Cry Into the Wind: A True Story by Othello BachCry into the Wind is a spellbinding story of triumph over incredible tragedy, and an inspirational guide for those struggling to overcome the effects of abuse. Abject poverty, a house fire that claimed her mother's life, the loneliness of an orphanage where she was separated from her siblings… and so much more … yet nothing was able to break Othello Bach's spirit. She couldn't read until the eighth grade, yet sold her first novel to Avon Books at the age of 27. She is the author off 17 published books and has 35 recorded songs by Broadway, TV, and Hollywood stars Joel Grey, Tammy Grimes, and Sandy Duncan.“Othello Bach is a force. And this book proves it.” -- Joel Grey “Cry into the Wind” is a page-turner from beginning to end. It is a compelling story of survival and an inspiring testament to the strength of the human spirit and raw determination -- Dave Pelzer, author of “A Child Called It.”“As illustrator of four of Othello's books, I'm sure that her hilariously inventive take on life must have helped her overcome many obstacles.” -- Sandy Huffaker, nationally syndicated political cartoonist, fine artist and illustrator.Othello is a best selling multi-genre author of numerous books which range in scope and variety from suspense novels to children's books to non-fiction "How-to" books. Her memoir "Cry into the Wind," chronicles an abusive childhood, including 11 years in an orphanage. Although a non-reader until the eighth grade, she wrote and sold her first novel to Avon Books when she was 22. Othello often composes music and lyrics to accompany her children's stories, and celebrities Joel Grey, Tammy Grimes and Sandy Duncan have recorded her books and songs. She is a motivational speaker who loves to share "the tools" that helped her overcome an abusive past.https://www.amazon.com/Cry-Into-Wind-True-Story/dp/1522890521/ref=sr_1_1?crid=1GHZGGPHF878E&keywords=Cry+Into+the+Wind%3A+A+True+Story&qid=1662839358&sprefix=cry+into+the+wind+a+true+story%2Caps%2C249&sr=8-1https://www.othellobach.com/http://www.bluefunkbroadcasting.com/root/twia/obachec.mp3   

Othello Bach (best-selling author, musical composer, certified hypnotherapist and seminary graduate) talks about changing our focus for 2021.

Almost all religions teach some version of Good Vs. Evil, and imply the source is outside us. It is not. The source is our beliefs. We see the world through our beliefs, and consequently, see the possibility of good and evil everywhere. We do not see godliness in each other. Jesus asked, “How can you love God whom you have not seen when you do not love your brother whom you have seen?”

Most of us acknowledge that success doesn’t “just happen.” We know it takes hard work, determination, and sometimes, years of dedication. However, when we have a structured plan—a map that keeps us on the right path, headed in the right direction, we feel considerably more confident that we’ll reach our goal.

It’s generally accepted that some people are more creative than others. We think of creativity as a gift assigned to the arts—music, writing, painting, sculpting, etc. We think of Mozart, Michelangelo, and our Shakespeare. Unfortunately, limiting creativity to these categories, is to ignore the truth of our being. We are all equally creative, and creating all the effects we experience. For instance, every thought creates emotion, emotion prompts belief, belief prompts action, and action creates results—or effects.

We all have favorite thoughts. If we ask someone, “What’s your favorite thing to think about,” we’ll most likely hear something like, “Oh, it’s lying on the beach… soaking up sun, and listening to waves rush ashore.” In other words, we’ll likely recount a pleasant event, a daydream, hope, or fantasy. It never occurs to us that these sweet reveries and fantasies are not our “favorite” thoughts. Our favorites are those we repeatedly bring to mind, and all too often are painful memories.

Have you ever made New Year’s Resolutions? If so, did you continue until you met your goal? If you did, congratulations! If not, well, you have plenty of company. However, when we make resolutions but fail to honor them, we lose respect for ourselves. The reason is quite simple, but too often overlooked.

