Depressed people

Depressed people have lots to say but have lost their "voice" to say it. Without the freedom to safely express themselves, they must depress themselves.

Blogging

The suicide rate has dropped dramatically since blogging came into vogue. It seems people who once thought about killing themselves are having a lot more fun amusing other people to death instead.

****** Breaking HUMOR ********

.

'Hello Tech Support. How can I help you?'

LADY: 'Last night my computer started making a lot of hissing noise at me so I shut it down. This morning when I turned it on it started hissing and cracking, then started smoking and a bad smell, then nothing.'

SUPPORT: 'I'll have a technician come over first thing this morning, just leave the computer just like it is, so he can find the problem and fix it, or change it out with another computer. Give me your address and phone number a the technician will be there just as soon as he can.'

When the technician got there, the woman showed him where the computer was and said what happened to it. This is what the technician found wrong.









The technician told the lady that he thought the snake must have been after her mouse!' The lady didn't think that was funny at all

Dissolving The Power of the Negative.

Negative things gain power over you when you resist them rather than accept them. The moment you accept your negative experiences they begin to dissolve of there own accord, naturally. The more you resist your negative experiences, the stronger they become until they overwhelm you. Once that happens, many people end up going to the doctor to have their feelings medicated and sedated with pills. They do this rather than allowing their negative experiences to pass out of their body, effortlessly, much like a baby passes a bad case of gas.

Negative experiences are 'benevolent teachers in disguise.' They come to teach you lessons in self-love. Once you learn the lessons, the negative experiences leave your life never to return again.

Don't take GUILT personally...

I don't take guilt personally because when I do, guilt sticks to me like glue. The only thing guilt is good for is to guarantee you that what you did to make yourself feel guilty in the first place, you will do it again.. Guilt is a vicious cycle designed to make you think there is something wrong with you. Guilt is not something God invented, it is something man invented so he could control his fellow man.

It's okay to be negative...

Resisting negative thoughts and feelings makes them persist. Instead, allow them to harmlessly pass you by like clouds in the sky and they will.

The smartest person

The smartest person in your life is you. The moment you forget who the smartest person in your life is, you begin to give your power away to others. The only way anyone can be smarter than you about your life is if they lived in your skin 24/ 7 and they do not.

Inspirational Thoughts for theDay

  • The moment you fear losing something, you have already lost it.

  • When wanting someone begins feeling bad, you are no longer wanting that person, you are pushing that person away from you.


  • Acceptance does not mean you are accepting something as fatal, terminal or forever. Acceptance means you are accepting, in the moment, 'what is.' Acceptance of 'what is' frees you up to create what will be.

Frederick. this is a good chart, however, I read a bunch of articles there, and all they did just scared me, thinking that we have to chant 2-4 hours a day at least to appease our ancestors or we all go to hell when we die, gave me shivers

Your beliefs, not there's.

There is nothing to worry about, just because the chart is good,doesn't necessarily mean their teachings are right for you..

Native American Wisdom

An elder Cherokee Native American was teaching his grandchildren about life. He said to them...

“A fight is going on inside me... it is a terrible fight and it is between two wolves. One wolf represents fear, anger, envy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority and ego.

The other stands for joy, peace, love, hope, sharing, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, friendship, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion and faith.

This same fight is going on inside you and every other person, too.”

They thought about this for a minute, and then one child asked his grandfather... “Which wolf will win?”

The old Cherokee simply replied... “The one you feed.”

From Rhonda Byrne Creator of the SECRET

A Secret Scrolls message from Rhonda Byrne
Creator of The Secret

Ask, Believe, Receive - just three simple steps to create what you want. However, very often the second step, believe, can be the most difficult one. And yet it is the greatest step you will ever take. When you master believing, you have mastered your life.

To master believing, all you have to do is tip the balance of your thoughts, words, and actions, from 'not believing' to believing. The ONLY thing that can ever get in the way of manifesting what you want, is having more thoughts of 'not believing', speaking more words of 'not believing', and taking more actions of 'not believing', than you are of believing. Base the majority of your thoughts, words, and actions in believing, and the law of attraction must obey you.

Believing contains no doubt. Believing does not waiver. Believing is absolute faith. Believing remains steadfast despite what is happening in the outside world.

