Do you think you or someone you love has an addictive personality? This may be true, but there may be an explanation, at least partially, that you’ve probably never considered before. Read on to find out the possibilities.

**This article is in no way offered to be a replacement for any traditional addiction rehabilitation or treatment that you may be seeking. Please use this information in addition to any programs that you are currently involved in and make choices that will be most helpful for you.

An addictive personality is now classified as a brain disease and is described as a collection of traits that predispose a person to engage in physical or psychological activity which negatively impacts quality of life. People with an addictive personality are often engaged with several additions, but what about those of us who have just one or two? Maybe we’re addicted to things that aren’t seen as particularly harmful by the general population. Like TV or drama! Whether it’s a daily bowl of ice cream or a daily fix from some kind of illegal drug, addictions are everywhere.

What if I told you that it’s possible that an addictive personality is caused by excess energy and moments of genius that aren’t being channeled properly? Would you laugh, or would you want to know more?

It’s quite possible that an addiction is created as a distraction; a way to distract oneself from something that seems particularly painful, difficult or impossible. Now that seems right on the money, right? But what about if we create these addictions because of emotions and feelings that we don’t even realize are right under the surface of our radar, pushing to be let free and to create and attract our lifelong desires?

I discovered a program that I find to be amazing. As soon as I heard about it bought the book immediately…within seconds. Now, I haven’t been diagnosed with ADD/ADHD, nor do I have any addictions that are considered major by the mainstream public, like alcohol, drugs or worse…(and no, I don’t even like drama). But this material did strike a chord when it promised to allow me to let loose my fire and harness my personality to help me become as successful as some of the most famous names we recognize… da Vinci, Einstein, Edison, etc.

Wow…harness my personality? I start projects that I don’t want to finish. I lose concentration when I get bored. I LOVE creating something new, but tend to lose interest when I dream up the next idea. My follow through tends to be non-existent if I’m not getting the satisfaction I’m looking for. Do you have an addictive personality, ADD/ADHD or find any of what I just said to resonate with your life?

Yes? Well, do I have something great for you! It’s called The DaVinci Method. Right on the front page of the website is a little quiz that will determine if you possess a DaVinci type personality. If you do, or if you have ADHD, need help with addiction, or just want to be better at what you do, you absolutely must check out this program. I’ve only read the book and I learned a ton about how to take charge of my gifts and focus them into doing what I love, sharing them with the world and ignoring the crazy distractions and addictions that I have created in my life.  This is a whole new concept, but every word was breathtaking, refreshing and provided me with a great deal of relief. There are other people out there who face the same issues as me (some on a much higher level) and there’s an answer.

It’s in the DaVinci Method. Go check it out and please let me know what you think. Did this help with your addiction? Do you better understand your addictive personality or why you can’t focus? Have you tried the Davinci Method? Tell me about it.

Half empty, or half full? What's your perspective?

Is the glass half empty or half full?

That’s one of those questions we’ve all heard. Maybe we laugh as we discuss the answer amongst friends. But once the comedy ends, we drink whatever half is left in the glass and we move on, without another thought about the underlying depth of this contemplation.

The paradox is that the glass is both half full and half empty, simultaneously. Depending upon the day, your mood or your life experiences, you’ll have a tendency to answer accordingly. It will be what it is for you, and you’ll likely stick to it. This is where perspective comes into play. Perspective is one of the single most important determinants of how our lives will unfold, and the kicker is that we, alone are in 100% control of how the entire thing turns out.

There are two sides to every story. Really, there are a million. There are so many different ways to look at and feel about everything that is. No matter how we think, react, are… we are never wrong, and we are never right. We are simply carrying about, in control or out of it, unfolding our lives as the events surface. How many of us are aware that we have any control in our lives? How many of us feel confident enough to take advantage of this power? How many of us are free enough from fear, guilt and confusion to believe that we can turn any unfortunate event into something splended, fulfilling and joyful? How many of us believe we deserve such a beautiful gift?

Changing your overall perspective of life is not only fulfilling and attractive to the Universe and it’s gifts, but it is also a process. It doesn’t take hard work, but it does require diligence. The first step is to become aware, and if you have read thus far, you can check that off the list. Awareness never goes away once it’s received. You cannot ‘backslide’ from awareness. You can temporarily misplace the information somewhere in a boggled mind, but you can never unlearn a gem of wisdom that has been placed before you.

