<p><span style="font-family: Arial;"><strong>Because, quite frankly, I just want to help.</strong> I know how hard it is to</span><span style="font-family: Arial;"> get over your fears of rejection. I know how difficult it can be tightening up</span><span style="font-family: Arial;"> your ‘game’. I know what it feels like to want beautiful women in your life, but</span><span style="font-family: Arial;"> not having anyone. I literally got sick of feeling this way. That’s when I decided</span><span style="font-family: Arial;"> to get this ALL figured out for myself. It’s kinda funny because even trying to figure it out for myself was an impossible goal.  You see, although I had to do it for myself and often times by myself, I could not get this part of my life handled alone.  I needed other people and that took me a while to figure out.  I share these things with you because I know how it feels.  I know how it feels to be struggling and coping with very difficult situations alone, but also feeling within yourself some hope, some expression of what could be possible for you in your life only if you had someone there with you.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Arial;"><a href="http://facebook.com/thesecrettothegame"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1694" title="ebookUpdate" src="http://charlesrstarr.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/ebookUpdate-225x300.png" alt="ebookUpdate" width="225" height="300" /></a><br />
</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Arial;">And so I created The Secret to the Game and I’m dedicating it to all those men, wherever you may be who want to get this part of their life handled.  My goal is that it will improve your life, it will increase your clarity in this ‘game’, and it will help improve your success with anything you desire to included- but not limited to- women, happiness, health and wealth.</span><span style="font-family: Arial;"> </span></p>
<p>And now I just want to get the word out and share my SECRETS that I learned along the way with you- FAIR?</p>
<p>Kind Regards,</p>
<p>Charles R. Starr</p>

<p>5 years ago some  dramatic turns of events had me in a cross roads ready to check out on  life.  Instead I created my first vision board and used it to turn my life around as a result, I&#8217;m still here!!  I have been fortunate enough to visit 12  Countries in 5 years with little money, just the desire to explore and the  ability to create the space to receive.  The below video is a collection of my experiences in the past 5 years; &#8216;coincidental&#8217; as it is, they are the exact experiences I dreamed for myself when I first placed them on my vision board.  Dream BIG and see where your Dreams take you.</p>
<p><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="345" height="264" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/PDz0B603btc&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1?border=1" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="345" height="264" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/PDz0B603btc&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1?border=1" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></p>
<p>While I was in New Zealand 3years ago, a clairvoyant women  told me it was my destiny to write 3 books that were going to change my  life and the world around me.  After saying a prayer asking for a sign  and receiving it I made a vision board of Oprah and Egypt; I then made a  video and sent it to her.  The video I created is below&#8230;,</p>
<p><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="345" height="264" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/u2kd_EgOTaU&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1?border=1" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="345" height="264" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/u2kd_EgOTaU&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1?border=1" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></p>
<p>Subsequently, I put the above video on my myspace page to source a angel investor.<br />
The investor had me write 2 pages a day for 10 days. He loved my  story and my writing and encouraged me to write 5 pages a day for 5 days  earning me $4,000.00 dollars for a research project to Egypt.</p>
<p>My book &#8220;Dreaming of Reality&#8221; is a how-to guide to making your Dreams a  reality.  I share my story of my trials and tribulations on how my desire and passion led me to my dreams.  When you declare who you are or who you want to become and put action to support your dreams, the universe delivers and gives you the life your destined to live to accomplish and share the SECRET with others.  It&#8217;s my destiny to help others find their purpose and passion.  Becoming a life-coach for teenagers while saving my niece in the process.  I will share more with you about my charity projects and current events at a later time.</p>
