Celebrate
Freedom NEW!
by Marlene Buffa
Recorded history focuses on
government and spans time by ticking the meter of war. From as early as
the Bronze Age, one of the first recorded conflicts arose in Greece,
popularly known as the Trojan War. As we study world history, we notice
that most wars arose from either greed or confinement. Man rebels when he
seeks to conquer more of what lies outside of himself, and also when what
abides within him seeks liberation. Similarly, our spiritual selves rebel
when we perceive limitation imposed on us by others, or deliberate harm
inflicted through violation of boundaries. Our nature, as inhabitants of
the earth and spiritual beings, treasures freedom from outside intruders
and also from our self-imposed limitations.
What is Freedom?
Ms. Jonell Linskey, an inspirational teacher at my beloved high school
(Mercy, Farmington Hills, MI) taught a class in the late 1970s entitled
"Future, Freedom and Death." Wielding her adept teaching skills
by allowing each student the joy of discovery, Ms. Linskey posed the
question, "What is Freedom?" Class discussion rose from a
hesitant, whispered brainstorm of reducing philosophical thought to a mere
sentence or even a few words, to the fevered pitch of excitement when
reviewing what freedom was not. At one point, the class seemed convinced
that to limit the definition of freedom to mere words was to defy the very
meaning of the concept. Our patient teacher waited for the discussion to
die down and in her quiet way acknowledged she heard our struggles and
offered, "Freedom is the ability to choose." More than 30 years
later, I remember how deftly she lead us to the simple definition and how
much that experience impacted my life. Thank you, Ms. Linskey, for helping
me to notice something I'll never-not-notice again!

Having
Money
by Sanaya Roman and Duane Packer
Money is neither good nor bad; it is energy. It is the way money is used
that determines whether or not it is a positive energy that will benefit
you and others. If you come from the highest level of integrity with your
money, if you make it in ways that benefit people, through shifting their
consciousness, or through serving and making a contribution, by giving
your best, honoring others, and putting attention and consciousness into
what you do, you are making a contribution to humanity and to yourself.
When you use money in ways that serve your higher purpose and bring you
and others joy, you are creating money of light. The more money is made
and spent with integrity and light, the more it becomes a force of light
for everyone.

Opening To Abundance: Opening Your Heart
by Dr. Trish Whynot
When you really let
yourself feel Love, you feel a presence in your heart. From there you have
a choice to brush it off or breathe it in. When you choose to breathe it
in, it just glows like an ember glows when you blow on it. It fills you
and takes you to heavenly heights.

Sense of Gratitude: One Woman's Prayer of Appreciation
by Marlene Buffa
Every morning, I take a walk for a half hour. I usually follow the same
route through my neighborhood and greet the same neighbors and dogs on
their daily ritual, as well. I use my walk as a time of reflection and
preparation for my day. I honor myself with time for prayer and gratitude so that my day begins with a focus and perspective which serves to buoy my spirit in the sea of rough water and tides of daily life. Rarely do I make frivolous requests of spirit, or even ask for guidance. Rather, I begin my day with gratitude by recounting all my blessings and inviting more good into my life.

senses—consciousness.

_______________________ Love it or Lose -- Passions and the

by Jerry Porras, Stewart Emery and Mark Thompson
Much is said today about the importance of loving what you do, but most people simply don't buy it. Sure, it would be nice to do what you love, but as a practical matter, most people don't feel they can afford such a luxury. For many, doing something that really matters to them would be a sentimental fantasy based on wishful thinking.

Dare To (Not)
Compare: One Secret To Aligning With Your Highest Potential
by Jeffrey Brownstein
I was talking with a friend today. We were having this nice, empowering
conversation, sharing ideas - and then we started analyzing another mutual
acquaintance (already sound familiar?). Nothing terrible, but my friend
astutely pointed out when our focus started slipping more toward the other
person's shortcomings, and suggested we shift the discussion back to our
own affairs. I, of course, being a (sometimes defensive!) Law of
Attraction coach tried to validate the merits of our digression, saying
there was no malice in our words - that we were just using the other
person's behavior as a vehicle for learning. Thankfully, my friend wasn't
completely buying in.

