portraitSome people are destined, some for good and some for bad, but other people like myself are free radicals; we do not seem to fit anywhere but are needed everywhere. I see destiny all around me and I run at it like one runs at a mirror only to find myself. My obsession with destiny has defined my life, but I will not know what is true until it happens. I have studied all aspect of the Torah for forty years; I have morphed into a Hebrew scholar yet my autism prevents  me for remembering sounds therefore, though I can adroitly read Hebrew, I can not hear Hebrew and my pronunciation sucks.

Sometimes I feel like a cosmic joke but I do not believe I could have gotten where I have arrived nor understood what I have come to know if it had been any other way. God is a Jokerman. It seems like the only constant in my life is Bob Dylan. I live to hear his next record.

I began educating myself by reading classics while serving in the Navy during the Vietnam War. After returning to America in 1965, I hitchhiked 30,000 miles before finding my path five years later when I began my study of Torah. After marrying, I drove a truck in New York and then ran a print shop in Ann Arbor, Michigan. While I began my study of the Torah in Brooklyn, New York, it was not until I moved to Sfat, Israel, the place from where the Cabala originated 500 year ago, that I was able to embrace this secret knowledge.

After returning to America, I became a Tarot card reader and won a First Amendment decision for the right to provide Tarot readings in Woodstock, New York. A few years later, I moved back to my roots in California where I fell ill. Uncertain of the time I had left, I began to write. I called it The Dance of the Pig, a cosmological and historical history of the last 266,455,777 years according to the Cabala. It took three years to write five books but with each book, my condition continued to improve until I was completely restored. Soon after, I made San Francisco my permanent residence to pursue my literary goals.

Living with autism has enabled me to gain an understanding of the mysterious self as well as recognition and insights into other areas, specifically the Cabala. It is my belief that autism is a manifestation of a more spiritual being; a perspective I have begun to explore in my writing.

Most people enjoy thinking that they are making the right decision in regards to their love life or their job. Everyone wants to know that they are making the right choices. The only way to know that is to be able to look into the future to see how things are going to turn out. The problem is, most people cannot do that, so they look to psychics and people who are able to perform Tarot Card readings. The problem for tarot card readers is creating an environment that looks like a place people can trust in, so creating a tarot card table top that is smooth enough to not damage the cards is very important.

Why Tables Matter

Tarot Card TableTarot cards that are being used often can become worn. The colors are meant to stand out because if you cannot see the pictures; you could give a wrong prediction. Beyond that, who wants to visit a reader that has cards that are already worn out? They may question reliability. As a reader, you can impress more clients if the table top is beautiful. Having a shiny table top that isn’t dinged and dented will look better than even a solid wood table top. Therefore, as a reader, you may want to either constantly get a new table or think of a creative way to create a new one.

Designing the Perfect Table Top

Clear Tarot TableImagine a table that features stars and sparkly things, or you can add colorful areas on a wooden table top and paint splattered stars to keep it simpler. You can give a table the mystic look that most people associate with tarot card readings and abilities. You can have the table blend in with the atmosphere that you attempt to create in the reading room. Even with lowered lights, your table can sparkle, and you can create virtually any embedded theme that you want to create using only clear epoxy resin.

Epoxy is used to encapsulate items. This means you can create a table with little trinkets like small dragons or fairies inlayed into it. You can use plastic stars and moons, leaves, bright colors, and more on the table top and once you have put a coating of epoxy over it, it will be encased in the table top forever. The great thing is, you can use it to redo a refurbished, antique table that you fall in love with or use it as a way to give your old table a makeover. No one will ever know that it wasn’t some high-priced table that you purchased. If you do not want to put things in the tabletop, you can simply use colors. Splashes of purple, white, or pink with a little glitter thrown in will look great. You may also consider using a chrome paint to cover the table and then seal in the color. Either way, it will have depth and durability that most tables do not have and it will look great for many years to come.

We all need to care about our environment and preserve it for future generations. If we don’t, we could end up leaving nothing much for our future generations. Therefore, it is important that we start using eco-friendly devices to help our environment as much as possible. Especially when it comes to things that we use on a daily basis. Those little everyday life items are what will have the most impact on everything. Therefore, we think you should even consider looking at taking it one step further with an eco friendly approach to refrigeration.

