The one thing every person on the planet wants is to be able to create the life we want without interference, and until this time, there have been no schools or institutions that teach people how to create their life.Karen Holmeshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01973992314019746365noreply@blogger.comBlogger72125tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8650221149810742937.post-81617708840221285902019-12-07T09:39:00.002-08:002019-12-07T09:39:33.808-08:00Creating by Intent or DefaultThere are two kinds of light, as I said previously, and both exist simultaneously. The sun continues to shine even on the cloudiest days, and the spiritual Light continues to shine during the darkest times in our life. We are creative beings, just as our Creators are, and we continue to create by intent or by default.<br />
<br />
What we believe places us along a continuum of frequency, and our fears determine which direction we go from that point. If we believe we don't have a home, our fears will eventually create the circumstances where we are homeless. If we believe that smoking leads to cancer, and we continue to smoke, that sets the stage for cancer.<br />
<br />
We must be very careful about what we believe. What you believe is what is.<br />
<br />
If we don't like where we are, we must work to change it. We take back control of our life.<br />
<br />
This is where are are now in the church calendar--and also in mankind's evolution. We have come to the end of the cycles and the new cycles are starting and we are deciding what we no longer wish to experience.<br />
<br />
We can now start to create by intent.<br />

It is now December, and later this month in the northern hemisphere the winter solstice will occur. The days begin to get longer again. As the days reach their shortest, I feel my greatest sympathy for my ancestors who lived without electricity.<br />
<br />
There is also a kind of Darkness that is not affected by light from the Sun. Light from the Sun is spelled with a small "L." It wipes away the darkness and the shadows. Light, spelled with a capital "L," is spiritual Light, and it overcomes the Darkness of fear. Technology doesn't give us the advantage over our ancestors. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Several religions celebrate the birthdays of their spiritual teachers with candles to symbolize the return of Light. It really doesn't matter where the Sun is at the time. This is when the Light returns, when the thought-forms are put into the Light and matter is created. The Christian season of Advent--meaning the Coming of the Light-- oftentimes purple or violet candles are used, and then with the birth of Jesus of Nazareth, the color changes to red, the color of Creativity. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
December is the time to prepare and to think. How can the principles that Lao Tzu taught--Tolerance--be applied in your own life? What principles did Jesus of Nazareth teach? What do you wish to create? What is your plan?<br />
<br />
The sun is always shining, and there is always light in the world. There is always Light in the world, but when we are afraid, we don't see it. The principles and the application of the principles allow us to overcome our fears. </div>

Tweet to Pope Francis:<br />
<br />
"If the Faith of the Pure Ray can unify the world's seven major religions, Ireland and Northern Ireland can be unified. Ireland can be unified by unifying Christianity. If it can unify Ireland, can it unify the Church?"<br />
<br />
There is one month to go until the Brexit deadline. What is the solution? There is only one option that allows everyone to function of a higher level--the proposed international government. It allows the four nations of the United Kingdom to separate along cultural lines rather than borders that have been drawn around wars, and for each to find a niche based on its natural resources. Our first government proposal return England to its ancient historical niche.<br />
<br />
Ireland was divided by religious wars, and different interpretations in the religions have torn apart religions. The wars are oppressive to many people so they eventually walk away from their country, their politics and their religions. The one unifying force that draws in every person on the planet is being able to create the life each wants. People generally prefer to live among people of their same culture.<br />
<br />
Ireland is a Catholic nation, and Northern Ireland is a Protestant nation. By taking the paradigm shift to the teachings of the Faith of the Pure Ray, the entire island becomes one again an Irish nation, with anyone who wishes to learn how to create the life they want becoming students of the Faith of the Pure Ray.<br />

If twelve people are standing in a round room, and they have a common goal to create a project, their project is completely surrounded by Light. On the opposite side of the circle is someone who shares the same goal, and is willing to help to bring it about. Each is doing his or her share of the work. As the month progresses, their focus shifts to the Crisis in the Family segment of Islam, and solving a problem.<br />

For the last two or three months, the U.S. Senate has been going through the confirmation process for a new Supreme Court justice, and this has been like no other in the history of our nation. As difficult as it has been for many people, it may be an example of where Faith of the Pure Rays students have been in the planning process. Can we use this historical event, without judgment, as an archetypical story because so many people are watching it unfold? Can we apply what we have learned to our own plan to create our life?<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Over his lifetime, Judge Kavanaugh established a solid reputation in the judiciary and that allowed him to be nominated for the Supreme Court. He went to a prestigious prep school and Yale College. He was on the fast track to success. It was as if he walked forward on his path, and had finally reached the point where there was a door in front of him-- when he was nominated by President Trump-- and on the other side of the door was his ideal life. He reached out, but when he opened it, there, on the other side, was not his dream life, but a Brick Wall. He should have had an easy confirmation process, but instead he was accused of sexual misconduct. If he equates becoming a U.S. Supreme Court justice with his life, and he is not confirmed, this is the point where he could enter into his end of life crisis. Even if he is confirmed this weekend, he will go into American history books with a stain on his name. </div>
<div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The accusations of sexual misconduct have backed into the corner with two untenable options. If he is guilty of the accusations, he cannot lie to Congress--he will face perjury charges-- and he cannot tell the truth. Either way, he has to address the security principles of the Hinduism segment. On the other side of the circle, the parallel involves creating a plan that benefits everyone and then bringing in the people to help you. Faith of the Pure Ray students know that when you create a plan, there is resistance. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
After the allegations were brought forward, he and his wife sat for an interview for Fox News. He talked about his plan to clear his name. She is the person he believes he needs to help him get his life. Together, he brought in the support he needs from Fox News and their audience of Conservatives. Then he was able to defend himself from the allegations in last Thursday's hearing before the Senate Judicial Committee. He has the support of the Republicans of the Senate Judiciary Committee, and they voted to send it to the floor of the Senate for the final vote by all 100 Senators, who address the Crisis in the Family segment/ equality segment. They are facing resistance from their constituents for voting for a nominee who can sway the Supreme Court to the Right, and further erode the Liberties and Freedoms for all Americans.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The Republicans have the majority in the Senate. They have the constitutional rights to confirm Judge Kavanaugh as the next Supreme Court justice, but the midterm elections are within five weeks, and the Democrats are building momentum for taking back the House and possibly the Senate. If they can take one or both Houses back, they will try to open an investigation into whether Kavanaugh committed perjury during his hearings, and President Trump may consider him to be a liability to his own plans before the final vote. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Judge Kavanaugh is not yet at the point where he can clear his name and then demonstrate his capacity to be a good judge. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
What does this teach us? Your plan cannot be based on weaving an illusion or on power games. If Kavanaugh is guilty of the allegations, he could have withdrawn his nomination "for the good of the country," and it would have been a positive first step to clear his name. If your plan doesn't address the root cause of the problem--which is ending the power games--it makes the crisis worse.</div>

