Today I've come to realize that vast quantities of my energy are spent in vain in two ways:either to fight internally with criticism and negativity towards meor to endlessly strive to gather good opinion and approvalThis is all internal conflict in which neither party has ever claimed full victory. You know why?As I said, it's internal, so one part of me always fights with another. I'm split and

It so happened that while struggling with the issues from the previous post, with staying in the present moment, with being aware, etc., etc. I started a new universal energy seminar.And next morning I saw it. I saw the correlation between my subconscious and my waking mind. I saw how my subconscious freely flows in my waking life and how it colours it without my slightest knowledge. So much for

For the past year or so I've been learning that my thoughts, opinions, feelings and memories are conditioned, ie coloured by my past experiences and therefore, NOT reality. Oh, they are very real nonetheless, because they exist in my mind and are constantly projected onto my present. This is what's called my subjective reality. But they are not real in the sense they do not arise out of the

In the journey of consciousness, there are inevitably times of difficulty and confusion. Often we make ourselves really wrong at those times. We beat ourselves up because we think we should already have it all together. What we don't understand is that every time we move to a deeper level of understanding, there's a period of confusion. Often painful or scary emotions come up at those times. [

I would rather not close on a doom&gloomy note today, not again, I've been in the dark for long, it's not a good place to be .... so, in a more ... innocent mood, I quote:Don't waste your life for that which is going to be taken away.

More food for thought on Pullman's The Amber Spyglass (the last installment from His Dark Materials)The Authority, God, the Creator, the Lord ... the Almighty -- those were all names he gave himself. He was never the creator. He was an angel like ourselves -- the first angel, true, the most powerful, but he was formed of Dust as we are, and Dust is only a name for what happens when matter begins

http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/043999358X/ref=sib_rdr_dpSPOILER WARNING!Yes, I must admit that on starting His Dark Materials (and half through The Golden Compass, to be honest) I didn't have high expectations -- I didn't think I would enjoy it as much as I did the Twilight series, the Harry Potter books, etc. I was curious and that was that.

It's the time when I start to wake up earlier, because days get longer;It's the time I want to be outside more and more;It's the time I feel the joy of birds singing, flowers blossoming and trees yawning in the spring breeze;This year the spring solstice came and went bringing snowy drizzle, wind

I always get very enthusiastic about trying new foods :)))First heard and seen kamut this January in Germany; couldn't resist buying some for home.For the uninitiated, it looks like wheat, bit it's a bit longer and chewier. Tastes bit differently as well.So for my first kamut cooking, I decided that a salad will set off it's taste nicely and I tossed up the thing on the photo above -- carrots,

It's been a year. My first and only cat, Ricky, died on 4 March 2008. I still miss her some times more than others. It's not like missing a person, but she had her own personality. I miss the small things: how she curled up to sleep somewhere on me at night, how she liked to 'talk' -- the Siamese are famously talkative, but this one was really something: such a strong and often used voice --

* No, I didn't mess up the title of the book; it's just that I'd probably draw on both The Golden Compass and The Subtle Knife in this post.SPOILER WARNING!I suppose the first time I've heard about Philip Pullman and His Dark Materials was on one of the Pottercast's episodes, the Leaky Cauldron's weekly podcast.

http://doubt-themovie.com/This is a superbly played film. I think that the Academy Award nominations are fully deserved, especially by Meryl Streep and Philip Seymour Hoffman. It's a bit strange to see Meryl in this serious role after seeing her last year in Mamma Mia -- I'm more convinced than ever that she can play anything. As for Philip -- I don't like his roles generally, but I must admit

I spent almost six months in Cologne, Germany more than ffour years ago. As it happened, together with a friend, we retraced our steps this past week.I didn't notice any major changes, it's as colourful and multicultural place as it used to be. (OK, a bit on the grey side, but that's because it's winter.)All the same, I was struck anew by the Cathedral. It's imposing and huge. You can't take one

That's the prevailing feel of that film. Lots of factors contribute to it.

Pros and cons.Used to be quite keen on listing pros and cons (mentally, not literally) when recapitulating past experiences or making decisions.Not so much anymore. I know it's widely recommended in various writings of the self-help genre, but I don't think it's either helpful or, well, right. Drawing from my own experience, I've come to the conclusion that this method is no good. Pros and cons

It's haphazard.)Twilight, of course, though it's a 2008er. I loved the book and from what I've read about and seen from the film so far tell me that I'd enjoy that, too. My main concern with films based on books is

http://www.australiamovie.net/Oh my, would you look at that site! On opening it, I expected the typical film website, you know, cast and crew info, trailers, gallery, downloads perhaps ... However, this one looks like a fan website: it's got news, videos, its own forum even!Anyways, back to the film itself. It's been a while since I've seen some drama, so I'd be a tad more positive about it. (

As Margaret Fuller says: "A house is no home unless it contains food and fire for the mind as well as the body."So on a festicious note:Want a fireplace in my house some day: Cat for traditional crafts: rugs, wicker baskets ... Wouldn't mind having such a ceiling. Wood creates such a homey atmosphere!

