Words in the Wind




 December 1st. 2022….A great day for a fresh start.

As I leaf thru my Bible & listen to one of my favorite CD’s…Feather on the Wind by Golana…at 5:30 EST in the morning… I search for words sent in thoughts, dreams & prayers.  At times the message brings me strength & other times it brings tears to my eyes.  But, to be strong in your grief & use it for a better good….is a great gift from God to have.

A short message for today:

Some definitions are in order to clear mass confusion.

Simple words to explain difficult realities that have been clouded over time.  These definitions are from the Book of Life….words to the contrary are from books of  death…you decide what to believe, you live & die with your words & actions…let them be of Life.

God: The Creator, The Master Time Keeper, His love for us is unbound, He created us thru Grace, but do not underestimate His wrath, it is as powerful as His creations, because He can destroy what He has created in the flash of a milli-second in time.

Jesus: Love embodied, a self-less Leader, God in the physical realm….a teacher who taught by both word & action…because that is the only way to prove unconditional Love. Oh & one minor but yet major detail…He’s the only one to ever conquer death.

Holy Spirit: the Spirit of God who is alive in the hearts & minds of the Faithful.  The Spirit is wisdom & understanding, which is needed in a confusing world.  The Holy Spirit is strong in some, weak in others & totally absent from the wicked.

This is the Holy Trinity…God the Father, Jesus the Son & the Holy Spirit…alive today in the true Faithful.

We are lucky as a planet to have such Faith in numbers, it is not always the case.  The more I write, the more I realize I don’t really have to, because it’s all been said before….When Judgement Days come as Stevie Nicks sings,  “Sometimes it’s a bitch & sometimes it’s a breeze”…..the less Faith, the harder…the more Faith the easier…bitch or breeze…you decide in your own God given free will.

It is often said…”one man can not change the world” these are not my words, because I don’t believe them.   History proves different, men of great good & horrid evil have & continue to change this world everyday.

But real change, the change I pray for is beyond any one man to accomplish.  He would need lots of help from the Faithful & from the Devine Trinity.

But one man has that already…& when the Son of God returns, the sons of men will rejoice or be cast away into pits of fire. 

I, we, us & them are all sons of men & women…but we have the ability to use the Holy Spirit to understand the Book of Life…before this world succumbs to death & destruction.   

The new world order that demon seeded men speak & aspire to today, one created by men to elevate them to some higher level…is doomed to fail because it is demon seeded, created by man to satisfy his power, greed & lust. They manipulate the media as they rely on their words to support their unfaithful actions. 

The only true New World Order will happen when Christ returns with the Wrath of God in one hand &  Love in the other hand…while He uses the power of the Spirit to deliver both Heavenly & hellish justice.

The Word of God, the Book of Life, your Bible holds the truth in these words.  So many references one wonders where to start…..well here’s a few that the Lord shared with me….very recently:

2nd Chronicles 15….Ezekiel 15…. Luke 15

John 15…..1st Corinthians 15….Acts 15

Proverbs 15 & Psalm 15….✨✝️πŸ•ŠπŸŒ»πŸπŸ¦‰πŸ™πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ

Stop the Divide; A Fresh Start

 


The divide in our country must be filled with some sense of common ground or we will continue to decline into a hollowed out shell of a once great nation.

But where does this common ground start?  It can not be political, that’s one of the biggest reasons for the divide.  It can not be religious, that is another controversial subject that divides us.  No, this common ground has to come from a neutral perspective.

So, to establish a common ground we have to start from a common place.  Our past history is another subject of debate & the reasons for our current decline have already been set in motion.  So where to start?  

How bout we start fresh….from right this second in time.  If we did that, what would you do differently?  Many of the  decisions made in the past control our lives.  Laws established for the common good & protection of society control how we act.  Taken a step further our Constitution establishes how we are governed.  

But a problem exists in that our laws assume innocent until proven guilty, yet many are convicted by a media driven society & many more languish to prove their innocence.  We can not start from the premise that we are all equal….because we’re not.  We may be equal in the eyes of the law, as the scales are held by blind justice….but if you put enough cash on one side of the scales they’ll tip in your favor.  Hardly equitable to someone who can’t bail out & can’t afford proper legal representation.  In six months their life is a shambles & many never recover.  So we are not equal, if you have money & resources you’ll fare much better than the majority of us living paycheck to paycheck.  But we can not fault the man who has worked hard & built his wealth….the fault lies in the judicial system.  

We may all have the same inalienable rights to life, liberty & the pursuit of happiness….but we have to agree we are not equal, no 2 people are, not even twins….so let’s make that the starting point.  We’re all different, we all have unique qualities, we all have our inherent weaknesses & strengths, but even with all our differences we can still consider those differences & work together to make a fair & moral society.

So, if we agree we are all different & respect those differences, that’s a start.  But there is a problem.  Seems as though some of those differences are contrary to a God fearing existence.  There are those in our society today that feel their views, their agendas are the only correct ones & all others are somehow less important to consider to a point of censorship & exclusion.  But there is something they don’t realize.

This country was founded by white Christian men.  The Caucasian race, the majority of which are Christian today are the majority in this country.  As is the case in all societies, the majority is often considered oppressive and any & all of the minorities feel oppressed.  However, lately small segments of minorities…in race, ideals & morality…have very loud & angry voices & violent actions.  I guess they feel if they scream, pout, destroy & disrupt enough of our daily lives we’ll succumb to their demented desires…WRONG!!!

As a starting point we must realize that any diverse society will have majority / minority clashes…it’s how we handle these issues that determine the strength of our country moving forward.  If you feel you have to yell at me to get your point across…sorry, you’ve already lost.  If you feel you have to destroy our national monuments, you’ve already lost.  If you feel you have to rewrite history, you will fail, for truth always prevails.  If you feel you must disrupt society to establish your ideals, your distractions are known & useless against a faithful majority.

You see what these demon seeded despots fail to realize is that a growing number of the various minorities have grown tired of the godless ideals, hypocrisy, violence & deceitful rhetoric their various groups portray. So, they eventually side with the majority.  You see it playing out in our elections, ones that are not manipulated anyway, with increased percentages of minorities joining the ranks of  family & country first ideals; voting with the realities they see, rather than the false promises, lies & failure riddled policies of their proposed leaders who have taken granted of their votes for far, far too long.  Change is good, change is coming.