<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
As we come to this stage in the planning process, we transition from Security to Capacity. This is the point of the Brick Wall, which is characterized by the end of life crisis. If you cannot establish your security, if you cannot overcome the resistance to your plan to create your life--people die when they believe they cannot get their life. <div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Why should this be such a difficult time period? The Light Source Invention gives us a clue. The power games associated with Hinduism lead to poverty, coming from a profound sense of lack, and that leads to un-empowerment and famine because people function outside of their capacity. </div>
<div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
On the opposite side of the circle is life story of Moses and then the transition to Gautama Buddha. </div>
<div>
Can we divide Moses's life into three parts, and then compare it to Gautama Buddha? </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The first part of Moses's life was in the pharaoh's household, then when he learned he was actually born a Hebrew and that his true people were slaves, he set out to free his people. Then, the third part was when he led his people out of bondage and then wandered in the wilderness for forty years.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
During those years, they had to rely on God, the Creator of us all, to provide them with everything they needed. Moses never made it to the promised land, and neither did the other people who were born and raised in a life where the power games were so oppressive. The younger generations who were born while they wandered were able to enter into the promised land. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Gautama Buddha lived a life of extreme wealth, to the point he was not allowed to experience poverty. When he finally was exposed to it, he walked away from his family, and like Moses, wandered in the wilderness. He, too, lived by manifesting what he needed, and eventually, made win-win agreements for what he needed, sharing his insights with others who had wealth. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The lesson is that when the power games we experience or play are so oppressive that we have no way to defend ourselves, that is when we die, but the underlying problem is that we are not functioning from our capacity. We don't have to live under circumstances where we are considered slaves. We just have not been able to figure out how to create a cash flow based on our talents and gifts. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The first principle of the global renaissance is that everyone must function from his or her own talents and gifts. People who work at jobs under bosses that are oppressive or even abusive leave and start their own business. It is a matter of walking away from the oppression and overcoming the fear of being responsible for your own support. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Confucius taught the principle of Capacity.<br /><div>

<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
Moving from a big city to a small town is a culture shock. In big cities, you are anonymous, but in small towns, most of the people grew up together, and therefore know each other's history. Big city people must learn to be careful about what to say. Before the internet came about, in a small town, the best way to hear all the news was through the gossips. If a rumor is spread around that doesn't quite mesh with one's past experiences, it can be rebuffed, but past histories also include disputes and prejudice, and even acts of revenge. Relationships can get nasty. <div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Schools are microcosms of a town. How many young people look forward to the day they can move out of town, to the big cities where they are anonymous? But, business relationships can be difficult, too. The same crises occur on every level. The internet allows the spread of gossip, and relationships are still nasty. <div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Hinduism focuses on security, and Diwali is about how to protect yourself and your family from the rumors and prejudice of the gossips. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
When it is a matter of revenge, and the rumors become nasty, how do you protect yourself? Character defamation is an individual form of genocide, and genocides are based on weaving an illusion. Once the Grand Lie has gone out, the truth doesn't overcome the lie, it just reaches the point where no one knows who to trust. It reaches the point where everything is log-jammed, and when new people are dragged into the illusion, they reinforce the lies. Eventually, societies become stagnant and corrupt, the natural progress slows, and eventually grinds to a halt. This is how nations become failed states. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
At this point, the only thing you can trust is Universal Law, which stands on seven principles--equality, liberty, freedom, compassion, abundance, capacity and tolerance. These principles allow for a sense of balance to be reinstated into the society. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The diagram of the Light Source Invention is not new. It is based on prayer wheels, which are used by many religious Asians to remind them of the principles of their religion. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
President Trump calls the media "fake news." His supporters trust him to make our nation great again, and to create a sense of prosperity for them. When you put your life in the hands of someone or something that cannot help you get your life, eventually, you realize that institution or individual cannot help you, and you hit the point of the Brick Wall. You lose your identity, you become part of a class of people, such as an alcoholic or cancer victim or drug addict or homeless, and you spiral down into the abyss. To rise out of it, you must stop relying on whatever it is, let go of the fear that led you to play the compensatory power game that led you to believe you cannot get the life you want, and you must assume responsibility for your own life. You must overcome your fear of failure, loss or death. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
In the era of world peace, everyone will function based on their own capacity, and this understanding allows the society to overcome the devolution into the abyss. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The Faith of the Pure Ray is the first step in the second row of the World Peace Marketing Strategy, and is designed for people who wish to establish a financial foundation. The economic foundation of the international government is that everyone functions based on one's talents and gifts, which everyone has, no matter where they stand in society. Even displaced people, homeless people, have something to offer. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Donald Trump is functioning outside of his capacity. He is a businessman that has no prior government experience. When you function outside of your capacity, you reach the point where everything you do makes the crisis worse. Donald Trump has surrounded himself with people based on loyalty to him, not necessarily their capacity to do the job, and therefore, it will be very difficult for him to rise out of his crisis. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
It will take a miracle for him to rise out of his crisis, and this is the point where we reach a crossroads as students. We can come to the understanding that our plan never had the capacity to get our life, because we are functioning outside of our capacity, and come up with a plan that benefits everyone. We can keep the same plan and continue on around the planning circle, and learn the principles of Confucianism, which is based on functioning from one's capacity, or we can choose to move forward to the next step in the World Peace Marketing Strategy, which focuses on miracles. </div>

