Valentines Day is around the corner....and I am going to try this....

Love cannot be defined....

Love is one of those archetypical things that cannot be defined....It can only felt, exchanged, given, and sadly, it can be denied....The loss is that of the one who denies....

We must agree first...

We are not lacking for people who want change...we are lacking on an agreement for how that change should happen...

Poets of the Fall - All the way for you

Check the sticker on fruits and vegetables if you want to know if it is GMO....

 If you want to know more about how to tell if your fruit is GMO or not, check the sticker....Article is from Diana Ellis ....

Diana Ellis...Check the sticker...

Here is a reminder, check the sticker on the fruits or veggies :
Here are the basics of what you should know:
1.If there are only four numbers in the PLU, this means that the produce was grown conventionally or “traditionally” with the use of pesticides. The last four letters of the PLU code are simply what kind of vegetable or fruit. An example is that all bananas are labeled with the code of 4011.

2.If there are five numbers in the PLU code, and the number starts with “8″, this tells you that the item is a genetically modified fruit or vegetable. Genetically modified fruits and vegetables trump being organic. So, it is impossible to eat organic produce that are grown from genetically modified seeds. A genetically engineered (GE or GMO) banana would be: 84011

3.If there are five numbers in the PLU code, and the number starts with “9″, this tells you that the produce was grown organically and is not genetically modified.  An organic banana would be: 94011

~~~Poets Of The Fall~~~

Looking for some new music that is upbeat, deep, and meaningful at the same time....Then check out The Poets Of The Fall....A band out of Finland....They have been together for 10-years, and have a substantial fan base in their home country, as well Russia, Germany, Lithuania, Switzerland, Austria...just to name a few.

Their front man, Marko Saaresto, is the lead singer and he also writes most of their lyrics....He is backed by lead guitarist Ollie Tukiainen, Markus "Captain" Kaarlonen on keyboards, with Jari Salminen on drums, Jani Snellman on bass guitar, and Jaska Makinen on rhythm guitar and back-up vocals.

I could rave on and on about this band, and how great I think they are, but I will leave up to you make your determination on the quality and worth of this band....

I ask you to please take the time to listen to some of the videos I have posted here, and check out their website....Thank you....

Witches & Witchcraft...

The question I pose is...

                 

                              Is it all poppycock?   

                                                                     

  I've seen things in my life that would say not....

Witchcraft: In historical, anthropological religious, and mythological contexts, is the use of alleged supernatural or magical powers or spells.

Witch: A practitioner of witchcraft...

Deeds: The measure Of A Person's Character

Deeds are the measure of a persons soul and character...They will always matter....They will always be remembered....

Ancient Sanskrit Wisdom

#1~ You will receive a body. You may like it or not, but it will be yours for the entire period round.

Beauty is just genetics...Character is everything...

Beautiful people do not always get what they want. It is much harder being beautiful that you may think; the idea that beauty means perfection is false. Beauty does not automatically mean that a person is shallow, anymore than ugly means that a person has depth; shallowness & depth are both a sign of character. Physical beauty is nothing more than genetics. Character is a quality based on personal choices....

Renunciation

According to Tibetan Buddhism, in order to reach liberation, one must renunciate samsara, or those attachments to the material world. However, renunciation has a different connotation than what we might have in the western world. It really does not mean that we should do without pleasures, it is actually based more upon perspective; in other words, the extreme mind, which is what we deal with most of the time, is a grasping mind, it is a craving mind, and it places an overestimated value on objects and people, which would have nothing to do with the reality of the object or the person. That is a definition of renunciation that I can live with.

7 FACTS ABOUT CRYING & TEARS :

 7 FACTS ABOUT CRYING & TEARS : 

Crying is an emotional release and if you feel the need to cry you should let it out. Here are a few facts about the act of crying. I thought they were interesting, so of course I wanted to share.

1) Emotional tears have a different chemical composition than tears caused by irritants, such as onions.

2) Crying in public was considered normal until the Industrial Revolution, when diligent unemotional workers were needed to operate machinery.

3) Men’s tear ducts are smaller than women’s tear ducts.

4) One major stress hormone released from the body via tears, prolactin, is found in much higher concentration in women's bodies than in men's. (This makes sense when you consider that the hormone is also implicated in the synthesis of breast milk).

5) Babies cry but they don't produce tears until one to three months after birth.

6) When a person cries and the first drop of tears comes from the right eye.

7) In Japan, crying for emotional release is all the rage, or so reports the Independent. The Japanese call it the "crying boom" - everyone wants a bit of sadness in their lives. Instead of going to a karaoke bar after work to wind down, businesspeople watch weepy films (called "tear films") at these crying clubs. There is also a huge demand for sad TV dramas and books, each graded by its ability to induce tears.

Screaming at an anthropomorphic god for natural disasters, disease, & death is an insane rant. Asking how can such a god can exist is just as insane, for such a god does not exist. This is it, simple enough, the universe is alive; therefore, natural disasters will occur here on planet earth just as they do in outer space. The human body gets sick, thus disease is a natural occurrence. People God did not put us here, we did. Life and death are the only true realities...

Transcendent Love...

I believe in the power of love...but not the fleeting romantic kind...but rather that type of love that we are all born with....we can see it in infants before they know right from wrong...yes from no...that time when there is only life, and death does not exist...there is no fear...that perfect love that we are all born with...that is always there but ends up forgotten...lost in a sea of fear...an unreal fear...because in truth, love is all there is...