The next step is to pay attention to your habitual thinking. This is tricky since it’s almost as if we have to catch ourselves being ourselves. You must literally see yourself in the third person and objectively assess each of your thoughts. The best way to go about this is to become aware of your feelings. If something doesn’t feel good, find out why. Nothing is external. There are ways to view circumstances that seem terrible with a light heart and a keen eye for knowledge. Dissect all bad feelings to get to the root of why something is bothering you, and then figure out how to change your perspective.

Let’s use traffic as an example. Most of us hate sitting in traffic. Why? It may be hot outside, it may be cold. We may be late for an appointment. We may have a long list of things to do and we’re impatient with all those cars in front of us. Sitting in traffic is actually a wonderful opportunity to have some ‘us’ time. If there are a million cars in front of you, there’s not a darn thing you can do about it. Turn on the radio and sing. Turn off the radio and enjoy the sunshine. Look around you and notice the beautiful birds, architecture, clouds and scenery that you usually miss as you speed by. Admire that 1968 Mustang next to you on the road.

Get to know yourself.

Figure out why you’re huffing and puffing over something that you can’t change. Are you feeling guilt for being late? Are you tense because you’ve got too many things to do? Notice those feelings, breathe and then relax. Find a new focal point. Focus on something that feels good.

This example, in a nutshell, is how you may always go about ridding yourself of all feelings that aren’t nice. You always have a choice to feel good or feel bad. No one can change these feelings for you. No matter how your kids act, what the weather report says or how little money you’re bringing into your life, you can always decide to focus on that which is good and plentiful.

Make this a new habit. Once this process becomes second nature, you’ll notice all the good things that follow. Magic will begin to happen in your life and you’ll wonder how you missed something so simple for all these years. It’s a journey. It’s your movie. It’s your life. Be the shining star and pass on the goodness.

High Fever Natural Remedies

A fever is the body’s natural way of eliminating bacteria and infections. An elevated temperature is created because the body knows that these types of organisms cannot ‘take the heat’, so to speak. People generally become alarmed, especially when children have a fever. If we examine the idea that the immune system is the body’s natural defense against infection, and if it hasn’t been hindered by overuse of antibiotics in the past, it will do the best job possible at fighting off sickness and disease.

Despite the fact that a fever has a specific purpose and place in healing of the body, sometimes we may wish to bring down a fever, even if only slightly. When a fever gets too high, there are several consequences that may result. If you or your child are experiencing hallucinations or dehydration as a result of high fever, you may want to consult a physician. If you’re more interested in calming the patient and getting to the root of the issues, there are several natural remedies for bringing down a fever and leading to a better chance for rapid healing.

Touch is one of the most important things to include in your natural healing remedies for fever. The body is made up of energy which has a particular and constant flow. When this flow is interrupted by sickness, it’s important to try and get things back in order. Especially for a child, touch will not only help to get energy properly flowing again, but it will also calm and soothe the sick patient. This will permit him or her to feel more comfortable and safe, thus allowing the immune system and other functions of the body to focus on healing, rather than stress and frenzy.

There are many herbs and natural plants or seeds that can help reduce high fever. Drinking herbal teas with thyme, linden flowers and chamomile may be especially helpful natural remedies. You’ll also want to make sure to drink plenty of water and fruit juice. Remember, most of the fruit juice on the shelves at the grocery store is not really juice. When sick with a high fever, you’re looking for 100% natural with no sugars, sodium or high fructose corn syrup. The vitamins and minerals that can be obtained by drinking beet or carrot juice will help significantly. For children who may not agree to tea or beet juice, a tepid bath with added herbs or a cool compress will help soothe and bring down the fever. Many people report that placing an onion or potato around the wrist or the heel helps lower body temperature as well, and engaging in such behavior will likely create some humor that may lighten the mood!

Remember to always keep on loose clothing so that the fever can breathe. Try to avoid solid foods and don’t use alcohol as a rub down or addition to the bathtub, as it can actually do more harm than good, especially for kids. Try not to become frantic over a high fever as that type of energy can lead yourself or your patient to an even more restless state. Remain calm, give a fever a couple days and let it run its course. If fever is associated with a stiff neck, severe hallucinations or rises about 105 degrees for adults, and high fever natural remedies don’t seem to be working, a doctor’s appointment may become necessary.

