I could feel it stirring in me. Pulsing stronger and stronger. I wanted it more than I had ever wanted anything before. I desired it. I craved it. All I had to do was to reach out and grab it when no one was looking.

I was ten years old, and it was the most beautiful, powerful yellow water pistol I had ever seen in my whole life. I tried to tell myself that the toy storeowner would never miss it, but I knew better. I tried to tell myself that I would come back some day and pay for it. The price tag said it was only $3.98. Maybe I could save that much from my allowance, but I knew I wouldn’t.

I just took it anyway. I jammed it into my book bag. I gave into my desire. I could feel the drumbeat in my head saying, tom, tom; you’re a bad boy. Tom, tom, you’re a bad boy.


I ran almost all of the way home. The fear and the guilt was really getting to me. Later that evening I lay in my bed wondering what to do. That drumbeat just kept going on and on in my head. I think I can still feel it now; that tom, tom beat of desire and guilt all mixed together.

When I woke up in the morning, I ran out into the back yard and buried my beautiful water pistol in a little hole I dug, and then covered it up with dirt so no one would ever discover that I was a sinner. I never got to enjoy that water pistol, and I never got over feeling guilty about taking it. There are some drumbeats of conscience that don’t go away.

I am all grown up now some people would say. And when the dreaded tom, tom beat of desire grabs hold of me for one reason or another, I remember my toy water pistol. I remember how guilty I felt. I have learned to control my emotions most of the time, but not to quell them. There is so much more I want to learn and to do, but it has to be the right way.

If only I knew what was all right to do. If only those dreaded drumbeats would go away. For now I think I have things under control, but nobody knows when the drumbeats of desire will hit again. Nobody knows how he or she will react. Is any one ever really in control, or is God the only one that is truly in control.

As we enter this season of new beginnings, can you honestly say that you can control your emotions, passions and desires? You may be marching to a different drumbeat than I, but there are still things you want and desire, aren’t there? How do you know when it is all right to reach out and grab them?

I think the best way to decide what is right from what is wrong is to ask yourself, “What would God want me to do?”

If you have enough faith I am sure you will come up with the right answer. Enjoy the holidays. The best is yet to come. It’s going to give all of us sinners the opportunity for a new beginning.

The Troubled Little Geese Of Christmas

One little Goose turned to another as they sat near the edge of a golf course that was covered in a half an inch of fresh snow and said, “My friend we should have gone South before it became so cold. I am afraid our wings will freeze up if we try and make the trip now.”

The other little Goose responded, “And do you expect a less icy reception in the South. Everybody hates us. We are welcome nowhere.”

“Why is that asked Goose number 1”?

“I think it is because there are too many of us, and we create a mess wherever we go. Besides people think of us as just Geese who don’t count for much,” answered Goose number 2.

"But I thought that in the spirit of Christmas people would be more willing to look kindly on the least amongst us”?

“I know, I know, but life is not always what it is supposed to be. We will have to learn to accept our circumstance with grace and good will to all at this holiday season.”

“I find it hard to accept our lot in life as it is. I don’t believe that this is the way God would want things to be. He is full of kindness and mercy. Perhaps if we pray to Him he will hear our prayers and help others to understand our plight.”

“I hope so my friend. My tail feathers are starting to freeze. I am afraid of what will happen to us in the future. We have no food. There is no one who wants to help us. We disturb there celebrating, impose on their happy times and impinge on their holiday spirit.”

“I believe it won’t always be like this my friend. One day people will be full of the goodness that God designed them to have. Then even little Geese like us will have a place in this society. Then even we will be able to find some happiness for our families and some sense of security. Then even us poor little Geese will not be discriminated against especially at this time of giving and kindness that represents the true spirit of Christmas.”

“Are there other groups such as us that are discriminated against even at Christmas time”?

“Yes there are, but most of them are human.”

“Do you think people will ever understand that we have feelings too”?

“I think they will soon. I think that as soon as the spirit of Christmas spreads its wings of joy over all of God’s people that they will begin to recognize that even little Geese or any other minority group have their place in God’s Kingdom, for in caring about them we can become more than we were. We can become what God intended us to be.

Have a very happy Christmas Holiday, and please don’t forget all the little Geese amongst us; they come in so many different types and shapes that sometimes it is hard to remember that they have feelings.

How To Cope With Fires And Terrorism

HAVE YOU FOUND YOUR FAITH?


Do you have enough faith in God to help you cope with the troubles of our time?

Are you a good and worthwhile person who is entitled to find God’s grace?

When was the last time you prayed to God for the peace of mind to make you feel secure?

Today we are bombarded by natural disasters and acts of terrorism. How can we hope to cope with the insecurity of our time if we don’t have faith in God and in His goodness and mercy?

I’m not talking about the faith that we salve ourselves with by going to a Church or Mosque or Temple. I am talking about the true feelings of your heart and mind.

Are you really a person of faith?

Do you practice what is preached to you?

Are you kind and caring to other people?

Do you truly love your fellow man?

Are you willing to accept your neighbors right to believe in God in his or her own way?

It is only by answering these questions positively that we can hope to become people of faith.

It is only by trusting in God and trying to be kind and caring that we can hope to find and nourish our faith.

When we begin to have faith in God we will start to find the peace of mind we strive for. We will begin to feel the state of bliss that a true Person of Faith has. We will begin to learn how to cope with the troubles of the time we live in. We will begin to feel secure.

Are you ready to find your faith and feel wonderful?

Are you ready to have faith in God?

Hurry, God may be waiting to hear from you.

Johnny Oops – In The Beginning

Are you wondering how you got here, don’t worry, so am I. I guess the fine hand of my author has his presence branded in my mind, but I don’t care because it is my imagination that is going to take us where we are going.

I am not about to tell you too much about my character in my novel, because I don’t want you to know too much about it until it is published. All I remember is that I started off as a gangly twelve year old boy who kept banging into things, thus the nickname Oops, and spent way to much time in the bathroom doing what twelve year old boys do until I grew up and became a womanizer. I will leave the rest to your imagination. You do have one, don’t you? You do know what I’m talking about, don’t you?