Glorious Living! Guidelines For
Mastering The Art Of Contentment
by Steve Morris
"Poor is not the person who has too little, but the person who craves
more." ~ Lucious Annaeus Seneca
We live in a consumer driven society. Studies show consumerism is up and
it is not likely it will slow. Bigger, better, faster. We aim to buy the
latest model plasma TV, the fastest designer car, the biggest house,
latest phone, computer or MP3 player and almost instantly the model we
have strived so hard to possess gets superceded and the process repeats
itself.
When one relies on material possessions to feel a sense of satisfaction it
is inevitably short lived. There will always be someone or something else
that is better or more desirable than what you have, leading to feelings
of dissatisfaction.

“Financial” Matters
by Dr. Trish Whynot
Money issues are encountered by many on their journey toward self-discovery. Be it financial lack or difficulty enjoying the money you have, money struggles are most often not the “real” issue. Money is an energy and a financial issue is a messenger … it is an indicator … it is a symptom. Financial lack can indicate a depleted state—an imbalance with your giving and receiving. It manifests as more money going out than is coming in. Financial lack can also be indicating issues with value, self-worth or image. Financial struggles can be presenting a message that you have placed too much weight on money. If you place your safety and security on how much money you have in the bank, you have given it too much weight and spending money could be frightening, even if you have an abundance of it. These are but a few messages that your financial matters could be attempting to bring you.

The 5
Hindrances Of The Mind: Are They Blocking Your Self-Esteem?
by Deborah Shipley
The issue of self-esteem is perhaps one of the greatest determinates in
creating a life of freedom and abundance, or feeling inhibited and “just
getting by“. Self-esteem is defined as “a feeling of pride in
oneself“. It is how you feel in relation to yourself rather than how
others see you. It’s between you and, well… you. Therefore, it’s not
necessary to be so concerned about what others think to determine your
level of self -esteem, as the definition does not include any
“others“, just you. So where can you help yourself to better
understand you? There are so many aspects of you but one that is of great
importance is that of your mind.

The Art Of Receiving
by Sharon Warren
Receiving: verb (r-sving)
To admit; to take in; to hold; to contain; to have capacity for; to be
able to take in. To allow or to accept.
Recently, four of us were celebrating the January birthdays of two
girlfriends at a Scottsdale restaurant. We had a wonderful lunch, followed
by going to see Calendar Girls. I arrived at the theater first and
purchased my ticket. I had no idea that Birthday Girl #1 wanted to gift
each of us movie tickets. Friend #3 was having “receiving” issues,
sputtering in protest, “It’s your birthday and you shouldn’t be
buying tickets for us!” I responded, “It is her joy to give and
you are taking away her happiness if you don’t receive this.”
She got it instantly—and accepted the gift graciously.

Gratefulness and Prosperity
by Dr. Darryl Pokea
We are living in times of radical paradigm shifts where the bias and
meaning of our words, themselves, are being questioned, sometimes denied,
and frequently ignored in our busy life style. Misconceptions about
prosperity are frequent and too often associated with wealth. Gratitude is
not commonly practiced, but its absence frequently complained about. For
me, gratitude and prosperity may be viewed as interconnected states of
being. When our minds are resonating with gratitude the gate is fully
opened to the flow of prosperity.

What is the natural flow of abundance in

how you rate on "the ladder of success." Or you might count the
number of friends you have, the sense of contentment you feel after a hard
days work or the amount of time you spend with your kids. Obviously
the idea of "abundance" can mean different things to different
people, yet, initially we think of it in terms of money.

what I see. All of my hard work and the tangible rewards it's brought me
have not given me the joy and peace of mind I thought they would. Sure, on
the outside, I appear successful. But I keep wondering, "Is
this all there is?'"

Doing The Work That You Love
by Vered (Tanmayo) Neta
As a child, I remember my father, sitting
in his room, surrounded by his books, writing. His work was his love. Later in his life, when most people have retired,
he was up early in the morning, busy with his work. It gave him a
meaning to life and kept him young.

