The joy of losing




Losing is something that we are frightened of that brings to mind the darkness days of ones life.the moments of pure hell and humiliation at school or with close friends.
But without losing there would be no winners .We have start to view winning at all costs as the old view .The old world view of the the animal life or death ,the battle to the end.Food or no food for the tribe the life or death of the tribe.
To bring this to a group sitting how to make a game that excites the people that play it but does not destroy the game players with the idea of win only mentally
So to the present day, do we need levels
of winning were the participation of physical activity is fun and challenging.
Lets think of animal fighting.The want of the survival situation the food and protection of the tribe.
Can we move forword with a proactive game that builds good charactors from the joy of losing.

The church spire image of western wealth

The church spire theory of wealth distribution in the western world.People around the western world can be easily placed on top the finical image of the church spire ,the very top of the spire being the place of the ultra rich and placed into the bottom within the catacombs the poor and the majority of the people .



The hope is the centre chapel is the great middle class the buffer zone of monies held .With the big hopes of getting to the top . Of having money and things,just things the more the better.

Stop the consummation of stuff and were out what you have.This is against the nature of the world we live in.You cant stop the buying mental but you can slow it down.

What we think we know ...

The story that outlines are sometimes over reaching idea of what we think we really know about the universe around us .The illusion that science has all the answers right now.



A explorer was traveling throughout a distance land and came upon a new village unknown to him and others on his trip.He stayed at the village for several months and enjoyed the peoples hospitality.



But like all good things it had to come to a end .Before leaving the village the wise men came together to watch the explorers leave.



The explorer talked about how much more knowledge he had and that he was more worldly than the village elders.He bent down and drew a small circle and then a large circle around it.He said the small circle is what you the old men know and the large circle is the what we the exploriers knew a great deal.



One of the old men came towards the circles in the sand and drew a larger circle around them both.



"This is what we both don't know about the great world and space around us"

The old man walked back to the group and sat down.



This is a good tale about the how we think we know it all.

rules for being human


This list was given to me sometime ago ,then it come up in a book so I don't really know were these come from.


You will given a body and it is your body for the rest of your life ,long or short as it is.




people only mirror you what you see is what you are giving them.




things that we hate in others is what we hate in ourselves.




there is no better place than here




to be able to forgive is not just good for getting into heaven it is the best Revenge.For if you do not the anger and hate will destroy you.


it seems that the more you want something the more you have to move away from it .Most important things are found under stone that we are not looking under.


giving is always better the more you give the more people give to you in that indirect way.






Times effect on us all.

"Round, like a circle in a spiralLike a wheel within a wheel.Never ending or beginning, On an ever spinning wheelLike a snowball down a mountainOr a carnaval balloonLike a carousell that's turningRunning rings around the moonLike a clock whose hands are sweepingPast the minutes on it's faceAnd the world is like an appleWhirling silently in spaceLike the circles that you findIn the windmills of your mindLike a tunnel that you follow To a tunnel of it's ownDown a hollow to a cavernWhere the sun has never shoneLike a door that keeps revolvingIn a half forgotten dreamOr the ripples from a pebble Someone tosses in a stream.Like a clock whose hands are sweepingPast the minutes on it's faceAnd the world is like an appleWhirling silently in spaceLike the circles that you findIn the windmills of your mindKeys that jingle in your pocketWords that jangle your headWhy did summer go so quickly Was it something that I saidLovers walking allong the shore, Leave their footprints in the sandWas the sound of distant drumming Just the fingers of your handPictures hanging in a hallwayAnd a fragment of this songHalf remembered names and faces But to whom do they belongWhen you knew that it was overWere you suddenly awareThat the autumn leaves were turningTo the color of her hairLike a circle in a spiralLike a wheel within a wheelNever ending or beginning, On an ever spinning wheelAs the images unwindLike the circle that you findIn the windmills of your mindPictures hanging in a hallwayAnd the fragment of this songHalf remembered names and faces But to whom do they belongWhen you knew that it was overWere you suddenly awareThat the autumn leaves were turningTo the color of her hairLike a circle in a spiralLike a wheel within a wheelNever ending or beginning, On an ever spinning wheelAs the images unwindLike the circles that you findIn the windmills of your mind"


The song above tries to place time into a picture of human experience and therefore a start and a end.But is not time a moment of now ,now ,right now.

rudeness when on hoilday


Having just returned from the UK from holiday.I noticed that people Que alot and some were very rude.Rudeness is something that we all in someway deal with every day.It is sad that this rudeness is around but we all have to learn to work with it .My feeling is related to the movement of different energies we are comforted with .The person pushes a very negative energy onto us and we have to work with it .We can push back very hard and cause a bad situation into a dangerous one.Or we can learn to move the energy into different field and therefore making a battle into changed outcome .

Rudeness can led to anger and fights but it can lead to a problem resolved at the moment of confrontation.Remember to change the energy and see the big picture first .