This month, Hindus and students of the Faith of the Pure Ray all over the world are preparing for Diwali, and Americans are preparing for our Independence Day, which falls on the 4th.<br />
<br />
As I was going through my patriotic decorations this morning, I was thinking about what to say today as we transition into the Hindu segment of the calendar. For the first time, I saw the American flag in my hand, not just as a symbol of the United States of America, but as three colors that represent this first half of the month perfectly.<br />
<br />
Red is the color of Creativity. Blue is the color of Security--and conflict resolution--and white symbolizes purity and perfection.<br />
<br />
The Preamble of our Constitution says:<br />
<br />
<i>"We, the People of the United States, in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America."</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
Isn't this what Diwali is about, but for a family?<br />
<br />
The first requirement for conflict resolution is that all sides must be considered equal. We addressed that last month as we focused on the principles of Islam.<br />
<br />
When I think of the steps of conflict resolution, I imagine a family that has been estranged. They are separated, but equal. An event forces everyone to come together, such as a grave illness or death. Then, everyone must assume responsibility, and then come up with a plan that benefits everyone.<br />
<br />
Can that plan be for a more perfect union? Diwali focuses on peaceful relationships.<br />
<br />
Death is more than it seems. People die when they believe they cannot get their life, and oftentimes it is a conflict that seems to have no resolution that causes the death. For many years, I worked in the health care field, and saw women who were dealing with breast cancer, for example, and the women who had the full support of the family survived. I do not believe the family should be forced to comply with another's unreasonable demands, but unreasonable demands may cover up a hidden fear. Death is not inevitable.<br />
<br />
Sometimes, there are factors involved that make conflict resolution much more difficult, and for those times, I recommend our Conflict Resolution brochures, which can be found on our website in the <a href="http://www.oneworldgov.org/articles.htm" target="_blank">reference section.</a> (They are in pdf format, English only.)Karen Holmeshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01973992314019746365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8650221149810742937.post-9976138218890212802018-06-26T11:05:00.001-07:002018-06-26T11:05:09.929-07:00MiraclesYesterday, I sent letters to our channels and our miracles workers in preparation for a training session on how to do miracles. Twelve of the people on the list will be working on four miracles. Two will demonstrate and one will become the teacher for each of the miracles. What makes them miracles is not that they are hard to do, but because it is hard for these twelve people to do them. It will take a miracle for these twelve people to even show up.<br />
<br />
The four miracles we are addressing in our training session are Manifestation, Instantaneous Manifestation, Time Travel and Walking on Water.<br />
<br />
The Faith of the Pure Ray is offering me insights into how the miracles function. It is the overview religion, and we will go deeper into each of the religions by continuing on with the next step in the World Peace Marketing Strategy, <a href="http://www.oneworldgov.org/marketing/strategy.htm" target="_blank">World Peace Marketing Strategy</a> which is the <a href="http://www.catholicchurchamerica.org/" target="_blank">Catholic Church in America</a> project. <br />

<br />
On June 12, 2108 President Trump and Kim Jong Un met in Singapore for an historic summit, the first time a sitting U.S. president met with the leader of North Korea. If Trump had walked into the summit and played his power game of maximum pressure, Kim Jong Un would probably have walked out of the talks. This summit became a display of tolerance, and now it is time to address the principles of a plan that benefits everyone.<br />
<br />
What could be a more perfect demonstration for the month of Ramadan for students of the Faith of the Pure Ray?<br />
<br />
Ramadan is nearly half over, and on the other side of the circle is Christianity and the principles of Creativity and the plan. Islam addresses the principles of Equality, the first requirement for conflict resolution. The conflict between these two men dragged the entire planet to the brink of nuclear war, and so our first focus is on a plan that is based on equality and is able to resolve conflicts.<br />
<br />
Students have reached the "south pole" of the circle, but this is event brings mankind back to the starting point, the Exit Strategy for Iraq, which includes the creation of an international court system based on Universal Law.<br />
<br />
The conflicts are not over. There will always be disputes. If Trump's next step is to force his own agenda for denuclearization on North Korea, the next step from Islam is Hinduism, and addressing issues related to Security. If that step fails, the conflicts continue with military action. <br />
<br />
It is in no one's best interest for mankind to devolve into a nuclear war, nor to ignore the disputes and to allow the anger to continue to rise, which leads to acts of terrorism.<br />
<br />
What is in everyone's best interest is for the creation of the international government, and an associated international court system, so disputes can resolved peacefully, and the monies wasted on war will go to the people instead.

Islam teaches the principle of Equality and stand in protest when someone is not standing on the principles. Are you standing on the principles or is what others are doing is a misunderstanding that is triggering a response in you?<br />
<br />
On the opposite side of the circle for the first segment of Ramadan, students of the Faith of the Pure Ray also address the Taoist's lessons related to tolerance, so there is a sense of finding balance in relationships. Tolerance is not something that can be put off until some time in the future.<br />

