We all are; just living, just experiencing. Not JUST anything! We are living and experiencing life!
Life; a complicated and intricate matrix of sounds, feelings and sights.
Life; a joyous conundrum of mystery and ever expanding awareness.
Look at us!
Look at you!
You, we, us are smack-dab in the middle of it all.
Our senses take it all in and we choose how to view it.
How to respond to it.
We choose to sense it.
We choose to deal with it
And we do all of this extraordinarily well
We are amazing!
We are beautiful!
We are brilliant and luminous
We are a part of the source from which we come from and could be nothing but these things!
We have obstacles to over come but that does not mean we have limitations.
We have barriers to destroy but that does not mean we are destined to be destroyers.
We should be forward in our thinking
Strong in are will
Confident in our hope
And growing in our faith
We are spiritual essence in physical form assuming the name Human but truly our human nature is more than just chance and more than just nurture. It is purposeful and it is chosen. We choose it and we intend it.
Never beginning and never ending we will continue to exist forever beautiful and ever expanding.

Where to begin (to be continued...)
Where do you begin?
You see the world and you say 'I want to fix it, I want to heal it!' The violence, the wars, the hate, the anger.
But where do you start? Where does it start from? A Doctor knows that you can cure the symptoms but if you don't treat the disease then you will never truly be cured. So what is the disease? What is the root of the problem? Where does all this hate and anger stem from and where can I begin to heal it?
These are questions I started asking myself when I was in Junior High School-
From then til now I have adopted only one philosophy on how to live life, to truly live it...
I first accepted that the world is the way it is for a reason. We are here to experience negativity and truly to embrace it. I had to learn to observe the world through the beauty that is as present as the negativity constantly trying to settle around me.
This world is not broken, this world is not sick, this world is as it should be for the purpose of our ever expanding minds.
As souls, as energy in this vast universe we have come into these flimsy, fragile bodies to experience life. We came here to really be able to socialize, to interact in a way that we have never been able to before.
As infinite beings we understand one another because we are apart of one another and that understanding that oneness allows for nothing but a perfect and beautiful manifestation of love. Love which is working together as one, ever expand into ever more evolving consciousness.
Now here on Earth in these finite effigies we are forced to guess what one another is thinking no longer together working for the same goal-we bask in the insecurities and mistrust of our fellow man and for now we continue to do so. But this is why we are here to experience the disconnectedness! Why would we want to do that? Because we want to know what it is like, we want to know how it is, and because we are all in the same frame of mind outside these human forms we all made the conscious decision to do so.
That does not mean every single "person" has lived out "conscious" life (or I should say unconscious life seeing how are true Consciousness is outside these bodies) but those of us who are here now and have come before have made a conscious effort to get here and here is where we stand.
The problems that plague us today you will notice are all if not mostly our fault and to be honest it makes sense to think that we did it on purpose because this was part of the journey we wish to take. Never before in history however have we had such a strong sense that we as people can actually change something if we chose to.
'
So if your still wondering "how can I fix the world" I'm sorry to inform you that you can't change the world per say. You can however change you and your outlook on the world.
Many who read this will raise two important question to what I have just written:
1. Why do I have to change?
2.

Where I'll Stand
You know we're everywhere.And this isn't just about them, or this group of people, this is about me too.
Its about discrimination and about respect.
Its about a right to live and a right to live freely.I will not be afraid to stand here, in these clothes, in this skin, with this hair, hearing this music.
You will not scare me into hiding, out of the sun, into my home, out of my money or out of my job. You will not scare me!
Because I have a right to live, I have a right to be here! Just like you do, but do you see me provoking you to fight because of your dressings, your language, your choice of mind or even something you can't help but be?!
So I will stand here and hear your propaganda and your slander but I will know that no matter what I hear no matter what I feel I will not strike you; I will stand here and hear your opinions as an open-minded individual. I will stand here and take your fear, and your hate, and your anger. But no matter what; here is where I'll stand!
I believe in myself and my ideas, I believe what I believe and I live what I stand for. I am who I am and I proud of who I am. You can blow like wind and you can borrow beneath me like water. But I will stand like a building and float above your anamosity like a boat. Until you prove to me that I am not happy with who I am here is where I'll stand!