I love the names in the Twilight series, especially Esme, Carlisle, Emmett, Jasper (it's great when they call them Em and Jazz:) And Renesmee is a very clever one as well.I wonder if they mean anything ...P.S. I forgot to mention Seth, Leah, Jared and Quil:)

http://www.stepheniemeyer.com/twilightseries.htmlSPOILER WARNING!I just thought I'd throw in a few things about about Breaking Dawn. It's been a while since I finished it, but I had to chew it over, and now that I finished the series, I turned to the fandom to check what's going on over there. I still have a lot of catching up to do on that front:)I've read that one almost overnight, literally,

Winter is a good season for movies.I've been to the cinema twice for a week -- Body of Lies is finally here and I've seen one film (well, better than none) from the film fest, This is England. And ... Twilight the movie was released on 21 November ... in the US (Hurray! nevertheless). So I'm waiting ... and chewing over Body of Lies in the meantime:)

I've been aiming to add more links forever. Here is a very interesting one on myth:http://journeytothesea.com/It drew my attention in connection with the Harry Potter series and The Lord of the Rings so I'm sure I'd be discussing bits of it now and then.

It's not that I forgot I wanted to blog on films as well. It's just that I haven't seen anything new recently. Because there's not much to see. OK, there's plenty going on, but not much to my taste. Speaking of the cinema scene, (excluding the ongoing film fest for the time being) I've noticed that for the past year or maybe a little more, the cineplexes are premiering more and more Bulgarian and

http://twilightsource.com/tsgallery/?level=album&id=5&plog_page=3SPOILER WARNING!When Jacob Black first appeared in Twilight (maybe I'm repeating myself, but anyway), I didn't think he'll pay such a major role in the series. He turns out to be a werewolf, an Alpha, a born leader, though he didn't want that birthright. From the very begining, he's likable and easy-going and Bella often says that

This blog suspiciously look like a Twilight fan blog, but it's not. It just takes time to go through the thousands of pages that make up the series.This last book is the size of a brick and it's

Part of it had to do with the fact that I know I'd have very little time for reading today (I was right). The bigger part was that I couldn't just put it down. OK, I pronounce it my favourite from the Twilight series

http://twilightsource.com/tsgallery/?level=album&id=5 SPOILER WARNING! The more I think about Bella, the more I find that there is more to her than meets the eye.Starting with her looks: she sees herself as rather plain and 'klutzy', but as Edward says, she doesn't see herself clearly. Even though I was spoilt by the pictures of Kristen Stewart (who plays her in the Twilight movie, http://

I am not sure what I do with the time, but it's certainly gone before I know it these days.Anyways, I've got lots of posts on Twilight on their way!I thought of starting with some first thoughts on characters, which will be fleshed out as I read along.So I want to start with Bella, Edward and then the rest of the Cullens.On a separate note, I've got some really good sites I want to link; they are

One of the reasons (the best one) is that I've been reading the Twilight series by Stephanie Meyer (yes, the very same one that brought about this blog; for further details, see my first post).

I go for novels whenever I can; that is, when I read fiction.Novels are the best place for developing characters and putting them in plausible circumstances ... and submerging oneself in them ...Anyway, along with buying the Twilight series (naturally), I grabbed a copy of The Love Letters of Dylan Thomas, something I would probably not have done were it not for the cover.Yes, I know you can't

It occurred to me that it may seem a bit odd to finish Bridget Jones and not follow it up with the sequel immediately. The reason is that I read both books some time ago and this was a reread. And since I have a lot of unread books clamouring for my attention at home, I prefer to leave the sequel for later:)Perhaps I should also explain that I like to go back to books I've enjoyed; not just

As I mentioned in my previous post, I've been on holiday recently. I spent most of it on the greenest of green islands, Ireland. No wonder it's dubbed the Green Island. The grass riveted my eyes (more so when it's sunny), but that's not the only reason I found Ireland charming.For such a comparatively small country with small population it offers quite a variety of things to do and see. Dublin

It's been a couple of weeks now, I mean, since I finished Helen Fielding's Bridget Jones's Diary.I've been on holiday and that delayed this post. Anyway, let's get down to it now.Bridget Jones's Diary has a lot to do with Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice and in many ways for me it reads like a Pride and Prejudice from the 20th century. Both books even share a character with the same name, Mark

12 August. Oh, goody. I'm so excited about reading Bridget Jones's Diary by Helen Fielding, it's so much fun! But better not spoil this post by rushing through it in a manner of a drunk behind the wheel. Yes, it's much better to listen to calm and inspirational music to instill zen-like awareness of self and come up with a brilliant post afterwards.

I've never fancied myself as a blogger -- perhaps I haven't given it enough thought or simply thought I couldn't be bothered ...That is, until today. To start at the beginning, I must confess that I am an avid Harry Potter fan. Today being Saturday, I was doing my regular Harry Potter news check of the fansites, when I came across a post on www.mugglenet.com about an interview with the Twilight
