“… The Shift in Human Nature

You're starting to see integrity change. Awareness recalibrates integrity, and the Human Being who would sit there and take advantage of another Human Being in an old energy would never do it in a new energy. The reason? It will become intuitive, so this is a shift in Human Nature as well, for in the past you have assumed that people take advantage of people first and integrity comes later. That's just ordinary Human nature.

In the past, Human nature expressed within governments worked like this: If you were stronger than the other one, you simply conquered them. If you were strong, it was an invitation to conquer. If you were weak, it was an invitation to be conquered. No one even thought about it. It was the way of things. The bigger you could have your armies, the better they would do when you sent them out to conquer. That's not how you think today. Did you notice?

Any country that thinks this way today will not survive, for humanity has discovered that the world goes far better by putting things together instead of tearing them apart. The new energy puts the weak and strong together in ways that make sense and that have integrity. Take a look at what happened to some of the businesses in this great land (USA). Up to 30 years ago, when you started realizing some of them didn't have integrity, you eliminated them. What happened to the tobacco companies when you realized they were knowingly addicting your children? Today, they still sell their products to less-aware countries, but that will also change.

What did you do a few years ago when you realized that your bankers were actually selling you homes that they knew you couldn't pay for later? They were walking away, smiling greedily, not thinking about the heartbreak that was to follow when a life's dream would be lost. Dear American, you are in a recession. However, this is like when you prune a tree and cut back the branches. When the tree grows back, you've got control and the branches will grow bigger and stronger than they were before, without the greed factor. Then, if you don't like the way it grows back, you'll prune it again! I tell you this because awareness is now in control of big money. It's right before your eyes, what you're doing. But fear often rules. …”

British artist Hockney freed from Amsterdam elevator by firemen

The Hague (AFP) - British artist David Hockney had to be freed by Dutch firefighters from an elevator in Amsterdam as he was about to open a new exhibition of his works.

The 81-year-old, who holds the record for the most expensive painting by a living artist, had been heading down for a cigarette at his hotel late Wednesday when it suddenly stopped.

Hockney was in Amsterdam for the opening of "Hockney-Van Gogh: The Joy of Nature" at the Van Gogh Museum, which compares the British legend's works with those of the Dutch post-impressionist.

In the lift with Hockney was a group of journalists including BBC reporter Jim Naughtie, who later interviewed him.

"We were in there half an hour," Hockney said.

Asked if he had ever had a similar experience before, Hockney replied : "No never."

The BBC's Naughtie said the lift had "jerked to a halt" and that nothing had happened when they pressed the alarm button.

Eventually -- with the help of Geordie Greig, editor of Britain's Daily Mail tabloid, who was waiting in the lobby -- help came in the form of the Amsterdam fire brigade, Naughtie said.

Bottles of water were passed through a gap in the lift door -- as well as a folding stool for the elderly Hockney.

Hockney cheerfully posed afterwards for pictures with the Dutch firemen, who gave thumbs-up signs.

An iconic 1972 swimming pool picture by Hockney -- "Portrait of an Artist (Pool with Two Figures)" -- sold for $90.3 million at Christie's in New York in November, setting a new auction record for a living artist.

The Amsterdam exhibition examines the similarities between Hockney's colourful pictures, especially his landscapes of his native Yorkshire, and the vibrant paintings of Dutch master Van Gogh.