It has to… we can not continue down this slippery slope of decreased moralities at the whim of a few.  Given their way this country is doomed to fail….but their way has already lost, it dies a destiny of death.

Whereas the Faithful, will live a destiny of Love.

Let’s start fresh, the faithful are many & the lost can be found, but only by their will & choice.  Continue in your faith or begin a new, make the right choice & feel what the Spirit can show & do for you.  Hopefully, it will close a gaping divide that if left to grow, could swallow a country whole. πŸŒ»πŸπŸ¦‰πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΈπŸ¦…⚖️✨

 
Let your actions be the result of His Word…
Let their words… be the result of your actions.

Planting Seeds

A good friend who has known me for close to 10 years asked me a question the other day over the phone.  He asked me why thoughts of a woman who basically did him wrong for years, at one time they were engaged, keep haunting him, at times distracting him by putting ideas in his head that are contrary to what his real life’s goals & ambitions are.  I gave him several thoughts, mainly how if you’re with someone that long they become a part of you & memories may fade but they’re always there.  But, this is what I should’ve said….

Yesterday I reposted The Root of Evil where I made the case that it is not money or sex….but satan & his misguided minions.  They are pure & uncensored evil which can influence our decisions.  This repost also included the writing My Enemy is in a Me…where I use symbolism & story telling to shed light on how we are our own worst enemy.  Here’s how evil works…

As you know we are born into a physical life that God has granted us our own free will.  We have choices we make every minute of every day.  These choices originate from where??? Our minds.  Nothing is decided or done without thought first, even subconscious thought.  It only takes a flash of a milli-second for our minds to react & cause the rest of our body to be put into action.  Even a simple task of walking requires thought, then action.  Many of our daily actions are second nature or simple muscle movement….then there’s the others that involve deeper thought, planning, action & reaction.

These are the more complex thoughts that often enter our thought patterns by outside forces & worldly influences.  Here’s an example: You are driving to a friends house who expects you there at 8 PM… on the way you see a sign for a 2 for 1 drink special at a bar…you gotta little time so even though it’s not in your plan you stop in for the 2fer, next thing you know 2 turns to 4 then 6 drinks & you miss your 8 PM deadline & your friend leaves without you, an opportunity lost forever because of worldly distractions & planted seeds.

Where do these thought seeds come from? Well, the devil uses them to deceive you…God uses them to show you the truth.   We have free will, neither God or the devil can make you do anything…but they can bombard you with thought seeds to either help or hinder you in your life’s journey.  Those that are successful in their journey separate the truth from the lies, make sound decisions and are often rewarded with blessings beyond belief.  Those that are deceived by the thoughts of evil, hate & harm suffer consequences in both this physical world as well as the spiritual realm.

So, I hope & pray that if you look back on your own life you can pick out those instances that you made decisions that were life changing, hopefully the majority were good, but none of us are perfect and it can be very easy to succumb to deceptive thoughts.

Thoughts planted in our woke hours or in our dreams.  We have free will…free to choose…free to cast out unwanted & deceptive thoughts….free to capture, cherish & capitalize on pure & loving thoughts.

It is often difficult to separate & determine the two, but as you cast out demon thoughts & embellish Godly thoughts…you’ll find the demon seeds will be less frequent as they search for weaker & younger souls.

No one knows the thoughts of a killer, but be assured the result was first planted by demon seeds in their head.  We see mass shootings & crimes against children & other awful things in our society today.  They are all the works of demon seeds.  

We see miracles & wonders every day, these are the results of Godly seeds.  These are the thoughts & actions that as you grow in Faith you will learn to trust & better understand.  

So my dear friend to further answer your question…ignore & cast out those unwanted thoughts, they are just trying to distract you.   Look around & replace them with thoughts of nature & good will, which I know you are trying to do.  Stay true to those Heavenly sent seeds and your spirit will shine & grow in Faith.

We all have choices….to grow a beautiful garden with Godly seeds, flowers, trees & Heavenly scents…or demon seeds resulting in thorns, weeds & death.

The choice is easy for most, but not all on this planet have the true Faith in God…but someday soon, we won’t need to worry bout demon seeds no more, cuz they’ll all be burning & rotting in hell for eternity.

Have a great day & remember you can plant seeds in the lives of those around you too…just make sure they’re good ones.   

Live in His Peace & His Love will surround you.

A Continuous Saga


Life is a mystery, well for me it is anyway.

For me to make that statement alone by itself, is an effort.  An effort that is too often lost in today’s world.

Yesterday on Facebook, I said I planned to get some work as a ranch hand, as being a ranch hand working with horses & other animals in the bounties of nature has always been a dream.  Dreams become desires & desires become realities if & only if effort is applied.  And, efforts are wasted if prayer is not involved.  I knew the whole time I wrote it, on Facebook, it was a waste of time.  Why???  Because life…is a mystery.

I have learned so many lessons in my 61 years, that I can’t keep track, so I don’t.  Instead, I utilize those lessons, those experiences, those memories to dictate my initial actions….& then reactions afterwards.

Life is a mystery because we don’t know what tomorrow, next week, or 5 years from now will bring.  One of the hardest lessons to learn is that you, me, we, us & them, don’t really know what will happen one second from now.  Think about that….do you really, really know if your heart will keep beating or stop beating, one second from now….you don’t.  So, life is a mystery.  A mystery you, me, we & us…were born to solve. I left them out, because they have no desire to pursue anything other than their own ill-gotten gains.

Life in itself is one big hard lesson, well for most of us anyway.  Most of those that are spoon fed with a golden spoon from birth have little to no concept of struggle.  Well sir, struggles are part of our life lessons. Nothing, nothing is worth anything without struggle, because to get out of that strangle hold requires what??  That’s right you’re getting it…..effort, desire & prayer.

Life is a mystery, but I’ll solve one for you now.  I am writing this at this very second in time.  Right now it’s 11/2/2022  11:20 PM EST, & I’m writing this now, not fourteen years ago.  Life is a mystery & here’s another one…I did not realize until about an hour ago that I hadn’t done a blog post since October 11, 2022.

That post is called “Untold Story”  and it was written for a reason, a reason 40 years ago I would not even conceived let alone understood.  There are folks that read Untold Story & don’t understand it, yes it does have over tones of being a mystery in itself, but there are folks who can read between my lines & feel the meaning of its effort.  An effort conceived in struggle, resulting in desire that required effort & prayer to solve.  

