(Photo by The New York Times)Opponents of Gay Marriage point out that non-White voters in California helped to pass Prop 8. According to the Public Policy Institute of California (PPIC), 57% of non-Whites supported the ban on same-sex marriages. One should not jump to quick conclusions that the Latino/Hispanic communities are against same sex marriages. The PPIC’s survey results also indicate th

Today, while I was surfing the internet through EntreCard, I found this amazing article. It is quite refreshing, but at the same time leaves me greatly concerned. The original author mentions in this article that "It is interesting to see such openness and hopefully acceptance" and this concerns me. It is not the openness that concerns me. It is more the portion of the "acceptance" that is concer

"We cannot change anything until we accept it.
Condemnation does not liberate, it oppresses."

The second principle of self mastery might present the greatest challenge at first. Yet, in the end it could well deliver the greatest gift of all.
Accepting WHAT IS!
We are who we are. We do what we do, and we do the best we can in any given moment, based on the beliefs we hold.

John McCain is standing before the crowd readying himself for the speech of a lifetime. It's a remarkable moment to say the least. I'm entranced by the heroic language they employed. It's not surprising in the least. It's just enthralling. Mama's boy...Hero...and chants of "U.S.A.!" interrupting him. McCain is bragging on his family. I get that.

For the last seven months I’ve been a hermit, holed up on my own and keeping to myself.[You know, doing the whole grief thing.]Sometime in the recent past I noticed streams of stubborn, persistent sunlight sneaking through the slats of my down-turned window blinds. Curious, I opened the front door with squinted and adjusting eyes to see that my entire yard was full of people.At first I hurried back inside and shut the door. Oh, my GOD! Who ARE all those people and what are they doing in my yard?!!Gradually I went out among them.They invited us to their houses for dinners and play dates and we invited them back...They made us laugh.They have us out and about, walking around our neighborhood."Let's go on an adventure!"

The notion that "acceptance is the key" to solving many of the problems of life is a very valuable piece of wisdom that most of us forget on a daily basis. Many people buck up against this concept initially by saying "I can't accept such-and-such; it's just intolerable to me." This response shows some confusion between the concepts of acceptance and approval. To accept a situation is not the same as liking it. It's not necessary to approve of something in order to accept it as a reality. It's nearly impossible to change anything before you accept it. When I am working with a client who has a belief or attitude that I feel is counter-productive to his or her goals, I have to start by aligning myself in a solid, genuine relationship with that client. I have to accept what that client
The Power of AcceptanceIn the course of counseling couples we find that even when they come for help they don’t always want to fix their relationship. The obvious reasons could be thinking things like, we don’t need a stranger knowing our private stuff, it is too embarrassing to talk about, we can do this on our own, it’s not that bad, I’m only here because s/he dragged me. But there are also less obvious reasons as well.For some counseling is a last ditch “effort” before they cut out and run, so they can say, “I tried everything, I even went counseling and now I’m done.” This attitude has its root in selfishness and the main reason for divorce and relationship break-ups is selfishness. However, there are those who don’t really want to come because they are unsure abou

We resist (repel) and grasp (cling) so many things. This is one of the major causes of suffering. Instead of saying we need to accept, which sounds like an action taken in specific situations…I prefer saying adopt an attitude of acceptance of everything that is as it is.
With this attitude of acceptance, let what comes come…let what goes go. There is no repelling or clinging to anything. As long as it is…it is accepted. When it is not, it is accepted. This will also ground awareness in the present moment as well because you are not trying to grasped what no longer is or what you hope will be…or repel what looks like may be but you don’t want it.
If you adopt an attitude of acceptance to what is as it is…and find at some moment you are resisting and not accepting –

But beneath these pretty little decorations I adorned myself with..I was a full time lying, thieving, stone cold heroin addict.

I wish I had more time to write. I love this blog and all the people that share. I have been busy with life on life’s terms and sometimes that is almost to much. But we all now we never get more than we can handle.
I have two sponsee’s at the moment and they are both retreads. That has been filling much of my time. Working steps with people that already think to much but haven’t found the key to unlocking the door to continuous clean time takes more. No pink clouds, and no first time wonderment. Just alot of hard work. I’ve been there but I can’t just tell them how to do it. Personal discovery is so important.
I hope this sweet seed of recovery continues to exist. Sometimes blogs have slow moments and then they rekindle. I always enjoy coming here and relaxing. But whatever is meant to be will be. I guess that would be acceptance.
For quite a while, the "377A Penal Code Homosexuality Debate" has been a rallying point for many Singaporeans. Everyday, we are seeing more blog posts on this topic. I would admit it is, however, very difficult to determine if the reluctance to repeal 377A would eventually result in further discrimination against the homosexual population. Basically we are dealing with 3 issues: The right of gays and lesbians to have equal protection under the lawChristianity believes that homosexuality is a sin, and thus gays are fair game to marginalise and deny the benefits of married heterosexual couplesConservative mentality The first issue should have been a non-issue as irregardless of the sexuality of a person, every Singaporean should have equal and fair treatment as detailed in our Constitution and in our national pledge where we recite: “To built a democratic society, based on justice and equality..”. The second issue, however, is a religious one. Since it is a religious issue, w

This morning on the way to work, I was stopped at a red light and an interesting thing occurred. There is construction going on and there was a dump truck on a temporary road to the side that wanted to get in. The light turned green and the fellow commuter a couple cars up waited and waved the dump truck to go. The car in front of me started honking. The man in front of me was honking and swearing. It took all of 10 seconds or so for the dump truck to go.
We were towards the back of the line, but the light turn red again just as we approached the intersection. There was the nice commuter who let in the truck, the irate honking commuter, and me. He was still going on and shaking his first at the car in front of him. Soon the light changed again and we continued on our way.
This normal situation was a great struggle with much disappointment and some suffering for the man in front of me, but it was totally in his head. Why all the stress and strain? It was a beautiful morn

There has been growing acceptance and awareness of the terms blogs and blogging. An article on Tech.Blorge.com revealed that 80% of Americans are aware of blogs and visit blogs on a regular basis.
Many people have been accustom to blogs and its ability to provide information on specialised and niche topics that may not be covered in mainstream medias. Others also find blogs as a useful source of entertainment news and gossip, however a large percentage of blog readers still refer to traditional forms of media for news, sharing their time spent with blogs on medias such as newspaper, television and radio.
Therefore as people become increasingly aware of blogs, they develop an understanding of the business opportunities blogs. Following is a description of is a list of the opportunities:

My blog has received an award and, obviously, I am greatly pleased to accept it.If there was a real awards-function and I were to make an acceptance speech, I suppose it would have gone somewhat like this:"Well...er...ahem...First of all, I would like to thank the Almighty...Then, I would like to thank my parents and teachers, who helped me learn to read and write the English language...I would like to thank the so-called leaders of the Hindu and Muslim communities of pre-partition India, who, for the sake of building their personal fiefdoms, helped drive a wedge between the people of these two communities that ultimately led to partition of the country into two inpependent states i.e. India and Pakistan...I would, obviously, also have to thank the gullible people who followed these leaders and hated each other not only as much as their leaders wanted them to, but far beyond that...If they had not killed each other in such large numbers at the time of partition, it would have been so d