Someplace, here and there
Somewhere there is a field full of color. There the green grasses seem to gleam in the sunlight. There are white daisy's and a tree line probably five hundred yards from this point of view. Vast mountians rise beyond the treeline in a haze that shows the mountain's distance.
The sky is blue and the sun is bright and midday. Moving through the grass it rubs against bare skin; lengthy stubs ending in brushes of still rippening seeds, carress caringly as they're passed by. The smell in the air is crisp and fresh as the cold air from the mountians blows down, the overall feeling is comfortable as the sun continues to warm from above.
There is a tender breeze that fills the ear as well as a buzzing of bees as they cultivate their pollen. A tinge of yellow flowers crosses the sight and a vision of other happy times fills the minds eye.
Far away are worries and long ago is any sadness. Here is your escape where nature is nature and God feels close. Feel love and happiness because there is nothing that can harm you here. Here you are, and here you are not. You are apart of the breeze, the grass, the bees. The feelings you feel is your own touch, the sounds that you hear is natures melody, the things you see are chemical cocktails that are neither here nor there.
You have escaped to a place that you are most alive and most inanimate.Here it is impossible to move a hand but completely possible to move those mountains. Here you can create or evolve but always you move forward and never hesitate to take a step. This is where dreams come from, where happiness is found, where technology is innovated, where inspiration comes from. This is your creation and not mine. I am only showing it to you and I hope you will find your way back! Here is all the things that you think you are incapable of; but you are only incapable of them because you believe you are....

Something different, Maybe?
Strength comes from the strangest places sometimes.
Can you ever count on finding it? I'd say no,
Its one of those things that finds you...
But when I need it will it come? I'd say yes,
No matter what strength, always comes to you when you need it. It will always be there to carry you or lift you up. Always be there to tell you its going to get better and things will work out. The problem with strength and any of those positive loving and caring energies is you have to accept it.
Strength will not force you to be happy, you must want it. It will not will you to move, you must want to be carried. It will not pick you up without your permission you must ask it. So you see it is always you in control. If you want to carry on you will and if you want to drag through life hopeless and saddend by any loss it will be your hell to live and your fault your living it.
But don't be afraid because anything done can be undone. Strength, or hope or love or God or whatever you call it is always there; waiting for you to ask, waiting for the permission to intercede into your life. It wants to give you everything you want. If you want something then life knows how to give it to you, but you have to let go and want it, let go and let it happen.
Everything happens for a reason, smoothly and seemlessly you just need to stop guiding your life and let life guide you. Imagine letting go and no matter what always getting what you always wanted. Sounds like heaven on earth to me. You ready to be free?

Knowing
What is the world without inspiration?
What would the universe be without intention?
The idea and feeling of wanting to be more. The force, the drive to become something else.
Would a flower bloom and would a star explode? Would a human learn or an animal hunt?
We (higher vibrationally than you) try to make things as simple as possible. Although there is far less fear and far more understanding then there is on earth. Try to comprehend an idea and instead of constantly using comparisons, comparing one idea to another to another which is much how the brain of a human works. Try to simply know. Start with knowing that you can go against your brains natural comparison process. That process just mention where the brain decodes information processing and sorting it in comparison to other experiences that are similar to past experiences. (walking by a women and thinking of your grandma who always wore a certain perfume)
Doubt you've ever just tried to know something. Don't guess just know, and it doesn't necessarily have to be important, something fun or challenging. Think about something outside your realm of understanding such as gay activism or government or algebra and just know that there is a reason for it. Is it guaranteed to help you understand the world in a new way? Most certainly because when you know something has intention you shed light on that something giving you the opportunity to find out what that reason that intention is and as you understand more and more of these reasons you understand more and more about the environment and thus the universe around you. This is the curiosity that drives innovation the intention that causes inspiration which drives everything that it is around us.
Don't be afraid to just know something. You know a lot more than you give yourself credit for and acknowledging that underlying knowledge is the difference between being afraid of change and welcoming it.

Its not about forgetting, but learning!!
A good friend of mine asked me a questions about why there are some things, like certain memories of people, that we can't get over; that no matter how much we try to forget or get over or push to the back of our minds we never seem to get away from. This was the answer I sent to her, and though many have asked me this question before, it was my hands and not my mind that did the writing so I figured I'd share this with any who wished to know as well.
"We're not meant to forget. We will go many days, nights, years, and lifetimes without forgetting. So go ahead and mark "Try to forget" as not an option. In every experience there is something to gain, perhaps instead of looking at it and frowning on the whole situation; remembering how hard it was to get over, all the good times they had together and how long that took to get over- I would focus on being grateful for the person and what they did for you. Whether it made you realize that the particular personality isn't the kind you find attractive, or how much you as a person would take a certain kind of abuse. Being grateful for everything that takes place in your life is an amazing gift. Over time, because it does take time, gratefulness will blossom into understanding, love, compassion not only for the things you hold dear but also for the things you fear which is everything that has always stood in your way. Its great because it applies to everything, the people you observe, whether on the road or in a park, directly or indirectly, this life is so amazing, so intricate, so delicate, and if you can appreciate the value of life, it (life) will give you exactly what you need and YOU will understand why its giving it to you and how to use it...Thats the secret of the secret. :-D"
