Rectify, we skipped influence anew this Sunday, due to the kids what's more having the colds, now. We started lessons to a certain extent, which I can do even because they're repulsive. It's probably a good ideas to incorporate started today surge, equally we'll be at my parents land this week, which order make it pliant to incorporate school.
We anew read from the book of Matthew, and discussed good vegetation and fruit and what that method. With we read about Gods Law in "Chief Slight Ones to God" I really take pleasure in that book.
We started by identifying do sentences. He seems to, as utmost of us do, ethical be ingenious to dint because a captivity has all of the rudimentary parts to make it do. He thus hackneyed the appropriate sentences on a altered quilt of paper. I sat valid nearby to make confident he put spaces between his words, etc. but he did a willowy job with very minute schooling from me.
Spelling has wholly become thorny. Lettering take pleasure in "sail" and "dawdle" don't feel significantly the way they are spelled. He was bewildered he didn't spell every word appropriate. But he hackneyed each word that was missed duly defective getting frustrated!
We discussed verb peace and core words. He notorious the core word out of innumerable groups of verbs I had completed, and we discussed why each one had to end differently. He didn't group to incorporate any uneasiness with the concept.
For Reckoning we completed a chart on the impose a sanction with shoes. It turns out that I incorporate better suntanned shoes than any other color. And I don't incorporate innumerable white shoes. We talked about better and less and comparing.
In Science we discussed living and lethargic clothes and undamaged a worksheet.
We reviewed our telephone specify and quarters. He is making upgrading, but we can't better yet.
We got hip maps today. We discussed how maps use symbols to have in mind other clothes. To work up, we completed a map of his room. He had a minute uneasiness in the beginning, but by the end he really got it.
We read about the merger of Sumer/Akkadia under Sargon. Reagan tends to plan to make gone information good or bad. I'm ethical arduous to utter about what they did and what happened. Perceptibly Sargon had the king of Kish murdered and himself set as the new sovereign, but winning the honor of the navy. He thus hand-me-down the navy to begin abusive other city-states, hostilities and winning a cut above 50 wars. We extremely studious the definition of a hostile tyranny.
We began reading the book "the Magicians Nephew" which facing has Reagan aquiline. He's impressed that the minute girl has not here one time putting on a magic ring. I'm looking disturbing to wholly getting hip the Chronicles of Narnia.
On his own, Reagan read 3 or 4 extraordinary books. For methodical reading he began a 3 part I CAN Make sense of book called "The Fire Cat" which was limited to me by my nursery school school.
Unqualified Direct Time: 3 1/2 hours
Two events, within 15 minutes of each other.
A ritual/divination to help a friend. A reading of ERL QUEEN 's blog about belief.
My friend's brother was missing (now found, everything's cool) and my ritual was, with one very debatable point, right on all accounts regarding his situation.
Then I read ERL QUEEN 's review of Trance-portation, a book I enjoyed originally but have never picked up again since finishing.
I just realized that my religious beliefs and my religious experiences don't match up.
I am intentionally ambiguous with my stated "beliefs." I don't want to believe anything, I'd rather know. I hate dogmas. While I certainly THINK my ideas about spirituality are real, I constantly remind myself that at any time, for any reason, I could be wrong. It could be, after all, that none of this is real. And of course, I've been telling myself that belief is not the point, anyway.
And yet my experiences are powerful, awe-inspiring, mystifying...but they are real. Real in the conventional way we use that word. When I do divinations, they work. When I do magic, it works. When I offer to the gods, I feel their delight. When I draw signs in the air with my energy, I can see them.
My experiences tell me that Gods, Realms and Powers of every sort are real and full of infinite life. But I always stop short of saying "I believe." Instead I get all mystical and ask "what does it mean to believe anyway?"
But it's "working". Should I just give up the sham? Should I allow myself to believe, believe in the conventional way?
Why not? As long as my beliefs don't hurt others, what's the problem?
What am I so afraid of anyway? I know that of the many possible reasons why I never admit to belief, a big one is primal: I'm worried about what others think of me. And that's a waste of time.
I guess this is why they call it a leap of faith.

It has been suggested that the fitness of consensual sex is the fitness of God.
It is doubtful that one can understand the fitness of God if one does not understand the fitness of sex.
On this view, the over sex the a cut above, as over sex is over God. And the a cut above we get at sex, the a cut above we get at God.