<p>But for now, I want to continue forward with this story.  Mike Handcock is the producer of a film called Dreamcatchers movie.  The movie follows the story of nine ordinary individuals living  extraordinary lives.  Part documentary, part story telling, it includes  Egyptian, Mayan and Magi Astrology.  <a onclick="onClickUnsafeLink(event);" href="http://www.dreamcatchersmovie.com/" target="_blank">www.dreamcatchersmovie.com</a>.  My part in the movie/documentary shows how I have taken the teachings of the secret to source and manifest amazing things.  I&#8217;m one  of 9 visionaries featured in Dreamcatchers movie.  Check out the Trailer below.</p>
<p><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="345" height="264" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/9tXL3JEtwfI&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1?border=1" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="345" height="264" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/9tXL3JEtwfI&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1?border=1" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></p>
<p>On the Dreamcatcher&#8217;s cruise, my plan is that I share and explore with people how to make their own dreams and aspirations come true. My hope is to teach them the skill-set of &#8220;Dreaming of Reality&#8221; and help them create their own vision-boards to start making their dreams and aspirations come true today.</p>
<p><strong>Here is my wish: I have not been able to come up with the money on my own for the trip to Asia.  My dear friend Susan works for a airline and is selling me her Buddy pass It&#8217;s stand by so please pray for me that God will work through me and direct me to my destined path even if it keeps me at the airport longer then desired LOL.  I realized I have to stop controlling how.  Release and surrender.  I caught a break in the price for traveling with FAITH.  Other needs includes but not limited to-transfers, cruise expense, hotel fees, basic needs, etc&#8230;  the trip is in 3 weeks.  I&#8217;m looking to break free and complete this trip which also completes the travel portion of my vision board.  My  desire to create this possibility and share my experiences are creative and humbling!  I&#8217;m going to people that &#8220;BELIEVE&#8221; and or who have been blessed and they&#8217;re &#8220;paying it forward&#8221;.    I am looking to cover the expenses as mentioned above <em>anything</em> you can  give will be greatly appreciated. I&#8217;m not asking for a hand out but a helping hand to help others.  With your donation I will send a inspirational butterfly gift and/or jewelry.  I will even put a shout-out on your social media page thanking you for your support.<br />
</strong></p>
<p>After the fulfillment of this journey, the movie will have been launched in 23 Countries 98 City&#8217;s around the world and on every continent on earth.  And the Dreamcatchers Movie is helping me build my platform for my teen  program, so that I may pay it forward and give back.  And along with my book, I plan to shift the minds of  people/individuals around the world.</p>
<p>I BELIEVE everything happens for a reason, I get to source and manifest the unknown again.  If you don&#8217;t put it out into the universe how can the universe give back.  It doesn&#8217;t know what your heart desires.  The last country on my first vision board is to go to the &#8220;Great  Wall of China.&#8221;  I&#8217;m looking for angels who want to help get me to my goal, who BELIEVE in the power of numbers and intent.  I will pay it forward and I HOPE you will pay it forward if you can.  Below is a donation button for those who can give.</p>

<p>I received an email invite several months ago requesting  the cast crew, friends, and family go on a Cruise leaving Beijing and then stopping and experiencing Korea and Japan.  I couldn&#8217;t believe how God and the universe works.  I immediately called  Mike and asked him if he  remembered my vision board and how the Great Wall was on my Vision quest, Mike laughed and told me he remembered about the trip on the  board when I mentioned it, but the trip wasn&#8217;t planned around me and my  vision board.  I know in my heart that the universe is providing.   But again, like I have mentioned, the universe is challenging me on &#8220;HOW&#8221; I get to Asia.</p>
<p>This journey has been amazing.  I don&#8217;t want it to stop but am in need of the resource to get there.  Last minute the angel investor ran into some unforeseen financial setbacks.  My goal is to release the first three chapters on the Dreamcatchers movie soul journey cruise.  These chapters will include who I am and what started me down this path.I will release a chapter a week on my Blog, while advertising and promoting my Fan page on FaceBook, and have everyone blog about  their thoughts on each chapter. 15 weeks after launching my first chapter, I will release a hard copy and ebook integrated with pictures and video.  What I&#8217;m really excited about is  that I have a few publishers looking at my book and are willing to help.</p>
