Making friends is an art and, you will need to learn some of the things that it takes to get the art. The art of making friends unlike what many think is not complicated at all. You will need to look for vital tips that will actually guide you. To make good friends, we need to be guided and, the following are some of the secrets that will see you learn the art and make the friends that you want and deserve. First, before you say you deserve good friends, it is vital to look at what you are like. Your behavior and mannerisms are directly linked to the kind of people you draw in your life to be your friends. In other words, you will make friends who are just like you. The art of making good friends is about looking for good friends because you are worth good friends. There are no two ways about it and, you will see this to be true in your life. There are other factors that come to play while learning the art and they include the following.

The art of making friends will depend on the age you are at. Your gender will also shape the kind of friendships you get into. Above all, your personality is the key to make friends as we have mentioned earlier. If you are the kind of person who is introverted, the way you make friends will actually be different from the way others make friends. There are several things that will guide you on how exactly you can master the art of making friends in your life. After you have considered the kind of person you are, it is time to look at the areas in which you can improve. For example, if you realize that your traits cannot attract anybody, you can change and look for some virtue to incorporate in your life. This is a place where many fail and it has to do with changing. Many will pretend to be something they are not just to get into friendships that will later die. You must be true to yourself to look for real change if you want to make good friends.

The art of making friends will call to a realization that nobody is perfect. You will make good friends who will make mistakes. Mistakes help us to learn and move on. Therefore, when faced with problems, know that they are not unique to you. When you have this in mind, it is good for you to be friendly when you spot a potential friend. Many wait to meet friends by default. You have to take a deliberate step when looking for friends. However, it is good for you to take it easy not to force things. You cannot force yourself to be somebody’s friend and you will realize that it will take a mutual agreement before you take the relationship to a deeper level. The art is not complicated at all and there is one guide that will see you maintain the friendship in the manner you are supposed to. You should treat others the way you would want to be treated. When you keep this in mind, you will always make relationships you are proud of.



Shirley Maclaine Becomes A UFO Conspiracy Reporter

Bill Knell asked:


Already a knowledgeable New Age author, researcher and practitioner of sorts, Academy Award-winning Actress Shirley MacLaine seems to have added UFO conspiracy reporter to her resume. In her latest book, Saging While Aging, Shirley reveals what she knows or has learned about various incidents involving UFOs, the military, intelligence services and famous people. The well-known performer that has appeared in almost sixty films to date recently discussed her book and shared some of these revelations with Whitley Strieber on his Dreamland web cast.

One of the most-shocking claims made by the veteran actress is that the late John Mack, professor of Psychiatry at Harvard University and alien abductions researcher, may have been murdered. Dr Mack was killed by a drunk driver as he stepped off a curb in London, England, near Totteridge Lane and Longland Drive on September 27, 2004. He was walking home alone after a dinner with some friends when the incident occurred. Shirley says that another person named John Mack was also killed by a drunk driver around the same time in another part of London.

Another story Shirley shares is one that she heard from Lucille Ball involving the late Ronald Reagan. While he was still an actor, Ronald Reagan was attending a party with several other celebrities at a private residence in Los Angeles. The actor and his wife arrived several hours late. According to well-known actress and comedienne Lucille Ball, Reagan took her aside and told her that he and his wife Nancy had an amazing experience on the way to the party.

Ronald Regan told Lucy that he and Nancy were driving on Mulholland Drive when a UFO landed near their vehicle. Although this story has been told before, a number of new details were added. For example, Shirley MacLaine says Lucille Ball told her that Reagan claimed a ladder appeared and an alien climbed out of the craft. The alien told him to quit his acting work and go into politics. The most popular version of that same story doesn’t include the appearance of an alien or what he said to the former California Governor and President of the United States.

MacLaine had a few more surprises in store for Whitley Strieber and his audience. One was that she believed the popular account that President Eisenhower met with aliens at what is now Edwards Air Force Base in 1954. Another was her admiration for the late Dr Michael Wolf and the information he shared with paranormal researchers. Dr Wolf is well known to some in the UFO field as a U.S. Government Insider that spent roughly the last ten years of his life sharing some of what he knew or had learned about UFOs and aliens. Those revelations included as much as he was allowed to reveal about U.S. Government involvement with aliens.

