Love is Dead Are you aghast?   Do you disapprove?   I am not asking forgiveness for it.   Why?   Because, if you look around, you will see that the time for love has past.   You may argue the case that there is room for the heart amongst us, but is there?   Really?   The secret to living successfully in this western society is not to empathise, nor to emote with anyone.   Emotions are dead, they are unwanted and are ungraceful.   This is what our society seems to be instilling into us of late.   If you want success you need to be  focused, persistent, determined.   These kinds of people don’t allow distractions to get in their way.  This thought occurred to me when I was laying in bed this morning, mulling over why one person has so much success over many others who are far more talented and in tune with the human psyche.   When I  woke, it was as though someone had switched on my bedside...

  Barbara Streisand (72)   What a fantastically, beautiful collection of songs by such a talented artist.   When I first heard Barbara Streisand had released another album out at the age of 72, I wondered what she could sound like and wondered if her voice had stood the test of time ...

As soon as I knew Ms Streisand had released an album, I didn’t hesitate to get online, on Amazon, and buy a CD.   But, in this day and age of instant gratification, I couldn’t wait a week for postie to deliver - so got modern technology (chiefly unavailable during the time when ...

When I first heard these words from Professor David R. Hawkins, I thought “What an uncaring attitude for such an enlightened man!”   It wasn’t until after I gave it some serious thought that I began to understand how refreshingly ‘releasing’ that statement was.   Think about it yourself.   When situations have gotten particularly bad and you’re feeling sad and down about it, try to catch yourself during the midst of your worrying and ruminating and say it: “So what!”   It can be quite liberating.   It kind of stops the anxiety in its tracks. Strangely, I’m reminded of one of Aesop’s fables ‘The Fox Without a Tail’.   Aesop’s fox didn’t have a tail, felt odd and set out to slyly convince every other fox in the neighbourhood to get rid of their tails too.   After reading this piece you may make out the metaphor in that story. I got to thinking of all the many scary events that seem to be raising their ugly heads all over the world just lat...
