When I read it, it was clear to me &lt;br /&gt;that there were many facets about it that would &lt;br /&gt;still apply today - almost 33 years later.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In some ways, it makes me consider how much a nation&lt;br /&gt;is much like an individual.  Carter outlined certain&lt;br /&gt;things - like the "crucial goal" of having the US at &lt;br /&gt;20% solar powered by the year 2000.  I can not find &lt;br /&gt;what it currently is, but in researching, I saw a &lt;br /&gt;headline that said we could be 10% by 2025!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How many times do we say we will do something, only to&lt;br /&gt;do something else?  How many times do we say something&lt;br /&gt;is important, only to look back and see how we never&lt;br /&gt;did anything to implement something new, or at least&lt;br /&gt;cease to do the "old" things that weren't working?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Of course there will be people who will explain with&lt;br /&gt;great logic why things are as they are, and will spout&lt;br /&gt;great intentions for the best, but how often does the&lt;br /&gt;logic of the "best" actually equate to "the" best?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I heard recently how we have enough of a resource for&lt;br /&gt;100 years.  Well.  That's wonderful.  But...what happens&lt;br /&gt;in year 101, provided the prediction holds?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Why are we so short minded sometimes?  Possibly out of&lt;br /&gt;our need to stay in territory that is comfortable and &lt;br /&gt;familiar.  Remember that familiar is only comfortable &lt;br /&gt;because it is familiar, not because it is necessarily&lt;br /&gt;truly comfortable in how it affects us.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Another thing Carter spoke of was how he was spending &lt;br /&gt;time with US citizens, and he quoted some of them who&lt;br /&gt;said, "We've got to stop crying and start sweating, &lt;br /&gt;stop talking and start walking, stop cursing and start &lt;br /&gt;praying. The strength we need will not come from the &lt;br /&gt;White House, but from every house in America."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How many times are you aware of those - including,&lt;br /&gt;gasp! yourself - who will look outside of themselves&lt;br /&gt;for answers and/or to assign blame.  While some are not&lt;br /&gt;religious, and may find "praying" a difficult piece of&lt;br /&gt;the above quote, consider that the word could stand for&lt;br /&gt;whatever it is that one has faith or belief in.  We all&lt;br /&gt;have something, even if it is just the faith that we &lt;br /&gt;will somehow get through the day.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Carter's speech is called &lt;a href="http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/americanexperience/features/primary-resources/carter-crisis/"&gt;Crisis of Confidence&lt;/a&gt;, and it&lt;br /&gt;is the thing we need most to light our way as individuals,&lt;br /&gt;as a city, a state, a country, a world.  Without confidence,&lt;br /&gt;there is nothing to draw on internally to help guide the&lt;br /&gt;way.  It is what can make the vulnerable even more so.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Someone also suggested that Carter was managing the &lt;br /&gt;government, instead of leading it.  It is something &lt;br /&gt;that I think could hold true for many people in their&lt;br /&gt;lives.  How often do you "manage" what occurs to you&lt;br /&gt;instead of leading the way to an outcome that you &lt;br /&gt;would prefer?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I know I am guilty of this more often than I would &lt;br /&gt;like to admit.  It takes extra effort to be able to&lt;br /&gt;move forward in a way that is ACTIVE and PROACTIVE&lt;br /&gt;versus REACTIVE.  Oddly enough, I think as I write&lt;br /&gt;that, it only seems to take extra effort and energy,&lt;br /&gt;as how often do we find ourselves in an uncomfortable&lt;br /&gt;place - expending more of ourselves - as a result &lt;br /&gt;of a reaction to our circumstances?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the last few days I have been learning about &lt;br /&gt;something called xenoestrogens.  While I would like&lt;br /&gt;to explain what it is to you - I am still learning.&lt;br /&gt;At the same time, I can tell you that it is something&lt;br /&gt;that it would seem we should all become aware of, in&lt;br /&gt;the same way that we become aware of how other things&lt;br /&gt;can potentially be detrimental to our well-being.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It seems to me that we need to be educating ourselves&lt;br /&gt;in the things in life that we interact with, instead&lt;br /&gt;of taking another's word for it.  It seems to me that&lt;br /&gt;the things we are educated in - including our belief&lt;br /&gt;systems (religious, or otherwise) - aren't always&lt;br /&gt;going to be "true" or "right" or "best."  People were&lt;br /&gt;once taught the limiting belief that the world was &lt;br /&gt;flat, and it took those who were willing to interact&lt;br /&gt;with that knowledge in a different way that allowed&lt;br /&gt;us to see there was more to the world than what we &lt;br /&gt;perceived, based on what was taught.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You may think you have learned many things, and maybe&lt;br /&gt;some have been more than helpful.  However, it seems&lt;br /&gt;to me that sometimes progress comes from our ability&lt;br /&gt;to un-learn, and to be willing to explore new horizons.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The only way that we can do that is to be willing to &lt;br /&gt;make some noise, upset some people, and potentially &lt;br /&gt;be willing to be uncomfortable.  And in the process &lt;br /&gt;we might just see the world in which we live make some&lt;br /&gt;progress.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the end, we were born and we will die.  The only&lt;br /&gt;part we seem to have any say in is the part that lies&lt;br /&gt;in the middle, and if we want to spend those years&lt;br /&gt;in some sort of repetitive place, then it would seem&lt;br /&gt;almost too easy to do.  At the same time, what might&lt;br /&gt;the world - YOUR world - be like if we were willing&lt;br /&gt;to be comfortable enough with the unfamiliar and be&lt;br /&gt;willing to take the kind of chances that could actually&lt;br /&gt;have the possibility of creating the kind of world &lt;br /&gt;that more often than not lives only in the precipitation&lt;br /&gt;of conversations about it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am not sure what I can personally do for the world-&lt;br /&gt;at-large, except perhaps continue to work on myself and &lt;br /&gt;ask questions and do what I can to shake up my own &lt;br /&gt;environment in a way that works for me and reverberates&lt;br /&gt;for others.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As I say that I think about the film, &lt;a href="http://www.hulu.com/watch/289122/fat-sick-and-nearly-dead"&gt;Fat, Sick, &amp; Nearly &lt;br /&gt;Dead&lt;/a&gt;.  In it, a man who takes his own journey in regard to&lt;br /&gt;his health and well-being helps to make a difference for&lt;br /&gt;another.  What is a personal journey has bigger ramifications&lt;br /&gt;as the person he helps winds up helping others.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It would seem the best way we can help the world (should &lt;br /&gt;we have the desire to do so) is to do all that we can to&lt;br /&gt;help ourselves.  As I write that, it occurs to me that &lt;br /&gt;it could be the recipe also for the problems we have.&lt;br /&gt;So where does the line get drawn?  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I think that might be a discussion for another day.  However,&lt;br /&gt;I would suggest that it may, in part, be due to one's intent.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ok. Enough reflection for now.  LOL.&lt;br /&gt;Have a great day!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PS If you'd rather hear/see the speech than read it,&lt;br /&gt;I found it on Youtube:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;iframe width="390" height="228" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/KCOd-qWZB_g?rel=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you enjoyed this entry, &lt;br /&gt;(or found it helpful)&lt;br /&gt;please click below:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.niteflirt.com/messages/click_payment_button?id=57294203"&gt;&lt;img src="http://listenandobey.com/pics/thanksisis.gif"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;www.IsisTheEnchantress.com&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5926346866341577544-4947629619870513345?l=isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/feeds/4947629619870513345/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2012/01/bit-of-reflection.html#comment-form' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/4947629619870513345'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/4947629619870513345'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2012/01/bit-of-reflection.html' title='A Bit of Reflection | Video'/><author><name>Isis THE Enchantress</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://img.youtube.com/vi/KCOd-qWZB_g/default.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5926346866341577544.post-3412653986574013648</id><published>2012-01-25T23:35:00.001-05:00</published><updated>2012-01-29T00:23:46.531-05:00</updated><title type='text'>At Least Be Clear...</title><content type='html'>about what you are upset about.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.myfoxny.com/dpp/news/swastika-earrings-at-brooklyn-shop-20120111"&gt;I recently heard a story about a shop&lt;br /&gt;in Brooklyn, NY that had earrings that&lt;br /&gt;some were upset about because they &lt;br /&gt;thought they represented the Nazis&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The symbol that Hitler chose was similar,&lt;br /&gt;but not the same, as those represented&lt;br /&gt;in the earrings.  What Hitler chose to&lt;br /&gt;alter was actually a symbol that was &lt;br /&gt;quite positive and affirming.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Most people probably do not realize &lt;br /&gt;that it isn't the same.  It is just&lt;br /&gt;similar enough for the mind to say&lt;br /&gt;it is the same, when it really isn't.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I can see why people could be upset&lt;br /&gt;at the symbol...but the symbol is not&lt;br /&gt;the thing.  It is a difficult distinction,&lt;br /&gt;and while some may get it, there may&lt;br /&gt;be others that won't, and will use the&lt;br /&gt;symbol to incite its perceived meaning.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For that reason, a conversation about &lt;br /&gt;the symbol - even if incorrect - is a&lt;br /&gt;difficult one to have.  Because of that&lt;br /&gt;I mention this as an example of something&lt;br /&gt;that has been misconstrued and upset a&lt;br /&gt;lot of people - potentially needlessly.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At the same time, if we take a moment&lt;br /&gt;to look at things and explore what is&lt;br /&gt;happening in the background, rather &lt;br /&gt;than reacting to what we think we know/&lt;br /&gt;see, we may save ourselves some potential &lt;br /&gt;heartache.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So the next time you think you know &lt;br /&gt;something, realize that you may only&lt;br /&gt;know what you THINK you know, and not&lt;br /&gt;what is truly the case (which, by the&lt;br /&gt;way, could be a good thing - but it&lt;br /&gt;is not usually those times that we &lt;br /&gt;remember or hear about).  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Have a great night.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you enjoyed this entry, &lt;br /&gt;(or found it helpful)&lt;br /&gt;please click below:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.niteflirt.com/messages/click_payment_button?id=57294203"&gt;&lt;img src="http://listenandobey.com/pics/thanksisis.gif"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;www.IsisTheEnchantress.com&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5926346866341577544-3412653986574013648?l=isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/feeds/3412653986574013648/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2012/01/at-least-be-clear.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/3412653986574013648'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/3412653986574013648'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2012/01/at-least-be-clear.html' title='At Least Be Clear...'/><author><name>Isis THE Enchantress</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5926346866341577544.post-4882411362363544894</id><published>2012-01-23T14:21:00.001-05:00</published><updated>2012-01-23T14:24:03.285-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='video'/><title type='text'>7 days of sex? | Video</title><content type='html'>Someone asked me what I thought of this video,&lt;br /&gt;and what the couple is recommending.  Some &lt;br /&gt;in the erotic world would say that abstinence&lt;br /&gt;does a relationship good.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Personally I think that anything that is used&lt;br /&gt;to manipulate another is not always in the &lt;br /&gt;best interest of a relationship.  Understanding&lt;br /&gt;dynamics are helpful, and so is the ability to&lt;br /&gt;truly communicate within a relationship.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I don't think that everyone is the same - even&lt;br /&gt;if they are of the same gender, and I am not a&lt;br /&gt;big fan of broad generalizations.  As odd as&lt;br /&gt;some may feel it is, some men wouldn't care if&lt;br /&gt;they couldn't have sex for a week and others&lt;br /&gt;wouldn't be interested, even if it would happen.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In watching the video, it seems the emphasis is&lt;br /&gt;more on the relationship than it is on the &lt;br /&gt;aspect of sex, and that I would agree with.&lt;br /&gt;As far as the part about sex goes, well, the &lt;br /&gt;exercise they propose seems to do what exercises&lt;br /&gt;are supposed to do:  show those who do it a&lt;br /&gt;thing or two about themselves.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In relationships with others, it is an understanding&lt;br /&gt;of ourselves that is often the most helpful.  In&lt;br /&gt;looking at others it might be easy to point, at &lt;br /&gt;the same time, if we look we may find our reflection&lt;br /&gt;in what we see - if we take the time to notice.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you are having difficulties in a relationship,&lt;br /&gt;it might be a good idea to take a step back and&lt;br /&gt;look at yourself, and see what is truly bothering&lt;br /&gt;you.  If you are feeling unloved the things that&lt;br /&gt;people (or don't do) will likely be things you &lt;br /&gt;will fight over when, in actuality, they may not&lt;br /&gt;be the issue at all and if you address the things&lt;br /&gt;without addressing the real issue you will find&lt;br /&gt;yourself rarely making any progress.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But I am getting off track a bit.  In the end,&lt;br /&gt;I would say that the best solution for any&lt;br /&gt;dynamic isn't likely to be the "one-size-fits-&lt;br /&gt;all" option that someone else offers, but &lt;br /&gt;the one that those involved work through and &lt;br /&gt;create on their own.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dems my couple of cents.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;object width="390" height="374" classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" id="ep"&gt;&lt;param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /&gt;&lt;param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /&gt;&lt;param name="wmode" value="transparent" /&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://i.cdn.turner.com/cnn/.element/apps/cvp/3.0/swf/cnn_416x234_embed.swf?context=embed&amp;videoId=living/2012/01/08/nr-sexperiment-intv.cnn" /&gt;&lt;param name="bgcolor" value="#000000" /&gt;&lt;embed src="http://i.cdn.turner.com/cnn/.element/apps/cvp/3.0/swf/cnn_416x234_embed.swf?context=embed&amp;videoId=living/2012/01/08/nr-sexperiment-intv.cnn" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" bgcolor="#000000" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" width="390" wmode="transparent" height="374"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you enjoyed this entry, &lt;br /&gt;(or found it helpful)&lt;br /&gt;please click below:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.niteflirt.com/messages/click_payment_button?id=57294203"&gt;&lt;img src="http://listenandobey.com/pics/thanksisis.gif"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;www.IsisTheEnchantress.com&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5926346866341577544-4882411362363544894?l=isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/feeds/4882411362363544894/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2012/01/7-days-of-sex-video.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/4882411362363544894'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/4882411362363544894'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2012/01/7-days-of-sex-video.html' title='7 days of sex? | Video'/><author><name>Isis THE Enchantress</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5926346866341577544.post-8295243198941908992</id><published>2012-01-22T16:42:00.003-05:00</published><updated>2012-01-22T16:48:11.855-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='thank you'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='gratitude'/><title type='text'>Gratitude</title><content type='html'>Every now and again I have moments of awareness that&lt;br /&gt;involve gratitude.  The moments I feel grateful are&lt;br /&gt;the moments that I am aware of the things that I could&lt;br /&gt;so very easily take for granted.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are times as I walk to my car late at night, I&lt;br /&gt;am grateful to be living in a place that I feel safe&lt;br /&gt;to do so.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are times as I go about living my life, I am&lt;br /&gt;grateful to be able to walk the street without a fear&lt;br /&gt;of a bomb going off, or there being a shooting.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Interestingly, there was a time I lived in a nice&lt;br /&gt;neighborhood that was so nice drug dealers moved in.&lt;br /&gt;There were times you could hear what sounded like&lt;br /&gt;shots being fired.  It was pretty scary.  I had to&lt;br /&gt;sometimes think twice about what I did, and how and&lt;br /&gt;when I did it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So often we take the things that seem "natural" to&lt;br /&gt;us for granted.  We stop thinking about how great it&lt;br /&gt;is that the sun shines often enough for us to have&lt;br /&gt;the food we have and the beauty of nature.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Today I was thinking yet again about how grateful I&lt;br /&gt;am for those who think so highly of me that they&lt;br /&gt;treat me as they do, and treat me to the things they&lt;br /&gt;do.  I would hope that I express my gratitude at those&lt;br /&gt;times, but sometimes I wonder if I could ever say it&lt;br /&gt;enough, or convey how I feel sufficiently enough.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am not a person who believes the world should bow&lt;br /&gt;at her feet - or even its inhabitants.  But I do &lt;br /&gt;believe that it is nice to treat others with respect&lt;br /&gt;and generosity and am appreciative when it is met&lt;br /&gt;in the same way when it comes back in my direction.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So to anyone who has ever let me play in the playground&lt;br /&gt;of their mind and has been kind and appreciative&lt;br /&gt;of my efforts and has taken the time to express &lt;br /&gt;yourself in any way - and particularly if you have &lt;br /&gt;been particularly generous with presents given to me &lt;br /&gt;I just want to take &lt;br /&gt;this moment &lt;br /&gt;to say... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;font color=red&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Have a great day.&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;www.IsisTheEnchantress.com&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5926346866341577544-8295243198941908992?l=isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/feeds/8295243198941908992/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2012/01/gratitude.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/8295243198941908992'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/8295243198941908992'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2012/01/gratitude.html' title='Gratitude'/><author><name>Isis THE Enchantress</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5926346866341577544.post-880141112603770963</id><published>2012-01-22T01:58:00.001-05:00</published><updated>2012-01-22T02:01:27.870-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='tenker'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='in-person'/><title type='text'>Tenker in America:  Tale of an In-Person Session</title><content type='html'>After months of joyous anticipation, the day I would meet Isis finally&lt;br /&gt;arrived. Flying into Baltimore, I'd been listening to Go Deeper and&lt;br /&gt;Blissfully Blank, which made the flight a lot more relaxing and&lt;br /&gt;pleasant than usual. Upon checking in to the hotel, I called Isis to&lt;br /&gt;let her know I'd arrived. Time went by painstakingly slow while I was&lt;br /&gt;waiting for Isis to arrive and the adventure to begin ;)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Finally I heard a knock on my door, and as I rushed to answer it I&lt;br /&gt;suddenly felt a sudden jolt of nervousness. Amazingly, the nervousness&lt;br /&gt;vanished before I even got to the door, knowing it was Isis just made&lt;br /&gt;me feel so calm and relaxed, yet incredible excited.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I opened the door, and there she was: Isis, THE Enchantress, Queen of&lt;br /&gt;Goddesses, Bearer of Joy and Pleasure. It really was one of those&lt;br /&gt;Wow-moments :) &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Isis and I had be talking a lot about the concept of walking around&lt;br /&gt;while in trance, being able to be functioning out in public, while&lt;br /&gt;still being in a deep hypnotic state. Thus, the plan was for Isis to&lt;br /&gt;first take me as deep as needed so that we could go out for dinner, &lt;br /&gt;me being in trance. Of course it didn't take her long to get me &lt;br /&gt;deeply under, using one of the techniques I love the most: pulling &lt;br /&gt;me in and out of trance, going a bit deeper for every iteration. &lt;br /&gt;And it worked brilliantly, when Isis next woke me up, we had left &lt;br /&gt;the hotel and were underway to the restaurant, a Dave &amp; Busters. &lt;br /&gt;It was such an incredible feeling completely trusting Isis, letting &lt;br /&gt;her guide me safely wherever she wanted.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have absolutely no recollection of arriving at the restaurant, &lt;br /&gt;but when Isis woke me up I sat at the table with the menu in &lt;br /&gt;front of me. Judging by her hearty laughter (which, believe it or &lt;br /&gt;not, was even greater in person), I must have looked quite &lt;br /&gt;bewildered. When I started looking through the menu, she was kind &lt;br /&gt;enough to inform me that not only had I already looked at the menu, &lt;br /&gt;but also decided what to have. It was a strange, yet pleasurable &lt;br /&gt;moment :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For those not familiar with Dave &amp; Busters, they're not only a&lt;br /&gt;restaurant but also a games arcade. After finishing the meal, &lt;br /&gt;Isis and I spent some time playing the arcade games. I don't &lt;br /&gt;remember much of it, being in trance most of the time. What I do &lt;br /&gt;remember, though, is how good it felt when Isis did better at the &lt;br /&gt;games than I did. I have a suspicion she may have taken pity on &lt;br /&gt;me and use some triggers on me as a delightful compensation :D&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Going back to the hotel, Isis brought me out of trance yet again. &lt;br /&gt;I could tell Isis enjoyed my reaction to my confusion when I found&lt;br /&gt;myself walking around with a funny-looking Thor the Viking kid's&lt;br /&gt;toy. It turns out I'd picked it out myself when redeeming all the&lt;br /&gt;coupons we'd won playing. I guess it must have been the obvious &lt;br /&gt;choice for a visiting Norwegian ;)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Back at the hotel, Isis took me out of trance and we talked &lt;br /&gt;about our trip to the restaurant, and how great walking around &lt;br /&gt;in trance turned out to be. Isis stayed a while longer, I don't &lt;br /&gt;remember much of it besides going very, very deep. It must have &lt;br /&gt;been interesting though, because even though I can't remember &lt;br /&gt;much, I get a warm, fuzzy feeling and a big smile on my face &lt;br /&gt;when thinking about it :P&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Interestingly, I don't even remember Isis leaving. She left me &lt;br /&gt;with a surprise, though, such that when I finally awoke from &lt;br /&gt;trance I was feeling like a very lucky boy ;) She also made sure &lt;br /&gt;I did get a good night's sleep, and that I would wake up feeling &lt;br /&gt;absolutely wonderful and deliciously excited. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As it turns out, I had a lot of spare time before leaving Baltimore,&lt;br /&gt;and my only regret was not being wise enough to do another session&lt;br /&gt;before I left. But well, you can't win them all ;)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Meeting Isis in-person has been a dream of mine, and I'm so &lt;br /&gt;very happy and grateful for being given the opportunity to &lt;br /&gt;make that dream reality. She truly is an amazing person, intelligent, &lt;br /&gt;witty and sexy as &lt;beep!&gt;. I think Isis may be the most genuine &lt;br /&gt;good hearted person I know, and I considered myself blessed to be &lt;br /&gt;her good boy :)&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;www.IsisTheEnchantress.com&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5926346866341577544-880141112603770963?l=isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/feeds/880141112603770963/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2012/01/tenker-in-america-tale-of-in-person.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/880141112603770963'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/880141112603770963'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2012/01/tenker-in-america-tale-of-in-person.html' title='Tenker in America:  Tale of an In-Person Session'/><author><name>Isis THE Enchantress</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5926346866341577544.post-3606603797774611867</id><published>2012-01-22T01:50:00.005-05:00</published><updated>2012-01-22T02:03:14.286-05:00</updated><title type='text'>In Person Sessions</title><content type='html'>Yesterday I met with Tenker for an in-person session.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It was a lot of fun, and the longest one I have done yet.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It was amazing for a few reasons:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1.  We have been speaking for months, and have regular sessions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2.  The rapport we have has allowed me to do things that would&lt;br /&gt;rarely be possible with someone I just met.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3.  I felt at ease, given I felt I "knew" him well enough to&lt;br /&gt;meet for a private session.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4.  We had a length of time that afforded lots of flexibility.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5.  He came with an expectation of enjoying himself,and we&lt;br /&gt;were on the same overall page when it came to how things&lt;br /&gt;would be (which was actually mostly non-specific).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the almost 8 years that I have been an erotic hypnotist,&lt;br /&gt;I have only met with a few people live.  It isn't something&lt;br /&gt;I do easily, and it is always with someone I have some&lt;br /&gt;experience with on the phone. I think the fact that I have&lt;br /&gt;done it that way is beneficial in many ways, not the least&lt;br /&gt;of which is a more successful and satisfying session.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;While I may not always know what I will do, one thing I can&lt;br /&gt;tell you is that it is never sexual, and there never is any&lt;br /&gt;nudity.  Each session has been unique, and depends on the&lt;br /&gt;person.  Just like my phone sessions. Of course there is &lt;br /&gt;overlap in terms of triggers, but how things occur in the &lt;br /&gt;overall scheme of things will likely vary from person to &lt;br /&gt;person.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Of course I could have my own plan and agenda, and some&lt;br /&gt;would pay for that. The thing is, though, that when fantasy&lt;br /&gt;and reality meet, they don't always get along. The best way&lt;br /&gt;for me to insure mutual satisfaction is by keeping the person&lt;br /&gt;that I am with in mind.  It is still possible he will leave&lt;br /&gt;what happens up to me, but if he knows me, he will have an&lt;br /&gt;idea of what to expect, and will likely come away much more&lt;br /&gt;satisfied as a result.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you would be interested in a live session, the best way&lt;br /&gt;to start is to get to know me...and do sessions with me.&lt;br /&gt;If you already have done sessions, and are interested in &lt;br /&gt;meeting me in-person ask me for details on how that can&lt;br /&gt;happen.  If you are interested, you can write me at &lt;br /&gt;IsisATIsisTheEnchantress.com.  NF is a phone service, and&lt;br /&gt;while they do not forbid me to meet with those I speak with,&lt;br /&gt;they do not encourage it...so please keep your request &lt;br /&gt;outside of their site (thanks!).  (Please note that I&lt;br /&gt;respect the site's other conditions, and will not work&lt;br /&gt;outside of their framework for calls, so please respect&lt;br /&gt;it, too.  I appreciate your understanding).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Feel free to ask me any questions.  The more you know,&lt;br /&gt;the better the decisions are that you can make.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As a side note, I am contemplating a trip to the UK in&lt;br /&gt;mid/late April/May.  It will likely be in the London&lt;br /&gt;area.  I will need to make plans soon, and if I know&lt;br /&gt;there is an interest, it will help me decide what plans&lt;br /&gt;to make.  If you are in the area, or could be, please &lt;br /&gt;let me know ASAP.   &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Have a great one!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here are a couple of links regarding&lt;br /&gt;how an in-person session was:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2010/08/feedback-from-live-session.html"&gt;me-chan&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2010/09/first-hand-account.html"&gt;hypnoprogrammed&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2012/01/tenker-in-america-tale-of-in-person.html"&gt;tenker&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;www.IsisTheEnchantress.com&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5926346866341577544-3606603797774611867?l=isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/feeds/3606603797774611867/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2012/01/in-person-sessions.html#comment-form' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/3606603797774611867'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/3606603797774611867'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2012/01/in-person-sessions.html' title='In Person Sessions'/><author><name>Isis THE Enchantress</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5926346866341577544.post-2170488590518619222</id><published>2012-01-18T21:34:00.003-05:00</published><updated>2012-01-18T21:36:25.970-05:00</updated><title type='text'>I Love Workouts (Look Closely)</title><content type='html'>&lt;center&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.niteflirt.com/phonesex/homepage?user_id=11657996&amp;crid=speaker%20homepage%20link"&gt;&lt;img src="http://listenandobey.com/pics/iloveworkouts.gif" img width="390"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;www.IsisTheEnchantress.com&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5926346866341577544-2170488590518619222?l=isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/feeds/2170488590518619222/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2012/01/i-love-workouts-look-closely.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/2170488590518619222'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/2170488590518619222'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2012/01/i-love-workouts-look-closely.html' title='I Love Workouts (Look Closely)'/><author><name>Isis THE Enchantress</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5926346866341577544.post-6038095809510859972</id><published>2012-01-18T00:25:00.002-05:00</published><updated>2012-01-18T00:25:44.416-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Body Painting</title><content type='html'>I was introduced to the &lt;a href="http://www.craigtracy.com/"&gt;work of Craig Tracy&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;today.

