Once upon a time, there was a Queen who had four lovers.

Once upon a time, there was a Queen who had four lovers.

She loved the 4th lover the most and she gave him nothing but the Best.

She also loved the 3rd lover very much and was always showing him off.

She also loved her 2nd lover. He was her confidant and was always kind, considerate and patient with her.

The Queen’s 1st lover was a very loyal partner and although he loved her deeply, she hardly took notice of him.

One day, the Queen fell ill and she knew her time was short. She thought of her luxurious life and wondered, I now have four lovers with me, but when I die, I'll be all alone.

Thus, she asked the 4th lover, “I loved you the most. Now that I'm dying, will you follow me and keep me company?” 'No way!' replied the 4th lover, and he walked away without another word.

The sad Queen then asked the 3rd lover, “I loved you all my life. Now that I'm dying, will you follow me and keep me company?” 'No!' replied the 3rd lover. When you die, I'm going to love someone else!'

She then asked the 2nd lover, “I have always turned to you for help. When I die, will you follow me and keep me company?” Replied the 2nd lover, 'At the very most, I can only walk with you to your grave.'

Then a voice called out: 'I'll go with you. I'll follow you no matter where you go.'

The Queen looked up, and there was her first lover.

He was very skinny as he suffered from neglect.

Greatly grieved, the Queen said, “I should have taken much better care of you when I had the chance!”

n truth, you have 4 lovers in your life:

Your 4th lover is your body.

No matter how much time and effort you lavish in making it look good, it will leave you when you die…

Your 3rd lover is your possessions, status and wealth.

When you die, it will all go to others.

Your 2nd lover is your family and friends.

No matter how much they have been there for you, the furthest they can stay by you is up to the Grave.

And your 1st lover is your Soul, often neglected in pursuit of wealth, power and pleasures of the world.

However, your Soul is the only thing that will follow you where ever you go.

Cultivate, strengthen and cherish it now, for it is the only part of you that will follow you to the throne of God and continue with you throughout Eternity.

Thought for the day: Remember, when the world pushes you to your knees, You're in the perfect position to pray.

Being happy doesn't mean everything in your life is perfect.
It means you've decided to see beyond the imperfections and appreciate what you have.

I've work hard to forgive myself lately for being me and being grateful for all the things that i've created for myself here in America. Things are easy for me here, there is always enough food, more then enough clothing, shelter, cars and planty of time to do what i wish. I miss the peace that comes to me effortlessly while i was in Asia. How can i find my middle path between here and there. Any thing is possible right? I have to go into my imagination and create what that looks like to me. Dear universe could you help me? Please?

In Thailand it is not legal to see a begger on the street but in Cambodia i saw tons all ages...i have learn somthing that is a WIN WIN situation i wanted to share with all of you reading this. When someone beg me i asked if they are hungry all will say "yes" I ask them to sit and i buy them food instead of giving them money which we are not suppose to do for many reasons...but if you buy them food the vender makes a living, the begger get food in thier stomache, i get to smile and send their gratitude to all my friends and family that gave me money to help the people....This is working very well. I will send pictures when i have more time, i don't get to be around internet very often or a bathroom with toilet paper, another i'm far away from tourist places.

I am in the city call Siem Reap right now where the temple of Angkor Wat and many other temples are( I will post pictures as soon as I have more time) will be here for another night. So far this trip had been really heart opening for me, between the hundreds of kids begging and selling things on the street and the small venders trying to make a dollar a day to feed their family, the tuk tuk drivers fighting to take you places... I want to help all of them but I know that I’m physically unable to help them all, so I smile and sending love and blessing.

I have been told once or twice in my life that the journey in a happy life is only 18" inches long
Which is between my head to my heart....it has been a life long search for me to find tools to see where i am going. But is has been infront of me all along, my mind has a tool call "believe" and my heart has a tool call "feeling" together they seems to unlock any darkness that are lerking as a shadow to blind us from a happy and healthy life...I feel awake at this moment.

The Egg

By: Andy Weir



You were on your way home when you died.

It was a car accident. Nothing particularly remarkable, but fatal nonetheless. You left behind a wife and two children. It was a painless death. The EMTs tried their best to save you, but to no avail. Your body was so utterly shattered you were better off, trust me.

And that’s when you met me.

“What… what happened?” You asked. “Where am I?”

“You died,” I said, matter-of-factly. No point in mincing words.

