Hello back to a new week and a new post. Today I would like to focus on the topic THE INTERNET.
The Internet reminds me of the two sides of a coin or rather - due to the universal law of polarity-  of the wise statement, where there is light, there is darkness and vice verse. Really there is just no point in trying to blend out either side as with everything else in life that rules our physical world and thus our ways of thinking, nothing exists without their antagonists. So it is entirely up to us human beings what to make of the Internet. I fully approve and agree that in case certain harmful or shoddy sites are sought repeatedly, this should be monitored, investigated and prosecuted, but one should not have to break out in a cold sweat fearing the conquistador tribunal squad showing up on your threshold just because you accidentally open a forbidden page as a result of a stupid typo.
On the other hand, what is the Internet police good for if they cannot even track down and sort out the bad apples that intentionally publish the lowest of crap to begin with? How come I have to provide all possible personal data if I want to open a simple Face Book account, but the bad guys keep an incredibly invisible profile while putting on child porn, war, hatred and other disgusting sites just like that a n d on top manage to stay anonymous? For God's sake, there's got to be a way to somehow control what is put out there into the World Wide Web by whom, when and where exactly. Apparently not yet which means that in the meantime we adults should see it as our legacy to younger generations and teach them how to deal with the Internet in a reasonable, responsible and constructive way - provided of course, we the teachers know right from wrong ourselves and practice what we preach.
And yes, it does not hurt to keep an eye on our kids with respect how they utilize the Internet, which if used correctly can be a lot of fun and give you a hoot of a time exploring thousands of things you would otherwise not be able to access in such a fast and uncomplicated fashion. Have a great week and talk to you next time again!

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...