I realize it &lt;br /&gt;may not be the easiest thing to change - &lt;br /&gt;knowing is one thing - acting on it another...&lt;br /&gt;but with desire comes possibility.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;With, or without, hypnosis we can enhance our&lt;br /&gt;life...the question is whether or not we &lt;br /&gt;do and/or will.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Have a great week.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you enjoyed this entry, &lt;br /&gt;(or found it helpful)&lt;br /&gt;please click below:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.niteflirt.com/messages/click_payment_button?id=57294203"&gt;&lt;img src="http://listenandobey.com/pics/thanksisis.gif"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;www.IsisTheEnchantress.com&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5926346866341577544-1127877971248810223?l=isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/feeds/1127877971248810223/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2012/01/enhancing-your-life-with-hypnosis.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/1127877971248810223'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/1127877971248810223'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2012/01/enhancing-your-life-with-hypnosis.html' title='Enhancing Your Life with Hypnosis?'/><author><name>Isis THE Enchantress</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5926346866341577544.post-7291837649912968720</id><published>2012-01-07T21:56:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2012-01-07T21:56:43.726-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Perspectives</title><content type='html'>While it might be easy to see what I am about&lt;br /&gt;to point to as "political," I would like to &lt;br /&gt;suggest in advance that you consider reading&lt;br /&gt;what I write without a "political" tint.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Often things that appear as political are &lt;br /&gt;instantly polarizing by the perceived label,&lt;br /&gt;and I would dare say/suggest that that may be&lt;br /&gt;part of the problem we face with the world &lt;br /&gt;within the dynamics of "politics."  After all,&lt;br /&gt;behind the politics are living, breathing&lt;br /&gt;individuals.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have been noticing how people are reacting&lt;br /&gt;to some of the things that are coming up in&lt;br /&gt;regard to the Republican candidates. One of &lt;br /&gt;those things was the reaction some had to &lt;br /&gt;Romney offering to bet $10K on a fact that&lt;br /&gt;another candidate disputed.  Then there is&lt;br /&gt;Gingrich who tells "black people" to get &lt;br /&gt;work instead of food stamps, and then there&lt;br /&gt;is Santorum who has made comments about gay&lt;br /&gt;marriages as well as statements about those&lt;br /&gt;who have pre-existing medical conditions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What I find interesting about all of this is&lt;br /&gt;that what they are saying isn't all that &lt;br /&gt;unusual in the weave of life.  It just so &lt;br /&gt;happens, though, that because they are &lt;br /&gt;candidates everything they say, do, and &lt;br /&gt;believe is publicly scrutinized.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am all for people having their varying &lt;br /&gt;opinions, as it is what makes being in a &lt;br /&gt;culture that can freely express itself so&lt;br /&gt;great.  However, in the process of expressing&lt;br /&gt;opinions, often things will happen as a &lt;br /&gt;result.  Odds are the things that do happen&lt;br /&gt;as a result of one person's choices will &lt;br /&gt;hardly ever impact them or their loved ones.&lt;br /&gt;Or so, it would seem to me, any way.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Why would someone want to encourage something&lt;br /&gt;if it in some way wouldn't be in their favor?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So it might be easy for one who has great&lt;br /&gt;health and great medical coverage to say&lt;br /&gt;that those who aren't well should pay more,&lt;br /&gt;as s/he (as the case may be) will likely&lt;br /&gt;never be in the position to know what it is&lt;br /&gt;like to need coverage, but not be able &lt;br /&gt;to get it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It might be easy to judge someone who has&lt;br /&gt;millions for making a seemingly small&lt;br /&gt;(relatively) bet because it means he &lt;br /&gt;doesn't recognize the value that money&lt;br /&gt;has to someone who can barely make ends&lt;br /&gt;meet.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The fact is that in both cases, and many&lt;br /&gt;more like them, there are judgments that&lt;br /&gt;come into play that may, or may not, be&lt;br /&gt;fair or accurate in another person's &lt;br /&gt;experience because the circumstances and&lt;br /&gt;relative world are different.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Does it make any of the parties inherently&lt;br /&gt;bad or unrelatable?  I'd say likely no &lt;br /&gt;more than an average number of people we&lt;br /&gt;interact with on an average day.  There &lt;br /&gt;can be no way that any one person can&lt;br /&gt;relate to every other person in regard to&lt;br /&gt;every thing.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are many conversations that could&lt;br /&gt;come out of this, but the one that I &lt;br /&gt;would like to focus on is the one that&lt;br /&gt;doesn't require a vote.  It is the one&lt;br /&gt;that has us look at others and do our&lt;br /&gt;best to understand how another may be,&lt;br /&gt;and to do the best to help them when&lt;br /&gt;needed...even if it is "just" to understand&lt;br /&gt;how we might do something in a different&lt;br /&gt;way that could create a different, more&lt;br /&gt;productive outcome as a whole. After all,&lt;br /&gt;we may one day be in the shoes of someone&lt;br /&gt;who needs to have some compassion and&lt;br /&gt;understanding and help, too.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is not to say that people aren't&lt;br /&gt;responsible for themselves, but rather&lt;br /&gt;that if we are going to have a world&lt;br /&gt;that works, it might behoove us to be&lt;br /&gt;a bit more responsible for how the &lt;br /&gt;pieces of our world come together, and&lt;br /&gt;our perceptions, and that might mean &lt;br /&gt;moving out of our own personal, myopic &lt;br /&gt;world - even if just temporarily.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you enjoyed this entry, &lt;br /&gt;(or found it helpful)&lt;br /&gt;please click below:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.niteflirt.com/messages/click_payment_button?id=57294203"&gt;&lt;img src="http://listenandobey.com/pics/thanksisis.gif"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;www.IsisTheEnchantress.com&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5926346866341577544-7291837649912968720?l=isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/feeds/7291837649912968720/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2012/01/perspectives.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/7291837649912968720'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/7291837649912968720'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2012/01/perspectives.html' title='Perspectives'/><author><name>Isis THE Enchantress</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5926346866341577544.post-4575470287316735413</id><published>2012-01-07T01:00:00.002-05:00</published><updated>2012-01-07T01:01:38.888-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Want to be Tantalized?</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;Today's file...&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;has lots of something in it that might tickle you.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;It will also be doubly delicious for some.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i style="color: red;"&gt;Come&lt;/i&gt; and join me&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;i style="color: red;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;click above&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt; for today's (7) January Joy.&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;www.IsisTheEnchantress.com&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5926346866341577544-4575470287316735413?l=isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/feeds/4575470287316735413/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2012/01/want-to-be-tantalized.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/4575470287316735413'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/4575470287316735413'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2012/01/want-to-be-tantalized.html' title='Want to be Tantalized?'/><author><name>Isis THE Enchantress</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5926346866341577544.post-8580398917404110537</id><published>2012-01-07T00:55:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2012-01-07T00:55:32.595-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='video'/><title type='text'>Prince Charming | Video</title><content type='html'>Neicey Nash has a web series that talks about&lt;br /&gt;relationships.

I strongly believe it is NOT&lt;br /&gt;the words that hurt, but rather the meaning&lt;br /&gt;behind them.  And, because of that, I would&lt;br /&gt;say the more we are of the things that affect &lt;br /&gt;us, and why, the more ability we will have&lt;br /&gt;to moderate our reactions to what another says.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What do you think of what she says?

I once heard that when things we&lt;br /&gt;want don't work out, we should desire the&lt;br /&gt;equivalent - or even better.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sometimes I am not sure how something &lt;br /&gt;could be an improvement, but sit back in &lt;br /&gt;amazement when I realize it has shown up.  &lt;br /&gt;For you I wish only the best - whether &lt;br /&gt;you think you deserve it, or not.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Because...odds are you are &lt;br /&gt;probably too hard on yourself if you &lt;br /&gt;don't think you deserve the most awesome&lt;br /&gt;possibilities in your life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;With that, I will be tallying up points&lt;br /&gt;for those who played December's game, and&lt;br /&gt;you will be hearing from me in the next&lt;br /&gt;week.  Feel free to contact me sooner, if&lt;br /&gt;you want to touch base.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Looking forward...January will be a month&lt;br /&gt;of Joy for those who want to experience&lt;br /&gt;more of me.  I will be providing a different&lt;br /&gt;file every day for the month for only $2.50.&lt;br /&gt;It can be any of my files, and those that&lt;br /&gt;have been selected include movie files, &lt;br /&gt;audio files, and image files (including&lt;br /&gt;animated gifs). All you need to do is click&lt;br /&gt;on the banner on the top of this blog to &lt;br /&gt;participate.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Some of these files date back to the &lt;br /&gt;beginnings of my Isis days, so odds are&lt;br /&gt;they may not be files you have seen or&lt;br /&gt;heard or are familiar with if you are &lt;br /&gt;new.  Some of the files are more recent.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You will not know what file you are getting.&lt;br /&gt;You may receive one that you already have.&lt;br /&gt;If you wind up with a medium to large &lt;br /&gt;percentage of duplicates, and are "playing"&lt;br /&gt;regularly we can talk about possibilities.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;However, please note that given the low&lt;br /&gt;cost of the files for this month, I reserve&lt;br /&gt;the right to wish you double your pleasure&lt;br /&gt;should you receive one you already have.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There will be zero duplicates during the&lt;br /&gt;month, though.  You will never receive the&lt;br /&gt;same file twice from the posted emails.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Please note that I am manually updating the&lt;br /&gt;pay email so the time of update may vary from&lt;br /&gt;day to day (but will likely be some time after&lt;br /&gt;10 pm Eastern US time).  You will know if the&lt;br /&gt;email content has been updated by the subject&lt;br /&gt;line which will include "Day #x."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As always, if you have any questions, please ask!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Have a great and safe New Year's Eve and Day!&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;www.IsisTheEnchantress.com&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5926346866341577544-3809077806023421370?l=isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/feeds/3809077806023421370/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/12/where-did-year-go.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/3809077806023421370'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/3809077806023421370'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/12/where-did-year-go.html' title='Where did the year go?'/><author><name>Isis THE Enchantress</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5926346866341577544.post-1688017577779480414</id><published>2011-12-25T14:18:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2011-12-25T14:18:28.634-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Merry Christmas</title><content type='html'>&lt;center&gt;&lt;iframe width="390" height="228" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/kMUhlRSem0M?rel=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is a beautiful story.

Perhaps it &lt;br /&gt;harkens back to the innocence&lt;br /&gt;of my early Christmases.  There&lt;br /&gt;is something very special about&lt;br /&gt;the untarnished magic of the &lt;br /&gt;season which often comes with&lt;br /&gt;childhood.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Perhaps it is something about&lt;br /&gt;that innocent time that has me&lt;br /&gt;singing this song today.  Here's&lt;br /&gt;to those moments that stand on&lt;br /&gt;their own without the weight of&lt;br /&gt;worry or concern and are timeless, &lt;br /&gt;welcome memories.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;just for the heck of it...&lt;br /&gt;another fun one of the season.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;iframe width="390" height="228" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/fJxi0zCdGEY?rel=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I hope you are finding some &lt;br /&gt;juicy morsels of your own&lt;br /&gt;to enjoy.