Do any of us really know what we are doing or where we are going? I don’t have a clue until I start to write. Then the path well trodden in my imagination takes hold of me and I am propelled into a new reality that constantly changes with different hues of emotion and feeling. Isn’t it wonderful? It colors my judgment. It makes me feel fulfilled. Maybe that will happen to you. All you have to do is use your imagination. I know. I am the messenger, and I have the ‘word’. You can rely on what I have to say. Count on it.

Let’s get one thing straight. I am only revealing my innermost thoughts to you because I want to get published. That’s right, I want someone to hear my words of wisdom and publish my novel, Johnny Oops. Can anyone hear me?

Check out my blog. That’s where the real action is about to take place. Something really weird is about to happen to me. I wish I knew what it was.

Now may be the time to develop a second income and avoid some of the financial insecurities that come with a credit crunch, falling home prices, and a volatile stock market.

We can’t control the markets, but we can plan for the future by developing a second income that will make us more secure and less vulnerable to economic events that we can’t control.

I know that some of you have been thinking along theses lines, but have held off developing a second income because you are worried that you don’t have enough time, don’t know what to do, don’t have money to invest in starting a business, and fear you lack the skills to start your own business as a sideline working from home on the Internet.

Don’t let these phantom fears keep you from finding the income security you are entitled to. Have a little faith in yourself and your unique abilities. There are a number of things you can do on the Internet that cost practically nothing, or are free. You can get started with little or no investment depending on what you want to do.

If you feel you have experience and are interested in letting people know about a particular product or service or want to sell them information, you can get your own Website set up for free that requires only a small monthly maintenance fee, which can provide you with the opportunity to promote your own product or service while enjoying multiple pre programmed sources of income.

If you don’t have a particular expertise, you can still develop a substantial second income absolutely free by setting up your own shopping mall on the Internet and inviting others to join you. You earn money on every on line purchase you make on your own shopping mall, and you get an override on all the purchases the people you invited to join you make on their own shopping malls. You do enjoy shopping, don’t you?

Either way, it’s a win, win situation. You may actually reach the point where the second income you develop becomes large enough for you to stop working at your regular job, and you can do all this from the comfort of your own home at little or no cost, depending on which work at home opportunity you choose. Don’t miss this opportunity to develop a second income, and become more secure. Don’t miss this opportunity to secure a brighter future for yourself and your loved ones. Develop a second income.

Shocking Expose About Working At Home


It has recently come to our attention that some people are actually working at home because they want to. That’s right it isn’t necessarily that Moms or Dads have to care for children, but rather an educated choice that many people are making to:

1. Avoid long commutes
2. Have more free time
3. Set their own schedule
4. Be their own Boss
5. Exercise your life balance options
6. Show your creative side
7. Make more money


In some cases men and women have found work at home opportunities that fit in better with their special interests and likes. They have carved out their own niche on the Internet doing and talking about what they are interested in. Many of these people have become known as experts in their niche market of choice. And many of them have created a loyal following who seek out their knowledge on a particular topic and or buy products related to their special are of expertise.

It isn’t often that you can do what you like, work at home, and make money doing so at the same time, but with careful scrutiny of the work at home opportunities available, one can do it. You have to follow your instincts, and you have to research your niche market thoroughly.

Many people are stopped from proceeding at this point because they feel they lack sufficient knowledge to develop their own Website or don’t want to spend the money to have professionals design their Website and or serve as Web Masters on an on going basis. But there is a way to have your own Web site and have it maintained without the major expenses involved.

All you really need is the ability to develop the content you feel is relevant to your niche market. You will have to let people know why they should be interested in a particular subject or the various related products.

You will have to let people know what makes you an expert in your chosen field. And most important you will need to learn how to draw interested people or traffic to your Web site. If no one knows your Web site is there, you can’t make any money from it no matter how brilliant your ideas are. But don’t worry, there are many ways to draw traffic to your Web site, and many of them are free. All you really need is the right Website set up and an affiliation with the right Company that can help make your dreams come true.

You might be shocked to discover how easy it is to get started with your own work at home money making opportunity. All you really need is a little faith in yourself.

SAve On Gas: Shop On Line

Save On Gas: Shop On Line

With today’s sky hi gas prices it pays to stay home and shop on line. The cost of filling your tank to drive out to a discount mall can offset most or all of the saving you might obtain.

People should stop and consider that almost everything they are interested in buying from fashion to staples is available on line at prices that for the most part are the same or better then what you are paying when you drive to a store.

Keep in mind that often shipping is free and delivery can generally be had on most items in 24 to 48 hours. In some cases you save on taxes. Don’t forget the pleasure of not being hassled by crowds or looking for a place to park.

It used to be that shopping at home appealed mostly to young people in their twenties and thirties, but today more and more baby boomers are opting for the convenience and cost savings available by shopping at home.

The work at home generation consisting of all ages is also discovering the benefits of shopping at home as are office workers too busy to take time out of their schedule to get in a car and drive to a store after a hard days work in search of something that they might or might not find.

At least when you shop on line you stand the best chance of finding exactly what you are looking for at the price you know is the lowest available. You can comparison shop from on line store to on line store. You are not going to spend the time or waste the gas driving from store to store to find the best price.

Shopping My Way To A Small Fortune

I didn’t think it was possible, and then it started happening. I was actually making money shopping on line and helping others learn how to make money shopping on line.

It all started innocently enough. I was looking for a way to make a substantial income working from home. I was trying to analyze what I was good at when a friend asked me if I ever did any shopping on line?

I told him I did and he proceeded to tell me that I could make a lot of money doing what I was doing anyway, which was shopping for various things on line.

I started to think about it, most of my purchases were for my computer or home office, but my wife was buying all kinds of things on line from jewelry to cloths. I asked my friend how I could make money doing what myself and my family was already doing.

He explained to me that I could get my own shopping mall for free with over 1100 stores and discount chains and get a rebate for everything we bought on line. It gets even better. He told me I could invite other people to have there own absolutely free shopping mall on line and get an override on every dollar that they spent shopping on their own shopping malls. He told me that people could make $4000 - $6000 a month doing this and in some cases much more.

