Consciousness moves
at the speed of Light . . .

. . .
KM.net dominates the scene. Fourteen days ago I wrote, "The program looks good. This could explode as the gold rush of the 21st century, or it could be a total scam. I'm trusting the instincts of Jeannette." And then the following Saturday, after the first meeting, I was on cloud nine with the entry that reads, "So this is what it feels like -- a natural high! I can't believe I can be buzzing like this without coffee, or that I can wake up in the morning wide-eyed, reaching for a pen and tablet. Wildfire! This baby is going to blow like a torch to monkey lard!" Emotions ruled the weekend, but by Monday night I believed negative thoughts were creeping into my mind, and reminded myself to keep a sense of Victory. "Isn't this about focus and organization," I asked myself.
. . . Something was happening . . . a battle of polarities within the number 8 year vibrations. When I had studied the numbers in January, Juno Jordan had cautioned: "This year you will feel ambition stirring and a deep desire to better your financial conditions, so it is necessary to be efficient and practical . . . Organization and reorganization are the keynotes to success and advancement. You are likely to feel a great deal of mental strain . . . It is very important that you do not overestimate your ability or the value of anything you are dealing with, especially investments. . . Avoid sentiments and emotion and be businesslike in your undertakings." The negative aspect of the dominant 8 essence was beginning to show itself: overreaction, blind ambition, lack of true humanitarian feelings, etc. But the watchword is Judgment. In the midst of the euphoria I could not abandon my capacity for critical thinking, or maybe the higher mind was taking command in answer to my prayers. Hadn't I asked for the Light to infuse the effort? Boom! Within days I discovered potentially incriminating information about the founder and the built-in failure mechanisms of network marketing plans were more fully understood.
. . . How quickly change can occur! It was as if a spell was broken. It was not my intent to derail anything, but I had to catalyze some type of action to get the answers we needed. Cliff stepped forward once again to demonstrate his superb skills at crisis management. And now we wait. Much of my enthusiasm has evaporated, but now I am prepared to take more measured steps, less in the tow of a current of feelings that clouds good judgment and moral consideration. Now I see clearly how easily I was preparing myself to gamble relationships with family and friends and a lifetime of business contacts. I must not give up on the idea that I can do the proper thing, the right karmic thing, the truly smart thing, and still better my financial condition. I must keep in mind my personal thoughtform for 2000: "Change is the character of every moment; therefore, the walker is fully present in the eternal now, and directs each footstep on a path of his own choosing." I don't know what happens now, but as my beloved mother says, "We shall see."

Two years ago . . .
. . . Dana and I thought that today would be remembered as the 20th anniversary of our first date. Instead, I'll remember it as the day I buried Ouinki. I still can't fully grasp that my sweet little pup is forever gone, having died from a ruptured uterus. The waves of grief are beginning to subside, but the sense of loss is devastating. Too sudden.

Ten years ago . . .
. . . I am totally and absolutely enamored with the library across the street from the Town House. This place is so wonderful -- not like the institutional, cement block warehouses I've been used to -- this is a real library! The people who created this understood that the library was a solemn, stately room in the home devoted to a love of books and the nourishment of illumination's flame. I've spent the better part of the last couple days over there and I've completely lost the loneliness I had for a sense of solitude. The opportunity to be alone at the Town House and spend time at this library is in harmony with my current inner requirements, now that I'm experiencing my introspective number 7 year.

Twenty-one years ago . . .
. . . Well, the road to purity is not so easy after all. I don't know what caused it, but I went on a bit of a binge. It wasn't all that satisfying, though. After the first buzz, a lack of clarity, fatigue, loss of motivation. I was glad to be straight again. Straight seems normal and better to me now. I guess this is just part of it all. I "admitted defeat" as Jaybo put it. Nevertheless, I'm finding a new way: The Science of the Spoken Word. I will continue to explore this whole new world. It is so fascinating, so comprehensive . . .
