It's all about me.

Phew! Well we are only on day four of 08 and it's going well! How about you?

The Universe will not place in your life what you want, unless you clear the path first. It's not easy, but don't settle for anything less!

Too many people, feel they don't deserve better. For example, amazing women who are abused by men, men who take out their insecurities on loving partners. It saddens me, to hear stories that would make your skin crawl, or worse, ones that you could relate to.

By the way, this isn't a men bashing session, there are men who feel helpless and have lost their ability to recognise who they are, well yes - a man, but also a soul sitting in a human body.

The need for approval is becoming an epidemic, in this mad world, we seem to have lost sight of who we really are. An acquaintance of mine, spent the whole time talking about himself, in my boredom, counting how many times he said "I" passed the time! The sad part is, that it raised the question, did he know himself at all? Perhaps he only knew who he wanted to be, and more importantly, how he wanted other people to see him. There is no such thing as approval, because we are all equal.

A good exercise is to try to illiminate the word "I" from your vocabulary, and replace it with "me" or your name. It helps us to speak from the soul, rather than from our conditioned mind. When we say "I" we are talking about the person that we want others to see. We are detached from who really are inside.

When we learn to get to know ourselves, we can learn to like ourselves. Then when we learn to like ourselves, we don't seek other people or situations to fill the void. And we all know where that can end.

It's working for me!