I still couldn’t believe it and asked him if this was MLM or affiliate marketing. He assured me it wasn’t; that this was something brand new. That I wasn’t selling anything to any one and that all I or the people I invited to join had to do was our normal shopping on line, but this time directing it to our own shopping malls.
I still had one question left. I asked him how the pricing was on the products for sale. He told me it was as good and in many cases better because the Company with the shopping malls was in effect doing the advertising for the stores and with the volume they generated they got good pricing and a rebate on top of that. Then he told me that the Company was in partnership in this venture with outfits like Sears, Home Depot, Target, Macy’s and hundreds more.


I asked myself, how could I lose? It sounded like a win, win situation so I joined. And I invite you to have your own shopping mall at absolutely no cost ever and start to make a small fortune yourself.

Dollar Plunge Causes International Shopping Frenzy

Canadians, Asians, Europeans, and people from the Middle East are flocking to the United States to take advantage of favorable current exchange rates between their currencies and the American dollar, which is trading at its lowest rate since 1995.

The Euro, the Yen, the Pound Sterling are all showing dramatic advances over the U.S. dollar, some averaging in excess of 35%.

In this type of environment it is only natural that people and Companies are taking advantage of the situation by making major investments in the United States, and that foreigners are in a shopping frenzy to buy American goods.

An Israeli company recently purchased the Plaza Hotel in New York City and is turning it into Condos. Major Middle Eastern countries are gobbling up prime real estate at an unbelievable rate, and foreign investors have increased their investments in the U.S. Stock markets because in terms of their currencies, purchases of U.S. securities look like a relatively cheap bet.

New York City is inundated with Europeans and other foreigners looking for shopping bargains. They can buy quality retail goods much cheaper than in their own countries because the U.S. dollar is so cheap in terms of their exchange rates. An average hotel in New York City is now leasing for $800 a day, and there are few to be had.

All of this provides a wonderful platform for a shopping mall operation that has been smart enough to go International. With more than 1100 stores, it is in the process of converting its Website to a customer friendly multi lingual format and inviting people internationally to own their own shopping malls at no cost. So far people from more than 95 nations have joined.

Now Americans can take advantage of this trend towards globalization by facilitating a Buy America policy to take advantage of the decline in the value of the dollar. That’s why many people are flocking to New York to go shopping.

Why not give those people who are not able for one reason or another to shop in the United States, or don’t want to pay $800 for a hotel room, the opportunity to take advantage of great currency related bargains and make money at the same time. Why not invite them to have their own no cost shopping mall, which they can enjoy from the comfort of their own homes, by inviting them to join My Power Mall.

It isn’t often that one gets the chance to provide a real benefit to family, friends, and even complete strangers. That’s why this program is so infectious and is taking the Internet by storm.

What is the secret ingredient that is propelling this wealth accumulation virus from one person to another? What makes it so contagious? Why do so many people clamor to join this new program once they are invited?

This is the Sister Company to Shop For Charity and Together We Can Change the World, which has led major charitable fund raising efforts on the Internet.

The Company even has a Hot Alert team that is constantly searching for the best bargains and prices for you on individual products on your mall. The mall prices are the same or better than others because the Company pays for the advertising to get people to the store and can capitalize on the volume it provides to many chains.

Work At Home Dads: Are You Getting Rich?

The Chances are that if you are reading this article, you are not quite there yet, but would like to be. The good news is that you can make a substantial income working from home.

Here is a list of tips that can help you find true wealth working from home.

Never forget that part of finding true wealth is to be found in the not so simple act of taking care of your children. Think of your children as your little dividends.

Then you must budget and schedule your time so that you allow for the effort you need to put in on your work at home business separate and apart from taking care of your children.

You need to develop the proper mindset that convinces you that you can be a success working from home. Don’t forget to remind yourself that you are entitled to be rich.

You should allow your good instincts to come into play when checking out various work from home opportunities. It won’t hurt to have a little faith in God’s hand in making this whole thing happen.

Don’t forget to check out any project you are interested in for positive or negative feedback on google. It’s good to trust your instincts and have faith, but you also need to do some research.

Don’t invest in any online business that requires you to make a large upfront investment. You are investing your time and effort. That should be enough. People need to want you for who you are and what you can achieve.

Spend some time with your mate going over what you plan to do so that you are both on the same track. You will need all the support you can get. Also discuss your plans with close friends and relatives to get their opinion and enlist their support. That’s right, get out there and network by e-mail and on the phone.

Be sure you have adequate savings to handle the first three to six months while you are getting your work at home business to be profitable enough to provide you with a good income.

Don’t be afraid to look at new situations if all you are risking is your time and effort, but be careful not to waste your time on fly by night scams that promise you the moon.

This list could go on and on, and it is up to you to summarize what is important to you and focus on your goal of becoming successful working at home. If you really need it and you want it, you can find a way to get rich working at home on the Internet. You can do it.

Work At Home Dads: Are You Getting Respect?

Okay, so you’re the one elected to stay home and watch the kids, but does that mean you can’t earn a good living working from home at the same time? You can if you know what to do. Don’t you want to feel more productive? You are entitled to be a whole person and live your own life. Are you ready to make a great part time income working from home?

Today, many men are staying home and doing their part to raise the kids. That doesn’t mean they can’t make a substantial contribution to family financial affairs. That doesn’t mean they aren’t entitled to respect. You don’t have to sacrifice your dreams.

Some of the things you have to do if you want to get the respect you deserve and make a good living working from home are:

Analyze what you are good at.

Determine what you like to do.

Assess how much time you have available.

Conference with you mate on what you plan to do.

Start searching for the right opportunity.

Avoid scams and costly investments.

Trust your instincts.

Be prepared to network with family and friends.

Make your own To Do list.

Be creative.

Use your imagination.

Make a decision and stick to it.

Role reversal may be the order of the day, but that doesn’t mean you are not still the man of the house. Your children need a father figure: someone they can look up to and emulate. You are that person. You can show them what it means to be a success, and a kind and caring father at the same time while working from home.

So what kind of an opportunity are you looking for? What can you do from home that will yield you a substantial income and a great sense of satisfaction at the same time? What can you do that will cost you absolutely nothing and give you a real potential for success? What can you do that will have your children and your mate looking up to you with respect?