Protecting the Environment

Environmentally Conscience Think about all of the items that we already use to help our environment. We have lightbulbs that last longer and shine brighter, we have hybrid cars, and recycling of all bottles, papers, devices, and more. There are clothes that are made from recycled fabrics, reusable stainless-steel drink bottles, dishwashers that steam and then reuses water, solar powered clocks, phone chargers, and even lawn mowers. We have a lot of things that can make life simpler and protects our environment without leaving us to feel as though we are living in the stone ages. Every single thing that you use will go toward helping our earth. Isn’t that something you can get into the idea of?

 

Putting Items to Good Use

When you are finished with an old cell phone and ready to upgrade, you do not need to throw your old phone into the trash can. Even if it is damaged, you can still find ways to put it into a little box and have it recycled. It may go to someone who needs a phone after it is cleared off and repaired or it may be broken down further and used in another phone all together. Instead of going to the convenience store and buying a new cup and drink daily on your way to work, why not get a reusable cup and find a store that allows you to fill your cup for a smaller fee. If you travel frequently, why not use a hybrid car to save on gas and a plug in ice chest that will minimize the use of and then wasted ice bags? These little changes can make a world of difference to others, even if you cannot personally see the improvement in your environment today.

 

Recycling To Save Environment

What Will You Do?

What steps have you taken toward living an eco-friendly life? Will you do other things to ensure that your future grandchildren have a healthy world to live in? A hundred years ago, no one cared what would happen to the world as time progressed. They weren’t really concerned 50 years ago. Today we know that we have an impact on our future. There are so many things that we can do today that it is unbelievable that there are still people who don’t try. All it takes is changing a light bulb or buying smarter. It may cost you a little more to start, but when you use those items for a longer period of time, you save money and help others. Why not do it?

 

Everyone knows that relaxation and calming experiences are the key to inner peace. That is why so many people choose meditation. It is a time when you do not have to actively think about anything. You can lose yourself in the quietest parts of your mind. Some people say that to meditate is to feel weightless, like you are floating along, totally relaxed. What if there was a way to make it easier for you to have that feeling? Would you enjoy it if you could do something that would give you the feeling of time travel?

The Thrill of Traveling Through Time

TimeTravellingWhen you are able to travel through time, you experience the weightlessness of it. It may seem as though you are in one place one minute and standing in another the next. It doesn’t have to be an extreme jump through time. It could be something as simple as leaving your home and immediately ending up at work or at the store. It could be leaving work and instantly going home. When you time travel, there is no feeling of walking. You don’t have to deal with traffic. You arrive at your destination by floating on a cloud.

It Is Possible to Achieve the Feeling of Time Travel

Self Balance Mini SegwayIf time travel feels like you are floating through the air, the first step is to find something that will make you feel as though you are doing it. The easiest way to gain that feeling is to take a trip on an electric standing scooter. They often operate at approximately 10mph and all you have to do is stand on it. You lean slightly forward to go forward, back to go into reverse, and tilt to one side if you need to turn. During the times that you are going straight, you will feel the wind on your face. You have no traffic to deal with, no real thoughts that you must keep up with. You simply relax and enjoy the trip that you are taking, relaxing and freeing your mind as you go.

Will You Take Advantage of a Scooter?

MiniscooterHow much will you enjoy floating to work or home? Will it help you to unwind at the end of a hectic day? Will it give you time to free your mind of all the troubles that you must deal with on a daily basis? It could give you a chance to forget your troubles and leave them behind for a little while. It could help you sort through the issues and see the silver lining that is easily within your reach. Isn’t that the point of spirituality? If all it takes to feel as though you can travel through time and space is a scooter, isn’t it worth it? There are a lot of scooter options available. They all offer special features such as Bluetooth connections and remote control riding. You can arrive at your destination without walking, peddling, driving, or stressing.

Since the days of cavemen writing on stones, the world has loved reading the printed word. All it takes is a glance throughout history and you will see that every culture, every generation, and through all walks of life there have been people who would write about the world around them. It is a trend that we all have experienced to some extent. However, the things we are reading now, exceed every possible idea that those before us may have had and it is all due to the internet and increasing technology.

