Another thing.....

Yeah...so I could spend this time talking about all the things I find wrong with the world...Like the economic system, the ever-failing healthcare system and lack of equal and proper medical care, the increasing rates of poverty, jobless, homeless, and people who are dying from untreated illnesses or denied insurance claims. I could discuss the ongoing war that seems to have no end in sight and the way it was brought about by the very governments who say they are for the people. I could share many of my opinions with you.

I could go even deeper to speak of the origins of life and how we all come from specks of dust in the universe..spun together so fast and so densly compacted within itself, that it makes up everything and everything makes up it. Minute particles so small, that it's invisble to the naked eye and unthinkable to the human mind, but it is us and we are it. I could talk about how modern-day religion is corrupted and fake, shallow, and lost its way, which is causing souls to lose their way.

I could mention how so many are starved for redemption, starved for hope, starved for love, starved for something better, anything better. So many are starved for answers, fumbling in the dark for the road back to the light. I could talk about how it breaks my heart to see our innocent youth being the victims of sex-hungry cyber predators and lurking stalkers and molestors.

I could painfully describe to you how God is cruel and cold because the world is so treacherous. I could be a big whiny baby all day and all night, but I make a choice to be who I am. I make a choice to think positive and act positive. I choose the influence I have on others with the way I act, the way I speak....The gratitude, compassion, respect, and generosity I show toward others when interacting in a community or home environment. I prefer no debating or conversing about such issues that cause anger and hostility. It's not good for the spirit.

I could go on and on and on and on...forever really. But why should I waste my time crying out unto a world about how bad it is. What good is that going to do anybody? You can't dry someone's tears with tears of your own, but you can offer them a "tissue"...That tissue could be the best thing to ever happen to them. It could be their ray of hope shining in the distance. What good does it do to cry about the glass being half-empty, when we should see it half-full in the first place and at all times.

There is never a moment when we should see the glass empty or half-empty. Life is an experience and it's meant for experiencing fully, not running on empty..not running on negative thoughts, feelings and emotions. That'll only take us to the nearest rest stop. Where will we get from there if our tank is on empty?

If we really want to run the race of our life and run it with grace..run it in the positive lane.

The simple fact is..we live in a dark world. The sunlight is like a lightbulb that gets switched on from time to time to give us a taste of what the beautiful light is like. When the light goes out, we live in a dark world.

The best way to light up that darkness is with love of heart and warmth of soul.

Don't ever let anyone change your beliefs, ideals, morals, or goals. Don't take any crap from anyone. Stay true to yourself because the world can be deceptive. Nowadays, with the way the internet promotes people to create "alternate identities" to protect their "real identity"...We've all gone mad. I can be one hundred different people if I had enough time and means. I could create as many identities as I wanted, and be whomever I wished to be in cyber life. The internet makes it very easy for ANYONE to be ANYONE. Get a clue and don't be gullable to anybody trying to pull the wool over your eyes.

Keep them wide open at all times. If you close them for a second, be sure when you open them, you also open your mind.

Life is an eye-opening, mind-opening experience, and it's an experience that's a constant changing process. It's why the Earth rotates in cycles. It's why the climate runs in seasons. It's why animals breed during certan times of year..Because life is a constant, yet it's a variable. It balances itself between good and evil, between water and fire, between air and earth. It balances itself between light and dark. Yes, we're all a part of it, and Yes, it's where we originate from, but free will also allows us to set ourselves apart from it...if need be and if that's what we choose for ourselves.

God made us to be who we are...Good and Bad, we choose. People ask, why does God allow poverty? God doesn't allow poverty, people allow poverty. People create poverty through greed. There is enough resources in the world, where everyone should be able to live a decent life. Not only a handful of people should get to live a good life, while the rest of the world suffers. God created a planet that had plenty of resources for us all, with plenty to go around..an abundance. It was the rich, greedy man who got the bright idea to take it all for himself, through war and governmental systems. If everyone in the world, had a positve, sharing, I can do attitude, who believed in helping their fellow human....If everyone believed in goodness and hope and excercising those qualities toward each other in our everyday lives, then there would most likely be no poverty, hunger, homelessness, and such conditions of the human race, that continually hold us back, suppress us, and keep us down. If everyone in the entire world gave as much as they got, or how much they wanted to get, it'd probably be a happier place for everyone, but Greed, Lust, Envy...Sins of Man keep us in a state of limbo. Also, not good for the spirit.

People get caught up in the outer layers and surface of an ideal and of life. We see what we want to see, what the outer layers of our being allow us to process with our mind's awareness.

We know we're here, we know we exist, we also know we can make a choice between good and bad. It's up to us. We make the choices we make, and humanity suffers for it, then we try to blame God. It's all his fault, because humans are so full of themselves, that we think, if something bad happens, God allowed it..boohoohoo...How about this one?...If something bad happens, it's because a human somewhere in the world just did something bad to make it happen. It was most likely the act of a human being that produced negative results. Then we say...na, it couldn't have been us. We didn't do it...It was God, he's the bad guy who does it all.

People, we've got to wake up and take responsibility for our own actions. Quit blaming others, quit blaming our parents, quit blaming life, quit blaming the goverment, quit blaming the internet, quit blaming religion, quit blaming God. It's us, guys...We're the ones here, living this life, breathing this air. God can only help us, which he does...He keeps us in this universe. He gives us the sun, moon, stars, water, and air everyday we are alive. He keeps us in his grace because we are still here, thriving.

Name one thing in your life that just appeared, with no logical explanation of where it originated. Do you wake up one morning and see a brand new, shiny car in your driveway? You ask everyone where did it come from. No one knows..they say it just appeared out of thin air. You say, no way..how could that be possible? You know nothing just appears out of thin air...Yet, many believe that Earth and everything in our universe just appeared out of thin air.......uhhhh, yeah, ok.

So in summing up my tidbits for today....I gotta say, don't come along trying to change my beliefs. I've believed this way for as long as I can remember and it's doing me just fine. I don't need fixing. I don't need justification. I don't need to prove myself to anyone.

I am Real...I do not hide behind words on a screen..I don't want to be anyone's dream, because the only dream is the way you see me.

If you don't see the real me, then you don't know me...I'll stay as I am. I like me, and my faith is free.
