About Me

Louise Hay ~ You Can Heal Your Life
Three things in human life are important:
The first is to be kind.
The second is to be kind.
And the third is to be kind."
~ Henry James
The Celtic Virtues
"Briefly stated the virtue of Honor requires one to adhere to their oaths and do the right thing, even if it will ultimately hurt others or oneself in the process.
A Druid is obligated to remain true to friends, family and leaders thus exhibiting the virtue of Loyalty.
Hospitality demands that a Druid be a good host when guests are under one's roof.
Honesty insists that one tell the truth the whole truth and nothing but the truth to yourself, your gods and your people.
Justice desires the Druid understands everyone has an inherent worth and that an assault to that worth demands recompense in one form or another.
Courage for the Druid does not always wear a public face; it is standing-strong-in-the-face-of-adversity, alone or with companions. Sometimes Courage is getting up and going about a daily routine when pain has worn one down, without complaint or demur."
Myspace Chinese Astrology
"Although attempting to bring about world peace through the internal transformation of individuals is difficult, it is the only way. Wherever I go, I express this, and I am encouraged that people from many different walks of life receive it well. Peace must first be developed within an individual. And I believe that love, compassion, and altruism are the fundamental basis for peace. Once these qualities are developed within an individual, he or she is then able to create an atmosphere of peace and harmony. This atmosphere can be expanded and extended from the individual to his family, from the family to the community and eventually to the whole world"
~H.H. the Dalai Lama

*THE TEN COMMANDMENTS OF MOTHER EARTH*
I. Thou shalt love and honour the Earth for it blesses thy life and governs thy survival.
II. Thou shalt keep each day sacred to the Earth and celebrate the turning of its seasons.
III. Thou shalt not hold thyself above other living things nor drive them to extinction.
IV. Thou shalt give thanks for thy food, to the creatures and plants that nourish thee.
V. Thou shalt educate thy offspring for multitudes of people are a blessing unto the Earth when we live in harmony.
VI. Thou shall not kill, nor waste Earth's riches upon weapons of war.
VII. Thou shalt not pursue profit at the Earth's expense but strive to restore its damaged majesty.
VIII. Thou shalt not hide from thyself or others the consequences of thy actions upon the Earth.
IX. Thou shalt not steal from future generations by impoverishing or poisoning the Earth.
X. Thou shalt consume material goods in moderation so all may share the Earth's bounty.
If all fossil fuels and their derivatives, as well as trees for paper and construction, were banned in order to save the planet, reverse the greenhouse effect and stop deforestation; then there is only one known annually renewable natural resource that is capable of providing the overall majority of the world's paper and textiles; meet all of the world's transportation, industrial and home energy needs, while simultaneously reducing pollution, rebuilding the soil and cleaning the atmosphere all at the same time... and that substance is the same one that has done it before . . .

Music is behind life, and rules life; from music springs all life.
The whole creation exists in rhythm.

that there is one common source of human disease;
and that is disorder in rhythm."

if I could always have plenty of music.
It seems to infuse strength into my limbs and ideas into my brain.
Life seems to go on without effort, when I am filled with music."

"When I first started acting, it was because of my desire to connect with everyone. To that thing inside each of us. That light that I believe exists in all of us. Because acting for me is about believing in that connection. And it is a connection so strong. It is a connection so deep. That we feel it through our combined release. We can create a new reality. . . .