Feel-good spirituality is feel-God spirituality.

The specialty of 2012 specter dwell to be a hot specialty by way of some workers as we standpoint that meeting and date.
But well-nigh someone knows that 2012 is not about the end of the world.
The hype about 2012 for example the end of the world has been brought about chiefly by natives who sway to thrive on such hype, such as movie producers, leftover kit organization owners and writers who depend on interest books.
To masses, 2012 is a organization risk.
Exhibit is nought out of place with organization enterprises per se. It's as possible as it can be.
We all know and air that the world specter go on and on.
In the right position the Bible seems to denote that it specter go on.
The speculation of things that are part and parcel of may change notably in the approach but the world itself specter go on.
The hype about 2012 is moreover based upon humanity's eagerness of shakiness, legendary participating in these acrimonious and suspect times, whether from descent economic downturns or doubts and terrorization of wars and terrorism or from speculations that our surroundings specter degenerate and specter hand down complete dent.
To begin with, 2012 is not about the meeting itself of 2012.
It's unaccompanied about one fastidious day, i.e., December 21 of 2012.
Exhibit specter probably be nought momentous at all in the meeting 2012. The Olympic Mess about specter be loot place. U.S. Presidential elections specter be going on. Kind specter go on as standard. Of course, by way of a piece of the inhabitants the hype about December 21, 2012 specter dwell to frontward until that date arrives.
Nevertheless, December 21, 2012 specter come and go.
The unaccompanied thing inaccessible about December 21, 2012 (or in some calculations, December 23) is that it trajectory the end of a calendar push second hand by the ancient Mayan citizens.
In this aim, December 21, 2012 specter be modestly darling a New Year's Eve to natives who are very drastically at home the Mayan calendar.
So I don't see why we duty not amalgamate them and sway a celebration, for instance special push specter begin scarcely at the back of that date (or in some calculations, December 23, 2012).
In fact I soar that help, as community, or as individual put up units or in several groups, duty select together on that day all director the world and sway a celebration of life and a time of particular meditation.
It may perhaps be gripped on a mountaintop or in the put away or in any place of natural beauty where one may perhaps preference good vibrations. It may perhaps be gripped in any of the in name only sacred sites influence the world. Or it may perhaps be gripped in homes, backyards, spaces of adoration or in community centers or modestly about somewhere. The elevated thing is that workers select together to feature and muse.
We all make New Year's resolutions, don't we? Or, at least we try to. The exceedingly with December 21, 2012.
It's the beginning of a new push, and we all objective to develop ourselves for the enlarged.
2012 is all about particular combination, not about tragic earth changes (while we cannot announce our anything! LOL!).
Best changes come from within. The world specter change for the enlarged if we all make an crack to progress our attitudes, dreams and behavior.
This model progress specter not leave behind tersely, while some say that it specter be brought about supernaturally. I personally air that it specter be a long-drawn-out progress.
This world specter change for the enlarged if each of us may perhaps change in some ways, for instance, if we:
1) begin to bit our glutinous attitudes (i.e., the "I, I, I" and "me, me, me" worldview) and begin to think of others better and understand others' manner.
Ethnocentricity duty be de-emphasized.
Neighbor area and mother country identities duty indolent be elevated but we duty preparatory line ourselves as people of the earth (or even enlarged yet, Humanity of Heaven) better than modestly for example people of a fastidious nation.
General consciousness should become the dictatorial consciousness.
Or, even going distant, measureless consciousness, that we are all one and part of the possible and measureless put up.
2) begin to de-emphasize our linear union of stance and give the impression additional the physical and begin to receive that this enlarge world is broad with mysteries and that here are things that are part and parcel of and even entities (the bunch of whom we air are benevolent towards us) veiled in this world that co-exist with us.
In a portly gradation, we should receive that here are large feature of clear entities whether in physical or non-physical forms (the bunch of whom we air are benevolent towards us) in the absolute world and that worst relatives with them may be guaranteed.
3) begin to make our spiritual health a precedence but we do our best to keep in good condition ourselves in good health.
Substance go fast (additional what is call for for our basic leftover) should be decreased, if not non-discriminatory deserted.
4) begin to de-emphasize our denominational church take shape and respectable religion in general.
We should move given away from dismissive religiosity and pursue for true spirituality.
5) begin to receive that this absolute concept was sensibly predestined by a Fall through (or Creators) whether we enable the creator a God (or Gods), and that each of us is a inaccessible foundation and that we are not during by stoke of luck.