Use nature or visualizations to help balance the mind, body and spirit

Balancing of mind, body and spirit has significant benefits in everyday life. This balance can be achieved in a number of ways, and there are several simple changes that can be made immediately to begin feeling the positive impact. Awareness of your current standpoint is vital to the experience and can help give you some idea of how you operate and where to begin to achieve the necessary balance.

What Feelings Are You Choosing?
Our feelings are a choice. It may not feel that way when we are experiencing unfortunate circumstances, but the simple fact is that there are many ways to feel about a given situation. Blessings in disguise, for example, occur everyday in our lives. It seems simpler to blame exterior circumstances for what is happening to us, but when we choose to release negative feelings or find a more positive way to view any experience, it helps to create this balance of mind, body and spirit. Positive feelings weigh less, giving us more energy, vibrance and focus. When these are in place, nice and happy experiences seem to become more frequent.

Who is Making Contributions to Your Life?
What kinds of people are contributing to your current conditions. While it is fully your responsibility to choose appropriate feelings, this is much easier to do when you are surrounded by supportive and uplifting people. Balance of mind, body and spirit can be much more easily achieved when you can laugh and love more easily and without effort. If you are surrounded by people who complain, or if you complain yourself, check this behavior and begin to network with people who make it a habit to be positive. These people may seem annoying to someone who’s used to living a reality of unfortunate circumstances, but the more you realize how much easier this way of life is, the more attractive this lifestyle will become.

Where’s All the Fun?
Do you have any fun? It is vital and essential and mandatory that you find a way to incorporate some fun into your life; on a daily basis! The excuse that there isn’t enough time to do the things you want to do is simply not true. In fact, having fun and releasing stress will give you the benefit of more time in a day. Time is relative anyway, and the addition of events which make you feel joy, laughter, peace, love or freedom will enhance the balance of body, mind and spirit and keep you more focused and efficient for the tasks that you are less emotionally connected to.

Release Stress
Meditation is one of the most effective ways to release stress and find that balance for your entire being. Your physical well-being, emotional sanity and spiritual gwell-being all depend upon a balance. Meditation can be achieved almost anywhere at almost anytime. A ritualistic perspective is not necessary. Whenever you have a few moments, like sitting in traffic, washing dishes or waiting for someone, you can engage in a few moments of meditation. Become acutely aware of each thought as it enters your mind, and then practice ways to let it go, let it pass and let it fly. This practice takes some getting used to, and will become an extremely important and effective tool for releasing stress, remaining calm, feeling joy and recognizing the harmony in all people, circumstances and events around you, whether seemingly good or bad.

Live, laugh and love in peace, joy and harmony.

Do you dare to go barefoot?

Foot odor can be embarrassing and difficult to cure. With the expansion of awareness of the potential toxicity and long-term side effects of traditional medications for any disease or infection, including foot odor, natural remedies are becoming popular and mainstream. Foot odor natural remedies are easy and inexpensive to make right at home, or they can be purchased at local health food stores and vitamin shops.

Get Rid of That Smell, the Natural Way!
Long-term use of harsh chemicals can lead to all sorts of toxic situations for the body. The feet are no exception to this rule. This can be avoided by purchasing foot odor natural remedies, or using ingredients found in your cupboards, for mixing one yourself. The use of essential oils with anti-fungal properties, mixed with some sweet-smelling oils can really make a difference in ridding bacteria and fungus which contributes to that horrible smell.

Natural Recipe Using Essential Oils
A great natural recipe for eliminating foot odor is the mixture of certain essential oils with distilled water and other non-toxic substances. Mix 1 cup of distilled water with ¼ of witch hazel. Add about 7 drops of tea tree oil, which contains anti-fungal properties, and an additional 3 to 4 drops of an additional essential oil of your choice. Sage and geranium oil also have anti-fungal properties, while oils like lavender and rose have a wonderful scent. This solution can be sprayed directly on your feet, and inside your shoes as often as you like.

Baking soda not only rids the awful smell, but also helps to cut down on bacteria. Sprinkle some baking soda in your shoes at night, and add a crumpled ball of newspaper to collect moisture. Tea and vinegar washes can also be made into a foot soak for a great and natural acidic foot bath. Bring tea to a boil, or heat vinegar as an alternative, and once it’s cooled, pour it into a deep dish and soak your feet for at least 20 minutes.

Another fantastic article that I came across today. There’s not much to be said. Camille puts it all down in terms that make sense. You have control and it’s about time you figured that out! If you’re running every day as a part of the rat race, and you’re at least aware of that much, this article may give you a boost to keep going in your search for yourself. Read on…
__________________________________________

The Myth About Control ~ Who Controls What?

