			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><br /><p>Just a note in passing&#8230;</p>
<p>Over the past 15 years one of my Husband&#8217;s fascinations has been magnets.  I&#8217;ve done whatever I could to support his interests, however, have been totally uninterested myself.  Physics and I are strange bedfellows.  What physics accepts as &#8220;laws&#8221;, I know to be a result of quantum physics.  This essentially means that using quantum physics, can change the supposed &#8220;laws of physics&#8221;.</p>
<p>Like I commented to a friend of mine, a retired physicist, &#8220;physics&#8221; is about problems where chemistry is about &#8220;solutions&#8221;.</p>
<p>The key to chemistry is understanding &#8220;attraction&#8221;.  So you can just guess what led to my study of the Law of Attraction, as it operates  in the quantum field.</p>
<p>I didn&#8217;t understand the application my Husband had been working on and didn&#8217;t EVEN want to apply my education and engineering background to try to mentally grasp it.  Forget it.  There&#8217;s a giant stop sign for me heading in that kind of direction in the form of making me *sick* trying to contemplate the math of friction, which is a relationship issue of conflict, therefore &#8220;forces&#8221;.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m not really like Tesla in that I don&#8217;t feel the same zeal when it comes to mechanical tinkering.  For that, I look to my youngest son.    It&#8217;s HIS Passion.</p>
<p>So&#8230;,</p>
<p>when over the past month I kept &#8217;seeing&#8217; something involving my Husband&#8217;s experiments, it came to me as rather *odd*.  &#8220;Odd&#8221; being the flavor my nose sniffs out the best.  I started sharing &#8216;hints&#8217; about what I was seeing.</p>
<p>I finally sat down and openly detailed what I had been seeing with my Husband last night, that the engineer in me had spent the past 3 days contemplating how to build.   Just as I had done years before, when it came to carving the pieces, I was also seeing in my &#8216;mind&#8217;s  eye&#8217;.  (I have learned through the years that these images will only GO AWAY, once I&#8217;ve figured out to make them.)  If I don&#8217;t want my focus to be constantly interrupted, I have to deal with what keeps coming up.</p>
<p>&#8220;Making money&#8221; being something this Nation has been built upon.  All it takes to &#8220;make money&#8221; is to bring a solution to a problem.   Add the Value of my Life to a natural resource and come up with a solution to a problem, many of us could use.  It&#8217;s a formula, the key being &#8220;value&#8221;, not &#8220;price&#8221;.</p>
<p>My Husband said he can&#8217;t exactly wrap his mind around the idea I have, because it is such a different view of things then the one he&#8217;s been coming from.   But he agrees, it will either work or it won&#8217;t.</p>
<p>I will only give a hint right now that if it does work, what I will have come up with is something that force would have to be applied to STOP it from producing energy, otherwise, it would just keep on producing.  And has few moving parts that would wear out.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s not based on physics.  And it&#8217;s not based on any understanding of magnetic fields as we know it.</p>
<p>(rolling my eyes)  sounds like something right up my line.  sounds like the story of my life.  &#8220;Here I go again&#8221;.</p>
<p>~sigh~</p>
<p>So I&#8217;m going off on an adventure with my Husband to build a working model&#8230;a tiny working model proving or dis-proving basic principals.</p>
<p>Ohhhh&#8230;, I&#8217;ll still be online.  I just might not be as expressive, since my juices of creativity will be coming out in another direction.  A direction that could very well result producing energy in abundance, that virtually costs nothing to produce.</p>
<p>just turn it on and it runs,</p>
<p>and runs,</p>
<p>and runs,</p>
<p>until you stop it.</p>
<p>A little while I posted that the race is on and the *new* green energy slogan of &#8220;embrace the race&#8221;.</p>
