If everything goes according to plan, the world has not ended today 😉 (though Planet Earth and humanity are currently undergoing an extraordinary spiritual awakening – or “consciousness shift”…). And since the world did not end, I suggest we use the opportunity to celebrate Global Orgasm Day! 😉

From the Global Orgasm website:
“This is the 7th year of the Global Orgasm for World Peace, held annually on the December Solstice.
Millions of satistfied people around the world have participated, saying Yes! to World Peace in their own special way.
Through links with the Noosphere Project at Princeton University, and more recently The Center for Subtle Activism, the Global O has been able to contribute in a unique way to the new sciences of the collective mind.
This year the Global O falls on one of the most anticipated dates in human history.
It is a date that to some is either the end, or the beginning, of the world.
Whatever happens, we ask that you vote for a brighter future with your orgasm. Use it to pray for Peace.
With you will be millions of people around the world.”

The symbol below is not just a symbol for the Global O, but an ancient emblem representing our shared basic nature. One of wisdom, compassion, wholeness & bliss. Imagine it, and peace on earth, you dedicate your orgasms.

Are you in?? 😉

R. D. Laing: “We live in a moment of history where change is so speeded up that we begin to see the present only when it is already disappearing.”

After working for 15,5 years working for the same company, I have (though not really voluntarily, but with a good deal 😉 ) decided to move on and pursue new challenges…yes, I resigned! It is still time for change; this *is* 2012 after all…the year of change!

Neale Donald Walsch wrote a book about it, ‘When Everything Changes, Change Everything‘, my 2012 change circle closes just in time! 😉

Ha, the new opportunities on the horizon that I wrote about last year turn out to be new opportunities outside the company, who would have thought!

I guess you now also understand the relevance of the Steve Jobs’ Secrets of Life and 12-12-12 blogposts the past week…

A pretty weird, though a good feeling to walk out the door today with a ‘box-with-stuff’ in my arms…HELLO world!! (don’t die on me tomorrow! 😉 )

Bill Hicks: “It’s just a ride and we can change it any time we want. It’s only a choice. No effort, no work, no job, no savings and money, a choice, right now, between fear and love. The eyes of fear want you to put bigger locks on your door, buy guns, close yourself off. The eyes of love instead see all of us as one.”

It is fantastic to realize what happens when you give a little of your love to one another…others *will* notice it as you can see in the YouTube clip below!

My suggestion to y’all; be consciously aware, be awake, spread some love and make this world a better place! 😉

Og Mandino: “I will love the light for it shows me the way, yet I will endure the darkness for it shows me the stars.”

Ok, ok, this one is a bit cruel, but still…HILARIOUS!! 😉

LoL!!!

Sharon Salzberg: “By prizing heartfulness above faultlessness, we may reap more from our effort because we’re more likely to be changed by it.”

There are enough crows around the house and as of this week there is more than enough snow for a serious crowboard competition…unfortunately the crows in the neighbourhood are not into crowboarding (they are more into stealing cat food… tsss!).

Haha, I wish ‘my crows’ were as cool as the crow in the clip below…HANG LOOSE!!

Jules Renard: “The only man who is really free is the one who can turn down an invitation to dinner without giving an excuse.”

It has been snowing the past days and will continue to snow for the whole coming week it seems; yeah, winter has really started yihaa, 30cm and counting; outside is a true winter wonderland, just in time for a white Xmas, hohoho! 😉

Misha has not really been playing in the snow, at least not while he was aware hehe…today he went in deep and it turns out he adores snow,  he uhh literally *adores* snow…EATING it!?!? 😉

It is good fun to be outside and it is really lovely to see him enjoy the white stuff so much…oh yeah, the coming months will be fun!

Dorothea Brande: “Act as if it were impossible to fail.”

Chuck Palahniuk: “It’s only after we’ve lost everything that we’re free to do anything.”

Norman Fischer: “We all need to have a creative outlet – a window, a space – so we don’t lose track of ourselves.”

Tonight is ‘Julebord‘ night, the traditional Norwegian Xmas dinner/party with work, though I am not joining 🙁 (first time since I moved to Norway). I did have another event today to compensate for it; the celebration/breakfast of Saint Lucy’s Day at kindergarten this morning!

It was Misha’s first and he too took part in the Saint Lucy ceremony. All children were following ‘Saint Lucia’ (one of the kids who was elected to head the procession), and wearing a white gown/shirt, silver belt and crown describing the light with which Lucia overcomes the (Scandinavian) darkness. A really nice experience despite the early wake-up call (05:55h)…WAY too early for both father and son! 😉 Misha took a hit because of this and got a slight fever in the afternoon…so, daddy is home tonight with a not too well feeling little Saint Lucy angel.

Sydney Smith: “Whatever you are by nature, keep to it; never desert your line of talent. Be what nature intended you for and you will succeed.”

Today is 12.12.12, the last day of this century when the day, month and year are the same, nice…AND there is more to the number 12 (let alone three times 12 😉 ):

Simion the Evolutionary Collective: “12 is a number of universal import, widely used; 12 hours of the day, 12 months of the year, 12 in a dozen, 12 zodiac signs, 12 apostles, and 12 days of Christmas, for example.  This is not a coincidence, nor are they about convenience.

Within the 12 you find the number 3; the sacred trinity, third chakra, and number of creation.  It is universal that when you put two things, ideas, or what have you, together, a third is naturally created (a typical example of 1+1=3! 😉 ).

Today (as well as 21.12.12 coming up in 9 days) there are three threes which equals 9; the creational value is tripled and the result is the completion of a cycle, which is a meaning inherent in the number 9.  From this we can plainly see the vibrations at play of creation and completion, in the cycle of development.

The two dates, 12.12.12 and 21.12.12 are divinely linked.  The 12.12.12 is the gateway to what will transpire on 21.12.12.  Thus, the gateway that you align with on the first date will determine what world you see when the gate opens on the following date.  Are we saying it is important what you are doing and being on these dates?  Yes, and particularly where you are and what you are focused upon on 12.12.12 will be significant.  Needless to say, what you will be focused on will likely be determined by all you have done in preparation during this year 2012 and leading up to it.”

Soon I will be able to reveal what *I* have been up to today, and why the above is spot on and makes PERFECT sense!!

And for those of you who think the above is ‘too much’, today also happens to be National Sound Check Day!! 😉

Michel de Montaigne: “I care not so much what I am to others as what I am to myself.”

Steve Jobs: “When you grow up you tend to get told the world is the way it is and you’re life is just to live your life inside the world. Try not to bash into the walls too much. Try to have a nice family, have fun, save a little money. That’s a very limited life. Life can be much broader once you discover one simple fact: Everything around you that you call life was made up by people that were no smarter than you and you can change it, you can influence it, you can build your own things that other people can use……..Once you learn that, you’ll never be the same again.”

Interesting and amazing that this video ‘came to me’ just some days ago…Steve is O-SO right!!!

Farrah Gray: “In life we don’t get what we want, we get in life what we are. If we want more we have to be able to be more, in order to be more you have to face rejection.”
