The other side of effort
On the other side of effort is accomplishment. On the other side of effort is the achievement of your goal.
From where you now stand, the effort may look like something you would rather avoid. The challenges may appear to be imposing and even insurmountable.
Think for a moment, though, about what things will look like from the other side of the effort, when it is finished. Consider how it will be once you've made the effort and moved through the challenges.
Looking back on the effort, you'll be thankful you did it. Looking back on the challenges, you'll know how much stronger and more capable they made you.
Looking back on the whole experience, you'll realize that your commitment and persistence took you somewhere special. They took you precisely where you had chosen to go.
The effort you now face will make significant demands of you, and yet the rewards are many. Choose now to start working your way to the other side.
President George W. Bush declared disaster areas in Oklahoma on Sunday, making federal aid available to people and businesses hurt by weeks of severe storms, flooding and tornadoes.
If you truly believe a UFO and its crew of bug-eyed aliens came crashing down here 60 years ago, rest assured: You're not alone.
At least 35,000 people descended on Roswell at the weekend for the 2007 Amazing Roswell UFO Festival to commemorate a purported flying saucer crash on a nearby ranch in July 1947.
So what is the mindset that makes it so much easier to relate to people?
Here it is in a nutshell:
Everyone you meet in your life ó even total strangers ó is already intimately connected to you. The idea that we are all separate and distinct beings is nothing but an illusion. We are all parts of a larger whole, like individual cells in a body.

Ah well, time is for mind ... here is:
Sunday 's Message from the Universe
Good morning fellow adventurer!
The reason you're "here" is not to be good, to be better, to be perfect, to get "stuff" done, to save the world, to save a person, to prove something, or to be anything... other than YOURSELF.
That's ALL you have to work on.
That's all you can do.
And by doing it... all those other things will happen anyway.
* 2007 is solar minimum - the quietest point of the 11-yaer sunspot cycle.
* July 7 is aphelion - the farthest point of the earth from the Sun in 2007.
So the Sun is thus doubly 'dead' on 7/7/07, signifying a moment of transition from life to death and back to life. It's Resurrection in the 'Valley of the Sun', like the nickname of the capital of Arizona, Phoenix.