Guilt arises from judgement and is the ugliest of emotions. It also prompts many other ugly emotions, such as fear, resentment, and anger. However, it is merely a signal, a “warning” that we should stop judging ourselves and others or we’ll make ourselves miserable and sick. However, that’s rarely our response. We are far more likely to absorb it deeply and return to it often.

It has been said (and accepted as “true”) that those who forget history are destined to repeat it. If we pay attention to Christ’s teaching, however, we learn that as long as we remember the past, we are more likely to repeat it.

Episode 50: The Recipe, a short story by Othello Bach.

Episode 49: The Great Piece of String. A short story by Othello Bach.

Episode 48: The Power Of The Present - Part 1. The past and the future are thieves that rob us of peace, love, health, prosperity and happiness. Therefore, it is essential we understand the nature of these thieves so we can catch them, toss them out, and enjoy the present.

Episode 47: From Invisible to Visible. We know that “things spiritual” are not visible. Spiritual concepts and laws cannot be seen with the body’s eyes. We accept that God’s Laws are Divine Ideas and because they are ideas, they cannot be seen. In truth, all laws, including those made by man are merely ideas. Man-made laws are enforced by imposing physical penalties on those who refuse to honor the idea and limit their behavior accordingly.

Episode 46: Eternal Presence. Divine ideas and thoughts stand behind all human awareness, seeking to be recognized through the doorway of the mind. The pulse of Christ is the core of every living soul, and the Presence of God waits patiently for recognition. We must become aware that this Oneness between the seen and the unseen already exists, and there is nothing we have to “do” to make it happen. It is fully operational and merely awaits our acceptance. We can make ourselves aware of God’s indwelling presence if we pause to sense It several times a day.

Episode 45: Where Are We Going?. Have you ever heard a sermon on the scripture “Heaven and earth will pass away but my words will last forever … or a sermon that explains where heaven is going? Why would it go anywhere when that’s where everyone wants to go? Will it pass away before we get there? Is it already gone? How can we know?

Episode 44: Our Imperfect Perfection.

Episode 43: Try A Little Logic. It’s obvious we do not understand that what’s true in the physical world is true in the spiritual world. For instance, we know opposites cannot coexist. Hot and cold, wet and dry, love and hate, peace and war are never in the same place simultaneously. Yet, strangely, we try to have faith in opposing concepts, such as good and evil, right and wrong, salvation and condemnation, and a Loving God and a ruthless God who is willing to torture his children forever.

Episode 42: Letter From Shelly. Othello replies to a letter from one of her listeners.

Episode 41: Accepting the Lie (a short story by Othello Bach).

Episode 40: Our Bored and Restless Minds. Our Mind never sleeps because it resides within the Unseen Power that we call God—where we and everything else reside. Consciousness sleeps and often even doses when it thinks it’s awake, but our Mind simply waits patiently for us to awaken to the benefits of Its power.

Episode 39: Willing Participants. For this podcast Othello talks about participating willingly in your life.

Episode 38: Picture It. For this podcast Othello talks about imagining and picturing positive circumstances as a way to enhance your life.

Episode 37: Our Other Name. Have you noticed that we have two first names? We have our earthly family name and our Spiritual family name. Our spiritual family name is mentioned several times in the Scriptures, in both, the Old and New Testaments. Our spiritual name is the same as God’s, which is “I Am.”

Episode 36: Thinking. For this podcast Othello discusses the process of thinking, which might be more complex than you think.

Episode 35: The Recipe, (a short story by Othello Bach). The moral of the story - Our greatest treasure is hidden within our minds; forget it—and regret it. 

Episode 34: Playing God. For centuries, artists have tried to capture the image of God. Scripture tells us that God is Love. Love is neither feminine nor masculine, yet we can’t imagine anything without form, so we have imagined Love, our Creator, as a man with a body. Unable to imagine anything unlike us, we’ve concluded that Love responds to us the same way we respond to each other. In other words, we have created God in our image.

