The Purpose of You and Me

noreply@blogger.com (cassie) — Mon, 30 Nov 2009 16:10:00 +0000

Are we undergoing an alchemical transformation?

It seems so, in fact in a way of what it means to be human, says Michelle L. Casto, a Soul Coach expert I´ve recently met on Twitter. "Traditionally, we have held two world views: material and mystical. I believe we will be moving beyond a dualistic world view to a holistic worldview where everything---light, dark, material and mystical unify and harmonize."

A Course in Miracles teaches that welfare of the world depends on you learning. Learning what you might ask? Learning to live a higher life and learning to actualize your humanity and mature into your divinity.

The time for spiritual education is here. We can no longer cast a blind eye to the ills, wrongs, and general ignorance of our current reality. It is time for an end of the ego and the rise of the Soul.

Many prophecies about the Shift of Consciousness that is occurring between now and 2012 have emerged from ancient traditions of the Mayans, Hopi, Zulu. With this ending of a cycle comes a sense of loss and the opportunity for massive expansion.

A new consciousness is being birthed on the planet, I call it the Age of the Soul, because inner lights are being awakened and activated, causing humanity to grow its angel wings. We are blessed with the very real opportunity to ascend higher up the evolutionary scale, where we can experience our own version of heaven on earth.

As you begin to know yourself, you begin to master yourself.
As you begin to master yourself, you begin to recreate your reality
based on your soul's longings and desires.

You have everything you need to be a pioneer in this new age of practical spirituality. The good news is that the divine you is not something you need to create. God already did that. The divine you is the light and love that you are. Your job is to clear the blockages so you can shine bright.

The New energy arriving on planet Earth requires a new and upgraded human being, (an upgrade from Second Life to Eternal Life - cassie says :-)
one in sync with their soul’s purpose and strong in loving presence, a divine human.
Now more than ever we are called to trust our inner knowing and make spiritually smart life decisions. We live in an era that is inspiring souls to awaken and take action.

We are here to do a great work because the mind that created us
knew what it wanted us to do when it created us.
-- Raymond Barker

Let everyone get in their destined place. It’s time to for us to unite and create a bright new reality. This work requires the heart, hands, and intentions of as many people as possible. We will need to create new solutions to modern-day problems, and be called upon to work together collaboratively.

So lets see: What is this thing called The Soul?
The soul is the spiritual essence behind your physical form. It is eternal, unlimited, and connected to Infinite Intelligence. It knows who we are, why we are here, and where we are going. C.S. Lewis so eloquently puts it: “You do not have a soul. You are a soul. You have a body.”

Thus it is no accident that You are here on Earth at this time of the Great Shift in Consciousness (or the fact that you are reading this). The divine’s plan for salvation includes you. You are at a choice point. Will you choose to ascend or remain stagnant?

What do you think when you think…
” if others saw the real me, they would ?”

Hopefully your answer will be
“they would be blinded by my light!”,
as Marianne Williamsen stated!

Your answer to this question surely reveals how ready you are to show up and shine.
When we can see ourselves as divine, light and love filled beings with wisdom to share, gifts to bring, then we can see it in others.

So it’s the divine time for YOU to:

Reclaim your divine inheritance
Accept that you are anointed and appointed to do great things.
Take action on your desires and dreams.
Shine your bright light.

Our greatest opportunity will be to stand in our true power and glory—to radiate our light for all to see, no more turning it down so others won’t feel uncomfortable or holding back our power and presence.

In this great awakening, Truth will be revealed and most especially masks will be removed. Games and manipulations will be seen for what they are and the reign of the ego will end.

I absolutely know and experience my brilliant
and illuminated mind.
~
Light energy from heaven guides my path and
from here my genius shines brightly.
(affirmation for every day)

Socrates said that the purpose of life is the enlightenment of the soul vs the pursuit of materialism that leads to darkness. Since much of our history has been about the accumulation of things, it seems natural that in this Age of Soul, for a deep change to occur in where and how we find our happiness.

I hold the belief that the curriculum for our enlightenment has been set by our soul and that LIFE gives us the opportunities to collect the keys to our eternal wisdom.

In life, we experience 3 major challenges:
Power-oriented—making a stand/being courageous
Love---expressing and receiving love
Intellect---developing our mind and creating things.

Use these 3 Keys to reach Your Divine Kingdom
we can grow into our expanded self & fulfill our divine destiny in each of these areas and more.
Key 1: Conscious Learning
Learning is the connection for your soul’s evolution. Knowing yourself is understanding both your personality and your divinity and creating a life that harmonizes with both aspects of your Self. Along the way, you may learn lessons, however, the main thing is to learn to be a conscious creator and masterfully apply the skills of cognition and choice to manifest a reality that you adore.

Key 2: Soul Purpose

To discover and live one’s soul purpose is essential to your well being. Look within at your desires, dreams, aspirations, and longings that you carry in your heart of hearts.
Ask not, Can I do it? But Will I enjoy it? Ask not, What can I get, Ask, What Can I give?

