A big hello to all of you out there! Another week and another topic, and this time I would like to talk a little about the Kardashian family. The Kardashians, merely a clan of harmless media attention junkies or rather a sophisticated and well- organized group of tricksters?- Who are these incredibly powerful people? A bunch of glamor- and glitz- seeking beaus who feel they deserve a permanent spot in the lime light of the US public media landscape? A six member strong money- making machinery with cleverly thought- out strategies as to take away from other people's fame and attention? Most likely a little of both, I would say. It is quite obvious that each of the infamous Kardashians seemingly magically flutters into the spot lights of public interest whenever there is a chance to even though their appearance is often entirely uncalled for. First, there is the mother, the head of the family, who just could not resist telling America on TV how promiscuous she turned out to be after her husband's passing. Seriously not interesting at all to hear that she did it multiple times in the elevator, in a staircase, and who knows wherever else. Really classy! Then her daughter, Kim, who announced her engagement with her latest fling Kris about the same time Prince William and Kate went on the air to let the world know about their engagement. Not enough, she even tried to top the wedding of the year with a ridiculously high- priced Hollywood like spectacle - which after only 72 days lost all of its pizazz after having found out that she had wed an allegedly gay man. Give me a break!
Then there is Rob, the sole rooster in the hen- house, who appeared on the show Dancing With The Stars  where he was pushed, pulled and carried through the competition week after week despite his lack of talent because the judges obviously feared the scorn of the Kardashian powerhouse.
What is more, Khloé's desire to have a baby took its full round through several tabloid magazines for weeks while Kourtney keeps overbearingly swaying in  marriage and motherhood.
Gee, the heat is on! How much more is coming our way, I wonder.

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...