It doesn’t really matter where you grew up or how you were schooled. It’s likely you were told, over and over, that the world “is what it is” and your job was to find a way to fit in, do something productive, and take what you got. Or maybe, if you’re one of the “luckier” ones, you were told that with a little hard work, the world could be yours. But, without question, unless you were born a Hilton or a Rockefeller, you had to do your part. No free ride. No Easy Street.

So there we were in all our naive glory, enthusiastic and ready to do whatever it took to live the dream. We were armed with an education and a sense of determination. Maybe we even had a hand up because we “knew” someone. We got our degrees (or not!) and set out into the world to make our mark. And then…

What “they” call “reality” sets in. That college education doesn’t necessarily get you the job. And if it does, it’s not what you thought. Or the pay sucks. Or the hours are horrendous. Or…you find out pretty quickly that this whole idea of the American Dream is just something that applied to the immigrants from the early 20th century. Not so much anymore.

Pretty soon, you’re at the shrink’s office once a week, wondering why you’re so depressed, digging through old tapes to find the cause of your anxiety. You’ve got enough drugs to kill an elephant, but still you’re in utter despair. Why am I so unhappy? What’s wrong with ME? You wander through your day, like the good little robot you were trained to be, hoping against hope that “one day” it will all change.

And then…

You wake up in the middle of the night, covered in sweat, your heart palpitating, and your mind a blur of thoughts that won’t clear. You have no idea what’s just happened or why you’ve woken up in such a state…but you know, somehow, it’s big. REALLY big. So you get out of bed and splash water on your face. You go sit by a window and you try to remember what it was that woke you up. You sit there, waiting for your heart to resume it’s normal operating procedure…and get your breathing back to some semblance of regularity.

And then…

It hits you. That thing that woke you up so furiously was YOU. It was YOU talking to you. It was that beautiful, unlimited Spirit that IS you, trying to get your attention. Trying to tell you that it’s not futile. Trying to tell you that YOU have the power to create your world. Trying to tell you…HEY! IT’S YOUR WORLD! WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?

This thought settles in. You suddenly realize you have a giant grin spread across your face. Your breathing has not only ‘normalized’, it’s slowed to the rate of a hibernating bear. You are, in that moment, in a state of bliss. Because…

You get it. You finally see what they’ve been trying to hide from you all along. You see what the Universe holds for you…and you for it. You realize, without a smidgen of a doubt, that YOU ARE the Universe. Without YOU, the Universe wouldn’t be. You are the breath it breathes, the legs it walks on, the eyes it sees with… the thoughts it thinks. It’s YOUR game and you can craft it any way you wish.

This is a truth that most never learn. It’s a truth that has been a truth since we stood upright and began to work cooperatively. We are not merely physical entities with souls. We are souls in physical entities. Get the difference there? These vessels are merely vessels. They’re housing All That Is…right now, as you read, as I write these words.

You ARE the controller of your destiny. You ARE the master of the Universe….YOUR Universe. There is no one else who has any say-so over what happens to you. That is, unless you allow it. Otherwise, it’s ALL YOU. And the moment you can wrap your pretty little head around THAT, is the moment your world will change faster than you can say ‘YES’.

Yes.

It really is that simple.

Positive affirmations can make changes at a cellular level.

Positive affirmations may seem like a bunch of words that sound good in theory, but how are they supposed to make a difference when we live in a world filled with negative energy? We turn on the news and it’s bad. We get into traffic and we almost get killed by raging drivers, or we become angry ourselves. We are up in arms over healthcare, government, and religion. We hate our jobs, our marriages are failing and our kids don’t listen. What good can a bunch of words labeled ‘positive affirmations’ do for us?

You’ll be surprised if you decide you have nothing to lose and try out this little exercise.

When a statement of purpose is recorded, in writing, either in a text document or on a notepad, it becomes powerful. Realize that it’s a creation. It’s something that wasn’t there before, but now has existence. It’s matter created from a thought. If you have the ability to read between the lines here, a big lightbulb should be going off.

Even more powerful is the spoken word. Using positive affirmations as a daily mantra will transform your physical and emotional being. Stating words that bring about a general feel-good sensation will lift negative emotions out of the way almost instantaneously. Repeating them daily will begin a change at the cellular level of your body. Continuing this repetition of positive affirmations will create a new habit of bringing about joy into your life by rerouting old message waves in the brain. It’s scientific, my friends… much bigger than mumbo jumbo.

