NEW YEAR 2007

Well here we are yet another year to say farewell to it seems quite unbelievable it is that frenetic time of the year again it is truly incredible indeed it is This year we are going to have a quiet time at home we thought no chance we will have to do the rounds of hellos and wishing all a happy new 2007 even if jsut fleetingly well that is how it is still it is always fun especially the unexpected aspects of such an evening nothing is really planned. Last week the same was to be our fate and fantastic it was too we visited the Barga living Presepio it was fantastic we neither of us had ever seen such an event littledid we know that at the next opportunity we were to be taking part in the very same event at a most wonderful natural place in Itlay called Equiterme a most wonderful natural setting for such an event it is to be truly experienced to be believed a truly living crib with all the arts and crafts of the time in question I actually thought that it was a real event in the sense that it was all coming to life well it is difficult to explain maybe a film of the event would help to recreate some of the event a most wonderful religious experience for all those thaqt were present and that can be stated for both events. I had seen something similar which can be compared to the Uberamagau which is held every other year in Austria in Italy the Via Crucis is held yearly very moving too. All this is a kind of inner journey in the outer world a journey of discovery a widening and embracing of ones own life's experience You somehow find yourself captivated into this whirlwind of life and sadly it is all too soon over as this last year 2006 seems odd this how quick our lives revolve around and around and we all make the same mistake as we realise less and less how short our lives are and yes we are all the same. I wanted to write the first paragraph in red somewhow it did not work well what the heck still life is like that unpredictable that is the fun of our lives. I suppose as I was saying we are the year's end it is cold rainy and grey a grey day we are waiting in anticipation of what the new year will bring we are not to have too great expectations and also what about those good intentions for the new year those new year resolutions are we going to maintain them are we going to even think about new year's resolutions such as who knows what........ Positive thinking getting ready for a new life a life of bliss is that going to be possible considering the strange weather the uncertainties in this world cannot worry about this too much else would give up the idea of even thinking about new intentions I think for instance that I would like to give up on the news it is always so negativre and as I would like to aim for a blissful life you have to banish all negativities and that is a major fact of our depression we should create an alternative news a happy news of the wonderful things that happen in our lives not concentrate on the dark side of life I feel that that is truly the bane of our lives psychologically damming! So I would like to propose looking at life somehow through a sort of pink tinted glasses in order to try to uplift our souls not precipate them into the dark abyss of blackness and despair we have to inspire some hope and well being into our miserable existance else what a miserable lot we may become jsut too bad. Well somehow will endeavour to make that my main aim anyway there is no harm in trying even though it may not seem all that realistic still and what is reality anyway! It is certainly different for each and everyone of us we all have our dreams to create and to follow who knows where all this is leading us. Well I have just heard that Australia has already got there 2007 is already in full swing well lets wish us all and sundry a VERY HAPPY 2007!

