Well, the big soccer match between my old country Holland and Argentina ended in a 4 to 2 penalty shootout in favour of Argentina, all after a well played and very evenly matched match. Saturday Holland and Brazil will battle over third place finish, while Germany and Argentina – no strangers – will play over first and second.

If Holland would have won yesterday, then the audience for the final would have been low in Brazil. This may be the reason Van Gaal made those odd last minute substitutions, before the shootout. Even I would find a final match between Holland and Germany a little boring!

Last night I made one outing to get some last minute dvd-s on sale at Casablanca, which closes this coming Sunday. I went for a mix of a two docus, 2 comedies, a thriller and Annie Proulx’s ‘The Shipping News’, a novel I read in my lit class at MRC back in 1996. Eight dvd-s are set aside and today is payday.

Later this aft Juliet and I will have our computer dinner social and maybe I’ll even see my son before that, but he is quite busy these days. Last nite I deleted all my cookies on my desktop using the web developers tool bar to do so, with the result that Shaw webmail won’t accept my sign in strings. I’ll have to get Shaw help to get this cleared up.

This morning I was up quite early and had breakfast before getting dressed, making an intuitive break from my routine. There was something that needed to surface in my awareness I felt and it did. What emerged was a modification in the form of an addition to my short belief statement.

As a participating participant within Existence Divine, I commit to bringing conscious expression of Existence Divine into my life as my aim.

The addition refers to an earlier affirmation of mine about being ‘a participating participant in Existence Divine’, which I have used for a number of years. Over the last few days I had the feeling that this earlier affirmative was missing from the new short belief statement. This morning I worked on the slowly emerging reformulation with the following result:

“As a participating participant within Existence Divine, I commit to bringing conscious expression of Existence Divine into my life as my aim.”
This still reads a little awkward, but it does reflect my intention of adding the aspect of the committed participant, though I may have to rework the wording a bit yet.
