You, Yes You, You Are Special
And Don’t You Forget It!
Don’t Allow Anyone To Tell You Otherwise.
Take a minute to close your eyes and thank yourself for you, just you, to say I Love Me and I am Special π

Viewer discretion is required to watch this video, but I assure you it is Β MUST watch…..
We Must Make Changes,
We Must remember it is their world too,
We are destroying our planet,
Our Earth is hungry for our Love,
Why do we remain silent?
We are dying to along with our Planet.
We are capable of conquering Oceans, Planets but we cannot conquer our own hearts!
We must change our habits, we must educate our children,
We must Change!
Our Time is Now, the future of our planet is still in our hands
The Future of our planet is… YOU!

I have talked about this in some blogs before…It only takes One!
We can all do good in this world, help ourselves, help our friends, our neighbours, our family, our brothers and sisters in far away lands who are so much less fortunate than ourselves, our environment, global warming, conflict resolution, peace on earth…..It is in our power and it only takes One….
One Person,
One Hope,
One Voice,
One Smile,
One Hand,
One Word,
One Touch,
One Laugh,
One Candle,
One Life,
One Tree,
One Person Wanting Change,
One Person Who Has Had Enough With Excuses
One Person Who Cares…….
It Only Takes One to Start a Chain Reaction…….Can you Be That Person?
Namaste
With Love, With Smiles and with Joy.

Well, that’s it, my last day in paradise, so today started with a 1.5 hour snorkelling session on the reef tidal pools close to our house then followed by a leisurely lunch and rest next to the ocean….oh then a reality check…come on said my wife we need to buy a few gifts to take back for friends…peace broken…:)
No matter what your dreams are…Don’t Give Up on them….
You will be tested,
You may be ridiculed,
You may feel disheartened,
You may sometimes feel lost,
And often you will cry…
But Never, Never Give Up, because …….Achievement May Be Around the Next Corner!

Well my 15 day trip to the Big Island of Hawaii is nearly over π¦ and I will be soon travelling back to Shanghai to take up my spiritual journey once again, but I have so much to tell you, so much to share with you regarding my spiritual experiences here in beautiful Hawaii….I almost cannot wait to share the biggest experience and amazing connection I had on the night of Tuesday 9th October while we were in Kona…Let me just set the scene and I will update you on this amazing experience and many more when we get back to Shanghai…Tuesday 9th October the evening started off with a stunning Crescent Red Moon shining its magnificence over the beautiful pacific ocean with about 10 or more huge Manta Rays feeding directly in front and around me, their feeding was like a ballet, their, grace, speed and agility amazing to behold……then around midnight off to bed with beautiful memories of a fantastic day….But wait… there is more, so much more…
To Be Continued….
I Promise…

Somedays you just feel down,
Somedays you just feel lost,
Somedays your just lost for words,
Somedays you don’t feel loved,
Somedays you don’t know which way to turn,
Somedays you feel so alone,
Somedays you have no confidence,
Somedays you just want to be on your own,
Somedays you feel empty in side,
Somedays life feels so hard,
Somedays you just want to cry,
………
But Somedays life is GREAT,
Somedays Life is SWEET
Somedays you feel beautiful,
Somedays you just want to smile,
Somedays everyone loves you,
Somedays you want to be out with friends,
Somedays are perfect for a party,
Somedays everything is within your reach,
Somedays everything is possible,
Somedays you want to sing out loud,
Somedays you want to dance in the rain,
But everyday…..IS A GIFT….Life is a GIFT….You are a GIFT…..You are BEAUTIFUL…..You are LOVE….You are LIGHT……
Respect YOURSELF…Everyday…Not just Someday..
Namaste

Water is a cleanser for the body and the soul, you can see how important water is in all religions, also water is vital to our health and wellbeing. The next time you have rain, don’t curse it, look at it for what it is and how important it is for the survival of people all around the world, the difference between Life and Death is often determined by rainfall.
Some faiths use water especially prepared for religious purposes holy water in some Christian denominations,Β amrita in Sikhism and Hinduism). Many religions also consider particular sources or bodies of water to be sacred or at least auspicious; examples include Lourdes in Roman Catholicism, the Jordan RiverΒ (at least symbolically) in some Christian churches, the Zamzam WellΒ in Islam and the River GangesΒ (among many others) in Hinduism.
Faiths that incorporate ritual washing (ablution)Β include Christianity, Hinduism, Buddhism, Sikhism, Judaism, Islam The Baha i Faith, Shinto, Taoism and the Rastafari movement.Β Β Immersion (or aspersion or affusion )Β of a person in water is a central sacramentΒ of Christianity (where it is called baptism); it is also a part of the practice of other religions, including Judaism (mikvah) and Sikhism (Amrit Sanskar).Β In addition, a ritual bath in pure water is performed for the dead in many religions including Judaism and Islam. In Islam, the five daily prayers can be done in most cases after completing washing certain parts of the body using clean water (wudu). In Shinto, water is used in almost all rituals to cleanse a person or an area (e.g., in the ritual of misogi.Β
In Hinduism, statues of Durga and GaneshΒ are immersed in rivers at the final stages of the festivals Durga Puja and Ganesh ChaturthiΒ Β respectively.
In Christianity, the baptism of JesusΒ is an important moment in Christian theology, and is the third most important feast of the Church, following EasterΒ and PentecostΒ Its feast, called TheophanyΒ or Epiphany, is celebrated on January 6th.
Water deities are usually a focus of worship at specific springs or holy wells, but there are also more abstract oceanΒ Β deities, and deities representing “water” as an abstract element, such a AbansΒ Β in Zoroastrianism.
Example for local tutelaryΒ water deities include Celtic SulisΒ , worshipped at the thermal spring at Bath, or Ganges in Hinduism, personified as a goddess. The Hindu goddess SaraswatiΒ originated as a personification of the Saraswati RiverΒ in the Rigveda, but became a more abstract deity of wisdom in Hinduism. African examples include the YorubaΒ river goddess Oshun, the LgboΒ lake goddess Β Ogbuide, (Uhammiri), or the Igbo river goddess, LdemiliΒ (Achebe).

