- ENJOY THE RIDE!This past Halloween, I visited Six Flags and waited in line for almost two hours to get a ride on the 'Goliath', one of the larger roller coasters in North America. Even in the drizzle and cold weather, I felt warm and prickly inside, excited by the anticipation of the enormous 200 foot climb to the top. Finally, I boarded a car, seated next to a stranger, who was equally charged ...

- I am trying to create a new life style. Aiming for a Life style where the wholistic (we are all one) p.o.v. is evident, spirituality present and love omniscient.

Thoughts and perceptions had deceived me into thinking I possessed an open mind as I watched life through a glass prison door.

- A few days ago they said there would be no water for 24 hours in some parts of the city. We filled buckets and empty vessels and covered them up ever since it was discovered that mosquitoes now prefer clean water.
