A simple step

We (or at least a lot of us) have heard of the law of attraction and the book and film called The Secret - it's interesting stuff... it got me thinking about the amount of time I (and my closest friend) spend playing on PC games and Internet games like Farmville (which recently won an award as a social gaming site) and the fact that the games offer us a means of creating a new, virtual reality for ourselves. They allow us to dream and to form a reality around those dreams - pretty cool stuff. The question I have been pondering from a negative angle, was whether or not these 'virtual realities' that we create could act as a means of blocking us from achieving our desires. For example, if we're playing Sims and creating a new home for our Sims family, based around our personal desires for a new home, does this mean that the Universe will see us as having achieved that desire - the new home has after all manifested itself, albeit in a virtual fashion.. Thinking about i...

Good morning! The most powerful thing you can do (and it is very powerful) to change the world is to  change your own beliefs about the nature of life, people and reality to something more positive  .. and begin to act accordingly. Success is a choice.. and it is possible to make friends with adversity and your misfortunes. Bear in mind that sometimes it doesn't take much to put things right - take for example a little water on a small plant to help it grow Paragon in Robin Hobbs' Liveships trilogy states .. "long or short, if you worry about every step of a journey you will divide it into endless pieces - any one of which may defeat you. Look only to the end".."teach yourself to believe you will succeed. Be now what you must be to succeed at the end of your journey, and when the end comes, you will find it is just another beginning"

Consider this - there is only one moment, that is now, and that you are an eternal spirit. Consider the things in your life that repeat themselves, or appear to - deja vu is one example, another are the things that happen to us, the reality that we create for ourselves - the 'lessons' we learn through experiences that often appear uncannily similar from one year to the next, we all appear often cycle through them more than once, as that is part of a learning process .. then let go of the belief that 'time'exists - no past, no future, just now - what is happening is that we are constantly changing the past through interracting with our reality , which after all is made up of matter that is constantly in motion, our perception is that we are travelling through time, that there is a past and a future ... wel maybe there isn't as such, sure our physical state changes as we get older, - detach yourself from that physical state and consider what you doing now - you are le...

We all often reflect on what is going on in our lives and the lives of others. We sometimes change our course in the light of what we see in others actions and words. I guess there is always a danger that we reflect and end up thinking too much about stuff. I do. A couple of very old commentaries have helped me with this.... What happened to you should have happened because it did…and no wishing can make it any different. Wishing reality to be different from what it is is like teaching a cat to bark. Learn to wish that everything should come to pass exactly as it does Catch u

We all feel negative sometimes, think about how many of these are related to - things not going quite as planned - stuff happening that is out of our control - being unfairly criticized about something - feeling scared about the future - others being negative around us, seeing the down side.. the interesting thing is that we all have the opportunity to see things exactly as we wish. It is our choice. There really is no excuse to be negative. Turning the negative into positive is simple, if you can sit back and look at things in a different light. Everything happens for a reason...and there is nothing wrong with that, is there.. Practising tolerance helps too, as sometimes people will be shifting from one state of mind to another - rather than being negative, that can sometimes be the impression, rather than the reality..
