This was a rich uplifting movie of a true story.  The main character, Jean-Dominique Bauby,  was the editor in chief of Elle Magazine in France. He was a man about a town. He had had a mistress with whom he had two or three children but didn’t choose to marry or to live with. (more…)

A few days ago, since I wrote about Fairy Tales, I have been excited about the idea of a 7 Heavenletter book or ebook of fairy tales.

Jochen, I actually did a search on the Heavenletter page on my own!

I found lots and lots of Heavenletters with reference to fairy tales, Cinderella, Cinderella’s carriage, the prince, frog prince, Hansel and Gretel,  wicked witch, wicked stepmother, Pied Piper, Open Sesame. I couldn’t find (more…)

I have talked about The Education of Little Tree. It is a fine compassionate book. I regard this book highly. All book reviewers regarded this book highly. It is one of my all-time favorite books. The movie too.

The book was taken off book lists (more…)

A Heavenletter™ I read over today made me think of a book I just finished reading. The book is My Antonia by Willa Cather.

I read over at least three specific Heavenletters a day in the conducting of Heaven business. (more…)

The Education of Little Tree is one of the very best books I’ve ever read and one of the best movies I’ve ever seen. They are both BEAUTIFUL, excellent, well-done. I don’t see how either the book or the movie could be better. I have to tell you that I am hard to please, and this book and movie both please me exceedingly.

I didn’t know this story when I was teaching school. Had I known it, I would have wanted my children to read it. I might have read it to them. And if the movie had been out, we would have gone to see the movie. (more…)

There is more than one book, of course, that I want to take.  There are boxes of books I want to take, but most of them are with the Spiritual Center in mind.

There are a few, not many, that I want to take for myself or for long evenings to read aloud on the Oneness Journey.

Here’s one of them: (more…)

There is someone I know who, I’m quite sure, is the color Violet. Of course, it’s not for me from the outside to decide that anyone is this color or that.  It is up to the individual himself. Yet I do know someone, and you know him too, that I am positive is Violet.

The colors I’m talking about are based on the book Life Colors by Pamala Oslee. You may remember from an earlier blog that, according to that system, I’m Lavender, and many of you found that you are Chrystal, Magenta etc. and one of you confessed that you are Lavender too!

Lavender I am, yet I might prefer to be a Violet! (more…)

When I first heard of this TV Show, I thought, “Ugh.” Men with money and women with looks, and that’s what matters to them most of all.  Hmph, I thought, what happened to the observation that outer beauty is only skin-deep, and money is only money? I would never waste my time watching men and women with values I shun go on TV and who aren’t even embarrassed.  How uncouth. How shoddy. How superficial. I was too prim to even consider watching such a show. (more…)

What we call miracles are unexpected experiences. We don’t predict them beforehand. They create wonder in us. We are in awe of them.

When we expect a miracle, we are not so impressed with it, for it doesn’t take us by surprise. (more…)

When I worked with people looking for work, I used several quickie tests. I never liked long tests. I liked short ones that took no time at all to take and no time at all to go over.

No test tells the whole story. At the very least, however, personality tests can give us a frame of reference and a vocabulary to use to help us know who we are and what matters to us. (more…)