The lesson I learned long ago was not to overly concern & question myself over my actions & reactions. And why is that??? I feel some of you know, but others gave up long ago.  For those that live in Faith we know the answer to the mystery of the Untold Story, because they too have seen glimpses, heard whispers & felt bits & pieces of the story it relates to.  Then there are others who have no clues & probably never will.

So…I ask you fine lady, what is the premise, the inspiration, the mystery behind the Untold Story?  An answer seems hard to come by, especially for those outside the Faith.  Here are my recent thoughts of distant memories derived from struggle, desire, effort & prayer over the past fourteen years of my life….a life that is a mystery to even some in my own family, where I have friends who know me better than that.

The mystery I said I would solve this very moment in time is really pretty dang simple…here it is…..Why, after posting on my blog pretty regularly & having increased energy levels & clarity of thought, why did I go 3 weeks without posting anything on this blog?

You may not think it is a life mystery, but it is to those out there waiting for me to blog post something, I know you’re out there, & I thank you for that.  Nothing was supposed to be posted on this blog, until this writing, however long it took to develop & when that was as you know in God’s timing, not mine.

You see, well at least I pray you do now or at some point see, the mystery of the Untold Story is not in my words….it’s in my two pictures.  All the pictures in & on this blog were taken by me.  I do not re-copy, photo shop or edit any of them, cuz that’s not what I saw or seen when I took the pic.  There are two pictures, one at the beginning & one at the end of the Untold Story, & that is where the mystery resides; because life is a mystery, a mystery for you, me, we & us to solve.

There is only one other person on this planet that sees what I see in the first pic, after a little help from little ‘ol me.  I did that intentionally so that I had a least one witness that I shared part of this mystery with in case I met some kind of untimely demise; after all I am an under cover observer, not a detective, just an observer, but that’s a whole nuther mystery.

If you haven’t by now, please take a break, cuz I’m going too, & look back at those two pictures at the beginning & end of the previous post to this one, dated October 11, 2022, called Untold Story. 

Both the pics are recent, the first pic I call Brain Cloud…not Bryan Cloud, Brain Cloud & was taken at the entrance area of a marina in Apollo Beach, Florida bout 6 weeks ago, the second is called Tree Thinker…it was taken out my back patio to the West around three weeks ago if I remember right.  The video on & in this post just happened, it really did as I was writing this very paragraph.   God’s timing amazes me daily, lately even more so.  And that my friends solves one of the biggest questions mankind has….Who, What & Where is God…you ready for it??

Well good sir & fine lady I see you brought your children too, thank you for including your most precious possession & they who hold the future.  You see it’s quite simple, all you had to do was read a blog post of mine from 2008 I believe that answers this very question. 

Who, what & where is God?  He is Father Time…He has a hour glass in one hand and a stop watch in the other, among other things, like the purse strings to this nation & this Earth. Where is God…He’s everywhere & anywhere at any time & at any place He chooses.  If you wanna know what He looks like that’s kinda hard to explain, but check out some of the pics from the new NASA Space Telescope & you might form your own perceptions & ideas.

As far as the mysteries in the two pics mentioned & visible in & on Untold Story….the first pic Brain Cloud has at least four maybe five cloud faces  easily distinguishable & another live face in the tree.  All the faces are looking to the left…gotta keep an eye on those snake like lefties, they like to throw curve balls AKA lies & distractions. 

The first face which is the pics namesake is the large face looking upward, the top of the palm tree is where his brain is.  The second face is a demon face low right, third face is midway up the tree & the fourth is a woman’s face with her eye top right.  There’s a possible fifth face between the demon & the woman.  And last but certainly not least, although some would have you believe otherwise, the animal kingdom is represented by the Osprey in the palm tree.  The clouds hold the mysteries of the ancients & the currents, the Osprey is there as a reality check…unedited & in real time.

The second picture Tree Thinker is looking right with his head bowed & Jupiter in line at a 45 off his fore head.  He’s in deep thought & prayer & just wants to be free & left alone to continue his thoughts & prayers.

So there you have a few mysteries to ponder, as I have, but they are not a wonder to me anymore since I wandered into God’s Garden, which is all around us & asked a few questions to help my life’s journey, which as far back as I can remember has been dedicated to solving any of life’s mysteries I can…& pass on what I find.  And, what I’ve found along my wanderment is amazing, so amazing it’s hard to express, but I do my best, that’s all any of us can do & that’s all God asks of us in return for His great favor on our Nation.

As a final example the SkyView pic of Libra on & in the previous FB post was taken while writing this by accident as I was using SkyViews compass to set bearings & this view popped up with the compass at just the right second in time, under the floor at the bottom of the Earth from where I’m sitting.  But that’s the beauty of technology… it can sees things we can’t…even though it’s all been here since the beginning of this Earths time…God’s Time.

Now for the climax of this story, the proof of Gods timing that can not be denied… we have owls here, big brown & horned owls…that make strange sounds at night.  I’ve heard them here in parts of Florida that I have hunted & traveled & lived for a good portion of my 61 years.  I’ve had experiences when hunting & walking & just living that I have wrote about & told people about, but nothing like what happened a little while ago.

So I’ve been writing this while most everyone has been sleeping, with my goal to finish by 7 AM….God is good and has thrown me little bits of encouragement thru not only this writing but thru my whole life.  Owls represent wisdom to us modern & simple folk, it’s in our history & stories.  The brown owl with its silent flight, keen & superb eye sight, talons to grab & hold & a beak to rip & tear, are the forests observers, hunters, counselors & councilors.  It takes wisdom to be a good therapist & decision maker  & owls represent wisdom for the animal kingdom.

So, I walk outside for a smoke during this writing and what does God do..??  There’s at least two owls in the same area of tress as Tree Thinker….matter of fact I know it’s dark but if you look closely you can make out Tree Thinker, that’s not what’s important..it’s their night sounds that I captured & it was only by the Grace & timing of who???? You got it, our wonderful Father Time.  I have never been this close to them making these sounds, but I did have one land in a tree bout 14 feet away from me once while hunting…but that’s a whole nuther story.  Happy Days & Peaceful Nights My Friends….BAS 6:56 AM EST 11/3/2022   ThorsDay.

Untold Story

 


An untold story here, that’s  been told a 1000 times there.  Take a journey with your mind, where you’ll meet others in kind.

