Recently, Ray found an article in the link below in the news section .  It’s about a shocking experience from a doctor who is a neurosurgeon who never believed there is a life after death.    Heaven Is Real: A Doctor’s Experience With the Afterlife by Dr. Eben Alexander  http://www.thedailybeast.com/newsweek/2012/10/07/proof-of-heaven-a-doctor-s-experience-with-the-afterlife.html  It’s interesting that the doctor seems to remember everything clearly with details, and how he was feeling while he was in that heaven.    Personally , I believe there is a life after death and we all are coming from these spiritual worlds.     http://www.flickr.com/photos/44858457@N00/1830355083/ And there is no end in the world, our spirits are forever, never ending.  I know each person has different idea of it, and I think each person’s “ thoughts “ will bring their own version of forever.   If one th...

This season’s figure skating competition sounds interesting ! I haven’t been watching most of skating competitions since last Olympics ( Vancouver Olympics 2010 ), only US Nationals and a few skaters , but always checked the results for all the senior events for men and ladies. But it’s excited to know that some skaters who were taking breaks are returning to competitions this season such as Johnny Weir, Evan Lysacek ( both took breaks since last Olympics ) and also Evgeny Plushenko .

( Evgeny Plushenko, Stephane Lambiel, Johnny Weir, Jeffrey Buttle, Brian Joubert, Daisuke Takahashi ) I was shocked to see these charismatic unique skaters in the men’s skating world, I didn...
