The Wonderful Blog Which You ve Never Seen

Armageddon, is it upon us? Are we in the final seven years of our present day world?

From the very beginning of existences, scientists, and great thinkers of all times have been trying to figure out the evolution of our world. They believe and teach that a huge explosion erupted scattering particles that came together and formed the solar system and later put together the human race and all things surrounding our world. Yet today they fear that our world is at a point where extinction is possible, because of the way we have abused the resources of our planet.

Theologians believe God created the universe and earth. Using the Bible as the ultimate authority of how our world was formed and how human life came into being. They believe that according to the Word of God our world is coming to the end.

Today a new and different theory has come to the surface. The idea that our world was formed as a playing field. An elaborate Life Game where people’s sole purpose are to be put to the test. Tests that are meant to change them for the more perfect world to come.

Look at how our world has been formed and how people and our environment interact within every human being’s life. If we are in a Life Game then our world must be more than the physical and concrete of our present day lives.

To be in a Great Game of Life is to acknowledge that we are like puppets under the influence of a greater and higher intelligence. A Creator, who must influence our thinking and lead us down paths to reveal the greatest purpose behind the Game of Life, a divine plan for human evolution.

To play the Game of Life is to understand the unexplained happenings within the makeup of the human consciousness. One of these mysteries is revealed in the anomaly that as human beings we only use 10 percent of our brains.

Scientist have for years speculated that the remaining 90 percent of the brain must be some sort of storage ground. In the game of life it is speculated that this part of our brain is the very core where the battle between right and wrong is fought. A Spiritual existence that leads us to paths of learning.

While our world only needs 10 percent of our brains for us to live in the concrete, our Game of Life needs 90 percent in order for us to play our game to gain the maximum level of achievement.

In a game no one knows the outcome until it comes to the end. This is the very reason why we come to this world not knowing we are in a game. To know we are in a game is to win before we ever begin.

Not knowing we are in a game gradually takes us through life experiences revealing secrets little by little. That is the reason why we have the unexplained areas in our brain. This area is our spiritual existence that pushes us into each different experience we must go through in order to achieve the goals for our particular game.

When we suffer we are lead into different levels of understanding that reveals to us the difference between right and wrong. This game is so complex because it uses every fiber of our human makeup in order to help us to come to a truth.

A truth that reveals the evil ways of our present day world. A message that brings us through the tribulations of life and leads us to revelations.

The whole goal of our existences is to be changed into new people. A person full of compassion for our fellowman and who does not judge, because we have learned to endure the pain of unjust suffering. That is the purpose behind living in a corrupt and evil world.

To think of how our world game has been formed is to unlock the complexities of our existence. Remember to be part of a game we must be challenged. How better to do this than to have a world with people of multi-ethnic backgrounds and different lifestyles.

Our belief systems plus how our different governments work opposing each other reveal the difference that help us to come to the ultimate conclusions of who is wise and who is ignorant.

While one government promotes democracy another demands communism. While Christians believe in Jesus, Muslims believe in Ala and Hindus’ believe in Buddha. All of our different beliefs combined with our different lifestyles challenges us as we learn revelations while we proceed down the different paths of life.

It is a known fact that each person’s life is predisposed to a particular personality and to different levels of intelligence. In our Game of Life each person’s life has a destiny completely designed to navigate through this world on a certain path.

That is the reason why some people are doctors, while others are mechanics and barbers. Our world is carefully put together giving each person a direction in life they must accomplish in order to bring about a balance for the world’s game.

In order to play the game to the highest degree of achievement we must have a belief system. We must either believe in the world or we must believe in a Higher Being. This is why in order to win we must believe in God.

If we don’t believe in God then we are limited to this world’s way of handling life. When we place our faith in the unseen God then we expand our world and are open to the deeper complexities found through knowing the truth surrounding the spiritual dimension of our existence.

Today people are experiencing greater levels of testings with the inventions brought on by the communications industries. We see world events unfolding on our televisions. We hear about how our destructive use of our natural resources have influenced the earths atmosphere. We see the devastation brought on by hurricanes, floods and all forms of natural disasters.

Today even the motives of our world leaders are brought out for all people to see and understand. Nothing is hidden any longer all things about our weak human existence is being revealed because it is time to understand that our world game is about to end.

Now is the time for all people to see that they are not in this world to lead their lives for what the world has to offer. Our battle is one of learning, but just like a board game must end so the Game of Life must end. We are here for a greater purpose. A purpose that reaches beyond this world and into an eternal existence.

This eternal world is our reward for going through the trials of life and winning the greatest game of them all!

