Attuned to Natural Rhythm
If you are angry, you will make people angry. If you are happy, you will make people happy. When I am angry, I can make other people angry. Yes, this is true. It’s the social web, but strangely when I feel rage, others remain unmoved. Why is that? Anger is emotion which usually clouds the feeling…

Natural Starting Path
Everyone tends to understand things best if they start in a particular way. They can take on any other point of view sure, but they will not understand it as well as they could if it had started on the right foot, started with the right path. My own reason for sudden shifts of mood…

Swearing is Natural
Traditionally, there is a difference between swearing and vulgarity, but just a quick back track… They now theorize that swearing reduces sensitivity to pain, because it brings up negative emotion and triggers the fight or flight response which speeds up the heart rate – one thing they detected – as well as dulling pain sensitivity.…

Reap in Natural Ways
There is no enemy in nature, and there is only an enemy in man because they fear the reaper. They fear the one who takes, who can take more and faster than they do. This displays ignorance. As much as it may seem the reaper is the ultimate power, the ultimate master of life, it…