This brings in more and more people into the conflict. It takes a fourth element to stop its revolution, and that is the principles of Buddhism, which addresses prosperity.<br />
<br />
Gautama Buddha was raised in a very wealthy family, protected from any sense of poverty. He wasn't allowed to even see the poor people of India. His father raised him to learn the principles of prosperity based on nobility, but one day he accidentally into contact with the poor, and he he could not justify the vast gulf between his life and that of the poor, and so he walked away from his life of extreme luxury and started on his journey to find a sense of balance between the extremes.<br />
<br />
His life was similar to Moses's in having to find the middle point between vast wealth and extreme poverty. How Gautama Buddha reconciled it in his own mind was to realize that everyone has something to offer and also has needs, and there are others who need what you have and have what you need. Gautama could get what he needed by sharing his spiritual teachings with the wealthy, who had a place for him to sleep but were too busy in their lives to spend their limited free time on the search for enlightenment. These were win-win agreements, just as Jesus of Nazareth made when he traveled with the other disciples.<br />
<br />
Win-win agreements build trust and set the stage for future agreements. Both sides function from their capacity, even if that capacity is to be able to offer a place to sleep and food to eat or sharing with others what you have learned.The two people find a sense of equality between two very unequal concepts. They create a sense of unlimited potential and abundance, and equality is the first requirement for conflict resolution. This is what leads to a sense of tolerance, which helps to stop the devolution of conflicts.<br />
<br />
On the opposite side of the planning circle from Buddhism are Confucianism and Taoism, which address capacity and tolerance and empowerment.Karen Holmeshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01973992314019746365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8650221149810742937.post-23457321789059160182018-03-24T14:13:00.000-07:002018-03-24T14:13:02.348-07:00Be Ready to Leave at a Moment's NoticeWhen Moses went to the pharaoh and demanded that he "let my people go," what incentive did the pharaoh have to agree? The power was all on the side of the pharaoh. Moses couldn't fight him, but he could demonstrate his capacity to see through the illusion of the power game that kept the Hebrews enslaved and knew that our Creator is stronger than the illusion, and he also understood that there is always a backlash to the games.<br />
<br />
The power games continue on until an innocent person is crucified, and then there is an immediate backlash. The power games never worked. They just seemed to work. The pharaoh saw it was in his best interest to have unlimited slaves at his command to build his grand project, but in fact, it was not in his interest to do so. What he was doing was against Universal Law, of "do unto others as you would have them to unto you," and he was fighting the Universe and he could not win. Moses could not convince the pharaoh of that, so it took the seven curses, based on the Seven Deadly Sins, to backlash on the pharaoh and to create a sense of equality.<br />
<br />
The pharaoh was 180 degrees from where he thought he was.<br />
<br />
The Egyptians played all seven power games. First there was war, and then genocide, which log-jammed the Hebrews, and then massacres to take what was theirs, and finally, with all that new wealth, the Hebrews were enslaved. <br />
<br />
To overcome slavery, you must have somewhere to go. In the American south, for example, prior to the Civil War, people who were sympathetic to the plight of the slaves formed the famous Underground Railroad, and many slaves were able to make their way north to freedom.<br />
<br />
Like the Pharaoh, what seems to what we need to get our life is not necessarily in anyone's best interest. The third dimension is called The Illusion because in this dimension, we believe what we are doing will help us get our life. It oftentimes takes hitting the point of crisis, and even the end of life crisis, to let go of what can't help us and to turn around and find what can help us.<br />
<br />
In the Illusion, we hold onto what cannot help us and we push away what can.<br />
<br />
The parable of the Banquet Table is about the dimensions. the dimension are 90 degrees from each other, a paradigm shift in what we believe. In the third dimension, we are on the floor, like dogs fighting over crumbs that fall from the table, and we believe by playing the games we will win success. This is our life, and when we come to believe we cannot get our life, that is when we die. . The leg of the table represents the fourth dimension, and we know we can get our life, but we haven't figured out yet how to get it. The table top is the fifth dimension, and that is when we are working to create the life we want. It is the Rainbow that Noah was promised by God after the deluge had ended. We Walk the Rainbow to create the life we want. It represents the planning process, and if you know the root cause of a crisis, with the planning process, you can find the solution to any crisis.<br />
<br />
The spiritual hierarchy has given us a series of books and booklets that are like a road map for walking the Rainbow. The <a href="http://www.ontherainbowpeacestore.com/creativity/creativity5.htm" target="_blank">Outline Series on Creativity</a> includes a chart that explains the Seven Deadly Sins and how to recognize them in your own life. What is the ultimate conclusion of the games that each of us is playing?<br />
<br />
Everyone plays the games. The games are bad, not the people. To create the life we want, we must stand on the principles of Creativity, and know where we are, where we are going, and how to get there. And, like Moses and the Hebrews, we must be ready to leave at a moment's notice.<br />

<br />
Students of the Faith of the Pure Ray understand that each of the world's seven major religions plays a favorite power game, and as we turn our focus to Judaism, we must address the game of Envy, which leads to genocides.<br />
<br />
The Light Source Invention demonstrates that in a conflict, if one side is deemed more important than another, and the principle of equality is lacking, it sets the stage for a genocide based on a sense of judgment. People who have been dragged into a genocide lack liberty--their unalienable rights-- and by standing on the principles of Liberty, the swinging pendulum returns to the midpoint. If our unalienable rights are not reinstated, the conflict devolves into massacres from covert and overt actions.<br />
<br />
Our unalienable rights are granted to us by our Creator, and they are to be able to create the life we want without interference, to be treated fairly and equally, and to have a voice in our government. These rights are granted to us because they are necessary to be able to fulfill our purposes in life. People all over the world are being denied these rights, but coming to us from our Creator means that those who are denying them are breaking Universal Law. They are fighting the Universe, and they cannot win.<br />
<br />
<i>"God does not work with anyone who is not standing on the principles of Universal Law." </i><br />
<i><br /></i>
Our organization has been working to purify the U.S. legal system. Over the years laws and practices have been introduced that create chaos, and before our Constitution can be used as the basis for the international government, these laws and practices must be purified to prevent the chaos from spreading onto the international level. We have been working to overcome a misunderstanding that seems to allow people to justify denying others their unalienable rights. There are three levels of the Universe--the Principles, the Power and the Project, or in the case of our legal system, Universal law, Constitutional law and federal law, but many people see only Constitutional Law and federal law--the Power and the Project--and so they can "legally" justify playing the power games.<br />
<br />
The Iraq War devolved as a character defamation campaign against Saddam Hussein. Character defamation is an individual form of genocide. Many people around the world stood in protest, but because of the misunderstanding about the three levels of the Universe, many people in our government believe it is a legal war. This same misunderstanding is occurring all over the world.<br />
<br />
Misunderstandings progress in a cyclical process. We each have in our heart the blueprint for our perfect life, and each choice we make is supposed to help us reach our goal, but misunderstandings occur and kick us off course. After several events, we are 180 degrees from where we think we are, and all the time we believe we are headed toward our goal. This is the point of the Brick Wall, where we have reached a door, and all we have to do is to reach forward and turn the knob, and our perfect life is there. When we open the door, we don't see our dream life, but a brick wall. What we want is behind us, not behind the door.<br />
<br />
For George W. Bush, the preemptive strike should have led to an easy win, like the Gulf War, but it was in no one's best interest for the United States to invade Iraq. There were no WMD found, and the judgment against Saddam Hussein backlashed on George W. Bush and Tony Blair. <br />
<br />
Under Universal Law, what you do to another will be done to you. By denying others their unalienable rights, you lose your own, and this is what is occurring now within the United States. Now, to get them back, we must guarantee them to every person on the planet. The Contingency for our Exit Strategy for Iraq proposal is that Americans amend our Constitution to create the additional layer of government.<br />
<br />
This occurs with every power game. They seem to work for a time, but there is always a backlash to the games.<br />
<br />
We go deeper into the Cycle of Misunderstandings in our "Outline Series of Creativity" essays.<br />
<br />