Between The

Principles To
Live By
by Orel Hershiser and Robert Wolgemuth
Cars and trucks zoomed past me as I stood
on the shoulder of the I–75 entrance ramp, less than a mile from the
entrance to BG (Bowling Green State University). The wind whipped through
my hair and tugged at my jacket. I squinted from the dust that kicked up
in my face. Standing there with my thumb in the air, hoping for a ride, I
had never felt this hopeless. Never.

Protecting Your #1
Asset: Creating Fortunes From Your Ideas
by Michael A. Lechter
Ackman developed a new video game
conceptually different from all previous video games. In addition, this
game's program employed radically new data manipulation techniques, which
permitted the generation of amazingly lifelike images on conventional
displays. Ackman began marketing the game software in both ROM
"cartridge" and disk form. Each article sold was dutifully
marked with a copyright notice.

____________________ What Goes Around Comes Around
by Nancy R. Fenn
One day I was standing out in my yard watering the hedges. I was very
worried about money that day. I felt like I didn't know where my next
dollar was coming from.
My yard is on a busy through street in the town where I live. All of a
sudden a red truck pulled into the driveway and a handsome young man got
out of the car and walked toward me.

Do What You Are: Discover the
Perfect Career for You Through the Secrets of Personality Type
by Paul D. Tieger and Barbara Barron-Tieger It's
important to find the right job. Despite the universal fantasies of
winning the lottery, buying expensive cars and homes, and doing
fascinating work with interesting people in exotic places, the sober
reality is that most of us have to work, hard, for a long time. If you
spend forty to fifty years—not an unlikely scenario—working at jobs
you'd rather not be doing, you are in truth throwing away a large part of
your life. This is unnecessary and sad, especially since a career you can
love is within your reach.

7
Lies That Prevent Powerful Results
by Kathy Gates Everyone
has something in their life that they would like to change. Nobody's life
circumstances and environment are perfect. But what do you tend to tell
yourself about these circumstances? Often it's easy to fix blame on
others. Consider, however, that your feelings are not caused by your
cranky boss, or the construction on the street, or your inconsiderate
friend; but rather your feelings are caused by what you tell yourself about your circumstances.

Rich Kid, Smart Kid: Giving Your Children a Financial Headstart
by Robert T. Kiyosaki and Sharon L. Lechter C.P.A.
Both my dads were great teachers. Both men
were smart men. But they were not smart in the same subjects, and they did
not teach the same things. Yet as different as they were, both dads
believed the same things about all kids. Both dads believed that all kids
are born smart and all kids are born rich. Both believed a child learns to
be poor and learns to believe that he or she is less smart than other
kids. Both dads were great teachers because they believed in bringing out
the genius that each child is born with. In other words, they did not
believe in putting knowledge in, they believed in bringing the child's
genius out.

Kim, my best friend, Larry, and I began our journey from broke, to rich,

you who may be doubtful or in need of some self-confidence to begin the
journey to retiring young. When Kim and I started, we were nearly out of
money, low on confidence, and filled with doubt. We all have doubts. The
difference is what we do with those doubts.

Nation: How America's New Independent Workers Are Transforming the Way We
Live
by Daniel H. Pink
In the second half of the
twentieth century, the key to understanding America's social and economic
life was the Organization Man. In the first half of the twenty-first
century, the new emblematic figure is the free agent—the independent
worker who operates on his or her own terms, untethered to a large

Open Your Arms To Receiving….
by Patricia Crane
Did you know that there is enough money on this planet for everyone (yes,
everyone) to have a million dollars? So why is it that Bill Gates has
billions, others have a million, and others have only a small amount? The
answer is simple: consciousness. Each of us has played out the beliefs
from childhood about deservability and money to create whatever we have in
our lives right at this moment.

Wattles talks about the Law of Perpetual Transmutation. Simply put, energy
from the formless realm is constantly flowing into the material world and
taking form. This energy is limitless and inexhaustible. As old forms are
exhausted, they give way for new forms to emerge from the invisible hidden
energy of the universe.

A Plentiful Harvest: Creating Balance and Harmony
Through the Seven Living Virtues

As a child, I once listened to a minister tell a story about how he had
been called by God to preach. He cried as he told us about being healed of
his addictions and "carnal" living and compelled to worship God
and serve the community. Wow, I thought, to be handpicked by God to do
something special must be awesome.
