The moment I finally fell for my husband when we were dating was when I found out he had a complete set of Tarzan novels to match my own! :love: I read the Tarzan and Venus series when still a kid, but didn't have access to the Mars series until after I was grown up, and thus, the Mars series doesn'...

Life seems to enjoy being difficult for me. Lots of times recently I've felt like just not caring. I need to get past that type of mentality, and focus on all the things I need to do Seems to me you should focus on finding a way to want to do the things you think you need to do. Attitude is everyth...

Hey, Imp... my son was reading Tarzan novels at the age of 6. I'd been reading them to him for about a year before that, and then we moved and I didn't have time to read to him any more... so he started reading them himself. He read most of the series before moving onto more juvenile stuff like the ...

I tend to be leery of doctors! ;) They always want to give you drugs or cut on you. *shudder* If I can fix whatever's wrong with me by just thinking in a certain way- then I'm much happier, since I can't trust modern medicine because I always seem to have non-standard reactions to drugs. :roll: I th...

My aversion to jewelry began years ago, Rowanberry, long before I started dabbling in ... whatever you want to call what I'm dabbling in! ;) Psionics, maybe? Anyway, I wore that wedding ring for about 12 years, and every day of that time, I was always fiddling with it, moving it around on my finger,...

What do you do with the crystals, Tigg? I've tried wearing a couple of different stones as jewelry after reading what they were supposed to help with, but I've never been able to stand them. I've got three necklaces with supposedly helpful stones in them, but when I try to wear them they feel heavy ...

I've never gone to anyone else for any kind of alternative medical treatment other than chiropractic care. I'm too much of a do-it-yourself person. :) Plus, the thought of letting a stranger that close to me (mentally/psychically speaking) is intolerable. I looked into Reiki once, actually contacted...

And lastly, the idea of reincarnation seems to appeal to people who would like to have been Cleopatra in an earlier life - I mean, no one ever seems to have lived as a humble serf in previous centuries, have they? One of the hints I've had about a previous life was a horrible, very realistic dream ...

I've got lots to say on this subject, but apparently we are going to have a server change this week, and anything I say will be lost? A quickie headache help I played with last week: I'd read that headaches are commonly caused by vasodialation or vasoconstriction. I get one headache per month that i...

Your reaction reminds me of ME a decade ago, Vison, when I still believed that nothing supernatural was real. The deaths of my grandparents was intolerable, because I had the world view that this was IT. Life was over, finis. Nothing more. Nothing the minister said could help because I knew it was a...

Heathen describes me better than Pagan. I started out completely non-religious, turned atheist, mellowed to agnostic, and finally opened my mind and started learning! I've read a lot of books about Wicca, and energy healing and psychic stuff and dreams and kept the ideas that work for me. "Magi...

Hi everyone! I'm so glad I finally broke out of the one MB mindset!

Thanks for that, Alatar! :)
