Carl Jung
I live in the moment. Fully in the moment, not worrying about the next day or thinking about the past day. So there are certain techniques that one learns. I thoroughly enjoy life. I enjoy what I am doing, and I know that I am guided step by step, and all that needs to happen, happens.

There was only peace and a simple acceptance of the rightness of each moment spent in attunement with God.
By Richard WilliamsAmerican Gold is a book full of poetry, a book of history, the story of a place as it changes through fifty-eight years, the history of the shaping of a sensibility. It is not quite a novel. But it is a book worth having.

By Peter CaddyThe world’s hungry people are being thrown into ever more direct competition with the well-fed and the over-fed. The fact that something is grown near your home in abundance, or that your country’s natural and financial resources were consumed in producing it, or even that you yourself toiled to grow it will no longer mean that you will be likely to eat it.
By Alice Ammerman,Frances Moore Lappé,Joseph Collins,Cary FowlerA JAKE scream is the best. It can probably out/decibel a primal scream any day of the week, and has the added advantage of surprise attack, giving it increased sincerity. You don’t know you’re going somewhere special to scream. It is convenient, occurring in the ordinary workings of daily life.
By Cheryl SchillingWith regards to changing the title from “That Very Special Romance” to “A Romance” I must raise the following objections and make the following suggestions. 1.