My name is Linda C. Dipman and I am the author of “The Game of Life It’s Almost Over”. My web page is www.outskirtspress.com/gameoflife. In my new book I prove through scripture and by using the example of my own life story that we are in a huge multifaceted game. With the knowledge I explain how the game is played and how to win. Twenty million people are depressed in our world today, many have lost hope not only in themselves, but in the American dream. Knowing we are in a game, helps people to step back from their lives and have hope that they have and purpose that goes beyond their present day pain. thegameoflife

Halloween would not be complete without the many Halloween party favors. These are the extras that make Halloween even more special. This could be everything from the personalized treat bag to the designer costume. Many of the costumes that you buy come with matching accessories. For instance, if you buy a pumpkin costume for you child they normally have a small plastic pumpkin with a handle to be used for treats when they are out trick or treating.

When hosting a Halloween party, you must make sure that you include Halloween party favors such as the decorations. This would be things like the traditional black cat being escorted by a couple witches. Ghost and goblins hanging around inside and outside of your home make great party favors. Jack-o-lanterns and pumpkins are essential to have the perfect Halloween atmosphere. You can use backlights to add special effects to all of the decorations. Talking mannequins and skulls that light up are unusual Halloween favors that will impress your guest. These are the things people love to see at Halloween and look forward to.

Inside decorations such as balloons and streamers help set the mood for Halloween so you do not want to forget them. Halloween party favors also include supplying designer paper plates, cups, napkins and even a Halloween tablecloth.

Party favors that may not be so obvious are the items that you would want to give out to your guest as door prizes, or the prizes they receive for winning at one of the party games. These party favors can include things like children’s rings, necklaces, bracelets, toy watches plus other small jewelry. Other items that you can use for Halloween party favors would be an assorted collection of bugs, spiders, vampire teeth and bats. Stickers and glow sticks keep children entertained for long periods of time. Flashlights that shine images of ghosts and pumpkins can also be very amusing.

Many people enjoy fixing up a treat bag with an assorted number of items inside, like candy, fruit, gift certificates, small toys and anything else that you can find appropriate for Halloween.

Leadership is a popular topic both in the business and education worlds. The main reason for this popularity is that effective leadership is a primary factor for the success of any organization. By implementing leadership at the middle school and high school grades, the belief is that this earlier intervention will ultimately help not only the students, but the local communities, small businesses and larger corporate citizens.

What constitutes an effective middle school or high school system wide leadership program that delivers a positive return on your investment? These 10 pointers may help you better answer that question.

1. All staff must be developed at leaders to ensure consistency of behaviors through modeling. From bus drivers to superintendents, these individuals become role models for many young people. If their behavior is not consistent with any curriculum, then the likelihood of sustained success is doubtful. Using a student leadership program that evolved from a proven adult leadership process is probably a better way to proceed.

2. The desired end results for this leadership program should be clearly articulated before adoption of any curriculum. Simple benchmarks could be improved grades, improved high school retention and less discipline referrals. All benchmarks need to be measurable because as the old adage goes “if you can measure it, you can’t manage it.” This is the beginning to determine a positive or negative return on your investment for the leadership program or any change initiative.

3. The curriculum should focus on the affective learning domain especially interpersonal skills. Additionally, the cognitive and psychomotor domains should include: communication, conflict resolution, goal setting and goal achievement, higher order thinking skills, team building and time management.

4. Alignment between the leadership curriculum and the other academic disciplines is also necessary to the success of such a program. There needs to be numerous opportunities to apply newly learned concepts outside of the leadership classroom.

5. A goal setting and goal achievement Action Plan is probably the most critical piece to the success of this program. This Action Plan for success should allow for all students to self-evaluate themselves and provide a mechanism to prioritize and organize current and future goals.

6. A mentoring or alumni program should follow the student leadership development program. At this juncture is when the youth can fully participate in community projects as well as mentor younger students.

7. Parents need to be informed and if possible included within this leadership program. With many parents lacking the necessary skills and tools to help their children, by proactively working with parents helps both the young people and the school.

8. Local small business owners to larger corporate citizens need to be also involved. These companies can help by participating as keynote speakers as well as work to fund scholarships to help offset the cost of the leadership program and employing the graduates.

9. The curriculum should be highly interactive, highly adaptable and flexible and modeled after the best corporate training and development programs. Also, this curriculum should be researched based and should reinforce sound educational research including emotional intelligence, cognitive retention, etc.

10. Any student leadership program should also include pre and post assessments both cognitive and attitudinal. Additionally, a mechanism should be included to track these students for longitudinal data collection. These assessments show both the short-term return on investments as well as the long-term investments.

Finally, this leadership program should be for the majority of your student body and not just the high performing students. The success of our country is due to the as much if not more so to the every day efforts of the average citizen.

If constructing a viable and sustainable student world-class leadership program is in your current or future plans, then these pointers should catapult you ahead of the class because you now know that you have created self-leaders who are capable of being the knowledge workers needed in the 21st century workforce.