Here is a story of believing that will speak to you and inspire you......... to believe.

From SFB in the Philippines:- 'My Own Daily Reminder'

When you open my cell phone, the first word that you will see pop-up on my greeting screen is "BELIEVE". I have had that word tacked up onto my computer screen, my vanity mirror, my journal - almost anywhere that I can see it. However, I have never really taken what that word means to heart. This afternoon, I know what it is like to believe.

A few days ago, I got hold of the DVD of The Secret. I had already read the book some time ago, and I wanted to watch the film. I decided to take The Secret's message to heart.

Each morning, I had been waking up and dreading going to work - the company I work for has a very stressful environment, and being there takes a lot out of me. Despite this, I would tell myself and really feel that I was excited to go to work, that it was going to be a good day, that only good things were coming my way. Doing this helped me. I would get through my days tired, but still able to laugh and feel less stressed. I also developed a more compassionate view of the people in our office who made our lives hard. I started seeing them not as monsters, but as people who hurt inside like we do. I was happy with this result - it made me feel more serene and calm and less stressed. It also started making me more productive at work, as I no longer let the tense atmosphere affect me.

But I was in for a little surprise. The Universe wanted to show me just how this process works. :-)

Each Christmas season, Starbucks gives out daily planners to its loyal customers. The planners are usually covered in real leather and are quite striking and stylish. To get one, you have to fill up a small card with 24 stickers - each sticker represents one cup of coffee bought in Starbucks. In our country, a cup of Starbucks coffee costs an average of Philippine Peso 150.00 - about the cost of one lunch and transportation to and from work. In a country where wages aren't that high, this is quite a luxury, and although I get paid a bit more than the average worker, this is a bit much for someone who has a family like me. I have tried for three years to get the stickers required, but each year I stop about midway when I start computing the cost! This year, when they started the annual promo, I got a card and wondered if I could fill it up with the required stickers.

I had worked my way into getting 18 stickers onto the card - no mean feat considering that I started collecting the stickers the day the promo started, or almost two months ago! I had scrimped and saved to get at least two stickers a week - sometimes three if I had a little extra left over. I wanted to get that planner before Christmas - my gift to myself.

With only five days left till Christmas, I wasn't sure that I could fill up the card. I was beginning to think this was going to be one of those years when I'd just watch other people lug the Starbucks planner around and wish I had one.

This morning, as I was taking a shower and just enjoying the water splashing on my face, I told myself I was getting that Starbucks planner TODAY. I didn't really know how since I still had 6 stickers to fill up. When I got up from my desk to get my coffee after lunch, I told my staff I was going to get my Starbucks planner. All the while I was thinking: "Now, how is that possible? I can't afford to buy 6 cups of coffee today."

As I stood in line, I kept staring at the planner displayed on the counter. I could feel the leather cover between my fingers and I could imagine writing on its sepia colored pages. All of a sudden I heard the barista ask the girls ahead of me if they wanted to give me their stickers, since they already had their planners and didn't want their stickers anymore. The girls said YES. I almost jumped - I had three free stickers, plus the one for the coffee I was getting made four, which meant that I only needed two more to get the planner. At that point, I was already sooooo thankful and I expressed my thanks to the three young girls who graciously gave me their stickers. (They were my three magi -- only in female form, don't you think?)

But that wasn't the end of it. It so happened that as part of Starbucks Manila's 10th year anniversary, they were giving away double stickers between the hours of 12:30 noon and 2:30 p.m. till December 25. It was 1:00 p.m. so I was getting double stickers!!!! That meant I was getting SIX stickers in all - the number I needed to get my planner!!!!! I walked out of the shop with my planner in the brown Starbucks bag, still in shock, but convinced that I had tapped into the Secret.. even if it was just for a short moment.

I instantly knew why I kept the word BELIEVE tacked in all those places. The Secret had been trying to get to me all these years through that word - I just wasn't really listening.

I have my planner on my desk now. The leather cover feels just as it did when I was imagining how it would feel when I touched it. I have told my co-workers how I got it - I told them I simply believed I was going to get it and I did.

This planner will be with me all through next year. It will be my daily reminder to BELIEVE.

