Book Meme

I was tagged by the handsome Mancat Rascal for this meme.

Here are the rules:
1. Pick up the nearest book.
2. Open to page 123
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the next three sentences.
5. Tag five people and post a comment to
Empress once you post it to your blog so “I”
(empress, not us) can come see!



The book is " A New Earth: Awakening to Your life's Purpose "
by Eckhart Tolle
I guess everyone is reading this,heeheehee



" When you give little or no help to others or put obstacles in their path, the universe---in the form of people and circumstances---gives little or no help to you because you have cut yourself off from the whole.The ego's unconscious core feeling of "not enough" causes it to react to someone else's success as if that success had taken something away from "me". It dosen't know that your resentment of another person's success curtails your own chances of success."
Thunder Bum, er Monty , heehee!!!

  8. Hi Mickey. You and your people are very generous and kind, so you are the best part of the book description. My people showed the relatives your blog and the gifts you sent me. They think you are all wonderful!

  11. Cool meme, I've seen this one on other blogs. That's a good book you are reading and have read similar ideas in other works. The bottom line is treat your neighbor as you would yourself. Of course...if you have a bad view of yourself that's not so good, right?

  12. What an interesting way to do a meme my dear. This is a very true message in three sentences. We tend to complicate things for ourselves at times. Mommy says, "We are our own worst enemies tripping over our trail of pride..."
    I am having a sleepin today for Miral...please join me in prayer when you have made all your visits my beloved friend.