<p>The last chapter hasn&#8217;t been written.  I want to write about accomplishing my dream travels.  I had a dream and accomplished the travel portion in 5 years.  The Great Wall has purpose and meaning for me and my soul is calling out to me to go on this trip.  This is an important chapter I want to express.  I know it&#8217;s going to be amazing!  I can fill you in on the details of why it&#8217;s so important and powerful to travel, write and include this experience of Asia the last trip to completed my first board.  <span style="color: #0000ff;">If you&#8217;d like, check out my video below and connect with me on facebook.  <a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/Butterfly-Within/127259170640018?v=app_4949752878&amp;ref=ts">Click here</a> to connect with me on facebook.  My facebook fanpage is where I love to keep contact with you and my friends</span>.</p>
<p>The other half of my dream is being on Oprah, celebrities  wearing my jewelry, getting married and having babies.  My <em>most recent</em> Oprah video is below.  I just created it a couple weeks ago.  I&#8217;m excited that God brought a friend who has recently come into my life who has contacts to Harpo studios.  My prayer is that some day I will meet her in person and she will have me share my story to the world on her show.</p>

<h1 style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #00ccff;">The Secret to the Game is the Butterfly Within</span></h1>
<p><strong>We are experiencing ourselves as a whole.  Where the individual can find a way to express their life purpose within a planet that’s integrating into a whole where there will be a jump in consciousness in each of us as part of the whole system.</strong></p>
<div><span style="color: #00ccff;">Now we are in transition to something new.  And whenever there is change on a biological system it appears as stress.  And when stress occurs in any biological it either is going to have a break down, or a break through.  And during transition everything accelerates, especially toward the end of the transition period.  This is to say that as our problems are accelerating, so are our innovations.  As the despair accelerates, so does the hope and consciousness.  As apparent destruction looms over us, so does the construction of new capacities.   And so we see ourselves in the midst of a quantum jump.  And while we&#8217;re in the middle of an exponential change in our planetary system, we need to be attracted to a higher image of our emerging future because we are becoming universal people.  I mean we are truly <strong>uni*verse or turned into one or turned toward</strong>.  And as we learn to turn toward into one, we also learn to be connected at the heart.  We learn how to connect as a whole citizen in a universal system.  The <strong>Butterfly Within</strong> becomes awakened at its core to express itself more fully.  And one good metaphor that allows us to illustrate this transition is the metaphor of the metamorphosis of the caterpillar into the butterfly.</span></div>
<p><span style="color: #ff0000;">This is a story that comes from Nori Huttle, who really researched this and how the caterpillar emerges into the butterfly.  Her research is scientifically accurate and a very good depiction of an amazing transformation.  As the caterpillar creates its chrysalis, it&#8217;s loaded with too much food.  And within the caterpillar are little imaginal discs.  Now the magic of these imaginal discs is that they carry the new genetic code of the coming butterfly.  The problem the new genetic code faces is that the caterpillar recognizes these disc as foreign and so it tries to kill them.  This is fascinating because if we see this analogy as our time of birth in a planetary system, there were the assassinations of those individuals like JFK, or Robert Kennedy or MLK and Ghandi.  All of these luminaries were holding an image of what was possible of what we could become.  But they were assassinated by the immune system.  Just like within the body of the caterpillar, the first imaginal cells are killed by the immune system.  The miracle is that the program within the imaginal discs is such that they proliferate.  And imaginal cells is such a scientifically wonderful word because the imaginal cell must hold the image of the coming butterfly.  I must hold the image of what is to come regardless of its slim chance of survival as the immune system is still trying to kill them off.  Because as the imaginal disc hold onto the higher image, they begin to proliferate.  They begin to resonate and connect so rapidly that at some point, the immune system of the caterpillar surrenders.  So in other words, the caterpillar gives up and the imaginal cells take that substance of the caterpillar and transforms it into the butterfly.</span></p>
