news is what happens to you is news to me

Love the sentiment.
There can only be your personal subjective experience.
Lots of good advice on this thread.
Good to share though
All feelings expressed on your first post Dj are valid and normal as we grow spiritually.
I second Eckhart Tolle The Power of Now as a great read. The book made sense to me of a lot of things that were a puzzle.
Only concern I ever have and its not personal is that as we have a collective consciousness all the negativity concerning 2012 could cause it to occur in other peoples news.
The Mayans may have been brilliant mathematicians but they didn't worship a loving god, thousand of young virgins sacrificed, hearts ripped out of living beings. I wouldn't be in a hurry to take their thoughts on our future too seriously.
