The Drama and Karma of Relationships
"The mask of light and truth is false when funded by hatred."
- Crow Medicine
Keeping good health and course in relationships is a daunting road to navigate... equally, the architecture of our own minds and consciousness is just as challenging in all the imbuing emotional landscapes... One of the most challenging and ugliest is dealing with rage and domestic violence. Both overt and covert. And whether it's online or offline... dealing with chaos and highly negative emotions and reactions is a real experience for many.
Negative agendas can be out in the open, or they can hide behind a foray or deceptions. Anger, resentment and jealousy are often camouflaged by a grossly self righteous demeanor and pompous exterior... It’s important to distinguish between those on the path of peace, and those on the path of war. Well versed practitioners of manipulation and emotional blackmail will place themselves on a saint-like pedestal in an attempt to justify their obscene behavior, thus the facade of truth and justice begins to peal, and the true layers begin to reveal a highly negative agenda and motivation.
The self appointed guru with the 'holier than tho' attitude, will publicly anoint themselves in a glossy stream of high spiritual preaching’s and glitter, yet in reality they swim in the muck of their own foul delusion.
It's very easy for one to say they are a champion of love, truth and honor.... preach the gospel of integrity etc. However, words and fancy displays can account for naught if their 'real' behavior and 'face', speaks something vastly different pertaining to a hate-constructed football field. For example, and mostly critically - one who is a legitimate beacon of love and truth, will be armed with depthless humility and compassion, they will adopt a kind, sensible, understanding and noble approach to all tasks in every step they take.. and if they make a wrong step, they will go back, and move forward again only when their bearing is just. Real love and truth makes no room or bargain upon anything less than those attributes.
People who have over inflated egos will harness and engage distorted logic/reasoning, further amalgamated with a temperament that will twist everything another might say in order to satisfy their own failures and insecurities so they can be right and feel justified in their actions. Ego maniacs love to perform and will shine their brightest phony light for their friends and seek audience. They will go to any lengths to see their bullshit solidified, such as playing the victim role or invalidating others, being cruel and callas, entice dissent, whilst propping themselves up further in their own immortal shrine. Much of their baloney will occur under the pretense of love and justice or truth... But such behavioral patterns and traits have nothing remotely whatsoever to do with love. Love does not look like that! Neither to the blind nor the dumb! It only looks like that in the cold eyes of spite, corruption and hatred.
Failure to reason and move forward with unwavering sincerity and warmth, real wish to initiate, see peace realized within themselves and upon others... will leave the person suspended in self created misery and hurt... for a very very long time!
There has to be maturity and wisdom working in tandem for real progress towards peace in order for it to be realized. Within the emotional conundrum, rational discernment, kindness and sincerity is a choice...We all know who we are if we look deep enough... we all have the ability to make choices based on objectives and desires that are kind and authentic, or stained with negative intent.
The best defense against those who attempt to subjugate us into their mental fallacy, or nonsensical racketeering, is to stand firm and say NO. Be non participant to their stage antics.... move right away... walk away. By reacting, you give them what they want... Ignore and keep ignoring. Give your time and energy only to those who express back to you the same love and kindness you wish for yourself.

Blue Gold: World Water Wars | Ouro Azul: Guerras Mundiais Pela Água
English: Wars of the future will be fought over water as they are over oil today, as the source of human survival enters the global marketplace and political arena.

Eckhart Tolle - Enlightened Love Relationships
A MUST SEE
Excerpts from the book "THE POWER OF NOW"
By Eckhart Tolle
"The power of Now" is considered by many to be one of the most important books ever written regarding personal development.
Synopsis about the book: To make the journey into the Now we will need to leave our analytical mind and its false created self, the ego, behind. From the very first page of this extraordinary book, we move rapidly into a significantly higher altitude where we breathe a lighter air. We become connected to the indestructible essence of our Being, "The eternal, ever present One Life beyond the myriad forms of life that are subject to birth and death." Although the journey is challenging, Eckhart Tolle uses simple language and an easy question and answer format to guide us.

PORTUGUÊS: Vencedor do Óscar para melhor documentário de 2009. Documentário que expõe a matança dos golfinhos no Japão, onde cerca de 23 mil são mortos anualmente e muitos outros são capturados para serem enviados para parques de diversões. O filme mostra Taiji, uma pequena cidade do Japão que parece ser dedicada às maravilhas e mistérios dos elegantes e brincalhões golfinhos e baleias que nadam ao largo das suas costas oceânicas. Mas, em uma remota enseada cercada por arame farpado e placas de “afaste-se”, é onde os pescadores de Taiji, impulsionados por uma multi-bilionária indústria do entretenimento com golfinhos e um mercado clandestino de sua carne, participam de uma caçada invisível..

FOOD INC - You will never look at food the same way
An important documentary presenting about how food is produce and its consequences for people, animals and nature.
Hungry for Change
In Food, Inc., filmmaker Robert Kenner lifts the veil on our nation's food industry, exposing the highly mechanized underbelly that has been hidden from the American consumer with the consent of our government's regulatory agencies, USDA and FDA. Our nation's food supply is now controlled by a handful of corporations that often put profit ahead of consumer health, the livelihood of the American farmer, the safety of workers and our own environment. We have bigger-breasted chickens, the perfect pork chop, herbicide-resistant soybean seeds, even tomatoes that won't go bad, but we also have new strains of E. coli—the harmful bacteria that causes illness for an estimated 73,000 Americans annually. We are riddled with widespread obesity, particularly among children, and an epidemic level of diabetes among adults.
Featuring interviews with such experts as Eric Schlosser (Fast Food Nation), Michael Pollan (The Omnivore's Dilemma, In Defense of Food: An Eater's Manifesto) along with forward thinking social entrepreneurs like Stonyfield's Gary Hirshberg and Polyface Farms' Joel Salatin, Food, Inc. reveals surprising—and often shocking truths—about what we eat, how it's produced, who we have become as a nation and where we are going from here.

Invisible Children - A touching documentary
In the spring of 2003, three young Americans traveled to Africa in search of such as story. What they found was a tragedy that disgusted and inspired them. A story where children are weapons and children are the victims.
The "Invisible Children: rough cut" film exposes the effects of a 20 year-long war on the children of Northern Uganda. These children live in fear of abduction by rebel soldiers, and are being forced to fight as a part of violent army. This wonderfully reckless documentary is fast paced, with an MTV beat, and is something truly unique. To see Africa through young eyes is humorous and heart breaking, quick and informative - all in the very same breath. See this film, you will be forever changed.
