The Importance of Being Dog-like: Being Faithful and Trusting Others Being faithful and trusting others is not always a human trait, but is certainly the domain of dogs. As an intuitive coach, I know that being present and staying in the moment is a key for many to personal success. I've done my best to stay present, but was humbled by someone during a personal coaching session one day - a dog I'll call Sparky. My client asked for information about Sparky who was ill and was going to be "put to sleep" soon. She was concerned about the feelings of the dog concerning the procedure. Would this emotionally hurt the dog? Would he understand their decision? Would the euthanasia interfere with Sparky's karma? During the session I was able to connect with Sparky and learned some remarkable lessons about life as a dog. First of all, I looked at Sparky and saw a lovely, sweet and caring being. His mission in life (which may be similar to all dogs with human masters) was loving, being faithful and trusting others, particularly his masters. And Sparky was a master at this. He loved my client unconditionally and completely. His happiness was replete when she was happy. His world...more

Obama launches bid for re-election With a short video on BarackObama.com, the sitting president of the United States has launched his bid for re-election.Using what apparently will be one of his campaign slogans, "It begins with us," the campaign has told supporters that the kickoff of the campaign has started and that means the race for contributions is on.The familiar-looking blue "O" over red and white stripes is back again for 2012. And at the bottom of the website, the candidates' names are clearly identified: OBAMA-BIDEN — for Vice President Joe Biden.Shortly afterward, Obama sent an e-mail to supporters to say he will also file papers Monday with the Federal Election Commission."We've always known that lasting change wouldn't come quickly or easily. It never does. But as my administration and folks across the country fight to protect the progress we've made — and make more — we also need to begin mobilizing for 2012, long before the time comes for me to begin campaigning in earnest," Obama said in his e-mail message. He is expected to host his first re-election fundraiser in Chicago on April 14, according to the sources. The president is making his...more
