She told him she was not available to show it, but she tells him that he should come over to the Island and have a look for himself. She gives him directions. He </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">takes the day off and goes to the Island to view it for himself and likes it.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">He calls her again and wants to arrange another viewing with her but as before she says she's too busy to show it but urges him to come over to the Island again and stay the weekend, camp and enjoy the property for himself. He does and likes it.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">This should have been a Red Flag that something was amiss about the property.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">If you hired Pemberton Holmes, using Nancy Vieira as the realtor to sell your property, wouldn't you want her to take the time to show the property to potential buyers.

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-_3CERbYPd20/W4pmC0asKNI/AAAAAAABBng/z8kChlArgmQJukwAL5YoS5zzFohLJnyXwCLcBGAs/s1600/Untitled.006.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="768" data-original-width="1024" height="480" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-_3CERbYPd20/W4pmC0asKNI/AAAAAAABBng/z8kChlArgmQJukwAL5YoS5zzFohLJnyXwCLcBGAs/s640/Untitled.006.jpeg" width="640" /></a></div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">Anything you can do, they can do better, that's a Virgo, and the philosophy behind a September baby born Aug 23 to Sept 22. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">Nothing is good enough, they're perfectionists, obsessed. Simple is best, down the straight and narrow and no one, not anyone can live up to their expectations. They're minimum standard is set much too high for the average bloke. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana", sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><i>read more...</i></span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"></span><br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">You can actually eat off their floors they're that clean. They put the Anal in analytical behaviour and live behind the five second rule. They're minds are so analytic that everything has to be streamlined and systematic.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">They'll bend over backwards for you, being the nit-pickers and people pleasers that they are. A little critical, self-centred and judgemental at times even uptight but are just looking out for your best interests. They are detail people. Good car washers. They don't leave a fingerprint behind or it drives them up a wall.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">Virgo's are far from lazy, you'll never see one taking a nap or resting by the wayside. Nope. They'll talk and talk, never letting you get a word in edgewise. Their symbol is purity and innocence but like I said, it's only a symbol.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">Earth signs they can be a little self destructive, they do get overwhelmed with the most minute of problems.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">They'll love you to death and probably charm the pants off you if they haven't already, eh? </span><br />

