May I introduce myself ...

Hi, my name is Marion. I am originally from Austria, Europe and have been living here in New England for five and a half years ever since I got acquainted and subsequently wed to my sweet husband. I speak a few languages, and have always kept my ear on the ground as to what is going on around me politically, socially, economically, and most of all psychologically no matter where I am
as I feel it is of magnificient importance to stay updated at least on the surface of major matters which simply make or break a country's society. Sure, I am not in the position whatsoever to bring changes upon this or that people, but I should at least be able to express my free opinion about what bothers the heck out of me and hopefully others too.
The reason why I wanted to start blogging is that I simply do no longer want to just sit around idle and keep accepting and excusing certain occurrencs, events, trends, situations, developments, and facts because everybody here and elsewhere throughout the western world is supposed to nod in approval and swallow the bitter pill over and over again. Hence the name of my blog, BASTA! Enough is enough!
I am planning to publish one post per week on a specific topic and would welcome your responses as long as they are kept on a neutral and non- aggressive base. I am fully aware that you may not always agree to what I feel like saying and challenge you to set the ground for debates, but please refrain from hatefully replying out of anger, misunderstanding, disagreement or just no reason at all.
I am going to start the first week of 2012. Until then, have a Merry Christmas and a great New Year's Eve! Talk to you soon.

    Hi, Marion

    I understand your frustration, as a contractor I have to listen to many horror stories from innocent home owners throughout the day.Regulation should be required but on the other hand this is still a free country.... if we have to much government well then we will have to pay them as well to exchange the locks , not going to happen ... it is buyer beware !! I believe that in todays society there is no excuse for stupid ..there are multiple help pages and warnings as well as T.V. Shows to help every day .. No need for anybody to be a victim .
    I do thou appreciate the fact that there is someone like yourself willing to speak up and at least try to help those who obviously does not do there research and end up the victim....
    Please keep posting your blog as I will check in and leave my comments as well

    Good luck

    William / Ny

Buy small and local   Hi everybody! - Coming from a tiny country like Austria, one might assume that globalisation is just a phenomenon tailored for larger nations, but no, it has also been affecting us all across Europe. Globalisation itself is of complex nature, and even though I'm not planning to write about globalisation per se today, it somehow dictates our overall shopping behavior by bringing in more and more big box chain stores worldwide which sets the general trend for methodically and eventually putting local small family- run as well as individualists' shops out of business. In the 70ies I remember mom and dad taking us along to a wide range of stores from the baker to the butcher, the grocer's, the florist, the hard ware place, the electrician, the tobacco store, etc. What great memories our weekly trips to the market created for us. There we would hand- pick fresh fruit, produce, and other delicacies. Sometimes we would even get a piece of fruit or a carrot fo...

The Evolution Of The Soul

The Evolution Of The Soul   - Welcome back to my blog! - Today I'd like to focus on the various levels of souls and their different interim steps, respectively. Altogether there are reportedly 35 different steps, 7 per level of which there are 5. Each single step requires at least one whole lifetime to complete, but since several incarnations end prematurely, are terminated too early or are spent in non- physical states, it does in fact take much longer than that to run through all those steps. Running through, I guess, is a poor choice of words in this context as the entire process definitely resembles more of a gradual growth rather than a speedy race, and so it takes well over a hundred lifetimes and spans over thousands of years at best. Just for the (spiritual) records, the soul's existence between lifetimes - periods that usually also take up some time typically used for the soul to return home, its latest life review, being healed and taught, choosing a new life, prepari...

Jung, Dumm Und Gelangweilt   - Ein herzliches Hallo an alle! - "Äffe nach, was du siehst", fällt mir augenblicklich dazu ein, wenn ich an den neuesten Trend denke, der gerade wieder einmal das Internet unsicher macht. Die Rede ist hierbei von der sogenannten "Zimt- Herausforderung". Alles klar? Das soll eine Herausforderung sein. Zweifelsohne richtet sich diese dümmliche Probe an junge Menschen, um genau zu sein, an Kinder und Teenager. Wieder einmal setzt unsere Jugend wegen einer doofen Mutprobe ihre wertvolle Gesundheit achtlos aufs Spiel. Diese Mal wiegt der Gruppenzwang schwer, sich idiotischer Weise darauf einzulassen, einen gehäuften Löffel an Zimtpulver ohne jegliche Flüssigkeit hinunter zu schlucken. Warum erstaunt es mich kein bisschen, dass sich Berichte wie "Mission Unvollständig" oder "Mission Unmöglich" häufen, sprich zahllose dumme Anhänger hinterher in Spitalspflege aufgenommen werden müssen? Jedes Kind sollte bereits im Kindergar...