Fulfilling your purpose means creating a pathway to your soul’s highest happiness and inner fulfillment, which can be expressed in 3 ways—universal purpose, personal purpose, and professional purpose.

Key 3: Conscious Creation
Understanding the idea that thoughts are things is the first step to re-creating your reality. Harnessing the laws of the universe such as law of attraction, law of action, law of reciprocity, law of intention, etc will make this effortless.

The first and most important step is to make the decision to be happy and successful. Keep in mind, the brain does not make the human, the human makes the brain by what he thinks about, focuses on, and what he allows to influence his thinking.

500 Euro Kindergrunsicherung pro Monat - Jetzt!

noreply@blogger.com (cassie) — Wed, 13 May 2009 13:16:00 +0000

Mindestens! Millionen unserer Kinden gehen "ohne" Frühstück in die Schule!
2,47 Euro darf eine 16-Jährige im Monat für Zahnpasta, Shampoo und Seife ausgeben. Für 2,21 Euro im Monat darf ein 17-Jähriger sich Hefte und Stifte kaufen. Für Bildungsausgaben sieht das Budget, das Kinder von Hartz IV-Empfänger bekommen, 0 Euro, in Worten: Null Euro.

So arm sind mehr als 2,4 Millionen Kinder in unserem reichen Land. Und weitere 1,5 Millionen Kinder, deren Eltern zu tariffreien Dumping-Löhnen arbeiten, liegen knapp über dem Niveau des staatlichen Sozialgeldes.

Gegen skandalöse Armut

Wir fordern einen mutigen Systemwechsel und 500 Euro Grundsicherung für jedes Kind im Monat“, sagte Christiane Reckmann, Präsidiumsmitglied der AWO und Vorsitzende des Zukunftsforums Familie (ZFF) zum Auftakt des "Bündnis Kindergrundsicherung".

"In jedem 6. deutschen Kinderzimmer spielt die Armut mit", kritisiert Axel Plaue, der Vorsitzende der AWO Bezirksverband Hannover e.V. "Das heißt, dass Millionen Kinder ohne Frühstück in die Schule gehen. Dass zum Beispiel "Lisa", die das Pech hat, dass ihr Papa langzeitarbeitslos ist, niemanden zum Kindergeburtstag einladen kann. Dass sie keine Musikschule besucht und den Sportverein meidet, weil sie sich den einheitlichen Trainingsanzug nicht leisten kann. Es heißt, dass Lisa nur eine 20-prozentige Chance hat, Abitur zu machen. Dass sie viel eher zu den 70 000 Kindern gehört, die jedes Jahr die Schule ohne Abschluss verlassen."

Die AWO fordert deshalb schon lange einen kostenfreien Zugfang zu allen Bildungseinrichtungen. Das Konzept der Kindergrundsicherung des Bündnisses von sieben Verbänden und sechs namhaften Wissenschaftlern ist das mutigste und beste für alle Kinder.

Die Kindergrundsicherung von 500 Euro im Monat errechnet sich durch das vom Bundesverfassungsgericht festgestellte sächliche Existenzminimum von 322 Euro im Monat. Plus den ebenfalls höchstrichterlich festegestellten Kosten für Betreuung, Erziehung und Ausbildung von monatlich 180 Euro.

Hier ist Ihre Einladung zum
Spendenmarathon am 04. Juli 2009

Für die Gesamtkosten von brutto rund 100 Milliarden Euro im Jahr, hat das "Bündnis Kindergrundsicherung" eine Finanzierung errechnet, die alle bisherigen Leistungen der Familienförderung zusammenfasst, beispielsweise das Ehegattensplitting als Förderung des puren Trauscheins abschafft und die neue, einheitliche Kindergrundsicherung der Einkommensbesteuerung unterlegt - womit Gutverdiener weniger als Niedrigverdiener bekommen und Bedürftige den vollen Satz.

"Es bleibt eine Finanzierungslücke von rund 10 Milliarden Euro, die eine Frage des politischen Gestaltungswillens und der Prioritätensetzung ist", sagte Axel Plaue und forderte die Parteien im Superwahljahr auf, Farbe zu bekennen.

Über die AWO
Der AWO Bezirksverband Hannover e.V., in der Mitte Niedersachsens, ist einer der großen Bezirksverbände der Arbeiterwohlfahrt im gesamten Bundesgebiet mit 19 Kreisverbänden und ca. 23.000 Mitgliedern und erstreckt sich von Hannoversch Münden bis Cuxhaven.

