The Universe told me today (via e-mail) that-

“Thinking brand new thoughts that you’ve never thought before Doug

is wildly more conducive to creating big life changes than just thinking different varieties of the same old thoughts you have everyday.

Think about it -The Universe

I shot back a reply- “Pardon my glibness oh great Devine Miss U. but I beg to differ…just a wee bit about what you just said!

The Universe (only mildly surprised) replies- “Excuse me Douglas, what is this your saying? Are you disagreeing with Moi?

Do you wish to stay locked on the same level of the game, NEVER achieving more?

Is this yet another excuse to not be all you want to be? Cuz, I have heard them ALL before trust m Bro!”

Trying to be insightful, I continue with – “No, your great U-ness not at all, what I am eluding to is, I do not think you need the to be so radical in your approach; going out seeking a brand new vocabulary to have “thoughts you’ve never thought before” to achieve these great life changes.

Dear Universe,

I have found the Ultimate expression that is better than “Going Green”, better than “Animal Safe” and adds color to our environment  too!

I found Robbie the Rhino here in a thrift store looking for a make-over, and as I took him apart and marveled at his clever design I found his makers, Chris and Company at Cardboardsafari.com a clever bunch of wonderful people, and we started to talk about wild Game!

The words Robbie the RainBow Rhino inspired the make-over, all done with my own original crayon technique you can see more on my artist tab, the white calking gave Robbie a frosted look, so once mounted on his sun and circular plaque, my inner child started to think about going on a color safari for the rare- but not endangered “Frosted Rhino”. The trick is to find a cherry big enough for his horn? hmmmm….

My new friends at Cardboardsafri.com Chris and Co. have said they would provide the raw materials for more color safari creatures.  If you should have a desire for one please contact me here on my site and lets see what beauty is lurking to be explored and discovered, help me support the environment and my new buds at Cardboardsafari.com

Enjoy and Go Gently.

Doug

“Days of Significance”

This morning, as I begin to rise and greet the day, I am becoming conscious and alert for the very first time in my life.  I have this beginning of an understanding that gently washes over me, it enlivens my inner being bringing me to a point of blissful alertness. Wow, this is better than Christmas!

Today will be my 1st Day of school & also my Graduation from it, it will be the day I am born (my true 1st Birthday) & my most recent Anniversary of that day. It’s the day where I will fly out on stage (for the first time ever) as that tenacious little bumblebee & the day of my 7^th Olympic Games Opening Ceremonies where I will “Thank” for the last time my 4000 volunteer cast-members. The day that I hear that I am voted “Most Talented” at my High School (a place I thought, thought me invisible) & the day I receive an Emmy Award.  It feels like the day I am going to meet Ron and Judy for the first time ever & the day I know that they are gone from my life forever.  Finally, it feels like the day I “Get it” that I will finally meet the Universe face to face… on even ground…as equals, friends and fellow Gypsies..

In short, (a little too late for that don’t you think), as I wake to consciousness this morning I feel I have reached the day of why I AM HERE, my understanding of the totality of… well, ME! I realize I am at my Being Point.

By derfinition; THE BEING POINT^TM is the always present moment of truth at which we are most fully alive and aware, at which love is chosen over fear, at which humans and organizations take control of their own destinies and give deliberate direction to their own evolution. (Read more…)
