Company Spotlight: Ilka Flood
I'm a professional network marketer and been in the industry for over eight years. For the past 16 months I have been with Tahitian Noni International. You may have heard of it. If not, it's a company that markets a fruit juice made from the noni fruit from the French Polynesian Islands. The company is currently earning over $45 million dollars a month.

Author Showcase: J. Allen Wilson
I didn't know him, but Allen wrote to congratulate me on my latest book, and it was so obvious that his was a big, giving heart. I checked out his poetry & found a double talent when I saw that he was also an artist. --Editor
Writing for me started at a very early age, I was about nine years old when I first realized that the world of my imagination could easily be shared with others by simply writing down my thoughts on paper. After that, it then took me nearly four decades to conclude that I had desired all along to share my writings on a much broader scale, like in book form or public speaking. Therefore, I began to look into ways of making it a tangible reality.

Make Your Event Memorable, Keith Smith
The DJ was wondering why there was no dancing or mingling amongst the audience. Everyone was just standing around holding their drinks and eating the hors d'oeuvres.
Imagine a supposedly festive company party turning out to be a dud. Who does the company blame?
Time To Play, Deborah Carraro
One of the biggest challenges faced by solo-entrepreneurs is scheduling personal time - time away from the business. It's particularly challenging when you're first starting your business. Your natural impulse is to throw everything you have into your business - time, money, energy - but that may not be the wisest course of action.
WHAT DO YOU FEED YOUR MIND?, Catherine Pulsifer
On what do you feed your mind?
One of my major concerns today is that a lot of people feed their mind with television. We increasingly judge our success and personal worth by television stories - stories of the rich and famous, those who have beauty and the perfect body, those who do little work and still succeed. Yet, this is not reality.
THIS WEEK'S THEMATIC SELECTION
Editor's Note:
This Week's Theme: " Our Search For Spirituality . . . In Its Many Forms"
Wisdom, Laurent Grenier
What is wisdom? But first, what are the conditions that render it desirable, if not necessary, and what is its essential purpose?
Life is a desire to live, and better still a desire to live happily. As we strive to satisfy this desire, we encounter obstacles that complicate or frustrate our efforts. This complication or frustration amounts to suffering because it stands in the way of satisfaction.
Four Powerful Pathways into the Light and Sound, Judith Pennington
The easiest, most exciting adventure in consciousness follows the lamplit guidance of the still, small voice in each of us. In the quiet of meditation, we listen to our souls and hear what is most needed in our lives and how best to obtain it. This wise, kindly voice never fails us and never falters.
There is no substitute for inner listening, as we grow into the soul voice which becomes our own. But in our travels, some or all of these four harmonic pathways open to enhance our joy and draw us into the Oneness.
21st Century Goddess, Charlene Ryan
I have been interested in, and have studied, goddesses of several cultures for many years. Each goddess expressing individual, unique, and powerful aspects of her personality. She, the goddess in her own way etched out her place in the Universe. I wanted to stand in the sacred space that each of these bigger than life beings stood, in hope of awakening some of these powerful qualities in me.
"You Took It On", Julie Jordan Scott
"I took it on!"
The words leaped off the center of the yellowed legal pad where Marla had scribbled and doodled her accomplishments of 2004.
Her "Year in Review" wasn't an ordinary chart - it was a celebration in words. The months moved along the left side and words highlighting moments in time dancing on the right hand side. Words flowed in different directions, some standing tall and some making their presence known across several spaces.
One Handicap Perspective, Russ Miles
Since 1992, when ADA ~ Americans with Disabilities Act ~ took effect, we have witnessed an astronomical increase in community awareness. Vast numbers of handicapped persons who had rarely ventured out have come into public view. The sick have been assisted. Many broken have been made mobile. Physically unfortunates have been empowered.