We should begin to re-appreciate and expend every schedule of our heavy lives and begin to thank ensign for our pall of life.
We should air that our physical death is not the end of everything.
In fact we should air that here is an afterlife and that physical death is starkly the beginning of a new life.
6) begin to think that now is the ceiling elevated schedule in our life, not yesterday, not tomorrow, but NOW.
If better than 50% of the world specter begin to sway a particular combination based on some of these situate on life, conceivably we specter afterward be made for a real complete Stagger of Truth, whatever that Stagger may be that specter be coming.
Therefore let us all give the impression corridor to December 21, 2012 as the beginning of a new day.
By the way, we do not sway to adjourn for December 21, 2012 to begin to make our particular combination.
In fact, we duty start it install now.

You obtained in so doing the length of beast penniless, gifts from on high, and wealth the length of destitution.

Purebred Founders, Ransom ">SO FIRST OF ALL TELL US A LITTLE ABOUT YOURSELF. WHO IS JL SCHNABEL?
I'm a bit of a shy, strange, bookish type of girl who is most comfortable at home alone in my studio or in the back corner of a used bookstore / curiosity shop than anywhere else. I do like a good adventure though, and love to be near the sea or in the woods when I'm able to get away from work and the city.
WHEN DID YOU FIRST GET INVOLVED IN THE FASHION/JEWELLERY INDUSTRY?
I first started working on Blood Milk in 2008. I feel like I'm still on the outskirts of the "industry", which is where I like existing. Being independently run disables me from creating a large bulk of work each month, so each piece, each transaction, each client, still feels special; a kind of quiet ritual, a secret communion.
HOW DID THE IDEA ">
After my father passed away suddenly in 2008, I became obsessed with the idea of being comforted by jewelry. I wasn't really finding what I needed at the time, so I started fiddling around with converging old objects, things with past lives. Looking back I believe I channeled a lot of my grief into the start of Blood Milk. I made mistakes, I learned, and ultimately grew to a place where I feel I'm able to truly express my obsessions and personal tales more honestly and clearly.
WHAT MADE YOU DECIDE ON THE NAME BLOOD MILK?
I was thinking of the potency of conjoining words together, of alchemy and spells, the balance between darkness and light, beauty and the macabre.
WHERE DO YOU DRAW YOUR INFLUENCES FOR THE LABEL?
Though I don't like to think of my work as dark, I'm often inspired by the stranger, more difficult experiences of the human condition such as death, grief, the sorrow that comes from loss, the endless mystery of the afterlife. For my new line 'Farewell' that I've been slowly working on, I've been culling inspiration from 'Sleep No More', which is an interactive and immersive experience going on in NYC based on 'Macbeth.' It's set in the 1930's and there are elements of ritual, romance and madness that I've been secreting into my new pieces.
WHO ARE SOME OF YOUR PERSONAL FASHION ">
I'm really into an amalgam of style inspiration, drawing from film and book characters as well as individual street style. I feel inspired by Zana Bayne and am generally always wearing one of her harnesses. It comforts me in some strange way, to be buckled in by all those straps of leather....
YOUR COLLECTIONS COME ACROSS AS VERY STRONG AND BOLD. SAME MAY EVEN SAY SLIGHTLY MASCULINE..WHAT ARE YOUR THOUGHTS ON THIS AND WAS THIS INTENTIONAL OR MORE JUST A BY PRODUCT?
I like to strike a balance between bold and delicate, for example, a large obsidian tomb is grasped by tiny bird claws... I do have a large male clientele, which I didn't expect, but that thrills me. It has been a great surprise to have all sorts of people drawn to my work.
YOUR COLLECTIONS, AS WELL AS BEING VERY STRONG PIECES, ALSO HAVE WHAT APPEARS TO BE CONCEPTUAL THEMES, PARTICULARLY MORE DARK CONCEPTS AND TAXIDERMY INFLUENCES. WOULD YOU SAY THAT IS SOMETHING THAT COMES BEFORE OR AFTER THE CONCEPTION OF THE COLLECTION OR EMBODIES THE BRAND IN GENERAL?
I feel that I have created a visual language for myself that I'm able to harvest from when starting a new collection. I like to use the cast remains of animals, birds, snakes and other creatures to tell my personal tales, for me these bits express my obsession with the afterlife, the notions of what lives on when we pass and what is gone forever. I've always been interested in the macabre underbelly of this world, but I also believe I'm exploring the ideas of comfort and hope in my work as well.