(And oh - I'm already seeing the 2009 planner on a bigger desk in a corner office with a view!)

The solution to life's problems is FUN...

.
Thinking about or concentrating on your problems doesn't make them go away, it only makes them worse. Fun on the other hand relaxes the mind. Often times the answers you seek make themselves known to you while you are in that relaxed state of mind. If no answers come, by focusing on FUN , your problems will seems smaller to you, more manageable, one bite at a time. This more relaxed attitude about problem solving will allow you to spend more of your time focusing on all the ways you can have more FUN


If you are waiting to have no problems or for your life to be perfect in some way before you can have fun, you are going to miss out on lots and lots of fun...

FUN STARTS NOW..... Tomorrow you could be dead, then you will have no fun at all..

Are you depressed or in despair?

Getting what you WANT.

If you are giving 'what you want' second, third and fourth thoughts you are worried and 'worry thoughts' push away from you what you want. If you are not worried about getting what you want you don't give it a second thought and what you want shows up in your life with no effort at all... That's how the law of attraction works...

Love will solve your problems.

The only way you can make problems vanish forever is by loving them to death, literally loving them out of existence. Anything else you do keeps them in place. For reasons I cannot explain, that which you hate or dislike only grows stronger in size and power while loving those things you dislike decrease in size and power until they cease to exist at all.

Understanding Grief

Grief is an explosive release of the love and appreciation we had for the person we lost that we were unable to express to them when they were alive. Our tears of grief release us from the person we love so they can live in peace on the other side and we can live in peace on this side with them no longer being by our side.

Allowing the DIVINE..

Allowing the Divine to give us everything we want, to grant us all of our wishes is just to darn easy but that is what we really want.. The Divine will give us everything we want if we ALLOW the divine to do so. The Divine never forces its will upon us, it is we who have to allow the Divine to do its thing...and if we don't ALLOW the Divine the freedom to do its thing, it won't, not because it can't, it won't violated its law of our own free will..

Encouraging WORDS By Steve Jobs

This is the text of the Commencement address by Steve Jobs, CEO of Apple Computer and of Pixar Animation Studios, delivered on June 12, 2005.

I am honored to be with you today at your commencement from one of the finest universities in the world. I never graduated from college. Truth be told, this is the closest I've ever gotten to a college graduation. Today I want to tell you three stories from my life. That's it. No big deal. Just three stories.

The first story is about connecting the dots.

I dropped out of Reed College after the first 6 months, but then stayed around as a drop-in for another 18 months or so before I really quit. So why did I drop out?

It started before I was born. My biological mother was a young, unwed college graduate student, and she decided to put me up for adoption. She felt very strongly that I should be adopted by college graduates, so everything was all set for me to be adopted at birth by a lawyer and his wife. Except that when I popped out they decided at the last minute that they really wanted a girl. So my parents, who were on a waiting list, got a call in the middle of the night asking: "We have an unexpected baby boy; do you want him?" They said: "Of course." My biological mother later found out that my mother had never graduated from college and that my father had never graduated from high school. She refused to sign the final adoption papers. She only relented a few months later when my parents promised that I would someday go to college.

And 17 years later I did go to college. But I naively chose a college that was almost as expensive as Stanford, and all of my working-class parents' savings were being spent on my college tuition. After six months, I couldn't see the value in it. I had no idea what I wanted to do with my life and no idea how college was going to help me figure it out. And here I was spending all of the money my parents had saved their entire life. So I decided to drop out and trust that it would all work out OK. It was pretty scary at the time, but looking back it was one of the best decisions I ever made. The minute I dropped out I could stop taking the required classes that didn't interest me, and begin dropping in on the ones that looked interesting.

It wasn't all romantic. I didn't have a dorm room, so I slept on the floor in friends' rooms, I returned coke bottles for the 5¢ deposits to buy food with, and I would walk the 7 miles across town every Sunday night to get one good meal a week at the Hare Krishna temple. I loved it. And much of what I stumbled into by following my curiosity and intuition turned out to be priceless later on. Let me give you one example:

Reed College at that time offered perhaps the best calligraphy instruction in the country. Throughout the campus every poster, every label on every drawer, was beautifully hand calligraphed. Because I had dropped out and didn't have to take the normal classes, I decided to take a calligraphy class to learn how to do this. I learned about serif and san serif typefaces, about varying the amount of space between different letter combinations, about what makes great typography great. It was beautiful, historical, artistically subtle in a way that science can't capture, and I found it fascinating.

