the late Beatles guitarist, Dhani Harrison, who approached Harmonix with the idea. Ever...

What Heaven and Hell are like

A holy man was having a conversation with God one day and said, ' God , I would like to know what Heaven and Hell are like.' God led the holy man to two doors. He opened one of the doors and the holy man looked in. In the middle of the room was a large round table. In the middle of the table was a large pot of stew, which smelled delicious and made the holy man's mouth water. The people sitting around the table were thin and sickly. They appeared to be famished. They were holding spoons with very long handles, that were strapped to their arms and each found it possible to reach into the pot of stew and take a spoonful. But because the handle was longer than their arms, they could not get the spoons back into their mouths. The holy man shuddered at the sight of their misery and suffering. God said, 'You have seen Hell.' They went to the next room and opened the door. It was exactly the same as the first one. There was the large round table with the large pot of stew ...