Episode 33: Recovering From Trauma. When we have been stunned by trauma, we often feel that we’ll never recover. Any devastating experience can convince us that we are forever changed… limited in our ability to succeed and be happy. So, how do we recover from trauma and restore confidence, hopes and dreams?

Episode 32: The Great Piece of String. A short story by by Othello Bach, the 1st in a series.

Episode 31: Our Fear of Differences. There are variations throughout all species. Each has specific DNA and develops accordingly, always striving to fulfill its purpose and reach its full potential. Some grow quickly, some slowly, in different seasons, different conditions, and each in its own “DNA determined” way. All variations of life appear to accept this arrangement, except humans. We believe that we have greater intelligence than “lower” forms of life, but this is one of those instances when that seems questionable.

Episode 30: What's Meant to Be. The Divine Mind has already established what is meant to be. We are one of those decisions. It created us in Its image, and left earthly decisions to us. So what decisions are we wanting the Divine to make that we can’t make? Is our hesitancy prompted by our fear of making a mistake? Do we feel guilty for making decisions that satisfy our desires? Is it an attempt to ‘turn everything over “to God?” Or have we forgotten that we have minds, and were created in His image? Or… do we not believe that?

Episode 29: Finding and Losing Love. It’s easy to fall in love, and oh, so painful to lose it. In this episode Othello shares perspectives of the process and insights for gaining a clearer understanding.

Episode 28: Opposing Beliefs Part 2. Othello follows up last weeks podcast, which dealt with our sacred but opposing beliefs, the belief in two false gods as well as the God of Love and all Creation.

Episode 27: Opposing Beliefs Part 1. We’ve been taught that God is perfect, and we were created in His image. If that’s true, why do we believe we are imperfect? Can a perfect Creator create something imperfect and not lose His perfection in the process?

Episode 26: Searching For The Expected. We often overlook things that aren’t where we believe they “should” be… or where we expect them to be. When that happens, we frequently decide the thing is lost, and give up our search.

Episode 25: Ignorance Or Evil. Ignorance is literally killing us. Submerged in misunderstanding we attack each other with thoughts, words, and deeds, and without knowing it, simultaneously attack ourselves.

Episode 24: Our Separated Self. Our seeming separation is an illusion created by the belief that we are separated from, and unlike the Intelligence that created all things. Intertwined with this belief is the illusion of past and future. In reality, there is only the eternal present—the tiny moment between blinks of our eyes.

Episode 23: Design Your Success. We often have dreams and goals that seem to continually escape our grasp. Whether we want peace of mind… a better job… or to lose 40 pounds, we can have what we want if we pay close attention, carefully craft our thinking, and adjust our vocabulary and actions to reach our goal. This podcast will offer tips for succeeding and achieving your goals.

Episode 22: Affirmations. Othello talks about the positive power of affirmations.

Episode 21: The Precious Present. What’s so great about the present? Well, just as a tragic or terrifying movie creates a lingering dark mood it also blinds us to the immediate beauty around us. While dwelling on the dark, heavy feeling, we don’t notice the beauty—and sometimes the opportunity—we’ve been hoping for. The power of thought is always present. Each of us has the ability to open our minds to new possibilities… new ideas… and create hope and expectation, or… rob us of hope and create despair.

Episode 20: Controlling Our Responses. In this episode Othello discusses the need of understanding why we respond to certain situations. Once we know why we can then attain better control and respond more positively to the situation.

Episode 19: Our Unseen Cause. We live in a confused and confusing world. We identify with our body’s needs and desires, then try to reconcile our “wants” with our beliefs, rarely taking into consideration the totality of our being— including our Unseen Cause.

Episode 18: Respecting The Unseen. This episode examines things which are spiritual and cannot be seen with the physical eye... such as thoughts, ideas, concepts, emotions, beliefs, desires, hopes, dreams, dreads, and expectations.
