Good Morning to all of you here, and Hello to everyone overseas! A current incident, which took place a few weeks ago, put my priority list of topics upside down, consequently I have decided to talk about Sex- Offenders today, and how they are handled by the American society respectively.

First of all, let me briefly refer to what aired the news just a couple of days ago. Back in December the governor of Arkansas released 360 allegedly light- weight convicts of a State Penitentiary in an act of clemency. Among those lucky ex- jail birds are several sex- offenders whose records were promised to be cleared entirely due to the pardon. What for, I wonder? To inconspicuously re- include them into society? Someone please tell me that this is nothing but a bad joke! Bluntly speaking, sex- offenders must be ex- and secluded from society forever not just temporarily! Just a few weeks back I learnt on the news about a nine- year old girl from Indiana who had gone missing and had later been found dead -beaten to death with a brick by her baby- sitter, a sex- offender! This death was entirely useless and unnecessary! What is even sadder though, society doesn't seem to learn from a tragedy like this.
After all, this sort of fate is unfortunately still shared by way too many innocent kids throughout the US. As a matter of fact, sex- offenders are an ever dangerous species that will premeditate, prey and repeat their crimes once served further opportunities on a silver platter as soon as included back in society. Many times, it seems, people are either too careless or generally just too positive about the nature of this sort of beast. Who in their right mind leaves their off- springs in the temporary care of a male stranger - who might easily turn out to be a sex- offender? On the other hand, we by nature put our trust in the hands of those who run the system, who are supposed to protect us from that kind of bad guys. Often times we are not directly to be blamed for gruesome happenings of that sort because we apparently just don't know any better. It is the authorities' job to clearly mark and monitor those criminals, however, they should no longer be embedded in our communities! How stupid is this?
It is Halloween, and registered sex- offenders are ordered by law to keep their lights turned off and to keep their doors shut and locked as not to endanger the welfare of all those many kids going from door to door to Trick or Treat. This to me is just like dragging meat in front of a hungry pride of lions and not anticipating that they will instinctively grab it! Please, share your opinion with me! I am curious as what you think of this.

Seelenpartner, Zwillingsseelen, ... Alles Aus Einer Einzigen Seele (II)

Seelenpartner, Zwillingsseelen, ... Alles Aus Einer Einzigen Seele (II)   - Die Dauer unserer Zusammenkünfte mit anderen Seelen mag von einigen Minuten bis hin zu einer Stunde, einem Tag, einer Dekade oder sogar darüber hinaus variieren. Das zeichnet uns grundsätzlich alle aus. Beziehungen lassen sich niemals zeitlich messen sondern vielmehr in geteilten wie gegenseitig beigebrachten Lebenslektionen und kommen durchaus auch zwischen Seelengefährten, Zwillings- und rein theoretisch auch unter Parallelseelen vor. Letztere aber treffen recht unwahrscheinlich zur selben Zeit zusammen. - Lasst mich zuerst auf das Konzept der Zwillingsseelen, Zwillingsflammen oder auch Zwillingsstrahlen eingehen. Kurz zusammengefasst, handelt es sich hierbei um zwei Hälften EIN und DERSELBEN Seele, die zu Anbeginn der Zeit in absolut harmonischer Koexistenz lebten. Selbst als wir uns als Seelen von DER Quelle an sich abspalteten, um uns letztendlich zu individualisieren, waren wir unverändert eins. Jede ...
College or no college - That's the question    Now the time is here again for high school graduates to venture off to college and university. I still, to this day, remember being thrilled and overly excited to start as a fresh(wo)man in a new place where studying would go hand in glove with partying for the next few years. I love to see every one's kids swarm out and flock together in college districts and on student campus terrains. Most teenagers get accepted somewhere even though often at second or third choice sites, but they will all have to face one and the same question which is, at what price? Unless you are granted a scholarship, three years and plus of college education costs you an arm and a leg, and if you keep going for more profound specialization, you will be in debts up your neck by the time you have got your PhD. Then what? Go and spit out job applications like a ball machine hoping that someone is going to hire you - unless of course you were lucky eno...
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...
