		<description>Hmmm,
Seems my post didn&#039;t work... Down under refers to Australia. It&#039;s position in the southern hemisphere. Something like we say we are THE STATES.

You can look it up at wikipedia for more info

		<description>Lisa:

What do you mean &quot;living down under&quot;?  I&#039;ve heard of it before but not sure what you&#039;re referencing here.

As for not being all &quot;dolled up&quot; b4 going on ooVoo video, don&#039;t worry - it isn&#039;t a video competition!  LOL

Talk to you soon!</description>

		<description>Stephen,
Yes, I find Aussies pretty fascinating by nature. I gravitate to them and have been fortunate find a very deep connection with another virtual assistant living &quot;down under&quot;. Actually she is so inspiring to me, she just won the Janet Jordan Achievement award for 2008 in the virtual assistant arena. (I should post this on your what am I grateful post). Another local here in town moved here from the Brisbane area and we used to do coffee break every morning when I was at the J-O-B! 

It was really nice meeting you on oovoo, I have to remember that I don&#039;t always get dolled up before doing a video, I&#039;m so over that! 

Have a grand weekend!

		<description>Joan:

You bring up important points about perception.  Interestingly enough, even when through inaction, we&#039;ve taken action - to do nothing.  

For instance, suppose you had the option of going to an event but you decided not to and stayed home to watch TV with a bowl of popcorn and a pop.  You&#039;re sitting on the couch, the result of not going to the event.  Some people would say that was an act of &quot;inaction.&quot;  I disagree.

You&#039;ve actually taken action - there you are sitting on the couch and building calories.  Your body is taking in popcorn and drinking carbonated soda, the results of which are causing bodily movements.  That&#039;s action.  It&#039;s not the kind we normally think of but there it is.

Bottom line?  Every thing we do or don&#039;t do brings about some kind of activity whether it happens physically or inside our bodies/minds.  Here&#039;s something else that takes place....you&#039;re watching TV, munching on a snack.  What&#039;s happening here?  Your brain is registering whatever your eyes are picking up from the screen.

Interesting, isn&#039;t it?  That&#039;s food for thought for you!</description>

		<description>Lisa:

I&#039;m so glad you wrote a note to Peter.  As you can see, he enjoyed hearing from you and the others.

BTW, it was great &quot;meeting&quot; you through ooVoo!  I look forward to having a video conference with you at length, perhaps after the holiday weekend is over.  Should be fun!  

Meanwhile, like I&#039;ve wished the others, you also have a fun-filled holiday weekend.  Feel free to contact me anytime on ooVoo and if I&#039;m around, we&#039;ll make time to chat, okay?  :)</description>

		<description>Jennifer:

I know what you mean when you say &quot;it almost makes me want to lose a sense so I can be more in tune.&quot;  But like you said, it&#039;s better to be grateful for what you have - you can still tune in even with all the faculties you have.  It&#039;s just a matter of &quot;listening&quot; to your inner self and trust your instincts.  Easier said than done but not impossible.

Enjoy your holiday weekend!</description>

		<description>Linda:

Welcome!  So glad you came by poking around.  I hope you enjoy what you find.  

There&#039;s a butterfly story (&quot;The Tale of the Blue Butterfly that Stopped to Say Hello.&quot;  Here&#039;s the link to it:  http://tinyurl.com/696eky   It was a surreal experience.  

Although I couldn&#039;t exactly get it to land on my hand or knee, it certainly hung around long enough to make its presence known!  

Have a great weekend!</description>

		<description>Stephen -

You said &quot;Actually, this is ironic in some ways. In a way, we need to expect good things to happen to us but we also need to let them go and let them happen naturally. Kind of like a catch 22 situation, wouldn’t you think?&quot;  When I was a kid I was very much aware of this.  I imagined it (good things, things I wanted, etc) as a butterfly.  If I chased it it was always beyond my reach.  If I sat quietly the butterfly could land on my knee.  (Imaging a field of green grass, wildflowers, and trees around the edges is important to the visualization.  :-D )

I just found your blog a couple of days ago (linked from Alexander Kjerulf&#039;s blog to his interview).  I&#039;ve been poking around and am looking forward to reading more.</description>

		<description>Peter:

Well, once again your interview was a smash hit here.  That means your readers love you to death.  They&#039;re interested enough to come over here and learn more about what makes you tick.  Way cool, Peter.

Have a great Memorial Day weekend and let&#039;s stay in touch.  Be sure to let me know if there&#039;s anything else I can do to help you.</description>
