About me: Hello there, I am Adam Eason; therapist, author, broadcaster, consultant and speaker in the fields of hypnosis and personal development. I am also a marathon runner (Running London marathon again this year), traveller, continual student and surfer who lives overlooking the sea in sunny Bournemouth on the south coast of England.
I am not the well-honed, refined, vision of perfection, personal development guru as many of my professional peers. I get over excited by my work, I stutter at times, I often swear, I bare my soul too easily, I am often dogmatic and far too self-righteous, I take very little seriously, I drink tea when recording my audio programmes, my hands go crazy when I speak and I am easily led astray in many ways...
STOP and read this: If you like my blogs here and want much more, please visit www.adam-eason.com now and join the thousands across the world get my free weekly ezine Adam Up.
Go get Adam Up because every week it is packed with tips, techniques, strategies and resources from the fields of hypnosis, self-hypnosis and personal development so that you'll learn how to use your brain to its full potential. I know you will love it. You also get lots of free hypnotic goodies when you register to receive it, so go for it!
Whats up! Just stopping by to tell you we have our entire mixtape "Short Bus" up now so check it out, and if you like what you hear spread the word ! Thanx for being a friend and if you become a fan then welcome to the Fam. !!
As the soot and dirt and ash rained down, We became one color. As we carried each other down the stairs of the burning building, We became one class. As we lit candles of waiting and hope, We became one generation. As the firefighters and police officers fought their way into the inferno, We became one gender. As we fell to our knees in prayer for strength, We became one faith. As we whispered or shouted words of encouragement, We spoke one language. As we gave our blood in lines a mile long, We became one body. As we mourned together the great loss, We became one family. As we cried tears of grief and loss, We became one soul. As we retell with pride of the sacrifice of heroes, We become one people.
WE ARE One color One class One generation One gender One faith One language One body One family One soul One people
We are The Power of One. We are United. We are America.
~ Author Unknown... but a most brilliant being
Gratitude and prayers to all the troops still fighting this battle for us and to all the EMT service people and bystanders that took action on 9/11 and afterwards and to all those who have and who are now paying with their health and lives for helping those in need and cleaning up ground zero and to their families. Prayers & love to all those who lost their loved ones.
For Americans this was but one day that caused many changes, in many lives, in many ways... for many others this is everyday in many different ways.