<p>And so that&#8217;s pretty obvious of what the image here is that we&#8217;re experiencing today.  At first, there were only a feew imaginal discs, perhaps they were the great advanced luminaries that founded many of our religions like Jesus.  The were visionary and scientific geniuses throughout the last 6,000 years of recorded history, but most recently their vision of the coming world has proliferated into the core consciousness of our ever-evolving planetary system.  And people are now starting to wake up.  Now the old biological system still tries to stop this in a vain attempt to hold us where we are.  But the coming butterfly&#8217;s image is proliferating because the conditions on earth now are such that we all are actually programmed to take on a planned pattern of our future.</p>
<p><span style="color: #ff0000;">And so every human being who has some impulse or image of a better world, who has some hope within them of a world beyond strife and suffering, is starting to emerge.  These people are the imaginal cells within the body of a caterpillar.  And as they begin to resonate and coalesce, they take us into new creative solutions of an ever-emerging planet.  And we&#8217;re in that stage, of possibly seeing what the composite imaginal cells could make.</span></p>
<p>So the question is what would this image look like if you put all those separate pieces together?  &#8220;An image of this is if you had the fragments of stained glass, beautiful pieces of colored glass separate, you wouldn’t see the picture, but if you put those fragments together, you can see something as beautiful as the rose window of Chartres.  If you put the imaginal cells together, they’re coded with the image of the Butterfly Within.  If you put humans together with their visions, their aspirations, and what they choose to create, you begin to see the outlines of a universal humanity.</p>
<p><span style="color: #00ccff;">And so we learn at the last that the butterfly is a miracle.  But then again the whole process of evolution is a miracle.  It is a mystery.  No matter from what point of view you try to understand it, from the purely scientific, from the purely religious, or from the evolutionary point of view and everything in between we all fall down in awe at the mystery and grandeur of our story, of History.  And as we grow in the image of God, we become what we’ve always been both male and female, Co-Creators of the Divine Operation.  And so during this late transition, everything is speeding up including our own self evolution.  And while innovations may take a long time to manifest, a new economic system, a new education, a new politics, the new person is coming forward much more quickly.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #00ccff;"><a href="http://charlesrstarr.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/Lauras-Butterflyjpg.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-1637" title="Laura's Butterflyjpg" src="http://charlesrstarr.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/Lauras-Butterflyjpg-284x300.jpg" alt="Laura's Butterflyjpg" width="284" height="300" /></a>Laura Johnson is one of those Butterflies.  She carries within her the new genetic-coding of an ever-evolving planet.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #00ccff;">The key now is for every one of us to realize that we are an expression of this process of creation, that our motivation is the energy of that core.  We are made to create, when we connect with each other, when we awaken to the fact that we’re all part of this living body, we can see the infinite possibility within our lifetime, of shifting the energy on this earth from devolution, competition and destruction, to evolution, creativity, connectivity, and a future so magnificent that it will attract us beyond the limits of our imagination, beyond finite competition and beyond war, to a future of literally infinite capacity and potential.</span></p>
<p>This is the journey that we’re on and I look forward to taking this journey with you.  On our journey from here to there, be willing to start from the point where you are!</p>

&#8220;After a while you learn the subtle difference between holding a hand and chaining a soul, and you learn that love doesn&#8217;t mean leaning and company doesn&#8217;t mean security, and you begin to learn that kisses aren&#8217;t contracts and presents aren&#8217;t promises, and you begin to accept your defeats [...]]]></description>

<h1 style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">&#8220;Kisses aren&#8217;t contracts&#8221;</span></h1>
<blockquote><p><em>&#8220;After a while you learn the subtle difference between holding a hand and chaining a soul, and you learn that love doesn&#8217;t mean leaning and company doesn&#8217;t mean security, and you begin to learn that kisses aren&#8217;t contracts and presents aren&#8217;t promises, and you begin to accept your defeats with your head up and your eyes open, with the grace of an adult, not the grief of a child.  You learn to build all your roads on today because tomorrow&#8217;s ground is too uncertain for plans. After a while you learn that even sunshine burns if you get too much.  So, plant your own garden and decorate your own soul, instead of waiting for someone to bring you flowers.  And you learn that you really can endure&#8230; that you really are strong, and you really do have worth.&#8221;  Unknown<br />

