Spotted Owl
This is a very beautiful picture I found accidently on google. Stumbling upon pictures like these made me come to realize that spotted owls really enjoy sitting on mossy branches. It struck me as odd. My spirit animal is a spotted owl... And I always had a soft spot in my heart for mossy branches. Call me crazy if you wish but I always found them to be a very beautiful thing and they have always made me very happy. Perhaps my inner owl was trying to indicate its presence to me as a child through my love for mossy branches. In that case, I no longer have doubt.

Native Americans: What is meant to be
"... Time evolves and comes to a place where it renews again. There is first a purification time. Then there is renewal time. We are getting really close to this time now. We were told, we would see America come and go. In a sense America is dying, from within. Because we forgot the instructions on how to live on earth.
"Everything is coming to a time where prophesy and man's inability to live on earth in a spiritual way will come to a crossroad of great problems. It's the Hopi belief, it's our belief that if you are not spiritually connected to the earth, understand the spiritual reality on how to live on the earth, it's likely you will not make it.
"When Columbus came that began what we term as the first world war. Because along with him came everybody from Europe. By the end of the second world war, we were in America only 800,000 from 60 million to 800,000. We were almost exterminated in America.
"Everything is spiritual. Everything has a spirit. Everything is brought to you by a Creator. One Creator. Some people call Him God, some people call Him Buddha, some people call Him Allah, some people call Him other names. We call Him Grandfather.
"We're here on earth only a few winters, then we go to the spirit world. The spirit world is more real than most of us believe. The spirit world is everything. Over 95% of our bodies is water. In order to stay healthy, you have to drink good water. When the European first came here, Columbus, we could drink out of any river. If the Europeans had lived the Indian way when they came here, we would still be drinking the water. Why? Because water is sacred. The air is sacred.
"Our DNA is made of the same DNA as the tree. The tree breathes what we exhale. When the tree exhales, we need what the tree exhales. So, we have a common destiny with the tree. We are all from the earth. When the earth, the water, the atmosphere is corrupted, then it will create its own reaction. Mother is reacting. In the Hopi prophesy they say the storms and floods will become greater.
"To me it's not a negative thing to know that there will be great changes. It's not negative. It's evolution. When you look at it as evolution, it's time. Nothing stays the same.
"You should learn how to plant something, that's the first connection. You should treat all things as spirit and realize that we are ONE family. It's never something like the end. It's like life, there is no end to life."

Lucid Dreaming
Is when you consciously realize you are dreaming, while in the dream state, you are lucid dreaming. So, lucid dreaming requires conscious awareness of dreaming while in the dream. Normally it occurs after a sudden insight like noticing an impossible event, and you realize, “This is a dream!”
Children, who suffer from recurring nightmares, sometimes naturally learn how to become consciously aware in their dreams. They realize that the bogeyman only appears in their dream, and so then the next time they see the bogeyman, they conclude, “Hey, this must be a dream” and become lucidly aware. Some of the most prolific lucid dreamers are those who learned it as a child.
Experienced lucid dreamers have numerous reports of seeking out and receiving valid telepathic and precognitive information while consciously aware in the dream state

Out of Body Experience Technique
OOBE from Lucid Dreams :
Lucid dreams are dreams in which the dreamer is aware that he is dreaming. In a Lucid Dream a person is already "out" of his body.
In order to achieve Astral Projection from Lucid Dreams, you have to first become obsessed with OBEs and you must really DESIRE it. You must read everything you can about it. You must think about it every free moment that you have.
Once your mind is besotted with the thought of OOBEs we will need triggers and affirmations so that you have a Lucid Dream. During the day keep thinking: 'Tonight I'm going to have a Lucid Dream'. Remind yourself of this all day long. And - and this is the important part - keep asking yourself during the day "Am I dreaming now?"
With a few days of practice, you'll have programmed your sub-conscious to induce a Lucid Dream.
Once you are in a Lucid Dream, and know that you are dreaming, you would also know that you are not in your body. You can then will yourself to see your bedroom. In most cases, when you do this, your dreamland will suddenly disappear and you will find yourself in your bedroom, floating above your body.
[ Note what this means. If you are dreaming, most of the time you can be aware that you are in fact dreaming; and once you have acknowledged that you are dreaming, you can tell yourself to wake up. If you continue to think, 'wake up, wake up, wake up' then you will eventually experience a breathless, paralyzed sensation, but do not be shocked or it will be painful for your body. But then you will notice a white orb above you, and that is your spirit.]

Is it true?
Many people question the ability for a person to have a sixth sense, or rather an extrasensory perception (ESP), the ability to sense things from the non-physical world. One of the big arguements is that a person cannot anticipate what will happen in the future; but if you think of this in the manner of the 4th dimension, which is Time itself... Time is not real, time is only measurable by distance going at a certain rate. Ex., different planets have a different rate at which time passes because they are different distances from the sun. So how can one say that a person cannot predict the future? If time is only the amount of a distance, going at a certain rate, then why cant a person anticipate something that isnt measured in "time" but in distance, in the flow, in the web of material itself?
I personally find myself very interested in the sixth sense; I find it as an ability that the majority of humans have greatly lost. The sixth sense can also be somewhat related to the third eye. They are all in sense the same thing; they all involve interaction with the non-material world, the ability to do something that normal people cannot do. And perhaps that is why it has wrung up such controversy; because many people do not have that ability, and so they do not believe it to be true. I hope that the way in which I'm thinking doesn't offend anyone; but I am really just giving my own thoughts about this controversy.

"You ask me to plow the ground. Shall I take a knife and tear my mother's bosom? Then when I die she will not take me to her bosom to rest."You ask me to dig for stones! Shall I dig under her skin for bones?

Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency [G6PD]
* It's an X-linked recessive hereditary disease [ dna; inherited] characterised by abnormally low levels of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase a metabolic enzyme involved in the pentose phosphate pathway, especially important in red blood cell metabolism.
[G6PD -a cytosolic enzyme in the pentose phosphate pathway a metabolic pathway that supplies reducing energy to cells (such as erythrocytes) by maintaining the level of the co-enzyme nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH). The NADPH in turn maintains the level of glutathione in these cells that helps protect the red blood cells against oxidative damage;Of greater quantitative importance is the production of NADPH for tissues actively engaged in biosynthesis of fatty acids and/or isoprenoids, such as the liver, mammary glands, adipose tissue(fat), and the adrenal glands(They are chiefly responsible for releasing hormones in conjunction with stress ). ]
*G6PD is widely distributed in many species from bacteria to humans.
*causes acute hemolytic anemia in the presence of simple infection, ingestion of fava beans, or reaction with certain medicines, antibiotics, antipyretics, and antimalarials.
[[* It's similar to the deficiency named " Hemolytic anemia" ( anemia is a decrease in the number of red blood cells, or or a less than normal quantity of hemoglobin in the blood; and hemoglobin is the iron-containing oxygen-transport metalloprotien in the red blood cells of all vertebrates ; Hemolosis is the rupturing of red blood cells and the release of hemoglobin into surrounding fluid (e.g., blood plasma).]
Hemolytic anemia is the abnormal breakdown of red blood cells either in the capillaries or elsewhere in the body .It has numerous possible causes, ranging from relatively harmless to life-threatening.]]