NatGeoHow the Internet Changed Reading

Most people still remember waiting for the day that their most favorite magazine would be put into the grocery store every month. They remember waiting daily to get their newspapers delivered so that they could keep up with what was going on in the world around them. However, now we have other ways to read the same content and we do owe it to technology.

People no longer have to rush to the store to get their favorite magazines. You simply download it to your favorite digital reading device. Newspapers are still printed, but most people leave them in the newspaper stands because they can read more through their home computers, smart phones, or tablets. Businesses send out less fliers per year and opt to target certain people with advertising that is specific to their desires. We owe it to the digital media that we have available today. It simply makes reading more exciting.

The Rise of Digital Media 

Digital media content has allowed writers to write and publish their work online. Their writing can include graphics, videos, and more. These things excite the reader and add more to the content that is available. It gives all readers a chance to feel more regarding the articles or stories that they may be reading.

It has also brought to life the Kawaii Emoticons that everyone loves. These simple graphics give more emotion to the typed word. They allow the writer to give a visual clue as to how they feel while writing. For instance, if the topic they are writing about making them sad, they may put in a teary emoticon to express their feelings. If the author is joking with his readers, he may be able to put funny emoticons at the end of his comment. This smiley may be a static face that does not move or it could be an animated smiley that depicts him busting out in laughter. Either way, his target audience will get a clear idea of what the writer is trying to express. If you still are confused about these characters check out a site like http://kawaiiemoticons.com to get an idea of just how far these emoticons have come.

Where Will the Future of Digital Media Take Us?

It is difficult to determine at this time, where the future of digital media will take us. We already have tablets that can be used on an arm and TVs that double as tablets. The internet and the world are at our fingertips. Wherever digital media takes us, it will be something that is beyond what we can picture in our minds today.

Finding the age-appropriate clothes can be tough. Nearly 50% of women experience difficulties in looking for perfect clothes to match their age and personality. Nevertheless, there are still those who wear their own personal style with ease and confidence. And the most challenging part is on how to trim off those unsightly fat curves as one age.

Healthy diet, exercise programs, weight-loss shakes, diet pills, there’s so much more that the market can offer. Sometimes, it’s so frustrating to wait endlessly for results. Nothing seems to work like magic. After all, you’ve accumulated those fats in years. It doesn’t go away overnight unless you submit yourself to cosmetic surgery. In fact, even surgeries don’t work on removing unsightly fats that really soon. Most often than not, we are less diligent and impatient to do the weight-loss stuff. So, while working on the best program, take note of these fun-to-know fashion secrets to cover up fats and look thinner.

Hook up with the Body Shapers and Slimmer

Do you want something that really works in an instant? The bodysuit shapers can do the trick. There are vast choices of body shapers such as full body suit, high waist panties, leg shapers, slip shape wear, tummy shaper and high waist long leg style. Body shapers were used in the early 1800s in a form of corsets – although, corsets do exist today. The first body shapers have laces, cords and hooks. But these days, the designs are more sophisticated with the most comfortable fabric aimed towards ease and convenience.

With compression technique, the body shapers enhance the body doing its work on thighs, waist or the abdominal portion. Pick the right piece which offer slenderizing effect enhancing your overall shape. If you want to start your own fashion blog, make sure you look good. Bodysuit shapers define your waist, butt and thighs evenly distributing the bulges. Indeed, it gives a very promising result to shave off inches of fats in an instant.

Fitness and Style: Know your Body Built

No similar clothes work the same. Yes, because logically, individuals differ in symmetrical proportion. The secret is looking into your body built and applying harmony and balance by choosing the right clothes.

Bulky Upper extremities: You look pretty gorgeous with that 38 cap C boobies yet you don’t own the best bumpy butt. In this case, you need to invest in choosing good brassieres. Try not to wear skinny jeans or hug-fitting pants which will make your legs look lean. Pick dark colored tops with light skirts. You may like to go for shirts that may emphasize your bust hugging towards the waist line paired with A-line skirt that falls an inch below the knee.

Large Bumps: Imagine an avocado fruit. Are you a woman with large bumps that do not really match with your bust line? Why don’t you try butt and thigh trimmers? Avoid wearing long sweaters over hug-fitting jeans since it would make you look short. Pick a ¾ length coat instead in order to bring balance. An A-line skirt also suits this kind of body shape.