“There was a… a truck and it was skidding…”

“Yup,” I said.

“I… I died?”

“Yup. But don’t feel bad about it. Everyone dies,” I said.

You looked around. There was nothingness. Just you and me. “What is this place?” You asked. “Is this the afterlife?”

“More or less,” I said.

“Are you god?” You asked.

“Yup,” I replied. “I’m God.”

“My kids… my wife,” you said.

“What about them?”

“Will they be all right?”

“That’s what I like to see,” I said. “You just died and your main concern is for your family. That’s good stuff right there.”

You looked at me with fascination. To you, I didn’t look like God. I just looked like some man. Or possibly a woman. Some vague authority figure, maybe. More of a grammar school teacher than the almighty.

“Don’t worry,” I said. “They’ll be fine. Your kids will remember you as perfect in every way. They didn’t have time to grow contempt for you. Your wife will cry on the outside, but will be secretly relieved. To be fair, your marriage was falling apart. If it’s any consolation, she’ll feel very guilty for feeling relieved.”

“Oh,” you said. “So what happens now? Do I go to heaven or hell or something?”

“Neither,” I said. “You’ll be reincarnated.”

“Ah,” you said. “So the Hindus were right,”

“All religions are right in their own way,” I said. “Walk with me.”

You followed along as we strode through the void. “Where are we going?”

“Nowhere in particular,” I said. “It’s just nice to walk while we talk.”

“So what’s the point, then?” You asked. “When I get reborn, I’ll just be a blank slate, right? A baby. So all my experiences and everything I did in this life won’t matter.”

“Not so!” I said. “You have within you all the knowledge and experiences of all your past lives. You just don’t remember them right now.”

I stopped walking and took you by the shoulders. “Your soul is more magnificent, beautiful, and gigantic than you can possibly imagine. A human mind can only contain a tiny fraction of what you are. It’s like sticking your finger in a glass of water to see if it’s hot or cold. You put a tiny part of yourself into the vessel, and when you bring it back out, you’ve gained all the experiences it had.

“You’ve been in a human for the last 48 years, so you haven’t stretched out yet and felt the rest of your immense consciousness. If we hung out here for long enough, you’d start remembering everything. But there’s no point to doing that between each life.”

“How many times have I been reincarnated, then?”

“Oh lots. Lots and lots. An in to lots of different lives.” I said. “This time around, you’ll be a Chinese peasant girl in 540 AD.”

“Wait, what?” You stammered. “You’re sending me back in time?”

“Well, I guess technically. Time, as you know it, only exists in your universe. Things are different where I come from.”

“Where you come from?” You said.

“Oh sure,” I explained “I come from somewhere. Somewhere else. And there are others like me. I know you’ll want to know what it’s like there, but honestly you wouldn’t understand.”

“Oh,” you said, a little let down. “But wait. If I get reincarnated to other places in time, I could have interacted with myself at some point.”

“Sure. Happens all the time. And with both lives only aware of their own lifespan you don’t even know it’s happening.”

“So what’s the point of it all?”

“Seriously?” I asked. “Seriously? You’re asking me for the meaning of life? Isn’t that a little stereotypical?”

“Well it’s a reasonable question,” you persisted.

I looked you in the eye. “The meaning of life, the reason I made this whole universe, is for you to mature.”

“You mean mankind? You want us to mature?”

“No, just you. I made this whole universe for you. With each new life you grow and mature and become a larger and greater intellect.”

“Just me? What about everyone else?”

“There is no one else,” I said. “In this universe, there’s just you and me.”

You stared blankly at me. “But all the people on earth…”

“All you. Different incarnations of you.”

“Wait. I’m everyone!?”

“Now you’re getting it,” I said, with a congratulatory slap on the back.

“I’m every human being who ever lived?”

“Or who will ever live, yes.”

“I’m Abraham Lincoln?”

“And you’re John Wilkes Booth, too,” I added.

“I’m Hitler?” You said, appalled.

“And you’re the millions he killed.”

“I’m Jesus?”

“And you’re everyone who followed him.”

You fell silent.

“Every time you victimized someone,” I said, “you were victimizing yourself. Every act of kindness you’ve done, you’ve done to yourself. Every happy and sad moment ever experienced by any human was, or will be, experienced by you.”

You thought for a long time.

“Why?” You asked me. “Why do all this?”

“Because someday, you will become like me. Because that’s what you are. You’re one of my kind. You’re my child.”

