The Cigar Lawsuit

This has very little to do with quantum physics or spirituality, but I thought it was funny so I had to share it. You may have already heard about this but I hadn't. I even checked snopes.com to make sure it was a true story - and it is. So this is what happens now when someone tries to be a "victim." It doesn't work - at least in my universe. Funny story anyway. Enjoy. 

A Charlotte, N.C., man, having purchased a box of very rare, very expensive cigars insured them against fire, among other things. Within a month of having smoked his entire stockpile of cigars and without having made even his first premium payment on the policy, the man filed a claim against the insurance company. In his claim, the man stated the cigars were "lost in a series of small fires."

The insurance company refused to pay, citing the obvious reason: that the man had consumed the cigars in the normal fashion. The man sued ... and won! In delivering the ruling, the judge agreed that the claim was frivolous. He stated, nevertheless, that the man held a policy from the company in which it had warranted that the cigars were insurable and also guaranteed that it would insure against fire, without defining what is considered to be "unacceptable fire," and was obligated to pay the claim. Rather than endure a lengthy and costly appeal process, the insurance company accepted the ruling and paid the man $15,000 for the rare cigars he had lost in the "fires."

After the man cashed the check, the insurance company had him arrested on 24 counts of arson. With his insurance claim and testimony from the previous case being used against him, the man was convicted of intentionally burning his insured property and sentenced to 24 months in jail and a $24,000.00 fine.

Developing Your Intuitive & Psychic Abilities

I get many emails from people asking how I can help them develop their own psychic and Intuitive abilities, or how they can learn to see auras. 

These are things you can do:

1) You can get my "Develop Your Intuitive & Psychic Abilities" DVD on my website. It has explanations and exercises to help you practice and strengthen your abilities. Get a group of your friends together and enjoy the class together.

2) You can read about the different aura colors in my book Life Colors and practice sensing what other people's aura colors are. I even have a section in the book teaching people how to see auras. 

3) You can listen to the various radio shows in the archives on my website.  You can even practice tuning into the different callers to see if you can pick up their aura colors - I usually tell them on the air - or see if you can sense anything else about them. It's a good way to practice reading people you don't know.

There are so many interesting people interviewed on my show as well. Hearing them speak, and learning that there is scientific evidence to support that these abilities are real and natural, could help you move past any personal doubts or fears - or beyond any skepticism you hear from others around you.

4) If you ever want a private session or private tutoring, I'm available. (It's challenging to know specifically where to tell you to go next with your abilities without actually tuning into you and finding out personally what your soul wants in this lifetime. I don't really tune into someone through letters or emails - I don't pick up your energy well enough to be thorough and in-depth and do a good job.)

5) There are usually many "psychic development" classes offered by people around the world. You could attend some of those to learn more and have the opportunity to practice with others. Just please make sure you feel that the instructors are authentic and trustworthy, and that you feel comfortable with them.

If anyone has other suggestions or stories to share about their own experiences, feel free to add your stories and comments on my blog.

Have fun! These are natural abilities - we all have them. More and more people are realizing they have these abilities and developing them. The consciousness seems to be headed in that direction. So relax and trust your inner voice, your intuition. It can be fun. No reason to fear something so natural.

The Four Agreements

This is a cool video - The Four Agreements by Don Miguel Ruiz - which my friend Janet Mills published. I thought the message was great...and touching.
