About Me

I am hoping myspace will help me to re-connect with old friends and make some new ones as well... I don't currently know what to write about myself and I am not into writing a bunch of useless babble...I enjoy reading "useless babble" however, writing it, "not so much". I will be posting regular blogs. The blogs will mostly be excerpts from a variety of meditation books. I have gained a great deal of wisdom and peace through reading these types of books. I will be sharing my thoughts from time to time on a variety of subjects along with the meditations for anyone who may be interested in joining me. Please come back to visit..... I love the company!.......UPDATE: I plan to randomly rotate my "Top 24 Friends" to display some of the great new people I have met here on myspace. SO, if you are in "the group" then you should show up on top from time to time... That's all for now. :) HOT Myspace Layouts

You are The Wheel of Fortune

Good fortune and happiness but sometimes a species of intoxication with success

The Wheel of Fortune is all about big things, luck, change, fortune. Almost always good fortune. You are lucky in all things that you do and happy with the things that come to you. Be careful that success does not go to your head however. Sometimes luck can change.

Music:

One day I caught myself staring at an empty "Music box", you know, on the profile editing page..My musical interests are SO widely varied that completing this section had become FAR too daunting. The emptiness seemed to imply the opposite of my true feelings about music...So, when it comes to music here is my current thought-- I truly am awe inspired by music and the mystical power it seems to wield over us. It can perform so many functions. It motivates, initiates, sooths, irritates, inspires. It can be a time machine that takes you back or pushes you forward! It can evoke any one of the limitless emotions that humans feel.....SO, I decided to type something, anything, so that the empty box would stop taunting me! ................

Movies:

I was at the local blockbuster one night near a woman and her two children, as I searched for a flick for the night I noticed that each time one of her kids would pick up a movie for her approval, she would look it over & the determining factor for a "thumbs up or down response" was this: Is it "happy"? If she found that it likely was not "happy" then she would simply say "That's not Happy" in a very pleasant, "happy" way and they moved on. Today that's how I feel about movies. There are SO many out there I could easily construct a ridiculously long list of the movies I personally feel are great. There are many and OH there are some GOOD ones to list. BUT today my philosophy with respect to movies is simply this, If "it's not happy" (on some level, at least) then I probably don't want to see it. I can step out into the world on any given day and find something that saddens me. I watch a movie to escape those things, if only for a couple of hours.Michael Jordan
