Neediness often pushes other people away. Love is not a fluctuating unstable emotion. Love is not greed, possession, owning, attachment, neediness, desire, infatuation, lust, craving, addiction, jealousy, anger, egotism, or control. That which is selfish can't be love because love is selfless.



Love is good intent.

Love is service.

Love is selfless.

Love is devotion.

Love is trust.

Love is respect.

Love is kindness.

Love is compassion.

The body is a collective community of trillions of individually living cells that are all cooperating together to make a larger whole. The brain's cellular neural network, and its thoughts and thinking, are just another part of that overall cellular functioning.



The heart pumps blood all by itself without you doing it, the lungs breath air all by themselves without you doing it, and the brain associates self-invented concepts with other self-invented concepts all by itself. The vast… Continue

Celery is my friend

Healthy and low in calories

I could eat it to no end

Provides loads of cellular energy



Some like it with cheez whiz

Some with processed PB

Not so healthy this is

And so it's not for me



Perhaps if it were organic cheese

And without plastic trans fats

It would do more to please

Thanks, but I'll take it without formats



Some don't care about health

Controlled by their senses they… Continue

The "law of attraction" as taught in the movie "The Secret" states that our thoughts and emotions create our "outside" life circumstances, situations, and happenstances. The entire concept of the law of attraction, or "karma" as I prefer to call it, is flat out rejected by many people. Would you like to know why some people accept it as truth and why some people don't?



The average person has a non-stop infinite stream of thoughts, emotions,… Continue

How your mind works determines how you live your life. It determines whether you are at conflict with the world, or at peace with it. It determines what and how you eat, how you react to all situations, what you believe you are capable of, and what your limitations are. It determines what you can and cannot do without, what you do and don't do, what you are attracted to, and what you are afraid of. It determines what you consider to be important and unimportant, what you do with your life, and… Continue

Unless you are in this very moment, and every other fleeting moment, at least striving to be, loving, compassionate, peaceful, happy, content, joyful, accepting, forgiving, respectful, conscientious, kind, calm, serene, tolerant, patient, benign, neutral, unattached, responsible, honest, sincere, truthful, trustworthy, generous, grateful, modest, humble, egoless, selfless, courageous, optimistic, hopeful, and positive, you aren't solving any of your problems, nor the problems of the rest of the… Continue

Do you ever experience sudden epiphanies, brilliant ideas, flashes of insight, or moments of profound genius? If not, there's only one reason - you're too caught up in your current thought processes, ideas, views, opinions, beliefs, perceptions, concepts, associations, thinkingness, and emotions.



Let them go. You may not be aware of it, but those thoughts are a major hindrance to you. Nobody can know the truth, or the next level of truth, as long as they think they already know the… Continue

Have problems in your life?



Radiate acceptance, forgiveness, kindness, respect, compassion, happiness, joy, peace, and love to yourself, or to the whole of humanity. Accept life joyfully for what it is, no matter what it is, and just be love, because that is the one and only solution to your problems. You see, your problems only exist because there is an absence of acceptance and love. When you are love, you are utterly whole and complete as you are, and nothing else matters. With… Continue

Boredom is the neediness for something "exciting" to happen. It's the craving for drama. It's the attachment/addiction to experiencing physical sensations. It's the desire to satisfy the physical senses. It's the wantingness to satisfy animal urges, rather than spiritual peace. It's the choosing of a temporary instant gratification, over long term well-being. Boredom is the choosing of pleasure over peace, because peace is perceived as being "boring". It's the urge to DO something in hopes of… Continue