I won’t keep you in suspense any longer. You can build a team of people all working from their homes who make money shopping on the Internet and buying what they already shop for at bargain prices on their own malls filled with over 1000 top notch stores completely set up for you free. This is a win, win situation. You can invite other work at home fathers to join you and get an override on every purchase they make. You are entitled to the income and the respect that you will earn.

Work At Home Moms: So You’re Having A Baby

I know it isn’t easy. Here you are expecting and needing to be pampered and appreciated, and you have to start thinking about how you are going to earn a good income working from home and taking care of a new baby at the same time.

As if having a baby wasn’t enough of a life-changing event, you are going to have to change the way you work, and when you work, and where you work. You are probably going to have to become an independent contractor if you want to work on your own schedule and have enough flexibility to take care of a baby at the same time.

The good part is that working from home on your own, you get to call the shots. You can be your own boss, set your own schedule, and be as creative as you want to be without some know nothing boss interfering with your latest brainstorm.

The problem is deciding what to do and how to earn a great living doing it. You probably also have to concern yourself with money. Right now it seems like it is all out go what with baby furniture, pampers, baby cloths, doctor bills, and the loss of a steady income from your prior job. You need something that requires no investment.

But there is hope. What if you could do something you really love to do, are good at, and can make money, at the same time that you are networking and socializing with friends and neighbors: something that will keep you from being lonely and feeling isolated from your former co-workers, something that will let you use your imagination while you earn lots of money.

It is possible to find something to do that will earn you a great living and give you pleasure and enjoyment at the same time. Of course nothing can compare to the happiness your baby will bring you, but sometimes you need some grown up companionship and mental stimulation even if it is by e-mail, or on the telephone.

I don’t want to keep you in suspense any longer. What you can do that you are good at, need to do, and enjoy doing, is shopping. Yes that’s right, you can make money shopping from home in your free time while you are socializing with friends and making new friends and acquaintances. It’s a win, win situation. You can do this from home by shopping on the Internet. You can take control of your own future and help provide your family with a wonderful living. You can be the boss. You can do what you are good at. Who doesn’t like to shop?

Happy Every Day: It’s Time To Celebrate the Fourth of July

Why do we have to wait for special holidays to celebrate the miracle of life? Isn’t it time we started to appreciate how much we have to be happy for every day of our lives?

It seems to me that many of us are taking the bounty of our lives for granted. We spend so much time wishing for more that we forget how much we already have.

We take for granted things like:

Good Health

A Loving Family

The Blessings of God

The Miracle of Our Faith

The Beauty All Around Us

Our Ability To Think and Reason

The Wonders of The World We Live In

Our Beliefs and Our Passions

The Kindness of Strangers

Our God Given Souls

The Miracle of Life Itself

The list could go on and on. Maybe you can think of some things that I have forgotten that we take for granted. Maybe you can help others become more aware of their surroundings and their blessings.

Don’t waste your time thinking about the bad things that have happened in your life. It won’t make them go away any sooner. It won’t make you happier. It will distract you from concentrating on all the good things you have to celebrate.

Concentrate on the positive. Having a positive attitude will help you be happier. Believe in a good future for yourself and your family and your chances of having one will improve dramatically. Have faith in yourself and your ability to be a force for good. Believe in God and all He has given us.

Isn’t it time we took the time to celebrate our lives by trying harder to make something more constructive of them. Perhaps that’s what the celebration should be all about: Our ability to try and do better, our passion to discover more of the meaning of life, and our ability to be thinking and kind human beings.

What a wonderful world this is for us to live and love and work in. Doesn’t it make you want to celebrate your existence every day of the year?

Happy Fourth of July

The Best Ticket Ever Invented To Get Out Of The Rat Race

Are you tired of saying yes to a boss that doesn’t understand or appreciate you? Are you tired of the office politics? Would you like to get into a work at home business that can provide you with a very substantial income so that you can fire your boss and spend more time with your family?

Isn’t it time people started to appreciate you for your talents and skills? Maybe you need to start your own business working from home, and become your own boss.

The trouble is that there are so many opportunities out there, and most of them cost money to participate in. How do you tell which are real opportunities, and which are scams without spending a fortune?

The answer I think is to find a program that is totally free and provides a social benefit to the general populous so that you can be making a good income and doing good at the same time.

You might be asking yourself if such a thing is possible? I don’t blame you, but have a little faith. All things are possible. What you need to start with is a positive attitude and a questioning skeptical mind.

You also need to learn to trust your instincts and rely on your faith. You must be convinced that the best is yet to come. You must develop a positive, I can do it, attitude.

Yes, I know it is hard after years of being pushed down by a know nothing boss, but you can do it. All you need is the right opportunity.

Wouldn’t it be nice not to have to play office politics? Wouldn’t it be nice to have your ideas and opinions taken seriously?

It is time to take a stand. You are entitled to more out of life then to have to cow tow to an ignorant boss.

There are opportunities out there that won’t cost you any money. You can start on a part time basis until you are assured of a big enough income to leave your job for good. You can do it on your own. Have a little faith in your own abilities and you will marvel at the results.

Working At Home Just Got More Rewarding

Working At Home Just Got More Rewarding


Are you as tired as I am of looking for work at home opportunities and just finding more ways to pour money down the drain?

Does this sound familiar?

∑ It is only ten dollars and you could make a fortune.

∑ You have to buy the beginning inventory first.

∑ All you pay for is shipping at $5.95 or $2.95, or $9.95

∑ This will make you a millionaire in a month or your money back.

∑ This is a win, win, no lose situation for only $49.95.

∑ If you don’t hurry the price is going up to $500.

∑ Membership is only $30 a month and includes everything.

∑ This is a proven formula that can’t lose.

∑ Do you want to live like a millionaire?

∑ It doesn’t get any better than this.

I think if we all had back the money we have lost on some of these schemes we would be millionaires, at least collectively.

But like many of us, I keep trying to find that real opportunity to work at home that won’t cost me a penny. I mean not one red cent up front or in the future

I was beginning to think that such an opportunity doesn’t exist. You know the kind I mean. The one where:

∑ You don’t have to invest anything’ but some of your time.