None of this had even a hope of any practical application in my life. But ten years later, when we were designing the first Macintosh computer, it all came back to me. And we designed it all into the Mac. It was the first computer with beautiful typography. If I had never dropped in on that single course in college, the Mac would have never had multiple typefaces or proportionally spaced fonts. And since Windows just copied the Mac, its likely that no personal computer would have them. If I had never dropped out, I would have never dropped in on this calligraphy class, and personal computers might not have the wonderful typography that they do. Of course it was impossible to connect the dots looking forward when I was in college. But it was very, very clear looking backwards ten years later.

Again, you can't connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. You have to trust in something — your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever. This approach has never let me down, and it has made all the difference in my life.

My second story is about love and loss.

I was lucky — I found what I loved to do early in life. Woz and I started Apple in my parents garage when I was 20. We worked hard, and in 10 years Apple had grown from just the two of us in a garage into a $2 billion company with over 4000 employees. We had just released our finest creation — the Macintosh — a year earlier, and I had just turned 30. And then I got fired. How can you get fired from a company you started? Well, as Apple grew we hired someone who I thought was very talented to run the company with me, and for the first year or so things went well. But then our visions of the future began to diverge and eventually we had a falling out. When we did, our Board of Directors sided with him. So at 30 I was out. And very publicly out. What had been the focus of my entire adult life was gone, and it was devastating.

I really didn't know what to do for a few months. I felt that I had let the previous generation of entrepreneurs down - that I had dropped the baton as it was being passed to me. I met with David Packard and Bob Noyce and tried to apologize for screwing up so badly. I was a very public failure, and I even thought about running away from the valley. But something slowly began to dawn on me — I still loved what I did. The turn of events at Apple had not changed that one bit. I had been rejected, but I was still in love. And so I decided to start over.

I didn't see it then, but it turned out that getting fired from Apple was the best thing that could have ever happened to me. The heaviness of being successful was replaced by the lightness of being a beginner again, less sure about everything. It freed me to enter one of the most creative periods of my life.

During the next five years, I started a company named NeXT, another company named Pixar, and fell in love with an amazing woman who would become my wife. Pixar went on to create the worlds first computer animated feature film, Toy Story, and is now the most successful animation studio in the world. In a remarkable turn of events, Apple bought NeXT, I returned to Apple, and the technology we developed at NeXT is at the heart of Apple's current renaissance. And Laurene and I have a wonderful family together.

I'm pretty sure none of this would have happened if I hadn't been fired from Apple. It was awful tasting medicine, but I guess the patient needed it. Sometimes life hits you in the head with a brick. Don't lose faith. I'm convinced that the only thing that kept me going was that I loved what I did. You've got to find what you love. And that is as true for your work as it is for your lovers. Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle. As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it. And, like any great relationship, it just gets better and better as the years roll on. So keep looking until you find it. Don't settle.

My third story is about death.

When I was 17, I read a quote that went something like: "If you live each day as if it was your last, someday you'll most certainly be right." It made an impression on me, and since then, for the past 33 years, I have looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself: "If today were the last day of my life, would I want to do what I am about to do today?" And whenever the answer has been "No" for too many days in a row, I know I need to change something.

Remembering that I'll be dead soon is the most important tool I've ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life. Because almost everything — all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure - these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important. Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart.

About a year ago I was diagnosed with cancer. I had a scan at 7:30 in the morning, and it clearly showed a tumor on my pancreas. I didn't even know what a pancreas was. The doctors told me this was almost certainly a type of cancer that is incurable, and that I should expect to live no longer than three to six months. My doctor advised me to go home and get my affairs in order, which is doctor's code for prepare to die. It means to try to tell your kids everything you thought you'd have the next 10 years to tell them in just a few months. It means to make sure everything is buttoned up so that it will be as easy as possible for your family. It means to say your goodbyes.