[amazon-carrousel height="200" width="600"]3f298d8c-9aec-4bfe-85a0-9dfa09014509[/amazon-carrousel]It’s always possible to reach for a feeling that’s better than the one you’re currently experiencing. Positive affirmations can help with this. Even if you feel pretty good, making positive statements can make you feel even better. Wouldn’t you like to feel bliss and joy as much as possible? It can be done. If you’re sick of feeling sad, angry, disappointed, irritated, overwhelmed or lonely, find a great affirmation and practice changing that feeling.

If you’re sensitive to the sensations of your body, you’ll notice the flutter or energy surge when you say something powerful and positive. Look around for some positive affirmations that work well for your life, or write down some of your own. I will include a short list at the end of this post.

Make it a habit to recite your powerful statements at least twice a day. You can choose general positive affirmations for joy and happiness, or pick specific statements that pinpoint a problem you may be having in your life.

If you have a problem with emotional eating, or want to lose weight:
~I am now at peace with my body, and I am feeling healthy.
~I crave only foods which are healthy for my mind, body and spirit.
~Losing weight is easy and effortless.

If you are having problems with relationships:
~I am now creating joy and love in all my relationships.
~I attract healthy and loving relationships.
~I feel compassion and love towards myself and others.

If you are having problems with depression:
~Today is filled with joy, peace and happiness.
~I feel powerful, strong and creative today.
~My life is now magical. I see evidence of joy and light.

These are only a few short examples of millions of positive affirmations that can be incorporated into your days. Once you understand the power of positive thinking, you’ll begin to see results that are magical, and you’ll begin to attract only good feelings.

Peace, joy and light,
Jeannie

What's the next evolutionary step?

It is my belief, and the belief of many others, that we are in the midst of embarking on our next evolutionary step. Many of us are feeling the pull, the changes, the discomfort. Others haven’t noticed. Either way, its happening whether we like it or not, whether we know about it or not. Expansion of awareness is key to leaving behind the stressful conditions we find ourselves in, and finding peace to evolve freely with the universe and all of mankind. We are heading for peace on earth!

The following article tackles a complicated subject and brings it to a simple point. We must begin to increase our self awareness and allow the universe to lead us forward through this next evolutionary step. I am excited for the upcoming book and hope you enjoy reading this information as much as I did.

Your Evolutionary Potential – How To Be In Step

By E. Smith

Within everyone is the capacity to be a powerful center for change… vast sweeping change. Not by changing one self, but by stepping into one’s evolutionary potential to become change.

“We are not separate from our environment.” Everything, including us, in spiritual and physical form is simply a part of the universal evolving ecology. All that is needed for us to be in our potential is simply to come into step with evolution – to simply become what is happening and changing. By doing so we are able to flow peacefully within the river of the changing landscape and see clearly how to interact with life. This frees up enormous energy and vitality to be channeled into life purpose and meaning.

We have lived in an age of evolutionary contradiction in which everything has continued to evolve – yet humanity has invested their happiness and security into institutions for stability and predictability as if they were insulated from change. As long as these institutions have held, people have felt powerful and in control of their circumstances.

But these institutions; banking, religion, business, education, finance, government and marriage were built as permanent fixtures on the ever-shifting sands of evolution itself. Hence, they have become weathered and weakened like a crumbling sidewalk, causing people to feel unsettled and out of sync.

What is happening right now cannot be understood by the human mind – but one thing is clear: The rules we created to live our lives by are changing – even disintegrating. What used to work so well, does not any more – and may become obsolete in the near future. For evolution is about continued adaptation – and we must come into alignment with what wants to happen – rather than what we want to happen.

In a world that has enough technology, food, and money – and within an environment that is becoming increasingly fragile, evolution is simply responding in the only way it knows how. Evolution is quickening its pace and guiding us through a broad base transition to set aside our individual needs to become more compassionate to hold a higher, more inclusive vision for ourselves and therefore, the planet.

We are each being tapped on the shoulder – being asked to live with a new sense of awareness and interconnectedness. And it is time to start relying on our intuition and feelings in ways that we could not have done before. We are being asked to experience life through the heart and answer the call as we feel it deep inside for self-reliance, balance, and purposeful living.