∑ The one that makes me feel good about myself, and the work
at home business I am in.

∑ The opportunity that let’s me help others, be charitable, and make money at the same time.

Is this possible?

For a long time I thought it wasn’t. After all, what I was really looking for was something that would let me harness the power of the Internet for free so that I could work at home and make money.

Well I discovered that wonders never cease. I found a program that lets me harness the power of shopping at home on the Internet, and it doesn’t cost a dime to join or to use it. All you have to do is whatever you were already doing and spend a little time introducing the program to others.

Working at home just got financially more rewarding.

Happy Father's Day - You Deserve It

That’s right, you are entitled to celebrate and be celebrated on father’s day. You tried to do your best to provide your children with a decent life and now you are entitled to celebrate the fact that you are a father.

You did participate in bringing your children into the world, didn’t you?

You did try and give them the best education you could afford, didn’t you?

You did love and help care for them, didn’t you?

Now it’s your turn to be recognized for your efforts.

I think too often that us fathers are taken for granted. It is assumed that we will care for our children. It is assumed that we will pay attention to their needs and wants. But this isn’t true in all societies, and it certainly isn’t true in all species.

It makes sense to me that we do what we do as fathers because we want to. I think its part of an ingrained gene that God gave us to help make up part of the human family. I think it’s a special characteristic that we have been blessed with.

So lets celebrate the way we are on father’s day. And while we are doing so lets not forget our wonderful children who are the product of our efforts. And let’s not forget God who has given us the capacity to care about our family and our children.

Maybe if we are very lucky, our children won’t forget us either. Maybe they will help us celebrate being who we are. Maybe they will remember what we do for them, and how much we care.

It’s true I guess that some of us may be forgotten or even not truly appreciated for who we are and what we have done. But it really doesn’t matter because the proof of our efforts is in our children. It is undeniable. They are wonderful. We helped make them this way. God the father of us all has played a major part in this celebration of human life and renewal. Let’s not forget our Faith in Him who has made our day of celebration possible.

Have A Happy Father’s Day.

Stripped Naked In God's eyes


I found myself crouching in the corner of my bed quivering with fear with the blankets pulled up over my head. I had just had a dream or was it a nightmare? I dreamed that I was standing in the middle of Times Square in New York City stark naked and everyone was laughing at me. They had discovered all my weaknesses. They had determined that I was not really a Person of Faith.

Sometimes dreams reveal our fears and insecurities. Sometimes they serve to remind us of our weaknesses. Sometimes they show us how much more faith we really need before we can stand before God as people of faith.

In order to peel away years of feeling insecure, we have to strip away our inhibitions and use our imaginations to find our true inner feelings of faith. The time to do this is now.

Stop worrying about revealing your weaknesses to your friends and family. Stop worrying about how you appear to strangers. Stop concerning yourself with how the public will view you.

The only one that you truly have to concern yourself with is God. God knows all your fears. He knows all your weaknesses. He feels your pain. Before God we all stand naked. He knows what is in our hearts and souls.

Are you ready to stand naked before God?

Are you ready to reveal to Him your innermost feelings?

You can tell God anything. You can expose your true feelings of faith to Him.

You can show God that you do believe in Him and that you do have faith.

You can let God know that you have faith in Him even though you can only imagine his grace and his glory.

Hurry, God may be waiting to hear from you.

One Stop Money Making Marketing Machine

I am getting a little confused looking at all the different affiliate type programs offering me a free Website to promote one product or the other. Each offer indicates that their way is the best to the exclusion of all others. What I really want is to have the best of all worlds.

That’s right, I want one program that offers me multiple sources of income from most of the proven major affiliate programs. I also want a program that will help me build a significant lifetime residual income, and one that I can operate right from my own home. I want to work at home. In fact I want my money making machine to do most of the work for me.

I want a one stop money making marketing machine: a program that offers me everything I am looking for and that is offering products for sale 24/7 that are going to really make me money and offer me a lifetime residual income that goes on and on and can even be left to my wife and children if something happens to me.

My philosophy is let the customer decide. Let them make the decision as to what product or service they want to buy. I want to offer them as many fine choices as possible. I want to make their selection easy. I want us to offer them everything they could possibly be looking for all in one place.

I guess what I want and want to be able to offer others is a Website that provides multiple streams of income and lifetime residual income all in one place. Is this too much to ask? With all the technological advances available today, I don’t think so. I think anything is possible if you know how to look in the right place.

Some people may think I am greedy and ambitious, but I think I am just enterprising. I am looking for the best marketing opportunity available to fulfill my dreams. I am looking to sell product that meets my customer’s demands. I am trying to satisfy their desires. When I succeed I make money and they make money. What could be better?

Sometimes simplicity of motive can create the best result. Sometimes wanting it all is a virtue in and of itself. Sometimes wanting to meet our marketing objectives all in one place is a dream that can come true for all of us.

The New Middle Aged – Their Faith and Politics

Please feel free to use this article as long as credit is given to the resource box.
© Copyright Arthur Levine – 2007
Keywords: New Middle Aged, God, Faith, Politics
Words: 525

Surprise, a very unofficial, unscientific poll I just took among a group of my poker playing buddies indicates that the New Middle Aged Group (Those in their fifties and sixties) are split in their political leanings pretty much along the same lines as the national electorate of Democrats, Independents, and Republicans.

As far as having faith in God and a high degree of Spiritualism is concerned, there is no divide. People of all political persuasions appear to have faith except of course for the Atheists.

This statistically corrupt information only begs the fact that there are a lot of politics going on in the name of faith. And this applies especially to people in their fifties and sixties who in their own minds no longer have any margin for error left even if it is plus or minus three percent as the polling pundits will tell you.

Make no mistake about it, there is a tug of war going on for the political allegiance of people of all faiths, but the New Middle Aged Group are standing their ground. They are refusing to be swayed by the puffed up pitches and rhetoric of all the major political parties. They have seen and heard this all before.

The New Middle Aged Group prefers to rely on their instincts and their faith to guide them in making political decisions. That’s how they managed to get to this stage in their life to begin with without falling prey to disaster.

As far as the faith part goes, they all started with some faith in God and this has only grown over the years as the specter of their own mortality becomes increasingly present in their minds.

