I enjoy listening to some of the videos on You Tube. I have a down loader to put the videos on the computer so I do not get the interruptions. I downloaded some free videos and figured that I would enjoy listening to them while I wrote up some new prayers and methods for my clients.
I did really good because I did not hear any distracting sounds. I have a screen door on the front of the unit I am in and saw the neighbors going by even with only seeing their feet. No one really stopped but they slowed down in front of the door. I saw different feet than I have seen before.
I was able to do the writing I had to do quickly because I was listening to healing sounds and it kept me going. I was inspired and I plan to do it again. I kept seeing the feet circling in the hallway. Kids playing and baby strollers going by which was unusual. I do hear the neighbors and their children but not all the time. The baby that is normally crying went by laughing.
I was proud of myself and knew I had been a considerate quiet neighbor. I took off the headsets with out stopping the recording and the computer loudspeakers were playing the sounds. Everyone could hear these weird vibrations sounding like something electrical was really messed up.
I said " Darn those sounds were supposed to go through the headphones and heard someone laughing. They must have been trying to figure out what was broken or what was making the weird sounds. The harmonics were healing the hallway. I always say that computers teach us humility. Yet it is one of the best laughs I have had in a while. Most of my neighbors are busy people. This was about dinner time.
I hope that it breaks the ice. I started to go down to the floor with karaoke machines because I was making to much noise singing in my unit. I do a pretty good Bon Jovi on Bed of Roses and It's my Life. I do a good Gun n Roses on November Rain. I have my favorites but I did not realize that I could be heard over the whole floor and the people above and below could hear me with out a microphone.
I bet every neighbor I have would vote right now to get rid of the weird sounds and just have me sing. Life is funny in many ways but I thought of the people upstairs trying to hear where the appliances were broken and just had to laugh. Enjoy your life even if you have to laugh at yourself. Laughter and joy in life bring us closer to everything good that prevents our having a good attitude.

True Humility- thoughts on thinking only of yourself
True humility is intelligent self respect which keeps us from thinking too highly or too meanly of ourselves. It makes us modest by reminding us how far we have come short of what we can be.Ralph W. Sockman
I tried to write on a screen play I am doing today. I know after trying to use the free software I am going back to the paid software which is easier. I had about despaired but found I had registered the software so even if I lost it on my computer I could get help. I was able to upgrade the program even with my last laptop no longer functioning. I was so relieved. In the new download it had the message when done. Please register your program and protect your money and your investment.
I feel that computers, software and many of the social networks today teach humility and lessons. I see so many people promoting others that are really promoting themselves. I am good at doing the work and not good at promoting myself. I always feel that my work should speak for itself. Yet others judge you and think of the things they would do. I have had people who never contacted me say people should beware of me because I ask for money, do not give a business address, and do not give a phone number.
I work through email because it is easier. I use SKYPE for conference calls because it is cheapest, and is not a phone number people can call where I am woken up through out the day and night. Yes that has happened with people insisting I heal them because I should do this work for free. I do not give an address because the business is on the web. Yet this person felt that they could judge me because others had caused them problems.
So what do we do with our lives. Do we pick apart others for no reason. I notice some people have looked at my photos and said everything in them could be explained by my knowing photo shop. I do not have photo shop at all on my computer and just know how to crop and lighten. Yet they told me complex ways to do things that I had never thought of doing and their photos looked like they did them that way. The person harassed me for months.
How does this connect to humility? All these people were thinking of themselves. They never once looked at the photos with fascination. They never once thought how it would feel to be called up in the middle of the night or early morning and wake up everyone in the household yelling at me over the phone that I had to heal them. They missed out on the whole point of interacting with others.They thought only of themselves.
Humility is all about how you feel about yourself. A humble person can be said to have low self-esteem at times. In our world we do not put ourselves in the other persons place or think I would not want that done to me. In our world we think I took great photos but hers are better so I will say she is a phony. So should this also be that empathy is part of being humble. I think so because most of the humble people of the world loved others and always thought of them differently than what we do today.
I can see it in my own life and promise myself each day to put myself in the place of others and show compassion to them. I hope all of you think about a daily promise so that you think more of others. It may be the nicest thing you have done for yourself. I may use examples from my life but every person I admire through out history has had similar issues. Maybe humankind will show the divine side of itself when they think more of others in their lives. We may hear we should put ourselves as number one but we are part of a community. Every thing we are as a person good or bad is shaped by the people we are around. Our teachers, family, friends, community and world. We are not only ourselves.

