There’s a classic Buddhist story about two monks who come upon a woman at the edge of a river. One of the monks carries her across and they continue on their way. Several miles on, the other monk turns to the first and says, “How could you do that? We have made vows never to touch a woman!” The first looks serenely at him. “Are you still carrying her? I set her down at the edge of the river.”

It is a sad day for sure... Chris Griffy stated in the article for Axs "It's hard to think of any list of AC/DC songs without their signature hit “Back in Black.” But the song also highlights just how much Malcolm Young was instrumental in AC/DC becoming the band that is recognized the world over. The opening riff for “Back in Black” is considered one of the most instantly recognizable in all of rock, and that riff was all Malcolm Young. Young had written the riff years before Back in Black was recorded, dating back to their days with vocalist Bon Scott, and used it as a warmup riff before gigs."

The voice is so powerful that we forget just how influential it can be. However, we can also use our voices to volunteer, to speak up and raise our voices through our community. Sometimes that work can give a voise to the voiceless.

Benefits of Arguing. Conflict and arguing are often seen as negative and something to be avoided. Many people see conflict as reflective of a “crack” in a relationship or a sign that a relationship is in trouble. Yet research suggests that the process of conflict and arguing facilitates talk and awareness of another’s perspective. Therefore, it is important to keep in mind that conflict and arguing can be very beneficial to the health of friendships and romantic relationships. In particular, facing the need to argue with a close other can be energizing and motivating—the topics that bring about arguments remind us of what is important to us, form our core values to our goals for a given day. Arguments also give us the opportunity to think about and voice how we feel about our relationships and “who we are” as friends or dating partners.

It's so fascinating to read about these discoveries. The most recent discovery of Göbekli Tepe, which is estimated as being in existence between 11,300 and 11,500, definitely B.C.E. These sites have definitely caused some head scratchin' being that we were taught that civilization began about 5,000 to 5,500 with ancient Sumeria.

The Art of Peace begins with you. Work on yourself and your appointed task in the Art of Peace. Everyone has a spirit that that can be refined, a body that can be trained in some manner, a suitable path to follow. You are here for no other purpose than to realize your inner divinity and manifest your innate enlightenment. Foster peace in your own life and then apply the Art of Peace to all that you encounter. One does not need buildings, money, power, or status to practice the Art of Peace. Heaven is right where you are standing, and that is the place to train. All things, material and spiritual, originate from one source and are related as if they were one family. The past, present, and future are all contained in the life force. The universe emerged and developed from one source, and we evolved through the optimal process of unification and harmonization.

Halloween is the perfect time of year to face what we fear. In fact, this celebration is a lot about embracing the scary things and even having fun with them.
Explore what it feels like to wear a costume of something that scares you, like a spider. Perhaps you can embrace your fears in more healthy ways, develop empathy for that being, and learn to have fun with what you fear.
What do we usually fear the most? The dark—because the dark is the symbol of the unknown. If we can’t see it, we can’t know it, and we believe it’s something to fear.

I came across this video and thought I would share it. As you look at your personal style, do you incorporate some of these 21 elements? Do you agree with her list? I agree with most of the things she mentions and most fashion related blogs and videos will concur. I admittedly wear skinny jeans which were on her list, but I like how they fit. So that one may take me longer to lose if indeed it is faux pas.

We all know that life is busy, we can all agree with that. What we need to do is slow down or pause life. I have been practicing this for a couple of weeks now and have begun noticing more people and life around me. I've watched a beautiful woman literally stop a conversation and walk, just to smell flowers and gaze at their beauty. The above quote, I don't know if any words are truer than this. Please, I encourage myself and hope to inspire you to live your life fully. Communicate, especially make sure it is done fully, things are always left assumed and unsaid that create horrible mishaps later. Eat, be, do, and LOVE fully "It's not too late to fall in love with your life," you just have to start.

Some words are still relevant today. This quote was taken from The Christian Science Monitor (1 April 1974). Masculinity has been something I have been contemplating for a while now. I would like to explore what it means to be a man in the 21st century. Is masculinity inherently bad? As masculine energy continues to be suppressed by ourselves, our peers, societal norms, and the women we love. How does a man express who he is? How does he weave through the fabric of patriarchal norms and gender stereotypes? What does the future of masculinity look like?

Today I listened to one of my favorite Podcasts, Radiolab Podcast. If you have not heard, I would recommend the show. Today I learned something that I never knew before. I assumed just like anyone else that the President had some form of checks and balances in place before nuclear options are chosen. He may seek counsel, but doesn't necessarily have to accept their options. Another thing I thought was interesting, was that during the Cold War, had Russia launched Nuclear weapons, the President would have SIX MINUTES to react before reaching targeted destinations.

One of the things I have been working on that I think will benefit a lot of people is something that lights up our eyes whenever we think about it. On the other hand, we may hate the sound of the word, or it makes us feel completely alone because we don't have it. Money is the word of the day. The further down this path I travel, many of my viewpoints have changed for the better. For example, I do not see money as either “good” or “bad,” but rather it is neutral or just something that is a part of this life. For money to be either "good" or "bad," I have to place that perception on it, I am the one who places a value on it. Through some reading I have come to realize that money, truly is; an exchange of energy. It is the exchange of one service for another. Please don't misinterpret that to mean I am completely Zen on money, but I do try to keep things in perspective. A lot of times I fail, and other times I do ok, but I really try to maintain the idea that money is energy. Money is Energy, Money is Energy.

When someone gets the idea to simplify their life, none of us are aware of the vast amount of effort it takes actually to "Simplify" your life. I was much like the majority, a certifiable packrat, clinging to my possessions like a safety blanket, trophies that could be visited to remind me that I was great at those things. I very much clung to the past achievements.
My first attempt at decluttering my life occurred ten or so years ago. The belongings that I carried with me were tremendously smaller. A year later I made another decision to move out of state. I needed to purge again the clutter that was a part of the unseen. I paid a monthly rent for the luxury of having a storage unit, that housed those trophy's and memories. Two truckloads later, all of that stuff was gone, and I was free. It has been a struggle throughout the years not to start collecting things again. At some point, I may have been militant in my attitude not to collect things.