In den verschiedensten Einrichtungen von den Kindertagesstätten, Krankenhäusern, Kurkliniken, sozialpsychiatrischen Angeboten bis hin zu den Seniorenzentren - sowie in den 19 Kreisverbänden - arbeiten ca. 2.800 hauptamtliche Mitarbeiterinnen und Mitarbeiter, die durch ca. 3.600 ehrenamtliche Mitarbeiterinnen und Mitarbeiter in der Arbeit vor Ort unterstützt werden. Die Arbeiterwohlfahrt ist ein anerkannter Spitzenverband der Freien Wohlfahrtspflege, in dem sich Frauen und Männer zusammengeschlossen haben, um eine fortschrittliche Arbeit zu fördern.

Das sozialethische Fundament und der unverwechselbare sozialpolitische Hintergrund der AWO beruhen auf den in der Tradition der Arbeiterbewegung verankerten Grundwerten Freiheit, Gleichheit, Gerechtigkeit, Toleranz und Solidarität. Im Vordergrund allen Handelns steht der Mensch mit seinen individuellen Fähigkeiten.

Gilian Anderson: Stop Animal Experiments asap!

noreply@blogger.com (cassie) — Sat, 09 May 2009 14:48:00 +0000

english/german article:

X-Files Actress Gilian Andersons writes email to the EU Parliament (!)

She is claiming to stop scientific animal experiments by June 2009 and to replace those no-longer needed thus crucial experiments asap with the latest invented and unharming technologies in scientific research.

Bravo! See, read, act.

Dear Member of the European Parliament,

I am writing urgently on behalf of PETA to ask you to stop Europe returning to the darkest days of vivisection. I urge you to act in the interests of compassion when MEPs vote on the proposed directive on the protection of animals used in scientific procedures.

I have been dismayed to learn of proposals introduced to the draft legislation which will have a devastating effect on animal welfare and completely prevent governments from effectively regulating animal experiments on behalf of the citizens of the European Union. Please vote to protect animals, promote good science and ensure proper oversight in the First Reading of the proposed directive in May.

To reflect the deep concerns of European citizens, it is vital that the directive at the very least do the following:

• Promote effective, humane and relevant methods to replace animal experiments. This must be at the heart of EU policy.

• Ensure that no experiments are conducted on animals unless a licence is issued by government authorities in advance (this is already the law in many European countries and is vital for animals' protection).

• Ensure that no animal is ever exposed to severe, prolonged pain.

• Make real progress towards ending the use of all non-human primates in experiments and take decisive action to completely end the trapping of wild monkeys to supply the vivisection industry.

We must not return to a "free-for-all" in which there is almost no effective control of what takes place behind closed laboratory doors. Twelve million dogs, cats, mice, rabbits, monkeys, horses and other animals suffer and are killed in experiments in the EU every year.

I am certain that the overwhelming majority of EU citizens would be as horrified as I was to learn that their elected representatives were considering washing their hands of those animals, leaving millions of them with little or no legal protection whatsoever.

Please vote in favour of progress and compassion. Please contact me (through PETA) to let me know how you intend to vote on this critical issue.

Thank you for your time and consideration. I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Sincerely,

Inspiring Action

Who wants to write a similar letter we all will sign in the name of tweeters unite
and will send it to the EU ?
If you agree with Gilian Anderson - and we believe you are well informed - why not make an impact and aid the desperates: Send her letter around to your friends to raise higher awareness and to help end animal mistreatment in the very near future.

Gilian Anderson deckt unheimliche Fälle einer EU-weiten "Laborverschwörung" auf.

Die Emmy-Gewinnerin hilft der Tierrechtsorganisation PETA Europe dabei, eine waschechte "Verschwörung" aufzudecken, in der Mitglieder der Europäischen Union (EU) den Tierschutz in Versuchslabors zu reduzieren versuchen. Ca. 12 Millionen Tiere werden innerhalb Europas jedes Jahr in Laboratorien eingesetzt und getötet.

Die Europäische Kommission hat einen Gesetzesvorschlag vorgelegt, der Tierschutzstandards in Laborexperimenten innerhalb der EU noch niedriger ansetzen will. Gillian Anderson hat sich als große Tierfreundin deshalb im Namen von PETA Europe an alle Mitglieder des Europaparlaments (MEPs) gewandt und sie gebeten, sich für die Tiere und die Wissenschaft einzusetzen und sicherzustellen, dass die Direktive effektive Alternativmethoden zum Tierversuch fördert, und somit die Versuchs-Tiere davor bewahrt, schwerwiegenden und lang anhaltenden Schmerzen ausgesetzt zu sein.

Eine Einladung von jemandem, der Dich kennenlernen will

noreply@blogger.com (cassie) — Sat, 09 May 2009 01:31:00 +0000

Es ist nicht wichtig für mich, wie Du Dein Geld verdienst.
Ich möchte wissen, ob Du es wagst, der Sehnsucht Deines Herzens zu folgen

Es ist nicht wichtig für mich, wie alt Du bist.
Ich möchte wissen, ob Du Dich traust, wie ein Narr auszusehen, weil Du Diene Liebe zeigst, Deine Träume lebst und wirklich lebendig bist.

