Politics, News & Issues > US Elections Archives Election 2008: Obama meets the Clinton machine in the primaries: 2 of 15
Having dreams and visions are extremely important - being able to see what is wrong with an establishment even more so. But that it is never enough. What the candidates are not clearly explaining is what are the things that are right at this stage, the things that they will built upon further.I suppose that is part of what is... More..
Religion & Spirituality > Setting Life Goals How to best make your life dreams come true: 8 of 42
I believe that dreams are so fundamental to being a human that we are indeed incapable of truly functioning if we don't have them. I believe every human has a broad destiny that our soul urges us to reach, and our dreams are the stars that show us the way towards that destiny.I am in the process of publishing a book (Chasing ...

Religion & Spirituality > Self-Healing Living abundantly in the present, dismissing the past: 11 of 32
The past ought to be exactly that the past. There is but one time that does ever exist and that is the present. Both the past and the future are constructs of our mind to which we escape when we do not want to be in the present.We selectively remember the past to suite the things that we want to believe. We use it to form a b... More..
Religion & Spirituality > Christian Doctrine & Issues God and temptation: 35 of 90

We are presented in this world with many opportunities and decisions to make - each one resulting in us taking a specific action. Those actions have inevitable consequences and... More..

Perhaps, before we consider where we will go to one day, we just need to ponder for a bit where it is that we came from in the first place. I have once read the very interesting theory that all of the creation happened for the very simple reason that God wanted to express him, her or itself and the way it was done was to isol... More..
Religion & Spirituality > Religious Speculations & Criticisms Does everything happen for a reason?: 20 of 27
To wonder if everything happens for a reason is to wonder if there is indeed a master plan for this earth and each of our lives. The only possible scenario where things just randomly happen to us, is one where there is no end plan.I don't believe that we are just some random happenings that are now faced to live in a world ru...

Jobs & Careers > Getting Ahead Will higher education or work experience get you ahead faster in your career?: 15 of 19
Obviously I'd much rather say you need a combination of both because although I am in the pro-higher education camp, I do not for one moment underestimate the immense importance of experience.When you just get out of university, you don't really now anything yet next to the guy that got experience while you were at university...

Sciences > Anthropology (Other) Flaws in the evolution theory: 24 of 28
By far the largest problem with evolution theory is that everyone keeps on forgetting that it is in fact nothing more and nothing less that just a theory there are no facts supporting it. It is but one persons idea of what might have happened.Yes, small scale evolution does exist as organisms adapts to their surroundings thro... More..
Religion & Spirituality > Spiritual Insights Having spiritual dreams: 25 of 27
During our waking lives there are so many things that keep our minds busy that it would be quite conceivable that perhaps the only time that we would ever be able to forget about mundane troubles and listen to heavenly voices would be while we are a sleep.Why is it that we need sleep and why for such a big part of our lives? ...