You are here because you are not there, the journey has been long, rest easy…take a chair.

The story begins as another one ends…the road less traveled has many bends.  Signals you may send & receive, but in the end your free will depends.

As you decipher the path to take, hold fast your convictions & don’t forsake.

You must trust in the unseen realm, many think it’s the devils helm.  But rest assured it’s not & do not slumber or your soul… hell will surely plunder.

I am convinced within our minds holds the key, to one day unravel all the mysteries to see.  This does not mean in man I glory, for we are just part of a never ending story.

Souls are born again & agains & every time a new story begins.  How else for us to learn all the lessons of life, we try & try to do better thru all the strife.

And when that ‘ol serpent comes calling, we gear up in His armor & go balling.  The spirits of Faith you’ve felt before, they reside over an undefeated score.

That is the part of the story that can only be told as it unfolds. That is why it’s untold here, but a 1000 times there.

If you are at a fork in the road, know that one way holds the Prince of Peace & the other the tormented toad.  If you think you are just flesh & bone, I pray for you that one night your soul will atone.

Go in Peace & Love will follow.  ✨

A Reluctant Message


 I like to read short stories & books.  I love to listen to a song with a story.  I recently re-read the Book of Jonah.  It’s only four short chapters & we all know (or should know) the story of Jonah & the whale.

If you read thru the 4 chapters of course the main theme is Jonah doesn’t listen to Gods message & is punished by being swallowed by a whale.  He’s spit out 3 days later due to whale indigestion.  After this horrible experience he obeys Gods message.  

That’s the main theme, but is it the main message?  It is not…the main message is that Jonah was reluctant to follow Gods charge to him to go to the people of Nineveh & prophesize their destruction due to their continued wickedness, because he already knew the eventual outcome of his message.

  Jonah tells us in verse 4:2….he knew God “was gracious & compassionate, slow to anger & filled with unfailing love.”  He knew that if he stuck his neck out & told the people of Nineveh of their impeding destruction….he may be made to look the fool when nothing happens.

But something did happen.  Something very key to Nineveh not being destroyed.  In chapter 3 we see the people, from least to greatest, go without food & humble themselves in sack cloth to show their remorse & sorrow.  Even the king of Nineveh fast & shed his royal robes & donned sack cloth, declaring “everyone must turn from their evil ways & stop all their violence….pray earnestly to God & He may yet have pity & not destroy us”.  This was key to convincing the people the truth Jonah’s message held.

And that’s what happened.  God seen their remorse & their turn from evil & had mercy for Nineveh & spared its destruction.  So even though Jonah felt God set him up, the people actually saved themselves, Jonah was just a messenger.  Had the king & the people not believed the message, their destruction was certain.

So….to put a modern spin on this….what if at some point we had indisputable proof of Gods existence & His message was directed at our world?  How many people would still turn their backs on living proof, historical documentation & the promise of salvation thru eternity, just so they could be some kind of something here & now, but not later?  How many people would turn from their evil ways, humble themselves, pray for forgiveness & acknowledge Gods existence?  And how many would rejoice in knowing their faith in God…has finally been answered?

Evil has coursed in man’s veins since we left God’s Garden, which we did of our own free will.  Evil is, so evil does.  Evil knows it has no tomorrow so it does it’s damage today.  When cornered evil strikes, when confused evil hides & when caught evil lies.  However, evil fades when faced with the truth, justice, wisdom & love.  It fades into the darkness seeking weaker spirits.

All around us we see Gods message, we just have to open our hearts & minds to hear & see it.  For when we do our spirit & soul is enriched & we become as one body in harmony with the peace only God can provide.

Jonah was a reluctant messenger, but he eventually delivered a message that saved countless lives, but it was only because someone listened & someone prayed…& that is the moral of Jonah’s story.

Be blessed in all you do today & tomorrow.  

Share your faith, it may save someone’s life.

A Musical Love Story



 

Long, long ago before time was kept by mechanical hands, it was kept by the suns shadow & the moons glow.  Time was different then, life was simple & what is now modern man was just beginning his timeless journey.  

I have dreamt of such times.  When all you had or needed was provided by nature & your bare hands.  Survival was your physical priority, but there were also magical moments of discovery & loves emotions dominated the warm days & cool nights.

In one of these dreams a man & a woman were walking on the beach.  Holding hands & rubbing shoulders they strolled the sand when he saw something within his reach.

Wading into the crystal clear water he knelt down & picked up the pinkish ivory like conch sea shell.  It was old, almost ancient, & wore to a smooth texture with the front horn area slightly broken one could tell.

Admiring it he gently cleaned the sand & removed a couple of old mullosk remains from the horn.  Now a hollow chamber existed thru the conch shell; he gave it to his mate as a token of love once torn.

She held it with both hands & placed a subtle kiss on the shattered face of the conch shells broken horn as a gesture of thanks.  As she did she happened to exhale ever so slightly & a low deep resonating sound was born.

They both looked at each other & she tried the kiss again with her breath held until she exhaled & the first musical conch sea shell note this Earth ever heard, was heard. 🐚✨

Where It Started



 

So here I sit where I started so long ago.  What have I achieved since then?  I guess not much in the eyes of man.   

Forty five years ago at 16 I hitch hiked past this very spot on my way to new adventures.  It’s been quite the journey & I have little in the material world to show for it.

But I have more than anything this materialistic world can provide.  As the cars & trucks pass on the inter-state, I sit in mine & look thru a fountain at the hustle & bustle of a week end day.  

None of this was here 45 years ago except the hi-way.  Much has changed, but the trees that are left remind me of those first steps I took on my road of life.

A road that led me to the thoroughbred horse track in Cincinnati, then the track in Detroit, then at 17 I joined the U.S. Navy…and my eyes opened to a whole new world.

From there the road split in many directions; I often took a wrong turn, but I always seemed to get back on track & feel my best days lay ahead.  

It is said all roads lead back to the same place and as I sit here where I started so long ago….I can testify to that truth.  Have a superb weekend.  Be Safe & Be Healthy…🐝.

A Revealing, An Oath & A Promise


 Ok so I’ve bared a lot of my experiences, observations, thoughts & opinions on this blog.  Two hundred & ninety or so posts, but only a few reading this know much if anything about me.

Since the past doesn’t really matter, I won’t bore you with that, but if a blog is a diary of sorts, what’s my entry for today?