The Belly Bottoms: Almost majority’s problem. Accumulating fats near the belly is certainly annoying. If you love to try the trendy skinny jeans, think again. It would push the lump on your tummy making it even larger. Stay away from fitting shirts as well but don’t use very loose shirts either. Go for high rise jeans to balance the bulk at the middle fitting fairly well with the crotch. Just make sure that you are comfortable.

Doesn’t it always seem like however you start your day out determines how the rest of the day goes? For example, if you oversleep in the morning making you late for work that just sets the mood for how the rest of the day is going to go. They say that is because the negative energy you put off from the get-go is sent out into the universe and that is what is attracted to you for the rest of the day. If you have read the book or watched the movie, The Secret, then you already know what I’m talking about: the Law of Attraction. Some people think this notion is silly, however, I feel like it makes perfect sense. If you are already angry or upset, chances are you aren’t going to be so friendly to those you encounter throughout the day which means you are more likely to be treated negatively in return. If you woke up and found a $20 bill in your pocket, you are likely to be in a cheerful state, therefore sending positive vibes and a happy demeanor to those around you. In return, you will likely have more positive encounters throughout the day. Smiling is contagious after all, right?

If this theory is true and you are in control of whether each day is going to be a good one or a bad one, why not make them all good ones? If you start each day out right with a positive attitude and you continue to send positive energy out into the universe, maybe every day can be a great one. Check out some of the following tips for starting every day out on the right foot, or waking up on the “right” side of the bed:

  • •Prepare for each day the evening before: pick out your clothes, iron them, pack your lunch, etc.
  • •Set your alarm to go off early and allow yourself time to snooze. For me there is nothing worse than oversleeping and having to jump out of bed and rush to get ready. Allow yourself time to stay in bed a little longer if you need those extra few minutes. You might also consider setting a back up alarm on a battery operated device for those unfortunate times when the power goes out in the middle of the night.
  • •Tack on an extra 15 minutes of “getting ready” time just in case something in your morning goes awry – you spill coffee on your shirt and have to change, you forgot to iron a certain blouse, or forgot to pack your lunch the night before. This will help to keep you on-time for work.
  • •Set your alarm to one of your favorite songs, particularly a cheerful song. Waking up to Natasha Bedingfield’s Pocket Full of Sunshine is likely to put you in a better mood than the world’s loudest and most annoying alarm tone.
  • •Shower in the morning. This is something I never used to do but I have found it to work wonders. I always preferred to shower at night and use those few extra minutes to sleep in longer in the mornings; however, taking a hot shower in the morning is really the best cup of coffee. It helps to wake you up and feel refreshed, ready to take on the day.
  • •Invest in a shower radio. Blaring some of your favorite jams or listening your favorite talk show in the mornings while you get ready will also help to wake you up and leave you with a positive attitude.
  • •Eat a little something for breakfast. You never know what the day ahead of you will behold. You might be slammed with work and have to skip your lunch and having an empty stomach can turn any great day into a bad one. Get a little something in your tummy while you have time and before you head out for the day. This will also give you that boost of fuel to get your day going.
  • •Exercise in the morning. This is one of the hardest things to do for most people, but this might be the very best thing you can do for yourself. “Exercising releases endorphins – endorphins make you happy”. This might be a line you’ve heard from Reese Witherspoon in Legally Blonde, but it is actually 100% true. Exercise does release chemicals in your body that boost positive feelings, which is why exercise is a great treatment in the fight against depression. Starting your day off with a workout will not only wake you up and start your day with a positive outlook, but it will also make you feel accomplished first thing which will likely motivate you to tackle the rest of the day’s tasks ahead.

These are just a few examples of ways to ensure you start your day on a positive note that will likely carry with you through the rest of the day. Even in the event that you do wake up on the “wrong” side of the bed, or oversleep, don’t let those emotions bring you down and ruin the rest of your day. Focus on changing your attitude for the better and tell yourself that you can overcome that one thing and still have a great day. After all, the Law of Attraction leaves the control in your hands. It’s up to you to change how you feel.
