Do you listen to your heart?

It is great that so many people feel that they listening to their hearts! It is too bad, however that very few of us speak from our hearts. For if we did, we would be a part of a much different world/environment. We would no longer tolerate any woman, child or man being subjected to violence, be it emotional, physical, spiritual or mental. We would not tolerate people not having the available medicines to treat their diseases, we could end hunger. If we all spoke from our hearts we would be nourishing and protecting our environment. If we were connected to our hearts and speaking our truth as Women, this country, world, planet world, would look, feel, smell, BE different, than it is NOW. So it is great that so many are connecting to their hearts, now let’s take it to the next level and start speaking from our hearts, for this is the only way we will be heard, from a position of heart not EGO! Please do not confuse heart with Ego. Listening to your heart is a direct connection to your spirit/higher self, pure love. Listening to your head/Ego is fear, anger, anxiety, frustration, anticipation, guilt anything that does not come from a place of purity and love!

'wOw Friend' and Chef Ruth Rogers Invites Us into Her Kitchen

Just imagine how this type of cooperation would work throughout the world. Imagine Women across the world supporting each other to be the best they can be. Imagine Women in the North America, South America, Europe, Australia, Asia and Africa etc. speaking for those who are not able to be heard because they do not feel safe and secure to do so. Imagine women connecting and speaking for those who can not, what changes could our powerful voices impact, What would this world look like, would hungrier still exist, would brutally of women still be allowed, would disease still run ramped when we have the knowledge and the means to prevent or even eradicate it, and what message would this send our children? How would they feel about their Mothers and themselves, not only our daughters but our sons too? Just imagine a world where there was a balance, equal sharing, a state of cooperation, what would the world feel like, look like, sound like, taste like, Be like! A World where everyone was valued, respected and truly honored! Just like in the kitchen! Wow, that is my Wildest Dream

What do you consider to be the new seven deadly sins?

Sins is something that man/woman has invented to justify his/her own guilt and to judge others. I do not feel that a loving higher power would ever judge (ego) us or want us to feel guilt (ego). This is a tool that man/woman has invent to control the masses into believing that they are either good or bad (ego). As far as I am concerned their is only one rule we should live by, the Golden Rule, if we treated others as we wish to be treated, then what would the world, our cities, our communities, our neighborhood look like? If people learned how to serve and not judge, who would we be? LIFE PUROSE!

What do you consider to be the new seven deadly sins?

Maggi, You are so right, instead of sins, why do we Not talk about EGO. If you address and reduce the EGO, then there is no need for rules, restrictions and SIN! Then we are all coming from a place of Heart— love, compassion, and acceptance. We all need to STOP beating ourselves up with SIN and start giving ourselves and others an honest break! Just say no to Sin and YES to COMPASSION!

Privacy: Is It Yours for the Taking?

It is sad and amazing that we are all part of such a needy Universe. So many seem to get their needs met by their 15 minutes and/or by being a passive observer. The bottom line is until we start respecting, honoring and loving ourselves we will continue to met our own needs in unhealthy ways gossip, vanity, etc. which are all created by unmet needs, which in turn are driven by ego. We all know that it is so much easier to judge someone else’s life than our own. When people start paying attention to themselves, they will not need distractions from others. After all this is a single journey not a group effort! The question ” Privacy: is it yours for the taking?” only when we as a society decide to honor and respect ourselves and others!

Growing Up, I Was Bored 'Quite Often' ... Today, Nobody Is Bored

Our children are just a reflection of the times. How many times are you annoyed with someone on their cell phones, computers, texting, or etc. The issue is being disconnected to ourselves and each other on a deep meaningful level. Surfaceily we seem quite connected, but looking more carefully we rarely ever put our hearts and our true selves on the line. When children have cell phones at the age of 9 and younger, are more interested in playing with webkins, than playing with there friends and playing video games instead of connecting with nature, there is a problem! We as parents need to assume responsibility, not the children. Children are only doing what we as parents and society find acceptable. As long as it is acceptable that adults connect to others through cell phone, computers, etc., children will also find their acceptable ways to disconnect on a heart felt level. Boredom allows for children and adults to connect to themselves, on an heart felt/emotional level and explore their own imaginations, etc. I guess most of us chose not to be bored as this juncture in time. There are exceptions to this of course, but they are just that, exceptions.

A Princeton-trained physicist told ABC News this week that Global Warming is 'all bunk.' Do you believe in Global Warming?

Is it global warming or just the evolution of change occuring? The energy is changing, the old energy of control, domination, and manipulation is no longer need and is being replace by a nurturing, compassionate, loving energy. Which many believe the planet is changing or order to bring about balance, which has never been experienced! So call it global warming or being about balance to the planet. It is up to us to decide if we want to create a nurturing, caring and compassionate planet or one that remains dominate, controlling and manipulative. The question, is global warming taking place or not, is not what we should be asking, the true question is, what type of planet do you wish to be a part of???

What mythical figure do you most relate to? Ditto, historical figure?

Mythical— Maat the Goddess of Truth and Historically Mary Magdalene a strong Independent Woman who’s truth was drowned out by the dominate power.

If You Could Go Back in Time, Whose Life Would You Choose to Live?

I would want to be Mary Magdalene. To be in her position as a Strong independent Woman and to witness and be a part of such forward thinking ideas and movement would have been marvelous! My only wish would have been for indoor plumbing!

Ask Lesley: 'When I Hear a Lie'

I believe it is a matter of integrity. When you chose to live within your integrity your standards naturally rise too. Every time someone choses to lie, spin the truth, or bland the truth, they are dishonoring themselves. I chose not to live my life like this and I also chose to hear the truth/lie in someone else. I have compassion for that person because of the amount of EGO and Fear they are carry! As I say to my daughter is that the truth, or is that a story? The truth is always their if you listen with your heart

Diane von Furstenberg: 'Fear is Not an Option'

Fear is not an option, but for many we fall back into our old stories which prevent us from connecting to our true brilliance! If every Woman in the World lived by those few simple words this would be a different planet. Can you imagine if the world of Women connected to the hearts and spoke their truth. Where would the children be? Would there be War? Would there be poverty? Would we be part of a World driven by greed and EGO? What would be possible if we all connected to our hearts and spoke our truth? What impact could we as Women have on the planet? Interesting…

Chaos in Kenya: An Interview with Helen Epstein

I agree, the only way we are ever going to may a chance for respect and peace in this World. Is by Women connecting to their hearts and speaking their truth. Every Woman throughout the World wants to be loved, feel safe and secure. No matter where they live, the color of their skin, or their religious/non religious preference. Until we, as a World of Women stand up and speak our truth from the heart, there will always be conflict. Women who are in war torn areas, can not speak their truth for fear of reprisal, however Women in the US, Europe, Australia, and Asia and around the world can speak from the heart on behalf on these Women in Kenya and other areas. Let’s commit to raising the consciousness and let our voices ring out across the World!
