From The Editor
I sit here busily working on the magazine, conversing with people from all over the country and several parts of the world - It is a strange thing.
At all hours of the night and day I find myself at the computer doing emails and working, Often I wonder if people notice the time stamps on my emails I send off during my semi famous midnight mailings. I wonder what people are doing on their end of the computer and sometimes not fully aware of where the person actually is from and what is going on in their lives at the moment.
The past week has been a hardship with the hurricane for many people and I ask for all of us to send a prayer while reading this letter.
I sat here earlier for quite some time trying to create an ad for a new holistic provider, wondering why as hard as I might I couldn't get her web site to link properly. I found out shortly after when I spoke with her that her web site would be down for a couple days while her web server readjusted things - It turns out the company was near the area hit by the hurricane.
Not only does the lady that owns the Web Server Company have to deal with that. - Her pregnant daughter who lives further south and more in the area of the disaster is unaccounted for at the time of this writing - I ask The Kula Family to send some love and prayers out to Debbie Mohamed and her family that they can survive and get thru this experience.
This all brings home greatly to me how interconnected we are in this world and how important that it is we all live in a "Healing Way" If we cannot be there or here for our fellow souls in the spirit of love and healing how can we BE.
Often I am humbled and honored by the emails I get in return from people inquiring on writing articles and offering advice and support or just writing to say thank you. The spirit of the magazine is truly a grass roots approach of community and family and I thank you all for the breath of life you infuse it with.
This month we have created several new features for the magazine including a "Honoring the Light" Memorial section to honor the LIGHT of our loved ones that have passed.
We also have created an online store to offer some (designs of support) for the magazine. If you have designs or art work you would like to offer and to see on our shirts and other items please let us know. During the next few months we will be expanding the selections of items and hope you enjoy them.
We will be creating "journals" or sections of the magazine in future months so that people that are interested in reading certain types of articles can go directly to those sections of the magazines. We appreciate any advice, thoughts or suggestions on what you would like to see here.
We hope you will enjoy the magazine and link us to your own web sites if you have them and or tell your friends about us - so that The Kula Family can continue to grow strong in a solid readership.
We believe in INCLUSION not Exclusion and hope that readers will appreciate the many levels of awareness of our writers as well as the many levels of writing abilities. We hope that all concerned will be able to grow in a healthy manner from taking part in The Kula Experience and are able to take what they need from the experience and leave what does not feel right for them, without judging the experience.
Namaste
Keith J. Chouinard
