Why You Must First Love Yourself

Everyone has heard that you have to love yourself before someone else can love you. The reason for this is simple - our ideal partner is a reflection of us.

We attract people that are like us. Not just in terms of romantic, sexual/physical attraction. We attract them metaphysically - these people tend to turn up in our lives.

Each of us has a unique belief system, a way of seeing the world that is slightly different to everyone else's. It's almost like our ego has a fingerprint. What turns us on, what turns us off. What we feel is important.

Our political preferences, tastes in food and music, and so on, all arise out of this belief system. Our particular thoughts and feelings resonate with different aspects of the world around us. If your thoughts are dark, you like heavy metal. If your thoughts are happy, you like cheesey music. We like certain foods, like for example, coffee, because of the way they make us feel.

The types of people that come into our lives are affected by our beliefs. We meet people who have made the same sorts of choices we make. Where to live, which bar to go to, which supermarket to shop at. All these choices reflect our values and our way of being from day to day, minute to minute.

When you enter a seminar or lecture theatre, where do you sit? On the front row where you can ask questions or the back where you can fall asleep without being noticed? Our personality is reflected in the places we turn up... and so we end up being surrounded by people who are the same way.

Romantic compatibility has a lot to do with this. Why do we always ask our love interest what sort of music they like? We want to know they are on our wavelength. We want to know they are drawn to the same emotional experience, so we can trust that they will understand us.

Looking Back - DigElog ROCORI Exclusive Interview With Bob Brink

In this story you will hear from ROCORI Boys Basketball Coach Bob Brink. We were hoping Brink would share some of the feelings that are going through his mind as he approaches career win number 900. However, coaching isn't about the number of wins for Brink. He does share that he doesn't really remember any of the significant wins- 300,400, or 500, but he does remember receiving a few nice watches. 

 The truth is he simply loves to compete. When asked if he could reflect on his personal accomplishments, he would always shift the focus to his great staff, the system he runs, and the wonderful opportunity that he was given in ROCORI. So check out this story, and be sure to stay tuned for the next two weeks as we run three more segments to this story. Also be sure to stay tuned to DigElog ROCORI as well will be broadcasting live when Coach Brink goes for career win number 900.

 

The Garden of Innocence for abandoned infants

The Garden of Innocence is where infants that were abandoned by their family lay to rest after they have sadly passed away. Special ceremonies are held where a community joins together and provides a proper ceremony and burial for the child. As a part of the memorial service, the community gathers in a circle where they pass around the child's urn to let the lost child know that they touched their lives in a special way and give peace to them. A memorial service is given to them so that the world knows that they were here even for their short time. The child is then memorialized with a tombstone, headstone, grave marker or some other type of granite monument.

Learning new skills keeps aging minds sharp

Monday 21 October 2013 - 8am PST

 

We are constantly reminded to "use it or lose it," and new research from the University of Texas at Dallas shows the same is true for keeping your brain up to speed.

No one likes the idea of slowing down as they age, but a new study suggests that challenging yourself to learn a new skill can bring noticeable benefits to an aging mind.

The Administration on Aging predicts that there will be 72.1 million Americans aged 65 and over by the year 2030 - 19% of the population. And the new research provides insight into how everyday activities contribute to cognitive vitality as we age.

Lead researcher, Denise Park, PhD, from the University's School of Behavioral and Brain Sciences, says:

"We need, as a society, to learn how to maintain a healthy mind, just like we know how to maintain vascular health with diet and exercise."