</tbody></table>
<div>
Today, people all over the world celebrate Valentine's Day, which is based on romantic love. How many people around the world have experienced a romantic attachment? </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
How many were hurt when it became apparent that their goals were different, and the relationship broke apart? Romantic attachments turn into genocides. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
This is February, and we are once again looking at the overview concept of creating the life you want. January is about having a plan, but also starting to deal with the people who are resisting your plan, even to the point of stealing it. March is about bringing in the people to help you create your plan, but what if your plan is not a plan that benefits everyone but a plot for revenge that benefits no one. The overview idea allows us to renew our sense of purpose and to look at what we are doing from the wider perspective before we once against focus on taking a step to create the plan. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
When you make a choice to stand on the principles that you have the right to create your plan, and it stands on the principles that are addressed in the Christianity segment, your choice affects the people who rely on you for their security and support. It starts a dance in the family. The relationship goes through a series of battles called, the Battles of Armageddon, until they split apart. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Today is not the day for thinking about splitting apart due to different goals, but for being together. The strongest relationships are based not on romantic attachments, but on life-partnerships, which are based on having the same goals. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
With life-partnerships, everyone assumes responsibility for their own financial support, and creates a vocation and an avocation, and one's vocation is the other's avocation. The two mentor each other. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Our Getting Out of the Abyss classes include the Crisis in the Family and the Lifepartnership segments, which go into this topic in far greater depth. </div>

</tbody></table>
The twelve days of Christmas are over, and now it is time to take the Plan and the Tools and to find a sense of balance.<br />
<br />
The Plan solves a Crisis in the Family, but there are those who rely on the existing structure for their security and support, and the dance has started. A sense of duality has been established between the allegorical forces of Light and Darkness. We have the tools of Creativity--such as the principles that Jesus of Nazareth taught in the Beatitudes, and we know we can get the life we want.<br />
<br />
This is now a time of introspection. It is coming to the understanding that we are where we want to be in life.<br />
<br />
The plan for world peace is like a seed being planted, and as it grows, it allows other plants around it to grow.<br />
<br />
For the rest of the month of January, I will continue to work on my plan, and I hope you will, too.<br />
<br />
Everything starts first on the spiritual level, then progresses to the mental level, and then to the physical level. Before each of us was born, we created our projects on the spiritual level, which allows us to fulfill our purposes in life, and makes our plan possible to create. We have a soul agreement with our Creator that certain events will occur in our life, that we will meet certain people, and that we will have everything we need to create our plan.<br />
<br />
If we are working to create the life we want, and we have a plan that allows us to fulfill our purpose in life, that is when we find our sense of balance in our life.<br />
<br />
The next step is to bring in the people you need to help you create your life. They want to know how you are able to do it because they want to do it, too. As you progress through the planning process, you draw behind you the people you need.<br />
<br />
In the Battle of Light and Darkness, Light is a creative substance that when you put a thought-form into it, it creates matter. The Darkness is based on fear, and the three major fears are fear of loss, death and failure. They lead to compensatory power games. When you create a plan that benefits everyone, and stands on the principles of Creativity, you are standing in the Light. At the end of the line that stretches out behind you are those who want to steal your plan from you--those who personify the Darkness. The balance between Light and Darkness ends when you find the balance between the two. You step out of the battle of the duality, because you understand no one can take your life away from you.<br />
<br />
Imagine that your soul group is made up of everyone you need to help you get the life you want. They have arrived in your life at just the right time. What you have to create your project has been given to you on a Silver Platter from our Creator. You are where you want to be. You cannot be bribed, and you are unbeatable. That is where the High Priestess rests. She sits on fertile ground even when the lands behind her are desolate. <br />

