			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><br /><p>I was watching a John Edwards episode. in one part it showed him reading for a family who lost a 4 year old child due to some form of cancer. It was like only a year or so ago, when that episode was filmed. John was impressed that the family has managed to get through it so well. So he asked what advise can she give to others going through it.</p>
<p>She said, &#8220;Always blessings, never losses&#8221;. It means that no matter how short the time you have with someone, its always a blessing for the time that exists. Its never a loss when it ends.</p>
<p>That was truly inspirational.  Its like the glass half full, or half empty. Its your choice. if you look at the time you had in a positive manner, that person will always remain positive in your heart and much more you can go on with your life without anger and suspicion or most importantly without hate.</p>
<p>Go tell the people that you know that they are a blessing. Not a blessing for you to meet them. But rather they themselves are a blessing that touches you and many others.</p>

Think about it, what is a curse? A curse  is anything that limits what you are or forces you to behave in a certain way. A fiction witch says, &#8220;You are a frog&#8221;, and you go around limited to croaking, hopping and eating flies.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><br /><p>What?!?!? Why would anybody curse themselves?</p>
<p>Think about it, what is a curse? A curse  is anything that limits what you are or forces you to behave in a certain way. A fiction witch says, &#8220;You are a frog&#8221;, and you go around limited to croaking, hopping and eating flies.</p>
<p>Then what is that got to do with cursing yourself. Think about it again, when do you feel, &#8220;That is myself&#8221;. &#8220;That is me&#8221; &#8220;That behavior is what I believe in&#8221;. What is that? That is when you are familiar with something, when you are familiar with something, you are comfortable with it, when you are comfortable with it, you associate it with your inner core.  But is it really?</p>
<p>&#8220;I can&#8217;t be a sales person&#8221;, &#8220;I can&#8217;t learn computers&#8221;, &#8220;I can&#8217;t learn to cook&#8221;, &#8220;I love to exercise&#8221;, &#8220;I love to rollablade, skydive&#8221; whatever stuff.</p>
<p>Why do you like something or dislike something? Its because you&#8217;ve done it and it brough some pleasure to you. If the pleasure happens a few times, suddenly you are comfortable with it and thats what you love. Conversely if you don&#8217;t have a positive experience, like getting rejected, or no sales when you are doing sales, that what happens. You go I hate being a salesman.</p>
<p>Think again, what are you doing, you are looking at past history to determine what you like or dislike. YOU LIMIT YOURSELF but ONLY LOOK AT THE PAST!</p>
<p>Who are the sucessful people, they are people who do not look at their past, everything is new, everything is like being in a kindergarten, its new and with no expectation of anything.</p>
<p>Sometimes you don&#8217;t even think you limit yourself. If you look at a girl and say &#8220;She&#8217;ll never like an engineer. (assuming you&#8217;re an engineer), you didn&#8217;t curse her. You cursed yourself, you set a limit on what you expect, hence you never look for the signs that she might actually like you. You only behave and look for rejection.</p>
<p>Curse yourself?!? Yes you do, and practically everyday you do. A lot of recent spiritual teachers  are trying to teach people, stop placing limits on yourself, there are no limits only  those you create.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><br /><p>I&#8217;ve a friend in the US. She has a boyfriend, however, for some reason, the boyfriend has this female stalker, who is more the willing to spend money on PI to discover personal information about the couple. Even more strange the stalker actually walks a spiritual path of a reiki and possibly other forms of practice.</p>
<p>After all kinds of efforts, this woman continues to disturb them. My friend has tried all kinds of things, including psychic help. She&#8217;s been telling me of this problem for several months now.</p>
<p>So I decided to try a shield spell for her. I informed her via email but my friend didn&#8217;t read about for like 10 days after the event.  When I caught up with her later, on a messenger, she finally read my email and she was amazed. Apparently they were no longer angered by this woman calling frequently, her relationship between her and bf has improved. All in all life has improved a lot. Hearing that I was pleased.</p>
<p>So here&#8217;s the spell I did (in summary).</p>
<p>1) I used a quartz crystal for a focus and to create a mental hexagon crystal shape around the couple.</p>
<p>2) Call on God, archangels, angels, guides. Each entity was called upon 3 times.</p>
<p>3) Finally ask to remove all negative energy and create a shield around the couple that allows all energy to pass out of it and block any negative and allow only good or neutral energy to pass in.</p>
<p>4) Most importantly that this shield is not traceable to me.</p>
<p>Anyway after this success, she asked since I&#8217;m good at this, can I cast a spell to increase boob size <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />  hahaha nearly fell out my chair when she said this.  So I said okay I can always try but told her that I&#8217;ll need some ahh &#8220;ahem&#8221; pictures for proof if it works <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Heh she told me that she has just take some.. so I guess I have to figure out what to do to cast that spell. Would be an interesting money making side line if it works! hahaha</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><br /><p><b>Your view on yourself:</b></p>
<p><span>You are down-to-earth and people like you because you are so straightforward. You are an efficient problem solver because you will listen to both sides of an argument before making a decision that usually appeals to both parties.</span><b></b></p>
<p><b>The type of girlfriend/boyfriend you are looking for:</b></p>
<p><span>You like serious, smart and determined people. You don&#8217;t judge a book by its cover, so good-looking people aren&#8217;t necessarily your style. This makes you an attractive person in many people&#8217;s eyes.</span><b></b></p>
<p><b>Your readiness to commit to a relationship:</b></p>
<p><span>You are ready to commit as soon as you meet the right person. And you believe you will pretty much know as soon as you might that person.</span><b></b></p>
