… The Shift in Human Nature

You're starting to see integrity change. Awareness recalibrates integrity, and the Human Being who would sit there and take advantage of another Human Being in an old energy would never do it in a new energy. The reason? It will become intuitive, so this is a shift in Human Nature as well, for in the past you have assumed that people take advantage of people first and integrity comes later. That's just ordinary Human nature.

In the past, Human nature expressed within governments worked like this: If you were stronger than the other one, you simply conquered them. If you were strong, it was an invitation to conquer. If you were weak, it was an invitation to be conquered. No one even thought about it. It was the way of things. The bigger you could have your armies, the better they would do when you sent them out to conquer. That's not how you think today. Did you notice?

Any country that thinks this way today will not survive, for humanity has discovered that the world goes far better by putting things together instead of tearing them apart. The new energy puts the weak and strong together in ways that make sense and that have integrity. Take a look at what happened to some of the businesses in this great land (USA). Up to 30 years ago, when you started realizing some of them didn't have integrity, you eliminated them. What happened to the tobacco companies when you realized they were knowingly addicting your children? Today, they still sell their products to less-aware countries, but that will also change.

What did you do a few years ago when you realized that your bankers were actually selling you homes that they knew you couldn't pay for later? They were walking away, smiling greedily, not thinking about the heartbreak that was to follow when a life's dream would be lost. Dear American, you are in a recession. However, this is like when you prune a tree and cut back the branches. When the tree grows back, you've got control and the branches will grow bigger and stronger than they were before, without the greed factor. Then, if you don't like the way it grows back, you'll prune it again! I tell you this because awareness is now in control of big money. It's right before your eyes, what you're doing. But fear often rules. …

Garuda on track to post 2007 profit

The Jakarta Post, Jakarta

After booking Rp 121 billion (around US$14 million) in profit in the first four months of the year, national flag carrier PT Garuda Indonesia is on course to post a profit this year, ending three years of losses and despite this year's Yogyakarta disaster in March.

"This is a good start to the year," Garuda spokesman Pujobroto said in a media statement Saturday.

With the January-April period considered as "low season", the carrier expects an even better performance for the rest of the year," he said.

Last year, Garuda's losses stood at Rp 298.3 billion, narrowing the Rp 688.5 billion booked in 2005.

Pujobroto attributed the profit mostly to an increase in its load factor and number of passengers from the same period last year.

Garuda's load factor rose seven percent from 69 percent, while the number of passengers rose by five percent from 2.684 million in the January-April period last year.

Of the total 28 domestic routes the carrier served during the period, only four experienced losses, the statement said.

As shareholders, the government is considering selling a stake in the carrier, partly to help improve its performance, as part of its privatization program this year.

Garuda has been reportedly in talks with several interested domestic and international investors.

Garuda today boasts 49 aircraft, including a Boeing 737-400 that arrived last week.

Its long-term development plan includes an ordered 25 Boeing 737NGs and 10 Boeing 787 Dreamliners which are expected to join the carrier in 2009, the statement said.