Ich möchte wissen, ob Du Dein eigenes Leid umarmen kannst, ob Du durch die Lektionen des Lebens offener geworden bist, oder ob Du Dich verschlossen hast aus Angst vor neuem Leid.

Ich möchte wissen, ob Du mit Schmerz umgehen kannst, meinem oder Deinem Schmerz, ohne ihn verstecken, verändern oder überspielen zu müssen.

Ich möchte wissen, ob Du voller Freude sein kannst, meiner oder Deiner Freude, ob Du voller Wildheit tanzen kannst, ob Du die Ekstase von Deinen Fusssohlen bis zu Deinen Haarspitzen fliessen lassen kannst.

Es ist nicht wichtig für mich, ob die Geschichte, die Du mir erzählst wahr ist.

Ich möchte wissen, ob Du jemand enttäuschen kannst, wenn es wichtig ist, Dir selbst treu zu bleiben. Ob Du mit Verrat umgehen kannst, ohne Deine eigene Seele zu verraten.

Ich möchte wissen, ob ich Dir vertrauen kann, ob Du mein Vertrauen wert bist.

Ich möchte wissen, ob Du dann noch die Schönheit in allem sehen kannst, wenn es nicht jeden Tag schön ist. Und ob Du aus der Quelle des grossen Geistes trinken kannst.

Ich möchte wissen, ob Du mit Fehlern umgehen kannst, Deinen und meinen Fehlern und zugleich am Ufer eines Sees stehen kannst und dem Silber des vollen Mondes ein lautes "Ja" entgegen brüllen kannst.

Es ist nicht wichtig für mich, wo Du lebst und wieviel Geld Du besitzt.

Ich möchte wissen, ob Du nach einer Nacht voller Streit, Kummer und Verzweiflung, zermürbt und erschöpft bist bis auf die Knochen, aufstehen kannst und für die Kinder das tun, was getan werden muss.

Es ist nicht wichtig für mich, wer Du bist oder wie Du hierher gekommen bist.

Ich möchte wissen, ob Du mit mir im Zentrum des Feuers stehen kannst, ohne zurückzuschrecken.

Es ist nicht wichtig für mich, wo, was oder mit wem Du studiert hast.

Ich möchte wissen, ob Du mit Dir selbst alleine sein kannst. Ich möchte wissen, was von Dir übrig bleibt, wenn alles Äussere von Dir abfällt.

Kissing the mirror. Falls back on floor. Rolls over.

How to Magically Transform Your Life & Relationships

noreply@blogger.com (cassie) — Thu, 30 Apr 2009 16:41:00 +0000

- submitted for tweeters unite by Love Coach Dawn Allen -

My boyfriend, Paul, and I recently reunited after separating a few months ago. I couldn't be happier. Since I did not want to make the same mistake twice, I've given a lot of thought to what happened to break us apart the first time.

When we originally started dating, I had only been divorced a few months. My ex-husband and I were still sorting out our post-marriage relationship. Although Paul and I tried to venture slowly into our new relationship, we didn't succeed.

Our relationship moved ahead very quickly. It wasn't a conscious act on either of our parts. Falling into a deep relationship happened quite easily because we cared so deeply about one another.

However, after a few months, I was emotionally overwhelmed. The stresses of still doing my ex-husband's bookkeeping, raising my daughter alone, running my business, and starting a new relationship, spread my time and energy so thin that I wasn't giving anything or anyone my full attention. Everything and everyone suffered as a result.

I may be a Love and Relationship Coach for other people, but it doesn't mean I can always see my own stuff. That is why coaches have coaches. And thank God, I have mine.

Unfortunately, I didn't realize what I was doing until the damage was done. Paul received the brunt of walking through the minefield of my emotions. I realized I had two choices. Either end our romantic relationship, or continue trouncing his feelings because I was so emotionally ill equipped to be seriously involved with anyone.

The last thing I wanted to do was hurt Paul any more than I already had, so we ended our romantic involvement. He understood. He could see what was happening to me. It didn't end my feelings for him, however. In fact, they only grew stronger the longer I was away from him. I realized more and more what a wonderful man he truly was.

I dated a few nice men who I enjoyed very much, but truthfully, no one compared to Paul. Besides missing him in general, I also really missed dancing Argentine Tango with him, which he had taught me when we were together.

I asked Paul periodically during the time we were apart if he would consider dancing with me as a friend, but his emotions were still too raw for comfort. This time, I understood. It's not fun when you hurt someone you love. I had hurt Paul and it hurt me just to think about it.

But think about it I did.

It's very true that how we do anything, is how we do everything. I didn't particularly like how I was doing anything. It all seemed very scattered. I was distracted most of the time, and there wasn't any depth to anything I was doing. Everything felt shallow.

