Karen from Live the Power hit me up to take part in a group writing project, passed to her by Rick Cockrum of Shards of Consciousness, and to him by Liz Strauss of Successful Blog.

The Challenge: Share Five Posts from Your Past Writing

The Question: Would you change what you’ve said?

To answer the question first: no - I wouldn’t change the basic ideas behind what I’ve written. I may have written them better (like Rick said), or been more consistent, but I don’t think there’s anything that I would say “My view on that has completely changed.” I can only think of one post that I kinda sorta regret making, but I really don’t like deleting them once they are published, so it’s stayed, with updates.

When it comes to the posts that I’d like to share, a comment that was left by Jean of Transforming Stress to Personal Power got me thinking. Jean asked:

Would you be willing to tell me what changes you are making in your life and what tools you are using?

So a little review is probably in order… her question dovetails nicely with this particular meme.

Here are my five posts:

The Secret (May 1, 2006)

This was my first post after watching the original version of The Secret - the version with Esther Hicks. I still haven’t seen the extended edition. This is where I really started to get interested in something I’d known about for a long time, but wasn’t using to my advantage - the Law of Attraction.

Jesus and Earl (May 24, 2006)

In this post, I really started to get the whole “Do Unto Others” thing. It’s not tit-for-tat: when we do for others, we already are doing for ourselves. I should probably also fix the dead links in that article, since it references an old blog of mine that’s no longer around.

Antidepressants (December 15, 2006)

This one was a post where wrote about my decision to go back on an antidepressant medication. I remember being pretty torn up about this, but I now know that it was probably one of the best decisions I could have made. I know there’s a lot of controversy around this kind of medication, but I’m not really interested in that. I use what works for me.

The Spiritual Atheist (February 27, 2007)

A write up of my thoughts on god, religion, and spirituality.

It’s Between You and God (June 21, 2007)

More of Mother Teresa’s words than my own, but here I did a little exploring about just who I have to answer to in my own life.