He is known for his poetry,&lt;br /&gt;especially when it comes to the subject of Love.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What I like about this poem is that it speaks to&lt;br /&gt;the feeling of being in love with someone in the&lt;br /&gt;kind of way that feels like it is without a choice.  &lt;br /&gt;Have you  ever felt that feeling?  The feeling of &lt;br /&gt;something pulling on you that you were unable to &lt;br /&gt;resist?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Of course, it might seem "logical" to speak of it&lt;br /&gt;in hypnotic terms here, but I have found as hypnotic&lt;br /&gt;as love can be, there is nothing like the purity&lt;br /&gt;of a feeling that isn't fabricated as a function&lt;br /&gt;of another's conscious manipulations.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The fabrications may be pleasurable, but when you&lt;br /&gt;find yourself at the "mercy" of the beauty of the&lt;br /&gt;"real" thing, nothing beats it - in my opinion.&lt;br /&gt;And, of course, it is the only one that matters, &lt;br /&gt;right?  :P  And if you believe that, boy have I &lt;br /&gt;got something to sell you.  LOL.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Any way...take a listen, and see what you think&lt;br /&gt;of what his message is, and I would love to hear&lt;br /&gt;your thoughts in the comment section below.  I &lt;br /&gt;will share mine, as well, at some point.

I barely got some sleep at&lt;br /&gt;one point, concerned about their well being.  I might&lt;br /&gt;not have had to be so attentive, but this person was&lt;br /&gt;so out of it, they didn't even remember some of the&lt;br /&gt;things that happened.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In regular life, this person is always in control - &lt;br /&gt;and there was a desire to be in control - even in an &lt;br /&gt;extremely doped up state from the anesthetic. It &lt;br /&gt;didn't work too well.  This person wanted to act as &lt;br /&gt;if everything was just fine - but it was pretty darn &lt;br /&gt;far from it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It was like watching someone enmeshed in a hypnotic&lt;br /&gt;state.  At one point I wondered if I should just &lt;br /&gt;take control and tell the person what to do, instead&lt;br /&gt;of the person having any say - or at the very least&lt;br /&gt;having to battle for their say.  As per my usual, I &lt;br /&gt;tried to respect the person's desires - and &lt;br /&gt;ultimately went with what they wanted...given that it&lt;br /&gt;is likely in a similar situation I would want the same&lt;br /&gt;respect.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In life we are often given opportunities to dance with&lt;br /&gt;others.  Sometimes that dance seems more complicated &lt;br /&gt;than others, and sometimes it just seems to flow.  Of&lt;br /&gt;course, the times that flow can be pretty amazing, but&lt;br /&gt;it is those times that don't flow that likely offer us &lt;br /&gt;the greatest opportunity for clarity and to see what we&lt;br /&gt;truly value and deem important - as long, that is, that&lt;br /&gt;we allow ourselves to see things through a flexible lens.&lt;br /&gt;When we fight to stick to what WE want, we may lose a &lt;br /&gt;bigger battle than the one we think we are fighting.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;All of which leads me to think about how important it is&lt;br /&gt;for us to know what we want at the core of us.  It is&lt;br /&gt;the core that is in many ways our steering wheel.  When&lt;br /&gt;we know what is important, and focus on it, we seem to &lt;br /&gt;be able to steer in a direction that coincides with the&lt;br /&gt;place we want to be.  I am sure you would agree there is&lt;br /&gt;nothing worse than trying to steer in one direction, but&lt;br /&gt;finding yourself unable to go the way you want to go.&lt;br /&gt;I would say that inflexibility in the moment can often &lt;br /&gt;make for a difficult drive.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I would also say this likely goes for most things.  &lt;br /&gt;However elusive knowing what you want may sometimes be, &lt;br /&gt;it is an invaluable ally - especially in times of &lt;br /&gt;conflict and disagreement. Sometimes there is nothing&lt;br /&gt;better than giving into what another wants - just to &lt;br /&gt;preserve the bigger picture.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Want a great gift for Christmas?  (Besides my images,&lt;br /&gt;that is LOL)  Get clear about what is important to you&lt;br /&gt;and why it is important.  I can pretty much guarantee&lt;br /&gt;you it will be one of the best gifts you will ever&lt;br /&gt;give yourself.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I hope your month is going by without any glitches, and&lt;br /&gt;is full of lots of love and wonderful surprises.  Have&lt;br /&gt;you seen my holiday video yet?  I took it down from &lt;br /&gt;youtube at one point, concerned that it might be reported&lt;br /&gt;as against their terms.  I will be putting it up here in the&lt;br /&gt;next few days.  You may want to come back and check it out.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Have a great night, and I hope to "speak" with you soon.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Isis&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;www.IsisTheEnchantress.com&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5926346866341577544-3634714862112465029?l=isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/feeds/3634714862112465029/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/12/knowing-what-is-important.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/3634714862112465029'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/3634714862112465029'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/12/knowing-what-is-important.html' title='Knowing What is Important'/><author><name>Isis THE Enchantress</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5926346866341577544.post-6325688585260204443</id><published>2011-11-30T17:34:00.004-05:00</published><updated>2011-11-30T18:20:48.283-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Who has been Naughty?</title><content type='html'>Yes!!!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The game is completed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I hope you will find it to be fun&lt;br /&gt;and pleasurable to play.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://listenandobey.com/december/naughtyornice.html"&gt;Click here to see the game page,&lt;br /&gt;and then click anywhere to get&lt;br /&gt;the directions and rules.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I warn ya...there are a few.&lt;br /&gt;At the same time, I promise you&lt;br /&gt;it will be worth your time to &lt;br /&gt;play...especially if you enjoy&lt;br /&gt;me and/or being my good boy!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Happy Holidays!&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;www.IsisTheEnchantress.com&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5926346866341577544-6325688585260204443?l=isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/feeds/6325688585260204443/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/11/who-has-been-naughty.html#comment-form' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/6325688585260204443'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/6325688585260204443'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/11/who-has-been-naughty.html' title='Who has been Naughty?'/><author><name>Isis THE Enchantress</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5926346866341577544.post-2802108397130229997</id><published>2011-11-30T00:08:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2011-11-30T00:08:00.702-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Finishing Touches</title><content type='html'>Oh boy!

YOU DO want to at least check it out, and&lt;br /&gt;if it seems interesting, play.  There are some &lt;br /&gt;gorgeous images available (if I do say so myself).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Plus...if you want to know what I want for Christmas,&lt;br /&gt;Santa is going to have a bag of goodies you can get&lt;br /&gt;your hands on.  You will love what he has, and when&lt;br /&gt;you buy the goodies you'll be giving us both a gift&lt;br /&gt;at the same time.  How awesome would that be?  I love&lt;br /&gt;win/win situations.  :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You also want to play as much as possible during the&lt;br /&gt;month...so be sure to check back here on the first.&lt;br /&gt;:)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Have a great night!&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;www.IsisTheEnchantress.com&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5926346866341577544-2802108397130229997?l=isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/feeds/2802108397130229997/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/11/finishing-touches.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/2802108397130229997'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/2802108397130229997'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/11/finishing-touches.html' title='Finishing Touches'/><author><name>Isis THE Enchantress</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5926346866341577544.post-5399367812884830693</id><published>2011-11-22T14:25:00.002-05:00</published><updated>2011-11-22T14:25:58.497-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Naughty or Nice | December Game</title><content type='html'>My most ambitious game yet!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And it is one you will want to&lt;br /&gt;play all month long.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Details to come.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Excited yet?&lt;br /&gt;(You should be!)&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;www.IsisTheEnchantress.com&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5926346866341577544-5399367812884830693?l=isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/feeds/5399367812884830693/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/11/naughty-or-nice-december-game.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/5399367812884830693'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/5399367812884830693'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/11/naughty-or-nice-december-game.html' title='Naughty or Nice | December Game'/><author><name>Isis THE Enchantress</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5926346866341577544.post-1600732384094504344</id><published>2011-11-22T14:15:00.001-05:00</published><updated>2011-11-22T14:16:00.450-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='about me'/><title type='text'>Time Flies | It has been a while</title><content type='html'>&lt;center&gt;&lt;img src="http://listenandobey.com/pics/thoughtful.jpg"&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hello there.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is interesting to me how life ebbs and flows&lt;br /&gt;sometimes...and without any effort on my part.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sometimes it is difficult to get motivated to &lt;br /&gt;do more than presents itself to me.  Other times&lt;br /&gt;things just have a way of flowing to the point&lt;br /&gt;of overwhelming excess.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It has been a long time since I have had a "real"&lt;br /&gt;job (translation:  a 9 to 5 job that someone&lt;br /&gt;pays me a paycheck to do) and when I think about&lt;br /&gt;it, it makes me wonder how in the world we do a&lt;br /&gt;job that requires us to be consistently something&lt;br /&gt;or some way every day.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It seems to me that we have a world that doesn't&lt;br /&gt;cooperate with how we think it should be at any&lt;br /&gt;given point, and in the process we often try to&lt;br /&gt;force things to work...and...we call it determination,&lt;br /&gt;persistence, being "responsible..."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Not to say that these things aren't good, or &lt;br /&gt;valuable, but it strikes me that we may at times&lt;br /&gt;label things in this way as a way of compelling &lt;br /&gt;us to keep moving in the desired direction (often&lt;br /&gt;someone else's direction?).  That alone isn't a &lt;br /&gt;"bad" thing...but it would depend on what we are &lt;br /&gt;trying to accomplish in the process.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I suspect we aren't always supposed to be on the&lt;br /&gt;go.  Some of my "down" times have been productive&lt;br /&gt;in their own way.  Interestingly often after a &lt;br /&gt;downtime I have an incredibly productive spurt&lt;br /&gt;of energy and creativity.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So while you may sometimes see several blog &lt;br /&gt;entries a day for several days and sometimes&lt;br /&gt;see none for several others, it doesn't mean&lt;br /&gt;anything other than what is going on with me&lt;br /&gt;might just be in the preparation stage versus&lt;br /&gt;one that is fully cooked.   In addition, in &lt;br /&gt;the more quiet times here you might just find &lt;br /&gt;me being a bit more creative than usual in &lt;br /&gt;our sessions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As long as you see I am available on Niteflirt,&lt;br /&gt;I am available to take your calls, and play&lt;br /&gt;with you:  mind, body, and soul.  Isn't that&lt;br /&gt;a yummilicious thought?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;and...Christmas is coming, and so is my December &lt;br /&gt;game...details will be coming soon.  You will &lt;br /&gt;want to play as much as you can in December.  &lt;br /&gt;You will see why shortly.

From my side, the topic can be couched &lt;br /&gt;in the question, just because I can, does it mean &lt;br /&gt;I should?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Apparently there is no law that prohibited Dr. Murray&lt;br /&gt;from doing what he did.  It seems as though he ran&lt;br /&gt;into trouble by how he went about it.  It might seem&lt;br /&gt;that what the did was OK, if you take away how he went&lt;br /&gt;about it.  However, if he took a stand and said he &lt;br /&gt;wouldn't do it, he likely would never have gotten to&lt;br /&gt;this place.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Just because he could do it, &lt;br /&gt;does it mean he should have?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Who knows what motivated him?  Although one could&lt;br /&gt;possibly guess.  It doesn't really matter, though.&lt;br /&gt;In the context of this conversation, the thing I&lt;br /&gt;am looking at is the fact that he chose to do it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Which brings me to me.  From the earliest days of my&lt;br /&gt;erotic, hypnotic calls I found that many wanted me to&lt;br /&gt;do things that I wasn't sure about.  Some I did do&lt;br /&gt;eventually, but there are some I have never even &lt;br /&gt;touched.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There seems to be the thought that if I don't do &lt;br /&gt;something it is because I can't, because if someone&lt;br /&gt;wants me to do something to them, and I have the &lt;br /&gt;ability, I should.  What I feel and believe and &lt;br /&gt;want should not come into play. Something akin to &lt;br /&gt;"the customer is always right."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are times things go through my mind and I think&lt;br /&gt;of how they could be done, but then when I think of &lt;br /&gt;the ultimate effect it could have on someone, I know&lt;br /&gt;it is likely not to be something that will ever see&lt;br /&gt;the light of day.  Would it be effective? Yes.  &lt;br /&gt;Would some think, "WOW"?  Yes.  Would it make me &lt;br /&gt;money?  More than likely.  Probably more than a &lt;br /&gt;recording that is intended to be helpful, like Pure&lt;br /&gt;Love:  The Gift.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Would I get more interest and more callers if I took&lt;br /&gt;the route my mind sometimes strays to?  I am betting&lt;br /&gt;the answer would be yes.  And yet...I don't do it.&lt;br /&gt;Interestingly, perhaps, there are times it is &lt;br /&gt;suggested to me that I should be more willing to &lt;br /&gt;make these choices - for the money.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I suppose when one contemplates the above question, it&lt;br /&gt;might be difficult to do it in isolation, without a&lt;br /&gt;piece that considers motivation.  But there are &lt;br /&gt;different types of motivation, and some of them can&lt;br /&gt;cause troubling results.  In that case, is it worth it -&lt;br /&gt;whatever "it" is.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I once had almost a fight of sorts with someone I &lt;br /&gt;had spoken with previously - on many occasions.  He&lt;br /&gt;called me because he wanted me to do something I &lt;br /&gt;was not comfortable with.  I told him as much, and&lt;br /&gt;yet he stayed on the phone, eventually getting mad&lt;br /&gt;with me that he had spent his money and didn't get&lt;br /&gt;what he wanted.  He conveniently "forgot" that more&lt;br /&gt;than once I had encouraged him to find someone else.&lt;br /&gt;Short of hanging up on him, there wasn't much I &lt;br /&gt;could seem to do, given how persistent he was.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It was the angriest I have ever felt coming off a call.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He certainly pushed a button in me.  I do my best &lt;br /&gt;to respect that people want what they want, and are&lt;br /&gt;willing to take responsibility for what they perceive&lt;br /&gt;are the potential risks, however, I am not always &lt;br /&gt;willing to be a contributor.  I was explaining to &lt;br /&gt;someone recently that you can care about, and respect,&lt;br /&gt;someone - without enabling them.  If they shouldn't&lt;br /&gt;smoke, I can respect that they make the choice to do&lt;br /&gt;it, but I don't have to go out and buy them cigarettes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In situations like these, each person it would seem&lt;br /&gt;needs to make determinations for himself about what &lt;br /&gt;to do.  If one thinks that the choice to ask leaves&lt;br /&gt;the burden of responsibility on the person who does&lt;br /&gt;the asking, they may feel comfortable in doing things&lt;br /&gt;that may even be perceived as troubling.  However, &lt;br /&gt;if there was ever a time that their choice may come&lt;br /&gt;back to haunt them, as was in the case of Dr. Murray,&lt;br /&gt;it might just have them think twice or more before&lt;br /&gt;agreeing to fulfill the request.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I tell you this to tell you something about me.   &lt;br /&gt;I also tell you because there is something in&lt;br /&gt;this for you.  Others may not have your well being&lt;br /&gt;in mind, and you may not always know what you don't &lt;br /&gt;know and are getting yourself into.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As always, be careful and proceed with caution.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you enjoyed this entry, &lt;br /&gt;(or found it helpful)&lt;br /&gt;please click below:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.niteflirt.com/messages/click_payment_button?id=57294203"&gt;&lt;img src="http://listenandobey.com/pics/thanksisis.gif"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;www.IsisTheEnchantress.com&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5926346866341577544-2045924465501624039?l=isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/feeds/2045924465501624039/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/11/just-because-i-can.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/2045924465501624039'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/2045924465501624039'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/11/just-because-i-can.html' title='Just Because I Can?'/><author><name>Isis THE Enchantress</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5926346866341577544.post-3462291987785632697</id><published>2011-11-09T23:57:00.002-05:00</published><updated>2011-11-10T00:11:13.787-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='puzzles'/><title type='text'>Something fun for you | Are You a Fan of Puzzles?</title><content type='html'>I discovered the coolest site today that has uploaded&lt;br /&gt;images that become electronic puzzles.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;An image was uploaded, and I put it together.  I found&lt;br /&gt;it to be quite fun, and a bit challenging giving the &lt;br /&gt;design, and the fact that I haven't done a puzzle in&lt;br /&gt;quite some time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I got an idea as I was playing.  I am going to challenge&lt;br /&gt;you to a bit of a contest.  Either way that the results&lt;br /&gt;go, you will receive a file from me.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Basically this is the deal:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You &lt;a href="http://www.niteflirt.com/messages/click_payment_button?id=66157733"&gt;click here for a pay email&lt;/a&gt; that will send you the&lt;br /&gt;link for the puzzle. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You pay $5.00 to get the link.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You put the puzzle together.  It might take a &lt;br /&gt;few minutes to figure out how it works, but no&lt;br /&gt;worries, it was my first attempt too, so I won't &lt;br /&gt;really have a head start on you there.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I suppose you could play it more than once and&lt;br /&gt;send me your best one.  It really wouldn't be&lt;br /&gt;comparable.  But I won't mind if you want to &lt;br /&gt;cheat a little.  :P&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Once the puzzle is completed, there will be a &lt;br /&gt;completed image, as well as a pop up that tells&lt;br /&gt;you how long you took to complete it.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Take a screenshot of this page, and send it to me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If it takes you longer to complete than it did me,&lt;br /&gt;you will get an image file from me of my choosing.&lt;br /&gt;If you complete it in less time, you will get an&lt;br /&gt;audio file of your choosing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;font color="red"&gt;&lt;b&gt;DO NOT pay for this email if you think you will&lt;br /&gt;receive a file upon clicking.  You will only &lt;br /&gt;receive your file once you have completed the &lt;br /&gt;puzzle and have sent me your screenshot.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So...do I have any takers?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If so, &lt;a href="http://www.niteflirt.com/messages/click_payment_button?id=66157733"&gt;CLICK HERE&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Have fun, and have a great night!&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;www.IsisTheEnchantress.com&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5926346866341577544-3462291987785632697?l=isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/feeds/3462291987785632697/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/11/something-fun-for-you-are-you-fan-of.html#comment-form' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/3462291987785632697'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/3462291987785632697'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/11/something-fun-for-you-are-you-fan-of.html' title='Something fun for you | Are You a Fan of Puzzles?'/><author><name>Isis THE Enchantress</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5926346866341577544.post-7636570421556318626</id><published>2011-11-08T01:29:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2011-11-08T01:29:56.829-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='video'/><title type='text'>A Musical Love Letter | Video</title><content type='html'>I just watched this, and it is fun and beautiful.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The music danced to is What the World Needs Now&lt;br /&gt;(is Love Sweet Love).  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I thought it was awesome.

However, I am also excited because I &lt;br /&gt;will likely be incorporating them into what I am&lt;br /&gt;creating for a December game...a hint of which you &lt;br /&gt;will find on this blog - if you are observant.  :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That is all I am going to say for now, other than &lt;br /&gt;the fact that you will want to play as much as possible&lt;br /&gt;starting December 1.