<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">It all comes down to a woman and her response to a certain stimuli!  And that&#8217;s <a href="http://thesecrettothegame.com">the Secret to the Game</a><br />
</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #ff0000;">Take a look above and notice something about her.  The SECRET to the GAME is more than meets the eye! </span><span style="color: #ff0000;">The feminine is soft and alluring!  It&#8217;s comforting and peaceful</span><span style="color: #ff0000;">.  The feminine makes it possible for man to rest in his work.  In the 21st Century it&#8217;s going to take both men and women to muster the resources needed to take us to the next level.  This is what I sometimes refer to as Co-CREATION!<br />
</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #ff0000;">Now look at the image below.  It represents the same feminine-essence.  It is a universal illustration because the image below is an art-form, much like the drawings of Aphrodite, Venus or Athena.  It represents pure BEAUTY.  It represents a woman&#8217;s creative process within herself.  The image was originated by Katelynn Zuiderveen.  I wrote the poem accompanying the image of &#8220;Beauty&#8221; to paint the picture of the <em>authentic feminine</em> into words. </span></p>
<p><span style="color: #ff0000;">It&#8217;s my goal to get this image and poem published or recognized.  It&#8217;s my honor to see the rise of the feminine in full partnership with the masculine.  It&#8217;s my honor to help introduce her to the world.  Your essence carries with it the genetic-code to all life&#8217;s mysteries.  My prayer is that we may restore the proper image of the Creator with passion, purpose and courage by becoming what we&#8217;ve always been, Co-Creative spiritual beings both male and female, made in the perfect image of God.  This is my prayer for you, myself and for the world.<br />
</span></p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><a href="http://charlesrstarr.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/Beauty4BW.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-62" title="Beauty from Within" src="http://charlesrstarr.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/Beauty4BW-300x269.jpg" alt="Beauty from Within" width="300" height="269" /></a></p>
<p>What is my name?<br />
My name is Beauty,<br />
I come from within.<br />
There is none other like me,<br />
I am who I am.<br />
There are many imitations of me,<br />
But look deeper and you will see,<br />
The hypocrisy that leaves us empty.<br />
That only I am<br />
Beauty in authenticity.</p>
<p>What is my name?<br />
My name is Forgiveness,<br />
I come from within.<br />
I am a form of spiritual godliness,<br />
I am who I am.<br />
There are many imitations of me,<br />
But look deeper and you will see,<br />
The emotional pain that exists in absence of me.<br />
That only I am<br />
Forgiveness in spiritual maturity.</p>
<p>What is my name?<br />
My name is Sacrifice,<br />
I die to myself for the sake of life<br />
There is none other like me,<br />
I am who I am.<br />
You saw my spirit on Cavalry,<br />
But look deeper and you will see,<br />
That I am proceeded by beauty, forgiveness and humility.<br />
I die to myself, for the sake of others<br />
No one can love you more than me, your mother</p>
<p>What is my name or better yet who am I?<br />
I am the Motherhood of nature,<br />
I come from within.<br />
I have no real nomenclature,<br />
Except that of Love<br />
Which is my spiritual reality<br />
My essence has a redemptive healing quality,<br />
I give birth and bring forth all life<br />
Behold man, I am your wife</p>
<p>My name is Beauty. I come from within.<br />
I am the complement to you, the bride of the masculine.</p>
<p>I am soft, comforting, beautiful, peaceful, welcoming, alluring and the mercy of God. I give you rest. I give you peace. I give you hope. I give you service. I give you kingship. I give you me. I give you love. I am God&#8217;s gift of Himself to the world.</p>
<p>There is more to me than what you see<br />
Look deeper and that&#8217;s where you will find me<br />
Look deeper and you will see<br />
That only I am<br />
Beauty in authenticity.</p>
<p>Sincerely,</p>

<p>So within the mind of God there is a plan.  And that plan is the redemption of mankind.  The world is experiencing a transition into something new.  We are experiencing ourselves as a whole.  Truly, as a &#8216;Uni-Verse&#8217;, where the individual can find a way to express their life purpose in cooperation within a planet that understands its part in a cosmic system.  Yes, I know that we see problems accelerating- but so are the innovations and solutions.  Yes, I know we see despair accelerating- but so is the awareness of new capacities.  And in this transition we will find breakthroughs to new resources that will allow us to advance our world affairs.</p>