The small reward is that we can quickly come into harmony with what wants to happen for our lives to be in our human potential. The larger reward is that we each become a powerful center for change that impacts the people around us as they tap into our evolutionary state and then their potential. This adds velocity and thrust to the global transition of becoming a more heart-centered, and therefore sustainable planet.

There are Seven Evolutionary Guidelines that facilitate the transition to becoming centered in the heart.

1) Allow Life To Come To You, And Act From Intuitive Feelings.

2) What You Need To Evolve Shows Up Perfectly As You Are In Step With Evolution

3) Be Light. Light Is Light. Lightness Spreads Light.

4) Be In The Silence. Silence Is The Doorway. Become A Noise Reducer.

5) Simplicity Frees Energy. Simplify Everything. So Purity Can Work With Purity.

6) Rapid Acceleration Occurs When People Get Into Evolutionary Flow Together.

7) Dive Into The Mystery. Into Not Knowing And Become What Wants To Happen

These evolutionary guidelines are just that – guidelines. They show us how to be in step with our evolution and therefore our potential. They hold no power over anyone. They are simply suggestions for where and how to interact with what is happening in a much more efficient and therefore self-reliant way. The immediate impact is that you can simply follow the guidelines to be in step with what is wanted for your life – saving valuable energy and vitality for creating what is really important to you and the people around you.

All of us are evolving – there is not anything we can do about that. However, when we come into step with evolution, we enter a slipstream of energy that fundamentally changes how we interact with life, moment-to-moment and day-to-day.

The result of being in step is a heightened state of awareness and the ability to be more centered and joyful regardless of our life circumstances. We gain the ability to channel our energy into life purpose and service effortlessly. We are connected to magic, flow and Grace. Being in step with evolution is like the difference between riding a steam locomotive and a bullet train. Both are heading in the same direction, but everyone who can, rides a speeding train.

About the Author: E is an Evolutionary Guide. He shares Evolutionary Guidelines and heart-centering practices with those who desire to be in step with their highest potential. His next book, “The Evolutionary Guidebook” is scheduled for release in early 2010.

Does time really go anywhere?

I see so many people commenting on Facebook and elsewhere about time, and lack of it.

“Where does the time go?”

“Come on, Friday”

“I can’t wait until Christmas is over!”

That last one tends to get so much support from friends and family. So many people are being pulled through the Christmas holiday by a misconception that has been planted in their heads, and filled with guilt and resentment. “We’ve gotta battle the crowds. We’ve gotta buy everyone gifts. Where IS the time GOING???”

How are so many of us missing the point? Now, I’ve done some research on the history behind the ‘reason for the season’, so I’m not interested in arguing about fact vs. custom. What I am interested in saying is that no matter what season it is, we are missing the point!!!

What’s the big rush? How much will things really change for you once Christmas is over? Won’t there be something else to rush to? Dance classes, kitchen duty, WORK?! You can’t wait for Friday, but then spend all weekend cleaning up a house and yelling at those who dirtied it, so you can waste a weekend, too? Oops…and there’s Monday again. Coming right around the corner. At what point do we pull off the blinders and realize that time isn’t real? Time is something we’ve constructed, likely for a valid reason to begin with, but now it’s been misused, abused and turned into the enemy.

What is the difference between tomorrow and today? Most of us are in a rut anyway. We do the same things and cultivate the same habits over and over and over. The only way tomorrow will ever be different from today is if we are genuinely looking within and paying attention to the whole truth inside ourselves. At that point we grow rapidly as human beings and are able to wake up to a whole new day, each and ever day.

But beyond that, time is an illusion. There is no tomorrow. There is only today and today is a krazillion years long. And guess what. We have that ‘time’ all the time! Each of us has all the time in the world because right now is always in our pockets, in our schedules and in our presence. Is this starting to make sense? Where are you rushing to get to? You’ll never get anywhere but the present moment. No matter how fast you go, how grumpy you get, or how loudly you plead. Forget about tomorrow. Forget about getting through Christmas, or the weekend, or a busy week. Be there, right where you are, right now. Cause you can’t be anywhere else. It’s never going to happen. Let go of the misery you create for yourself and just allow everything to be what it is.

And for the love of peace and harmony….HAVE A MERRY CHRISTMAS…even if you don’t celebrate it. It’s a day. It’s already come and it’s already gone, for eternity. It’s a slot in time reserved for merriment and good tidings, but shouldn’t every slot in time be filled with those things? Who’s with me? Let’s start spreading joy right now, and stop being concerned with a tomorrow that doesn’t exist.