Well, today I am 61 years old & help care for my 85 year old mother who has ALS, aka…Lou Gehrig’s disease.  I liquidated or stored most of my belongings and moved from North Carolina to her home here in Florida.  I have been here for 3 months or so now.

The community we live in has a 36 hole golf course, several pools, a conference center, tennis courts, work out areas, wilderness trails, a private school, lakes & ponds with fish & skies with hawks & osprey, etc, etc.

They are building 100’s & 100’s of homes in this corridor northeast of Tampa.  Life is good for many folks around here, something I have not always been accustomed too.

My days for the most part are free, but I care for my mother after dinner thru the morning….yep, I got the night watch.  But you know what….it keeps me outta trouble & I have wonderful natural settings & wildlife all around me & my buddy Roscoe to talk too.


There is a fox den in the hedges, all kinds of water fowl, ospreys, split tails, brown & golden hawks in the air & trees.  With bass in the ponds, hogs & deer in the forest, squirrels & bunnies in the yard it’s a beautiful place to go for a stroll.  At night we’re just far enough from the big city lights to enjoy star filled nights in between the often rainless thunder & lightning storms.

Having my days free has helped me get reacquainted with this area.  My mother has owned this house for over 40 years; so yeah I got some roots & memories of this area.  My options are very open.  I can reactivate my LLC…Sensory Solutions & Systems….,I can do side work, I can work from home, or I could continue to watch for fox & hawks & see what tomorrow brings.

The Revealing….

One thing very few people know about me is that 14 years or so ago I took an online course & registration to become a Minister.  I partly did it just to see if I could qualify & pass….which I did & did.  I am not ordained or certified in any particular religion, nor do I want to be, it was more a personal & spiritual goal to accomplish.  For years, over 30 really, I have felt God’s calling.  But, I was scared.  Not of God…but scared of my fellow men & women and of being wrong.  The consequences of false prophecy & worship far outweigh the earthly benefits some cater to. 

I have a lot of non- traditional Spiritual views.  They are Spiritual views because they are not religious views.  I am independent & non-denominational.  Religion is ceremony, religion is not Church.  The Church stands on its own, because it is God’s Temple, Christ’s Body & the Spirits presence is there….if it is a Church first & foremost, rather than a religion by name, label, deed & belief, which is secondary to its main mission which is bringing the Words & Ways of our Lord to the world.

In so many ways religion has clouded the basic spiritual concepts, traditions & realities of Truth, that the average person is left dazed & confused & ultimately disappointed in “religion”.

Church is a Holy place for praise & fellowship with God & each other thru the Holy Spirit in the Lord’s House.  

Any religion is a belief of one kind or another that may or may not be worthy of being attached to any Church as defined in the previous paragraph.  With religion brings a label, a stigma…True & Free Spirituality has no labels, so it can never be stigmatized.

Unlike so many in our society who chase fame & fortune by bargaining with the devil, I made a pact with God…& I’ll close this post with that pact.

The Oath….

I said, God….I’m scared.  I’m scared that this is a false calling.  If it is & I ever write, say or do anything that would mislead another person away from You & Your teachings….or if I am or ever become something other than a messenger of Your Words & Deeds….then strike my words & strike me down.

The Promise….

An answer was given to me that said two words & two words only…. “I Promise”.

Those Words & that Oath are sealed in prayer & my words are still here on this blog & in my daily actions & I am still alive to enjoy foxes at night & hawks in the day.  To this day I hold to that Oath & that Promise because of all He has & continues to reveal to me.

Praise God, Love Jesus & call on the Spirit & your life will begin to be what you’ve always felt you could be.

The Heart of a Leader





 We all have creative & talented abilities….it’s just a matter of identifying them, nourishing them & utilizing them.  I can do a lot of things, some were very hard to realize, others were more easy & natural but in either case  I never knew I could do anything until I tried.

It’s true our lives are trial & error, but our lives are also hard work & accomplishment.  I play golf recreationally & have always been amazed at the ability of the professionals.  We see them in competition making awesome shots, but what we don’t see is the hours & hours of practice everyday to make that shot.  Throwing & kicking is somewhat natural, swinging a golf club at a small ball is not.  Such is life, it’s what you identify & work at that defines your talents.

But there’s another aspect of being creative & talented at something you do….it’s called heart.   It’s not just the want to create or succeed, it’s the desire to create or do something you love.  We’ve all heard the phrase, “he’s got real heart” when talking about athletes, well the same is true for artists, writers & musicians.

Another example, a sovereign nation being attacked by a foreign invader.  The invaders look at it as a job, the ones under attack look at it as survival.  Both may have the same abilities but whose heart is really in the fight? Not the invaders & that’s why they lose so often.  The heart drives the will & the will to survive is strong in all of us when pressed.  The invaders just wanna go back to their homes, while they destroy someone else’s.

In this world there are two types of leaders…Commanders & Conquerers.  Commanders utilize their best assets to accomplish a better life for their nation.  Conquerers just wanna make their life & legacy better regardless of the pain & suffering they cause.

So I ask you, what good does it do to conquer a nation just to have them hate you & conspire against you?  I can tell you…it does no good.  On the other hand a leader who commands with compassion will work to form allies & strengthen their charge.

Today as we watch a golf match on TV, we also see war on our screens.  Our country is blessed to not be at all out war right now with another nation.  But it seems as though we are at some kinda war internally, which emboldens our enemies.  You can not win a war against anybody….if you’re at war with yourself.

I have a simple request…identify & utilize your talents to better yourself & the world you live in.  You know why I requested that?  Because I was requested the same thing many years ago.  I have tried to accomplish this request & feel I have certainly bettered myself, but the world around me still lies in tatters.  

This blog is part of my efforts to better the world around me…I hope & pray I’ve wrote something somewhere that speaks to you, encourages you, uplifts you spiritually & calms you emotionally.  If I have done that for someone at sometime than I have accomplished the request asked of me.  

But, the watch never stops & the watch never ends, so the request is more of a challenge to be a Commander, rather than a Conquerer.  To lead from the front, rally those in the trenches & take the ultimate risk….rather than bark orders from the back, sip unwarranted champagne & sit in relative comfort.

