From Eckhart Tolle, in "A New Earth"  "If you have young children, give them help, guidance, and protection to the best of your ability, but even more important, give them space- space to be.  They come into this world through you, but they are not "yours".  The belief "I know what's best for you" may be true when they are very young, but the older they get, the less true it becomes.  The more expectations you have of how their life should unfold, the more you are in your mind instead of being present for them.  Eventually, they will make mistakes, and they will experience some form of suffering, as all humans do.  In fact, they may be mistakes only from your perspective. What to you is a mistake may be exactly what your children need to do or experience.  Give them as much help and guidance as you can, but realize that you may also at times have to allow them to make mistakes, especially as they begin to reach adu

Wednesday August 12, 09 I have been lucky to live outside of my country for the past 29 years, discovering new cultures as i live in other places than the one I used to call home. without a family, today i call my best friend a soul sister, she is always there when i have a doubt on anything. this "want to know why" calls for deep and light conversations between us, like "show and tell" for the most part! Candy has been a nurse for 30 years, she was part of the Civil Rights Movement in the 60's, she adored Martin Luther King and demonstrated in the streets in Baltimore with him. a rock, my Candy!

Candy and I are bo

Monday August 4, 09 Excerpt from the book: "The Akashic Records" If what you are thinking at this moment happens for some reason to be especially meaningful to you, if it creates a lifelong modification of your thought and action patterns, you are not the same you were a few moments ago. In the esoteric sense, your name has changed because you've become a different person. You've changed the "threads of relation" between you and all the rest of life. As that different person, your input into your Akashic Records reflects the change in you. It remains your exclusive record.

Sunday August 2, 2009 Just finished a book; "The Akashic Records" everything was interesting, but this passage struck me out: Is my Present Name in the Akashic Records? Your name in the Akashic Records is not the name conferred upon you by parents or the name of the family into which you were born Your true name is what you are, not who you are! Your true name, your nature, is the composite of all the electro magnetic qualities you express In this sense, among even billions of people there are no two names alike. The shades of interests and their duration, personality and its variations, soul intensity and its mental and spiritual evolvement, and thousand of other factors, determine the individuality and uniqueness of your name, or the total magnetic reality of your being, in the Records. Ralph Waldo Emerson long ago wrote, "A man is a center for nature, running out threads of relation through every thing, fluid and solid, material and elementa
