SPIRITUAL AWAKENING
YANGON/ MYANMAR 4-14-2008
I would like to share some experiences when I was on a resent vacation in South East Asia. From April 11th to May 14th I was on vacation in Myanmar (Burma) where I traveled all through the Country.
When I was in Bagan and Mandalay I visited many, many Temples that date back 1,000 years. While visiting I noticed hundreds of people meditating and praying, something I don't really see in America.
Being a spiritual person I started to feel the energy and the calmness of the people around the Temples. In America we have churches and services twice a week, but not the feeling that you get when in Myanmar and other parts of Asia. Every where, everywhere you go in Myanmar on every block there is a Temple.
Coming back to America I really miss being able to walk anywhere and slip into a temple and close my eyes and get in touch with my spirituality. I am able to get this feeling when out in nature, but it seems like something is missing.
When I was sitting on top of some large hill or building and looking as many as 7,000 different Temples in Bagan that date back 1,100 years I couldn't stop thinking about all the people that had been there before me. All the praying and meditating that did.
When I sat with my eyes closed I felt a warmness, a feeling of happiness and calmness, a " Spiritual Awakening " I have only been back for three days and I already miss it!

Story about Las Vegas Nevada by Robert Swetz (Dated 2008)
As everyone knows the Real Estate market is down right now. One of the reasons is because it is election year and everyone is waiting to see who becomes our new President. The other reason is because all these Banks & Mortgage companies put home buyers into interest only/ option arms. Most of the homes purchased like this are upside down, in foreclosure, or being sold as short sales.
It is a good time to buy but be careful, many of the short sales and foreclosed homes are over priced and the values are continuing to go down. Also most of these homes are (AS IS/ WHERE IS), what is this where is crap? Is this some type of cute joke? Are they saying that the home for sale might be located in the wrong place? I am looking at purchasing another home for investment and if I did it would be for sale by owner, through an agent, not a foreclosed/ Short sale. I don't want AS IS/ WHERE IS, there could be some serious problems with the home.
Another problem is the (NEWS MEDIA). I don't have regular television at home or a land telephone line. I haven't watched the NEWS in almost 10 years and I know more about what is going on in this world than people that watch it 2-3 times per day. The NEWS is depressing, twisted with lies and information that people just want to hear. In one of my college classes many years ago, the first day of class my teacher stated 40-50 percent of the NEWS is lies. So which part of the NEWS are you suppose to believe? Stop watching the NEWS all the time and you will hear about it from everyone else, take a break. If the NEWS said the sky was falling, would you believe them? If everyone was jumping off the bridge, would you jump? Come on people, start thinking with your own brains.
Anyway, back to Real Estate in Las Vegas. Even though the market is slow in housing, Commercial Properties continue to hold in value, Vacant land also. Only one project of many such as (CITY CENTER) is going to employ 40-60 thousand people. Where are these people going to live? All the new building projects coming up in Las Vegas, someone has to build them, where are they going to live? There are construction workers coming to work in Las Vegas from all over the country and the world. These people have to live some where. Las Vegas might be rated number one for foreclosures, but that's because of the crooked Banks & Mortgage companies.
Las Vegas will continue to grow like never before, and this Real Estate slump where in is nothing compared to what's happening around the Country.
Please feel free to contact me by phone or email and I will tell you a different story than the (NEWS MEDIA).