True leadership is not always found with those who have  the most to gain, but rather the most to lose.  True leaders are not always the smartest or the strongest in any lot….but they always are the ones with the biggest heart.   ✨

Slums in Paradise

 


Ever had only five dollars to your name with no other sure outcome of income coming your way?  Ever been so hungry you’d eat sticks & grass? Ever been so tired you could fall asleep under a busy overpass?  Ever been so thirsty you didn’t care what the water looked like?  Ever been so hot & sweaty you couldn’t stand your own stench? Ever been down to your last meal, but you split it with your buddy? Ever been so close to death all you could think about was one more breath?  I wonder, I really wonder how many in their privileged & pampered world could answer yes to even one of those questions.  

There are quite a few new readers to this blog & I thank you for spending some time here.  Those that know me know I have been homeless several times in my life, some by choice, some by chance & some for cause, but every time I learned something that even though I couldn’t understand then….I’m grateful for now.

I left home at 16, the first, but certainly not the last time I hit the hi-way for greener destinations.  At this stage of my life I am far, far from that feeling of uneasiness & unknowing.  Because thru all those trials & tribulations, thru all the tears & triumph’s, I realize they had purpose.  

I can answer yes to all those questions in the 1st paragraph, some with multiple yes’s.  But, I am far, far from those early days of feeling homeless, hungry, thirsty, tired & out of breath.  You see for even if I find myself in troubled times again…..I will never feel hapless, hopeless & homeless because I have confidence, extreme confidence in my faith in God, my knowledge & abilities as well as the kindness & generosity of most of my fellow man kind.

The homeless situation in this country has gotten way outta hand.  And my opinions & knowledge born of experience & research are documented thruout various posts in this blog, but those thoughts & feelings changed a bit yesterday as I saw a side of homelessness I hadn’t seen before.

I went for a walk & found several homeless camps, all unoccupied at the time, but none the less every bit active encampments.  One in particular was one of the main camps.  Set back off the road a bit in the woods there were 6 tents and so much trash it looked more like a dump site rather than a camp site.  I will have to go back & get some pics to justify my “dump site” comment but you’ve seen the news reports, videos & pictures….this was a site I never seen when I was on my solitary travels.

Today many of the homeless are homeless cause they wanna be.  There’s a segment of useless, ungrateful, lazy, theiving, drug & alcohol abusing scum bags that dominate the news cycles & what we see, hear & think about the homeless.  And then there’s the silent majority who are just trying to find their way & survive another night.

The degenerates that are wreaking havoc on the streets of the homeless today are however a product of our society.  We cannot cast blame on someone who has been exposed to our own shameless greed & deeds. But, we all make our choices in life & just like the privileged businessman who throws out his Starbucks cup on the side of the road, so the ungrateful vagabond sleeps in his dump site.  They are both the same internally only the external perception is different…both contribute to the fasad of our Nation.

There are simple explanations & solutions to our most misunderstood & complex issues.  But keep this thought in mind in your daily quests & life’s journey… Before you cast ridicule on the less fortunate, take heed of your own fortune & don’t take it for granted, your life can change in so many ways in an instant & it may be you out there one day scraping for your next meal.

But just as important….to those less fortunate out there…don’t give the privileged the ability & the reason to despise you…take care of what little house you have even if it’s just a back pack…clean up yourself & clean up after yourself.  Don’t expect me to give you food for your belly & then clean up your crap afterwards.  

Let’s work this out & work together to strengthen & clean up  our Nation….from the classiest country clubs to the meanest darkest streets…so different, yet so same. What good does it do to drive to the Hollywood Hills when you gotta go through slums to get there?  The whole drive should be safe & clean, but we gotta lotta work to do….and it’s more than any one person can possibly do alone.

The goodness in our country will prevail if we hold to Gods teachings, our faith in a better world to come & approach our issues from compassion & understanding.  The evil in this world will be destroyed & fade into distant memory so it can not pollute our recent thoughts.  It’s just a matter of when, not if.

I pray for a better world, I know it is at hand & I hope you’re along for its glorious ride.  Be safe & be grateful.  πŸ™✝️πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΈπŸ¦…πŸ˜ŽπŸ

Wildflowers




If you got a moment, which I assume you do cuz you’re here, I’d like to discuss my feelings on a controversial word (of sorts) in our society today.


That word is…..prayer.

What do you think of when you hear, read or say the word prayer?  Until today I thought prayer was reserved for my personal conversation with God, Jesus, the Holy Spirit….the Holy Trinity.  But in, and as part of my conversations….I ask questions.

Rarely, really rarely….have I ever got immediate responses to my questions.  But as you know…patience is a virtue.  So answers develop and some have yet to be or may never be answered.  But today I got one and I cried about it during & afterwards a bit & maybe you’ll understand why if I can explain this properly….I will certainly try.

Prayer can & should be more than religious ceremony.  Prayer can & should be shared & joined in togetherness to strengthen its resolve. So we bow our heads & pray to the Trinity….but what do we do if we wanna talk to someone besides the Holy Trinity, say our deceased grand-father…is that prayer?  What is it then? It’s not a sΓ©ance, I just wanna talk to gramps…let ‘em know I’m thinking about him & need some advice….even if it takes years to get it.   Its not prayer in the strict sense of course, you’re not worshipping gramps, you’re not idolizing him, he’s just another soul your spirit can reach out to….so what is it?   I call it spiritual meditation.   I guess in a sense you’re praying to gramps cuz he’s passed from this Earth, but the word prayer, I feel, should be reserved for the Trinity.

So why the controversy?  Well if I told you that I talk to spirits & souls you’d roll your eyes.  If I said, I’m praying to Jesus & my gramps, you’d think that’s cool (I hope).  

So the answer moment…..Mid day I’m putting some CD’s on to listen to and I put in disk 2 of Tom Pettys The Best of Everything & the first track is “Wildflowers”.   I have numerous issues & reasons to pray as we all do & many blessings to be thankful for, but as the words to that song played out in that moment…. I looked to the sky and said in my meditation…..Hey Tom, thanks for a wonderful song & by the way…what would you do about???...I checked myself….& thru my tear filled eyes I wondered, was that wrong?  And instantly a word popped in my head…..No.

He didn’t answer me, the lyrics & his song did…from His Spirit thru his spirit.  In that moment I realized it’s ok to ask for help, it doesn’t always have to involve the Trinity.  Hey, they need a break now & then from all those prayer requests.  So spread the spiritual wealth a bit thru spiritual meditation & the strict religious zealots that think it’s a sacrilege….well, they’re just wrong about that.

