Star Wars the POSITIVE Effect !
In many ways the Star War movies are simply a reflection of everyday life on planet Earth. Battles with inner conflict, jealousy, love, hate, passion, desire, laughter, drama, action, achieving goals, villains, friendship, success and failure. Although we watch these movies for escapism, they also teach us about ourselves and the world around us. I'm not suggesting that George Lucas is our extreme life or spiritual teacher but he has managed to get all the elements of life rolled into his movies. We all aspire to be happier but it's not always as simply as smiling and our problems disappear, life is full of constant challenges and changing events. It's how we face up to our daily life challenges that will eventually determine our happiness or lack of it. Face every challenge the best you can with a positive mental attitude, not always easy, I agree, however, you are the only one who determines your attitude, be it Positive or Negative. People and circumstances around you will be trying to influence how you feel BUT ONLY YOU DECIDE HOW YOU THINK! So the next alien invasion or Darth Vader you run into, just remember, your Thinking is in your hands, so think with a positive attitude and even if you don't win this battle, you'll end up winning the war and live a happier life?may the force be with you!!!!

Life, The Greatest Ride of All Life is the greatest roller coaster ride we will ever take. The ups and downs, the unexpected changes, the twists and turns, are all a part of living.

The problems of life do not go away magically. We have to consciously work on making our lives more positive and joyful. Fearing the Future: I am what I Fear! When we were children, we were fearless. We would stick our hands in the fire, chew on the beetle bugs, and eat that dirt. But, over time, we learned those things that we should not do through experience and from "parental voices" --- those baseless fears passed down through the generations. Later in life, we learned that fire burns, beetle bugs are "yucky" and dirt is not nutritious. But, we also learned all of the things that our parents learned, including their fears and phobias, and integrated those lessons into our own "belief systems."

We hear a lot these days about accepting responsibility for our actions and it is about time we did.

She states: "The main goal of terrorism is 'intentional trauma' to the living.
