April Fools
 
Sorry...my Inner Fool is too busy laughing her Fool head off because it's April and she's giddy.
Happy, Happy April Everyone!

Here is Spring in My World...I'm eye to eye with an apple tree on the patio ;-)
It's such a pleasure to admire it in the Spring and Fall...the Most Dramatic times!

Ernest Holmes for April 1st

Posted on Apr 1st, 2008 by Resurrected1 : Ariela the Quantum Leaper Resurrected1


APRIL 1st - "RENEWAL "
~Ernest Holmes

I come that they might have Life. ~John 10:10


Let us turn toward the Sun of Eternal Life, the Spiritual Sun that cannot set and Forever Rises on the Horizon of our Own Experience. Definitely and deliberately, we let go of every lost hope, every fear of want, every sense of lack, every hurt, because Today we leave the Tomb of Doubt and enter the Sanctuary of Certainty. We roll away the stone of uncertainty from our consciousness; we find the Resurrected, the Divine, and God-intended Perfection and Wholeness. We let go of every belief that we are lost or forlorn, because we know that the doorway from the tomb leads us away from all morbid thought. We are standing Forevermore in the Glory of an Everlasting Protection of the One Presence.

We let go of all disease and disharmony. They slip back into the tomb of oblivion, for the Spiritual Body now Rises Triumphant in every cell; we are instantly renewed by the Creative Principle of Eternal Life that is Within Us. We are Alive and Aware, and we know that the kingdom of God is Here and is Within Us This Moment.

Thou art the Center and Circumference of my Life, the Beginningless and Endless part of me, the Eternal Reality of me, the Everlasting Power Within me. Thou art my Whole Being.

How do you decide that something is true?

Posted on Apr 3rd, 2008 by Resurrected1 : Ariela the Quantum Leaper Resurrected1
This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for April 03, 2008:

Y'know, that's the problem with people...they try to Decide if something is true.
In the case of The Truth, making a Decision is more like offering your Opinion.

For Me, I FEEL Truth. I can FEEL if something is ringing true....for that's what it feels like...a ring and a resonance...a puzzle piece that easily slips into its perfect place. No questions or doubts arise. That is Truth.

The Truth Just Feeeeeeeeeels Right.

ooooOooh...Stonehenge Excavation Begins!

Posted on Apr 3rd, 2008 by Resurrected1 : Ariela the Quantum Leaper Resurrected1
 Shocked 
BBC News Story
Stonehenge being excavated!

Stonehenge (BBC)

Wow, I'm having such mixed feelings about it...Excitement about what might be found...and feeling as if it's being desecrated, tainted and violated.

Funny though, a few months back I was wondering about what could be beneath the spot that Stonehenge is on Rolling Eyes ...Hopefully, they won't hoard the information and   discoveries.

Personally, I'm hoping they dig and the hole caves in to a vortex...a wormhole...another dimension...our Alternate Earth...yeahhhSmile...or maybe the Earth IS hollow...maybe it's the entrance to Telos...hell, it could be sealing the gates to hell, and they're going to open it up...
 Embarrassed

If you could give one gift to our elders, what would it be?

Posted on Apr 7th, 2008 by Resurrected1 : Ariela the Quantum Leaper Resurrected1
This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for April 07, 2008:

Same thing I've been giving them since childhood, when my friends and I would volunteer at nursing homes and put on shows to entertain them....

I give them my Time, Honor, Respect, Love, Listening Ears and Compassion.

When do you feel most accomplished?

Posted on Apr 8th, 2008 by Resurrected1 : Ariela the Quantum Leaper Resurrected1
This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for April 08, 2008:

  Mopping 
After cleaning the house...Inhaling the cleanliness that is next to Godliness...feeling like my house has just been Feng-Shui-ed.

Now THAT'S a Gooood Feeling of accomplishment!

...And those 2 minutes of a clean house is like Nirvana...then the kids strike again. LOL.
(my 5 yr. old son decided yesterday that the walls were so nice and white in his room that he drew pictures all over it with crayons.)
No
Shriekkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk!!!! I still haven't gotten it out...

I Am Alive =)

Posted on Apr 11th, 2008 by Resurrected1 : Ariela the Quantum Leaper Resurrected1
 
Love You (Nickelback - If everyone cared)


From underneath the trees, we watch the sky
Confusing stars for satellites
I never dreamed that you'd be mine
But here we are, we're here tonight

Singing Amen, I'm alive
Singing Amen, I'm alive

[CHORUS]
If everyone cared and nobody cried
If everyone loved and nobody lied
If everyone shared and swallowed their pride
We'd see the day when nobody died

And I'm singing

Amen I, I'm alive
Amen I, I'm alive

And in the air the fireflies
Our only light in paradise
We'll show the world they were wrong
And teach them all to sing along

Singing Amen I'm alive
Singing Amen I'm alive

[CHORUS (X2)]

And as we lie beneath the stars
We realize how small we are
If they could love like you and me
Imagine what the world could be

