Treating yourself with kindness and care should always come first. Once you can do this without reservation that ability will automatically transfer from within to those around you. ~ Creator

Dear Ones, your soul will always seek freedom and expansion, as that is the way of the universe. Anything other than that will ultimately lead you to experience discomfort.

How do you keep yourself constrained and contained? Are you still operating from fear? Separation? Resistance? Control? We find it interesting that people refer to sameness as their comfort zone, because from our viewpoint it ends up not being very comfortable at all!

Understand your natural state is to flow and to grow. It is through those means that you will stay engaged in life, and find ever new and wonderful ways to discover and define yourselves. That is the glory of being in the body, on the planet, and we urge you to embrace the myriad of opportunities you have, right now, to further get to know yourselves in the realm of experience you call earth. ~Archangel Gabriel

God said:

Has it not been a gift for you to see a blue sky as well a night blue sky sparkling with stars and hope? How about leaves on trees changing colors and appearing and later disappearing? And what about babies so innocent and powerful and so aware of their needs and knowing that their needs will be filled!

You live in a great miracle of life that is not to be overlooked.

There are puppies and kittens, and elephants and all kinds of animals who naturally know just how to take care of their babies. Is this not a gift given? How remarkable and full life is! Yes, when there is plenty of milk, why would anyone cry over spilled milk?

There is nothing eminently wrong with crying. It’s also part of life, yet is it necessary to cry over so much as you may and perhaps extend crying's expiration date in testament to overwhelming heartache?

Find that which gives you pleasure in life and thus gives you delight from inside yourself. Come to life with the idea of being well-pleased. Make it as easy to be pleased as it is to be displeased. Focus on what gives you happiness. Is it so hard to count your blessings? Or are you better at counting other people's blessings and lack of your own? Dear Ones, sometimes you are cranky with life.

There is an entire day during a festival in Nepal dedicated solely to thanking dogs for their loyalty and friendship. The time itself is called “Diwali” celebrated by Hindus, and is a ‘festival of lights’ celebrated by millions every year in the fall, in india, nepal and elsewhere.

Specific to Nepal, there is a day during this celebration dedicated to all the Dogs, called Kukur Tihar, specifically to thank our 4-legged companions for always being our loyal friends.

Tihar is a five day Hindu festival, but the second day is reserved for our loyal companions.

It is called Kukur Tihar or Kukur Puja (worship of the dogs).

A generation in search of answers

There has long been a bug in the minds of the new generation — something doesn’t add up about the modern life path. We’ve heard it all before: spend some time in school, get a career helping some corporation produce and market some product or service, buy a house, start a family, die.

But this is the age of globalization, of the Internet — we grew up knowing that wasn’t all there was, yet still seem to be told repeatedly that it is. So some of us tried to go that route, some of us succeeded, and some of us failed miserably.

Whatever path we took, a lot of us found a large world outside of ourselves, and it is a world in crisis. The disconnect of government and economy from the Earth has broken the cycle of life and sustainability, the oceans are warming, the forests are in decline, and many species are going extinct before our eyes.

Many of us were looking for answers, but didn’t know where to turn to get started actually helping solve those problems.

You are a generator. Your thoughts are the power behind the generator. You can fuel it with fear or you can fuel it with love. What do you choose to create with it? ~ Creator

Mr Michael Buck, a 59-year-old retired teacher of art from Oxfordshire, England decided to build an adorable cob house out in his garden for $250 (£150).

This home almost looks like a hobbit home or a country cottage straight out of Middle Earth. The story behind the project is almost just as magical.

Making sure to use only reclaimed or natural materials and with no gas, water or electrical mains Buck has been able to keep things simple while saving a lot of money.
