A Molded Mystery

I find myself writing at hours of the day when most people are dreaming.  It is a most peaceful time in the twenty-four hours of each day…a time when the streets are quiet and most of the world is asleep.

I am grateful for these moments.  I have cherished them since my early days of trying to find some peace within myself, in a world hell bent on destroying every little bit of peace & quiet, that it can.

Life is too short, especially once you pass 60, to stay distracted & cluttered in thought.  There is no way to enjoy this world God has created for us, when you are constantly pressured to perform as a physical person.  We all have a role to play in life.  The secret is to find yours, knowing it may exceed your expectations.  You see, once you find your passion, it is hard to contain it.  That’s how Love works.

Since before I can remember I sought peace in this world.  At five years old I would sit on the forest line, watching & listening to the birds, bunnies, butterflies & bees and all of Earth’s bounties.  I was alone but unafraid…I was comfortable & at peace.  As time went on, I ventured further & further into the woods.   No one knew I was there or where I was.  To this day I feel most fortunate for that piece of Heaven on Earth.  It left unforgettable memories that formed the base, the foundation of my life.

Now it seems peace is harder to find, both in your personal life & throughout the world.  That is the unforgettable memory we all seem to have & I ask myself why.  In a society so dependent on modern conveniences it is easy to shape a narrative.  It is easy to manipulate the masses for their apparent good, when in reality the manipulators only have their selfish gains in mind.  These conveniences that deliver information to us have been most valuable, especially with the internet bank of knowledge at our fingertips.  But, like anything manmade…it can be manipulated even in subtle ways.

But today it is not so subtle.  It is in your face with a “I don’t give a damn attitude.”  This is wrong & needs to stop.  If you watch, read or listen to a bit of local, national or world news you will see the evil that exists in our world.  Some folks think they can ignore it, that it doesn’t affect them, that it’s someone else’s problem.  This kind of complacency will diminish your life & maybe even kill you.

But what this deluge of dysfunctional, disastrous, dastardly deeds does to our mental outlook on this world is very damaging.  We have become numb & immune to the effects of evil & due to that evil has gotten worse.  Evil is not just theft, rape & murder.  Evil also exists in the selfish desires for money, power & ultimately control.  Thru this over emphasized negative outlook on our world, those that seek control find it easier to make you feel dependent on their leadership & support for your very existence.       

Look around you…there is so much more to this world than city life.  The traffic, crime, noise, distractions, hustlers, homeless, affluent & the addicts that exist in the streets of the cities…do not exist on the dirt roads, streams & forests of country life.  Many do not experience both these dynamics in their lives, but many of us have…& we all know where we would rather be.  Away from the hustle & bustle of what you see every hour of every day on the news & into the arms of the bounties of nature.

For over sixty years this society has been molded into majesties for a few and mayhem for the rest of us.  It’s time society calls their bluff, puts the cards on the table & watch as they fold like the fake fornicators they are.   Don’t ever forget our elected leaders serve us…not dictate to us.  Don’t let them mold you into thinking they hold the keys to life’s mysteries.  Most of them can’t even run their own lives, much less yours.  For every problem there is a solution, because in a perfect world, that problem didn’t exist to begin with.  Seek your peace, whether in city or country… & life will become what you envision, not what someone else wants you to live.  Cherish Nature…She’s often all we got to remember our first memories.  🐝🦋🦅

If you have any doubts about what God & His Son, Our Lord & Savior offer this world in these days of mystery… just read Revelations 22…slowly & carefully…because there are no Words after those. 🦉