If everyone cared and nobody cried
If everyone loved and nobody lied
If everyone shared and swallowed their pride
We'd see the day when nobody died

We'd see the day, we'd see the day
When nobody died
  We'd see the day, we'd see the day
When nobody died
We'd see the day when nobody died.
Party!

disturbed - i'm alive

 
Never again will I be dishonored
And never again will I be reminded
Of living within the world of the jaded
They kill inspiration
It's my obligation
To never again, allow this to happen
Where do I begin?
The choices are endless
Denying the sin
My art, my redemption
I carry the torch of my fathers before me

The thing I treasure most in life cannot be taken away
There will never be a reason why I will surrender to your advice
To change myself, I'd rather die
Though they will not understand
I won't make the greatest sacrifice
You can't predict where the outcome lies
You'll never take me alive
I'm alive
I'm alive
I'm alive

Change again, cannot be considered
I rage again, dispelling my anger
Where do I begin?
The choices are endless
My art, my redemption, my only salvation
I carry the gift that I have been blessed with
My soul is adrift in oceans of madness
Repairing the rift that you have created
I am not alone, brothers, give me your arms now

The thing I treasure most in life cannot be taken away
There will never be a reason why I will surrender to your advice
To change myself, I'd rather die
Though they will not understand
I won't make the greatest sacrifice
You can't predict where the outcome lies
You'll never take me alive

I'm no slave
Are you feeling brave?
Or have you gone out of your mind?
No more games
It won't feel the same
If I hold my anger inside
There's no meaning
My soul is bleeding
I've had enough of your kind
One suggestion, use your discretion
Before you label me blind

The thing I treasure most in life cannot be taken away
There will never be a reason why I will surrender to your advice
  To change myself, I'd rather die
Though they will not understand
I won't make the greatest sacrifice
You can't predict where the outcome lies
You'll never take me alive
I'm alive
I'm alive
I'm alive
I'm alive
I'm alive
I'm alive
I'm alive
I'm alive

The Greatest Love of All- Gaia Love Fest!

Posted on Apr 12th, 2008 by Resurrected1 : Ariela the Quantum Leaper Resurrected1
Whitney Houston - The Greatest Love Of All

I believe the children are our future
Teach them well and let them lead the way
Show them all the beauty they posses inside
Give them a sense of pride to make it easier
Let the children's laughter remind us how we used to be

Everybody's searching for a hero
People need someone to look up to
I never found anyone who fulfilled my needs
A lonely place to be and so I learned to depend on me

I decided long ago never to walk in anyone's shadows
If I failed, if I succeed, at least I lived as I believed.
No matter what they take from me they can't take away my dignity

Because the greatest love of all is happening to me
I found the greatest love of all inside of me

The greatest love of all is easy to achieve
Learning to love yourself, it is the greatest love of all

I believe the children are our future
Teach them well and let them lead the way
  Show them all the beauty they posses inside
Give them a sense of pride to make it easier
Let the children's laughter remind us how we used to be

I decided long ago never to walk in anyone's shadows
If I failed, if I succeed, at least I lived as I believed.
No matter what they take from me, they can't take away my dignity

Because the greatest love of all is happening to me
I found the greatest love of all inside of me

The greatest love of all is easy to achieve...
 Learning to love yourself, it is the greatest love of all

And if by chance that special place that you've been dreaming of
Leads you to a lonely place find your strength in love
Kisses

What is the best way to show someone you love them?

Posted on Apr 13th, 2008 by Resurrected1 : Ariela the Quantum Leaper Resurrected1
This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for April 13, 2008:

 
Blowing Kisses
  
Do Something.
Anything.
But do it with Meaning, with Intention, with the emotion of Love vibrating through the Gift and the Act of Giving. Charge it with your full attention and Mind-Heart Connection.
Beating
Whether it is giving a flower...real or virtual; for a puja or to your beloved or to the feet of your favorite idol, lol...
    Flower 
What is That Moment of Love to You? What does it Mean for You?

Taking the TIME to do Anything would be my answer...whether it was that simple, single Rose you went on adventure in order to swipe it from someone's garden or public planting...
  
 Bouquet 
or a dozen you spent 2 seconds to buy at a store or from someone in the streets. Maybe even swiped them from the cemetery for all I know, LOL. 
  
Does 1000 roses mean more? Did they take a simple phone call?
Surprise
So how deeply do we use that time we're spending? How much awareness are we putting into our Expression? MmmHmmm...we create Love with everything we do.
(except harm people. Duh.Rolling Eyes)

I Love You MugFlowers & VaseI Love You Mug
Lovely Time spent with you here at Gaiaadz,
sharing This Moment...This is My Love Expressed...
...enjoy your coffee, Thank You for visiting.

What are you seeking to become?

