Tales of the Crystal Sailor Log 1 This story is a combination of factual places and sailing experiences. Located in the Santa Barbara Island group off the California coast. During a passage from San Diego to Ventura, California I was struck with an epiphany concerning collecting and doing research on the rare Lemurian Seed Crystals from Brazil. Later I am to learn we are to build a lemurian Grid on a Vortex I must locate on Santa Cruz, Island. The adventure builds as we must locate an Earthkeeper Crystal that is necessary to open Portal to the next dimension. This will be fought over by Alien's and Men in Black. We are assisted in our quest by Atlantean Warriors and the might of the Marine Mammals that are taking a place along side "Terrians" for the opportunity to pass through this Portal before the 2012 Earth Shift. Later I am told to locate a Vortex so a subsequent "Portal" can be opened to the next dimension. This will allow passage of people that have the name of the sacred Earth Keeper Crystal. This can only be accomplished by changing raising one's vibrational rate through meditation or accepting Compassion as a new way of life. Pursued by Men in Black and later Alien who has been mining Santa Cruz Island for thousands of years with genetically enhanced survivors of Atlantis. We have to deal with injured Blue Whales from ships propellers, help from new brotherhood of Marine Mammals. All the while gathering people from across the world to assist in creating the necessary Crystal Grid that will allow the opening of the Portal once the Earth Keeper Grid is found. New alliances formed with a group called "Mothers of Mammals" that try to shield us from M.I.B's while in our home port. Coming in direct contact with captain of Submarine that has almost caused us to lose our boat twice. Working with survivors of Atlantis that shape shift to Telepathic Dolphins who align with us in our Quest. Learning we have a much larger family on Earth than we ever knew. Fighting for our survival from hostile Alien that want control of Portal for their own "storage" miners before the Dec. 21, 2012 Earth Shift. Geographic locations are real, sailing terminology is explain as is the folklore of the sacred Lemurian Seed Crystals. Crystals are real, boat is real, people are real, only segments are fantasy to make story entertaining.

Just what are thinking errors? Is it a thinking error to disbelieve what someone else believes? Is it a thinking error to misjudge someone's character? Is it a thinking error to challenge convention? Just what do I mean when I subtitle my book, "Some Common Thinking Errors and What to Do About Them"?

We're thinking all the time. Some of that thinking tends to bring about outcomes that differ from our intentions or wishes with accompanying frustration and disappointment. Maybe you're seeking to lose a few pounds and have discovered that wishing isn't enough. Maybe you've tried diets and other programs to lose some weight yet always find yourself defeated when you regain the pounds later. There is probably a thinking error at the root. Fix the thinking error and amazingly, the pounds drop like rain.

Every living creature makes mistakes. By "mistakes" I mean choices resulting in disappointment, frustration, missteps, danger, and death rather than the intended or expected outcome. Humans are no exception. We make mistakes - loads of them

We will continue to make mistakes. That is the course of life. The intent of this book is to help you perhaps lessen the number of mistakes and make your wishes come true more often in the way you wish them to come true.

I don't intend to tell you the truth about life or to support any belief or belief system; only to investigate and challenge some common thinking errors. If you find after clearing these thinking errors that you are more supported in your beliefs, great I hope you will find the courage to challenge your thinking and investigate your beliefs with an open mind and clear thinking processes.
