CM's Final Posts: You Can Fill the Space
Eighteen years ago, I wrote an article for a magazine that got me called in for a taped interview with a Fox TV morning news anchor. Being an effective communicator and a skillful public speaker was a dream of mine at the time. And still is.
After some 30 minutes of prep with the station's hair-and-

Websites to Visit, Blogs to Read
Here are some blogs and websites I like. It's not a complete list. But it's a start.
The first is called New Moon Journal and it is written by Michele Bailey-Lessirard, a life coach, collage artist, and "shamanic astrologer." On the opening page of her site, you'll find a little slide show of her am

Still Posted at My Desk
"Take off from here. And don't be so earnest,
let others wear the sackcloth and the ashes.
Let go, let fly, forget.
You've listened long enough. Now strike your note."

Don't Pierce Your Belly Button
I caught the following conversation between two pretty women in the ladies' room of a Manhattan restaurant. One of the women was pregnant. And she said, "So my acupuncturist made me take the ring out of my belly button."
"Really?" her friend exclaimed.
"Yeah, he said, 'Let's give this baby a chance.

'I Will Survive'
You may have been wondering how Tammy Faye Messner, who died at age 65 several days ago, became a gay icon in the goddess tradition of Lady Di, Marilyn Monroe and Judy Garland. Slate.com's "Explainer" explains it all here.
For a long-winded but fascinating description of gay mythologies and mother e

I just read the little saying. I have been struggling trying to figure out on what to do as in going to school, go back to work , or wait on trying to get my disability. I have diabetic neuropathy , digenative arthritis, really bad anxiety, and currently diagnosed with my disorder of diabetic neuropathy. I am in pain all the time and there is no comfort. I am more depressed because , I am 30 yrs. old and I have a son who is 7 yrs. old and I should be enjoying spending time doing the fun things with my son. I haven’t found out yet rather I am going to get disability or not; and it is driving me nuts. I know it is hard to not worry about the problems that me or any one of us face. I do believe that there is a reason for everything that happens , yes god knows our past, present , and future. I sometimes wish I knew the answers though at times. I guess we all have to let god handle what we can not control cause after all he is the one that can make things happen. Sometimes unanswered prayers are answered in different ways, I know I am meant to be a mother and a loving person, and trying to be the best christian as god would want me to be. I know I will find the answer soon. God Bless everyone.

I love this beautiful writing by Ramana Maharshi. Reading it tis morning has given me more strength to pass through today and the days ahead.I am sending it to my children in the hopes that they too will cherish these words. With an empty mind keep searching for the lotus feet of the great mother.

good luck ! The times we feel the loneliest, the most forgotten by our each personnel god ,those are the times I belive the creators holding us in his hands . I fallow the jesus way not the christian way. Our saying is “if theres not love in it we want no part of it .”Blessing to you and yours.

This reminds me of St. Augustines passage, “You have made us for yourself, O Lord, and our heart is restless until it rests in you.” It changed my life, and Thank you for this beautiful passage.

Usually when my personal energy level and motivation are at the lowest point and am in need of inspiration, it shows up in the most unexpected places, and here it is! “And Finally, This” is a beautiful and gentle reminder that belief, faith and surrender to “HIS” will is the way to happiness. Seeking anything outside of this will create unpleasantness, such as anxiety, strife, worry and confusion.
I will share this with all in my circle of friends so they may be enlightened.

God does not determine our future, we do this is why he gave us a freewill so we can choose whether to go to him or not.
In fact he gave us 7 natural laws when he created us.
1. freewill
2. cause and effect
3. resonance (attraction)
4 service
5 forgiveness
6 unconditional love to live the above laws
7 transmutation (the result of how we live the previous 6 laws)