<a href="https://dogbrindlebarks.blogspot.com/2018/08/premonitions-they-happen-any-time-any.html#.W3WEpGUUX-0"><img border="0" data-original-height="768" data-original-width="1024" height="480" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-f9iK_LVjEqA/W3WCp9iOOHI/AAAAAAABBd0/zb9mFNNOcZEmHoCh9kPrx9y8kbMOafh2QCLcBGAs/s640/Untitled%2B2.009.jpeg" width="640" /></a></div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">You don't have to go looking for them. Sometimes fateful forebodings come to those who aren't even looking.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">Throughout history there have been recordings of people who, as if hit by lightning, get an uneasy feeling, a vivid lucid dream, even while awake, a premonition of something bad that is about to happen in the near or distant future.</span><br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">In most cases we are powerless to prevent the outcome, either we don't take them seriously or we don't know exactly what the premonition is for. This is the hardest to get right because in the psychic world things happen fast, sometimes moments before the event happens. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">Here is an example: In 1979, <a href="http://www.zetatalk.com/index/booth.htm" target="_blank">David Booth</a> had a premonition, he could have averted one of the worst air accidents in American History. In 1979, he dreamed for ten nights in a row of an American Airlines jet, rolling and crashing. The premonition was so strong he called the Federal Aviation Administration and told them what he saw. They believed him but David couldn't provide enough clues to where this crash was supposed to happen. Four days later an <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Airlines_Flight_191" target="_blank">American Airlines DC-10</a> Flight 191, shortly after take-off at Chicago's O'Hare Airport, rolled over in the air and came crashing back down to earth, killing all 275 people on board.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/mGN1F2AtB1M?rel=0" width="560"></iframe><br /></div>
<br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">Here is another example of twenty-four people, all having the same premonition at the same time. In October of 1966 a huge mountain of coal waste tumbled down onto the town of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aberfan_disaster" target="_blank">Aberfan, Wales</a> burying 144 people, mostly school kids. Only a few of the people lived near the town, or knew the circumstances with the coal pile. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">One of the kids, drew a picture earlier that day of the event that was about to happen, complete with a clock on the classroom wall, showing at what time the event occurred. The night before the disaster a woman in a near-by town had a premonition, she saw the disaster unfold before her eyes and even saw the rescue operation when one of the rescue workers saved a little boy. She recognized the saviour and the boy on the news the next day.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/J-r0IwwtV74?rel=0" width="560"></iframe><br /></div>
<br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">Then there's the famous story of the sinking of the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RMS_Titanic" target="_blank">Titanic</a>, on April 14, 1912. We all know that story line but did you know there was a man on board, by the name of William Stead. He had been warned by two different psychics not to travel on water. He didn't listen, even writing one of them that he would see them when he got back, but he never returned. The funny thing about this premonition was he wrote a short story twenty years earlier about a similar unsinkable ship that sunk after hitting an ice-berg.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/mC8thmKupmQ?rel=0" width="420"></iframe><br /></div>
<br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">Fourteen years before the Titanic sank, another novel was written called, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Futility,_or_the_Wreck_of_the_Titan" target="_blank">Futility</a>, by a former sailor named <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Morgan_Robertson" target="_blank">Morgan Robertson</a>. It too, was classed as unsinkable, but it hits an ice-berg and goes down in icy waters one cold night in April. This fictional ship was almost identical to the Titanic in size, weight and speed at the time of the collision. He named the boat in his novel, the Titan.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">Other passengers like <a href="http://www.money.si/jp-morgan-titanic.php" target="_blank">J.P. Morgan</a> the millionaire banker listened to his inner voice and decided to cancel his trip. A sailor commissioned to the Titanic refused to sail with the crew. They were the lucky ones.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">There is one person who didn't listen to his inner voice and that was <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_Twain" target="_blank">Mark Twain</a>. When he was young he apprenticed on the steamship Pennsylvania, they plied the waters of the Mississippi. He even got his younger brother Henry, a job on the boat. One night Twain had a lucid dream. In it he saw a metal casket with Henry in it, white flowers with a single red bloom adorning the centre. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">On voyage downstream he had a rile with the captain and disembarked, his brother stayed on board. Just outside Memphis the boat blew up killing 150 people including Twain's brother Henry. At the funeral, there it was, the metal casket with his brother in it and the bouquet of flowers with one red rose. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">Twain didn't predict his own death but did foresee it in a way, as he told a friend one night in 1909, over sherry, "I came in with Halley's Comet in 1835 and expect to go out with it." Then the next year, in 1910 Halley's Comet did arrive and Twain died. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">There are thousands of cases of people receiving premonitions about future events, some listen, some don't. One thing, you don't have to go looking for them, they come to you, eh?</span><br />

<br />
There are many reasons why my beard looks so gray.<br />
<br />
First of all, colour depends on physics and on the person perceiving it, because everyone's eyes and brains have their own characteristics to gather and collate information. Everyone's on a different wave length, colour or otherwise, if you get my drift?<br />

<a href="https://dogbrindlebarks.blogspot.com/2018/08/holodomor-death-by-hunger-one-of-worlds.html#.W22a5WUUX-0"><img border="0" data-original-height="768" data-original-width="1024" height="480" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-1NLgiBRLunw/W22ZfCVXOUI/AAAAAAABBa0/0QQSO1gmWlMcu3tX7pqET52N4jdId5oLACLcBGAs/s640/Untitled%2B3.007.jpeg" width="640" /></a></div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">It is believed that the Holodomor was a planned, man-made famine by Joseph Stalin to eliminate the Ukrainian Independence Movement...</span><br />
<a name='more'></a><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">killing an estimated 12 million people, and is often compared to the Jewish Holocaust of the Second World War. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">The word 'Holodomor' translated into English means, murder by hunger, starvation and exhaustion. Holod meaning hunger and Mor meaning plague.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">Even using the words; Holodomor, hunger and famine in a sentence were forbidden.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">There was knowledge of a Soviet famine on the horizon as far back as 1930 but there was no preventive action taken. Stalin rejected any outside aid. He confiscated all household food and limited any population movement, defining Holodomor as genocide.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">Cannibalism during the Holodomor was well documented.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">A woman doctor wrote in June 1933 that she had not yet become a cannibal, but was "not sure that she shall not be one by the time her letter reached her friend. The good people died first, she wrote. Those who refused to steal or to prostitute themselves died. Those who gave food to others died. Those who refused to eat corpses died. Those who refused to kill their fellow man died. Parents who resisted cannibalism died before their children. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">The Soviet regime printed posters declaring, "To eat your own children is a barbarian act. More than 2500 people were convicted and sentenced to death for cannibalism.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">The Soviets long denied that any such famine had ever occurred, and that it all was just propaganda.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">Tell that to the 12 million that died, eh?</span><br />

