Camping Trip

Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson go on a camping trip. After a good dinner and a bottle of wine, they retire for the night, and go to sleep

 

Some hours later, Holmes wakes up and nudges his faithful friend. "Watson, look up at the sky and tell me what you see."

 

"I see millions and millions of stars, Holmes" replies Watson.

 

"And what do you deduce from that?"

 

Watson ponders for a minute. "Well, astronomically, it tells me that there are millions of galaxies and potentially billions of planets. Astrologically, I observe that Saturn is in Leo. Horologically, I deduce that the time is approximately a quarter past three. Meteorologically, I suspect that we will have a beautiful day tomorrow. Theologically, I can see that God is all powerful, and that we are a small and insignificant part of the universe.

 

But what does it tell you, Holmes?"

 

Holmes is silent for a moment.

 

"Watson, you idiot!" he says. "Someone has stolen our tent!"

The Emotional Scale

 

what is the emotional scale?

 

Your emotions are a feedback system, constantly letting you know the degree of your connectedness to Source and the degree of your focus on what’s in your own very best interests. Essentially, your feelings are guideposts to your mental state. Most people think that we experience an emotion as a reaction to an event; something happens and it triggers a corresponding emotion in a process that we really can’t control. But that’s not really the case. Your power is always in your thoughts, and by shifting those thoughts to better-feeling ones, you can work your way up the emotional scale, from the worst-of-the-worst all the way up to the best-of-the-best.

 

Tune in now to learn exactly how the emotional scale works and how to use it!