I knew that if I was ever going to have a great romantic relationship, I had to look at myself and how I related to everyone. I wanted to learn how to become present in everything I did, but especially in my relationships.

I started by de-cluttering my life. I quit doing my ex-husband's bookkeeping (too many ties to the past, something my coaches had been telling me for months), narrowed the focus of my work and, most importantly, took my own advice.

I learned how to pay attention and stay present to what I was doing and who I was with. I forced myself to do just one thing at a time, which truthfully I never thought I'd be able to do. It always seemed like there were way too many things to do and not enough time to do them.

But, I learned that by focusing on only one thing at a time, I did everything better. My relationships improved. Instead of trying to rush through conversations with my daughter or my mother, so I could move to the next thing on my list,

I stopped whatever I was doing and listened. I stopped interrupting, because I wasn't always jumping ahead to what I thought was coming next. I paid attention to what was being said, gave the other person time to finish their thought, and then responded.

My life transformed. I was more relaxed. I was happier. This translated to my not only doing better work, but also getting more work done in a shorter period of time.

Weeks later, Paul and I went to lunch. He noticed the difference in me immediately. He said there was an openness and generosity about me that hadn't been there before. ‘A generosity of spirit' is how he described it.

That's exactly how I felt. Open and generous... to life, to Paul, to everything. This time, my heart was completely open and ready to share.

A few days later, Paul and I danced together. It was as if we were transported back to the very first time we danced... every magical, passionate feeling we had for each other came flooding back.

After we danced, Paul took my hand and we sat down. We talked about what we had both learned while we were apart. Then, he asked if I might like to date again. After I said yes, we talked about what we would do differently this time.

As I jabbered on about how happy I was, Paul mentioned I should probably stop talking because he had stopped listening to me about five minutes earlier. He leaned over and kissed me. It was as if time stood still. There was no past. There was no future to worry about. There was only that moment to be cherished, treasured, and enjoyed.

John Lennon once said, "Life is what happens to you while you're busy making other plans." Don't let life happen to you. Live each moment in the present, and watch your life and relationships magically transform. I wish you a life filled with many, many magical moments to be cherished, treasured, and enjoyed.

Build lasting relationships!

This weekend, Joel and I celebrated 22 wonderful years of marriage. When I think about it, I can hardly believe it's been that long! So many people ask us all the time, "How do you do it? What’s your secret? Do you ever fight?" Well, Joel and I are as human as any other couple, but early on in our relationship we made some decisions about how we would treat each other and how we would respond to one another.

First of all, Joel and I choose to respect one another. We value each other's thoughts and opinions, and we make sure to listen and consider what the other has to say. We don't always agree on everything, but we do agree that we want peace in our home. Sometimes that means we have to simply agree to disagree. In other words, we can still respect and love each other even when we don't see eye to eye.

Another decision we made early in our relationship is to support one another. We recognize that we are a team and whatever we decide to do, we do it together. Anytime we had a financial goal, we both did our part to save money. If we were remodeling a house, I was right there with him laying sod in the yard. When we were building our home, I was there every day to meet the subcontractors and help keep us on schedule. When Joel became pastor of the church, I did my part in the service as well.

As our lives have evolved over the years, we've both been willing to do whatever it takes to keep our connection strong with one another. For example, several years ago when we assumed leadership at the ministry, our lives became fuller and more complicated. Oftentimes, we'd find ourselves moving in different directions. We had to make an extra effort to connect with each other throughout the day. If we weren't careful, we could easily find ourselves breezing right by each other, our minds preoccupied with the tasks at hand. Instead, each time we passed, we chose to acknowledge each other–to make a connection. Sometimes we high five, sometimes it's a quick "I love you," and occasionally, he'll plant a kiss right on my lips. It's not important how we connect, but it is important that we do connect. We are both busy people. We both have a lot going on, but whenever we see each other, everything else is placed on hold for a moment while we connect.

I encourage you today to treasure the people in your life. Be willing to make adjustments to improve your relationships. Respect one another and don't hold on to offenses. Keep the connections strong. You may be going through a difficult time right now, but remember, there are better days ahead in your future. The difficulty may be for a season, but your relationship is for a lifetime. Keep the right perspective. Remember, people are God's priority, and when we make the people in our life our priority, we are taking steps towards building lasting relationships.

A friend loves at all times… (Proverbs 17:7).

Thank you so much for your wonderful insights!

Tweeters Unite: Deutsche Lebensbrücke

noreply@blogger.com (cassie) — Wed, 29 Apr 2009 10:52:00 +0000

"Wo Wege nicht mehr möglich sind, schlagen wir Brücken" - unter diesem Motto arbeitet die Deutsche Lebensbrücke seit ihrer Gründung vor 20 Jahren. 1989 - 2009 weltweite, humanitäre Hilfsaktionen.