<a href="https://dogbrindlebarks.blogspot.com/2018/08/theres-more-people-coming-than-going.html#.W2hYE2UUX-0"><img border="0" data-original-height="768" data-original-width="1024" height="480" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-krImfOme7is/W2fJVAsu5pI/AAAAAAABBU8/nKC_2Ed126ocJUpMey0h_vG3u2uFa0amACLcBGAs/s640/Untitled%2B2.007.jpeg" width="640" /></a></div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">This is what the population of the world looked like back in 2011.</span><br />
<a name='more'></a><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">For every thousand people here on Earth, there were 19 human births while only 8 of us passed away. That would mean there were 131.4 million babies born in 2011 with only 55.3 million people who died, a difference and an increase of 76.1 million people, in one year.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">Breaking it down further; 360,000 babies are born everyday, while only 151,600 people had died everyday.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">Further, breaking it down that's; 15,000 births every hour, with only 6316 deaths.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">Further still, that's; 250 births and 105 deaths per minute.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">For every second of the day there are 4 births and almost 2 deaths. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">It's obvious, you'd have to be a bird brain not to realize that the population is growing and fast, that's a 1/2 billion people since the census was taken back in 2011. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">So, wouldn't you agree, there's more people coming than going, eh? </span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">This is my own experience with something that I thought may have been a portal into another spirit world. I'm not saying it is...</span></div>
<a name='more'></a><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">As you may know or not, or even care, I once owned a small antique shop in Vancouver. During the summer I would close shop for a month and take off collecting stuff, antiques and collectibles from all over Canada and USA, sleeping in the van (an old beautiful Chevy Diesel Van) and drove from town to town until I finally made it back. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">I backed into my parking space at the rear of the shop and unloaded, taking all my precious new belongings into the store. After finishing I locked up shop then retired to my apartment upstairs to drool over my new collections. At the time I was very materialistic. I loved things especially old things. This was back in the 90's I'm not like that anymore.</span></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">Later that evening, I remembered leaving something behind the passenger seat. I can't remember what it was that I forgot. It isn't important. Anyway, I went back down the stairs to the van to get it. As I approached the van, I suddenly had an uneasy feeling. I can't explain it. The hair on the nape of my neck stood up on end. I think they call it the 'Willies'. The Van looked different, the colour darker. Maybe because of it sitting in the dark, with no lights on in the parking lot up against the back door. The windshield and side windows were all fogged up on the inside, so fogged up the drips of water were sliding down the inside glass.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">There was something in the air, a feeling of dread, even as I grabbed the door handle and stuck in the key, I had this sudden urge not to open it, but I did.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">As soon as I turned the key and the little knobby popped up, the door seemed to push itself open, pushing me back a little, then I felt it, a rush of heat.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">I instantly thought someone was inside, in the back. Quickly looking, I saw nothing but inside, it felt like a 150 degrees and this is hard to explain. It felt evil.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">Whatever it was, I slammed the door and ran back upstairs. I would check it the next day.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">The next day. Nothing. The van was sitting there as beautiful as ever. True story.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">What were you expecting, eh, a body or something? It was just an odd experience that's why I'm thinking a portal into another dimension. Something evil.</span><br />

