EASTER - PÅSK!


This is the way easter used to be - all the kids dressed up as witches going trick or treating - yes that is what you should do on SKÄRTORSDAGEN - i.e. the thursday of Easter.
Did you know that EASTER comes from the Babylonian (?) godess Ishtar?  At least that is what I have heard.  Some sort of fertility godess - with eggs and bunnies as her symbol.

Had easter dinner yesterday, with egg-searching in the garden and the guests having to paint boiled eggs.. haha.

Anyhow, getting older. For sure.  Discovered high bloodpressure when at the doctor's the other day.  Second day of medication.  Seems to work - thank goodness!

It is my Birthday!

… And I called my dad to thank him for having put my life in motion that day, 59 years and 9 months ago.

I hope my three kids will feel the same kind of feeling, when they turn 59 - and everything has turned out rather good after all!

Love you kids, and love you, dad
 - and my angel mom - love you too,

This year of the GALLOPING WOODEN HORSE...

HORROR -- wars, trouble and MAYHEM!
Read this lady's predictions - seems pretty accurate:
http://susanlevitt.com/astrology/horse-year-2014/


Myself - I am disappointed, scared, shaken, disturbed and weirdly confident that I will land anyhow.  BUT WHAT A RIDE!

Thank Goodness for this man:

Fearlessness is generated when you can appreciate uncertainty,, when you have faith in the impossibility of these interconnected components remaining static and permanent. You will find yourself, in a very true sense, preparing for the worst while allowing for the best. You become dignified and majestic. These qualities enhance your ability to work, wage war, make peace, create a family, and enjoy love and personal relationships. By knowing that something is lying in wait for you just around the bend, by accepting that countless potentialities exist from this moment forward, you acquire the skill of prevasive awareness and forsight like that of a gifted general, not paraniod but prepared.
-Dzongsar Khyentse Rinpoche