Mit Hilfe von Spenden
finanziert die Deutsche Lebensbrücke in deutschen Großstädten wie München, Berlin, Stuttgart, Leipzig und Hamburg z.B. kostenlose warme Mahlzeiten, Kochkurse und andere Bildungsangebote für sozial schwache Kinder. Denn Kinderarmut hat viele Gesichter: Schlechte Ernährung, mangelnde Bildung, fehlende menschliche Wärme und gesellschaftliche Isolation. Ob bei der Wiederaufbauhilfe von Kinder- und Waisenhäusern in Sachsen-Anhalt und von Krankenhäusern in Osteuropa, ob bei Hilfen für krebskranke Kinder, ob bei der Betreuung von Straßenkindern in St. Petersburg - immer sind engagierte Mitglieder und Prominente vor Ort und bewegen so auch andere Menschen, etwas gegen Not und Elend in aller Welt zu unternehmen.

Präsident der privaten Hilfsorganisation: Prinz Eduard von Anhalt
Sein Engagement gilt Familien, die unverschuldet in Not geraten sind und sich aus eigener Kraft nicht mehr helfen können. Motto der "Lebensbrücke" ist es, sinnvolle Hilfe zu leisten und außerdem Wege zur Selbsthilfe aufzuweisen. Ein Projekt der "Lebensbrücke" liegt dem traditionsbewussten Prinzen besonders am Herzen: In St. Petersburg, der Stadt seiner Vorfahrin Katharina der Großen, die aus dem Fürstentum Anhalt-Zerbst stammte und an den Zarenhof heiratete, engagiert sich der Verein für kranke und sozialschwache Familien. Die Lebensbrücke ist Mitglied im Deutschen Spendenrat seit 1995.

Das Adelshaus Anhalt-Askanien blickt auf eine 1.000-jährige Geschichte zurück. Jüngstes Oberhaupt ist Eduard Prinz von Anhalt. Er ist mit nahezu allen Fürstenhäusern Europas verwandt - und er ist der Cousin von Prinz Charles. Prinz Eduard ist mit Corinna Prinzessin von Anhalt verheiratet. Das Paar hat drei Töchter.

MITMACHEN
Wenn auch Sie oder Ihr Unternehmen eine Lebensbrücke sein möchten, bietet Ihnen der Verein in unterschiedlichster Form Gelegenheit dazu, z.B.

Spenden statt Präsente
Firmenpatenschaft für ein bestimmtes Projekt
Werbebanner schalten
Kooperationen oder Sponsoring
Einzelspende

Lebensbrücke-Projekte 2009

Mehr als 2 Millionen Kinder unter 16 Jahren in Deutschland wissen, wie sich Armut anfühlt. Kinderarmut in Deutschland ist heute keine Ausnahme mehr und betrifft nicht nur soziale Randgruppen. Ob das reiche München oder der soziale Brennpunkt Berlin, die Zahlen in den Berichten über Armut sprechen eine deutliche Sprache.

Kinder- & Jugendfarm "Ramersdorf"
http://www.lebensbruecke.de/index.php?id=107

Das Besondere dieser Einrichtung ist, dass großer Wert auf gesunde und ausgewogene Ernährung gelegt wird. Es wird nicht nur mit biologischen Lebensmitteln gekocht, sondern im großen Aussenbereich der Einrichtung wird Gemüse selbst angebaut. Die Kinder lernen so, wie aus einem unscheinbaren Samen eine köstliche Karotte oder ein toller Riesenkürbis wird. Mittlerweile sind auch alle Tiere eingezogen: 4 Zwergziegen, 6 Hühner, 8 Hasen, 5 Meerschweinchen und 5 Laufenten. So lernen die Kinder eine Menge über Pflanzen und Tiere und natürlich auch Verantwortung für sich selbst und die Tiere zu übernehmen.

Die Deutsche Lebensbrücke würde auch gerne die Hausaufgabenbetreuung übernehmen,
dafür fehlen uns aber noch die Mittel.

Familien in Not
http://www.lebensbruecke.de/index.php?id=109

Immer wieder erfahren wir von beinahe unglaublichen Sckisalen von Familien aus Deutschland.
Das Schlimmste ist: Niemand ist bereit, diesen verzweifelten Menschen zu helfen. Die Deutsche Lebensbrücke greift auch Menschen finanziell unter die Arme, damit diese wieder ein glückliches Leben führen können. Jeder hat es verdient, auf der Sonnenseite des Lebens zu stehen. Dafür bauen wir Brücken und finden Wege. Wir wünschen uns, das diese Familien ihr Schicksal meistern können.

Die Nische
http://www.lebensbruecke.de/index.php?id=106

Berlin-Kreuzberg/Friedrichshain ist einer der sozialen Brennpunkte in Deutschland: Kulturen aus verschiedensten Ländern leben hier auf engstem Raum zusammen. Die Deutsche Lebensbrücke unterstützt hier die Freizeiteinrichtung "Die Nische",ein Projekt für Kinder aus sozial benachteiligten Familien. Hier können Kinder mittags essen und sich auf dem Gelände so richtig austoben. Dafür benötigen wir Ihre Unterstützung, Ihre Spende für dieses wunderbare Projekt. Denn der Mensch lebt nicht allein vom Mittagessen, sondern auch von sozialen Kontakten in einer Gemeinschaft.