You might wonder why this is the topic for conversation when so much of what we know is a given. The truth is that every one wants their vote. That’s right, the older and supposedly wiser heads, those baby boomers and their ilk, are respected, adored, and courted for their vote

It’s enough to make one wonder what all the fuss about getting older is if every one wants what this hardy group of people in their fifties and sixties have: the wisdom to make sound decisions, the stamina to live longer healthier lives, the desire and ability to make the right choices and of course their precious votes.

I say let’s spend our time trying to figure out how to join this august group instead of fighting getting older. That’s what I vote for. How about you?

Yesterday in response to another article I had written about working at home for people in their fifties and sixties, I got a number of comments that others felt the same way about starting new careers and were using the Internet to do so. They seemed to be very happy to see that someone else held opinions similar to theirs and was attempting to do the same thing.

Then it struck me that there must be a lot of people out their who are struggling with retirement and the wish to stay active, continue earning a living, and do something worthwhile and creative with their lives.

It can seem pretty lonely when suddenly the job you have been doing for many years is no longer there, when you no longer have an office to go to, and when your normal daily work routine suddenly stops.

It would be nice to know that many other people are going through the same type of lifestyle altering events. It would be nice to know what other people are doing to deal with this major change in their lives, how they are creating new careers, and what they are doing to stay active and do something constructive.

To today’s active new middle-aged group retirement no longer means no longer working. It means changing the nature of the work that you do. It means finding a new direction. It means taking charge of your life.

Sometimes starting a new career can be the opportunity to follow your own special interests that you may not have had the ability to concentrate on before. Sometimes it means being able to work at your own pace from your own home. Sometimes it gives you the luxury to be free to do whatever you feel called upon to do.

No one can force you into retirement. No one make you do or not do something. You have reached a stage in your life where you can live life on your own terms.

Maybe what we need to do is to start a community of like-minded people who consider themselves part of the new middle-aged group and are ready to start a new career. Maybe we can help each other find the answers we are searching for together as we make a fresh start.

If you would like to help build a community for the new middle-aged group, and
participate in a new beginning please share your comments with us at my blog at:

How many times have you said to yourself, I wish I had someone who could write articles for my Website or Blog that tells the reader what I think they will be interested in reading about?

Many of you don’t have the time or the desire to write your own articles, but you sure know what you want talked about, and you probably have an excellent idea of what your readers want to see and hear.

Many of you turn to free article submission services to find the articles you want to post on your Websites. Some of you turn to paid content for hire Websites to fill your article needs, Some of you even hire individual freelance writers to write the articles you desire, but how many of these people stay on topic and are willing to learn to write in your voice?

Whatever method you use, please be sure to try and find articles that fit in with the character and nature of your Website. Believe it or not, your readers know the difference. They can tell instinctively when you are running something as filler material, and when you are posting something that genuinely represents the interests of your Website or Blog.

I guess the message is to try and stay on message.

This isn’t always easy. There is a lot of material out there on the Internet, some of which is very good, and some of which has been reprocessed and renamed to the point that it is useless in creating the impression that you want.

Stay away from duplicate content. The best way to do this is to stick with the article submission services that you know and trust and that have policies against publishing duplicate content.

Another good way to assure that your readers are getting what they want is for you to hire a freelance writer that will produce exactly the kind of material that you are looking for.

Whatever you decide to do, be sure to try and provide your readers with material that meets their demands for information of value on the topic your Website or Blog specializes in. That’s the best way to keep their interest and protect yours.

Is it the mother of invention? Is it the mother of Jesus Christ? Is it your own mother? The answer I think is all of the above.

Isn’t it time we started honoring our mothers all year long instead of just on one special day of the year? Mothers Day is coming. Have you been honoring and respecting and loving your mother every day of the year to get ready for this big event?

It seems to me we ought to show some appreciation for how we got here granted that God’s fine hand is imprinted on our very conception. Without our mother’s cooperation and nurturing love we wouldn’t be here.

What about all the life lessons our mothers have taught us? Shouldn’t she get daily credit for teaching us about life and love and having faith and God?

I think it is time to stop taking mothers for granted. Those of us that are old enough should know better. Let’s not forget how we got here and whom we have to be thankful to for the blessings of life.

So let’s remember our mothers, our faith, and our God, and give thanks for being alive. Let’s give thanks for all the bandaged fingers and tears wiped away from insult or hurt when we were growing up. Let’s not forget the caring and kindness. Let’s not forget our mother’s faith in God and in us, and the moral compass she provided us with.

Let’s not forget those of us whose mothers have passed. We have no one to celebrate Mother’s day with except our wives and our own families. But we do have our cherished memories. We can remember special times. We can remember a mother’s love, and so can our children.

So if your mother is still with you whether it is in memory of fun times past, or in the appreciation of this special day to celebrate our mothers, let’s make the most of this opportunity to consecrate the greatness of our mothers and the mothers of our children.

Let’s not forget our mothers and our children’s mothers: not on their special day, and not on every other day of our lives. Let’s celebrate.

Sex and Religion: having faith in both

Please feel free to use this article as long as credit is given to the resource box.
© Copyright Arthur Levine – 2007
Keywords: God, Faith, Sex, Religion
Words: 503

There are some things people learn from their parents and some things they learn in church, but learning about sex is usually accomplished via the self-study method. We just have to have faith that what we learn about sex is appropriate and in keeping with the teachings of God.

The good part is that most of us have a natural proclivity for procreation, and thus are following in the footsteps of God. After all He did make all of us in His image, didn’t he?

I don’t mean to sound blasphemous, but having sexual feelings seems to be a natural instinct, and you know whom we got those from. Thank God there is no reason to believe we are doing something wrong when we have sex. It is nice to know that on the contrary we are doing God’s work and populating the planet.

Don’t get too happy just yet. We still have to account for the use of prophylactics and the proliferation of same sex coupling. I don’t think either of these things were part of God’s original plan.

In spite of all our good intentions, we humans manage to mess things up once in a while or at least deviate from God’s plan. Maybe that’s why some of us are called deviates. But I prefer to concentrate on what comes naturally both in my religious beliefs and in my sexual habits. It makes it so much easier for me to have faith in God and myself that way.