Many Christians believe Jesus of Nazareth took on the sins of the world, and therefore, somehow the benefits of that extend to each Christian, and that is so, but also not so. Taking on the Sins of the World is a tool of Creativity, and it frees us from "thorns" that keep us stuck. Jesus wielded the tool, and it freed us all, but we must all also Take on the Sins of the World to create the life we want. Jesus freed himself from the "thorns," and by doing that, he demonstrated one of the tools of Creativity.<br />
<br />
Christians don't believe in Tarot cards, but they can be considered the first Bible. Tarot cards are used for divination--foretelling the future, and that is something we should not rely on, because it un-empowers us. It is like magic to be able to shuffle a deck of cards and lay them into a particular pattern on a table, and they show you the answer to your question. The focus should not be on divination, but on the Major Arcana cards, which depict the 22 steps of the planning process, and the first three cards--The Fool, the Magician, and the High Priestess--address Christianity.<br />
<br />
When you walk forward, you first take a step with your left foot and then your right foot. The Fool is the first step, and the Magician is the right step, and then you find a sense of balance between the two, which is the High Priestess.<br />
<br />
Speaking from my own experience, when the spiritual hierarchy gave me the plan for the international government, I imagined everyone would see the potential of the plan as I did, and would let go of everything they held dear and join the World Peace Movement. I couldn't imagine that anyone would fight to the death to prevent it from coming about. I was the Fool, and I took my first step, and it was off the edge of the abyss, and I had to figure out how to climb out of it. It was a long journey up through a long, dark tunnel, until I came out into the light again. Another person was ahead of me, and others were behind me, watching to see how I did it, and following me out of it into the light. It became a line of people, all trying to reach the light, and at the end of the line are the people who are trying to drag everyone backwards in our progress.<br />
<br />
The darkness is fears and belief structures, and facing the obstacles that appear on the path. Jesus healed the blind and the lame, and even overcome death. How did he do it? In the Bible, people lived over 800 years. How did they do it? Was it magic?<br />
<br />
The books I channeled from the spiritual hierarchy include "The Outline Series of Creativity," by Seth and also Archangel Michael, and one of the segments addresses the tools you must wield as the Magician. I chose this version of the Magician today because of the tools he has before him. One of the tools we wield to create the life we want is Taking on the Sins of the World.<br />
<br />
When one person creates a project that benefits everyone, mankind moves forward in our evolution. In the Alpha and the Omega--the moving away from God and the coming back to God--we are drawing closer to our Creator. We share the same Creative Substance. We create by intent rather than by default.<br />
<br />
In the Faith of the Pure Ray schools, students will learn how to wield the tools of Creativity. You can read the Outline Series on Creativity and apply what you read there in your own life to help free you from the "thorns" that keep you stuck. It is the responsibility of the Pope to Take on the Sins of the World, and Jesus can be considered a pope, but it also us to each of us to free ourselves in such a way that it benefits mankind, also.<br />
<br />
I channeled a long list of books and booklets that address the principles of Creativity and the application of the principles, and even the planning steps and stages, and they can be found at <a href="http://www.ontherainbowpeacestore.com/" target="_blank">www.ontherainbowpeacestore.com</a>. They do a much better job of explaining these teachings than I do. The catalog is based on the planning process and it is a remarkable resource in itself.<br />

<br />
The focus in November is Tolerance and the principles of the cooperation of nature. December addresses the overview idea of that is considered the true meaning of Christmas-- Peace on Earth and Good Will to All. Then in January, we are looking Christianity and the opposing religion of Islam, and the point and counterpoint of unification and conflict resolution. Islam is not so much conflict resolution as it is Crisis in the Family--the rationale for the plan that benefits everyone. We can look out at the world and see that world peace is still a dream for many people, and so we must start around the planning circle again to address the issues that are preventing world peace from coming.<br />
<br />
The application of that is the power games that are played and the favorite game that Christians play--waging war.<br />
<br />
The overview plan is the plan for the international government, and the first two proposals are US proposals that first end the overview global conflict that started as the result of the preemptive strike on Iraq. The conflict devolved as a genocide, not a war. The squeezing action from the conflict has affected everyone, and that can unify the planet. The counterpoint idea is the U.S. Constitutional Amendment proposal. What people who have been dragged into a genocide lack is their unalienable rights, and by denying the Iraqi people their unalienable rights, the United States is losing our unalienable rights. Now, to get them back, we must guarantee them to every person on the planet.<br />
<br />
Wars are based on the power game of Pride, which comes from the belief structure that you are more important than another person, and therefore, you have the right to put others down. No one has the right to do that, and so under Universal Law, when you put someone down, that person will go up and you will go down.<br />
<br />
The Iraq War devolved as an act of revenge, which brings together five power games. Each of the government proposals has a set of books and booklets that explain the principles, the application of the principles, and the planning steps associated with the proposal. They explain everything is far greater depth than what we cover here. While students of the Faith of the Pure Ray learn the principles of each of the religions, the entire planet is taking the same steps year by year to create the international government.<br />