Tweeters Unite: Givts from the Universe

noreply@blogger.com (cassie) — Thu, 09 Apr 2009 11:59:00 +0000

A few months ago I was invited by a friend to join something called the TUT Adventurers Club by visiting www.tut.com and taking "the oath," which begins, "In the face of adversity, uncertainty and conflicting sensory information, I hereby pledge to remain ever mindful of the magical, infinite, loving reality I live in - a reality that conspires tirelessly in my favor."

The oath continues for another paragraph, but I got the gist and decided to sign up, deciding it couldn't hurt and that I have a lust for anything smacking of self-improvement anyway. Since then, I have received regular e-mails with the subject heading "TUT: A note from the universe." For the most part, these little messages have been uplifting, challenging and loving. It as never occurred to me that with a single mouse click I could unsubscribe from the Universe itself. I need all the help I can get.

After a while, I began browsing the actual TUT Web site, and I became intrigued by Mike Dooley, the guy who put all of this together. I noticed that he had a couple of books in the offing, Lost in Space (TUT $5.95) and Totally Unique Thoughts: Reminders of Life's Everyday Magic (TUT $8.95). I was most interested in a 12 CD set called Infinite Possibilities: The Art of Living Your Dreams (TUT $129.40), which is a full 12 hours of Dooley himself laying out his compelling philosophical take on what he calls the "Truths of Being." I had to take a chance, so I approached Dooley for a copy of the CD set and both books.

Twelve hours of audio is daunting in itself, but having been a fan of the "big boys" like Anthony Robbins, Wayne Dyer, Earl Nightingale, et al, I came away with the realization that Dooley is the most literate and professorial of them all. Even in casual conversational tones he betrays a dazzling intellect. His "thoughts become things" premise is used as a point of departure into everything else he covers here, and that is quite a lot: beliefs, relationships, reincarnation, angels, soul mates, UFOs, ghosts, visualization, etcetera. With Dooley, it is all about "bulldozing our limitations" and creating our own realities. We have the power to choose, we write the script ourselves, and "sin is nothing more than an honest mistake." Thankfully, Dooley reminds us that we can never manipulate others with any sort of mumbo-jumbo. It just doesn't work.

"Don't just see the magic, engage it! Challenge it! Dare it!
Dream big, with every expectation that your dreams will manifest.
Demand that they come true!
*
You're not beholden to life, life is beholden to you.
You are its reason for being. You came first."
- Mike Dooley

Dooley was raised a Catholic, but soon started to feel alienated by all of the dogma. He feels that Jesus was misrepresented. He holds that the Bible is full of "mind-blowing insights and parables" but could prove to be misleading. I enjoyed the references to the old biblical adage "as a man thinketh in his heart, so is he," but I thought James Allen and Napoleon Hill had that concept sown up. Dooley goes beyond this by telling his audience "as one believes so shall one think." An interesting slant.

Cornerstone to this philosophy is the enticing thought that anything is possible, and that the Universe itself conspires to make our thoughts reality, with the caveat that one shouldn't try too hard. We must let go a bit more and let the Universe do its job.

I found myself speculating as to why none of the heavy hitters in the self-improvement industry are taking Dooley under their wings. My theory is that Dooley is much more of an entrepreneur than I suspected, or that he is simply too intellectually elite than the others and is an untouchable to all of those Chicago or Madison Avenue types. Does Dooley's professorial approach shoot him in the foot or does this enrich his coffers more than I can comprehend?

The site itself (www.tut.com) is a model of e-commerce, is simple to navigate, and gives another insight into why Dooley doesn't have to deal with third parties: control! Launched in 1989 by Dooley, his graphic artist brother Andy (www.andydooley.com) and their mother, author cum screenwriter Sheelagh Mawe, TUT began as a T-shirt company, originally selling these from sidewalk carts, kiosks, etcetera - and eventually garnering stores at bigger malls and wholesaling to companies like Macy's and Disney World. This phase of the business closed in 1999. In July 2000, TUT's Adventurers Club was launched. The site boasts not only online shopping, but free discussion groups called e-Safaris, and will eventually host actual adventures to exotic, faraway lands. Infinite Possibilities proves Dooley to be the most literate and professional of all inspirational self-betterment gurus.

Dooley favors the Swahili greeting, "Jambo," and has morphed it to mean "glad our paths have crossed in this most amazing of all adventures called life." I am glad as well, and I believe the man is on to something. We need to see - that the truth is at our fingertips.

