Nephthys  There's a woman who sits next to me who has cancer. She is bald and wears a little cloth cap on her head every day. Some days she's absent. She has chemo tomorrow. Right now she has her head in her hands and her eyes closed because she says she's tired all the time. I really feel for her  You don't know what you've got till it's gone.. that's a song from Peter Cetera lol. But SO true.
I found that I was living in the past way too much. Talking about what could have been if I did this or that differently. But like you said, life is about learning. I believe that every time we reincarnate, we come back to continue learning until we get it right. I can look back on my life and see I've got a lot more to learn lol. So what happens when those souls have finally got it right? Do they become spirit guides to those of us still learning? Yeah, maybe I think too much lol. LTT (((HUG))) IP: Logged |

No, you don't think too much at all.......I totally, fully, and completely believe in reincarnation..... quote: I believe that every time we reincarnate, we come back to continue learning until we get it right.
EXACTLY!!!!!!  quote: So what happens when those souls have finally got it right? Do they become spirit guides to those of us still learning
I believe that the Soul is also on an evolutionary path (as well as the physical world evolves).......I believe that after we have mastered the level of the earth plane we ascend to higher realms/levels of learning........and there is no end. The Universe is a perfect example of infinity......we are a part of it, and our Souls have infinte life....... So I believe that YES, if your Soul does choose to guide others here, then of course you can choose to do that. It makes sense, we are ALL ONE, every Spirit and Soul in the Universe is a part of everything and everyone, and there are no boundaries. It's like school, you graduate to higher levels. You can come back to school and be a tutor, or teacher's aide. So you can come back and help teach, "guide", if you so wish, by being a Spirit guide. Or you can move on to another "school"/UNI-versity ~ I hope that makes sense, it is what I believe

OHMYGOSH! I didn't even see this when I just replied!!! quote: There's a woman who sits next to me who has cancer. She is bald and wears a little cloth cap on her head every day. Some days she's absent. She has chemo tomorrow. Right now she has her head in her hands and her eyes closed because she says she's tired all the time. I really feel for her
Peace to her!!!!I am at work, and I just received a message for all of YOU: I brought one of my books to work to read in my down time: Jan Spiller's Astrology for the Soul.....haven't read it in YEARS......and the book mark sitting in it, GUESS WHAT? It is a small white business card, with purple writing on the front: "Expect a Miracle".........just like Linda's Nahtan gave to her!!!! So that's your message for the day everyone EXPECT A MIRACLE IP: Logged |

You know what I learned when my son died. EVEN if someone has a problem which looks small to others--that problem can go as far as to kill THAT person. I respect people's reality of pain now in a different way. Ami

I have only gotten this way since my son died. Often ,people will say to me,"You have everything --a nice house etc. I felt guilty like "WHY aren't I happy?" The reason ,which I know now,is that you have to have peace within yourself, love yourself, respect and honor yourself. If not--you are going down. Whatever someone's reality--it is real to them and must be respected and honored. Ami

Nephthys..I love what you wrote about reincarnation  I'm feeling kind of blue today, don't know what it is. Ami I am SO sorry you lost a son. This should never happen to anyone. Seriously, I'm tearing up thinking about it. Reminds me of a very good friend of mine. She had identical twin daughters. At 6 yrs old she lost one of them to brain cancer. I'll see if I can post a link of them. Beautiful girls. But this almost destroyed her. My friends mom..the grandmother tried to commit suicide and went thru a very hard breakdown. It was very hard talking to her on the phone because she would start bawling and have to hang up. I just can't imagine. My love to you Ami for going thru something no mother should have to ever face  starkiss - thank you

I think in order for you to change you have to have radical self acceptance of where you are. I have been trying to let people know me--the real me. Some people may not like me but the ones who do KNOW the real me. When your real you touches another persons real him/her--there is a healing magic. Ami IP: Logged |

So sorry to everyone for all of your losses, I can't imagine what you have gone through.......Ami Ann  Wink Here is another analogy of our lives on earth: (how I feel) When you sign up for classes at school, you can choose easy courses, or you can choose more difficult courses. The easy courses, you might get an "easy A" and you usually don't learn very much.......the harder courses, you really have to struggle through and spend extra energy to get through them. Once you do, WOW you sure learned a lot! We all signed up for the most difficult courses during this lifetime........ and we are just trying to get through them.....we may not always know or learn why we have had to go through such terribly difficult things, but we are always stronger from our experiences. It's as if we are taking "AP" courses (advanced placement).....perhaps we will graduate into a higher realm once we have finished? (don't know, just an idea)  IP: Logged |

I just received this song in an Ipod/tarot reading, over at AT. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G1f2M5G9KG8&playnext=1&videos=BlftJVejOhk Her reading was really appropriate, and it would be nice if the rest comes true.  *edit. I hear my parents, so I'm off to get my hugs now.

Teasel,Have you tried any natural remedies for depression? Getting adequate Vitamin D? I started making my own nut mix for snacks, I use organic raw sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, almonds and cashews.......I looked up the health benefits of pumpkin seeds just out of curiosity and was not only surprised to find how healthy they are for you but they are very positive for depression  Another thing is getting quality sleep - I take my calcium pills at night b/c they help with sleep, and I also take 5-HTP to help me sleep at night, which is also very good for improved mood. 5-HTP is totally natural and what your body makes anyways.........So getting adequate sleep is supposed to help people with depression. Eating healthy and going for walks where you get fresh air is also very good   IP: Logged |

I shared this on another thread. I got a book called "Cure by Crying" It is out of print so super expensive but it was worth it. The author cures emotional and physical problems by setting time aside each day(1/2 hour, I think) to cry. He watched sad movies, thought of sad memories etc. In time ,he healed all sorts of things like migraine headaches, depression etc. *I* have been doing this every night not cuz I am setting aside time cuz I AM sad lol. Every day, I wake up with a clearer and more sound mind. Ami IP: Logged |