Stop.and.Think!…Who is in control of your life?
Is it you… or others?
We often live our lives with other people in control of our minds, our feelings and our emotions, they steer our lives following their path with little concern over our thoughts and our opinions.
Maybe it’s time to take stock, to take a look at our lives and take control over our own future.
Life can be good, it can be great, we just need to regain control.
Come on, have strength, look forward to a new YOU… π

My friends,
I have no idea about politics, why one party is better than another, who should be in power…. but all I know and all I have learned from living and being a honest citizen of this world for over 50 years is…they all Lie, they all coerce to gain all they can from us for the benefit of their own personal wealth, …for the benefit of their wealthy business relationships, supporters and friends…It’s a game, a game that only they can win…unless of course we start to speak up….Now I see that the US Government is shut down,….. WHY?…From what I can see , once again it’s all about power, and some of the government and opposition don’t like some of the decisions being made…Why? well because its not in THEIR BEST INTEREST, I.e, these decisions go against their personal thoughts and their personal business and wealth interests, so if they do not speak up, THEIR financial supporters and rich friends will become annoyed, Pi**ed Off, so what do they do…they force the government to shut in order to get what they want…it becomes a panic situation, time for back stabbing, rumour making and positioning…this is not about governance…This is about POWER, personal power, INDIVIDUAL position, individual power, individual wealth and company wealth…and if you are not behind them and their way of thinking then they will come after you….
Maybe now is the time for some honest talk, not the dressed up spin that we hear each and everyday from politicians in every country and every city in OUR world…now is the time to speak up against all this bullshit…these individual power games, these individual wealth games which use US, you and I as pieces within their game, our lives as pawns within their political power games, our futures, our jobs and our homes in THEIR personal power games….Its time to speak up my friends, we need to do something now, have our voices heard for the benefit of our futures, for the safety and security of our children and our grandchildren, for the better of our countries, for our beliefs, for our oceans, for our forests, for our atmosphere…..Think on my friends, now is the time to have our voices heard, we need to have a say in what transpires, we need to be part of the outcome, not just sit back and let them do it to us again, we need to remember that it is us that puts them in power…unfortunately they forget this, they spin words to us that make us think they care, but at the end of the day, they never, never do what is in OUR best interest…their decisions end in wars, in financial melt down, in foreclosures, creates homelessness, starvation and pollution which we then all have to endure, these decisions never, never effect them because the frakking, the pipelines, the waste dumps, the electrical power stations and the chemical dumps are not on their land or near their homes, these decisions are all about wealth and political gain….not one decision is made for our benefit because WE, the citizens of this earth are not on their radar, these politicians do not loose sleep at night worrying about our welfare, if we have enough food on our table today, if we have a roof over our head tonight, or if we will have a job to go to tomorrow…and if you believe different than you really need to STOP and think again!
So how many more years and more generations will we allow this to continue?
Tomorrow is another day, it can be another day controlled by the politicians and their wealth or it can be a NEW DAY……
Namaste my friends.
With love to you all.

My friends, I am so blessed to have spent my day swimming and lazing with these beautiful turtles on the Big Island of Hawaii. I have seen them before but this time was very different, I guess I’m so much closer to them this year from a energy perspective, it was as though we were communicating through thought.
These stunning creatures need protecting for our children and grandchildren to enjoy.
Wow, i’m still buzzing now π
Namaste to you all with love and light and the fantastic energy of Hawaii.

Wow….I have consciously procrastinated all day today…meaning I have done absolutely nothing other than chill out, relax, meditate, look at the clear blue sky, listen to the songs of the birds in the trees and feel the warmth of the sun on my skin…and I feel absolutely fantastic π
I wish the same for you all tomorrow…take some time for yourself, chill out enjoy life π

My dear friends,
Please take a moment to watch this beautiful video by Amanda Taylor of KraftedKhaosΒ http://freefunorinteresting.wordpress.com in reply to my post Self Awareness to Help Awaken Humanity. It is a truly beautiful and inspiring video.
Namaste Amanda and thank you my friend for thinking of me π

Wise ; Wise words from Lao Tzu, and I am one in which needs to take note of them and make deeper observations to my own self-awareness.
Each and every day I try so hard to help awaken humanity, I care so much about the environment that we live in, the future for our children, the wars raging on all around the world, the hunger, the discrimination, the object poverty, the cruelty and selfishness inflicted on the many by the few whom have control that it breaks my heart. I fight off tears all day long due to the suffering I see all around me, and I feel the hurt that is going on in our world….But, I myself must dig deeper if I want to help make change happen, I must try harder, I must reflect upon myself, seek out my own inner darkness and negativity and replace them with light and greater positivity.
It is true that the greatest gift we can give to this world is Our Own Self-Transformation, I still have a long way to go, I do get bogged down with details, I procrastinate too often and try to solve all the problems of this world at once. I am in fact my own worse enemy. I need help, I need rest and I need to focus and make inner change happen before I can continue on with my journey.
My dear friends, thank you all for for follows, your continued support and you love and light π
Namaste
With Love
Mark