Fellow paranormal researcher **** Criswell and I spent years speaking with Dr Wolf., **** much more so than I. Michael Wolf spoke about things involving UFOs and aliens in the 1990s that were completely unknown to UFO researchers at that time. That caused him more than a few problems with many in the UFO research community where already jealous and distrustful people took aim at his claims. Despite almost complete rejection by major UFO research organizations, Dr Wolf’s information was credible and time has proven him to be correct. Several video and audio presentations by or about Dr Wolf are offered at

Crop Circles?

Ernie Fitzpatrick asked:


Okay, who hasn’t seen Mel Gibson’s movie entitled, “Signs“? Does anyone really believe in crop circles? And just what is a crop circle you ask? Crop circle is a term used to describe patterns created by the flattening of crops such as wheat, barley, canola, rye, corn, linseed and soy. Examples can be found world wide. Various hypotheses have been offered to explain their formation, ranging from the naturalistic to the paranormal.

Amateur scientist, John Rand Capron, described more than 1,800 investigations that was writtena nd reported in the January 2000 issue of the Journal of Meteorology.

Crop circles came into big time prominence in the late 1970s. Many circles began appearing throughout the English countryside particularly. The phenomenon of crop circles became widely known in the late 1980s, after the media started to report crop circles in Hampshire and Wiltshire. To date, approximately 12,000 crop circles have been discovered in sites across the world.

A Dutch graphic designer, by the name of Janosh, recently discovered that many of his computer-generated art had incorporated and depicted many of the principles later discovered in crop circles. He has come to believe that according to the Maya, we will leave the world of the 4th Sun and enter the world of the 5th Sun on December 21, 2012. Guatemalan anthropologist Carlos Barrios also supports the major change from the 4th to the 5th Sun.

This 5th Sun will see a fusion or uniting of both the masculine masculine and feminine energies, and be a transition where there won’t be any more confrontations between polarities. If we are to save our planet there must be a moving toward non-duality. There must be a healing of the breach between body-soul, male-female, East-West, Yin-Yang, human-divine, etc.

While I think that we are moving into a new age in and around the year 2012, I certainly have no way of judging some of Janosh’s reasoning. Here’s why.

Janosh received telepathic messages after the Harmonic Concordance of 2003 (the lunar eclipse around five planets forming the Star of David) from the Arcturians, whom he says are multidimensional beings who live in a dimension parallel to our reality. The Arcturians are benevolent ultraterrestial beings who can converse with our intuitive senses, rather than being physically seen or head.

How do I argue with that? :-)

Edgar Cayce has said in his teachings that Arcturus is one of the most advanced civilizations in this galaxy. It is the fifth-dimensional civilization that is a prototype of Earth’s future. Its energy works as an emotional, mental, and spiritual healer for humanity. It is also an energy gateway through which humans pass during death and rebirth.

How do I argue with that as well?

Once more, one has to suspend their disbelief in order to truly believe. Well, I’ve done that, but I’m still not there yet. What I do embrace though is that the Mayans knew things about the univrse that we didn’t until recently and they probably knew more than we do currently. So, I stay open. There’s too much evidence for me that crop circles are not ALL man-made.

Alfred Watkins (1855-1935), a locally well-known and respected Herefordshire businessman, who while looking at a map for features of interest, noticed a straight line that passed over hill tops through various points of interest, all of which were ancient. At the time of his discovery, Watkins had no theory about alignments but on that June afternoon saw (some would say intuitively or supernaturally) a whole pattern of lines stretching across the landscape.

He called these Ley lines, or Leys, which are now known as alignments of ancient sites stretching across the landscape. Ancient sites or holy places may be situated in a straight line ranging from one or two to several miles in length. A ley may be identified simply by an aligned placing of marker sites, or it might be visible on the ground for all or part of its length by the remnants of an old straight track.

The bottom line is that we’re living in a world well beyond our fifth and sixth senses. Unless we open ourselves to being teachable (not that we have to buy the ranch) and laying down our pride, which our ego stands guard over, we’ll miss much that awaits our discovery. Scientists have affirmed that crop circles have become more subtle and complex in the last decade.

Jonash has written, “Humankind and mother Earth are on the eve of a massive evolution. In 2012, the Age of Aquarius will commence; the Age of Pisces will pass. By expanding our consciousness and becoming more aware, we will review reality in a different way in years to come.”

There are many differing dates for the Age of Aquarius (the latest one being 2156), so I am not so sure that I agree with the first part of his quote. I do agree with the second sentence though. An expanding and exponential increase in collective consciousness is on the way and it will change our world!
