A few things to ponder about disease - by Benjamin Ka-han McAvoy

Here is a yet another article written by my friend, Benjamin. He is always thinking and voicing thoughts-sharing wisdom and helping others in their own well being. Love and light to all.

Why Disease Happens by Benjamin Ka-han McAvoy

There are several contributing factors as to why disease happens. First and foremost, falsehood, which is simply a lack or absence of truth, love, health, etc. As was mentioned in the EFT paragraph above, a blockage in the body's acupuncture energy meridian system happens before the symptoms of disease show up, and these blockages are due to our lifestyle choices and way of being. As well as an energy blockage, our way of being also leads to an imbalance in the body's pH levels, as well as cell dysfunction, both of which happen before the symptoms of disease come about. Pretty much every disease share these 4 common things: Cell dysfunction, a nutrient deficiency, an energy blockage in the acupuncture meridian system, and a pH imbalance. And all four of these are the result of unawareness and the absence of truth, love, and health.

Saying Goodbye to Disease, So to fix all of these problems that were just listed, we first need the truth. Now that we have an understanding of what MIGHT be the truth, we can put it to practice to see if it actually is or not. After all, nobody really KNOWS the truth unless something has been experienced FIRSTHAND, and even then only under certain circumstances. Nobody KNOWS the truth unless they ARE that which is to be known. Second and thirdly, we need motivation and at least a little self-discipline. Motivation usually comes when an individual has grown "sick and tired of being sick and tired", and this is all the motivation they need! For those who haven't reached those extreme lows of the depths of hell, it might help to question whether we really want to reach that point before we learn the lesson. It's a matter of learning the easy way or the hard way. It's generally far easier to prevent disease than trying to regain it. For those interested in preventing disease, their motivation is usually the joy and benefits of an enjoyable healthy life that lets them live life fully, quite often for the benefit of others. We experience the love, joy and happiness that we ARE by simply BEING it and sharing it with others, and if it's not shared with others, it won't be experienced. Denying love, joy and happiness in others, is actually denying yourself of it. Similarily, denying yourself of love also denies others of it. If a light bulb just appeared above your head, you're on your way to a much more enjoyable life!

Hope this makes sense

Interesting tidbits about HDTV without high dollar fees.

I was out and about browsing on the internet when I stumbled on an article by Dan Schointuch. I found it quite interesting. To read the article in full, click the link below.

Almost a year ago I moved into a new apartment and did something revolutionary: I didn't set up cable or satellite TV. I was frustrated by the lack of choice (only one provider), lengthy contracts, and inexplicably high price. As someone who watches a lot of television, this seemed like a truly difficult problem, but I resolved to find a way to see my favorite shows without paying a cable or satellite bill. Fortunately, it was much easier than I thought.

You might not know it, but you can watch HDTV with an antenna. Over 99% of U.S. TV households can receive at least one local sation over the air, while 89% can watch five or more. The picture is perfectly clear thanks to the switch to digital TV completed on June 12, 2009. You'll either see a crisp, beautiful image or no image at all (static is a thing of the past). And the best part? All your favorite programming will still be in HD.

Helpful uses for coffee filters.

I came across a pretty neat article written by Lori Bongiorno about coffee filters and their uses. I have used a few of these suggestions for years - like tea bags, cachets and flower pots. I thought this was worth sharing. Enjoy and why not try a few?

(By Lori Bongiorno) I was surprised to come across several articles with long lists of alternative uses for coffee filters. I'd never really considered them for anything more than making coffee, and even then I know that choosing a reusable filter or making coffee in a French press is one way to stop throwing money away and cut back on waste.


I have to admit, though, that there are some very good reasons to keep a box of coffee filters on hand. They can come in handy in a number of situations and ultimately save you money since coffee filters are less expensive than other options.

Here are some of the most interesting and practical uses for coffee filters that I've come across. Please feel free to suggest other uses in the comments below!

*Clean windows and mirrors. Coffee filters are lint-free so they don't leave behind any residue.
*Save a bottle of wine. Broke the cork? No problem. Just place a filter over a pitcher and carefully pour the wine into it.
*Line flower pots. Place a filter at the bottom of the pot to prevent soil from leaking out of the drainage hole.
*Protect china and non-stick cookware. Place a coffee filter between dishes or pans when storing or packing.
*Wipe off smudges. In a pinch, you can use to clean eyeglasses, camera lenses, televisions, and computer monitors.
*Keep your microwave clean. Prevent splatters by covering dishes or bowls in the microwave with coffee filters. Using another plate is your best bet, but filters are a good alternative to plastic wrap. And you can easily reuse them a few times.
*Make a bouquet garni. Tie up bay leaves, parsley, or other herbs in a coffee filter. Drop it in your stew or soup pot, and easily remove it when you're done cooking. Recipes often suggest cheesecloth for this process, but a coffee filter is an easy-to-find alternative.
*Diffuse the flash on your camera. Place a coffee filter over your flash to soften the brightness. You can also try putting coffee filters over lights or lamps to lessen the harshness of direct light when taking indoor photos.
*Make sachets. Tie lavender or other dried flowers and herbs in a coffee filter to make great-smelling bundles you can store in drawers and closets.
*Use for sewing projects. Coffee filters make a great backing for embroidering or appliqueing soft fabrics.
*Make tea bags. Wrap loose tea in a filter and tie with a string.
*Use for storage. Wrap Christmas ornaments and other rarely used fragile items before packing away.
