“As we grow as unique persons, we learn to respect repparttar uniqueness of others”. Robert H. Schuller

Last week, on my vacation I was having dinner with a group of special friends. These friends are affectionately known by many as "the grannies off repparttar 101647 grid". The grannies are three conscious, artistic, elder women who live on a beautiful piece of land in repparttar 101648 Arizona desert. They live in sustainable, solar homes, which for repparttar 101649 most part they built themselves. These women are an inspirational model of a future community that benefits many people. On this particular evening, I was engaged in a conversation with one of these delightful, wise women about my identity as a coach and a businesswoman. With her 70 some odd year perspective she told me she had let go of repparttar 101650 need for an "identity". She preferred to think of herself as a part of All That Is, as undefined. Immediately, wanting to emulate her wisdom, I began to try on repparttar 101651 idea of "letting go of my identity" for something that seemed "bigger" and more "evolved" to me. Part way into my wayward fantasy, I realized, she had reached repparttar 101652 fourth stage of Steve Bhaerman's Four Stages Of Knowing. It was clear she belonged there and despite my wanting to be like her, I didn't. The Four Stages Of Knowing is a simple model for understanding human development. I originally heard about it by comedian Swami Beyondananda (Steve Bhaerman's) on a metaphysical radio show. Originally meant to entertain, repparttar 101653 Four Stages actually represent a profound view of repparttar 101654 normal and healthy stages of human evolution. Here are repparttar 101655 four stages: See which stage you find yourself in. 1. You don't know. This is repparttar 101656 stage when you're a baby or a child. You're fresh and new to repparttar 101657 world and you really don't know. It's pure innocence.

True Feelings of Love - Blood

Well all have them don’t we? You have feelings of love, hate, jealousy, and greed. The most influential one of all is Love. It takes hold of us with great passion and strength. It can lead us into temptation, and deliver us from evil.

From my experience of love, looking through my eyes of repparttar wonders that I felt, you can connect and side with me and understand what I felt. Lust is very similar to love. When you love someone, you think about them when you wake up, before you sleep, and also in your dreams. Love is like our blood; it keeps us alive and is everywhere.

Even if we loose our one love, we can still survive, as we have another form of love. Family love, or friends love. But true love is hard to find. It strikes our hearts and fills our minds with feelings of joy, happiness and tranquillity also. Love is all around us. We see couples walking by, showing emotions of love.

When do we know we are in love? What is love? Well love is a word that sum’s up all that we do for someone. If for some unknown reason, we feel happy being around someone, and find when you look at them, you cannot seem to concentrate on anything else, then its love. You become fixated on them with all your hearts desire. Yes, desire plays a big part.

Another word formulated into love is passion. Passion is physical desire, and desire is mental passion, then where does repparttar 101646 word love come in. It appears above all repparttar 101647 heading, repparttar 101648 title, front page of passionate fantasy’s and desirable features.

Love will stand for: Lifts our very existence. When you’re down, you think of a passionate love one, and your way of life changes. No one can bring you down; beauty becomes repparttar 101649 next word doesn’t it? When you’re in love, beauty is always seen.

In movies, we all strive to delve deep into love scenes, or connections of love. We always hope that true love is found and they live happily ever after don’t we? It always seems repparttar 101650 way forward. Through action and adventure we always know somewhere love will find a way. Listen to Celine Dion and her song called ‘Heart’ it always fills me with great power. So by having love in movies, we can feel safe that, if it happens in movies it happens to us. It does, but we don’t know for sure.
