The interesting thing about greed is that although the underlying motive is to seek satisfaction, even after obtaining what you want, you’re still not satisfied. It’s this endless, nagging desire for more that leads to trouble. On the other hand, if you’re truly contented, it doesn’t matter whether you get what you want or not. Either way, you remain content.

This video is about how learning sign language changes the world for deaf people.
Patrick Otema, 15 was born profoundly deaf. In the remote area of Uganda where he lives there are no schools for deaf children, and he has never had a conversation. Raymond Okkelo, a sign language teacher, hopes to change all this and offer Patrick a way out of the fearful silence he has known his whole life.

You will only be loved and respected if you love and respect yourself. Never try to please everyone; if you do, you will be respected by no one.

My site The Mental Leap, my fifth blog on a domain on its own, had an unclear role when it came to what I should post where. I’ve now decided that everything that covers change, growth, transition, inspiration and similar topics will be on The Mental Leap. That means older posts will be moved there, whenever I find the time to do that.
This blog will become more personal (and maybe more boring…).
It’s funny how we can find great books. I was going from author website to author website one day and ended up at Chloe Thurlow. I started reading her blog and was hooked by her way of writing. That lead me to order Chloe’s latest book “Katie in love” and as you can see in the review below I really love that book.
My review of Katie in love
Katie meets Tom at a New Year’s Eve party. Their first meeting leads to much more, life changes for both of them. The book tells the story of their romance and gives glimpses into Katie´s past. At first glance Katie and Tom have nothing in common, during the book they find a shared passion not only for each other. It’s a great story about how love makes unexpected people connect and dare to ride on the current love creates, even when the future is unknown.
Chloe Thurlow is marvelous with words. Sometimes she paints detailed pictures, you really feel as if you’re there (a fly on the wall). At other times she paints in broader strokes to carry the story forward. I love the way the book is written.
To me the hallmark of a really great book is that it awakens something in me, that it makes me think and feel. Katie in love did that.
Don’t let the label erotic scare you off, it’s a great romantic novel including some erotic scenes.

I’m not good at Mula Bandha (root lock) and know I should practice it in order to improve. First step taken, I did a little research and found some useful posts about it.
