Choosing our destiny - 1

Good morning everybody! We people in this world always wanted to have a good and better life for their family. Most of us doing nothing and instead just depend on our God what they plan. Yes, it’s right. God have something in each of every one of us. But the thing is that we should not all depend it to God. Don’t give Him all the responsibility. We have to do things also and only God will guide us in everything we will do.

Many people want to know if they have a good life ahead of them. Sometimes they have felt the need to see a fortune teller. And, the better the future looks, the happier we feel. But, there’s no need to fall victim to fortune-tellers who will just rip us off or feed us the wrong information. Great sages have a lot to teach us about our future. According to them, the future is predictable, and our destiny is in our own hands:

1. The material world is full of suffering, and we’re destined to suffer—from diseases, old age and death. There’s no escape from the miseries of material existence.

2. You work to get the things you want, then you lose them. There’s no guarantee for security in the material dimension. When we die, all material things are taken away from us. You’re driven out of your body, and you can’t bring anyone or anything with you.

Passion fo Life

When I'm in my free time I used to read some quotations, inspirational words and verses. These are some good words that i can share with you all. Passion for life means living out your vocation. I suspect that most of us are aware that at some point in our lives we had one or more "burning desires." As I said regarding socialization, our parents and tribes want such "burnings" to somehow be inoffensive, so that we can fit in.

For most, our passions and desires were something our parents teased us about—and if that didn’t discourage us from stepping out of the norm, some gentle or not so gentle form of repression was applied.

Parents have dreams and aspirations for their kids, and those dreams and aspirations are framed by the lifestyle and culture of the parents. Most parents freak out when they see the kinds of things that their kids are passionate about—that "turn them on." So they do what they can to force the kid to fit in. They suggest that the thing that they’re passionate about is just a passing interest, or a hobby. Or they declare it off-limits altogether.

Kids don’t know any better, and actually listen to their parents, so they learn to tighten down and block their passion. From a Bodywork perspective, this involves freezing the pelvis, and tightening the muscles that are just above the pelvis.

Baskets and Textiles

In the world’s new interest in crafts and collectibles two items have come to the fore: baskets and textiles. Ironically, the advance of technology has brought people back to the primary crafts as items of concern and care.

The many different peoples and their divergent lifestyles have given the craft a multitude of unusual and specialized forms. The union of these forms with selected materials to create useful tools has put the users into a unique relationship with their environment. The baskets utilize the natural materials of the environment, as in the case of fish traps and creels, to build the ethic and style of a culture. The true appreciation of a basket as a work of skill and artistry comes with its use. However, a layman can analyze the union of a selected materials with all its inherent characteristics and see that it is unquestionably suited to a particular form and use.

When one looks carefully at the fold basketry of the Philippines, one can always notice the care with which the gauge of the material is scaled to the size of the basket. To too, the finishing details such as the fit of a cover, the insertion of a handle, the use of a natural lock, all evidence the eye of master craftsmen who take pride in their work.

There is a logic to the use of light natural materials in basketry. The form created satisfy the demands of heavy work, repair ability and flexibility. Good baskets don’t just happen, they are carefully planned. It remains for the general public to develop the discerning eye that will appreciate the details of form and construction.
