MK & A Olsen: A Fashion Empire →
Maybe, but you can’t help wondering how this particular fashion success story was written by two former child stars, and not by a designer with years of experience. And that may be the explanation: the Olsen sisters don’t seem to acknowledge the conventional barriers to success, beginning with their famous name. After all, they detached their names from the brand. “The customer who buys the...

Fun Fact: I swabbed Stephen Colbert's cheek to...
A few years ago, when I was working as Colbert’s assistant, he had his DNA tested for part of the National Geographic’s DNA project. It’s a true story that I swabbed his cheek to get the sample. I was also wearing an Optimus Prime mask while doing that. We had alot of laughs on that set.
As part of its recent upfront strategy, National Geographic Channel took DNA samples from...

Seeing Beyond Fearful Delusions
One of humanity’s biggest fears is losing what we have. It is healthy when fear of loss helps us take steps to protect what we have worked hard to attain, but it is unhealthy to continue to fear something we can do nothing about. We need to remember that focusing our energy on fear can actually create what scares us, and holding tightly to what we have keeps us...

– A fabulous excerpt from Sam’s For Sue and Pascal (via joshruben) Josh is right, this IS a fabulous excerpt. But the rest of what Sam wrote for them is equally amazing and completely beautiful.
Love Tarot
Be aware that the fear or sorrow hanging over your head could be taking its toll on your love life or relationship. If this torment is recurring, realize that it isn’t about what you have done to deserve this, but more about the natural consequences of something you have been unable to see clearly until now. This is about that moment of painful yet necessary realization. You know you...

Found: A Swedish Essay by Ellen Key Titled "The...
“In the essay, Key analyzes the female characters created by Henrik Ibsen, whose 1879 play A Doll’s House shook the theatrical world when its lead character, Nora, departed her marriage rather than continue to be treated by her husband as a compliant doll. Key notes that the playwright took pleasure in portraying the precise moment when his women characters, feeling confined by their...

When your choices are your own, you will be more likely to accept and be satisfied with the outcome of those choices. Your decisions will be a pure reflection of your desires, your creativity, your awareness, and your power. Since you understand that you must live with and take responsibility for your decisions, you will likely exercise great care when coming to conclusions. As you learn to make...

A Brief Essay on Love and Enlightenment
(Given to me by Amanda)
The experience of love in everything is a reality; it is just that we have forgotten that reality. As you expand your consciousness and new realizations arise, you will see that your heart is continuously yearning for more and more love-consciousness. Ultimately, it yearns to sit in union. People often think that to presume or even strive for enlightenment would be...
Love Tarot
The Eight of Swords card suggests that you might have to put yourself out there, set your boundaries or prove yourself. Be willing to sacrifice your pride or take a risk in order to escape unhealthy circumstances. You may not see an immediate way out and may claim that your hands are tied in order to avoid accountability, but absolving yourself of responsibility for your situation may leave you...