The idea is to create an avenue for TUT's Adventurers Club members to speak with one voice, one heart, and one focus by contributing $1 (or more if you can) per month to a designated "cause" in need of our support. On the 1st of each month, we will feature a link in the daily "Note from the Universe" to one outstanding, non-profit organization that we wholeheartedly support and believe in.

We have donated US $ 100 today

Tweeters Unite: Stephen Frey

noreply@blogger.com (cassie) — Thu, 09 Apr 2009 11:55:00 +0000

It is fantasy that makes things up and fantasy is quite another thing.
Imagination is the ability to enter someone else’s mind. To penetrate another’s
experience. To feel what another feels: to see the world as they see it,
to suffer their pain, participate in their sins and in their triumphs,
loves, fears and hopes.

Everything we know is wrong.

Wrong. Wrong, wronger, wrongest.

Imagination is a product of memory and sympathy.
Some have it, just as some have perfect pitch or athletic hand-eye coordination.
Or maybe some can be trained to have it, I don’t know.
A paradox is that it seems harder to penetrate one’s own mind,
participate in one’s own experience and discover one’s own
feelings than those of another.

Chapeau, Stephen Frey!

Tweeters Unite: Charity Water

noreply@blogger.com (cassie) — Thu, 09 Apr 2009 11:51:00 +0000

Just more than two years ago I left the streets of New York City for the shores of West Africa. I'd made my living for years in the big Apple promoting top nightclubs and fashion events, for the most part living selfishly, thoughtlessly. Unhappy, I desperately needed a change in my life.

I asked myself.... What did the opposite of my life look like?

Service aboard a floating hospital with Mercy Ships, a humanitarian organization which offered free medical care in the world's poorest nations. Through surgery ships.They'd been doing it for more than 25 years, producing astonishing results -

and I'd never heard of them. Top doctors and surgeons from all over the world left their practices and fancy lives to operate for free on thousands who had no access to medical care. The organization I soon found to be full of remarkable people. The chief medical officer was a surgeon who left Los Angeles to volunteer for two weeks - 19 years ago. He never looked or went back.

I was offered the position of ship photojournalist, and immediately traveled to Africa. At first, being the Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's court felt strange. I traded my spacious midtown loft for a 150-square-foot cabin with bunk beds, roommates and cockroaches. Fancy restaurants were replaced by a mess hall feeding 400+ Army style. A prince in New York, now I was living in close community with 350 others. I felt like a pauper.

But once off the ship, I realized how good I really had it. In new surroundings, I was utterly astonished at the poverty that came into focus through my camera lens. Often through tears, I documented life and human suffering I'd thought unimaginable. In West Africa, I was a prince again. A king, in fact.

A man with a bed and clean runningwater and food in my stomach. I fell in love with Liberia - a country with no public electricity, running water or sewage - Living in a leper colony and exploring remote villages, I put a face to the world's 1.2 billion living in poverty. Those living on less than $365 a year - money I used to spend on a bottle of Grey Goose vodka at a fancy club. Before tip.

Our medical staff would hold patient intake "screenings" and thousands would wait in line to be seen, many afflicted with deformities even Clive Barker hadn't thought of. Enormous, suffocating tumors - cleft lips, faces eaten by bacteria from water-borne diseases. I learned many of these medical conditions also existed here in the west, but were taken care of - never allowed to progress. The amount of blind people with no access to the 20 minute cataract surgery that could restore their sight - all part of this new world.

Over the next eight months, I met patients who taught me the meaning of courage. Slowly suffocating to death for years and yet pressing on, praying, hoping, surviving. It was an honor to photograph them. It was an honor to know them.

CHARITY:

For me, charity is practical. Sometimes easy, sometimes inconvenient, always necessary. It is the ability to use one's position of influence, relative wealth and power to affect lives for the better. charity is singular and achievable.

There's a biblical parable about a man beaten near death by robbers. Stripped naked, lying roadside - people pass him by, but one man stops. He picks him up and bandages his wounds. He puts him on his horse and walks alongside until they reach an inn. Checks him in and throws down his Amex. "Whatever he needs until he gets better."

Because he could.

The dictionary defines charity as simply the act of voluntarily giving to those in need. The word comes from the latin "caritas," or simply, love. In Colossians 3, the Bible instructs readers to "put on charity, which is the bond of perfectness."

Although i'm still not sure what that means, i love the idea. To wear charity.

Join us as we explore living differently.

PS:

Last night I´ve dreamt about some invisible but good looking guy who has bought me italian stringsandals for our marriage. Hey, I never intended to marry these days, but - I was wearing a georgeous cream white wedding dress, catwalking in the hall showing it off to him.

Whosh, I need to run away - for what ? reason - hiding the dress in the wardrobe of my fathers house - who suddenly died overnight nine months ago -, thinking: maybe I´ll wear a different dress, in colour and cut. So strange, but thinking- marrying the only one, the romantic soul you cant hide from, it is about uniting, right?
