    Gabriela Marie Milton: «So here I am, armed with enthusiasm, ready to help everyone around me sparkle like diamonds in the sun».

    I always ask our interviewee to tell us about an establishment (cafeteria or bar) that she likes in the city where she lives. Gabriela Marie Milton Ah, my favorite bar in the city? Well, here’s the twist: I don’t like any bars! I’m more of a “no-go-to-bars” kind of person.…

    The ethereal panacea by Susana Cabaço

    Silence is like an ethereal panacea that smoothly nurtures and heals your personal fields. It brings you closer to your core self, the infinite source of light and life within. In this powered-by-silence soul proximity, there’s self-replenishment, and in your self-fullness that which is blocking your innate luminance is naturally…

  • Letter from Istanbul By John RC Potter

    Letter from Istanbul By John RC Potter

    “Allahu akbar!” The repeated Arabic call to prayer that issues from the nearby mosque (‘cami’ in Turkish, ‘masjid’ in Arabic) is the first sound that I hear very early each pre-dawn morning.

    And Then We Grew Closer To Talk Of Separation by Paul Tristram

    I am done gorgingupon the ‘auras’ of Nephilim… I fancya simpler feast… of ‘hearts’and ‘too-good-to-be-true’broken promises. It’s just ‘money’… but, it paves the way,to sticky nectarines,and candle-flame evenings… comfortable,in the (danger) knowledge… that we’resimply stealing ‘honey’from the bees… rather than joining them.Snap your fingers again… and we’ll paythe servants with…
