Dalai Lama each day


Dear friends,
How cool is that that the Dalai Lama does facebook each day. I love getting his daily thoughts. It is wonderful having so much wisdom from such a blessed man.

Wisdom


Dear friends,
HUGE TIME OF TRANSFORMATION GOING ON. I have been through a strong down time and now in latest zippy. My friend John is down from Queensland and we haven't seen each other for 13 years. We are having a tremendous time together. He would be my closest friend. We are enhancing our friendship so much. Not sure if he is staying here for a while or going back to Queensland soon. It is helping me to focus on the moment and not to get too ahead of myself.
I got a new phone and having fun getting to know how to use it. Successfully sent a couple of text messages and one urgent one to a lady running the Bahai class.
One of my best friends is coming to stay the night and that is a huge step forward for me and what I can deal with.
I also went to the gallery with a close friend and we did really well together. so much so that I went with John yesterday.
Now how will I deal with my next down time. I need to do blogging about it as part of the new idea of discipline. in my next down time I have to keep going with prayers, yoga, gardening, meals, and the daily things i do. I can cut back on internet time but need to do other things. I need to do a little art each day whether I feel like it or not. apparently a lot of my down times is due to lack of stimulation and it is true that I do way less in quiet time. I have tried this before and I just don't bother. this time I have to bother. I will make a memo to be back next week.

Dark times


Dear friends,
This is a collage I did to express my latest quiet time which was quite dark. I got into thinking I wished that I was dead which really disturbs me. I also told another friend I didn't know how I would get through the next 30 years being the way I am. Now I am in my next zippy I am back into life be in it.
I had a marvellous revelation that a lot of my depression and negative thinking it my inner child being really fearful so I have started a journal especially for my inner child to dialogue with my parent and adult. It is going really well and am pleased with my progress.
Yesterday I went and did some NLP Neuro Linguistic programming and I thought it would be all mumbo jumbo but i am quite impressed with how went and made some major revelations and healing of my divided self. I am going again to deal with other fears and concerns.
Will post when I am able which is usually when i am in my zippy phase. I wonder if I ever post when I am quiet.
