Thursday, May 22nd, 2008Living paycheck to paycheck is no fun, but with the exception of a lucky few born into privilege we have all done it at some point, or several points in our lives.

Living For The Moment, Being Present and Making Today Count
Thursday, May 22nd, 2008If you read my article on Eckhart Tolle and his book, The Power of Now, then you may have been left with the impression that I don’t value anything he has to say. The truth is however that despite my many misgivings about the book, I find his overall message to be quite awesome.

Tuesday, May 20th, 2008I have been busy over the past couple of days working on stop on giving The Limelight a new, fresher, look. As a result, I haven’t had time to make as many posts.

How To Be Successful: The Keys to Being A Winner
Saturday, May 17th, 2008I believe that the main reason people are not successful is because they do not believe they can be.

The Top 5 Reasons Why You Need to Buy a Digital SLR Right Now
Thursday, May 15th, 2008Once upon a time when digital cameras were still new and exciting toys to play with when you didn’t want to bring your “real” (film) camera with you, there were some who envisioned a utopian world where the heavy, bulky SLR, and all it’s mechanical parts, would one day disappear, leaving behind a new [...]
Eckhart Tolle Is a Looney Feminist In Disguise: A Review of ‘The Power of Now’
Tuesday, May 13th, 2008If you haven’t heard of The Power of Now before reading this article, chances are you would have eventually. It’s become a bit of a phenomenon you see, well beyond the level of your average “new age” book. This is due to author Eckhart Tolle’s apparent lack of religious affiliation, and a huge amount of [...]
The Sad Story of Made in Canada Hand-Dipped Incense
Saturday, May 10th, 2008I cannot deny it: I have become somewhat of an incense fiend. I am completely addicted to the warm, sweet smelling odour that permeates my home and greets my senses when i walk in the door.