<a href="https://dogbrindlebarks.blogspot.com/2018/08/august-is-for-leos-narcissistic-control.html#.W2HCOlVKh0w"><img border="0" data-original-height="613" data-original-width="1024" height="382" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-G7QDWgrqX0U/W18LWO8mS-I/AAAAAAABBSA/ikn--3Q5RBcpQt-oZIkRbYYuW_70-GohgCLcBGAs/s640/Untitled%2B3.006.jpeg" width="640" /></a></div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">Busy, busy that's us.</span><br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">My horoscope tells me, it is my time to shine. I'm a Leo, born in August, a lion. My ruler the sun. I'm hot as fire. Fire being my earth sign. There's no reason for a Leo to be alone. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">I'm creative, passionate, generous, warm-hearted, cheerful and humorous then again I'm also an arrogant, stubborn, self-centred, inflexible and a lazy, son-of-a-bitch. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">That about sums me up. Sounds like I'm filling out a questionnaire for Harmony dot com, doesn't it?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">In reality though I hate being ignored. I'm such a drama queen. I hate facing difficult situations but most of all, I hate not being treated like the King I am. I've been called stuck-up before, many times! Damn them, what do they know anyway, eh?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">It's my way baby, or take the highway, that's how we Leo's feel. We love to dominate and dominate we will. It's as if we can't let go or give in. Criticize me and look out. I'll come out fighting. We care what other people think of us but only if it's good. To me, if you have nothing good to say (about me), keep your mouth shut. I find that hard, keeping my mouth shut.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">We can charm the pants off anyone, male or female. Enough said, in that department. Trust what I am saying, or any other Leo for that matter. We're very loyal, warmhearted and very dependable. Did I mention passionate and sexy?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">Us Leo's, we try. We really do. We need a partner just like us, self aware, reasonable and on the same intellectual wave length, if you catch my drift.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">Leo's, can't live with them. Can't live without them. They're a fine lot.</span><br />

<a href="https://dogbrindlebarks.blogspot.com/2018/07/fire-is-fun-here-is-your-birthday-cake.html#.W13hVmUUX-0"><img border="0" data-original-height="768" data-original-width="1024" height="480" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-nGhTu2Wof7k/W13de2VjmTI/AAAAAAABBPU/RCkemL8pr8EStC9tZuB5WOG9zLjRa6TPQCLcBGAs/s640/Untitled%2B3.005.jpeg" width="640" /></a></div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">I know this is not really the time to be making fire jokes with all the forest fires happening but who the hell was it? </span></span><br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">Was it an arsonist that came up with the idea of putting candles on a birthday cake? </span><span style="font-size: x-large;">One for each year. Who?</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span></span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">No wonder there are so many fire-bugs and fire-starters out there. We start conditioning kids at a very early age. Once every year almost every kid, around the world (there are exceptions) are being subjected to this ancient pagan ritual. What does it mean?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">If the birthday boy/girl blows them out all at once in a single breath he'll/she'll have good luck.</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;"> </span></span></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">I always made a wish before blowing them out, which the wish should come true if, I didn't tell anyone what the wish was, and it has to happen within the next year. Try holding that secret for a year. I never could. Maybe that's why they never ever did come true.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">In my case my next birthday cake could turn into a mini-disaster, if I have one. There won't be enough room for another candle stick.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br />

<a href="https://dogbrindlebarks.blogspot.com/2018/07/orasyon-all-religions-are-beautiful.html#.W1stE2UUX-0"><img border="0" data-original-height="768" data-original-width="1024" height="480" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-mnWeJg6KOcQ/W1ssMpx0jhI/AAAAAAABBMY/NcXsE_w9k5oAGVezCi40mD3an7tnxuqjgCLcBGAs/s640/Untitled%2B3.004.jpeg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span></div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">Orasyon is an old and popular belief in Asian countries, a system of magical powers, a mantra, a whispered prayer.</span><br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">It is a state of consciousness and works miracles when your mind and body are pure. </span><br />
<div>
<br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">People who posses this power claim to be able to turn themselves into super humans. We have all heard stories of people that eat razor blades without cutting themselves, drinking battery acid and only burping and sleeping on a bed of nails without a scratch even with a pile of bricks laid on his stomach.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">Some believe there are a few people who can turn a plain rock into a sparkling diamond just by squeezing it. And then there are some that can heal sicknesses. People run hundreds of miles day becoming invincible and able to perform incredible feats in emergencies, like lifting a heavy car to save a life.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">There's an old saying that all religions are all beautiful flowers in one big over abundant garden.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">Orasyon sounds confusing eh? But Orasyon is the true essence of universal enlightenment and understanding and is a spiritual practice with deep Christian connections. It broadens our understanding of every other religious and spiritual discipline.</span><br />

