It would be a bummer to me if we just live one lifetime and sink or swim. Also, "at-one-ment"... I find it distasteful. There is a reason we have been...
But being like, or a part of, God/dess does not mean we have to lose our individuality. If we were to be completely all alike inside, then I would think we...
... I agree Allen. I made this point only fairly recently myself, which I don't mind repeating. There is a dualistic type nature of man. On the one hand we are...

It has been said that humans tend to be able to naturally remember a handy list of up to seven things, and after that it gets a lot harder without training and...
Oh, I don't see the therapist any longer. It is not a necessity. We didn't really discuss the meanings. She just made the comment. And I thought it was...
Hi Carol, I really like mandalas. When I first moved to Kansas City in 1973 I spent a lot of time at the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art. They have a first rate ...
For several years I had one thing on my list of "things to do before I die", and that was to learn how to lucid dream. Finally on June of last year I was able...
WOW, David, those are nice. I particularly like the 2012 one. It is interesting that it is a phoenix. I belong to another chatlist called phoenixinn, and it...
