The timeless in you is aware of life's timelessness; and knows that yesterday is but today's memory and tomorrow is today's dream.

Once again, my favourite finds of the week:
A beautiful woman ponders the deeper meaning of beauty in her article Beauty is Fleeting . It's a wonderful article devoid of the usual clichés.
Steve Pavlina suggest to "prove to the universe that you're willing to receive the small package with love and gratitude, and bigger opportunities will soon follow" in his article How to Earn Your First Love Dollar. It's an intriguing idea and I'm going to try it.
Many seekers on the road to higher consciousness will pass through the Dark Night of the Soul. This is a good indepth description of what to expect.

I was fed up of making jewellery this week and decided to paint some shot glasses again. I love painting glass and ceramic; working with these bright colours always cheers me up. And the weather has been dull and miserable, so I really needed the shot of colour.

What Your Taste in Music Says About You |
Your musical tastes are reflective and complex. You are intellectual to the point of being cerebral. You are very open to new experiences, and even more open to new ideas and theories. Wisdom and personal accomplishment are important to you. You are naturally sophisticated. You are drawn to art, especially art by independent artists. You are likely to be financially well off... and not because you were born that way. |

Trusting the Universe to Provide a Roof over My Head
Tuesday, July 15, 2008 | creative visualization, personal growth, spirituality | 11 comments »
I’ve moved house five times in the last two years.
My kids and I are about to embark on the sixth move.
The first time, I had to make up my mind and switch countries from Switzerland to Seychelles within three weeks. I stayed at a friend’s home for a month and then moved to my own place. This was a horrible dingy little house in the middle of the bush. After 4 months, I was given a month’s notice by my landlady and found a bedsit to share with my two teenage children just two days before I had to move. The place was small, but nonetheless a step up from the previous shack. (We had luxuries such as hot water and proper tiles.) The story repeated itself, but this time I had just one day to move out. The house was larger, but started falling apart on us due to termites attacking the wood. This enabled rats to get in and we had to move out before we all died of leptospirosis...
I’ve been in this house for 10 months now, which is a pretty long time considering the track record of the last couple of years. The house is once again an improvement on the previous accommodation; we have three bedrooms, two bathrooms and unlimited hot water. Not to forget a fantastic view. My landlord now wants to tear the house down to build luxury condominiums and is going to start work on the site by the end of this month. So, once again I’m on the move.
To make matters worse, it’s becoming nearly impossible to find any kind of rental. The prices have shot up in these last few years and there is a huge shortage of accommodation even in the higher priced category.
So what do I do facing these impossible circumstances? I ask the Universe for the absolutely impossible: a house on the beach.
I’ve been yearning for a house on the beach before I even got here. Upon arrival I “realized” that there are only a handful of beach houses for rent and their prices are exorbitant, so I gave up on the idea, thinking it was impossible. Of course, with this attitude, my first home was miles away from the beach. Looking back over the last two years, each move has been an improvement and I’m getting closer to the beach as well. It no longer feels impossible.
These last couple of years have truly been an exercise in trust. I had quite a few dark nights of the soul where I lost faith and had to find a point where I regained trust despite the seemingly hopeless outlook of the situation. Each time I managed to dredge hope from the depths of my soul, the tide turned and a roof over my head was provided by the Universe.
Last month an online friend sent me a lovely link where one can wish upon a star. Without stopping to think, I spontaneously wished for a beach house. On a few blogs I visit, I stated my dream of living in a beach house and writing a novel. I’ve looked at my vision board on my desktop, built myself a beach house on Sims2 and starting visualizing.
Meanwhile, in the “real world”, I’ve placed an ad seeking accommodation, looked at a couple of places (not on the beach), but they haven’t worked out. I’ve got two weeks to go until I have to move out and I’m working on not feeling the fear and trusting that I will have a roof over my head.
I live in hope and surrender…

I've been too busy with house guests this week to write any articles, but I did manage to find some time to browse around the web. These are my favourite finds of the week:
5 Signs You've Married Your Problems and How to Divorce Them is a great article on how to get rid of our bad habits and create new and healthy ones in their places.
A Brief Guide to World Domination is a must read down-loadable e-book if you want to step out of mediocrity and to live an outstanding life.
Is Finding Your Life Purpose Preventing You From Obtaining It? is about healing ourselves by finding our joy and then sharing that joy to inspire others.
That's it for this week. I hope I'll find more time in the next few days for surfing...