Speaking of having faith, when was the last time you viewed having sex as a religious experience? Makes you stop and think doesn’t it? If we concentrate on the religious aspect of having sex more of us might enjoy it more or at least feel less guilty about doing it. We might even come to accept it as a normal part of life.

Don’t you want to be normal? If you do you are going to have to learn to channel your sexual impulses to adhere to the will of God as each of you interpret it. That shouldn’t be so difficult, should it?

I don’t know why an activity that we all seem to enjoy so much and which evidently is a religious experience should cause so many of us pain and stress. Maybe if we had more faith in God all we would be left with is the pleasure of the experience of doing God’s will.

How To Stuff A Watermelon Into A Kumquat

Please feel free to use this article as long as credit is given to the resource box.

Works: 507
Keywords: contest1, imagination, inhibitions, God, faith, seed, watermelon, kumquat


Okay, I admit it isn’t going to be easy, but if we have enough faith in God it can be done. Let’s start by stripping away our inhibitions that keep us from using our imagination. That’s better; you are starting to get the hang of this I think. You are beginning to accept the principal that in God’s world all things are possible.

I am not looking to make your life more difficult, but there are a lot of things we cannot visualize because we don’t understand. We sometimes find it hard to have faith in God because we cannot see or understand Him, but we know in our hearts that He is there never the less.

It is difficult to envision a big watermelon being stuffed into a tiny kumquat, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t possible. All things are possible if we have enough faith.

What we need to do is to strip away our inhibitions and use our imagination. As with all things that require faith, this will mean that we will have to accept that which we cannot see. Do not fear peeling away your inhibitions and using your imagination, we are all striped naked of our preconceived notions and fears in God’s eyes.

Maybe what we have to do is to start with the seed of an idea. Maybe we have to start with accepting God’s will as a given. Maybe we have to start thinking of the watermelon as nature’s seed conceived by God.

If we start to think about the watermelon as a seed, we can begin to imagine that we could stuff it into a kumquat. Then it would only be a matter of faith and miracles to ascertain how big the watermelon could grow before the poor little kumquat burst.

I think if we start to have the proper perspective about our faith in God, and lean to accept His presence on faith, then all kinds of wonderful visions and miracles will become possible.

Perhaps it is not such a giant leap of faith from a watermelon in a kumquat to peace on earth and goodwill to all of God’s children. We are all God’s seed and we need to have faith in our Maker. We need to open our hearts and lean to believe. We need to nourish the seeds in the garden of His grace. We need to acknowledge the miracle of nature that God has given us.

How To Make Money Selling God’s Stuff

That’s right, there are a lot of ways to make money selling the word of God, and doing His good works at the same time. Is your faith strong enough to help you earn a lot of money in the service of God? Let’s check out a number of ways you can make money selling God’s stuff. It may seem like a miracle when you discover how easy it is to earn money working in God’s way, spreading His word, and doing His good works.

There are a lot of not for profit religious based organizations out there that need fund raisers. In many cases they pay commission, and in some cased they provide a draw against commissions earned. Commissions usually range between four and six percent. Earnings may vary from approximately $25,000 to $100,000 plus a year. You could be making money and doing something for a good cause at the same time.

Many religious organizations conduct their own fund raising activities. A short list of the organizations involved would include:

1. Catholic charities
2. Lutheran Ministries
3. Catholic Relief Services
4. Church World Services
5. St. Jude Charity
6. Christian Children’s fund
7. Habitat For Humanity
8. American Jewish Charities
9. Mennonite Global Communities
10. United Jewish Philanthropies.

In addition to these groups you will also find a myriad of not for profit charitable organizations that are affiliated with various religions organizations such as the Red Cross and the Salvation Army that combined raise billions of dollars on an annual basis to do God’s work. You can help them and help yourself at the same time. Don’t be shy. Contact these organization’s human resource departments and tell them you would like to become a fundraiser for them, and find out how to apply. If you have no experience you might want to start by offering your services on a volunteer basis to get some on the job training. For a searchable database of over one and one half million IRS approved not for profits check out Guidestar.com

Participating in fund raising activities is not the only way to make money doing God’s work. Some people become members of the clergy and or start their own churches from which activity they derive a living. You can become a member of the clergy online for free. You can also start a church online and establish a Website to solicit donations for your church. Check our Pulc.com, Startchurch.com, and Charityadvantage.com for appropriate resources. There are many more. While you are looking them up on google take a look around. The earnings potential here is almost unlimited


Still other people make a living selling religious memorabilia or collectibles such as crucifixes or menorahs. Some work for big companies who manufacture these products, and others have their own retail or online stores. Have you ever heard of Angel Bracelets or faith-based Magic Pills? Check out Personalcreations.com and Danburymint.com as product resources.

A number of people earn their living writing and publishing religious books and articles. There is always a thirst for knowledge about the words of God and His meaning. This is evidenced by a number of Websites that all promote the word of God in many different ways such as Beliefnet.com, ReligiousTolerance.org, and Faith.com? Many newspapers also have a religious or faith or spiritual column. Review what they have to say, put some samples or clips of your writing together, and send them off to the proper person. Whether you e-mail or use regular mail be sure to get the editors name and spell it correctly. This is not the place for something like, Dear Sir. It wouldn’t hurt to ask if there is something you could research for them to break the ice.

In addition to all of the above, promoting major religious holidays such as Christmas, Easter, Passover, and Hanukah through the sale of Greeting Cards, Decorations, and Specialty foods has become big business. This has created employment opportunities for many people both in the manufacture, distribution and sale of God’s stuff. Websites to check out are AmericanGreetings.com, Fabulousfoods.com, and MarthaStewart.com. Salaries in this field although varying widely are known to be above the national average for comparable employment.

You can develop your own resources online by searching on google or yahoo under terms like, religious articles, not for profits, church products, specialty foods, religious charities, and religious Web sites.

If your inclination is to earn a living spreading God’s word and doing good works in His name there are many opportunities to do so. You have to start by analyzing the nature of your calling to do God’s work, and see if you can measure up to what the Lord will require of you. That’s right, it is not enough to use God’s name, you have to believe in what you are doing if you expect to be successful. You will have to have the ability to communicate your feelings for God to the people you come in contact with and are soliciting.