I lived with that diagnosis all day. Later that evening I had a biopsy, where they stuck an endoscope down my throat, through my stomach and into my intestines, put a needle into my pancreas and got a few cells from the tumor. I was sedated, but my wife, who was there, told me that when they viewed the cells under a microscope the doctors started crying because it turned out to be a very rare form of pancreatic cancer that is curable with surgery. I had the surgery and I'm fine now.

This was the closest I've been to facing death, and I hope its the closest I get for a few more decades. Having lived through it, I can now say this to you with a bit more certainty than when death was a useful but purely intellectual concept:

No one wants to die. Even people who want to go to heaven don't want to die to get there. And yet death is the destination we all share. No one has ever escaped it. And that is as it should be, because Death is very likely the single best invention of Life. It is Life's change agent. It clears out the old to make way for the new. Right now the new is you, but someday not too long from now, you will gradually become the old and be cleared away. Sorry to be so dramatic, but it is quite true.

Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma — which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.

When I was young, there was an amazing publication called The Whole Earth Catalog, which was one of the bibles of my generation. It was created by a fellow named Stewart Brand not far from here in Menlo Park, and he brought it to life with his poetic touch. This was in the late 1960's, before personal computers and desktop publishing, so it was all made with typewriters, scissors, and polaroid cameras. It was sort of like Google in paperback form, 35 years before Google came along: it was idealistic, and overflowing with neat tools and great notions.

Stewart and his team put out several issues of The Whole Earth Catalog, and then when it had run its course, they put out a final issue. It was the mid-1970s, and I was your age. On the back cover of their final issue was a photograph of an early morning country road, the kind you might find yourself hitchhiking on if you were so adventurous. Beneath it were the words: "Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish." It was their farewell message as they signed off. Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish. And I have always wished that for myself. And now, as you graduate to begin anew, I wish that for you.

Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish.

Thank you all very much.

Steve Jobs

The reason to do what feels good is because when
it feel good, that's God (universal intelligence) telling
you with 'absolute certainty' that you are doing the things
you have to do to make your dreams come true. Conversely,
feeling bad tells you that you are doing the things that are
stopping you from making your dreams come true...

Your Desire to make it happen

Your desire to make something happen is all you need to
make it happen. The only reason you won't make something
happen is if your fear of it not happening becomes stronger
than your desire to make it happen.

Something you should know about "How To"

.
If you believe you have to know how to make something
happen in order for it to happen, it will never happen.. A Baby
DOES NOT
have to know how to walk in order to walk. A child
learns how to do things by doing them. Your desire to achieve
something will teach you how to do it...

Little known facts about the Catholic Church in Las Vegas :

There are more churches in Las Vegas than casinos. During Sunday services at the offertory, some worshippers contribute casino chips as opposed to cash. Some are sharing their winnings - some are hoping to win. Since they get chips from so many different casinos, and they are worth money, the Catholic churches are required to send all the chips into the diocese for sorting. Once sorted into the respective casino chips, one junior priest takes the chips and makes the roundsto the casinos turning chips into cash. And he, of course, is known as The Chip Monk.

Acceptance is MAGICAL

Acceptance is not about accepting something as forever. Acceptance is about accepting' what is' in the moment and for the moment.. Acceptance include accepting the things you do not like rather than resisting them. Resisting the things you do not like makes them 'persist' in your life while acceptance allows them to melt away from your life with no effort at all.

A GOLDEN piece of advice...

This is a piece of advice that is the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth... It is a simple yet profound truth, a truth I always turn to when things in my life aren't working out for me and it goes like this:

Trying too hard is un-attractive (does not attract) and pushes away from us the very things we want.

Anytime my life stops working for me it is because I am TRYING TO HARD....When I realized that, I walk away from whatever it is that I am doing and do something satisfying that requires no effort at all. When I do that everything in my life begins working again, as if by magic.

GUARANTEED, if you life sucks right now, you are trying too hard...

Holy ERECTION

And other 'self-help articles' of importance can be found by Clicking Here

The article titled Holy Erection will be the most honest and straightforward articles on human sexuality you will find anywhere. The purpose of this article is to bring human sexuality out of the dark ages into the age of spiritual enlightenment where our sexual desires are seen as something sacred and holy rather than something dirty and shameful.