In learning more about him, the one thing that I &lt;br /&gt;admired was his attitude about writing.  He called himself&lt;br /&gt;a writer who read his own work.  He also believed that &lt;br /&gt;the point of a writer is to say things as they are.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I remember has a child being told that the best way to &lt;br /&gt;write was to do it like one speaks.  It sounds quite &lt;br /&gt;simple, really, and yet many seem to have difficulty &lt;br /&gt;putting their words down "on paper."  (Even knowing &lt;br /&gt;this I sometimes have this problem, myself).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have found that writing as one speaks can certainly vary.&lt;br /&gt;I know some who are to the point verbally, and write in&lt;br /&gt;the same, exacting, brief, and to the point way.  I once&lt;br /&gt;had one of those people tell me that I write too much.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;While I reecognize that some people have neither the time&lt;br /&gt;nor the interest to read something of length these days,&lt;br /&gt;it has not inhibited my writing style.  To write any&lt;br /&gt;other way would be to be someone other than myself.  I&lt;br /&gt;suppose that might mean that my audience might not be as&lt;br /&gt;large, but I am OK with that.  I approach my calls in &lt;br /&gt;very much the same way I write: I am not for everyone.&lt;br /&gt;But for those who have an appreciation for me and my way&lt;br /&gt;of doing things, we're gonna have a great time together.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is becoming clearer and clearer to me every day that &lt;br /&gt;the world is limited by the limits try to place on it&lt;br /&gt;by our labels and expectations.  There often times that&lt;br /&gt;someone who has an open mind will find something he&lt;br /&gt;didn't expect when talking to me...something those who&lt;br /&gt;try to box and label me will miss.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is no pleasing everyone.  It is just not possible.&lt;br /&gt;There are no ready-made, universal answers.  Even if we&lt;br /&gt;feel pressed to believe so.  I think the more we think&lt;br /&gt;that "others" have "the" answers, the more we will find&lt;br /&gt;ourselves lacking in some way.  I really don't think&lt;br /&gt;anyone has "the" answers, but rather are (1) either good&lt;br /&gt;at faking it, or (2) have found something that works&lt;br /&gt;for them - at least for the time being.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Andy, and others, have said there are no unique ideas&lt;br /&gt;in the world, and yet we often will jump on the bandwagon&lt;br /&gt;that screams "new."  We will turn to the person who seems&lt;br /&gt;to know what we need - at least that is what they will&lt;br /&gt;tell us, and we might allow ourselves to believe in our&lt;br /&gt;most anxious and desperate moments.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We (as a whole, and in general, even though I don't &lt;br /&gt;generally support generalizations) seem to be very&lt;br /&gt;uncomfortable with the things we don't know, straining&lt;br /&gt;to fit those things into what is already known, often&lt;br /&gt;unwittingly, perhaps, limiting our options.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Who knows what is possible, unless we are willing to &lt;br /&gt;remain in the discomfort and stop judging those things&lt;br /&gt;and those people who refuse to be defined by the &lt;br /&gt;current conventions?  Who knows what is lost when we&lt;br /&gt;try to force ourselves to see things in the only way&lt;br /&gt;we know how?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sometimes it may be good for someone like Andy to come&lt;br /&gt;along and state the obvious, and to break the hold of&lt;br /&gt;the hypnosis that we have been under.  It may be good&lt;br /&gt;for someone to take the mould and break or bend it in&lt;br /&gt;the process of allowing rediscovery.  It may be good&lt;br /&gt;to see someone expressing themselves when so often we&lt;br /&gt;are witness to those who would feel forced to silence&lt;br /&gt;themselves for one reason, or another.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is much to be said for our individual expression&lt;br /&gt;and to the degree that we allow ourselves that we will&lt;br /&gt;find that the world in which we live will be affected&lt;br /&gt;in one way or another.  It is one thing for another&lt;br /&gt;to try to silence us, it is a different one all together &lt;br /&gt;for us to choose to silence ourselves.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here's to what Andy represented and what he stood for,&lt;br /&gt;and for his approach to the conversation of life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As always, have a good one :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you enjoyed this entry, &lt;br /&gt;(or found it helpful)&lt;br /&gt;please click below:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.niteflirt.com/messages/click_payment_button?id=57294203"&gt;&lt;img src="http://listenandobey.com/pics/thanksisis.gif"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;www.IsisTheEnchantress.com&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5926346866341577544-8867977673160394612?l=isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/feeds/8867977673160394612/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/11/on-expressing-oneself.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/8867977673160394612'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/8867977673160394612'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/11/on-expressing-oneself.html' title='On Expressing Oneself'/><author><name>Isis THE Enchantress</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5926346866341577544.post-8877125160364110744</id><published>2011-11-05T17:34:00.001-04:00</published><updated>2011-11-05T17:35:49.630-04:00</updated><title type='text'>Pure Love for Pure Love :)</title><content type='html'>&lt;i&gt;i want to thank you for being so so &lt;br /&gt;very much more than i could have imagined &lt;br /&gt;when i first found your presence on &lt;br /&gt;the internet...your mp3 Pure Love was so &lt;br /&gt;beautiful and touched me deeply. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i can only imagine a world where everyone &lt;br /&gt;interacted with each other with this &lt;br /&gt;feeling for one another. i will have to do &lt;br /&gt;my part to help spread this feeling. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thank you again for this gift.  &lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-ttmagoo&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thanks ttmagoo.

You can be hypnotized&lt;br /&gt;by text, by audio, by video, by someone who&lt;br /&gt;never says a word.  There are so many ways&lt;br /&gt;that you can be not only affected, but &lt;br /&gt;greatly manipulated by another, and not &lt;br /&gt;realize what is happening until it is too&lt;br /&gt;late.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yes...having direct contact may seem more&lt;br /&gt;scary, more real, and stronger, and perhaps&lt;br /&gt;it could be, but &lt;i&gt;I'd say while it may&lt;br /&gt;SEEM to be that way, the greater danger IS&lt;br /&gt;discounting/minimizing what can happen in &lt;br /&gt;other contexts&lt;/i&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Any questions?  As always just ask.&lt;br /&gt;Have a great weekend.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you enjoyed this entry, &lt;br /&gt;(or found it helpful)&lt;br /&gt;please click below:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.niteflirt.com/messages/click_payment_button?id=57294203"&gt;&lt;img src="http://listenandobey.com/pics/thanksisis.gif"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;www.IsisTheEnchantress.com&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5926346866341577544-9113061377196680825?l=isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/feeds/9113061377196680825/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/11/hypnotic-landscape-bigger-than-you.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/9113061377196680825'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/9113061377196680825'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/11/hypnotic-landscape-bigger-than-you.html' title='Hypnotic Landscape:  Bigger than you think'/><author><name>Isis THE Enchantress</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5926346866341577544.post-3224915587207113921</id><published>2011-11-05T16:44:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2011-11-05T16:44:16.014-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='destiny'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='fate'/><title type='text'>What if...</title><content type='html'>There are times in my life that I do or &lt;br /&gt;don't do something that creates a ripple&lt;br /&gt;effect I could never have seen coming.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I was thinking about this recently as&lt;br /&gt;I thought about the fact that I am here,&lt;br /&gt;doing what I am doing in the hypnotic,&lt;br /&gt;erotic world.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If I had stayed in a relationship that I&lt;br /&gt;was once in there is absolutely NO WAY&lt;br /&gt;I could be doing what I am doing now.&lt;br /&gt;ZERO chance.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The person I was with was not the type&lt;br /&gt;of person who could have withstood me &lt;br /&gt;talking to hundreds (and likely thousands&lt;br /&gt;at this point) of guys on a regular basis, &lt;br /&gt;and in a sexual way, to boot.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Even if I had become a hypnotist, there&lt;br /&gt;is just no way it would have been something&lt;br /&gt;that could have become what it has.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In thinking about that, I wondered if perhaps&lt;br /&gt;it was a reason for our parting (even though&lt;br /&gt;it happened long before I knew what was coming).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After all, if we had stayed together there &lt;br /&gt;are some wonderful people that I have interacted&lt;br /&gt;with that I would never have been able to have&lt;br /&gt;that pleasure.  In addition, there have been&lt;br /&gt;those I have been able to help that I would&lt;br /&gt;have never been able to help - had my life&lt;br /&gt;taken a different course.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are also things that I have gotten &lt;br /&gt;for myself in this "leg" of the journey&lt;br /&gt;that may have been a direct result of this &lt;br /&gt;context and environment.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In sum total, I would say it has been a &lt;br /&gt;good thing, despite some of the seeming&lt;br /&gt;hiccups and frustrations.  I know there are&lt;br /&gt;all kinds of beliefs about destiny and "A"&lt;br /&gt;Plan.  As I have said before I don't know&lt;br /&gt;what I think in that regard, but I do see&lt;br /&gt;how many of my experiences, beliefs, thoughts,&lt;br /&gt;actions have come together in ways I could&lt;br /&gt;never have imagined creating intentionally.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Any which way, I am thankful for those of you&lt;br /&gt;that have been a positive and affirming part &lt;br /&gt;of the process that is my life.  I never &lt;br /&gt;imagined that my modest start into this realm&lt;br /&gt;would come to be what it now is.  I feel very&lt;br /&gt;fortunate to have met most of you.  :P&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is am amazing ride.

So I told&lt;br /&gt;him as much.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I forget what he said immediately&lt;br /&gt;following, but I again suggested &lt;br /&gt;that perhaps he had gotten the wrong&lt;br /&gt;person.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;His response was "Whatever. F*ck You,"&lt;br /&gt;punctuated by a hang up.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When we got off the phone, I checked&lt;br /&gt;my account, and this guy has spoken&lt;br /&gt;with me previously which leads me to&lt;br /&gt;believe that he knew a thing or two&lt;br /&gt;about me, but perhaps chose to ignore&lt;br /&gt;that I wasn't "like that."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I suspect he has this desire/fantasy&lt;br /&gt;to be treated a certain way, and that&lt;br /&gt;others may indulge him.  The problem&lt;br /&gt;is I am real, and I treat people in &lt;br /&gt;a real way.  If I am not what a person&lt;br /&gt;is looking for, then I will be sure to&lt;br /&gt;let him know.  I don't just "jump in"&lt;br /&gt;where a person wants me.  It doesn't&lt;br /&gt;work like that - at least not in my&lt;br /&gt;erotic, hypnotic world.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;*Sigh*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Calls like this suck. On the other &lt;br /&gt;hand, I had some other thoughts today&lt;br /&gt;that I will share with you in a &lt;br /&gt;separate entry as it has a much &lt;br /&gt;different feel and tone.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Til next time.&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;www.IsisTheEnchantress.com&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5926346866341577544-4936424609684813290?l=isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/feeds/4936424609684813290/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/11/some-people.html#comment-form' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/4936424609684813290'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/4936424609684813290'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/11/some-people.html' title='Some People.'/><author><name>Isis THE Enchantress</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5926346866341577544.post-1705238245498585799</id><published>2011-11-03T22:02:00.004-04:00</published><updated>2011-11-03T22:04:56.940-04:00</updated><title type='text'>Just Wondering...</title><content type='html'>Is anyone thinking of me this very moment?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you were thinking of me at this time,&lt;br /&gt;on this day...you should let me know by&lt;br /&gt;clicking below.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.niteflirt.com/messages/click_payment_button?id=60820802"&gt;&lt;img src="http://listenandobey.com/pics/thinkingofisis.gif" height="201" width="201" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;www.IsisTheEnchantress.com&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5926346866341577544-1705238245498585799?l=isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/feeds/1705238245498585799/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/11/just-wondering.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/1705238245498585799'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/1705238245498585799'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/11/just-wondering.html' title='Just Wondering...'/><author><name>Isis THE Enchantress</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5926346866341577544.post-4696569345742929329</id><published>2011-11-03T21:12:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2011-11-03T21:12:14.449-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='rules'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='game of life'/><title type='text'>I Try</title><content type='html'>Today I was talking to someone about something,&lt;br /&gt;and he said I would do the right thing.  When&lt;br /&gt;I asked how he knew that what I did would be&lt;br /&gt;the right thing, he told me because I tell him&lt;br /&gt;to use his intuition, and he was certain I must&lt;br /&gt;follow my own advice.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well nah, nah, nah, nah.&lt;br /&gt;*Grumble* and a giggle &lt;br /&gt;(not really, but it sounded good).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I do live much of my life by my gut feelings, &lt;br /&gt;but there are times I am like some I talk to,&lt;br /&gt;and am not clear which part of me is doing the&lt;br /&gt;talking.  Of course I hope it is the part that&lt;br /&gt;does the best job of looking out for me.  The&lt;br /&gt;only "problem" is that just because it looks&lt;br /&gt;out for me, doesn't mean I won't be hurt.  It&lt;br /&gt;doesn't mean I won't be disappointed.  It &lt;br /&gt;doesn't mean I will get what I want.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sometimes we walk into situations with full&lt;br /&gt;force and with the best of expectations and &lt;br /&gt;other times it may be more cautiously, but&lt;br /&gt;how we enter a situation doesn't matter as&lt;br /&gt;much as how we potentially exit one.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And that is important because unfortunately, &lt;br /&gt;despite our best of intentions and our &lt;br /&gt;desires, other people in our lives may have &lt;br /&gt;other ideas, and we may never know what they &lt;br /&gt;are, or understand them - even if we do.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, while we may think we know what the heck&lt;br /&gt;we are doing at times, we may not have a &lt;br /&gt;freakin' clue.  The thing is to also be &lt;br /&gt;careful about reacting to the past in the&lt;br /&gt;present.  If you do - or don't do - something&lt;br /&gt;because of what happened in the past, some&lt;br /&gt;will call it learning.  Others might call&lt;br /&gt;it fear.  One can be built upon, the other&lt;br /&gt;takes away.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Which one is which can't always be clear.  &lt;br /&gt;I had a moment in my life when I was very&lt;br /&gt;clear that many of my past decisions were&lt;br /&gt;coming from a place of fear - despite the &lt;br /&gt;fact that at the time I thought I was &lt;br /&gt;"facing the fear, and doing it any way."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It was a very devastating moment.  It was also&lt;br /&gt;a moment for me to build upon.  I was no longer&lt;br /&gt;on a false foundation, and could now build &lt;br /&gt;something different - if I chose to.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'd like to say it gets easier.  But I am not&lt;br /&gt;sure I believe that.  But what I do believe is&lt;br /&gt;that over time we become a bit more aware that&lt;br /&gt;there are things we do that hinder us and there&lt;br /&gt;are things we do that help us, and sometimes &lt;br /&gt;they come disguised as their opposite.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the game of life there seem to be rules that&lt;br /&gt;aren't meant to be understood, rules that aren't&lt;br /&gt;totally spelled out, rules that seem to be made&lt;br /&gt;up as we go along.  Makes me wonder if the rules&lt;br /&gt;really matter at all, or if it is how we play&lt;br /&gt;in and around them that has the value.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As always, I welcome YOUR thoughts.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Have a good night.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you enjoyed this entry, &lt;br /&gt;(or found it helpful)&lt;br /&gt;please click below:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.niteflirt.com/messages/click_payment_button?id=57294203"&gt;&lt;img src="http://listenandobey.com/pics/thanksisis.gif"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;www.IsisTheEnchantress.com&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5926346866341577544-4696569345742929329?l=isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/feeds/4696569345742929329/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/11/i-try.html#comment-form' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/4696569345742929329'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/4696569345742929329'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/11/i-try.html' title='I Try'/><author><name>Isis THE Enchantress</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5926346866341577544.post-8200177663503983754</id><published>2011-11-02T15:06:00.003-04:00</published><updated>2011-11-02T19:31:27.014-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='twinkle'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='star'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='love'/><title type='text'>Being Creative | Image</title><content type='html'>I often get distracted.

To all of those shining,&lt;br /&gt;wish fulfilling stars out there, in all&lt;br /&gt;forms.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Enjoy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;img src="http://listenandobey.com/pics/thestar.gif"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Edited to add this additional version:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="http://listenandobey.com/pics/thestarv2.gif"&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you enjoyed this entry, &lt;br /&gt;(or found it helpful)&lt;br /&gt;please click below:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.niteflirt.com/messages/click_payment_button?id=57294203"&gt;&lt;img src="http://listenandobey.com/pics/thanksisis.gif"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;www.IsisTheEnchantress.com&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5926346866341577544-8200177663503983754?l=isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/feeds/8200177663503983754/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/11/being-creative-image.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/8200177663503983754'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/8200177663503983754'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/11/being-creative-image.html' title='Being Creative | Image'/><author><name>Isis THE Enchantress</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5926346866341577544.post-3740777794672456795</id><published>2011-10-31T17:24:00.012-04:00</published><updated>2011-11-01T00:39:12.293-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='thanksgiving'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='turkey'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='treat'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='game'/><title type='text'>Turkey or Treat!</title><content type='html'>Turkey or Treat starts tomorrow.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Details to come - here - shortly.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Are you ready?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;UPDATE:  11/1/11&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ready or not, here it is!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Welcome to November and Turkey or Treat!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This month will be much easier and &lt;br /&gt;straight forward than last month.&lt;br /&gt;Technically it will also be enhanced&lt;br /&gt;thanks to someone who was able to &lt;br /&gt;code the page for me with JavaScript.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So...the first and most important &lt;br /&gt;thing you need to know is that the&lt;br /&gt;page requires you to have &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;JavaScript&lt;br /&gt;enabled.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is a calendar, just like last &lt;br /&gt;month, but now you won't have to guess&lt;br /&gt;the day, as it will automatically take&lt;br /&gt;that information from your computer. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You can only click the current day,&lt;br /&gt;and you can only play once per day.   &lt;br /&gt;Any additional plays will net you &lt;br /&gt;the same pay-to-view email.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are 4 types of emails, how many&lt;br /&gt;of each type is in parenthesis:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;font color="red"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Turkeys (10)&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The turkey gobbled your treat.&lt;br /&gt;Better luck next time. :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;font color="red"&gt;&lt;b&gt;MP3s (5)&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You are treated to one of my&lt;br /&gt;recordings.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;font color="red"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Images (10)&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You are treated to one of my&lt;br /&gt;images.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;font color="red"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Treat - for me (5)&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Treat me by asking me what I &lt;br /&gt;want and/or accept the Payment&lt;br /&gt;Request in the email.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What you get will be picked randomly.&lt;br /&gt;There is no way to know what you will &lt;br /&gt;receive.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Since the programming is at random, you &lt;br /&gt;may also receive duplicates.  However, &lt;br /&gt;the pay emails are only $2 each.  So when &lt;br /&gt;you receive the files you will get them &lt;br /&gt;for a steal.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The odds of the turkeys gobbling up all&lt;br /&gt;of your treats are likely minimal, but &lt;br /&gt;should you find that you are playing&lt;br /&gt;regularly and aren't getting any treats, &lt;br /&gt;talk to me, and we will see what can be &lt;br /&gt;arranged.  The same goes if you are such &lt;br /&gt;a big fan that it just so happens you &lt;br /&gt;have the files you are getting.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is meant to be fun, as always.  &lt;br /&gt;Of course, it helps if you are a fan&lt;br /&gt;of mine and enjoy what I do, and like&lt;br /&gt;doing things for me, then no matter&lt;br /&gt;what you do it is a win. :) It also &lt;br /&gt;means that our sessions can help to &lt;br /&gt;make your playing more interesting/&lt;br /&gt;mean more.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you have any questions, please &lt;br /&gt;just ask.  Also, since this is&lt;br /&gt;new, there could be hiccups, so please&lt;br /&gt;be patient.  And let's have some fun!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let the games continue. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://listenandobey.com/november/turkeyortreat.html"&gt;Click here for Turkey or Treat&lt;/a&gt;!&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;www.IsisTheEnchantress.com&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5926346866341577544-3740777794672456795?l=isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/feeds/3740777794672456795/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/10/turkey-or-treat_31.html#comment-form' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/3740777794672456795'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/3740777794672456795'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/10/turkey-or-treat_31.html' title='Turkey or Treat!'/><author><name>Isis THE Enchantress</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5926346866341577544.post-4401952514023527208</id><published>2011-10-30T19:31:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2011-10-30T19:31:49.420-04:00</updated><title type='text'>Trick or Treat Ends...</title><content type='html'>tomorrow.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Wow.