<p>Since &#8220;the outside is a reflection of the inside&#8221;,  if I&#8217;m embracing on the inside, it simply makes a lot of sense that this would come popping out of me right now.</p>
<p>The question remains&#8230;</p>
<p>Can we build it?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><br /><p>There&#8217;s enough in the media that inspires our doubts and fears, (or at least trying to) and not enough  that inspires our faith in one another.</p>
<p>So I&#8217;m going to tell a couple of remarkable stories.  They are stories of people I personally know.  As far as I know, there still alive.  And Real.</p>
<p>One fella&#8217; I&#8217;ll call &#8220;Jim&#8221; had no where to go one freezing night.  Jim was homeless.  He happened to spot a carpet on someone&#8217;s porch.  So he climbed the stairs and rolled himself up in the carpet.  Warm and cozy, he fell asleep.</p>
<p>He was awakened by the homeowner&#8230;</p>
<p>CARRYING him into the house, where a hot bath had already been prepared for him.   When he came out, there were clean clothes.  And the man fed him.  Then gave him $100  when he got up to go.</p>
<p>I know another fella&#8217;, who I&#8217;ll call &#8220;Bob&#8221;.  Bob has a companion, a friend, that I&#8217;ll call &#8220;Tim&#8221;.  Bob is blind and Tim is crippled.  And they work as a team.</p>
<p>Robbing houses.</p>
<p>Bob drives as Tim sits in the front seat next to him, telling him when stop, go, turn, etc.</p>
<p>We&#8217;re Compassionate.  We truly are.</p>
<p>And we&#8217;re ingenious, too!</p>
<p>Hope your Heart feels a little lighter!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><br /><p>Many of us have been feeling *stuck*.  Just when things seemed like they were progressing in our lives,  all of a sudden it stopped.  Just as things started looking up,  a lot of our old issues began to surface again.   Kinda&#8217; reminds of the weather where I live.   We finally started having days of sunshine and warmth, when the rains and dreary days came back again.</p>
<p>A lot of people have asked me if maybe we were in a &#8220;mercury retrograde&#8221; again?  To which I have replied &#8220;No, not this time.  This time there is another &#8220;retrograde&#8221; pattern affecting us.  This one, relates our career and business interests.&#8221;  There are a few *bugs* to be worked out before we are ready to move into our new paths.</p>
<p>We&#8217;re under the influence of an internal auditing process.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ll give an example&#8230;</p>
<p>When I started earlier this year in sending queries to literary agents,  to my utter shock and surprise, they responding to me in a matter of days, instead of weeks.  It caught me completely unprepared.  I didn&#8217;t have a &#8220;proposal&#8221; to send.  Why, I wasn&#8217;t even sure what one was at the time.</p>
<p>I did a bit of research, quickly wrote something up and sent it.  Then waited&#8230;</p>
<p>and waited&#8230;</p>
<p>and waited&#8230;</p>
<p>Originally, I was suspicious of agents selling books on &#8216;how to write a successful proposal&#8217;.  Basically, I smelled a rat.  &#8220;Buy my book to be considered.&#8221;</p>
<p>Under the influence of this auditing process, I went and did MORE research and found there were examples all over the place of &#8216;proper&#8217; formats for business proposals, being offered for FREE.  Upon reading them, all became clear.  What I had written and sent was sloppy.  No wonder I didn&#8217;t hear anything in response.  Duh&#8230;</p>
<p>I hadn&#8217;t put anything in the *correct* form.</p>
<p>*NOW* I am creating THE &#8216;proper&#8217; form for my presentation.  Going over everything with a fine toothed comb so it is polished and refined.</p>
<p>I am guiding to look at &#8220;forms&#8221; to discern where adjustments need to be made to resolve  lingering issues.  My friend {{<a href="http://secretoflife.typepad.com">simon</a>}} is experiencing aches and pains related to his physical form.  This is all part of this cycle we are in.  Our physical plane of activity is morphing.  It is coming into alignment with the Greater Reality of Spirit.</p>