That is a misunderstanding that came about when men started to realize they play a part in the procreation of the species. You could say it was a power game that was based on a fear that the women would become too powerful, and so the men grabbed for power. The Trinity is Father, Mother and Son.<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The Universe always has three levels--the Principles, the Power and the Project.<br /><div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
In our Purifying the US Legal System segment, we are addressing the three levels of the Universe, and its application in our legal system. It is one of our tax exempt purposes to purify the US legal system of laws that create chaos to prevent the chaos from spreading onto the international level. At this time, many people recognize only two levels--constitutional law and federal law--and the laws and practices are creating chaos to the point where our government can justify denying Americans--and people around the world--our unalienable rights granted to us all by our Creator. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The Father level is Universal Law, and it stands on the principles of equality, liberty, freedom, compassion, abundance, capacity and tolerance. Universal Law is fixed, and it pegs mankind on a very high level. This level grants us our unalienable rights--to be able to create the life we want without interference, to be treated fairly and equally, and to have a voice in our government. When it is left out of the legal system, it denies us our unalienable rights. The Mother level is the power level, and it is not fixed. It is evolutionary, and it can go up, down or straight ahead depending on the choices we make in our lives. In our legal system, it is our Constitution, which creates a government (do marriages create a government?), and it can evolve, devolve or lead to the edge of the abyss depending on power games and abuse of power. Choosing to go up is to stand on the principles. Straight ahead is to ignore the crisis and pass it on to future generation, and it takes seven generations to undo the damage (the Curse of the Generations.) Down is to fall back on power games, which always lead to backlashes because they go against Universal Law. The Son level is the application of the principle and the power, but when the principles are left out and the power is abused, the project creates chaos. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The Bible says we are made in God's image. The Old Man on the Throne concept has created a lot of chaos. God is male and female--Father and Mother-- and the male aspect of God--I AM That I AM--is Creative, and the female aspect of God--Lady Gaia--is Nurturing. We are all God's Children. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<ul>
<li>God sees us all as equal, </li>
<li>God grants us our unalienable rights, </li>
<li>God has declared this to be a free-will Universe, which means we are responsible for our choices and actions, and we must undo the damage we have done.</li>
<li>God is compassionate, and has sent the prophets to teach us the principles of each of the seven religions. We were not left to figure this out for ourselves. It was there all along, but we didn't see it.</li>
<li>God bases abundance on the principles of the cooperation of nature. It is not based on how much money we have. It is a matter of Will.</li>
<li>God gives us all our talents and gifts, and so no one is left out of the capacity to create their life.</li>
<li>God is tolerant, and does not judge us. God recognizes that we are the "acorn and the oak," and does not punish us or give us anything we cannot handle. </li>
</ul>
<div>
If you look at the World Peace Marketing Strategy, the second row starts with the Faith of the Pure Ray and the overview concept, and the second row addresses Christianity--coming up with a plan that benefit everyone. During our January two week training program, we must address the two rows of the Marketing Strategy--and the miracles classes. </div>
</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Our Conflict Resolution brochures address how to bring your children back into your life following a hostile divorce. You need someone to defend you, but who will you choose? God always gives us three choices--up, down, and straight ahead--the three levels of the Universe. Who will help us get our children back into our life, in terms of marriage partners? Life-partnerships enable us to function on a higher level. Let's say that marrying the high school sweetheart is straight ahead--and will eventually lead to the edge of the abyss. Romantic attachments turn into genocides, so that goes down into the power games of revenge, how we got into the problem in the first place.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
(Organization brochures can be found on our <a href="http://www.oneworldgov.org/">website</a> in the Reference Menu section.)</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Lifepartnerships are based on the fact that each of us has a vocation and an avocation, and one's vocation is the other's avocation, and they mentor each other. It is a very strong relationship, and it stands on the seven principles. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Our Tolerance brochure says to create a project, you must create a twelve-pointed star based on the principles of the cooperation of nature. Jesus and the other disciples formed a twelve-pointed star. They had created vocations and avocations, and found their lifepartners, and they came together to create a project that enabled everyone on the planet to function on a higher level. They were prophets of God, so they were connected to the source, and able to perform miracles.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Christianity teaches the principles of creating a plan that benefits everyone. Imagine male and female coming together and the female is nurturing and the male is creative. The male stands on the seven principles and fixes the family on a very high level. The female stands on the principles of Proverbs 31--a woman of noble character. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The second row of the World Peace Marketing Strategy is for people who must learn to assume responsibility for their own financial support. If we have gone down into the power games, the brochures is where we start to rebuild our life on a higher level. The miracles classes do not demonstrate divinity, but everyone plays the games, and overcoming the games and learning to function on a higher level can be considered a miracle! </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Our organization will eventually teach classes on how to do four miracles. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>

<br />
<br />
On December 26th, the Feast of St. Stephen is celebrated. He is considered the first martyr of the Christian Church. The story of St. Stephen is important, also, and is just as much about Creativity and the first stage of the planning process as the birth of Jesus of Nazareth.<br />
<br />
When you come up with a plan that benefits everyone, there are people whose perspective is narrower, and they resist the creation of the plan or even pirate it, because they rely on the existing structure for their security and support. They take your plan in the belief that they can do it better than you--they see in you what is inside of themselves, and they see lack of capacity--but when it becomes apparent that they don't understand the principles and the application of the principles, that is when they try to destroy it. You must stand on the principles of the planning process and keep walking forward to overcome the resistance.<br />
<br />
Stephen was a very spiritual man who stood on the principles, and so he was targeted by people who function outside of their capacity--people who play the games of Envy and Lust, and whose power is based on weaving an illusion. These pirates used covert and overt actions to undermine him.<br />
<br />
There must be a rationale for your plan, and so we are also looking at the opposing stages of Crisis in the Family and then Conflict Resolution.<br />
<br />
A glitch came up among the members of the early church--what to do about the widows and the children of the members. Stephen and a few other men assumed responsibility for the widows and children, but was this an honor or was the responsibility foisted on them? The plan should have been amended to be more fair and equitable than to turn such a huge financial responsibility over to a few men. The plan evolved to asking for donations from the people outside the members, possibly after the others saw how Stephen was defamed.<br />
<br />
How do we know he was defamed? Stephen was a spiritual man who stood on the principles and that triggered a character defamation campaign against him by those who function outside of their capacity. You cannot defend yourself from prejudice and ulterior motives, so he was accused of blasphemy against Moses, he went before the Sanhedrin to be officially judged, and was taken out and stoned.<br />
<br />
The story that has come down through history is that Mary Magdalene had seven demons. She played all seven of the Seven Deadly Sins power games, which are based on three fears. Her fears overcame her, and she compensated by playing the games of revenge, and she tore apart the city with her acts of mayhem. She was so far out of control that to stop her, the people tried to stone her. That is when Jesus stepped in and defended her. He had faced the darkness and temptation, too, and he assumed responsibility for helping her overcome her fears.<br />
<br />
The story has come down through history that Stephen was a spiritual man who assumed responsibility for the care of widows and children, but he was defamed, and while he was being judged, he prayed for his executioners, just as Jesus did.<br />
<br />
That brings Saul of Tarsus into the story. He stood and watched the stoning and did nothing to stop it. To stop a genocide--and character defamation is an individual form of genocide--someone must stand up and say stop. Saul had three choices. He could stop it by defending Stephen, which is what Jesus did with Mary Magdalene. He could ignore it and walk away. He could join the executioners. By ignoring the crisis, he passed it on to future generations--the widows and children.<br />
<br />
Christmas Day focuses on the male and female coming together to create a plan that benefits everyone. There was resistance to the plan. We know King Herod knew of the birth of a potential threat to his power, and that Joseph and Mary were driven out of the country.<br />
<br />
Today we look at the application of the plan, and the rationale for the plan. How can the plan benefit everyone? How can it solve the problems facing mankind? Who will assume responsibility for the work? How do you overcome the glitches? In the case of the widows and the children--<br />
<br />
Everyone must assume responsibility for his or her own financial support. Each of us was born with our talents and gifts. Our World Peace Marketing Strategy helps to solve that problem, and the Faith of the Pure Ray is the first step in assuming responsibility for our own financial foundation.<br />
<br />
There were twelve disciples who came together based on the principles of the cooperation of nature. They are the Flower of Life level, and that level is responsible for handling complaints. Each level teaches the principles of the plan to those who are the application of the principles.<br />
<br />
It becomes a family, and each generation is responsible for teaching the principles to the next generation.<br />

