You take your happiness and unhappiness with you wherever you go. If you can’t find happiness here, you won’t find it there either – or anywhere for that matter.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Human Potential209 views0 answers0 votesAudrey Niffenegger, wrote in her first book, The Time Traveler’s Wife, “Why is love intensified by absence?” What can Creator tell us?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Human Potential184 views0 answers0 votesThis passage is from a poem by Edna St. Vincent Millay: “Time does not bring relief; you all have lied Who told me time would ease me of my pain! I miss him in the weeping of the rain; I want him at the shrinking of the tide; The old snows melt from every mountain-side, And last year’s leaves are smoke in every lane; But last year’s bitter loving must remain Heaped on my heart, and my old thoughts abide.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Human Potential161 views0 answers0 votesLionel Shriver wrote: “A lot of people get so hung up on what they can’t have that they don’t think for a second about whether they really want it.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Human Potential174 views0 answers0 votesJohn Galsworthy wrote: “It was such a spring day as breathes into a man an ineffable yearning, a painful sweetness, a longing that makes him stand motionless, looking at the leaves or grass, and fling out his arms to embrace he knows not what.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Human Potential163 views0 answers0 votesErik Pevernagie wrote: “If we only see things through the cold-eyed lens of factuality and don’t listen to the yearning and screaming of unexpressed feelings, life may remain bleak in a mire of clinical hollowness, sodden in apathy and indifference.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Human Potential155 views0 answers0 votesLouise Erdrich wrote: “Life will break you. Nobody can protect you from that, and being alone won’t either, for solitude will also break you with its yearning. You have to love. You have to feel. It is the reason you are here on earth. You have to risk your heart. You are here to be swallowed up. And when it happens that you are broken, or betrayed, or left, or hurt, or death brushes too near, let yourself sit by an apple tree and listen to the apples falling all around you in heaps, wasting their sweetness. Tell yourself that you tasted as many as you could.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Human Potential181 views0 answers0 votesUnfulfilled, unrequited, and often ineffable soul yearnings can be immensely painful and even debilitating. Can Creator share how Empowered Prayer and the Lightworker Healing Protocol can be used to clear the obstacles to fulfillment, intimacy, and contentment, by truly equipping the individual with tools they can easily and productively use to remodel and rejuvenate their interior experience?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Human Potential185 views0 answers0 votesOne of the most common everyday superstitions is the idea of “beginner’s luck.” Is there such a thing? There is an article by columnist Stephanie Pappas, on nbcnews.com, titled Thirteen Common (but silly) Superstitions to Savor. In it, Pappas writes about beginner’s luck: “Like many superstitions, a belief in beginner’s luck might arise because of confirmation bias. Confirmation bias is a psychological phenomenon in which people are more likely to remember events that fit their worldview. If you believe you’re going to win because you’re a beginner, you’re more likely to remember all the times you were right—and forget the times you ended up in last place.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Limiting Beliefs267 views0 answers0 votesAnother common superstition is “don’t walk under a ladder.” Clearly, there are some practical reasons for not doing this, but Pappas writes about other historical beliefs surrounding this caveat, “One theory holds that this superstition arises from a Christian belief in the Holy Trinity: Since a ladder leaning against a wall forms a triangle, ‘breaking’ that triangle was blasphemous. Then again, another popular theory is that a fear of walking under a ladder has to do with its resemblance to a medieval gallows.” What can Creator tell us?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Limiting Beliefs236 views0 answers0 votes“A rabbit’s foot will bring you luck.” Pappas writes: “Talismans and amulets are a time-honored way of fending off evil; consider the crosses and garlic that are supposed to keep vampires at bay. Rabbit feet as talismans may hark back to early Celtic tribes in Britain. They may also arise from hoodoo, a form of African American folk magic and superstition that blends Native American, European and African tradition.” Can Creator tell us how this superstition came about, and if there is an actual reality to it?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Limiting Beliefs217 views0 answers0 votes“Bad luck comes in threes.” But then so does good luck as the “hat trick” in hockey celebrates. Pappas writes: “Remember confirmation bias? The belief that bad luck comes in threes is a classic example. A couple of things go wrong, and believers may start to look for the next bit of bad luck. A lost shoe might be forgotten one day, but seen as the third in a series of bad breaks the next.” What is Creator’s perspective on “bad luck comes in threes?”ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Limiting Beliefs263 views0 answers0 votesPappas writes: “According to folklore, breaking a mirror is a surefire way to doom yourself to seven years of bad luck. The superstition seems to arise from the belief that mirrors don’t just reflect your image; they hold bits of your soul. That belief led people in the old days of the American South to cover mirrors in a house when someone died, lest their soul be trapped inside.” What can Creator tell us about mirrors and the widespread belief in their hazards?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Limiting Beliefs247 views0 answers0 votes“Knock on wood.” Pappas writes, “This phrase is almost like a verbal talisman, designed to ward off bad luck after tempting fate: ‘Breaking that mirror didn’t bring me any trouble, knock on wood.’ The fixation on wood may come from old myths about good spirits in trees or from an association with the Christian cross. Similar phrases abound in multiple languages, suggesting that the desire not to upset a spiteful universe is very common.” What can Creator tell us about “knocking on wood?”ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Limiting Beliefs241 views0 answers0 votes“Cross your fingers.” Pappas writes: “Those wishing for luck will often cross one finger over another, a gesture that’s said to date back to early Christianity. The story goes that two people used to cross index fingers when making a wish, a symbol of support from a friend to the person making the wish. (Anything associated with the shape of the Christian cross was thought to be good luck.) The tradition gradually became something people could do on their own.” What can Creator tell us?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Limiting Beliefs202 views0 answers0 votes