<p>And this breakthrough that we find is not a &#8216;gradual&#8217; one where hope to take the next logical step.  This breakthrough is a quantum leap that takes us far beyond an incremental gain.  As the breakdowns of our old planetary system proliferate (ie. religion, democracy, capitalism, gender roles, etc&#8230;), new solutions begin to emerge (ie. spirituality, true representation, cooperative capitalism, co-creation, etc&#8230;).</p>
<p>The emergence of this new planetary system is certainly a quantum leap.  It&#8217;s an explosive jump.  Price Pritchett calls it one of &#8220;exponential gains rather than incremental progress.  You might compare it to multiplying instead of adding.&#8221;  It truly means that everything is speeding up- new eco-systems are emerging.  New education systems, a new politic and a new person is coming forward much more quickly.  Right before our eyes we are observing our self evolution take a geometric progressive leap through a stressful environment.</p>
<p>The key during this time of despair, during this time of apparent destruction, is to realize that this is a time of hope and a time of creation.  The old way of thinking is dying and the Universe is giving birth to doing things a new way.  Therefore, the Divine operation is expanding and seeking fuller expression within every heart and mind here on earth.  That means the onset of something entirely new.  The universe is somehow becoming aware of itself.  And as it&#8217;s own awareness increases, consciousness increases, depth increases, clarity increases and the evolution of evolution itself increases.  You see, we as human beings, think in linear terms.  Like taking baby steps, we tend to systematically move from one stage to the next.  But the Universe thinks in terms of synchronicity where EVERYTHING happens all at once.  This allows for quantum communication, physics and processes to be more readily understood by humanity.  In other words, it brings what was once unknown into the known.</p>
<p>Now let me get back to my main point in this moment there is a plan within the mind of God.  And Marianne Williamson says it best- that this plan is for the healing of our planet; however, God can&#8217;t do anything accept through people.  He can&#8217;t do anything for us that he can&#8217;t do through us.  God is the electricity but we are the lamps.  So God&#8217;s plan is for us to become the people who have the level of wisdom and intelligence necessary so that we may become the people who even if we can discern what it is we need to do, that we will have the maturity to be able to do it.  The TOTALITY of what&#8217;s both being created and destroyed at the same time compels us to all think differently and make a spiritual leap inside ourselves so that we can be the conduits for the quantum leap that has to occur on the planet.</p>
<p>Now I understand that you are all stressed out this morning, afternoon or evening.  But that&#8217;s what a rapid pace of change looks like in the evolutionary process that&#8217;s preparing for a quantum leap.  &#8216;Change&#8217; during a quantum jump shows up as stress on a biological system.  And when a system has an undue amount of stress put on it.  The system will either have a &#8216;breakdown&#8217; or a &#8216;breakthrough&#8217;.  So what seems to be a crisis of breakdown, really may be a crisis of new birth.  To ensure that our planetary system has a breakthrough or new birth, we must understand that it&#8217;s the impact of human activity that will bring us together or tear us apart.  To have a new birth, we must come together in cooperation and that really all depends on YOU.  And so there is only one option to choose here that guarantees our survival .  And that is to come together as a whole, as a universal species, as ONE.  To help create an easy transition, it&#8217;s up to each individual to reclaim his independence and reframe his relationship with our material world so that he can see things for what they really are and then start to understand the greater reality of energy, truth and nature.  We must see ourself as a universal being, gifted with an intellect, living in a physical body, operating as Co-Creators (both male and female) with God.  To really assist God in transitioning into a new birth, we must align ourselves with our HIGHEST vision/potential and then become the manifestation  of that vision.  And this is why I say GOD NEEDS YOUR help; not just some of us, but everyone (men and women).</p>
<p>As we evolve from the old planetary chrysalis into our new metamorphosis of life, we become what we&#8217;ve always been both male and female- Loved and Needed- made in the perfect image of God.  So GOD NEEDS YOUR help today, you are His product, His service, and greatest gift to Himself.  And therefore, call on Him to give you Himself- to give you, YOU.</p>
<p>And that is <a href="http://thesecrettothegame.com">the Secret to the Game</a>.  It&#8217;s more than meets the eye.</p>