<a href="https://dogbrindlebarks.blogspot.com/2018/07/the-principles-of-human-conduct-law-of.html#.W1nMBWUUX-0"><img border="0" data-original-height="673" data-original-width="1024" height="420" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-yBwoE9lP_IU/W1nK7TYO9PI/AAAAAAABBK4/ZyvvTwTz8wkeCUgbvEclXjCp2jHMM9jewCLcBGAs/s640/Untitled%2B3.003.jpeg" width="640" /></a></div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">It is necessary to follow certain principles of conduct in our daily lives, to know how to limit ourselves and develop some sort of self-discipline. </span><br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">We might be tempted to over-extend ourselves, over-doing it or under doing it causing us to lose track of our direction. This constant imbalance is very common in our daily living, there will always be a tomorrow or it's too late, do it all now or never.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">There is an old adage; Whatever you do to others will come back to you, ten fold, maybe revealing itself later than sooner and in some other place. This is called the Law of KARMA, action and reaction, whatever you plant, so shall you reap.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><b>The Principle</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><b>Ahim'sa</b> Non-hurting - either by thoughts, words or actions. Losing your temper becomes a burden. The best of warriors is the one who wins battles without waging war.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><b>Satya</b> - Truthfulness. People who are truthful carry weight in their words and actions. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><b>Brahmacarya</b> - Positive Awareness. We must protect ourselves from negativity. A healthy and positive attitude always uplifts our spirit.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><b>Asteya</b> - Do not steal. Your conscience will always follow you.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><b>Aparigraha</b> - There's no need to accumulate. All you need is what will help you grow.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><b>Shaoca</b> - Maintain a clean mind, body and surroundings. Do away with clutter and unnecessary thoughts and ideas.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><b>Santos'a</b> - Contentment. Set high goals but keep it simple and self satisfying. Appreciate more.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><b>Tapah</b> - Service. Help others without expecting in return but be careful not to overdo the 'good deeds',</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><b>Svadhyaya</b> - Keep an open mind to all things. It gives you room to grow.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><b>Ishvara</b> - A clear direction towards goodness. Understand the Universal Force that guides us and gives us inspiration. It helps keep us centred and confident.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">These teachings are based upon Shrii Shrii Ananda Murthi's work. I've made a few changes so that the readings of these principles are understood by the layman.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />

<a href="https://dogbrindlebarks.blogspot.com/2018/07/ten-things-we-canadians-pretend-to-like.html#.W1myaWUUX-0"><img border="0" data-original-height="678" data-original-width="1024" height="422" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Nwa59294PIg/W1jWTr6ewOI/AAAAAAABBKs/Rf8z3fwKyV4MRIKmWkCuMWCJQtz5gCMMACLcBGAs/s640/Untitled%2B3.002.jpeg" width="640" /></a></div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">Most Canadians think Canada is the best country in the world. Enough said. Now, what do we think of the rest of the world.</span><br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">1. We pretend to like the United States because we need the business but deep down we loath them. We think Americans in general are bossy, arrogant and have no class and Trump is an idiot.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">2. As far as Britain is concerned we pretend to like the Monarchy. There's a picture of Liz in every public building, as if she's spying on us. No one really looks at her. She's just a nuisance we put up with because we are such a loyal bunch, pledging allegiance, we just can't let her down. We feel obligated. Now with an American in the Royal Family who knows how we'll react. Time will tell.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">3. The same goes with all the other European countries; France, Holland, Sweden, we think they're too white. Snobs actually.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">4. We pretend to like the Arab countries just to keep the peace. It's not working! They keep attacking us. Little do they know we won't put up with much longer. Mental illness isn't an excuse to commit murder. To me anyway.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">5. India, China, Japan, North and South Korea, the whole Asian continent scares us, their multitudes of people. Their leaders. We've never trusted them, blame America for that.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">6. Africa is to hot and full of wild animals and exotic diseases. We only go there on Safari's after we get all the shots then, when we get back home, we pretend we had a good time but we were actually scared shitless and would never go again.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">7. South America's hot also and they have some crazy ideas about the dead. We've heard a lot about the canniballs and zombies, lurking the Amazon. They party a lot and take strange drugs.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">8. Canadians pretend to understand Australians down under but they don't speak what we call English.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">9. We don't recognize Russia, never did. We pretend to know nothing of it. Putin who?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">10. That leaves Antartica. We love the cold but it's way to cold, and there's absolutely nothing to do. So we pretend. When was the last time you've heard of someone vacationing in Antartica? Never!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">Am I alone here pretending, or am I telling the truth, eh?</span><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">If I sit here long enough something will happen, eh?</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><i>The master said, "Was it not Shun that ruled well but did nothing. What did he do?" <b>Confucius</b></i></span><br />