It doesn't look good,&lt;br /&gt;though.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It has me thinking about what I know of this&lt;br /&gt;person's life.  This person has lived a life&lt;br /&gt;of resignation.  This person has done what &lt;br /&gt;they can to make the intolerable tolerable.&lt;br /&gt;This person has also had 5 heart attacks.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Some say that the mind and body have nothing&lt;br /&gt;to do with one another.  I don't know what&lt;br /&gt;I think in an absolute sense, but when I see&lt;br /&gt;someone who hasn't been happy having an &lt;br /&gt;attack of the heart, it doesn't seem impossible&lt;br /&gt;to consider a link.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is a person who hasn't been perfect, but&lt;br /&gt;then no one is.  This person did a lot for me&lt;br /&gt;at one time in my life, and for that I will &lt;br /&gt;always be grateful, as it wasn't something &lt;br /&gt;they had to do.  At the time I had wished for &lt;br /&gt;more, but had to do my best to recognize what&lt;br /&gt;was instead of getting upset for what wasn't.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Of course that was the logical part of me.&lt;br /&gt;Other parts weren't in such great accord.  :P&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I don't know what is "better" the unexpected&lt;br /&gt;death, like the race car driver who recently&lt;br /&gt;died, or the one you know is coming.  Any&lt;br /&gt;which way we slice it, death is an inevitability,&lt;br /&gt;even though we seem to act as though there is&lt;br /&gt;always going to be another...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I watched the movie The Adjustment Bureau last&lt;br /&gt;night.  In it (don't read if you don't want me&lt;br /&gt;to spoil anything for you) Matt Damon and a&lt;br /&gt;woman feel inexplicably, powerfully drawn &lt;br /&gt;together.  They meet the first time in a men's&lt;br /&gt;bathroom.   They aren't ever supposed to meet&lt;br /&gt;again, but then he runs into her on a bus.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He gets her number this time, only to be &lt;br /&gt;"mugged," and he loses her number.  Three &lt;br /&gt;years pass and he continues to ride the same&lt;br /&gt;bus at the same time hoping to run into her.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He had been advised after the second run in&lt;br /&gt;that it was not part of The Plan for them&lt;br /&gt;to be together.  Apparently The Chairman had&lt;br /&gt;a plan, and there were those who did things&lt;br /&gt;like spill coffee, interrupt the internet, and&lt;br /&gt;various other things that would help to "adjust"&lt;br /&gt;the outcome that needed to occur - according to&lt;br /&gt;The Greater Plan.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is a movie about the exercise of Free Will.&lt;br /&gt;The characters in the movie suggest that it is&lt;br /&gt;just an illusion, and yet Matt Damon and his&lt;br /&gt;love interest seem to prove otherwise as a way&lt;br /&gt;of saying that outcomes desired by free will &lt;br /&gt;sometimes take effort, and need to be striven for.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are many pieces to the movie that make &lt;br /&gt;me think.  I don't know about you but I have had&lt;br /&gt;moments in my life that the inexplicable happened&lt;br /&gt;in the most powerful of ways.  At one point in the&lt;br /&gt;movie the woman says she was supposed to get &lt;br /&gt;married in those three years, but didn't because&lt;br /&gt;she couldn't stop thinking of Matt's character.&lt;br /&gt;It does seem silly, perhaps, and yet there are &lt;br /&gt;those times in life we seemingly can't let go &lt;br /&gt;of something, despite how illogical it is.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Why do I tell you about this in this entry?  &lt;br /&gt;Because it is interesting to me that I saw this&lt;br /&gt;movie at this time.  We are only here for a &lt;br /&gt;relatively short time.  It seems to me that we&lt;br /&gt;do ourselves an incredible disservice when we&lt;br /&gt;do what my family member has done.  So many on&lt;br /&gt;their death bed, it has been said, mourn what&lt;br /&gt;they didn't do rather than focus on what they&lt;br /&gt;have done.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In my life I have gotten better about being who&lt;br /&gt;I am as much as possible - despite what the &lt;br /&gt;consequences may be.  In some odd way it has&lt;br /&gt;given me peace.  Even as I may be losing another&lt;br /&gt;family member soon I know that I have said what&lt;br /&gt;I needed to express.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I feel a bit all over the place at the moment, &lt;br /&gt;but I do think it all ties together in some way.  &lt;br /&gt;How in the world do we get to have what we want &lt;br /&gt;in life, unless we are willing to express ourselves &lt;br /&gt;in the words and actions that help to create the&lt;br /&gt;life that we would like to have instead of the &lt;br /&gt;one that has been created by the flow that seems &lt;br /&gt;to have carried us along. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If we are happy with "the flow," then great.&lt;br /&gt;But if we are only settling or making do then&lt;br /&gt;it seems to me that there might be other things&lt;br /&gt;that are worthy of pursuit.  And I don't know &lt;br /&gt;about you, but I think if that is the case, we&lt;br /&gt;deserve to go after what we want, whether we &lt;br /&gt;get it or not.  Perhaps a near miss will bring&lt;br /&gt;us closer to what we truly want any way.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Maybe.  Maybe not.  Who the heck knows?  I &lt;br /&gt;certainly don't.  At the same time all we have&lt;br /&gt;in life is our perspective.  It will either &lt;br /&gt;empower or disempower us, and it is our choice&lt;br /&gt;which one we choose.  Circumstances inherently&lt;br /&gt;have no meaning, but it is how we identify &lt;br /&gt;with it that gives us the life we live day to&lt;br /&gt;day.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One last thought:  Pablo Picasso said,&lt;br /&gt;“Everything you can imagine is real.”  If that&lt;br /&gt;is the case, this movie could be a possible&lt;br /&gt;version of reality, and it could be a message&lt;br /&gt;that tells us that there are some things that &lt;br /&gt;we want that we can have, as long as we act &lt;br /&gt;on our desire and have a willingness to at &lt;br /&gt;times pursue what even seems to be the &lt;br /&gt;impossible.  Even if it is not, it still &lt;br /&gt;seems to me to be a message to consider.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here's to living a life you love, and having &lt;br /&gt;each day be a testament to your desires and &lt;br /&gt;desired outcomes.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;www.IsisTheEnchantress.com&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5926346866341577544-248054446334123398?l=isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/feeds/248054446334123398/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/10/life-goes-on.html#comment-form' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/248054446334123398'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/248054446334123398'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/10/life-goes-on.html' title='Life goes on...'/><author><name>Isis THE Enchantress</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5926346866341577544.post-666442425568938957</id><published>2011-10-28T01:26:00.001-04:00</published><updated>2011-10-28T01:26:00.236-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='jpg'/><title type='text'>Pleasure Awaits | JPG</title><content type='html'>If you liked the gif file, perhaps you'll&lt;br /&gt;enjoy the still image as well.

Sometimes I figure &lt;br /&gt;they may have found someone else they enjoy more.&lt;br /&gt;Sometimes I wonder if they're doing what they want&lt;br /&gt;to be doing.  Sometimes I wonder if it is something&lt;br /&gt;I said or did.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These people cross my mind from time to time, and&lt;br /&gt;often I never hear from them again, and never know&lt;br /&gt;why.  Occasionally, though, there are those who &lt;br /&gt;disappear on me only to surface several months, or&lt;br /&gt;even years, later.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When they return, there seems to be a commonality&lt;br /&gt;to what they're experience was:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Something happened that made them get scared, or &lt;br /&gt;uneasy.  It isn't something *I* have done, but rather&lt;br /&gt;they are scared, perhaps, of what I would or could do.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They feel guilty for not saying anything to me, even&lt;br /&gt;though I am often still very much on their mind.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They return with enthusiasm for me and my work telling&lt;br /&gt;me that no one compares to me.  Of course, they could&lt;br /&gt;just be saying that to make me feel good, but when I&lt;br /&gt;let them know that if it really wasn't the case, it's&lt;br /&gt;OK, and I want to know, they still insist that it is&lt;br /&gt;absolutely true.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Time and time again I tell people to let me know what&lt;br /&gt;they're thinking.  Even if tomorrow you wanted to &lt;br /&gt;stop being hypnotized by me the best thing you could&lt;br /&gt;do for yourself is to talk to me, instead of stopping&lt;br /&gt;cold turkey.  If you have asked me to do things to &lt;br /&gt;affect how you feel about me, they may still be&lt;br /&gt;operating in the background of your mind, whether we&lt;br /&gt;ever speak again, or not.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I also tell people that they have to trust their gut.&lt;br /&gt;If you are responding to a fear, your gut isn't &lt;br /&gt;engaged, and you may not be making the best decision&lt;br /&gt;for yourself.  If you trusted me enough to speak with &lt;br /&gt;me a number of times, then trust me enough to do &lt;br /&gt;whatever it takes for you to have a good experience -&lt;br /&gt;even if it is the last one.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have to laugh when occasionally someone will tell&lt;br /&gt;me that they were scared of me (even though I never&lt;br /&gt;did anything harmful, but just because they knew that&lt;br /&gt;I was able to affect them), and then proceeded&lt;br /&gt;to call others.  That really doesn't make much sense,&lt;br /&gt;now does it?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you know me at all, you know I value communication.&lt;br /&gt;You also know that I find that most people have &lt;br /&gt;difficulty communicating what they feel - especially&lt;br /&gt;when the feelings are the strongest.  It is because&lt;br /&gt;I know, and recognize, these facts I ask you to just&lt;br /&gt;let me know what is going on.  It doesn't have to be&lt;br /&gt;perfect or eloquent, but just start somewhere.  Give&lt;br /&gt;us a starting place.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I promise you I don't want you to go anywhere you &lt;br /&gt;don't want to go, and I am not in the business of &lt;br /&gt;creating destinations for me to convince you to like.&lt;br /&gt;I got into this because I thought it was an awesome&lt;br /&gt;avenue for pleasure, and that is the underpining of&lt;br /&gt;what I do.  If you don't enjoy yourself, I can't&lt;br /&gt;possibly enjoy myself.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I really hope that if you are someone that I have &lt;br /&gt;spoken to with any kind of regularity that you won't&lt;br /&gt;pull a disappearing act on me, but if you do, please&lt;br /&gt;know that I will never hold it against you, you &lt;br /&gt;should never hold it aganst yourself, and that you&lt;br /&gt;are always welcome to make a return.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Have a wonderful night!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you enjoyed this entry, &lt;br /&gt;(or found it helpful)&lt;br /&gt;please click below:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.niteflirt.com/messages/click_payment_button?id=57294203"&gt;&lt;img src="http://listenandobey.com/pics/thanksisis.gif"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;www.IsisTheEnchantress.com&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5926346866341577544-7637818291017307211?l=isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/feeds/7637818291017307211/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/10/disappearing-acts.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/7637818291017307211'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/7637818291017307211'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/10/disappearing-acts.html' title='Disappearing Acts'/><author><name>Isis THE Enchantress</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5926346866341577544.post-4087082804408921010</id><published>2011-10-23T21:06:00.003-04:00</published><updated>2011-11-01T18:47:42.143-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='hypnosis myths'/><title type='text'>A few thoughts on a few "Myths"</title><content type='html'>Whenever people talk about "myths" regarding hypnosis, &lt;br /&gt;I find that the absolute statements lead to things &lt;br /&gt;that are sometimes misleading.  There are usually&lt;br /&gt;caveats that are important to be aware of so that you&lt;br /&gt;might realize a potential problem/pitfall.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The more you know the better chance, perhaps, you have&lt;br /&gt;at staying out of trouble.  Even though it is difficult&lt;br /&gt;to have any surefire ways to prevent that from &lt;br /&gt;happening when someone knows what they are doing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here are a few of my thoughts on some of these "myths."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1) &lt;i&gt;Only weak minded/unintelligent people can be hypnotized &lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Many of those who have called me over the years are very intelligent individuals and among them are engineers, architects, lawyers, programmers.  Often those who are intelligent are quite able to be hypnotized.  They may not think so, as their thinking may get in the way at times, however, whether or not a person is suggestible, and how suggestible they are is not necessarily contingent on what they do for a living.  Having said that, those who are in high stress jobs are more ripe, in some ways, for the picking as there may be a desire to escape.  In addition, there are ways that those who are in the "know" know how to side step that thinking part of you in a way that you could be broadsided.   To say the weak minded are the only ones who can be hypnotized is to say something like only the bad drivers have accidents, and we both know that is not true.  However we also know that a good driver might be better able to avert an incident, however being better able doesn't mean being immune.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2) &lt;i&gt;A hypnotist has complete control over you when you are hypnotized &lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How this plays out depends on a number of factors.  It could depend on how suggestible a person is, how deep the person goes, how good the hypnotist is with suggestions that can manipulate a particular outcome, how stressed out a person is.  Some will say you will "never do anything against your will."  If the hypnotist is able to manipulate that part of you - make something fall within your will - or get you deep enough your will isn't necessarily a part of the equation, it is quite possible to have outcomes that suggest that there is complete control.  And even if there isn't complete control while hypnotized, if the hypnotist is able to manimpulate you into and out of hypnotic states, then it won't matter whether there is "complete control" in that moment, or not, as there will be other moments that will provide additional opportunities to create an outcome desired by the hypnotist.  I also know of cases where it didn't matter what the mind was thinking or feeling, the body and voice was betraying it. To some that may sound erotic and enticing, but I can assure you from some who have been on the receiving end of it, it is no fun, at all.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3) &lt;i&gt;If you can hear the hypnotist/remember what was said then you were not hypnotized&lt;/i&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are many levels to hypnosis.  If you watch a movie and lose track of where you are and what is going on around you, you are aware of the voices on the screen, and you are in a trance state.  Just because you hear the hypnotist and/or remember what was said does not mean that you weren't at the effect of a trance.  Some people make the mistake of thinking that they haven't been affected when they have actually been quite affected.  Much is possible at even a light state of of hypnosis.  So many keep saying they want to go deeper and deeper, probably so feel like something happened, but it isn't necessary to have fun and enjoy yourself, or worse, get f*cked up.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4) &lt;i&gt;You can remain permanently stuck in hypnosis&lt;/i&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is said that when you go to sleep you are no longer in a hypnotic state.  I have nothing to say to this that would suggest otherwise.  However, when you go to sleep at night and when you awaken you are in hypnotic like states which can be manipulated by someone who knows how.  If someone really wanted to manipulate you all they would have to do is take advantage of those states, and you can be in hypnosis from the minute you awaken to the time you go to sleep.  So while you most likely cannot get stuck in hypnosis, it doesn't mean you couldn't be spending your "waking" hours in a hypnotic sleep.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As always, if you have any questions, please feel&lt;br /&gt;free to ask, and play and stay safe!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you enjoyed this entry, &lt;br /&gt;(or found it helpful)&lt;br /&gt;please click below:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.niteflirt.com/messages/click_payment_button?id=57294203"&gt;&lt;img src="http://listenandobey.com/pics/thanksisis.gif"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;www.IsisTheEnchantress.com&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5926346866341577544-4087082804408921010?l=isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/feeds/4087082804408921010/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/10/few-thoughts-on-few-myths.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/4087082804408921010'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/4087082804408921010'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/10/few-thoughts-on-few-myths.html' title='A few thoughts on a few &quot;Myths&quot;'/><author><name>Isis THE Enchantress</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5926346866341577544.post-4829514410219463912</id><published>2011-10-22T20:38:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2011-10-22T20:38:27.247-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='video'/><title type='text'>The Ups and Downs | Video</title><content type='html'>This is about a beautiful song called God Gave&lt;br /&gt;Me You.

It hurts, but&lt;br /&gt;I have had worse.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I got to thinking about how life&lt;br /&gt;is like this situation.  I got to&lt;br /&gt;thinking about how things grow&lt;br /&gt;and grow. Sometimes we attend to&lt;br /&gt;them and make them look nice, and&lt;br /&gt;sometimes they grow any way.  And&lt;br /&gt;then, one day, they suddenly break,&lt;br /&gt;and sometimes in a painful way.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If we continue to let things grow they&lt;br /&gt;may be more and more beautiful, and&lt;br /&gt;they also may be better off if we&lt;br /&gt;paid some attention to them and did&lt;br /&gt;some pruning every now again.  Perhaps&lt;br /&gt;it is the pruning that allows us to&lt;br /&gt;keep what we got, and maybe even makes &lt;br /&gt;it stronger.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If I hadn't let the nail grow so long,&lt;br /&gt;it likely wouldn't be so short now.&lt;br /&gt;Maybe if I had been willing to let&lt;br /&gt;it go, I would have had more as a result.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Interestingly (perhaps) it makes me&lt;br /&gt;consider what it would take to keep&lt;br /&gt;the length of the nails I still have.&lt;br /&gt;Do I cut them down, or do I let them&lt;br /&gt;stay?  Obviously, I run the risk that&lt;br /&gt;they, too, could suffer the same fate.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Any which way it goes (and I know you&lt;br /&gt;want to know so badly which way that&lt;br /&gt;will be, don't you?  LOL) I think it&lt;br /&gt;was a worthwhile event, as it brought&lt;br /&gt;something to my attention that I had&lt;br /&gt;never really considered before in this&lt;br /&gt;way, and perhaps it will be something &lt;br /&gt;of value to you, too.  I am sure this &lt;br /&gt;metaphor could be fleshed out even more, &lt;br /&gt;but even in its minimal state, &lt;i&gt;it would &lt;br /&gt;seem to me that it is an example of&lt;br /&gt;how painful it is sometimes to keep&lt;br /&gt;things as long as we do.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Have a great day.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you enjoyed this entry, &lt;br /&gt;(or found it helpful)&lt;br /&gt;please click below:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.niteflirt.com/messages/click_payment_button?id=57294203"&gt;&lt;img src="http://listenandobey.com/pics/thanksisis.gif"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;www.IsisTheEnchantress.com&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5926346866341577544-6551506411905190497?l=isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/feeds/6551506411905190497/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/10/broken.html#comment-form' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/6551506411905190497'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/6551506411905190497'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/10/broken.html' title='Broken.'/><author><name>Isis THE Enchantress</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5926346866341577544.post-8350887744721443924</id><published>2011-10-18T22:32:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2011-10-18T22:32:52.393-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='video'/><title type='text'>what you think=what is? | Video</title><content type='html'>&lt;iframe width="390" height="294" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/5_JOdtqqyQI?rel=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We often think we "know" what someone &lt;br /&gt;else is saying, feeling, thinking, doing...&lt;br /&gt;and we can be wrong.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are many times disagreements and &lt;br /&gt;misunderstandings are a result of what&lt;br /&gt;we THINK we know.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Before jumping to any conclusions, and&lt;br /&gt;reacting, you may want to consider that&lt;br /&gt;how something appears isn't how it is,&lt;br /&gt;at all.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Have a great day!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you enjoyed this entry, &lt;br /&gt;(or found it helpful)&lt;br /&gt;please click below:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.niteflirt.com/messages/click_payment_button?id=57294203"&gt;&lt;img src="http://listenandobey.com/pics/thanksisis.gif"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;www.IsisTheEnchantress.com&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5926346866341577544-8350887744721443924?l=isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/feeds/8350887744721443924/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/10/what-you-thinkwhat-is-video.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/8350887744721443924'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/8350887744721443924'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/10/what-you-thinkwhat-is-video.html' title='what you think=what is? | Video'/><author><name>Isis THE Enchantress</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://img.youtube.com/vi/5_JOdtqqyQI/default.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5926346866341577544.post-9085129767353549581</id><published>2011-10-17T00:34:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2011-10-17T00:34:30.001-04:00</updated><title type='text'>In Pain?</title><content type='html'>"The mind's natural tendency when facing pain&lt;br /&gt;is to attempt to avoid it, but that only&lt;br /&gt;magnifies the pain."&lt;br /&gt;- Psychology today, November/December 2008&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have seen this many times, without &lt;br /&gt;hypnosis.

