The Truth in Our Hearts...

I watched a movie the other day. A documentary perhaps. Why 'perhaps' a documentary? Well, Michael Moore calls his films "documentaries" so I don't want to place such a broad definition on the term, nor imply things I am not entirely sure of, which is the facts as presented. In this highly political climate there are too many filters in place before I get to absorb what has to suffice for information. So while I am open minded, I am skeptical. Unbiased, yet doubtful. I must test and corroborate what I learn before assimilation takes place. (I know, so 'Borgian")(g)

Oh, yes! The movie... it was "America: Freedom to Fascism" by Arron Russo.

I watched it not knowing what it was about, but I do worry about our Nation's course these days. And I see our children worrying as well. So I was intrigued. I always try to get information from all sides and truth be told, today's American Media does indeed bend to the 'Corporate Winds' more than it heals to its unbiased high purpose. But I digress...

It unsettled me. It was chilling. I think mostly because I am a person of Reason and Logic. ("ha ha" to all my friends who are joking at me for saying that - it's true. I was not an "A" student by 'accident') And I am an Idealist and philosopher like our founding fathers were, and had to be, to seed the soul of our Country. Basically, if true, their (our founding fathers) vision has been seriously corrupted in the worst way by people lacking ethics and filled with a pompous and distorted view of themselves and the world. If so, we are indeed in danger of losing our American (and every soul's) birthright; Freedom... it's More than just another word for nothing left to loose. It is Everything.

But I never take anything at face value without exploring further. Time will tell on this one and I surely hope to God that they are wrong. Or that our children have the souls of our forefathers and not the ones of today's sheep.

By the way... I am a Patriot. I love My Country. I am Proud of our Troops, all over the world. They are the Best. This would not have upset me if I did not truly care...

My resolution:

To begin speaking... to end my silence...

To love and learn... to teach and inspire...

And for all of You, my Hope and Love.

Happy New Year!

P.S. That's my Grandmother with her first car at 18. She hopes to be enjoying many more New Years'... I hope so too!

P.P.S. That goes for you too Mom & Dad!

An interesting article about the Earth, its makeup, and some very nasty things that happened long ago and WILL happen again... and yet the Human race does little to help itself in the "long run". Yes, sooner or later we HAVE to Move away... or perish permanently.

An excerpt from "Geophysics for the common man - pt. 2 Fun with disasters":

"The answer for survival is to get off this damn planet.

Earth is a fine *starter home* but the problems with it are beyond repairing.

It is hostile to life, for all the fact it harbors life.

99.9% of all species that ever lived are extinct.

Environmentalists should *want* us to move industry to the vacuum of space where terrestrial pollution will not occur.

Unlimited energy is available from the Sun until we need to get further away from it to explore.

I want the meek to inherit the Earth.

So the planet can kill them." - from "Dumb Looks Still Free" on June 18, 2006

If it can be said that humans have a Soul, then indeed that is a quality which ALL living things possess.

It is simply not true that having a Soul in some way requires "intelligence" (however that may be measured or defined) or some other uniquely "human" factor. Perhaps people can not accept that other life forms, be they bugs or our next meal, might also have that thing which we call a "Soul".

Fact of the matter is that All living things have "it". We All "look out" through the eyes of the physical form we have and perceive the world to the best of our physical abilities. That some life forms may have limited ability to perceive their existence, much less understand it, does not mean they have no Soul. Nor does that necessarily imply you should not eat other living things... but it Does deserve more thought and even "thanks" to those that perish before us... or For us.

This story has been around for a couple weeks now and we are still waiting for some sort of closure, which I am beginning to doubt will be very satisfactory. That the NYC police can allow such a "run-a-round" to take place and to tacitly say that "finders keepers" applies is dumbfounding and more than a bit disturbing. It is further disturbing that the people who help lower the quality of being Human to "barely above a shit-slinging chimp" are now going to potentially try to sue the guy who tried to bring some semblance to justice to this story.

I spent several years of my youth involved with 4-H and I still think their credo is one to live by...

The 4-H Pledge

"I pledge my Head to clearer thinking,
my Heart to greater loyalty,
my Hands to larger service,
and my Health to better living
. . . for my Club, my community, my country and my world."

Sadly, I don't think a lot of people pay attention to the First part.... the world could seriously use some "clearer thinking" these days.

I am here.

And my soul is soothed..
By the earth and sky and sea.
By the souls that surround me.
And the grey skies that blanket me.

I feel the heart of us all.
And my soul reaches...
Stretches...
Encompasses and touches.
All.

I am
And was meant to Be.

I am here.

Never where do we all go
One day one time one week ago
Today is now a day for sure
Tomorrow yet a dream unsure

I must look now within us all
To see what lies before
For nothing that concedes the time
Is ever there for sure

And now we go about our ways
Different each in every way
But same we are within our minds
Even skins of untold kinds

To all and all the outside thieves
A doorway lies we seek the keys
Forever will our souls transpire
To light the ways within the fire

The spark does fly
A dream can lie
The tear will dry
We all could try.

I came across these words in someone's profile in "Second Life" and they touched me...

DESTINY...

Watch your thoughts; they become words.
Watch your words; they become actions.
Watch your actions; they become habits.
Watch your habits; they become character.
Watch your character; it becomes your destiny.

How true....

We are the Eyes of God.

It is through us All (all living things) that God perceives the Universe.

This is the "point" of "Life" existing at all.

Life is not a random chance event. Life is planned. Deliberate.

We are not unique in the universe (Earth is not the only "living" planet). Rather, the "status quo".

And we "humans" are just a stepping stone in Life's evolution.

I have always tried to BE a "Good" person. Indeed, I have always strived to be the "best" person one could be.

Seriously.

In that pursuit I have constantly searched for the wisdom to "do the right thing" in everything I do, all things considered. And I mean ALL things and not just those personal conundrums found in everyone's day to day life complexities. It may be my most important task.
