Dear Friends, We know the song, Some may even know the words by heart....My interest is ARE WE THE WORDS TO THE SONG? Do we strive each day, or do we make excuses for ourselves, to lash out, to walk by the one in need. Do we stop to ask if we can help, do we give when and where we can, Do we service the soup lines, Do we vote as we should when and where voting is available?
Are we doing all that we can each and every day. Is it on our "to do someday lists".....Are we active in the song… Continue
Certain people get to go through life as if they deserve more
They seem to have all that anyone could want but keep score
They want their taxes lowered and talk about trickle down
They ship their production overseas and sell it all around
When the country aches they complain about big government
When the people are in pain they plan health care decent
They live in wealthy area's were they gather to talk of life
Keeping up with the Jones is their only… Continue
Unfortunately, as stress accumulates our own health and fitness goals are often sidelined. We again place what we desire and want for ourselves back on the shelf, because our lives become over stimulated with other obligations. Beating stress is a difficult task, but we have the power and control to survive the holidays and the end of the year frenzy by making just a few changes in our own habits and ways of thinking.
Stress is defined as anything that stimulates you and increases… Continue

Women, Universal Responsibility and the Healing of Nations
Rene Wadlow*
We should begin to develop from the level of the individual through that of society to the world at large, what I call a sense of universal responsibility: a deep respect for every living being who lives on this one small planet and calls it home. The Dalai Lama
On 31 October 2002, the UN Security Council adopted unanimously Resolution 1325 urging “Member States to ensure increased representation… Continue

I have been watching the articles and the comments fly about the fact that President Barack Obama received the Nobel Peace Prize. There are many people who are skeptical about it and think he was awarded it undeservedly so. What I think many of the critics don’t understand is that this is actually one of the trademarks of the Nobel Peace Prize. That is, if you look over the Nobel Peace Prize and who it has been awarded to – it has a… Continue
This mosque is hard to be noticed since it is located next to one of the greatest and most influential mosques of Egypt, the Azhar Mosque. However, paying attention to its design, the Mosque of Abu El Dahab is a unique model of the Ottoman architecture. Moreover, the builder of the mosque has a rather exciting story.
The builder of the mosque is the Amir… Continue
Will the time EVER COME
When mankind Will help all NOT just some
Disasters happening here and there
It’s about time to show we care.
Some show with money that they care
And yes that’s one way to share
But will it take away the fears
SUFFERING, AGONY AND TEARS
Can we not share with them a PRAYER or two
After all it’s really the least we could do
Offer now to work hand in hand glove in glove
But whatever you do, do it with… Continue

"It wasn’t until the doorway was opened and I fell into the abyss of unknowing, met my undoing, faced the root fear of non-being, and slowly emerged from this profound process of awakening, that I recognized what I had sensed and had been expressing in my life all along: We are already That for which we seek..

Just as treasures are uncovered from the earth, so virtue appears from good deeds, and wisdom appears from a pure and peaceful mind. To walk safely through the maze of human life, one needs the light of wisdom and the guidance of virtue.

2012 Overview
December 21 is not the critical event in 2012, June 4±2 is much more stressful.
Winter Solstice
On Dec 21, the Sun is conjunct a line which was defined by the Astronomical Union in 1958 to be the Galactic Equator.