There is another star that is associated with Christmas--Christianity--and it is known by much smaller percentage of the people. It is the twelve-pointed star that is a symbol of the cooperation of nature.<br />
<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The principles of the cooperation of nature bring Light back into the world. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Imagine you have twelve people standing in a round room, equidistant apart, their backs to the wall and looking inward. They come together with a common goal, and that is to do what is in everyone's best interest--based on the principles of Christianity. The twelve disciples established a twelve-pointed star, and each one played a role in creating their plan based on the spiritual teachings they brought to their culture. When you look at the center hexagon--their plan--you see it is completely surrounded by Light. There is no room for darkness around their plan. Everyone working together, sharing their talents and gifts, allows everyone to function on a higher level.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
On the other hand, grabs for power always lead to a loss of power. Five people come together to form a Pentacle of Power, the symbol for revenge. It forms a five-pointed star, and the plot associated with revenge is surrounded entirely by darkness. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
For each of us to create the life we want, we must work within the Light. It is a creative substance. That darkness is not Creative. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
An example of this cooperation of nature concept is a bee hive. Bees make honey. Spiders, on the other hand, function entirely for their own interests. They don't make honey. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<br />
Christmas is only a few days away, and preparations are underway, but for students of the Faith of the Pure Ray, a final review of the lessons related to the principles of Taoism is important before we can start to work on the planning for the coming year as part of our Christian segment.<br />
<br />
My gift to you today is our <a href="http://www.oneworldgov.org/pdf/tolerance.pdf">Tolerance brochure,</a> which can be found on the organization website.<br />
<br />
According to our Light Source Invention, intolerance triggers acts of oppression, and when it goes unchecked, the conflict continues to devolve. The seven principles of equality, liberty, freedom, compassion, abundance, capacity and tolerance allow the conflicts to end, and bring the swinging pendulum back to the straight and narrow so everyone can walk forward to create the life each wants. Our plan for the coming year, and for the overview plan for the life we want, must stand on the principles or we will meet resistance. We start by standing on the principle of tolerance, and making a plan that stands on the other principles, and we can continue to walk forward in a way that every obstacle on the path becomes insignificant when we reach it. There is no resistance to the plan when you are doing what is in everyone's best interest.<br />

<br />
Looking at the cultural settings, when travel was difficult, especially during the winter months, it would make sense that Christmas would involve many days of feasting. Extending Christmas, as the birth of Jesus, to Epiphany, when the Three Kings arrived to give precious gifts to Jesus, makes even more sense when I include the Faith of the Pure Ray.<br />
<br />
I realized that time of celebration would be perfect for planning the entire new year's activities with our Flower of Life people--the Pure Ray people--and if the plans we work together to create benefit everyone, we would have the initial financial support for our projects.<br />
<br />
Planning the year's events and projects with our Flower of Life people insures everyone stands on the principles of the organization, and allows them to take their segment's projects forward.<br />
It also allows us to work with the next generations to enable them to have a solid foundation for their lives.<br />
<br />
We will introduce eight government proposals each year. In September, we can all come together and reassess our progress.<br />

As he did so, he yelled <i>"Allahu Akbar!"</i> God is Great! Authorities believe it is an act of terrorism. We don't know yet if this is an act sponsored by ISIS or an extremist Muslim functioning alone.<br />
<br />
With extreme acts of violence being perpetrated, what can restore a sense of tolerance and empowerment? <br />
<br />
Many Christians talk about the end times, and a prophecy for an end-times event known the Rapture. "Two will be sitting in a field, and one will be taken and the other left behind." Because of their belief in God, they believe they will be the saved. Artists interpret the Rapture as a being a time when Christians are lifted up into the Heavens. Many people all over the world believe in God, and each has his or her own cultural interpretation of their relationship with their Creator, so there is resistance to that plan.<br />
<br />
Many Muslims talk about the end times, too, and have a prophecy for the rise of a global caliphate, and the caliph is someone who will become the leader of the entire world, and they believe that individual is, of course, a Muslim. ISIS is working to instate their interpretation of the caliphate as a global empire, and their caliph as the leader of the entire world. There is resistance to that plan, also.<br />
<br />
There is an element of the unknown about the end times. No one really knows when or how it can come. Will it be the end of the Earth? At our prayer circle, we were taught the spirit moves in cycles, and it is the end of the cycle. In one prophecy of the rise of the caliphate, it says Christianity and Islam will come together, and both religions speak of their religion as being for all people.<br />
<br />
Both Christianity and Islam were written for all people, but it is not a matter of forcing others to go along with one religion. The fulfillment of both prophecies is the Faith of the Pure Ray. The rise to Heaven is the planet is making our ascension from the third dimension to the fourth, and to do what, we must let go of the power games, known as the Seven Deadly Sins. Those who can't will be left behind.<br />

<br />
With acts of revenge, if you can take what belongs to someone else, you can own that person, and the principle that counters that is tolerance. Have you had any experiences that are similar to what they are doing so you can empathize with them?<br />
<br />
Speaking from personal experience, I understood how making one comment can tear apart your life, and this is something my fiercest adversary and I have in common.<br />
<br />
What do our guides say?<br />
<br />
In Queen Victoria's book, "Transformation to a New You," she says that same thing, that one comment can destroy your life, and in "Who Do You Trust?" by Lady Gaia, she differentiates between the devil and demons, and says the devil is someone who is dragging you backwards in your progress. In "A Little Angel Told Me," Archangel Michael says the end of life crisis is like playing poker with the devil, and you only have a pair of sevens... but the devil doesn't even have that."<br />
<br />
When you create a plan, the conflict ends when your adversaries reach this point, where they are in the support level. You are demonstrating that it is possible to get the life you want--based on sharing your talents and gifts, and so if you can do it, so can they.Karen Holmeshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01973992314019746365noreply@blogger.com