So here’s the real point I’m trying to make.  How much time do you spend a day in prayer?  How much time do you spend in spiritual meditation?  I’ll hazard a guess that a few minutes a day in prayer be bout average, I dunno.  Ok, how bout you expand your quiet moments a bit more and pick out 2 or 3 role models in your life, alive or dead, famous or not & just have a personal private conversation, you’re not worshipping….you’re talking.

If I tell someone I prayed for 2 hours today, they’d think man that dudes got issues.  If I say I meditated for 2 hours today they’d think, man where do you find the time, wish I could do that, good for you.

Thus the controversy….prayer is meditation to the Trinity, meditation can be a spiritual tool you can use to guide you on your life’s journey.  Jesus is not the only one who can help you, there’s lots of Guardian Angels out there…& there’s no controversy in reaching out to them in good or bad times, or anytime in your private moments.  

If you spend an extra few minutes a day reaching out to your heroes thru spiritual meditation I believe you’ll find it can have both emotional & calming benefits & there is no sacrilege cuz there’s no idolization.

Tom Petty is one of my heroes, his lyrics & music are prophetic & I know his spirit touched millions of his fans…so why not say Howdy now & then….I know he’d appreciate it…he’s not learning to fly anymore, he’s got his wings for sure.  But…it gets lonely sometimes just cruising the clouds.

Thank you Tom & the Heartbreaker band members & back stagers who brought his music to us….it’s part of our history & I for one am grateful I was alive & could share in a bit of his story.

As the moon rises on another night, I long to be free in a mountain side full of wildflowers, looking out to sea.

Have a spectacular day, say a prayer for Love. ✝️

Familiar Faces


 Are you, who you are? Am I, who I am?

Are we, who is? Are they, who we think they are?

Do you see, what I see?  If you don’t, I can help.

Maybe if you see, like I see….

You can be, all you wanna be.

Conversation…face to face.  It seems to be a lost art with some folks.  So many have retreated into a safe zone physically, personally & spiritually because of the looming perceived & realistic threats out there.  The explosion of available media out there adds to the hysteria caused by non stop violence & misdeeds.

Be that as it is, when was the last time you talked for more than 2 minutes with a total stranger?  Not the check out guy at the auto parts store, or the clerk at the supermarket, but a total stranger in a less than controlled environment, like a parking lot or sidewalk.

Many of you can’t & that’s understandable with all the stuff we see on the news going on.  But you know….there is a world out there bigger & better than the television, computer screen or phone.

So conversation….what would make you comfortable if approached by a perceived total stranger?  Here’s a few possible answers:

1) Facial recognition   2) Voice familiarity

3) perceived as friendly  4) Dressed ok

5) not smelling like booze 6) Clear eyed & well spoken

The first two are most important & key to any….any conversation.  Facial expressions & vocal tone set the stage for the whole interaction, given the other 4 are acceptable.

I had 5 such interactions today & neither myself or the other 5 folks ever felt threatened or anything like that….and I was the stranger.  We all learned a bit about each other & our unique situations and if we ever meet again, we may forget a name, but faces & voices seem to stick in our memories.

So I ask you….again….what makes you comfortable with a stranger?

Here’s a possible answer…..you don’t know, you can’t explain or express it.  It’s  just a feeling, a gut check, a mental note of easiness with this other person, or something that clicks your friend or foe sensors in a good friendly way.  That’s a great answer really.  Because all those answers & there’s seven listed, are good answers.  But the 1st answer really sums up the other 6….you just don’t really know.

May I introduce a foreign concept to you?  You don’t need to know….that’s right you don’t know what you don’t know, so don’t fake it.  If it is destined for you to meet & spend time with someone, even for 2 minutes, & you felt at ease…..how cool is that!  You know why…because it was meant to be & was possibly set in motion long before you ever thought about it….consciously.  Really you say….how’s that?

Well, if you frequent this blog you will know my feelings, thoughts & dare I say facts….about our dreams & what happens or can happen in the deepness of the night, when your mind is free to wander, as well as being wandered into.  Think about it, if you dreamt meeting someone, then that familiar face/voice shows up for unknown reasons, you may “subconsciously” be at ease with the person.  The same holds true when we find ourselves in unfamiliar territory….anything of familiarity can bring comfort to a troubled mind.

And….if you can connect with the mind of anybody thru real face to face conversation maybe, just maybe, you can share a piece of each others soul & spirit.  Brings a whole new meaning to “Deja Vu” doesn’t it…thanks CSN&Y for a great album & classic rock song bout that by the way.  

You see God doesn’t always work in mysterious ways….sometimes it’s just a harmless dream about a conversation.

Have a great evening, should be a nice moon along with other things to help guide even the hungry & homeless to a comfortable destination. Bee safe 🐝

Oh, that’s my pet dragon…we’ll talk later 🦎

A Rough Day






 I don’t ever question my faith…..but I certainly question my ability to live up to what I have faith in.  We all have our ups & downs, good & bad days, today was a rough day.  It doesn’t matter who, what, where, or why…all I know is I had a wonderful day yesterday & today not so much.

So what do I do about it….I can’t change the past, but I can try to make each minute better as I strive for a better future.  Often hard to do when we dwell on the past.  So how to make tomorrow better?

Strengthen your faith. Remember your past, live in the present & strive for a better future with faith in God.

I don’t know where my faith is going to take me, but this day is over & tomorrow is Sonday & I for one look forward to a better day, 

As I write with no one to talk to but distant thoughts & recent memories I remember my own words that said in the Lord there’s always someone to talk to.  So I shut my eyes & talk to God, I open my eyes & read His Words, then I look & listen to understand the deeper meanings.

As my attitude changes for the better, my spirit feels stronger, my outlook on things changes & I realize my rough day was nothing, absolutely nothing compared to so many in this world.

We are so blessed to live in the U.S.A..  You talk to anyone…anyone with open eyes who has seen some of the world outside our borders & they will tell you this.

Talk to the right people who have been there & you’ll hear horror stories that are common place in some countries & cultures.  In this country some folks demand openly their right to self mutilization because of their gender confusion….in other countries you’d be hung or beheaded for being gay.  And yet these very same “oppressed” individuals in this country will cheer the very ideologicies of these world order dictators.