<p><b>The seriousness of your love:</b></p>
<p><span>You are very serious about relationships and aren&#8217;t interested in wasting time with people you don&#8217;t really like. If you meet the right person, you will fall deeply and beautifully in love.</span></p>
<p><span></span><b>Your views on education</b></p>
<p><span>Education is less important than the real world out there, away from the classroom. Deep inside you want to start working, earning money and living on your own.</span><b></b></p>
<p><b>The right job for you:</b></p>
<p><span>You have plenty of dream jobs but have little chance of doing any of them if you don&#8217;t focus on something in particular. You need to choose something and go for it to be happy and achieve success.</span></p>
<p><span></span><b>How do you view success:</b></p>
<p><span>You are confident that you will be successful in your chosen career and nothing will stop you from trying.</span></p>
<p><span></span><b>What are you most afraid of:</b></p>
<p><span>You are afraid of having no one to rely on in times of trouble. You don&#8217;t ever want to be unable to take care of yourself. Independence is important to you.</span></p>
<p><span></span><b>Who is your true self:</b></p>
<p><span>You are mature, reasonable, honest and give good advice. People ask for your comments on all sorts of different issues. Sometimes you might find yourself in a dilemma when trapped with a problem, which your heart rather than your head needs to solve.</span></p>
<p>Quite true almost everything. Except the education part. Education to me is a world view changer. The more you learn, the more options the way you view the world.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><br /><p>What makes a spell or a wish to use magic?</p>
<p>Its basically comprises of 3 parts, intent, focus and energy.</p>
<p>Intent part is basically what you want to achieve. The specific outcome or general outcome as specified. Focus is generally what you do to concentrate on the intent, it usually involves saying things over and over again, or chanting, or some form of ritual. Finally energy, most of the time, it comes from the person him/herself. The longer the ritual/focus the more energy is poured into the spell or wish.</p>
<p>Notice something familiar, prayer is precisely that as well, there is an intent, there is a focus, and the energy is provided by you.  Yes, Christians all over will be up in arms reading this, but it really is the situation. If you have the gift of spiritual sight you would be able to see, the energy imparted from a person in a blessing, a prayer. It looks like a small cloud of energy being whatever colour the intent is closest to moving from a person to the intended target.</p>
<p>Whether you are using voodoo, prayer, spells are require intent and focus. The more elaborate the  ritua/focus the stronger the energy. Basically, the longer you focus on the same intent the more energy is created. Thats why most prayers fail. The intent is there, the focus is there, but the intent keeps changing by the minute. One minute, you want this effect, one minute you want a variation of that effect. That&#8217;s why most prayers aren&#8217;t answered. Best way to get a prayer answered? Write it down, draw it out in pictures. The longer you put your mind to precisely the same thought the stronger the energy is created for it. The more people involved in it, having the same thought and feelings the stronger the energy to accomplish the effect. Thats why charismatic services usually have things happening, the singing, the chanting, the heavy music all focus the mind to create one or more effect, be it healing, or influencing people to believe gets greater.</p>
<p>Thats&#8217; why Islam could be potentially more powerful then any other religion. All believers focus on Mecca, all the mental energy saying the same prayers through the world 5 times a day are accumulated in a single black square stone.  How can any other religion combine their prayers as effectively as they do? Christianity is so divided into so may groups each believing that theirs is the best. There is no unity sadly.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><br /><p>Well a Merry Christmas to one and all.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m so glad its over! <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />   Its always a work Christmas for me. Starts of with spring cleaning, then putting up The Tree, then moving furniture out of the way, put out chairs all waiting for the families to start popping by. For the last 3 years, we have been catering dinner. It used to be we actually cooked all of the food for about 30-40 people. No mean feat, especially while you&#8217;re cooking other friends will pop in and out throughout the day you&#8217;re cooking all the while expecting you to feed them while your cooking for the night. AND  they will opportune to drop in between 12-2pm.  Sometimes up to 4pm.</p>
<p>Don&#8217;t they realise we&#8217;re already working like mad dogs during the day? Sigh, so much for thinking of others over thinking of their tummies. Sigh! Well, now we cater,  a lot less work, we even gave up doing the turkey! Woot! 6 hours of oven watching over! <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>What worst, is the 3 hours of washing and clearing after the party. Clean up usually takes up to 3-4am. Now with catering .. about midnight.</p>
<p>Now that my sister&#8217;s friends know that I can cook, they want me to cook for them for lunch.. No bloody way!!</p>
<p>Amazing, its no rest for the &#8220;wicked&#8221; coming boxing day. 10am.. first visitors arrive.. sigh..<br />
Thank goodness only a handful, after that once again, moving furniture.</p>
<p>Its over! <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />  And so much left overs.. turkey, sausages, chicken curry, noodles, cake, prawns, leg of ham! <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />   Well, only good for my expanding waist line hahaha!</p>
<p>Interesting enough my neighbour came down for dinner. After talking for a while, a little high from the kirsch in the truffle (yum, sugie cake with kirsch poured over covered with rich sweetened cream and lots of fruits like strawberries, mangoes, peaches.), found out that the wife is also a sensitive like me. Heh.. he complains that she can always know what he&#8217;s thinking and can sometimes put thoughts in his mind. Ha! Wonderful, another person to chat about these stuff. Quite funny couple.</p>
