It IS true that everybody is unique but it is NOT true that nobody is OK.

There is a scale of almost infinite graduations from rock bottom to the stars and we are all on it. AND we change position on it. Sometimes by the minute.

IMHO the first attitude to have is that you want to improve your position on the scale.

The second is that there are laws and rules and truths to be known and we need to learn AND APPLY them to move up on the scale.

The third is to recognise is that the above process will not be easy. There will be tough times. Unimaginably tough times.

There will be obstacles that seem insurmountable until you overcome them.

There will be trials that test your patience and resolve until you pass them.

There will be distractions galore away from which you will need to discipline yourself.

There will be things in your past you find difficult to confront, for it was the lack of confronting them then got you to where you are today.

But as you walk the path to enlightenment and truth, things get easier, they get better, your relationships iron out, you become more at cause over your work and life, you are more productive and feel happier.

This I tell you honestly from personal experience. And I wish for you what I have gained for me.

Behind every bad condition will be found a psychiatrist.

In 1947 the then president of the World Federation of Mental Health, Brock Chisholm, said, “The reinterpretation and eventual eradication of the concept of right and wrong are the belated objectives of nearly all Psychotherapy.”

Chisholm further stated that if they were to be successful they needed to infiltrate the professions to introduce their ideas (more correctly called “insanities”) there.

This year is the 76th anniversary of his speech. Looking around at the average intelligence level, morality, ethics and consequent problems with crime, drugs, sexual perversions etc. I’d say the psychiatrists were remarkably successful!

If we as parents and teachers do not instill in our children respect for one another, tolerance for differences, that there is right and wrong, the difference between right and wrong, that actions have consequences and that regardless of what has happened in the past one has the ultimate responsibility for the actions one takes in the present, then we are, by our neglect, cocreating a society where psychiatry’s evil intentions are widely manifest, as is happening at present.

To those interested in knowing from whence came this insanity here are a few articles you might find of interest.

Anthony Peluso wrote this and I thought it worth sharing with you…

There was a time when marriage was the most furthest thing from my mind. I could never see myself making this type of commitment. To me, it symbolised slowing down, compromising, getting comfortable, small thinking and giving up on those dreams I had as a kid. I couldn’t stay in a relationship for longer than a year or two as my appetite for life was a little too overwhelming for those around me.

Then I met this girl.

I walk into the office elevator on my first day. We both look at each other, smile and then … complete silence. That awkward few minutes where you’re the only ones in the elevator and I suddenly lose the ability to speak or move. I actually thought I was having a stroke, either that or my Jim Carrey moment, not sure which.

That’s when I first learnt the power of a smile.

That’s also the first time I experienced communication … without a word being spoken.

Fast forward 2023 and here we stand, celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary.

So what have I learnt in 25 years (and still learning)?

1. Marriage, with “the one” is the most fulfilling and most beautiful commitment.

2. Love can be overrated, but mostly misunderstood.

3. If ALL you have is love, you don’t have much (sorry Lennon/McCartney but you need a little more).

4. Admiration and Understanding are the bedrock and cornerstone of any great relationship.

5. Nothing moves you forward in the same direction as having your goals, purpose and mission … all aligned.

6. Trying to change your partner is simply a waste of time.

7. Changing you and becoming the best version of you is the greatest investment of time and money.

8. There’s no perfect marriage or relationship. Sometimes it’s a roller coaster and sometimes it’s a merry go round.

9. Kindness and affection are karma and also open every door.

10. Your partner can never make you happy. Only you hold the cards to this.

11. Distractions and temptations are an indication your purpose in life isn’t big enough.

12. Continuing to create the marriage and putting a future there is the greatest act of love.

13. The more people you can help together and cause an effect on, the greater the victory and reward for you both.

14. If a relationship robs either one of you of your potential, you’re with the wrong person.

15. Learn to look more and than you listen.

16. What you don’t say can cause more damage than what you do say.

17. Pay attention to who is around you when problems don’t seem to resolve.

18. Risks are always better than regrets.

19. Mistakes are inevitable. We’re humans being.

20. Paying attention and giving acknowledgements to your partner keeps you both in present time.

21. Never take your partner for granted. Wake up everyday like it’s day number one.

22. Always be willing to see the other persons view point and stand in their shoes.

23. There is no “marriage is 50/50”. It’s either 100% each or it’s zero.

24. No matter how great the relationship is, there is always a level above.

25. Communication to a relationship is what oxygen is to a body. You’ll soon enough die without it.

26. Hate is a wasted emotion. To love in spite of all is what got us to 25 years.

To my amazing Lisa-Marie,

I’ve been saying “I Do” for 25 years and kinda like the sound of that for another 25.

You’ve always been the better part of me.

You’ve been my greatest supporter, my greatest inspiration and my greatest love story.

If I wrote a book, you’d be in every line.

You’re my everything!

Thank you for being “the one” and getting in that elevator with me all those years ago.

According to an old Native American legend, one day there was a big fire in the forest. All the animals fled in terror in all directions, because it was a very violent fire.

Suddenly, the jaguar saw a hummingbird pass over his head, but in the opposite direction. The hummingbird flew towards the fire!

Whatever happened, he wouldn’t stop.

Moments later, the jaguar saw him pass again, this time in the same direction as the jaguar was walking. He could observe this coming and going, until he decided to ask the bird about it, because it seemed very bizarre behavior.

“What are you doing, hummingbird?” he asked.

“I am going to the lake,” he answered, “I drink water with my beak and throw it on the fire to extinguish it.”

The jaguar laughed. “Are you crazy? Do you really think that you can put out that big fire on your own with your very small beak?”

“No,” said the hummingbird, “I know I can’t. But the forest is my home. It feeds me, it shelters me and my family. I am very grateful for that. And I help the forest grow by pollinating its flowers. I am part of her and the forest is part of me. I know I can’t put out the fire, but I must do my part.”

At that moment, the forest spirits, who listened to the hummingbird, were moved by the birdie and its devotion to the forest. And miraculously they sent a torrential downpour, which put an end to the great fire.

The Native American grandmothers would occasionally tell this story to their grandchildren, then conclude with, “Do you want to attract miracles into your life? Do your part.”

“You have no responsibility to save the world or find the solutions to all problems—but to attend to your particular personal corner of the universe. As each person does that, the world saves itself.”