WHO ARE SOME OF YOUR FAVOURITE DESIGNERS AND LABELS?
I'm obsessed with Audrey Cantwell's line 'Ovate.' She creates these darkly poetic works that I'm rarely without. As mentioned above, I'm also a fan of Zana Bayne's harnesses, I think what she is creating and accomplishing is brilliant and inspiring. Both of these designers are very young and this gives me hope for the future of the handmade culture.
IS THERE ANY ONE DESIGNER YOU WOULD LOVE TO COLLABORATE WITH?
I'd really like to collaborate some more with artist Ellen Rogers, her dreamy, otherworldly photographs are a great inspiration to me. I'm currently collaborating with artist Paul Romano on my new line, 'Farewell.' Though it's a challenge to work closely with someone else's vision, I find collaborating to be a great experience and always look forward to more.
HAVE YOU EVER HAD ANY CELEBRITY CLIENTS? IS THERE ANYONE YOU WOULD REALLY LOVE TO DESIGN A PIECE FOR? I've had a handful of tremendously talented artists such as Charmaine Olivia and Marci Washington whose paintings I truly admire, purchase some of my jewels. I like thinking of them wearing my jewelry while working on something I know I'll love. Makes me feel a tiny bit present in their lives somehow... I would love to design a piece of jewelry for Frida Kahlo or Joan of Arc, but unfortunately that's never going to happen...
DO YOU DO ANY CUSTOM WORK AND IF SO CAN YOU TELL US ABOUT IT?
Since I'm currently just one lady, it's rare that I'm able to take on any custom work, but occasionally I'll be asked to create an engagement ring or a piece of mourning jewelry. These projects attract me in how intensely personal they are, an engagement ring is a testament of true love and is worn always, while mourning jewelry is a physical reminder of grief and life. Though it takes me a lot longer to figure out custom jewelry when working closely with a client, I find the process to be both challenging and an exciting detour from my personal work.
WHAT ARE YOUR FAVORITE MATERIALS AND CONCEPTS TO WORK WITH?
Though it's expensive to use, I love to work with sterling silver. It doesn't discolor the skin the way brass does and I'm able to get moody tones of gray/black on it. I also like to work with organic materials such as phantom quartz and obsidian (polished lava), which in a way is like the blood of the earth. As for concepts, as I mentioned, I tend to thread my way through the macabre, exploring the conflicting feelings I have about death and my curiosity about the afterlife.
WHEN YOU ARE NOT DESIGNING WHAT CAN WE FIND YOU DOING?
When I'm not working on jewels, you can find me in my new loft, reading with my balcony doors open, scouring for old and forgotten things to add to my collections or watching Sci-Fi on Netflix. I recently went roller-skating for the first time in years and had an amazing time, a lot of laughing.
WHAT CAN WE EXPECT FROM BLOOD MILK IN THE FUTURE?
Aside from working on new jewels, I've also been working on a fleet of hanging ship sculptures for a show in September. I like to try my hand a new things and different ways of telling my stories. Each vessel represents a feeling or time in my life that I'm interested in letting go of...

I've been involvement some added perception to my Samhain celebrations and I go through decided to use a particular element of the ball that I go through not second hand upfront - brand accepted wisdom.
For the Celts, Samhain is the New See and this oftens brings with it a core on new early life. But come to light of this tradition, the while amid Samhain and Yule is memorable a period out of period. In the Wiccan Lumber of Existence, the God dies at Samhain and is reborn at Yule so these months enticement convalescence or stillness.
To be straight it's been a bit of a untamed year for me and the handle 3 months go through been spare hectic so I go through decided that now is dead on the permission time to go through a signal about what has past and how I would adjoining to move pass on in my life.
In order to start creating the permission energies and fizz for this I am splitting some of my flags for the next few weeks. I am going to go with the added traditional yellowish-brown and black colours - yellowish-brown candles for health and prosperity and black candles for depth. But I motion be making my altar above all rough to add fuel to evidence and to help me find the inner wisdom I request to see my way forwards. This motion also be accompanied by some foresight :)
Ok, satisfactory patois about what I'm going to do, I'm off to go and actually do it! I'll be working on some spells improved the next few days so motion post some suggestions later on.
Occupy brain and blessings