He happens to find a&lt;br /&gt;person who is able to clone him.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As a result he clones himself two times.  There&lt;br /&gt;is a third clone that comes along, as well, but&lt;br /&gt;I won't go into the details. In addition, if you&lt;br /&gt;are not one for spoilers you may not want to&lt;br /&gt;read the rest of what I am about to write, &lt;br /&gt;although I am not sure I will be spilling too&lt;br /&gt;much.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The reason I mention this film is a couple of&lt;br /&gt;reasons.  At one point in the film the "real"&lt;br /&gt;one of him, Doug, asks a version of himself&lt;br /&gt;if he thought his wife preferred him to the &lt;br /&gt;original.  The copy explains to him that they&lt;br /&gt;are the same person, so how could that be &lt;br /&gt;possible.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In actuality, the versions that come along&lt;br /&gt;rather than being duplicates, seem to skew&lt;br /&gt;toward a certain part of his personality.&lt;br /&gt;While it is still "him," it is many ways&lt;br /&gt;just a piece of him.  It made me think&lt;br /&gt;about how we all have different parts to us.&lt;br /&gt;And these different parts play their role in&lt;br /&gt;the context of the greater whole.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;While we don't have a whole other us who is&lt;br /&gt;that person, it may at times seem as though&lt;br /&gt;we do, and those parts, even when they do&lt;br /&gt;their best, sometimes need the whole of us&lt;br /&gt;to succeed.  There is a part of the movie in&lt;br /&gt;which Doug loses his job because of how the&lt;br /&gt;clones/parts of him react.  Had he actually&lt;br /&gt;have been there, things may not have occurred&lt;br /&gt;the way that they did. The clones also have&lt;br /&gt;a situation with his wife that also has her&lt;br /&gt;leave.  She unknowingly has run ins with the &lt;br /&gt;clones, so she is often left wondering who &lt;br /&gt;he is, and if he knows what he wants - as &lt;br /&gt;there are conflicting things that are said &lt;br /&gt;and done.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In some ways he begins by abandoning parts&lt;br /&gt;of his life only to to discover later that&lt;br /&gt;by embracing the pieces of his life, &lt;br /&gt;complications and all, and by acting on&lt;br /&gt;the things that he had been neglecting, he &lt;br /&gt;can be content with what he has.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Perhaps it is "just" a movie, and life isn't&lt;br /&gt;as "neat" as all that.  However there is &lt;br /&gt;something to be said for acknowledging the&lt;br /&gt;bigger picture and the role that the &lt;br /&gt;individual elements play within it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I often see people struggle with themselves,&lt;br /&gt;and it is difficult for them to make all of&lt;br /&gt;their pieces fit in peace.  Part of making&lt;br /&gt;that happen is to understand the position&lt;br /&gt;of the parts, and what is important to them,&lt;br /&gt;and then work together for the greater whole&lt;br /&gt;of who you are.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Just like any relationship, it may not be&lt;br /&gt;an easy or smooth ride, but it is one that&lt;br /&gt;can be navigated successfully, especially&lt;br /&gt;if the right questions are asked.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Whatever is important to you is likely to be&lt;br /&gt;important to the greater whole of who you&lt;br /&gt;are.  Battles can be fought and won, but&lt;br /&gt;wouldn't it be better to just come to some&lt;br /&gt;sort of agreement that works for the whole&lt;br /&gt;of who you are?  The agreement will save a&lt;br /&gt;lot more than just some energy.  Fights of&lt;br /&gt;any kind are often counterproductive, and &lt;br /&gt;the environment will take you a lot longer&lt;br /&gt;to get to where you are going.  In addition,&lt;br /&gt;the defeated sometimes come back to fight&lt;br /&gt;another day.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Perhaps some friction is helpful.  A pearl&lt;br /&gt;is made from creating friction within a &lt;br /&gt;clam.  Fire can be created from two sticks&lt;br /&gt;being rubbed together.  So I am not saying &lt;br /&gt;that we should do without.  But what I am&lt;br /&gt;saying is that there are sometimes more &lt;br /&gt;things to consider than we are sometimes&lt;br /&gt;aware of and once we become aware, our&lt;br /&gt;field of possibilities expands and we may&lt;br /&gt;find a different way to approach the &lt;br /&gt;dilemmas we face.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;By facing who we are and acknowledging our&lt;br /&gt;various selves instead of trying to hold&lt;br /&gt;them captive in some way, we can help &lt;br /&gt;ourselves embrace them, or help them move on&lt;br /&gt;when the time is right.  After all, every&lt;br /&gt;part of us does have a role to play that &lt;br /&gt;helps us to see something about ourselves&lt;br /&gt;that we can potentially learn from, if we&lt;br /&gt;allow ourselves to.  Perhaps there is &lt;br /&gt;something we need to recognize and by &lt;br /&gt;having a part that calls our attention to&lt;br /&gt;it - even if in an uncomfortable way - we&lt;br /&gt;get to appreciate something that we may &lt;br /&gt;never would have otherwise.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Even though the clones were annoying at &lt;br /&gt;times, in the end Doug seems to recognize&lt;br /&gt;the value of what they have brought to &lt;br /&gt;him, and it would seem that he was able&lt;br /&gt;to move forward because of the seemingly&lt;br /&gt;chaotic help they provided.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the end, all the parts of you are indeed&lt;br /&gt;you, and you can fight them, or you can find&lt;br /&gt;the thing that they are looking to share with&lt;br /&gt;you and in some way absorb it, or get what&lt;br /&gt;you can from it, and let it go.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sometimes it is easier with someone else &lt;br /&gt;involved who can help you give voice to&lt;br /&gt;those things.  If you need help, I might&lt;br /&gt;be able to do just that.  :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Have a great night.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you enjoyed this entry, &lt;br /&gt;(or found it helpful)&lt;br /&gt;please click below:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.niteflirt.com/messages/click_payment_button?id=57294203"&gt;&lt;img src="http://listenandobey.com/pics/thanksisis.gif"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;www.IsisTheEnchantress.com&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5926346866341577544-2052958524655945969?l=isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/feeds/2052958524655945969/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/10/multiplicity-that-is-you.html#comment-form' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/2052958524655945969'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/2052958524655945969'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/10/multiplicity-that-is-you.html' title='The Multiplicity That is You'/><author><name>Isis THE Enchantress</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5926346866341577544.post-1973452525969133221</id><published>2011-10-14T22:40:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2011-10-14T22:40:27.914-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='responsibility'/><title type='text'>On Being Responsible</title><content type='html'>When I sat down with an advisor in high school to&lt;br /&gt;discuss college options, one of the colleges I &lt;br /&gt;was looking at was very expensive.  She asked me&lt;br /&gt;if it would be wise for me to go there, as it &lt;br /&gt;would mean a tremendous amount of debt.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My response was essentially optimistic.  I figured&lt;br /&gt;when I got out of college I would make "college &lt;br /&gt;educated" money and be able to pay off my debts.&lt;br /&gt;I basically was willing to turn a blind eye to the&lt;br /&gt;possible difficulties.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A friend of mine was looking to buy a house.  While&lt;br /&gt;she made good money, it wasn't all that great for&lt;br /&gt;the loan offers she was receiving.  She looked at&lt;br /&gt;some of the lenders in disbelief that they were&lt;br /&gt;willing to loan that much money.  She easily&lt;br /&gt;resisted getting a bigger loan, although for her &lt;br /&gt;it made no sense to get a bigger loan/house.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Someone I saw earlier on a video was talking about&lt;br /&gt;"irresponsible lending," as he felt that he had not&lt;br /&gt;understood all of the implications of the loans &lt;br /&gt;that he had received for college.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These things, in conjunction with someone I was&lt;br /&gt;speaking to recently about a mess that he has &lt;br /&gt;found himself in with a hypnotist because he had&lt;br /&gt;no idea what he was getting himself into, made me &lt;br /&gt;stop and think about responsibility.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have often said "just because I can, doesn't mean&lt;br /&gt;I should" when it comes to what I am capable of &lt;br /&gt;doing hypnotically.  I say that because there is&lt;br /&gt;a part of me that takes responsibility for those&lt;br /&gt;I interact with.  I take that responsibility, in&lt;br /&gt;part, because I am not always sure that they know&lt;br /&gt;what they are getting themselves into.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I wonder if it is partly our ego that gets us into&lt;br /&gt;trouble:  we think we can handle it.  As a result&lt;br /&gt;we do things with reckless abandon, although it&lt;br /&gt;may not seem reckless to us at the time.  In &lt;br /&gt;addition, I should add that maybe sometimes how&lt;br /&gt;we do things in ignorance can be a good thing,&lt;br /&gt;however, I am thinking more of those times that&lt;br /&gt;we may come up short/disgruntled.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;All responsibility could be placed on those who&lt;br /&gt;are making the decision:  Hey, it isn't my fault.&lt;br /&gt;He wanted to do it.  I just gave him what he &lt;br /&gt;asked for.  Now he has to pay the consequences.&lt;br /&gt;Don't blame me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Of course, the person who did the thing could &lt;br /&gt;turn around and say the person/institution did&lt;br /&gt;them wrong because the person/institution was&lt;br /&gt;being irresponsible with their resource and &lt;br /&gt;knowledge.  After all, shouldn't they have told&lt;br /&gt;me not to do it/prohibited it from happening?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I would say that if we had a world in which people&lt;br /&gt;took responsibility for themselves AND others we&lt;br /&gt;would have situations in which a well meaning person&lt;br /&gt;like my counselor would be listened to and advice&lt;br /&gt;based in a place that made some sort of sense might&lt;br /&gt;be heeded.  Not that she would have been right, but&lt;br /&gt;rather my ego wouldn't have been so quick to deflect.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Of course, any situation can be carved out the way&lt;br /&gt;the carver wants to create it.  However, we don't &lt;br /&gt;have to agree with their assessment.  My advisor&lt;br /&gt;could have had an interest in me borrowing, in which&lt;br /&gt;case she could have made a different case.  It would be&lt;br /&gt;wise to learn how best to listen to ourselves and&lt;br /&gt;be guided by the things that work for us.  Sometimes&lt;br /&gt;it may be perfectly logical, and sometimes it may&lt;br /&gt;make no sense at all.  Sometimes we will succeed,&lt;br /&gt;and other times we may fall flat on our faces.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Even a failure can be a good thing, as it could lay&lt;br /&gt;the foundation to a future success.  So maybe the &lt;br /&gt;point isn't to avoid failure - which creates a need&lt;br /&gt;for us to deny responsibility - but rather to stop&lt;br /&gt;being swayed by another's tide, and reacting to our&lt;br /&gt;ego's need to be right all of the time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At the same time, we can share what we know and &lt;br /&gt;hope that if we truly think we have something of &lt;br /&gt;value that people should be listening to that they&lt;br /&gt;will listen, and hope that when they speak, we have&lt;br /&gt;the ears to hear if it would be to our benefit to&lt;br /&gt;listen.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If we are responsible or irresponsible in relation&lt;br /&gt;to others, it will not mean that we are responsible &lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;FOR&lt;i&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt; them.  In the same way that others can be &lt;br /&gt;responsible or irresponsible in relation to us, &lt;br /&gt;they are not responsible &lt;b&gt;FOR&lt;i&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt; us.&lt;br /&gt;(I am speaking about the average adult here, and &lt;br /&gt;not the disabled or young or anyone who is unable&lt;br /&gt;to make decision for themselves and take care of&lt;br /&gt;themselves).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To believe that anyone is responsible for us is to &lt;br /&gt;give ourselves up to another.  That might just be OK,&lt;br /&gt;but at the same time it is best to be careful whose&lt;br /&gt;hands we give ourselves over to whether it be the&lt;br /&gt;baker, the banker or the candlestick maker.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After all, even those with the best of intentions have&lt;br /&gt;moments that are less than stellar.  While it may be&lt;br /&gt;more complicated than most likely want it to be, in&lt;br /&gt;some ways it can't be more simple.  Get what info you&lt;br /&gt;can, be as informed as you can, trust your gut, and&lt;br /&gt;be careful who you give your trust to.  All of those&lt;br /&gt;pieces&lt;i&gt; are in your hands&lt;/i&gt;.  To deny or ignore any of &lt;br /&gt;them and you really only have yourself to blame, if &lt;br /&gt;you feel the need to blame anyone.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What if you do all of those things, and things don't&lt;br /&gt;work out?  Consider that maybe there was a lesson to&lt;br /&gt;be learned, or it was just one of those life moments&lt;br /&gt;that just sucked.  You can blame someone else - the &lt;br /&gt;courts are full of cases like that - but what good&lt;br /&gt;is that going to do, really?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is a tough topic which I don't think I can cover&lt;br /&gt;in totality in just a few paragraphs. One might think &lt;br /&gt;that I never think someone should be held responsible &lt;br /&gt;for their actions.  I would hope that isn't the case, &lt;br /&gt;however, if you happen to think that, please know that &lt;br /&gt;this is more about a discussion that I think is a good &lt;br /&gt;and healthy one to have as we go about living our lives.  &lt;br /&gt;I think it is also one that has been distorted many &lt;br /&gt;times over in many levels of our world and culture.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are no easy answers or quick fixes, but the &lt;br /&gt;the quality of the answers we get is often dictated&lt;br /&gt;by the quality of questions we ask. Questions are &lt;br /&gt;often more important that the answers.  When we &lt;br /&gt;place blame, we often stop asking the questions&lt;br /&gt;that we need to move forward.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Walking around blaming others for things that don't &lt;br /&gt;work out just ain't gonna cut it for the long run.  &lt;br /&gt;It is when people and organizations take &lt;br /&gt;responsibility - instead of place blame - that we &lt;br /&gt;are able to effect change, which can ultimately mean &lt;br /&gt;a better world for us individually and our culture &lt;br /&gt;as a whole.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ok...so that is what I say.  What say ye?  I welcome&lt;br /&gt;your contribution to this important and difficult&lt;br /&gt;conversation.  I have tried my best to communicate a&lt;br /&gt;few thoughts here - which isn't always easy with a &lt;br /&gt;loaded topic like this - and if you have any that &lt;br /&gt;could help me to clarify/amend what I have said, it &lt;br /&gt;would be appreciated.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Have a great weekend.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you enjoyed this entry, &lt;br /&gt;(or found it helpful)&lt;br /&gt;please click below:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.niteflirt.com/messages/click_payment_button?id=57294203"&gt;&lt;img src="http://listenandobey.com/pics/thanksisis.gif"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;www.IsisTheEnchantress.com&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5926346866341577544-1973452525969133221?l=isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/feeds/1973452525969133221/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/10/on-being-responsible.html#comment-form' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/1973452525969133221'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/1973452525969133221'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/10/on-being-responsible.html' title='On Being Responsible'/><author><name>Isis THE Enchantress</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5926346866341577544.post-4347097588645127720</id><published>2011-10-13T19:24:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2011-10-13T19:24:52.268-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='about me'/><title type='text'>Wanted to Share...</title><content type='html'>Someone wrote this to me recently&lt;br /&gt;about his experience with this blog:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"You write beautifully.