In other words, before a person can make others believe in God, and do His good works, and make good money doing so, one has to have faith in the power and mercy of our common Lord themselves. You will have to believe that what you are doing is moral and ethical and in the best interests of God and yourself and the people you serve; otherwise it would be blasphemous.

How can you expect others to buy God’s stuff from you if you don’t have faith in God and his words of kindness and caring yourself?

Don’t miss this opportunity to work with God and do good works and earn good money at the same time.

Don’t miss this opportunity to build a career in the service of the Almighty.

Don’t miss this opportunity to work for God. Not only will you be rewarded in Heaven, but also you will receive financial rewards right here on earth selling God’s stuff.

Please note that earnings from selling God’s stuff will vary widely depending on the effort and amount of time you devote to doing God’s work, but the potential is there to make a substantial living if you just have faith in God. He does work in mysterious and unfathomable ways, and helping us humans make a living seems to be one of them.

Easter – Its origins and relationship to Pagans and Passover

I’m confused about Easter, how about you? There seems to be much scholarly discourse that links the Christian tradition of Easter to the Jewish tradition of Passover and to certain Pagan rituals and beliefs that came before them. There is even some dispute over the actual date of Christ’s death and resurrection, but the faith that each of us hold in our hearts cannot be in dispute. This I believe.

The name Easter may have first been associated with an ancient Goddess, The Venerable Bede, (672-735). She was the mother Goddess of the Saxon people in Northern Europe who was known as Eastra.

Many Pagan religions in the Mediterranean area had a major seasonal day of religious celebration following the Spring Equinox. Cybele, the Phrygian fertility goddess had a fictional consort named Attis who was believed to have been born in a virgin birth and to have died and been resurrected each year during the March 22 to March 25th period around 200 B.C. Wherever Christian worship of Jesus and Pagan worship of Attis were active in the same area at around the same time, Christians and Pagans used to quarrel about which of their gods was the true one.

Some religious historians believe that the death and resurrection legends were first associated with Attis many centuries before the birth of Christ. One theory is that they were simply grafted onto stories of Jesus’ in order to make Christian theology more acceptable to Pagans.

My own opinion is that we shouldn’t worry too much about what the experts say. I think its what you feel in your heart and soul that counts at this holy time of year. I think it’s your family traditions, your personal beliefs, and the religious rituals you have grown up with that really matter.

Easter has Judeo-Christian origins. The life of Jesus Christ as recorded in the gospels includes the Christian version of this theme. Good Friday is observed in remembrance of Jesus’ execution by an occupying Roman army, and his burial in a cave. Easter Sunday is the date when a group of his female followers first noticed that the tomb was empty, and concluded that he had been resurrected.
The timing of the Christian celebration of Easter is linked to the Jewish celebration of Passover. The name Passover was derived from the angel of death passing over homes of Jews, which were marked, with the blood of a lamb thus sparing the first born of such homes. Liberal Theologians link Passover to ancient pre-Israelite Pagan rituals practiced by wandering Semitic shepherds in celebration of an agricultural harvest using unleavened bread.

Passover was the most important feast of the Jewish calendar, celebrated around the 22nd of March. The Synoptic gospels of Mark, Mathew, and Luke stated that Jesus’ last supper was a Seder or Passover celebration.

Most Christians believe that Jesus Christ was executed and buried just before the beginning of Passover on Friday evening. A minority believes that the execution occurred on a Wednesday or Thursday. Some liberal Christians have suggested that the early Christian Church arbitrarily selected Passover as the time thus allowing them to link the most important religious days in Judaism and Christianity.

Whatever your personal beliefs are, whatever the actual dates are, don’t let the skeptics amongst us deter you from celebrating your religious beliefs and traditions. Don’t let those of little faith keep you from believing.

Easter is a Christian Festival, which celebrates Christ’s Resurrection. Today eggs are decorated and exchanged with friends and family to commemorate the unification of all God’s children. In ancient times eggs were exchanged to symbolize the continuance of life after death. Early Christianity is thought to have adopted the idea and incorporated it into their Easter celebration. Let the celebration continue.

Work At Home


The Longevity Express is here. People are starting to live longer faster than ever before. Isn’t it wonderful? The average age is now around eighty and climbing quicker than the actuarial tables have estimated. People in their fifties and sixties now consider themselves part of the new middle aged. More and more of them are starting to work from home.

Where will it all end? No one knows, but certain scientists are estimating average life spans of well over one hundred in the not to distant future. At this rate people in their seventies may soon consider themselves middle aged.

What are we doing to prepare for this Longevity Express? We better do some planning before we end up with a train wreck.

Planning For The future:

1. What will the health and life insurance people do when faced with masses of people in their nineties plus looking for coverage?
2. What will happen to Social Security and Medicare?
3. Will the demand for new life prolonging drugs continue unabated?
4. Will people have to modify their wills and trusts to account for grandchildren and great grandchildren?
5. Will body part cloning become a reality?
6. How will corporations deal with an aging work force?
7. What are the social ramifications of Longevity re marriage, sex, and divorce?
8. Will children have to provide more care to parents?
9. Will there be enough assisted living facilities?
10. Will people living to one hundred plus have the mental and physical capacity to lead worthwhile, primarily pain free, productive lives?

Enough attention is not being paid to the side effects of the Longevity Express. It will have major effects on our economy and in fact on our philosophy of life.

Perhaps the most important effect of people living longer is a need to provide them with ways to continue to be productive members of our economy. This opens the door to more and more people seeking their own work at home business opportunities that are compatible will their well-earned desire for more leisure time.

Our aging population will need to rely on their experience, life knowledge, and an appreciation of the technological opportunities available to them to create an online business on the Internet.

They needn’t fear not being computer savvy because there are programs out there that will get them started with their own free Web site, which they can individualize the content of to create their own brand.

These work at home online opportunities will enable older people to once more become productive elements in our society and give them a sense of independence. It will give them a forum to express their views and share their knowledge with others. It will help shape the new social order that is speeding to us on the Longevity Express.
