If anyone has any good websites or books it would be greatly appreciated. Honestly this is solely for my own knowledge. I am a bit of a history buff.

Why is it when one moment you are really into something, and the next moment you lose interest in it even though deep in your brain and heart you are still thinking about it??

Do God, gods, spirits, saints and other unseen forces still have a serious role in anybody's life? these things used to be taken as seriously as life and death-people wouldn't point or look too long at one another for fear of accidentally cursing them, and blasphemy was punished worse than any crime on the planet. No one dared offend spirits and if you spilled salt you always threw a pinch over your left shoulder. Daemons were real and feared and people actually maintained a standard of behavior in order to avoid their wrath. Now witches are just free spirited people, and God exists as an excuse to talk to ourselves. What few people really take their religion seriously seem impractical and annoying to the rest of us. Have we lost magick in the world today?

The movie Gladiator (2000) is based upon history, but many parts are fiction. In the movie, the emporer Marcus Aurelius banned gladiatorial combat for five years. His son Commodus lifted the ban.

Is there any historical evidence to suggest the real Marcus Aurelius banned gladiators, or is this just fiction? Was the ban on gladiators just inside Rome, or all of the Roman Empire?

Please cite any references used.

I dreamt I was going fishing with my lover’s father, they had given my own fishing pole and was preparing to leave when I went outside only to find they had left me. Suddenly a dog from a cross the street came running and barking at me and knocked me down, I yelled angrily at the dog and told him to go home (it was a mutt, gray and white) suddenly from behind me a miniature?? Golden retriever came running to protect me.
Dream #2 I was shopping for groceries at target (even though they don’t sell groceries here, maybe i was predicting a super target LOL) anyhow, I was checking out with my groceries and the bagger had given me the wrong cart, only to discover this at another store (I don’t know why I brought my groceries into another store) I discovered this by observing orange soda, I only buy Dr. Pepper, and a different beer. I became angry and went back to target only to be hassled about renewing my groceries, the guy taking care of me was in good spirits but had other priorities....

I lost off from my finger, or possibly took off my diamond engagement ring almost 6 mo's. ago. I recall thinking about taking it off my left hand and putting it on my right hand because it was somewhat big and my hands seemed to be cold that day and it was bothering me, sliding around on my finger. However; sometime later that day, I realized I didn't have it on either hand and as of yet have still not found it. I'm wondering if a hypnotyst would be able to take me back and be able to discover if I indeed took it off and if so, where I may have put it. Any opinions????

I have a literary agent, who quite frankly I am not all that happy with, but she has been doing whatever it is that she does for the last two months. Suddenly she wants to pick up the pace.

However in order to do so I have to start investing money. This seems a little odd to me but of course this is my First book.

If there is someone out there that knows how this game is played I would like to know if this is a normal practice and perhaps what to expect for here on out.

I would like to write a book. What do i have to do other than sit and write the book?? I mean, what kind of planning should I do before writing it? What other things should i do when writing a book (before, while, after)? Also, how can i come with a good storyline for the book?