While many know about the &lt;br /&gt;western ones, few know much about the&lt;br /&gt;Chinese versions which go by years instead&lt;br /&gt;of months.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;While I don't know what to make of this type&lt;br /&gt;of thing in general, one thing I do know is&lt;br /&gt;that often it gets a bad rap because it is&lt;br /&gt;boiled down to such a generic place it could&lt;br /&gt;seem to apply to almost anyone.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At the same time, it might be interesting &lt;br /&gt;to see where there is a relationship between&lt;br /&gt;what a person's sign says s/he is and what&lt;br /&gt;the person actually is.  I have found on &lt;br /&gt;occasion that it can be quite insightful.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When you recognize something about yourself&lt;br /&gt;you have two choices:  embrace it or change&lt;br /&gt;it.  And the first step in changing it is &lt;br /&gt;to embrace it.  Without being able to &lt;br /&gt;acknowledge a characteristic you are unable&lt;br /&gt;to do anything to alter it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Were you, or someone you know, born in&lt;br /&gt;1901, 1913, 1925, 1937, 1949, &lt;br /&gt;1961, 1973, 1985, 1997, 2009&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If so, you are an Ox in Chinese astrology,&lt;br /&gt;and &lt;a href="http://www.usbridalguide.com/special/chinesehoroscopes/Ox.htm"&gt;one of the key characteristics of an &lt;br /&gt;Ox is stubbornness and inflexibility&lt;/a&gt;.  &lt;br /&gt;Does it fit?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;An Ox may get along with a &lt;a href="http://www.usbridalguide.com/special/chinesehoroscopes/Rabbit.htm"&gt;Rabbit who&lt;br /&gt;tries to play peacemaker&lt;/a&gt; (which is a &lt;br /&gt;good characteristic, but as with most&lt;br /&gt;things, it can sometimes be to his/her &lt;br /&gt;own detriment).  The characteristics&lt;br /&gt;of the personality might be able to &lt;br /&gt;balance the other out.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you are curious at all about your sign,&lt;br /&gt;you can click on one of the text links &lt;br /&gt;above, and you can see detailed descriptions&lt;br /&gt;of the signs and compatibilities (or you can&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.usbridalguide.com/special/chinesehoroscopes/Rat.htm"&gt;just click here&lt;/a&gt;). If you do that, I'd be &lt;br /&gt;curious to know if you feel that it matches &lt;br /&gt;the characteristics of you or someone you &lt;br /&gt;know.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As always, feel free to share publicly or&lt;br /&gt;privately.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Have a great weekend.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you enjoyed this entry, &lt;br /&gt;(or found it helpful)&lt;br /&gt;please click below:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.niteflirt.com/messages/click_payment_button?id=57294203"&gt;&lt;img src="http://listenandobey.com/pics/thanksisis.gif"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;www.IsisTheEnchantress.com&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5926346866341577544-5286031420723877818?l=isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/feeds/5286031420723877818/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/10/stubborn-as-ox.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/5286031420723877818'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/5286031420723877818'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/10/stubborn-as-ox.html' title='Stubborn as an Ox?'/><author><name>Isis THE Enchantress</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-y-7Hfssm3yc/To_I8Eqg3tI/AAAAAAAAAIU/_iVDcqbqSUQ/s72-c/chinese_bull.gif' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5926346866341577544.post-243964511690369517</id><published>2011-10-06T21:51:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2011-10-06T21:51:27.732-04:00</updated><title type='text'>IsisFest Additional Treat</title><content type='html'>Based on my previous &lt;a href="http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/10/possible-play-list.html"&gt;Playlist Posting&lt;/a&gt;,&lt;br /&gt;I decided to do a special &lt;a href="http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/10/trick-or-treat-october-isisfest-is-here.html"&gt;IsisFest&lt;/a&gt; &lt;br /&gt;treat that is outside of the daily game.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For a LIMITED TIME (though midnight&lt;br /&gt;Eastern Time Sunday, 10/9) I am offering&lt;br /&gt;the &lt;a href="http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/10/possible-play-list.html"&gt;four files mentioned&lt;/a&gt;:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I Do What I am Told (MP3) ($19.95)&lt;br /&gt;The Ride (MP3) ($24.95)&lt;br /&gt;More (WMV) ($15)&lt;br /&gt;Twinkle Twinkle Twinkle (MP3) ($26.00)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;for a steal of $45.95!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Buy these files individually, and you'd&lt;br /&gt;pay approximately $86.00.  &lt;i&gt;You're &lt;br /&gt;essentially getting 4 files for the &lt;br /&gt;price of 2.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you have called me and we have spoken&lt;br /&gt;and I have hypnotized you you will want &lt;br /&gt;to get these files to enhance our time&lt;br /&gt;together.

Everything else is secondary." &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;- Steve Jobs&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So much is being said about this man today.  I &lt;br /&gt;never paid much attention to him or his story, &lt;br /&gt;until now, and what an amazing one it is - on&lt;br /&gt;so many levels.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Would he have been the same man with the same&lt;br /&gt;opportunities and met the same people if he&lt;br /&gt;hadn't been adopted?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If he had given up the many times things seemed&lt;br /&gt;to tank, would he have been someone who "could&lt;br /&gt;have been somebody"?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Would he have become all that he was, and &lt;br /&gt;accomplish all that he did if he hadn't been&lt;br /&gt;fired from Apple?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are things about his life that some will&lt;br /&gt;judge negatively and harshly, and some will even&lt;br /&gt;take away the fact that "he" created what he did,&lt;br /&gt;by saying that GOD did.  (Sadly I have heard people&lt;br /&gt;are going to protest his funeral.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When we will realize the fact that while we are&lt;br /&gt;in many ways seemingly different, we are, at the&lt;br /&gt;core, remarkably similar?  When will we realize&lt;br /&gt;that the things we are meant to recognize aren't&lt;br /&gt;the things that we often do?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Inspiration comes from somewhere.  Maybe it is&lt;br /&gt;God.  At the same time, many are inspired, and &lt;br /&gt;do nothing.  Steve Jobs was a man, who it is &lt;br /&gt;said (and I think he may have said), lived &lt;br /&gt;every day like it was his last.*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Many of us live like we will have forever.  We&lt;br /&gt;go through life mindlessly floating along, and &lt;br /&gt;even if inspiration hits, it sits idly by.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Steve Jobs made the most of his human experience,&lt;br /&gt;seeming faults and all, and the actions he took&lt;br /&gt;have changed the landscape of much of our&lt;br /&gt;technological world.  &lt;i&gt;He did that by allowing&lt;br /&gt;himself to question things and how they looked&lt;br /&gt;and felt and how they were approached, molded,&lt;br /&gt;and handled - and then - &lt;b&gt;acted on it&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I would say the celebration of any person is &lt;br /&gt;more about what they contribute to the process&lt;br /&gt;of life than the things they bring to life &lt;br /&gt;itself.  The greatest tribute we can make for&lt;br /&gt;anyone is to honor the lessons that they brought&lt;br /&gt;to our attention through who they were, what&lt;br /&gt;they said, and what they did.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Like the man, or not, he impressed many enough&lt;br /&gt;to affect them in the ways that mattered -&lt;br /&gt;to themselves.  I can think of no greater gift.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;iframe width="390" height="294" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/dX9GTUMh490?rel=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;*EDIT&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://news.yahoo.com/blogs/technology-blog/8-things-didn-t-know-life-steve-jobs-172130955.html"&gt;I just read about how he went about taking his&lt;br /&gt;wife out on their first date.&lt;/a&gt;  It would truly&lt;br /&gt;seem that he lived his life that way in all&lt;br /&gt;regards.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"For all of his single-minded dedication to the company he built from the ground up, Jobs actually skipped a meeting to take Laurene on their first date: "I was in the parking lot with the key in the car, and I thought to myself, 'If this is my last night on earth, would I rather spend it at a business meeting or with this woman?' I ran across the parking lot, asked her if she'd have dinner with me.

Of course&lt;br /&gt;it seems these naked athletes are bent&lt;br /&gt;in just the right way so that nothing&lt;br /&gt;is showing that "shouldn't" be.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I can't help but think about how good we&lt;br /&gt;are at rationalizing things.  I am sure&lt;br /&gt;there are people who will still take issue&lt;br /&gt;with the issue, but somehow for others, it &lt;br /&gt;will be OK because key things are covered up.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Does it seem silly to anyone else, besides&lt;br /&gt;me that we react as we do to naked bodies?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I tend to think that the more we find &lt;br /&gt;something taboo, the more it has a way&lt;br /&gt;of affecting us.  If we would "allow"&lt;br /&gt;people to be naked, we would allow ourselves&lt;br /&gt;to be seen for who we really are.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It occurs to me as I write this that it &lt;br /&gt;fits with the way our culture is:  we &lt;br /&gt;live one way privately and publicly&lt;br /&gt;we cover up parts of ourselves, for fear&lt;br /&gt;of what exposure might mean.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I suspect if we let ourselves reveal who&lt;br /&gt;we truly are, there might just be a collective&lt;br /&gt;sigh of relief (after the initial shock wears&lt;br /&gt;off, that is).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As always, I don't know the answers, but &lt;br /&gt;am asking questions based on my perspective.&lt;br /&gt;Other countries seem to have a healthier&lt;br /&gt;relationship to sex because they have a &lt;br /&gt;healthier relationship to nudity.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One does not necessarily have to be attached&lt;br /&gt;to the other, but because it often is, I&lt;br /&gt;suspect that is a great part of the problem.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'd say that a healthy dynamic is one in&lt;br /&gt;which the individual is able to be who he&lt;br /&gt;or she is without shame, without having to&lt;br /&gt;be something they are not.  If we can have&lt;br /&gt;that, we might just stop concerning ourselves&lt;br /&gt;about what we cover up - or don't.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;It might just be that the conversation around&lt;br /&gt;nudity is a distraction from things that are&lt;br /&gt;much less superficial and much more important.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Just a few of my cents.&lt;br /&gt;Care to share yours?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you enjoyed this entry, &lt;br /&gt;(or found it helpful)&lt;br /&gt;please click below:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.niteflirt.com/messages/click_payment_button?id=57294203"&gt;&lt;img src="http://listenandobey.com/pics/thanksisis.gif"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;www.IsisTheEnchantress.com&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5926346866341577544-1572231754720804479?l=isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/feeds/1572231754720804479/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/10/ever-think-about.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/1572231754720804479'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/1572231754720804479'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/10/ever-think-about.html' title='Ever think about...?'/><author><name>Isis THE Enchantress</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5926346866341577544.post-1171924994534016895</id><published>2011-10-05T14:56:00.003-04:00</published><updated>2011-10-05T14:57:04.138-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='playlist'/><title type='text'>Possible Playlist</title><content type='html'>Sometimes people ask me what &lt;br /&gt;recordings can be coupled &lt;br /&gt;with other recordings.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Today someone told me how&lt;br /&gt;good the following combination&lt;br /&gt;was for him:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Twinkle Twinkle Twinkle (MP3)&lt;br /&gt;The Ride (MP3)&lt;br /&gt;More (Video)&lt;br /&gt;I Do What I am Told (MP3)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Do you have a favorite list/&lt;br /&gt;order of listening?

For starters, so few people were&lt;br /&gt;publicaly doing erotic hypnosis, and making&lt;br /&gt;recordings wasn't nearly as easy as it is now.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In addition, when I began wandering into the&lt;br /&gt;waters, I was making recordings primarily for&lt;br /&gt;those who were hypnotized by me previously&lt;br /&gt;which were more likely to be what was either&lt;br /&gt;requested and/or what sensually fit who I am,&lt;br /&gt;what I am willing to do, and my style.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There never was much in the way of a description,&lt;br /&gt;and because most of my work was sold to those I&lt;br /&gt;had a relationship with, there was (and still is)&lt;br /&gt;an underlying message that the person needs to &lt;br /&gt;ask more questions if he wants to know something&lt;br /&gt;specific and/or if there was an issue upon &lt;br /&gt;listening he would need to let me know ASAP.  &lt;br /&gt;I often would send some free minutes and because&lt;br /&gt;he had been hypnotized by me previously, any&lt;br /&gt;issue would likely be a quick fix.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have never been one to want someone to listen&lt;br /&gt;to a lot of my stuff and never talk to me.  At&lt;br /&gt;the same time I have made more recordings in the&lt;br /&gt;past few years that don't "require" a connnection&lt;br /&gt;first.  I have had mixed feelings about it, and&lt;br /&gt;the conversation today brought them back.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The discussion centered around what is said &lt;br /&gt;about a person's recording - or what isn't.&lt;br /&gt;It would seem that many would like to have &lt;br /&gt;more comprehensive descriptions of recordings&lt;br /&gt;they may listen to, and I actually think it is&lt;br /&gt;great that people are paying attention and &lt;br /&gt;asking for that.  I have often been surprised &lt;br /&gt;by the almost indifferent approach some have &lt;br /&gt;had to hypnosis in any form.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To some degree I haven't been too concerned&lt;br /&gt;about full descriptions because of the nature&lt;br /&gt;of the dynamic I have with most who call me.&lt;br /&gt;However I feel like it is time to do things&lt;br /&gt;a bit differently, and I would like to ask for&lt;br /&gt;your help.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Since you are the recipient of the work that&lt;br /&gt;I do, you know what it is that you want to know&lt;br /&gt;in regard to a recording.  You know what types&lt;br /&gt;of things you want to be said, and the types of&lt;br /&gt;things that would be OK if not spelled out.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For that reason, I would like to ask you to tell&lt;br /&gt;me what those things are.  For those who are &lt;br /&gt;desirous of doing something nice for me, you &lt;br /&gt;can take it a step further; you can write a&lt;br /&gt;description of the recordings that you have &lt;br /&gt;for me, one that would have been helpful to &lt;br /&gt;you when you were looking for a recording to&lt;br /&gt;listen to.  By doing this you will help me and &lt;br /&gt;your fellow trancers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I want to do this because I feel that your&lt;br /&gt;input is important.  In addition, I have zero&lt;br /&gt;desire for someone to be in a situation that&lt;br /&gt;he would rather not be in.  Anything that I&lt;br /&gt;can do to help insure that would be a worthy&lt;br /&gt;pursuit.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have been fortunate to bear witness to many&lt;br /&gt;who have enjoyed me and my recordings over the &lt;br /&gt;years, and I would very much like to keep it &lt;br /&gt;that way.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As you may guess, this is likely to be a rather&lt;br /&gt;large work, and one that will be in process for&lt;br /&gt;a long time to come.  After all, different people&lt;br /&gt;have different ideas of what is important, what is&lt;br /&gt;necessary, and so on.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;While I don't know that every description will be&lt;br /&gt;one that I will take verbatim, I know that whatever&lt;br /&gt;you have to offer will be helpful, and your&lt;br /&gt;contribution would most certainly be appreciated.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the meantime, please ask me about anything you&lt;br /&gt;are uncertain about and/or is important to you&lt;br /&gt;before you indulge in my work.  I have purposely&lt;br /&gt;tried to keep things at a minimum for various&lt;br /&gt;reasons - one of which is to encourage you to&lt;br /&gt;contact and interact with me.  So I encourage you&lt;br /&gt;to take advantage of that.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Some - many that I know of - will want you to &lt;br /&gt;listen to recordings before making contact.  I&lt;br /&gt;am quite the opposite.  If you want to have a&lt;br /&gt;hypnotic relationship with me of some sort, we&lt;br /&gt;should talk - long before you go down any paths&lt;br /&gt;with my work.  Of course I get that some prefer&lt;br /&gt;to have a "preview" of the possibilities, however&lt;br /&gt;I can assure you a recording a session does not&lt;br /&gt;make.  It is NOT going to be a representation&lt;br /&gt;of what to expect with me, even though it is &lt;br /&gt;likely to be consistent with the essence of who&lt;br /&gt;I am.  My recordings are mostly designed to &lt;br /&gt;complement what we do together, and vice versa, &lt;br /&gt;even though they sometimes can stand on their own.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you have something to contribute to this &lt;br /&gt;conversation in a generic way, please add it in&lt;br /&gt;the comment section below.  If you would like to&lt;br /&gt;contribute to things in a greater way, please&lt;br /&gt;talk to me about it.  I welcome your input.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Have a great night!&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;www.IsisTheEnchantress.com&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5926346866341577544-2437482036893647082?l=isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/feeds/2437482036893647082/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/10/recording-descriptions-can-you-help.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/2437482036893647082'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/2437482036893647082'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/10/recording-descriptions-can-you-help.html' title='Recording Descriptions:  Can You Help?'/><author><name>Isis THE Enchantress</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5926346866341577544.post-2514636958666851472</id><published>2011-10-03T14:20:00.002-04:00</published><updated>2011-10-03T14:20:57.036-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='humor'/><title type='text'>Humor(?)</title><content type='html'>I just saw this...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"I want to go down on you &lt;br /&gt;and make you extremely happy.&lt;br /&gt;Then I want to come back up&lt;br /&gt;slowly and fuck you real &lt;br /&gt;good and hard.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yours truly,&lt;br /&gt;gas prices!"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yeah, baby!&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;www.IsisTheEnchantress.com&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5926346866341577544-2514636958666851472?l=isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/feeds/2514636958666851472/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/10/humor.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/2514636958666851472'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/2514636958666851472'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/10/humor.html' title='Humor(?)'/><author><name>Isis THE Enchantress</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5926346866341577544.post-1324440307814579254</id><published>2011-10-02T20:32:00.004-04:00</published><updated>2011-10-02T20:56:42.940-04:00</updated><title type='text'>How far is too far?</title><content type='html'>At the core of hypnosis done by some there is something that happens that abolishes something - or everything - of the self to be replaced by what another desires.  For the most part - and more often than not - if you are OK with it, it is OK.  But as I always say, if you are uncertain you owe it to yourself to re/consider what you pursue.  Going along with the tide is easy the longer and stronger the tide.  If you are swept away you better be damn sure it is what you want, otherwise you may wind up paying a price that you can't afford.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(And don't ask me what it is, as there is no way to know what will happen and what will be acceptable or not.  The best you can do is pay attention to where and how you are at the moment, and figure out what is best based on what you currently know and recognize.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You need to be responsible to yourself, as no one else can know what you need or be able to plan for every possible contingency, and having a "back up plan" of some sort would be advisable.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Is it ever "too" late to stop or change something?  I could decide to drive to California right now and during the trip think I may want to come back to the east coast.  I could be in the middle of PA and think about it, but keep heading west.  I could be in Indiana, and think about it more and keep heading west.  I could be in Illinois, and still think about it, and still head west.  The farther west I get, the longer it will take me to get back east, should I choose to go back.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I will always have the option of turning around, even after I get to the west coast, but the thing is is that once I get there, I might just forget about the east coast and never return.  I might not miss a thing, not realizing what I gave up.  I could even forget what wonderful things and people I left on the east coast as I focused on what I found on the west coast.  I may have even thought that I wasn't even leaving anything on the east coast, downplaying and minimizing the importance of what was.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I can likely be OK, if something or someone tells me to be, and tells me what to focus on, but if it affects others that know me, it might be a very sad thing for them.  There might also be a part of me that wishes for what once was, but it could be buried so far deep, it could seem like a long ago dream that makes no sense in my current reality so I am unsure or unable to reconcile what I feel without someone's help and perspective.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I might also not have the financial means for a return so to do it, I will really have to want it, and be willing to do whatever it takes to get there.  It might mean walking, it might mean sleeping outdoors, it might mean dangerous or difficult conditions that might, at times, seem impossible.  It might seem so difficult, I may even want to give up, or give in.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The problem is that if I wound up in the middle of the country and felt the need to give up, I will no longer be in the west or the east coast, and everything that I knew would be no where near me which would create a whole other difficult scenario.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That is why we often stay where we are comfortable, to avoid the discomfort of the unknown, and even in our comfort zone we may be uncomfortable, but the familiarity gives us comfort, so we aren't necessarily willing to leave.  We'd rather the discomfort we know to the discomfort we don't.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What happens in life is all about the choices we make moment to moment.  As I always say, choose wisely.  No one can take care of you the way you need to be taken care of, even if there is an illusion of that for a time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How do you know when you've gone too far?  &lt;br /&gt;Too far for what?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you enjoyed this entry, &lt;br /&gt;(or found it helpful)&lt;br /&gt;please click below:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.niteflirt.com/messages/click_payment_button?id=57294203"&gt;&lt;img src="http://listenandobey.com/pics/thanksisis.gif"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;www.IsisTheEnchantress.com&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5926346866341577544-1324440307814579254?l=isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/feeds/1324440307814579254/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/10/how-far-is-too-far.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/1324440307814579254'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/1324440307814579254'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/10/how-far-is-too-far.html' title='How far is too far?'/><author><name>Isis THE Enchantress</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5926346866341577544.post-6955449826746368452</id><published>2011-10-02T16:40:00.004-04:00</published><updated>2011-10-02T16:44:08.696-04:00</updated><title type='text'>Trick or Treat</title><content type='html'>I am very excited to see people enjoying the&lt;br /&gt;results of my labors.  I enjoyed putting this&lt;br /&gt;event together, and now it's your turn to&lt;br /&gt;enjoy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here are a few things that people have said &lt;br /&gt;so far,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Your legs are beautiful and the never fail to captivate. Heck, I'm not even a great fan of fishnet stockings but on you they just really pull me in. I had an image of being trapped and held against your thigh in the nets..."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"...If you aren't playing the Trick Or Treat game, you're REALLY missing out! The first treat alone was worth so much more than the price of admission for me!"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"You look amazing in your new photos. I can't even begin to give you the compliments that you deserve, they are incredible."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Isis you are a genius...genius because of the blending of all your talents, and i would say clever too."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"The first treat was absolutely gorgeous!!"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For the record, the "first treat" for that person&lt;br /&gt;isn't the same as it is for another person.  Each&lt;br /&gt;person gets their own treat for the day.  There &lt;br /&gt;may be times some will get the same one, after all&lt;br /&gt;it is picked out of a "hat" (a pumpkin).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In addition, I have decided to add an extra treat&lt;br /&gt;here and there, but you'll have to play to have&lt;br /&gt;access to it.  As they say, "you have to be in it&lt;br /&gt;to win it."  Hint:  The first time this will appear&lt;br /&gt;in the game is a day that has to do with the night&lt;br /&gt;and your unconscious self.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Have a wonderful week and &lt;a href="http://listenandobey.com/trickortreat.html"&gt;play here&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/10/trick-or-treat-october-isisfest-is-here.html"&gt;see more about the game here&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Isis&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;www.IsisTheEnchantress.com&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5926346866341577544-6955449826746368452?l=isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/feeds/6955449826746368452/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/10/trick-or-treat.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/6955449826746368452'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/6955449826746368452'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/10/trick-or-treat.html' title='Trick or Treat'/><author><name>Isis THE Enchantress</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5926346866341577544.post-3327690609344305652</id><published>2011-10-01T00:01:00.005-04:00</published><updated>2011-10-11T17:42:19.690-04:00</updated><title type='text'>Trick or Treat:  October IsisFest is Here!</title><content type='html'>The Event is Here!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you click the image below, it will take&lt;br /&gt;you to the page where you can play.

