In the midst of the unknown certainties...that in which is tolerated but never spoken of...the realization of not "if" but "when"...lies that truth that exists in every one of us....It's   more...deep inside, waiting patiently to reveal and rear its ugly head to look us straight in the eye and tell us without blinking that "someday all of us must die"
c'mon now....are you going to tell me that you have never contemplated your own mortality???
Surely life has thrown you such moments, pains in the deepest part of your spirit...Such moments that have come across your existence as to completely change what you were before that moment in time existed.
Such pains and cries that only your soul and 'god knows, recorded and remembered in time with the rest of the moments of your life.
I sometimes ponder the unspeakable atrocities that we're committed upon the jews in the holocaust.
To imagine even 1 beautiful and precious person, someone who lived and breathed, a person who was living....a person who was "alive"...who smiled and cried and loved....only to have that life taken and ripped away in an moment of obstinate & unspeakable cruelty! "Could that be me?" "Surely not" I think to myself....but I am a fool! As if my life or death is any more significant or meaningful then "anyone" else's!
But here we are, you and I.
Someday we will come upon the hour of our death. It is inevitable.
Everyday...is precious! If you lived everyday as if it we're to be your last...how would you live?
If you didn't believe in any higher being or entity other then ourselves, then I suppose, for you, there would be no consequences for your actions...
but if you believed, even remotely, in the wheel of karma, well then every action would have consequences...
These are indeed strange and wonderous days....be informed!  less

...and Bill Kanengiser? Ralph Machio did pretty well.

In response to DanielofKy's call for wisdom... as if I have any.

I sat down with my guitar the other day and this song came out of nowhere. But as we all know that nothing just magically appears out of nowhere. Our subconscious, the underlying awareness of our higher-self, is always discreetly dropping clues & hints to our biological selves, usually in the guise of our thoughts and creativity, as well as our songs and poems, our paintings and drawings or other strange occurrences such as looking up at the clock on the wall as it displays some extraordinarily 'significant number'. Synchronicity I like to call it...others say that it's just a matter of coincidence. (Looking a little closer at the word coincidence...or to 'coincide':
'coincide':
1. To occupy the same relative position or the same area in space.
2. To happen at the same time or during the same period.
3. To correspond exactly; be identical.
.......anyways....The circumstances surrounding my death. My mortality or immortality as it were...Well this 'coincidental' theme has been popping up a lot lately in my writings, has it is often running through my mind (my mind, that 'interminable chatter' going on in my head which I like to refer to fondly as my 'thoughts'). To die...it's all terribly gloomy and a bit frightening...at 1st anyways. This whole idea of 'shuffling off ones mortal coil' is definitely enough to give me pause. Yes the 'after-life', that journey into the 'unknown country' (I've heard the terrain can be extremely unkind). This is really what it's all about...to me anyways. But let me just state right here and now...for the record. ("Is there a bible or book that I can swear on?")...as I was stating, for the record....I, for one, believe wholeheartedly in the existence of an 'after-life'...or the 'continuation of consciousness'. Furthermore, I believe that KARMA ,this wonderful woman, has given us this 'wheel of time' in which to 'work out' our own fate...(over millenniums as it were). So has to be held responsible for our actions (and intentions)...Ultimately meaning that we are responsible for our selves. For if we are all one, then to inflict hurt upon another is, in essence, to inflict hurt upon our selves, given that someday, we will be held accountable. (If you hurt another, you'll never truly know what it is to feel this pain, until you walk in the shoes of the one who carries this burden of your deed.) This gives credence to The ethic of reciprocity or "The Golden Rule". The fundamental moral principle which simply means "treat others as you would like to be treated." It is arguably the most essential basis for the modern concept of human rights.

*Note: I've been fascinated with the tarot and numerology all of my life. As some of you may know, I was raised as a catholic. Yes, I was an altar boy...(just the term 'altar boy' gives me the creeps) the Latin still sticks with me to this day. So I remember thinking that it was just so naughty to delve into the practices of the occult as a boy. (Nothing like that ole' catholic guilt). The occult is just a word. A word that means "hidden". There's nothing inherently wrong with occult knowledge. In fact I think I was even the more fascinated because this particular knowledge was considered 'forbidden'.
Now...over time, certain truths are beginning to emerge. This so called 'forbidden knowledge' is just another example of the how the church forcibly silenced any attempts of advancement or progress of knowledge or ideas. Time and time again our greatest minds and achievers were persecuted for their efforts. Why is that? I think we all know.
As far as the phenomenon of 'religion' and 'war' goes.... Words-words-wo  less

The Power of Consciousness
Quantum Physics has shown us...proven to us, that we, you and I....are capable of enormous power & potential.
It is truly incredible.
The old ways   more...are dying...though the minds that are hanging on to these rituals will not let go without a fight...still the old ways are becoming quite archaic. Like it or not...we are evolving.
The science of torsion fields, hyper-dimensional physics and anti-gravity has allowed us to tap into an endless source of energy. A discovery that unbelievably dates back over a century.
Tesla tapped into this 'endless source of energy'...but as soon as his then financier, JP Morgan, caught wind of Tesla's plans of sharing this discovery with the world... Tesla was abruptly brought to a screeching halt. Imagine a world of 'free energy'. No more dependent on oil or any other type of fuel for energy. You know the 'powers that be' just couldn't let this happen....and they still cannot.
But there is still an even more fascinating aspect to all of this...'you and I' are a part of this 'energy'...not separate!!!
It has shown us that we are all inner-connected. Now this by no means is a new idea...we are all familiar with the teachings of the ancients. But now...science has shown us a type of energy that has previously gone unrecognized. Invisible to the eye within the 3rd dimension, there is a quantum field that links all matter. Everything is, was and will always be connected.
Here is how Gregg Braden (author of "The Divine Matrix") puts it "There is something 'out there', the matrix of an energy that connects any one thing with everything else in the universe. This connective field accounts for the unexpected results of these experiments. The DNA in our bodies gives us access to the energy that connects our universe, and emotion is the key to tapping in to the field." In other words, our DNA influences matter. (This isn't just another 'positive affirmation speech').
Our thoughts or consciousness influence matter and energy. Love and fear can be measured by waves/particles...this also is documented.
We create our own reality. What we think...we will become.
The idea of tapping into 'group consciousness', putting our minds together as One, to create a reality....really has no bounds.
We must try.
There is so much positive information out there, and of course there is much negative. Yes it is a necessity for us to become 'awakened' to the fact that we have been mislead & distracted from gaining information & knowledge that would in essence...'set us free'. But today it does me no good whatsoever to worry about the fear of what will happen tomorrow.
This is in fact a question of great debate amongst the masses.
Should we 'prepare' for what seems to be the 'inevitable'. The collapse of the economy, the perpetual attack on our freedoms and liberties??? It comes down to a question of balance.
Living in fear will do nothing but spread more fear...look into the eyes of your children as you speak.
There is a solution...and it isn't based on a fairy tale of mythological hype. Just what is real...in this holographic universe?
There is so much information out there...empower yourself and take in this knowledge. Why do you think the Nazi's & the church have a history of burning books and suppressing knowledge.
But we must move on from trying to 'pursue' these 'elite ones' who are in charge. In fact we must do all we can to forgive them. We must not become 'stuck' in this perpetual fear that they are working 24/7 to create.

I must do what I have to do...to stay awake and informed....but I must keep the balance. I must not live in fear.
This is what they want, this is their intention. Their design.
Let us wake up to our own extraordinary power  less
