Co-dependence Means Always Having to Say You're Sorry!

You would never consider your self an addict. You could quit anytime, right? What am I talking about? No, I am not talking about alcohol or drugs or even gambling. I am talking about co-dependent relationships. CAN you quit anytime? Probably not. Statistics have proven that some people can only exist at their best in a symbiotic relationship where one person feeds off of the other. This is being co-dependent. It is not healthy to anyone to live in a relationship like this but many people today do not know that; they don't even realize their relationship is like that.

Masterminds and Their Groups

Have you ever wondered about all those big mastermind groups that are always being talked about in the news and on the talk shows? A Mastermind group comes together around a central thought. They also have control issues; they often want to control the world (or at least their little portion of it). Oh, wait, did you think I was talking about groups that had high IQ's or that wanted to LEARN? Oh, heck no. I was talking about MASTERMIND GROUPS! Bilderberg; TriLateral Commission; those people.

Questions and Conspiracies

I am standing here where once stood the mighty Twin Towers that were demolished on 9/11. People still maintain that there was an implosion at least 1 minute prior to the first plane hitting the buildings. These people were all called to testify at the 9/11 Commission Hearings. Others have sworn that explosive matter was found in the rubble. Conspiracies abound, of course. Everything that has ever happened that is of interest and has no clear answer. Why did building 7 collapse? No plane hit that building; was it imploded from within? Who would have done such a horrible thing?

Creative Writing- How I Use My Gifts to Help Others Out

I have always believed that everyone has gifts. Sometimes it takes all of a person's life to figure out what those gifts are and the person doesn't get to do the work he or she was "supposed" to do. That's where Karma comes in. After all, what goes around comes around and if you don't get to do what you were put here on Earth to do; well, you just have to try again until you get it right.

12/22/12 Opening the Door to the future

Everyone has been talking about the coming date of 12/22/2012. Some people think it is the End of the World; some expect major catastrophes to happen immediately when the calendar date arrives. Spiritually, the date is of great importance. On this particular day the Winter Solstice having just occured, the sun will rise in the center of the Milky Way galaxyfor the first time in 26,000 years. The Maya have chosen to end their long count calendar on this date but this does not suggest that they expected the world to end on that date.

Family Lies; the Binding Ties

Dr. John Bradshaw has written many books about families and relationships but the best of those books was about family secrets. Family secrets can destroy you. It does not matter why they have been kept; they will eventually come back to smack you in the face.

Children Are Not Pawns in Divorce

Children Are Not Pawns Has your significant other become “de trop” (as the French like to say)? Has he or she gone outside of your relationship for anything other than a casual friendship? Have you cause to re-examine your relationship? All too often we allow ourselves to be defined by our relationships. We become XYZ’s wife, husband, mother, father, grandparent, child or friend. This takes away from how we view our self.

Predictions for 2011

Every good spiritual advisor makes predictions for the coming year. Would I be remiss if I did not? Of course; so I will. 1. The American people will stop sitting by while politicians play with their lives like Lego toys. Politicians in the next two years will discover that the Americans of today expect their elected officials to actually do what they were sent to Washington to do and NOT what THEY want to do.

What is so Different about Astrology all of a Sudden?

What’s So Different about Astrology All of a Sudden?All of a sudden there are tweets and Face Book posts about how astrology has changed and how it affects our personal horoscopes. The dates are different and that moves people from one sign to another. How on earth is this going to affect us? An astronomer named Kunkle claims that the rotation of the earth and the sun has slowly changed the signs. It is supposed to have happened over the eons. All of a sudden,the dates are totally changed. The dates for the signs have changed and a new sign has been added. November 29 – December 17.

Who Gets Saved If a Meteor Hits Earth? Conspiracy Theory

They say Man plans; God laughs. I am pretty sure it could also read Man plans; the Government laughs. I just finished watching one of my favorite shows: Jesse Ventura; conspiracy Theories. He just did a great show about the possibility of a giant asteroid or meteor hitting earth and destroying civilization as we know it.

Feng Shui: a New Age Scam or a True Philosophy?

I am not an expert in Feng Shui. I really don’t believe it is possible for a Westerner to BE an expert in Feng Shui. Feng Shui is a Chinese philosophy. It is totally Eastern in nature and, therefore, not easy to understand in our minds.

You Probably Don't Know jack, Either.

I just saw “you don’t know Jack” which is the televised biography of Dr Jack Kervorkian., sometimes called Dr. Death. It is a difficult movie to watch but the subject matter, the right to die, is very important. Why is it that a family can be allowed to decide to “pull the plug” on a comatose patient/loved one and yet the loved one him/her self cannot decide when it is time to stop the suffering? This is a question that no one can answer. No one has the right to decide if a person should be able to end his/her suffering with dignity.

Everything Changes With Time.

The longer I live the more I realize that things are always changing around us; whether or not we want to admit it. We don’t like change. It must be in our genetic makeup to want to keep things like they are. Even my five year old grandson hates change. It’s just normal.r

What Will Happen 12/21/2012? The Change Has Already Begun

We are at the door to 12/21/2012. What will happen next? Will we open it and step through or will we, somehow, miss the whole thing? I have said in past articles that the fear mongers have used the date of the Galactic Convergence to scare humans half to death. Books are written and sold every day on how to survive the global cataclysm that is about to happen. IS something terrible going to happen to us on that date; probably not. As I have said before, some people won’t even notice any change at all.r