STRESS

Well high there my blog I am shocked still from what happened the other day I wrote the other day it was the same subject STRESS and we all know what that means illness and strife and upset and headache and tiredness well it all went well and then the ultimate happened my contribution all vanished into the ether and I really do not know where and consequently was stressed out more than ever by that fact. So here goes again something along these lines.
I had stated all the different forms or causes directly responsible for causing us humans this so called stress bereavement and I have had that recently our Mr Twinkle the male cat died causing me stress then emptying not one but two properties in one year that too has caused me awful stress then work problems that is a constant form of stress relationship problems that too is a form of stress so as I was saying where is all this stress leading me to I was wondering?
I suppose a way to counteract it is to rest and meditate upon life and events to change tack to forget these events leading up to stress else this would inevitably cause worse illness depression how depressing is this realisation still to every problem there is a solution The main solution is to cut your suit according to your cloth now that makes sense but when there are people around you who want the penny and the bun life then becomes difficult also noone has ever heard of a shroud having a pocket except if you think about the Ancient Egyptians they certainly provided well for their afterlife.
That may well be a new outlook in life to meditate on our afterlife and to prepare for it that impending lifeless being that comes over us when we depart from this planet so we should all think about that time and prepare ourselves for this event as sadly it is inevitable for us all worst of all noone knows when so to be found in a state of unpreparedness is rubbish we should all be alert and ready for this event this change of status from being alive to not being alive a bit morbid a thought but then when we are gone gone too is our thought no more turmoil but peaceful and eternal rest a state of utter repose a state of eternal bliss.
The rainbow colours I have recently learnt are the basis of the colours that match our chakras like a rainbow so I am glad again once more for the idiosyncratic title for this blog still in its strangeness it makes sense well to me it does if to noone else. In this is the dawning of a new life a life of relaxation and repose of meditation and wanderings of exploration and fun and laughter and jollity ultimately leading to a new life of happiness I wish this to be so and it will be so though who knows at what cost as whatever we strive to do in our lives it will always be at the cost of losing out on other areas of our lives so difficult all this really so.I am in total admiration of those souls that set out in their lives with one main objective in their lives and they succeed in reaching that sole ambition and to excel in it whereas I am stuck as I have too many ideas to fulfill am successful at some but struggle in other directions.
It is precisely that not fulfilling our projects which creates that awful sense of stress so it is stressful to complete those projects as not to so do well so noone wins in this game called life and quite clearly some people do take it all too seriously still each to their own we must not judge. However whatever we do we have to follow our dreams else we will end up in a heap and that is useless more than useless. I suppose if at first you do not succeed try and try again also better to have tried and failed than not to have tried at all and whatever you do do well in life. Still it is the interference of others that sometimes changes the course of ones life as a woman I like things just as they are or were as in my case not certainly this current maelstrom of events which drag one down. Still things hopefully can only get better!
As we mature situations change and we then realise the nonsense of a lot of things though maybe beyond our control that in itself is a good thing as long as we can reason along and make those necessary adjustments or changes in line with our current situation and that we are in tune with our surroundings and that is the worry how ready are we ever going to be with this wretched global warming I have stated all along just get the stops out and start planting more and more trees to reddress that balance in fact heard on the news am that China is currently doing just that for the Olympics as their air is quite fetid in certain areas so need to clean it up well we should all do our bit I know that I am doing mine walking more taking local transport all for the sake of this here our planet recycling it is after all up to us all if we all make that little effort yet it seems futile when you see all those gas guzzling monster vehicles that are adamant in carrying on regardless. Maybe introduce alternate days of car usage seems that ice is melting faster than predicted seems 50 years before it is all melted then what Watch this space!
Well must dash now as am running out of inspiration and am frightening the pants off me regards this kind of Gothic thought about global warming and the consequences it is going to cause us all We are maybe the last generation of people to know the world as we do who knows what lays ahead of us and I was being reassured that we were emerging from this Kaliuga time of strife and stress and entering a phase of worldly happiness that seems strange Still maybe time to make amends to change the course of all our destinies with the power of prayer and good deeds and actions I fear that Goverments also are quite helpless in helping us mere mortals who knows what to do in this situation and yet I feel that all bloggers should unite in putting their heads together and coming up with tangible solutions as I fear that governments seem clueless in knowing what to suggest that we all do to redress this global warming still we should all look after each other in trying to recreate that sense of community and look out for each other.
Well indeed Nature is currently playing funny tricks Seasons are somehow longer or so it seems less definition between seasons and so on well in UK currently seem to have Monsoon weather relentlessly need to calm things down and be reassured. So where do we go from here I wonder odd this thought we have to think in different thought patterns in fact our thoughts are also evolving in this it is all I suppose a sense of survival well at least I think so we have to think along those lines maybe we should be taught survival techniques in the event of disasters seen excellent programmes on the very subject need to swot to learn more never know. We are no doubt in the lap of the gods so our future is well mapped out noone knows but all will be revealed. A lot of what we value in life is evolving life is moving that fast life itself is changing most of us do not even realise this fact it is the toilers of the sea and the tillers of the land that notice this more than us townies city born dwellers and it will hardest for us to adjust to the evolving and changing planet with that comforting thought I bid you good night!