Jealousy, Comparision and Competition
The
surest route to breeding jealousy is to compare. Since jealousy comes
from feeling less than another, comparisons only fan the fires.
Dorothy Corkville Briggs
Comparisons and competition are the surest way to lose friends, respect, and make yourself hateful to everyone. We become jealous of others because we have doubts about ourselves. We do not live in truth realizing that no one is the same as the another person. So we are unable to duplicate the talents of another person. We are all different and blessed with different talents.
I have always enjoyed a good discussion. I have had many problems with people willing to fight to the death over the fact that they were right. If I was right it was a permanent insult to them. They doubted themselves and I was the cause of it so they became angry. If I did something I wanted to do or that they wanted to happen to them they became jealous. It was why did that happen to her as I deserve that to happen to me. They competed and most of the time we did not end up friends no matter how much I tried to ignore it.
I always wonder how they can make their life so miserable by trying to prove they are the best. They have fun trying to shame and humiliate the person instead of moving on from the past. You can never change your life occurrences so the past will always have an influence. You tell what happens with your life and if it is bad people say you are clinging to the past. It can be true or just a statement of facts.
The problem is when the past is all about your competing and being jealous of others. I always try to forgive myself and the other person and move onward. Jealousy is destructive and like a war. You can win and destroy everything you love, and want in your life. Are you a jealous person or compare yourself to everyone and compete with others to show how you are the best? If you do think how much fun it would be to just be yourself and have joy in your life.

Do Most People Ignore Divine Help and Mercy?
I love the LORD, for he heard my voice; he heard my cry for mercy. Because he
turned his ear to me, I will call on him as long as I live. (Psalms 116:1-2 NIV
I know that I had the Bible sort of shoved down my throat when I was a child. I was so sick and tired of going to bible school that it took me years to go back into a church. Yet I always prayed to God. I have studied many different religions and am of the opinion that God is the same God in all of them just with different names and shapes. People can not understand or perceive God in his entire form. So it seems to make sense why there are different religions.
I work with people who are of different religions and having problems. If they were able to hear God's voice and advice it would change many peoples lives. I do work where things improve for them and it is always by connection through God and helping them to reconnect to the divine energies in their lives. Yet when I ask them if anything has changed most of the time I do not hear it has changed. I always have to state have things started to go better in the little ways. Just a day that goes right.
I have had multiple problems recently and yet I know God heard my voice. I was about ready to give up and two people showed up and helped me. I had lost my faith in what I heard and I was shown that I was right but I had ignored the voice of guidance and did things the hard way.
How many times do we ignore the things that happen because we want a big change and do not appreciate the progression of small changes that brings about the positive results where a big change can occur. I have had people act like I am supposed to be perfect and not have problems when I do have problems. I also have them get upset at me because they depend upon me.
I have had internet problems and other problems trying to live in a foreign country and most people do not even understand what that is like unless they have lived in another country. Yet God has heard my voice and shown mercy to me where people help me.
Look at your lives and see if the little things have been moving you towards the good things. The love of your life, a good job, a better place to live. Maybe most people are to impatient and try to shape and control their life instead of giving it over to the command of the divine so he can shape it in the best way. It may mean there are rough times before a good result happens but good results always happen once you do the decisions in the best way and remove the expectations of everything and everyone being perfect. Nothing is perfect except the divine.

Being Thankful
- "Be thankful for what you have; you'll end up having more. If you concentrate on what you don't have, you will never, ever have enough." -- Oprah Winfrey
I have finally done it. Made it so I have a way to live here and not have to worry about how to get my money from the United States to the Philippines. I started this journey because I needed a new life. I never expected some of the surprises that I did have in my life in 2012. Yet I kept working on making my own life better and doing the best that I can to be a good person.
The only way I survived this is through the kindness of others, and the fact that I did have some savings in the Filipino banks. Yet if you would have told me the ups and downs of moving to another country I would have been surprised. I know some people have felt that I let them down. Most of the people have just been happy I am OK.
I have to be thankful for the people I have met that were kind to me, my online friends, and just luck or help from God in general. It depends upon how you want to put it in your life. I know that God showed up in my life where I did have people help me when I had problems both here and in the states. I now have to get my website better known again. I will do this the best that I can but it has not been easy. I had just redone my website and still need to figure out how to do meta tags.
Life has its ups and downs but at least I am OK and able to live in a new apartment with working air conditioning and plumbing. The other apartment cost more also and they never repaired anything. The new place is a little larger and they fix things. So I have to be grateful for finding the new apartment.
I want to thank everyone for all of their kindness and emails.