<p>In a World ruled by our Personality&#8217;s, things like Ethics and Integrity don&#8217;t matter, where in a World ruled by Spirit, they are the only things that do.</p>
<p>Those of us who have tried to respond to events and experiences in our lives in a peaceful, accepting and understanding manner will find a harvest of plenty coming to our shores.     While those of us who have responded like conflicted war mongers, will find our wills blocked.</p>
<p>The energy is coming in this week that will knock us out of our stuck places.  Be AWARE we might receive messages we don&#8217;t like but instead of fighting and arguing against any such messages, receive them as blessings indicating where we need to make adjustments in our desires.</p>
<p>As a message to {{<a href="http://secretoflife.typepad.com">simon</a>}}, I *know* EVERYTHING you are experiencing, while the medical community might not know what is going on, I certainly do.  You are morphing my friend&#8230;as above, so below.  The very structure of your life is changing, just as the thought patterns of your mind are being re-wired.  Your mind, your body and your Spirit are all coming into alignment.  You are ASCENDING in consciousness my friend and displaying all the symptoms.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><br /><p>I *know* I inspire some of us to feel uncomfortable.  And I sincerely thank those of us who have had patience and compassion with me, as I fumble for words and ways to convey meaning for those of us starting to awaken and in various stages of awakening.  Unity is not easy to communicate in terms of conflict.  Unity embraces conflict but it doesn&#8217;t work the other way around.  Conflict does not embrace Unity.  It can&#8217;t.  Because it&#8217;s conflicted.  So you can imagine my dilemma.</p>
<p>I speak of Unconditional Love as a healing Power and cite our beliefs in conditional love, as the cause of all our conflict.  It takes drawing a line  to separate, in order to originally make parts.  Once we have parts, THEN we can set these parts in conflict with one another.   And that is what we have all been taught to do.  Relate &#8216;parts&#8217; in a pattern of conflict.</p>
<p>Like the way we &#8217;see&#8217; oil and water&#8230;in conflict with each other.  They just don&#8217;t mix.</p>
<p>And here I pop up and say, &#8220;Oh yes they do mix!  Perfectly in fact.  They respond to each other exactly as their nature programmed them to do.</p>
<p>Just like the rapist and his partner in victimization.  The rapist is a victim of certain attitudes of judgment and his expression is a result of it.</p>
<p>You see, it&#8217;s relating things in a way of cooperation rather then conflict that is the distinguishing characteristic of Unity.   And it is also expressing this tone that makes a lot of us feel uncomfortable.</p>
<p>I see the rapist and his &#8220;victim&#8221; as ends of the same rubber band.  And the rubber band&#8217;s name is &#8220;sex&#8221;.  The rapists&#8217; actions are born from urges beyond his control.  And his &#8220;victim&#8221; is one of us who has radiated condemnation for almost all sexual activity.  Most likely inhibited and judgmental of carnal desires.</p>
<p>Follow it along and we&#8217;d find that the rapist has been mentally and emotionally battered and beaten and abused,  by the condemnations and judgments of the uptight and sanctimonious and there we have it&#8230;.the two ends of the same rubber band.  One end goes one way from &#8220;balanced&#8221; and it causes the other end to go in the opposite direction of &#8220;balanced&#8221;.  *walla*  The Universe maintains harmony between all &#8216;parts&#8217;, unbalanced or not, all the time.</p>
<p>Unity awareness is also being at Peace with things that cause others of us to wail and moan in horror.  Unconditional Love is just the start.  Unconditional Acceptance and Unconditional Tolerance are even HARDER to anchor, ground and integrate.</p>
<p>I extend Compassion but not Sympathy and a lot of us have the two confused.  Sympathy is what us victims want; but not Compassion.  For Compassion is when we claim responsibility for our life while sympathy requires we not.</p>
