NEW HOME reviewed by Ruthie Young
In this short story, you will learn about Chelsea and her biggest goal ever: being free in a natural home. One day, Chelsea tells her friends about this dream. Chelsea knows for sure that she will leave her home at "The Magic Garden," so she asks her friends Lou, Marianne, and Betty Sue to come with her. Disappointed, Chelsea finds out that her friends are happy where they live now, and have no intention of leaving the pond, but this does not stop her from embarking on the big adventure. During the night, Chelsea plans her escape step by step. She is all set to go.
THE CREATIVE
LIFE reviewed by Ariele M. Huff
Secular approaches to these issues often fall flat for want of music. They frequently miss the sublime scale of the topic, reducing transcendent experiences to their most mundane symptoms or results. Religious approaches commonly generalize and aggrandize without detail, leaving listeners unsure as to how to pursue knowledge and application.

I have often thought
that the songs of love that one hears on the radio should be
sung to that which is divine within us. As we look outside of
ourselves for what we need to find inside, we miss the point.
As we seek to complete ourselves by finding in another human
being what we must find within, we give away our power. In the
introduction to The Soul in Love, Chopra says, "There
is a rare experience that can bring more delight than falling
in love — falling in love with God." These poems speak
of the intoxication that comes with this loving relationship
with our essential selves as found in God. Here we can touch
into a depth that defies explanation.
Chelsea the fish
lives in an artificial pond in a flower shop. She lives among
the reeds with her other fish friends, and it is a very nice
home. But Chelsea dreams of living elsewhere.
The
topic of creativity has the same kind of elusive, mysterious
appeal that surrounds birth, love, death, spirit, and magic.
All are huge subjects with catacombs full of subtexts, monuments
to various philosophies and opinions.
Forgiving someone does not mean "Okay, you can
continue to treat me like a doormat." It doesn't mean that
the person can continue to treat you in a disrespectful way.
But what does it mean? How does forgiving others help you? This
month's sites offer a number of valuable resources, processes,
and ideas that will help you decide what forgiveness means to
you.
