A question to all members of the blog.

I was looking at a couple of new age books in a store when coincidentally another book fell of the shelf. It was a book a book about the year 2012. I just flipped through it and saw it was about a certain date 21-12-2012 which the Maya’s but also other cultures have predicted to be the end of the world or at least the end of a cosmic cycle because there is an exceptional alignment of planets. I did not think much about it until a week later I again came across that date again when reading about holey geometry. So I checked it on the I-net and there is a whole discussion about it.
Has anybody heard of this, what do you think about it?

sometimes people know that they know and they like it, sometimes people know that they dont know and they too like it. sometimes people dont know that they know and the person is oblivious and distracted with their surroundings. sometimes people just choose not to know and takes short cuts to thinking. sometimes thinking can make one suffer and suffering is no fun :)
sometimes people choose to suffer and sometimes they like it. sometimes people know that they dont know and happy with it. sometimes people make wrong decisions intentionally just for the heck of it. sometimes wrong decisions are the best option or the only option…

sometimes it happens so often.

Who supports you? I’ve been through some great times in my short 26 years on earth(ie: played pro soccer in the MLS, worked in the NBA for 2 years); but I’ve also been through some very tough times in my life (ie:drug problems,difficult break ups w/ girls, I’ve hit rock bottom twice in my short life). I started writing a book about my past expierences a few months ago, and when people find outthey think I’m crazy! The person who supports me is my best girlfriend Ms. Smith. She’s the one who gave me a copy of The Alchemist. She’s also the one who keeps me motivated everyday when the rest of the world laughs at me when I tell them I’m writing a book

Dear Alexamdra, this time with technology I … cannot help you!! I was trying to do it myself but could not do it!!

From what I remember, from AUDITION, we should first upload it to myspace or youtube and then send it here…

It would be nice to see you talking…
LOVE,
Thelma.

Hey!

We had elections in Belgium this weekend. This morning I read in the new-paper an intervieuw of one of the winners. He said: each victory brings me closer to a defeat. I love this sentence! It is the nature of life hereself that it comes with ups and downs and it is better to except it in advance and recognise it with comprehension when you are in the lesser period so you can pass this period easier!

Wow, how did you find this author? Where I live, prisons is business, I believe there are 40 000 inmates in Arizona, and of course many, many more in California. I sometimes wonder how the life in these cities of people being locked up really is. A man who has been in prison for a year told me they all learn sign language to communicate behind the prison guards back, and they send notes to each other through pipes in the wall. Neela, I think I would like to read this guy’s book, even though I avoid watching ‘prison movies’.

One Heart
by Carmelo

It’s always been a mystery
What I felt deep in my soul
It felt so strong, so free
And somehow made me whole

I never thought this heart
Could hold so much for anyone
Your love filled every part
That’s when we became one

Two bodies but one heart beat
Your love’s always fed my fire
It made me feel so complete
It filled every dream, every desire

It’s always been a mystery
What I felt deep in my soul
But I see this was meant to be
As together we make each other whole