<p>I extend Understanding but not necessarily agreement.  And this is where it gets *sticky*.</p>
<p>I can certainly understand conflict.  There is simply no way I can oppose it and maintain any Integrity of being.  Sure, I can say I oppose war, yet simply opposing it is the same as taking an attitude of warring upon it.   &#8216;Make war on war&#8217;.    It&#8217;s the same thing as hating haters and being prejudice against prejudice people.   These are all idiotic ideas and I *know* because I happen to have been one of the idiots that thought such things once&#8230;what seemed like long ago.</p>
<p>I can extend Understanding; I simply cannot agree to conflict just the same and, express Peace with any semblance of Power or Integrity.  A Sovereign cannot be partial.  Always embraces ALL ways.  The good and the beautiful, as well as, the bad and the ugly.</p>
<p>You see, when I was little and used to cry at the drop of a hat because I was so sensitive, I heard a song.  I guess I heard it so often I took the words to heart.    Little did I know where it would lead me or what it would lead me into doing.</p>
<p>By expressing being AT Peace,  no matter what horror, no matter what disaster happens&#8230;I make those of us who are conflicted, (and I have certainly been there)&#8230;uncomfortable.  But I won&#8217;t stop.</p>
<p>Because while many of us say we&#8217;d like there to be Peace in our World, it never has occurred to us that we&#8217;re the ones responsible for putting it there.     And therein, is the reason why I respond to life the way I do.   I&#8217;m working under Universal Law, sowing and reaping in my life.   Like the song lyrics said:</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">Let there be Peace on earth<br />
And let it begin with me.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><br /><p>In the story of the carrot and the donkey, a carrot is tied to the end of a string, which is attached to a stick protruding from the donkey&#8217;s harness.   No matter how many steps the donkey takes in pursuit of that carrot, he never gets any closer to his goal.</p>
<p>&#8220;Is a donkey the same as a jackass?&#8221; I asked my husband.  He didn&#8217;t know for sure, so I looked it up.</p>
<p>Don-key; a domestic ass; <em>equus asinus</em>.</p>
<p>&#8220;Ahhh&#8230;, &#8216;domesticated&#8217; I thought&#8230;far different then &#8216;wild&#8217; or &#8216;bad&#8217;, for sure but, most likely quite similar to &#8217;smart&#8217; and &#8216;bare&#8217;,  I guessed.  Then I looked up:</p>
<p>&#8220;Jack-ass&#8221; and it said &#8220;a male donkey&#8221;.</p>
<p>Then I began to wonder if females were called Jill-asses.  I&#8217;d never heard of a &#8216;jill-ass&#8217; but that could be a result of my own ignorance.  Aha!  females are called Jenny.  It didn&#8217;t matter anyway, Jack, Jill, Jenny&#8230;, same carrot.</p>
<p>In my story, this carrot is a *magic* carrot.  Called the Carrot of Perfection.  Merely getting a whiff of it, brings promises of becoming a Perfect Ass.</p>
<p>How do I know?</p>
<p>Because I&#8217;ve been that donkey, forever it seems, plodding after that Carrot of Perfection.</p>
<p>Then realized one day, like a real dumb-ass, that Perfection was a Quality that belonged to Divinity alone.</p>
<p>And being &#8216;human&#8217;, was about making *mistakes*&#8230;thinking outside of the box of Divinity, outside our Ever Loving Mind.    The very idea of a &#8220;Perfect Human&#8221; being a contradiction in itself; an oxymoron.  I got the &#8216;moron&#8217; part but not the &#8216;oxy&#8217;, for I saw no point&#8230;</p>
<p>It&#8217;s an empty idea, an empty promise.  Promising something when nothing is what will be delivered.  It is a tease of seduction that sends us down trails in opposite direction of the genuine desires of our Hearts.  For it is in connecting with the Divine Donkey within our Heart that we become a &#8230;</p>
<p>Wise-ass.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s not Perfection that counts, that is of worth and value, Spiritually.  It&#8217;s our ability and capacity to embrace Imperfection that counts, that is the Standard of Value and Worth.</p>
