Hello everyone :)
This is my first post in here so I will start with a poem. I first heard about Khalil Gibran in one of Wayne Dyer's books, and it was love at first sight, or first line... Khalil that is, allright Wayne's good also.
(to be honest this blog kind of makes me have second thoughts - is that sort of thing that you never know how it going to end.. ... anyway... here it goes :) )
Enjoy:
<strong><p>Time </p></strong>
<p>a poem by Kahlil Gibran</p>
<em>
And an astronomer said, "Master, what of Time?"
<br />
And he answered:<br /><br />
You would measure time the measureless and the immeasurable.<br />
You would adjust your conduct and even direct the course of your spirit according to hours and seasons.<br />
Of time you would make a stream upon whose bank you would sit and watch its flowing.<br /><br />
Yet the timeless in you is aware of life's timelessness,<br />
And knows that yesterday is but today's memory and tomorrow is today's dream.<br />
And that that which sings and contemplates in you is still dwelling within the bounds of that first moment which scattered the stars into space.
<br />
<br />
Who among you does not feel that his power to love is boundless? <br />
And yet who does not feel that very love, though boundless, encompassed within the center of his being, and moving not from love thought to love thought, nor from love deeds to other love deeds? <br />
And is not time even as love is, undivided and paceless?<br /><br />
But if in you thought you must measure time into seasons, let each season encircle all the other seasons,<br />
And let today embrace the past with remembrance and the future with longing.</em>

I posted the poem again - no html glitches - however it went into the default folder of Harmonic Wealth .. note to myself: do not take for granted things working the way you assume they do! pay attention!
I guess tonight is just not a poetry night.

Laura...
You seem to like to read......here is a book I recommend to my friends, and it's a beautiful read, especially for women:
Discovering The Body's Wisdom...by Mirka Knaster
You'd probably have the best luck with Amazon in getting it.
~ Enjoy & Be Well......Kirby

I have traveled the globe studying the thoughts, actions and habits of those who create true wealth in every area of life. You name it, if it affected success or showed any of the five kinds of wealth--financial, relational, mental, physical and spiritual--I studied it.
Here's your chance to ask me your most burning question, ranging from the physical to the spiritual and everything in between. Literally anything goes!
