pain unconditional-love thinking
I think modern medicine has become like a prophet offering a life free of pain. It is nonsense. The only thing I know that truly heals people is unconditional love.
thinking body accepting
I think that as you evolve spiritually, automatically your body tells you what is acceptable for your body and what is not.
moving grief thinking
Think of a lifeless forest in which a small plant pushes its head upward, out of the ruin. In our grief process, we are moving into life from death, without denying the devastation that came before.

Indeed, I think that people want peace so much that one of these days governments had better get out of the way and let them have it. Dwight Eisenhower People are like stained glass windows. They sparkle and shine when the sun is out, but when darkness sets in, their true beauty is revealed only if there is light from within.

I only believe in what I see and hear with my own eyes and ears.

Any natural, normal human being, when faced with any kind of loss, will go from shock all the way through acceptance.
people
If people would get in touch with their spirits, they would be able to heal, emotionally and physically.

We often assume that if we are good people we will not suffer the ills of the world.
death experience
Death is not painful. It is the most beautiful experience you will have.

The truth does not need to be defended.
love
Love is really the only thing we can possess, keep with us, and take with us.
