I think there is a shade of difference between guilt and shame.  Shame is something that hides, while guilt is in the open.  A certain amount of guilt may be a good thing if it serves as a reminder of behavior that one would like to avoid in the future.  Shame, on the other hand, is s...

My thoughts on this are a little sketchy, but I believe that if we attach enough significance to a number, object, etc. that it will end up manifesting itself significantly in our experience.  In other words, if I believe strongly that Friday the 13th will be a day of bad luck, I am likely to e...

I just turned 42 last month.  I am just now finishing my last class for my masters degree, just settling into a new job, and finally gaining some sense of peace and stablility in my home.  It finally feels as if I have some breathing room in which to ponder upon the more spiritual aspects ...

Well stated.  Thanks for sharing this.  There are always opportunities to be found in times of personal crisis.

Peace to all around the world who suffer for their beliefs.

I generally feel like a winner.  When I start to feel like a loser, I sit down with a guitar or at the piano and play until I feel like a winner again.  If I still don't feel like a winner after playing for awhile, I sing a blues song.  At least then I'm a loser in good company...

I really like the way the question is phrased -- "What is your truth?"  I believe truth to be a relative term, depending entirely upon one's perspective.  Since I am not in a position to know the truth behind the causes of the earthquake, I choose to focus upon what seems to me to be a mor...

I have to agree with everyone who said that your mood dictates your taste at any given moment.  For me, at this moment, my favorite is Neil Young.  I tend to like singer/songwriters, and can listen all night to someone singing heartfelt lyrics cradled by inspired musical composition.

Do these feelings occur in any particular situation?  What kind of other feelings are associated with them (eg, tunnel vision, sweating, feelings of being excessively warm, etc.)?

When I was around 5, my family lived in a big farm house.  There seemed to be wasp nests everywhere.  I must have been stung by wasps over 10 times during the time we lived there.  They still scare me to this day.  They seem to have some kind of malicious intelligence...

I have seen faces at times when I am very tired and lying down with my eyes closed.  I can't say I was in a state of near sleep, just relaxing.  There is no particular face that I see, but a series of faces, various nationalities, that sort of morph into each other.  Most of the faces...

I remember when I was around two, my family lived in a half-double.  There was an elderly woman (at least she seemed old to me) who lived on the other side.  I remember her giving me cookies on the front porch one day while it was raining.  I'm not really sure why this memory hangs on...

Hi, I am new to this forum.  I am looking forward to learning from everyone, as I only have a passing familiarity with many of the topics I see listed.  I have had an interest in Tarot for several years, but time and toil have kept me from really developing an understanding of it.  I ...