Posted on Apr 14th, 2008 by Resurrected1 : Ariela the Quantum Leaper Resurrected1
This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for April 14, 2008:

 I Dunno 
Hmmm....
I just want to be more and more of Who I Truly Am. (yes, I say that alot, LOL)...
Peeling off the layers till I get to the center of the tootsie roll pop...LMAO :-D

Does the ugly duckling know it's going to transform into a beautiful swan?
Does the seed know what beautiful flower it's going to become and want to skip that whole wonderful process of stretching and growing? I'm sure the Moment of bursting through the soil and into the Light is just as fabulous as the Moment of Bloom.

Why can't we enjoy the Journey tooooooooooooo the Destination? The Road Trip and getting lost can be funnnnnnnn! :-D Sometimes, it's more so! LOL.

I couldn't tell you what I'm going to look like, when and if I ever grow up, hehehehe...
So, I'll just stop all that SEEKING, and just BE. =)

Nat.Geo.- Human Footprint

Posted on Apr 14th, 2008 by Resurrected1 : Ariela the Quantum Leaper Resurrected1
 Thumbs Up Did anyone catch it last night? WOW!!! Thumbs Up 

  Quoted from National Geographic - Human Footprint

"Imagine 13,056 pints of milk stretching down a suburban street, a 50-foot (15-meter) wall of appliances, and a river of 28,433 rubber ducks representing showers, each group showing   one person's lifetime usage. These are just some of the staggering images from the National Geographic Channel show, "Human Footprint", which documents the cradle-to-grave consumption of an average American boy and girl. This companion exhibition explores the global impact of consumption."

(Edited to add the link to the documentary! WooHoo! I found it!!!! Here You Go...Enjoy!)

Human Footprint


I just happened to be flipping channels before turning the tv off to go to bed...and WOW! The visuals were just stunning, artistic, and scary to see how much we consume...how much we use and waste without thinking...how we've got all this throwaway stuff that just piles up and up and up. I almost threw up.Sick
I re-vowed to lessen my own personal Usage and decrease my own footprint.

Everyone ought to see this! Kids too!...shows our usage throughout our Lifetimes!. Open Mouth

Your Garbage doesn't just disappear, peoples of Earth...
Gotta be more conscious of the whole process of what You Want...
And what it takes to get it.
And what happens to it after you're finished "using" it. Rolling Eyes

What is your relationship to conflict?

Posted on Apr 15th, 2008 by Resurrected1 : Ariela the Quantum Leaper Resurrected1
This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for April 15, 2008:

My relationship to conflict? PeaceMaker, I suppose.
Ewww...don't like that stuff, but it exists and I won't deny that.
I come in and try to get both sides to compromise and cooperate, so that there'd be a win-win situation and no more conflict. (it works on the small scale, just wish I could do it on a larger scale.)

I notice that some conflicts go on for years...centuries even...because the particular players don't want to meet each other half way. (It's one of the dumbest phenomenons on the planet, LOL)...instead of being happy with a little bit of what they want, they want ALL of what they want.

Selfish little boogers.

Oh Heaven's No...I care about most everything and everyone. I've got a Huge Heart ;-)

Let me see if I can think of something....ummm....uhhh....Okay, I got one....
I'm indifferent to the stock market. Only because of ignorance and lack of interest. =)

We don't know each other well enough to have a relationship....
Besides...I hardly ever fuck up. LOL.
ROTFL

I'm just kidding about that, of course...How do you think I learned so much? Lifetimes worth of mistakes, screwing up and Learning to Grow...and Growing to Learn.

Who have you underestimated?

Posted on Apr 19th, 2008 by Resurrected1 : Ariela the Quantum Leaper Resurrected1
This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for April 19, 2008:

Who have I underestimated and who has surprised me exceedingly beyond expectations?
MYSELF!Smile

I remind myself (LOL) of the movie Bourne Identity...Matt Damon had all these skills that would crop up and surprise him and give a hint of his True Nature, his True Self.

Last night my partner tossed the remote control for the tv over to me (I didn't ask for it, he was just handing over "my 3rd hand" as I call it, LOL)..did this without warning and I was actually online and not expecting it...BUT...I watched my own hand fly out and catch it without missing a beat. Whoa. Surprise. He stood there with eyes wide and mouth open and said, "Um, I was just testing your reflexes." Yah. Ok. How you like me now? CoolROTFLMAO.  
(He's a BlackBelt, 9th Dan, so to surprise him like that is a compliment, hehehe)

Another time, I was playing pool with friends (and I play pool with people who overdo their "break" and shots, putting more ooooomph into it than necessary, lol)...well, apparently the pool hall is filled with those types of people...and so....there I was, taking my shot at the 8 ball while my opponents balls were all still on the table (LMAO, Damn, I love when that happens!)
and I heard a "Look Out!!!!",  Shocked but I didn't even look up from the table, and once again, watched as my hand flew up and caught a speeding flying ball that was coming at least at a million mph aimed at my head. The pool hall fell silent. In one quick, deft move I'd caught the ball -BLINDLY- and lobbed it back to the goofball who sent it flying. (who came over and profusely apologized and said he was in awe of what I'd done)
Yeah, they didn't call me "Slim Shady" at the poolhall for nothing, ya know.  Tongue Out