We learn a lot about the&lt;br /&gt;superficial graces.  It is, of course,&lt;br /&gt;good to learn how to be polite, and&lt;br /&gt;play together, and share, but the one&lt;br /&gt;thing that really seems to be lacking&lt;br /&gt;is how to truly implement it into a&lt;br /&gt;world.  We learn how to say the things&lt;br /&gt;we meed to say to pass the grade or &lt;br /&gt;the test.  We learn how to get by. We&lt;br /&gt;learn how to deny ourselves in the&lt;br /&gt;process of getting along, rather than&lt;br /&gt;bolstering ourselves in a way that &lt;br /&gt;is supportive of ourselves and others.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Of course, it is not all school's "fault."&lt;br /&gt;I'd rather even prefer to look at it less&lt;br /&gt;in a fault vein and more in one that takes&lt;br /&gt;other options and questions into consideration.&lt;br /&gt;The "hypnosis" of school has been around a&lt;br /&gt;long time, and I doubt that many see the forest&lt;br /&gt;for the trees in this regard.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It just leaves us opportunities as adults&lt;br /&gt;to discover the things we have never been&lt;br /&gt;taught, or told.  Maybe if enough adults&lt;br /&gt;become aware and question what is told,&lt;br /&gt;maybe things - and our world - will change.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Wouldn't that be something?

type='text'>Want vs Right</title><content type='html'>I just watched Something Borrowed.  In it, there is a line about essentially forgetting about what you want, in favor of what is "right."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It often seems that "right" and "want" are often at odds with one another, and whenever that happens, the version of "right" that is referred to is one that often isn't, ironically, right for the person involved.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have to wonder if there is some underlying hypnosis in our culture that basically tells us when in doubt about what to do with what we want, we "should" compromise ourselves in the process.  Of course, it is worded differently, "don't be so selfish," "think of others," often words to guilt one into doing something different than what one's own heart says, as well as often creating actions that are more harmful to those we are trying to protect, than if we allowed ourselves to be ourselves.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is also an underlying message about not speaking up for what one wants, not speaking up for one's feelings, that is much more overt.  But it is all one in the same.  When we don't speak up for ourselves, we lose a piece of ourselves, as well as our own inner peace.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Being unable to say what we feel and mean is a form of hypnosis.  How we communicate, or fail to communicate, has been ingrained within us by our parents, family, friends, society.  I know it isn't easy to say what is really there, as I haven't always been able to be so expressive.  Sometimes it hurts to say things that go unreciprocated, but I think it might just hurt more when being forced to stifle oneself because of fears or what others may say, do, or think.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I saw a preview for the movie 50/50.  In it, the main character gets diagnosed with cancer.  His friend convinces him that telling a woman that he has cancer is a great pick up line.  When he does it it doesn't go over well, at all.  But he just keeps going.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is not to say we should just "dump" things on others, and run, but rather, if we are able to just allow ourselves to say what is so for us in the moment we can have the freedom to be ourselves, and just keep going.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Consider that we are more often trapped by the things we don't say than by the things we do.  If this feels like you, remember I haven't always been like this, so I understand.  If you want to make a change, you can, and if you think I could help, just ask!   It isn't easy, but it is doable.  The  more you do it, the easier it will become.  You will also see how amazingly powerful it feels.  As odd as it may sound, good communication can be an aphrodisiac!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;All the best to you in this adventure called life,&lt;br /&gt;Isis&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;iframe width="390" height="228" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/4qlMqqc7YdE" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;iframe width="390" height="228" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/pVObFYOU9rE" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you enjoyed this entry, &lt;br /&gt;(or found it helpful)&lt;br /&gt;please click below:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.niteflirt.com/messages/click_payment_button?id=57294203"&gt;&lt;img src="http://listenandobey.com/pics/thanksisis.gif"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;www.IsisTheEnchantress.com&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5926346866341577544-8251097803377637855?l=isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/feeds/8251097803377637855/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/09/want-vs-right.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/8251097803377637855'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/8251097803377637855'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/09/want-vs-right.html' title='Want vs Right'/><author><name>Isis THE Enchantress</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://img.youtube.com/vi/4qlMqqc7YdE/default.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5926346866341577544.post-9185095159325234268</id><published>2011-09-27T13:41:00.001-04:00</published><updated>2011-09-27T13:41:00.672-04:00</updated><title type='text'>Have you Noticed?</title><content type='html'>the &lt;a href="http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/07/mystery-file.html"&gt;Mystery File&lt;/a&gt; yet?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Don't know what I am &lt;br /&gt;referring to?  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/07/mystery-file.html"&gt;Click Here.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;www.IsisTheEnchantress.com&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5926346866341577544-9185095159325234268?l=isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/feeds/9185095159325234268/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/09/have-you-noticed_27.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/9185095159325234268'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/9185095159325234268'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/09/have-you-noticed_27.html' title='Have you Noticed?'/><author><name>Isis THE Enchantress</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5926346866341577544.post-1190546395676347402</id><published>2011-09-26T15:30:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2011-09-26T15:30:00.553-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='video'/><title type='text'>(Ain't) Missing You | Video</title><content type='html'>I came across this video today as I had this&lt;br /&gt;strong feeling of missing someone.  It is&lt;br /&gt;interesting to me how we do a dance with the&lt;br /&gt;feelings we have in life.  The singer is &lt;br /&gt;definitely missing someone, but definitely&lt;br /&gt;doesn't want to be.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is like any conflicting hypnotic suggestion -&lt;br /&gt;feeling one way, but being another.  Life is&lt;br /&gt;very hypnotic, and so is the way we deal with it,&lt;br /&gt;and some things are harder to "break."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is an expression that what you resists, &lt;br /&gt;persists.  So trying not to miss someone will &lt;br /&gt;only make you miss them more.  It's also&lt;br /&gt;interesting how the song is written..."missing&lt;br /&gt;you" echoing amidst "ain't missing you."  The&lt;br /&gt;thing we don't have resides in a way in its&lt;br /&gt;perceived lack.  The best you can do is to &lt;br /&gt;find something else to focus on, and go about &lt;br /&gt;your day - provided that there isn't anything&lt;br /&gt;else you can do.   It isn't easy, but at least &lt;br /&gt;it is a start.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And for me part of acknowledging what I am &lt;br /&gt;feeling is to share this with you.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Have a great week...only 5 days til October 1st,&lt;br /&gt;and IsisFest...I have almost&lt;br /&gt;20 *NEW* pics that are awaiting next month.&lt;br /&gt;Are you ready, yet?  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;iframe width="390" height="294" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/k9e157Ner90" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you enjoyed this entry, &lt;br /&gt;(or found it helpful)&lt;br /&gt;please click below:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.niteflirt.com/messages/click_payment_button?id=57294203"&gt;&lt;img src="http://listenandobey.com/pics/thanksisis.gif"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;www.IsisTheEnchantress.com&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5926346866341577544-1190546395676347402?l=isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/feeds/1190546395676347402/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/09/aint-missing-you-video.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/1190546395676347402'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/1190546395676347402'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/09/aint-missing-you-video.html' title='(Ain&apos;t) Missing You | Video'/><author><name>Isis THE Enchantress</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://img.youtube.com/vi/k9e157Ner90/default.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5926346866341577544.post-7433796583907072889</id><published>2011-09-25T14:20:00.002-04:00</published><updated>2011-09-26T15:15:38.730-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='isis video'/><title type='text'>Come Inside My World | Video</title><content type='html'>&lt;center&gt;&lt;video width="320" height="240" controls="controls"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;object data="http://listenandobey.com/Movies/trickortreat2.wmv" width="320" height="240"&gt; &lt;embed src="http://listenandobey.com/Movies/trickortreat2.wmv" width="320" height="240"&gt; Your browser does not support video &lt;/object&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/video&gt; &lt;br /&gt;If the above does not play,&lt;br /&gt;please click below to view.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://listenandobey.com/Movies/trickortreat2.wmv"&gt;Click to Play&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is a video I had on YouTube once upon a time.&lt;br /&gt;However since it features cleavage, I was concerned&lt;br /&gt;about what might happen with it and my account, if&lt;br /&gt;reported.

One type of person might&lt;br /&gt;be someone you'd likely see in a stage show.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;The answer to this question has much to do&lt;br /&gt;with the context of the question as well&lt;br /&gt;as the desired framework for the answer.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have learned through doing this work that&lt;br /&gt;there is much that I can manipulate, given&lt;br /&gt;the opportunity to do so.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This, then, leads to the question about&lt;br /&gt;whether or not you can do something &lt;br /&gt;"against your will."  I have a couple of&lt;br /&gt;blog entries on this topic, as well.  &lt;br /&gt;If you are interested, you can view them&lt;br /&gt;in the archives.  Feel free to ask me what&lt;br /&gt;I think, as well.

Perhaps some are more than&lt;br /&gt;appreciative of the kind words people say,&lt;br /&gt;myself being among them, however I thought I &lt;br /&gt;might make a few suggestions that will help you &lt;br /&gt;leave more effective feedback for your intended.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;*if you want to use words like "the best," &lt;br /&gt;it would carry more weight if you said something&lt;br /&gt;like "the best in my experience."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;*it is good to focus on what you think the &lt;br /&gt;person has done well, "Isis the Enchantress &lt;br /&gt;gave me the most sensual and pleasurable&lt;br /&gt;experience of my life," instead of "Isis made&lt;br /&gt;me feel great!"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;*it is good to be specific about the experience,&lt;br /&gt;"She had me going in and out of trance, and&lt;br /&gt;I couldn't believe what was happening to me &lt;br /&gt;when I was awake;  I was harder than I have&lt;br /&gt;ever been in my life," instead of "I came so&lt;br /&gt;hard!"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Perhaps you are seeing a trend here.  So many&lt;br /&gt;times the things people casually say to me&lt;br /&gt;would make the best feedback.  So the next&lt;br /&gt;time you sit down to say something about your&lt;br /&gt;experience, just think about what you have &lt;br /&gt;said, or would say, to your hypnotist. You&lt;br /&gt;will likely find it much easier to write &lt;br /&gt;something, as well as something that will &lt;br /&gt;truly be of value to others searching for &lt;br /&gt;a trance just like the one you describe.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ultimately, the more able you are to &lt;br /&gt;express the facets of your session, &lt;br /&gt;the more able your feedback will have &lt;br /&gt;the intended result.  And, better yet, &lt;br /&gt;it may even make leaving feedback  &lt;br /&gt;easier and more pleasurable.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Does this help?  Can you think of other things&lt;br /&gt;that might be helpful to you as someone who&lt;br /&gt;is seeking trance?

When I hear things like this,&lt;br /&gt;it makes me wonder if we're on the "right" track.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Of course, "right" is relative, so a case can be&lt;br /&gt;made for anything.  A case can be made that anything&lt;br /&gt;can be a good thing for us - whether we like it, or&lt;br /&gt;not, or agree with it, or not.  However before I&lt;br /&gt;get too far off the path, let me tell you why I &lt;br /&gt;mention this story today.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Perhaps you've heard of &lt;a href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2011/sep/22/troy-davis-execution-death-penalty?newsfeed=true"&gt;Troy Davis&lt;/a&gt;?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He was put to death last night for his conviction&lt;br /&gt;regarding the killing of a police officer.  In&lt;br /&gt;reading the details of the case as presented, it&lt;br /&gt;would seem that there was sizeable doubt that he&lt;br /&gt;was, indeed, the one who killed Officer MacPhail.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Troy's case went all the way to the Supreme Court&lt;br /&gt;which, I heard, said that a case had to be made&lt;br /&gt;to prove Troy was not guilty for them to do &lt;br /&gt;whatever they could have to stop the execution.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One of the key things that I had read at one &lt;br /&gt;point was that there were some witnesses who&lt;br /&gt;said they were coerced into lying at the trial.&lt;br /&gt;It turned out that 7 of 9 witnesses ultimately&lt;br /&gt;altered their testimony after Troy's trial.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If there was a way to tell if a person was &lt;br /&gt;lying, a situation in which an innocent man&lt;br /&gt;is convicted of a crime might not occur.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Of course, I have no way of knowing if Troy&lt;br /&gt;was innocent, or not.  But it seems to me that&lt;br /&gt;the only thing that said he was guilty was his&lt;br /&gt;trial itself.  And since we all know there have&lt;br /&gt;been times in which that has been a faulty process,&lt;br /&gt;might we have given this man more time to see&lt;br /&gt;what else might be found out or considered?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When I look at how mankind can be, it sure &lt;br /&gt;doesn't seem like "kind" is a part of it.&lt;br /&gt;There seem to be so many variables that make&lt;br /&gt;us who we are, and while some are nuisances,&lt;br /&gt;there are others that are deadly.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is always my desire to look at things in as&lt;br /&gt;affirming way as possible, but realize that there&lt;br /&gt;will always be gray areas.  I tend to think it is&lt;br /&gt;how we deal with the gray areas that will tell&lt;br /&gt;us who we really are.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What do you think?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you enjoyed this entry, &lt;br /&gt;(or found it helpful)&lt;br /&gt;please click below:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.niteflirt.com/messages/click_payment_button?id=57294203"&gt;&lt;img src="http://listenandobey.com/pics/thanksisis.gif"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;www.IsisTheEnchantress.com&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5926346866341577544-8471599914889039090?l=isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/feeds/8471599914889039090/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/09/living-in-gray.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/8471599914889039090'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/8471599914889039090'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/09/living-in-gray.html' title='Living in the Gray'/><author><name>Isis THE Enchantress</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5926346866341577544.post-533313513465205020</id><published>2011-09-19T13:40:00.001-04:00</published><updated>2011-09-19T13:40:00.130-04:00</updated><title type='text'>Have you Noticed?</title><content type='html'>the &lt;a href="http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/07/mystery-file.html"&gt;Mystery File&lt;/a&gt; yet?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Don't know what I am &lt;br /&gt;referring to?  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/07/mystery-file.html"&gt;Click Here.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;www.IsisTheEnchantress.com&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5926346866341577544-533313513465205020?l=isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/feeds/533313513465205020/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/09/have-you-noticed_19.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/533313513465205020'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5926346866341577544/posts/default/533313513465205020'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://isis-the-enchantress.blogspot.com/2011/09/have-you-noticed_19.html' title='Have you Noticed?'/><author><name>Isis THE Enchantress</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5926346866341577544.post-6244735503901142154</id><published>2011-09-18T22:03:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2011-09-18T22:03:50.899-04:00</updated><title type='text'>I've been thinking...</title><content type='html'>about what I want to do for October.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The skeleton is there.

Excitement is one&lt;br /&gt;thing, but "Danger Ahead" &lt;br /&gt;is quite the other.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;are you using the virtual &lt;br /&gt;situation as an escape from&lt;br /&gt;a real life one?  If so, you&lt;br /&gt;might want to consider waiting&lt;br /&gt;until things are better in real&lt;br /&gt;life, or make sure that the &lt;br /&gt;person you involve yourself &lt;br /&gt;with doesn't make things worse,&lt;br /&gt;or create a whole new problem&lt;br /&gt;for you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These types of questions actually fit&lt;br /&gt;any dynamic you have in the erotic&lt;br /&gt;hypnosis world, the phone sex world,&lt;br /&gt;the real world.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;While some of these things may seem&lt;br /&gt;extreme, or unlikely, you might be&lt;br /&gt;surprised at how they could happen.&lt;br /&gt;It is also not to say that all things&lt;br /&gt;that happen are maliciously intentional.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Being human certainly does have a&lt;br /&gt;way of mixing things up, and &lt;br /&gt;complicating them with unexpected&lt;br /&gt;events.  That is why it is good to&lt;br /&gt;realize that much of what we do and &lt;br /&gt;who we are has to do with hypnotic &lt;br /&gt;types of events that shape who we &lt;br /&gt;become.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The only way to really be OK is&lt;br /&gt;to know these answers long before&lt;br /&gt;you ever need to know.  They will&lt;br /&gt;be a way to guide your interactions&lt;br /&gt;with those you choose to interact&lt;br /&gt;with.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have known of cases where mindsets&lt;br /&gt;have been changed, and the person &lt;br /&gt;seems to be quite happy, but I am&lt;br /&gt;not always convinced that they truly&lt;br /&gt;are - &lt;i&gt;or just saying they are.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Life is a lot like that.  We never&lt;br /&gt;quite know what our reality is, as&lt;br /&gt;it can be so mutable. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;However you choose to proceed is&lt;br /&gt;obviously up to you. My suggestion&lt;br /&gt;would be to never do it with a&lt;br /&gt;cavalier, careless "what the heck?"&lt;br /&gt;kind of attitude.  You might wake&lt;br /&gt;up with the equivalent of a nasty&lt;br /&gt;hangover that is difficult to shake.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Any other questions you ask yourself&lt;br /&gt;that I have missed?