We are as a whole characterized by our words & actions.  We are as a whole a product of our environment.   The old saying “garbage in equals garbage out” has taken hold of a portion of our society.  

Yesterday was a rough day….because of the environment that was created by unscheduled events.  It set into motion a change in five different peoples plans for the day….which as you can imagine did not set the day off to a good start…which was around 7AM yesterday.  This strained environment lasted thru the day & eventually upset the day of a few other folks as well.  Fortunately no punches were thrown & we all got thru the day…..& now is the morning of a new day.




I am reminded of the promises of yesterday.

I am reminded of the lessons I learned long ago.

I am grateful to have traveled this far…..safely.

You are the key to your happiness.  No matter how scrambled your thoughts…prioritize & organize them….and you’ll begin to see what’s really important in this life.  God help us all if we ever as a whole lose our faith….Stand strong & proud America….there’s always a new day…..Have a spectacular SonDayπŸ™✝️

Freedom of Life





 The Soldier marches thru time

The Sailor sails unknown seas

The Airman watches from on high

The Marine stands the watch

The Merchant Marine carries a heavy load 

& the Coast Guard patrols the shallows

All to guard a sacred freedom.  A freedom that so many take for granted.  But the true cost of freedom lies in the lands, seas & skies of those forgotten by those same who take sacrifice for granted.

Those of us who cherish freedom, real freedom, know the difference.  For it’s not just freedom of choice….oh no it’s more than that….it’s freedom of life.  Too many in this country have not had their life, their basic freedom to live, ever challenged.  They are riding on the coat tails of American patriots & heroes as they put down the very ideals that formed, built & sustained this country.  Now as they chase their fantasy utopia they’re creating a realistic dystopia.

You see while some worry about trivial cultural nonsense & race baiting….real threats to our freedom of life are at stake.  To name  a     few….China/Taiwan….Russia/ Ukraine….Israel/ Iran….cartels/U.S. Borders….all of these issues can & do effect our national security, while our Congress passes bills to combat something we can’t control…the weather, instead of tax dollars to defend your real freedom of life as well as those threatened by world order dictators around the globe.  

Your freedom of life is dependent on those Soldiers, Sailors, Airman, Marines, Merchants & Guardsmen being able to properly defend that freedom.  Better wake up America & spend your precious dollars wisely or your freedom of life could disappear before your very eyes & in your lifetime.  πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ

A Stage Set Before Heaven (revised)



 Suffer not thru the longing light of the day.  Cry not thru the deep darkness of the night.  Bring your cares to the Lord’s open table.  Seat yourself in the chair of the righteous & cast away your worries on His Loving  Heart & feel the sensation of a child’s spirit.

This early morning as I look out at the stars last twinkle & the days fresh dew I once again realize I am just another soul in flesh…in waiting.

I feel like an actor at times living out an unknown script.  Before me is the movie set, but the lines are yet to be written.  You Lord are the writer & producer, but You leave it up to us to direct.  Surround us with a good cast & crew so that we can carry out the mission of the destiny before us.

Let my worries flow away like flood waters after the storm.  Bring down Your cleansing tears of forgiveness & redemption on lost & wretched souls.  Those that do ….will, those that don’t….won’t.  We are all truly at Your mercy for direction out of this hate filled world & deliverance to Your promised Heaven on Earth.

Bless us this day with a new attitude & make our spirits sing.  Open our hearts to a world of friendship & understanding instead of hate & confusion.

I am surrounded by a 1000 locks, but there is only one key & where it lies is a great mystery to some.  But, little do they know the locks were never closed…we had the “keys” the whole time thru His suffrage.  Release our minds to further explore the unknown & find the answers in Your Holy Words.

I remember Lord when I reached out for Your Hand & an Arm was attached.  An Arm that more than once saved me from the jagged jaws of death.  So, let my petty concerns of this physical life roll off me like punches to a prize fighters chin.  For the real fight is in the unseen world, but we’ll all see it unfold soon.

Be strong in heart, be one in Spirit, be healthy in body, be of sound mind & hold dear to your faith & your soul will sing, dance & act out the talents of the ages….On a stage set before Heaven.

Climate Confusion

 Climate change is a reality that man-kind has lived with since the beginnings of this Earth.  Our waste being in the form of a solid, liquid or gas certainly effects the overall environment.

But, to panic & try to force a change in countries when the science & technology doesn’t come close to the required energy reserves to power & feed any modern civilization is a recipe for disaster for so many reasons.

The efforts to go “green” in the energy & food sectors has devastated some already fragile economies around the globe.  These are the results needed unfortunately to prove or disprove scientific theory & technological efficacy.  So what is the green movements results to date?  Well in a nut shell…to degrade our current lifestyle to the point of darkness & starvation is of little salvation to the problem.

It is too soon for green energy & the elimination of fossil fuels & fertilizers.  Furthermore, it’s not a major problem with so many other pressing issues that are in fact a clear & present danger to our National security.

In closing…. the Earth will continue to warm ever so slightly in the Sun’s current cycle so long as is necessary in God’s timing.  If He can conquer death…He can certainly make the winds blow & the rain fall.

Have faith… reflect & learn from the past, live in & for today, meditate & pray for a better tomorrow.   🐝

We Need A Leader




We need a leader who is strong…who will not back down from a delusional throng.

A leader who is wise & loves this country despite all he despises.  Who is not afraid of being called a racist…because he’s Patriotic.

A leader who has not sold out because he’s not for sale & who has traveled far & wide with God by his side.

A leader who looks around & says,” We can do this, let’s try together.” & who values life, no matter how hard the strife.

We need a leader who other leaders will listen to & who knows diversity without deservability is dumbassity.

We need a leader who won’t listen to the loudest voice…but rather the silence of the Spirit.  Someone who isn’t a political puppet or a business's bitch. Who has real world experience & wisdom only learned from natures lessons & a Faith filled walk.

Our leaders today are all spiffed up in suit & dress.  Give me a leader in jeans & a T-shirt, who is a survivor …not one who owes favors. 

A leader who respects nature & all it holds…a leader who can relate to all the people, who will tell it like it is, because too many only tell… what they want you to hear.

Where will this leader come from?  Who will this leader be? 

What will this leader do?  When will this leader arrive?  

We can only walk in Faith & pray knowing that...

One day soon this leader will come.

For it is Promised… And it shall Be. πŸ™⛪