</i></span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">You have a chore, a task to complete. It's beneath you. You're tired and have no desire to complete it. You don't know where to start, then try Wu Wei, a Tao and Chinese concept and do nothing about it, just sit around picking your nose, maybe have a beer and do nothing. Watch and see what transpires. You may be surprised. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">In Taoism the literal meaning of Wu Wei is 'without action', without effort and without control. Surprisingly Wu Wei has moved mountains. Look at all the silent peaceful protests and marches, the sit-ins, John and Yoko's 'Bed-In'. They did nothing but stayed in bed. But it changed lives, eh? </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">Wu Wei may seem like a silly thing to do, but it works. I do it all the time. Mind you I never get anything done.</span><br />

It's A Win, Win Situation For Muslims<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://dogbrindlebarks.blogspot.com/2018/07/the-lion-shall-lie-down-with-lamb-what.html#.W1ZycNVKh0w"><img border="0" data-original-height="768" data-original-width="1024" height="480" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-uiAGWgrrCvE/W1YgcITS13I/AAAAAAABBGM/Dv5SPrkjJ-YungHs-Xm0IBZdI2G5ZvUMQCLcBGAs/s640/Untitled%2B3.001.jpeg" width="640" /></a></div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">One of the Bible prophecies is in Isaiah 11:6 which states that there will be a New World Order awaiting us in the near future.</span><br />
<a name='more'></a><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br /> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">Where lions, adults and cubs will lie down with lambs and sheep and leopards with goats, sometimes baby goats, while wolves live with them all. They will all eat together in peace. All animals I imagine will suddenly turn vegetarian. Lions will eat straw.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">Fat cows, ox, lions and yearlings will unite together as one big group all living in harmony. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">To top it off, they will all be led by a child. Some versions say it will be a boy. Other versions say it's a bunch of kids, boys and girls that will be the new leaders in this New World providing for everyone and every living thing. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">Unfortunately, there is no mention of the poor little pig, sow or boar, not even a baby piglet. Does that mean there's no future for them? If not what does that mean? No more pulled pork sandwiches, no ham and cheese, no bacon!!!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">It truly would be the end of the world with no more bacon, especially Canadian Bacon but I guess it's a win, win situation for Muslims, wouldn't you think, eh?</span><br />

<a href="https://dogbrindlebarks.blogspot.com/2018/07/cilice-underwear-that-itched-like-hell.html#.W1S0nWUUX-0"><img border="0" data-original-height="768" data-original-width="1024" height="480" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-UJDyh3ONdi4/W1SztIsXcqI/AAAAAAABBFs/GCctyxIbGNwrDdrDmNDyqN0vjC6ZWZgvQCLcBGAs/s640/Untitled%2B3.008.jpeg" width="640" /></a></div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">It's hard to imagine walking around all day wearing an old itchy (sackcloth) or Cilice.</span><br />
<a name='more'></a><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">A burlap potato sack for underwear, rubbing and irritating your skin around your groin area but people do, as a self-imposed means of repentance and mortification of the flesh. The more uncomfortable the better. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">People wore Cilices before written history. They could tell by scars left on the skin of mummies. Originally they were made of coarse, black goat hair, laced with wire and twigs to irritate the skin but today anything can be called a Cilice, just as long as it's used for the purpose intended, to repent or mortification of the flesh.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">In an odd way it represented a 'cleansing' of the soul. It's a Christian thing, eh?</span><br />

</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">The world is void of oxygen. Elements like; Carbon, Hydrogen and Nitrogen are brewing a cocktail of ammonia and methane, like a bowl of soup. There is no life. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">Suddenly, there is a thunderbolt. A streak of lightning crosses the sky, then there is a sonic boom. </span></div>