<p><span style="color: #0000ff;">Stephanie writes:  <strong>Good Morning <img src='http://charlesrstarr.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> . I was doing my daily prayer and affirmations this am and I have a thought I&#8217;m pondering that I&#8217;d love to discuss with you at a later point.  I think it&#8217;s interesting though.  Here it goes&#8230;</strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #0000ff;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Me:  <strong>Give it to me <img src='http://charlesrstarr.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> ). </strong></span></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #0000ff;"><span style="color: #ff0000;"><span style="color: #0000ff;">Stephanie: <strong>If naturally we just want the freedom to live and be ourselves would it be fair to say that men naturally like to be surrounded and admired by women?  AND so if women loved themselves more and didn&#8217;t &#8220;need&#8221; the love of a man to feel good about herself then the man could be naturally who he is without the threat of jealousy?  I mean truly, men and women could co-habitat naturally becoming who they are and living in harmony.  This is just a thought I want to share with you.  Love to discuss this later.</strong></span></span></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">And so at this point, I&#8217;m thinking&#8230; hmmm?  Very interesting thought coming from a valley girl in a small town.</span> So I wanted to protect her innocence but yet still remain true to Truth.  So this was my answer to her&#8230;</p>
<p><span style="color: #0000ff;"><span style="color: #ff0000;"><span style="color: #0000ff;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Me: <strong>In the scriptures, Jesus agrees with your position.  He says that there is no such thing as marriage in heaven.  Matthew 22:30</strong></span><strong> </strong></span></span></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #0000ff;"><span style="color: #ff0000;"><span style="color: #0000ff;"><span style="color: #000000;">I then go on sharing with her, <strong><span style="color: #ff0000;">that in another and better world there is no such thing as separation and possession.  This other and better world we call heaven.  And in heaven there is only ONENESS with Source which allows us ALL to become an &#8216;other&#8217; to &#8216;each other&#8217;.  In heaven we&#8217;re able to hold and cherish each other&#8217;s reality without judgment, criticism or blame.  In heaven, we are able to co-habitat without disagreement.  And when we hold each other in that space, the &#8216;otherness&#8217; of &#8216;each other&#8217; (ie. Oneness) begins to emerge with clarity.  This is &#8216;connection&#8217; at the deepest levels.  This is wholeness and Love.  This is what God looks like when He breaks Himself (or Herself) into <em>creation</em> both male and female- loved and needed.  In other words, this is Heaven on Earth.</span></strong></span></span></span></span></p>
<p>&#8220;Women are very key and instrumental in this understanding.  Because for the longest time we&#8217;ve seen the masculine project operate.  And we men skewed and confused this concept because there has been certain truths that women seem to be naturally attuned to that we had not considered until now.  It&#8217;s been a harsh lesson because men left to their own devices have not done a good job.  But the feminine is rising and I truly do believe that the future of the human race lies in women.  The masculinization of the thoughts I just shared with you can be very destructive.  But it&#8217;s only when both halves come together in their totality that we have a chance to redeem and restore a proper balance of Life here on earth.&#8221;  Women are the key to this transformation.</p>

<p>What she teaches makes it possible for both men and women to be able to fully<span> express themselves as she expressed herself this morning.  That is why she educates women on the importance of loving themselves.  Her presence, insight and thoughts frees others to become a higher expression of themselves by taking her clients through a step-by-step process of personal transformation.  And that is what <a href="http://www.imageempowering.com/">Image Empowering</a> is all about&#8230; <em>Transforming Your Presence</em>!  I have personally been blessed and inspired by her work and her programs.  Check out her site at </span><img src="file:///Users/charlesstarr/Library/Caches/TemporaryItems/moz-screenshot.png" alt="" /><a href="http://www.imageempowering.com/">http://www.imageempowering.com/</a></p>

<p>I&#8217;m happy to tell you that I&#8217;m teaming up with some of the <a href="http://www.imageempowering.com/">Best Minds</a> on the planet so that we may provide you the best services available.  My goal is that this conversation stimulates thought from the feminine to muster up the resources to take us where we need to be.  So I invite you to share your thoughts by posting a comment below.</p>
