I have a vision the expands beyond anything that has been considered in a long time. I have a dream that people will one day have the reason to be kinder to each other. To not live in Drama, because they actually learn to deal with stress and static. I have a dream of a healthy society that knows the value of good eating. Not just eating what is available.. My dream involves the state of our Consumer society and how it has depleted our earths resources to only 4%. Its odd that we only use 1% of what we buy... and now that 99% is being shipped overseas and dumped. Creating Dis~ease for this earth. So In my Dream I believe in Co operative.. where people will offer there services for 1 hour a day or week to another. I see in my vision and company that this service will start the barter and trade world. Where we don't buy but exchange, that we actually use something until it is unusuable. Then once its no longer in use it gets returned to the process not just thrown away. I can explain this aspect of my vision and dream. This dream that I have is anchored in Reality and not Illusion. In this dream people learn to live not run from evil (the mirror image). I see a world that cares for its planet. The only thing that sustains them. Without this earth (that we are allowing to be killed, for someone else's selfish gain) we would not exist. Think about it. In my vision people will Change because change means expansion and expansion is the the way the universe works and as long as we are expanding (not compressing, suppressing. oppressing or de`pressing) then we will evolve and survive. You want to know why this vision works? Because it honors this living earth. When you do that, how can you go wrong? I have begun the work for this Vision with a website... I would love support on many levels to make this happen. Love and Light Brings Harmony... and True Wisdom.

I think that smoking is one of the most self-destructive things a person could do and I would really like to help find a way to persuade people to stop.

I recently had this vision and I am surrounded by white. I can't see my face or body but it's like I am all white too almost like an outline of me and I am completely calm, serenity.No worries what so ever, no thinking just being.Pure. I seem to be sitting very erect I think someone is next to me they are feeling the same thing but I can't see them. I tryed meditating (which is not something that I do) trying to see if I could feel that way on my own and I wasn't able to achieve the serenity but the vision has made me want to meditate and get into that state more often. I feel like that is how it will be in Heaven.

As a pet professional since the age of 18, I have developed a passion for ensuring that animal lovers do not have to give up their pets or the idea of having pets around them as they age. I have joined a community of BraveHeartWomen who are working together inspiring one another to synchronistically attract positive relationships that produce positive results.

What ever I do, do the best of my ability and be kind to everyone along the way.

Dreams are what happen when the soul is sojourning beyond the celestial and temporal realities. What is makes dreams wild, is the belief that some how you have the capacity to touch the celestial and transform temporalities into realities. When gentle breezes from literary litanies lift and somehow lighten the load of those whom bare temporary weight. When you whisper those dreams into the soul of others who fail to believe in the your celestial vision, all windows close. If you fail to open the windows to feel the gentle breezes again, one can suffer from temporary insanity. This is when, post traumatic stress syndrome like symptoms can act as barriers to the vistas of the soul. Belief is the why of both realities, those who believe not in dreams of others and the dreamers who are compelled by them. Who can recover from PTSD without believing in the wildest dreams, like the single mother of four children who becomes the Doctor. Now that is a wild dream, but somehow the temporal and far, far celestial realities did not create barriers but only opportunities. So when you read the Gail of fresh breezes that silences the blank stirs of the others, you just feel empowered. How does a student who can barely believe in himself or herself, who finds it legitimate to contextualize degradation with 'n' and 'b' epithets feel gentle breezes from words that scorched the souls of our ancestors? How, I will tell you how the bar of expectation of dignity and self respect have been defined by the confines of temporal science? Which places more emphasis on hypothesis over belief and thus closing the windows of the future in the face of those in the past. I believe the celestial linked to the eternal and the temporal is my fuel, and that is how to fulfill your wildest dreams.

I would love to work with animals. We had a black labrador for over 7 years that we lost to cancer. I was let go from my job a few weeks ago after 23 years as an office assistant. That's the job I'm qualified for, but I really don't want to do it anymore.

Okay Gail, I am going to go for it!! I read your article in the May issue of (my favorite magazine) Real Simple and felt myself light up about several ideas I have carried in my mind for years. I will share a couple of them with you. First, I love salsa dancing. I love it so much that when I hear the music and picture myself dancing, I get tears is my eyes. Isn't that wild? Well, not really, What is wild is that I only do it about once a year! However, I am happy to report that this year, 2007 is the year I will become a true salsera (lover and dancer of salsa). I have been taking classes 2x per week for 8 weeks now:). I feel so good and am dropping baby weight without counting calories (my daughter Brooklyn is 5 months old now). The second vision that lights up my spirit is living bi-coastally in NY and Cali (I live in Cali now and always have). I know that I am supposed to live in NY at least part time because every time my feet hit the ground in NY I feel invincible, vibrant, comfortable and sooo alive!!! I believe that what I can do at this time of my life to best serve the world is utilize my gifts, education and life experience to be a life coach and a writer. I want to write for a NY based magazine or paper on the topics of optimal well being in love, health, and career. I want to help others learn how to have happiness and harmony in life NOW. I love the idea of interacting with folks on paper, answering questions, provoking thought and perhaps even movement in a positive direction (just as you have with me by writing your article). I laughed to myself yesterday (a sense of humor really helps me grow without punishing myself for not being perfect), when I was telling a new student of mine that the universe waits for no one. Basically, I was teaching her about the idea that you must ACT when your spirit delivers ideas and you feel motivated. Don't put it on a to do list that goes in a drawer, act now and then watch as the universe lines up to help your best vision manifest! She seemed to understand and I had to admit to her that it is a challenge for me to do it in my own life, but a worthwhile endeavor for sure. So here I am Gail, a day later, following through on what I tell other people to do almost everyday. One of my visions is having lunch with you in NYC and talking with you about how you managed to carve out a wonderful career and life in NYC and beyond. I will be taking my daughter and family for a visit to the neighborhood I envision myself owning a tri-level brownstone, Fort Green, Brooklyn, June 1-12. I would love to meet you and have the opportunity to get some advice on how to manifest my life coaching/writing vision! Thank you Gail for writing this article and for being an awesome role model. Your short bio from RS is on my vision board in my career section. You are inspiring and I look forward to meeting with you soon!!
Sincerely,
Carley

I'm passionate about cooking. I'd love to be on the set of Emeril Live, sharing my favorite recipe.

Freedom for Tibet. Everytime I see the Dalai Lama I am filled with such calm and peace. I would love for ethnic Tibetans to be free and at home in their own country. I pray constantly that it happens in my lifetime.

I would love to move to Israel and live on a kibbutz. I was on one 20 years ago and I've thought about the life there everyday! My biggest regret is that we didn't stay there, become parents there and raise our child there. It's too late for that (my daughter is already 16), but we'll be empty nesters soon and its never too late to change your life. I just have to figure out how to find a kibbutz that will accept new immigrants. The process is a little overwhelming, so the mapping vision will help, hopefully.

I would love to have my own animal rescue organization for homeless animals. Helping animals is my passion. I have helped to save the lives of several shelter dogs who were on death row simply because they ended up in a pound through no fault of their own and were facing euthanization.

I can't put into words how rewarding this is for me. At 53 years old and self-supporting, I don't have the financial means or energy to make this happen but I know that this will be my biggest regret when I look back on my life.
Your article, "what's in your future?" was so inspiring to me. I only wish I had the courage and the means to live my dream.