</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">The lightning bolt and ultraviolet light clash with all these gases, creating water vapour, sugars and amino acids which joined to create proteins. Over time other compounds called nucleotides formed chains of nucleic acid which turned into DNA.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">Then the big moment happens; Protein molecules meet DNA, the 'Ultimate Love Story.' They recognize each other and unite in an endless embrace to survive. And survive they do.</span></div>

<a href="https://dogbrindlebarks.blogspot.com/2018/07/if-you-want-to-be-admired-act.html#.W1DOdmUUX-0"><img border="0" data-original-height="657" data-original-width="1024" height="410" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-z-wetbnsUsU/W1DMyf8hQ5I/AAAAAAABBEg/Ai70k-dmjdU6Yk4A87cylpZWallEjYsUgCLcBGAs/s640/Untitled%2B3.006.jpeg" width="640" /></a></div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">If you want to be admired, which most of us do then get the hell off your high horse and stop pretending to be someone you're not.</span><br />
<a name='more'></a><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">Stop trying to please everyone because you won't. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">No one likes a fake and you're easily spotted and avoided. Be real and happy in your own skin. Let's face it, you're not the perfect specimen of a human being that you think you are, no one is or has been. There's always room for improvement but only change for yourself, not for others. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">Stop bullying and treat people the way you would like to be treated. A boss is someone that should be respected, honoured and thought of highly, not a person to be feared. As the saying goes you can't love yourself if you can't love others.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">Show others that you are genuinely interested in what they have to say. Ask! then stop, look and listen. People love a sympathetic ear. In fact, be a little interesting yourself.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">Don't be such a dizzy drama queen. Show confidence, take the first step, take the high road once in-while, show others you're just as fallible as them. They will respect you more. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">Take the easy route, be simple, the more complicated your life the easier it will be to lose track and get confused.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">Dream. Dream big! Take risks. Live life to the max and act accordingly, eh? </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">That is if you want to be admired.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">When we think of angels, we think of beings that are glowing white with wings and halos floating in the sky, descending from heaven as souls, bringing goodness, protection and beneficence. </span><br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">As seen from a human prospective neither good nor bad, carrying out God's instructions, doling out rewards and punishments to people that have done good and those that have done bad.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">They have no names, and are said to total in the hundreds of thousands.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">Then, there is the Angel of Destruction, the leader of this army of angels, that float in the air, facing him as he sits on the throne on Judgement Day. The Angel of Mercy floats on his right and the Angel of Peace floats on his left. The other angels float everywhere and take notes, watching, at the ready to obey. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">These angels are supposedly sent from God, ascend from Heaven with two major tasks at hand, to punish the wicked and to torture and purify the souls in hell (Abaddon).</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">Two of the angels, take the people who have some redeeming qualities and either purify their souls or take them down to hell. God makes all the decisions, the angels are there to carry out God's orders, nothing else. The angel, Gabriel is said to be one such angel. He was dispatched to destroy Sodom and Gomorrah.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">Take the story of David and Goliath? Popular no doubt, but have you heard the story of David and the Angel of Destruction. It goes something like this...</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">...One day David was taking a census of his army. God didn't want him to do that, so sent an Angel of Destruction to intercept as a reminder of the true strength of God. The angel floated in the air in front of David and many other witnesses, at the ready for God's command to destroy the city of Jerusalem. Instead of destroying the city, God withheld and offered David a choice of three punishments.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">1. 3 years of farming without any rain. Famine. or/</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">2. David's enemies will defeat him in 3 months. or/</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">3. A terrible disease that will strike the land for 3 days. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">David chose the terrible disease that would strike the land for 3 days. 70,000 of his soldiers died.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">I just have to ask, what type of disease was that? It struck all those soldiers at once, but there is no mention of it striking anyone else in the general public, a disease that can come and go instantly, select whom it will attack and kill them within three days. Sounds like science fiction.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">Could it be, the Angel of Destruction that David encountered with his men and witnessed floating above Jerusalem was a UFO rather than an angel? Did a UFO come to Earth in the times of David, and what really happened? Did the UFO feel threatened enough by David's army, to strike them down? </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">This is just my theory, I have nothing to back my words, but it sounds like acute radiation poisoning or something similar had struck David's army.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">Did the UFOs zap them with micro waves, then take off?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">I'll leave the choice up to you. Either Angels or UFOs? My theory works for me but in reality, one theory is as good as the other, neither provable, eh?</span><br />
