that ideas and thoughts are seeds just like the seeds you might plant in a garden. If you were to purchase a package of sunflower seeds you would probably read the back of the package to see how long it would take before the sunflower matures. This is the gestation period for the plant. I believe we all understand this concept. It’s the same for a woman having a baby.
We wouldn’t expect her to announce today she was expecting and then show us her new bundle of joy tomorrow, would we?
I find it interesting that we understand the concept of gestation when it comes to everything else in nature, except when we want a goal or ideal to manifest itself. So many people give up their goals because they didn’t manifest at exactly the time they wanted them to. This is very sad.
We live in an instant gratification society, but that’s not how Universal Law of Gender works.…
IS IT NOT ...
THE FACT THAT EVERY

pushed beyond safe limits only the natural systems of the planet breakdown and not the human systems? The current economic-financial-industrial system pushes the planet’s ecologies beyond humanly favorable thermal balances. But this system has its own limits, beyond which it cannot function. There are multiple such limits, economic, social, political, even cultural, and many of them are close to critical thresholds.
The operational limits of the global financial system may be the most critical.
The global financial system rests on self-created quicksand. When banks lend to other banks or financial institutions, those funds are used as a basis for further lending, and each transaction is larger than the one before. Interest has its own interest, and money breeds money. The greater the amounts and quicker the transactions, the more money is created. The amount of money in the system has grown exponentially. Computers decide in milliseconds the buying and selling of millions and billions of dollars worth of financial instruments. With so much money available, and with the ease and speed of global transactions, trade in derivates and other forms of financial gambling has progressively detached the financial system from economic and social reality.Ervin Laszlo

the knowledge that our best of British might not quite match the better opponent - from Switzerland as it happens last Sunday - we have a British World Champion Cyclist partaking in the Tour de France - having just taken the yellow jersey lead from another once better opponent again from Switzerland - exclaiming that ...
"THIS IS THE GREATEST TIME that he can remember for BRITISH CYCLING
and that he HOPES that people back home are enjoying it !!!???
This IS INDEED the paradox of the curious case of BEING British.
Much of this particular paradox is rooted in the self effacing nature which lies at the core of BEING British - which has manifested itself in our concept of being fair, as well as being competitive and at the same time typically exclaiming "That's NOT cricket" at any transgression that might arise.
In the case of Bradley Wiggins, of course - Gilles Le Roch, Reuters cycling correspondent, has best summed the situation up in his article for the Telegraph, by saying - The sickness of cycling is that some people don’t ever want to “see” or acknowledge the good things that have been achieved - for the British riders and cycling.

manity rests upon individual integrity.” How can an individual be more powerful than any corporation or government entity? Only the individual has total freedom to act on passion and principle. Humans have always unknowingly affected all of Universe by every act and thought. Realistic, comprehensively responsible, unselfish thinking does absolutely impact human destiny. Bucky often expressed this with his trim tab analogy. A trim tab is a tiny flap on the rudder of a boat. Although very small, it is the only thing that changes the direction of even the most massive ocean liner. Know that you are that trim tab, he often said; know that individual integrity is the most powerful energy on earth.

tely stressful! So, today I said to myself, "Just follow links and learn something. That's all you have to do.
You don't have to go back or "go" anywhere. Just ENJOY yourself. It's not as if you will "get lost." So, I did. Hop, hop, hop, hop, hop.... who knows where all I went. Not caring, not thinking that much, just ripping around. And then I realized something. Everywhere I went was a place that you had already been! There's something tremendous in that, you know? I even found places that I had already been and posted comments on and then forgotten all about, and you had been there too, and there's what you said and what I said... and then the metaphor of the quilt came up, and I saw that if I follow your links, it's as if you have sewn the world for me...
