A SHAMAN

"A SHAMAN ... KNOWS THERE IS A SEA OF CONSCIOUNESS THAT IS UNIVERSAL EVEN THOUGH WE EACH PERCEIVE IT IT FROM OUR OWN SHOES, AN AWARENESS AND A WORLD THAT WE ALL SHARE, THAT CAN BE EXPERIENCED BY EVERY LIVING BEING, YET IS SELDOM SEEN BY ANY."

MAKING THINGS HAPPEN

MAKING THINGS HAPPEN


A good friend of mine has just e-mailed to tell that she´s going to leave the country to do a yatch-master course and start a new kind of life, taking boats to places and, most of all, earning her living in an adventurous way.
I feel happy for her. Why do so many people live a lifetime doing the same old thing, even if they don´t like it, just because they think they can´t change it? That´s something I´ll never understand.
Living is a miracle in itself. It´s something so great and so intense that we cannot imprison within our fears. It´s too beautiful a planet we live on. Why not enjoy it? Why not discover our own potential in sharing with the rest of the world? Let´s all sail, if not in a boat, but in our thoughts, in our words, in our attitude ...
Goodbye, Katie. Be happy. The world will never be too big for you, because your soul can reach the stars.

I could not agree with you more... just thought i'd drop by again, and read some of your posts... i think change is very hard for every living thing, Especially us humans... we think too much... sometimes it takes a great amount of courage to take that leap into the unknown, i know i am often daunted to do things differently in my own life, even though i know such things would be a vast improvement on my lifes quality...

Take care. Hope you have a pleasant August in Brasil
