Hi – very great web site you have made. I enjoyed reading this posting. I did want to write a remark to tell you that the design of this site is very aesthetically sweet. I used to be a graphic designer, now I am a copy editor in chief for a marketing firm. I have always enjoyed playing with computers and am trying to learn code in my free time (which there is never enough of lol).

Kris, I love you.

Dill, “New Age” is a catchall term created to help people feel better about the confusion of the world they live in. I’d say more but I’ll save it for a blog post, because who better to explain what “new age” really is than me?

“Whatever it is, take it out and look at it. Otherwise you’re just spinning your wheels.” — That is some great advice right there, and I know you weren’t implying turning red lights green is low risk if you do that all day but I did chuckle just saying. 2 that point tho playa playa:

1. Some people like to piss on the universe and other peeps’ time, I know of few of them cause’ they can be jokes if it ain’t your universe or you got that umbrella so to speak, but

2. I am almost positive a male variation of (1) wrote that NAB email, you probably picked up on it but I am just saying. Sign out is a dead giveaway, as is the “…” before italicized responsible. A sincere person dumb enough to believe that shit wouldn’t be looking for words at that point. Haters be hatin’ while we cakin’ no issues with it, but

Really I just wanna know what new age is. I would bet dollars there’s a wikipedia page on “New Age” that draws on some high school teacher author’s BA and links to various wiki descriptions of yoga types and positions but I thought you might know what’s really good with it. Also I apologize if the yoga bit is ignorant, I wish I was patient enough to do any stretching to relax. If I stretch it’s pre-hockey pre-rugby or pre-skateboarding so I can get better and either hurt athletes or skate spots until a security guard comes along I can hurt with my roundhouse.

BYAHH!

I’m with you on the Universe not really caring whether you do one thing or another. I see the Universe as energy, neutral energy. We have total freedom to create, and yes it does come down to what we are each able to have.

I am over people saying “whatever the Universe has in store for me”, usually with an unconscious faraway look in their eyes. My answer is usually, “well, what do you WANT?’. I see people giving up their own power to this mysterious force out there all the time, and am in agreement completely with you regarding the Universe not being some big daddy or mommy looking over everyone, rewarding or damning as she/he sees fit. This is one reason why we had the Bush administration for far too long; everyone wanted Daddy and Mommy to take care of things and fix them. Even if he was a Bad Dysfunctional Daddy. We all get to wake up and realize what treasure we each have within us, and stop putting it out there on something else.

Thanks for allowing me to rant, NAB. Your blog is great!

i still think one of the easiest way to slice this universal thinking toast (milque, organic sprouted wheat and otherwise) is that “where attention goes, stuff flows”. if i’m looking for a parking spot with an open mind (and perhaps heart), i’m going to notice it more likely than when my mind is busy bitching about how few parking spots there are. there are way more opportunities for us out there than we like to think with our closed and closeted minds; paying attention to these opportunities can look like causation but it ain’t. paying attention leads to seeing more leads to – hopefully – taking right action.

yes, there may also be some mysterious-looking connections between thoughts and events but why trouble ourselves with them when we’re still on step 2 of 1,458 of learning how to pay attention?

Daniel, it’s a parody. You weren’t wrong. And just because I think something is possible, theoretically, doesn’t mean I think it’s likely. Draw whatever conclusion you wish to thoughts and actions — isn’t everything connected anyhow? Feels like we’re slicing semantic bread here. I promise you we’re om the same page.

Bah… for some reason I thought the “New Age” part is meant as some sort of a parody and not a serious belief. Well, anyway, you still write some interesting posts.

Bottom line is.. I don’t believe it. You manifest your thoughts and through them you can manifest your emotions and through all of that you can manifest your actions and through them you can manifest some consequences. But that you can manifest just about anything you believe in strong enough regardless of there being a causal relationship between your thoughts, actions and that event.. I don’t believe it.

I mean, my thoughts create something only because they make me act to create it, not by themselves. It’s not like the electrical patterns that are my thoughts somehow swoosh out of my head and materialize something in front of my eyes, or for that matter anywhere else in the universe, like something coming out of a replicator in Star Trek. And if you claim it does well I’d like a scientific explanation that’s better than what comes down to “Universe works in mysterious ways, and we’ll figure it out some day”.

I guess you subscribe to “The Secret” stuff?

Anyway, interestingly it’s easy to agree with you when you speak of thoughts changing reality in general. We just disagree on the extent to which they can have this power and the method, I suppose.

What, no unicorns? WTF?

I just shouted out to my Crackbook peeps about your bitchiness. Gotta share the NAB wisdom with the minions. They need you.

Word and Yo to your mamma!