<p>&#8220;Things of Value I carry with me where  ever and when ever I go.&#8221;  No matter what kind of beast of burden I am.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><br /><p>I&#8217;ve actually sat and thought about it for the past couple of days.  {{{<a href="http://tumel.wordpress.com/">tumel</a>}}} brought something to my Awareness&#8230;</p>
<p>the difference between the perception of a circle, as in going in circles and, the perception of a spiral, ascending ever onwards.  That&#8217;s what&#8217;s happening right now.  We, Humanity, are stepping up a level on that evolutionary spiral.  It really is a great cause to CELEBRATE!!!!!!</p>
<p>But&#8230;</p>
<p>as {{<a href="http://tumel.wordpress.com/">tumel</a>}} shared with me, many of us are being &#8220;seduced by the dark side&#8221;, as Yoda would say.  <em>&#8220;Oh, to go back to &#8220;the good ole days&#8221;.</em></p>
<p>And to that I&#8217;ve got to say:</p>
<p>Bah humbug.  Go stuff it up your shorts.  There has never been a GRANDER time to be alive!!!!  We are pioneering expansions in AWARENESS.  <em>Conscious</em> Awareness.</p>
<p>There&#8217;s a new slogan:</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">&#8220;<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YCMi1xJ30g4&amp;eurl=http://earththesequel.edf.org/trailer">Embrace the race</a><a href="//www.youtube.com/v/YCMi1xJ30g4">.</a>&#8220;</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">
<p style="text-align:left;">And it&#8217;s about Energy&#8230;new energy.  Specifically, &#8220;Green Power&#8221;.  The goal is coming up with *new* renewable types of Energy.  Types that are NOT draining to resources.  And the reward is the greatest wealth possible that our World has ever seen.</p>
<p>Entrepreneurs all around the world are &#8220;embracing the race&#8221;.  There soon will be an explosion of ingenuity and inventiveness coming out of garages all over the place in the US alone.  New technologies in all sorts of areas.</p>
<p>There IS NO &#8220;energy shortage&#8221;.    There ARE shortages, however, when it comes to &#8220;old energy&#8221;.  And these shortages will continue to accelerate.  Desperation, if nothing else, fueling desires to &#8220;embrace the race&#8221;.</p>
<p>For Necessity is the <em>Mother</em> of INVENTION!</p>
<p>Inventions that have been blocked from coming into our Awareness for over 100 years.</p>
<p>Imagine after taking the plunge into materialism there would be a one of us that would desire giving up all the gadgets and toys and creature comforts?  NOOOO!!!!!!!  We&#8217;re going to have BOTH!!!!  Gadgets, toys, creature comforts, FREELY AVAILABLE ENERGY and &#8220;save the planet&#8221; at the same time.</p>
<p>Piece of cake.</p>
<p>Ohhhh, I can *hear* the Doubt.  But I *know* us as not many of us do.</p>
<p>My son often calls from college if he&#8217;s feeling anxious.  And most often it&#8217;s the result of a behavior pattern I recognize.  Do/did the same thing myself.  Often.</p>
<p>I used to let the pile of laundry pile up until it became a massive job of about 12 loads.  Then do it all at once.  &#8220;Tada!  Look at me!  Aren&#8217;t I capable!  See what feats I can accomplish?  See what mountains I can conquer?&#8221;  And my son, sometimes finds himself <em>procrastinating</em>, too&#8230;  So he calls me and I remind him of his pattern, our pattern, of doing this just to show ourselves how competent we are.</p>
<p>It has to do with motivation.  And to those of us who enjoy experiences of achievement, we often let the &#8216;problem&#8217; build,   just to increase the intensity of the excitement to truly &#8220;heroic&#8221; proportions.  The drama of it feeds our  emotional addictions <em>to</em> drama.</p>
<p>So as we watch the &#8216;news&#8217; and absorb the barrage of information being spun out, don&#8217;t &#8220;be seduced by the dark side&#8221;.  The higher the price of a barrel of oil goes, the QUICKER and the FASTER, ALL of us are going to HAVE freely available energy.</p>
<p>There NEVER HAS BEEN a &#8220;good ole days&#8221;.  So let the &#8220;old&#8221; go.</p>
<p>And embrace the race.</p>