“Whoa,” you said, incredulous. “You mean I’m a god?”

“No. Not yet. You’re a fetus. You’re still growing. Once you’ve lived every human life throughout all time, you will have grown enough to be born.”

“So the whole universe,” you said, “it’s just…”

“An egg.” I answered. “Now it’s time for you to move on to your next life.”

And I sent you on your way.

are only warning signs that I was living against my own truth.
Today, I know, this is "AUTHENTICITY".

As I began to love myself I understood how much it can offend somebody
as I try to force my desires on this person,
even though I knew the time was not right and the person was not ready for it,
and even though this person was me.
Today I call it "RESPECT".

As I began to love myself I stopped craving for a different life,
and I could see that everything that surrounded me was inviting me to grow.
Today I call it "MATURITY".

As I began to love myself I understood that at any circumstance,
I am in the right place at the right time,
and everything happens at the exactly right moment.
So I could be calm.
Today I call it "SELF-CONFIDENCE".

As I began to love myself I quit stealing my own time,
and I stopped designing huge projects for the future.
Today, I only do what brings me joy and happiness,
things I love to do and that make my heart cheer,
and I do them in my own way and in my own rhythm.
Today I call it "SIMPLICITY".

As I began to love myself I freed myself of anything
that is no good for my health - food, people, things, situations,
and everything the drew me down and away from myself.
At first I called this attitude a healthy egoism.
Today I know it is "LOVE OF ONESELF".

As I began to love myself I quit trying to always be right,
and ever since I was wrong less of the time.
Today I discovered that is "MODESTY".

As I began to love myself I refused to go on living in the past
and worry about the future. Now, I only live for the moment,
where EVERYTHING is happening.
Today I live each day, day by day, and I call it. "FULFILLMENT".

As I began to love myself I recognized that my mind can disturb me
and it can make me sick.
But As I connected it to my heart, my mind became a valuable ally.
Today I call this connection "WISDOM OF THE HEART".

We no longer need to fear arguments,
confrontations or any kind of problems with ourselves or others.
Even stars collide, and out of their crashing new worlds are born.
Today I know THAT IS "LIFE"! Borrow~

No one or no things can make us happy, well maybe for a little while but when others people or things makes us happy it is just superficial happiness.

When you find it within yourself it is magical, everything and everyone is sooo beautiful in the world around you, and here is the best part, the world around you only have love for you because that is your reflection, reflecting back at you.
It is real and it has always been there, when we feel lost it is not lost we just forget.

we surround ourselves with people that are willing to remind us what love is and again we remember...animals and children are the best reminders…..

So whatever questions or problems we have in life we can always tap into other subconscious and ask for help. For example when ever i have a question about something i go into meditation and think for someone that can help me. If i want to learn more compassion i would think of mother Teresa or whom ever that i think know about compassion and visualize him or her sitting in front of me and ask for help. Then i just listen...if i don't get the answer right of way it is OK. It means that i need to pay attention to everything around me. Sometimes the answer will come in movie that i choose to watch or a person that meet on the street or a situation that play out so that i can see and feel and have a chance to react and then recognize that there is more compassion flowing through me. It is that easy, we just need to ask!

We meet people all the time, some of us everyday, some of us chose not to look up and see, and some of us don’t realize what we’re seeing. Life is like a movie in which our eyes see the screen of perceptions. What we learn from our perceptions is what we seem to take that as our reality. In being a student to life, I have learned that photography allows me to stop the screen and see what I miss while I was too busy making judgments and my own perceptions for my reality.

If we learn from all things, I want to share with you what I have learned from photographing bridges, doors and fences. I see them as symbols to our connections to humanity and our relationships with each others. There are many bridges in the world; some get cross everyday by thousands of lives, and some never get cross at all. There are unnecessary fences that we put up in life due to our fears, ignorance and lack of understanding. It’s our journey to connect or disconnect from one another. I see doors as a symbol to our connections with our human spirits. Each time we open a door, is like shaking someone’s hand, we never know what lies behind it. It could be as simple as opening the door into our own home every day. Or opening a new door to meeting someone new and to learning something from them that we did not know we have to learn in order to grow.

When we meet each other, if we do our best to pay attention to who we truly are and what lessons or gifts are we giving and receiving. When we look at each other in this perspective we tend to see one another with less judgment and more compassion, knowing that we are all here for the same reasons. TO LOVE and TO BE LOVE.
