If not for LOVE’s saving grace, I would without a moment’s hesitation choose to disappear completely from both time and space, rather in fear continue to race to stay in place.

just LOVE…

In fear where all is foe, by their own hand senselessly dieing, instead in LOVE where all is friend, they could be wisely thriving; in fear forgotten they were once some body, in LOVE remembered they became once more, forever every body…

just LOVE…

If I were to ask most folks I know whether they like animals or people more, an overwhelming majority would say; animals. But why is that? I believe it is because animals embody the unconditional LOVE we in our heart of hearts, soul of souls know we ARE and wish to BE again…

just LOVE…

Continuing to follow those who lead and have led us in fear to the same tragic, untimely conclusion eon after eon solely for their own greedy, power drunk ends is like combining this quote by Einstein, “Insanity: is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results” and the Koan, “If all your friends jumped off a bridge to their death then would you too?” It is time we awoke to the truth of LOVE and stopped blindly, foolishly, lemming like, jumping off bridges with our mad Kings and Generals; think, feel, believe, have faith, we are truly in LOVE more powerful than we can possibly imagine…

just LOVE…

It is the moments of pure connection with others in LOVE no matter how few, far between or brief that my faith is renewed; joyful reminders of the soul purpose of our BEING, coming now to those with faith attuned in greater frequency and intensity…

just LOVE…

“Goodbyes are only for those who love with their eyes. Because for those who love with heart and soul there is no such thing as separation.” ~ Rumi

It occurred to me, as I ponder ever deeper the purpose of this experience being human, of this un-civilization that we have manifested, with our seeming apartness from all that is life’s process ever unfolding, that is infinite creation revealing itself before us, in the most minute way that we are meant to be the pre-servers of; perhaps in truth the illusion is not that we are apart, but that even in our imaginings apartness and masquerade control, we still serve the process?

Like the raging storm that churns the sea and breaks down the shore, whose winds fall even the mightiest tree and whose rains flood the land, sliding even mountain peaks to valleys below, but when its tempest has exhausted and blue skies and sun’s rays return, life flourishes anew – we see that even the storm which was feared as bringer of end of days, was actually friend and servant to life’s eternal process, after all.

So is that what man has unwittingly chosen to be, the storm, that brings the wind, the rain, the fury, that serves the change that always comes and must be, for all to continue to be what is? And also like the storm will we soon be spent, our chaos energy dissipated, given to the absolute order that is Infinity, leaving in our wake, as well life anew?

And what of us who yearn so desperately for our fellow man blind to their state, to choose to be in peace, in calm, in bliss, in LOVE; even the most ferocious cyclone, disastrous hurricane has an eye…

Yes in our squall of fear, our terror of death, the unknown, perhaps we have served life’s process well, while our own, not much at all.

just LOVE…

At the proverbial crossroads we stand, the clock to decide our destiny has hastened its ticking and our choices are now more clearly defined than ever before.

Down one fork the dead end of the known lie; fear, oil, ignorance, competition, war, contamination, scarcity, matter, extinction; tick, tock, the clock stops.

Down the other the eternity of the unknown truth; LOVE, cannabis, wisdom, collaboration, peace, restoration, abundance, spirit, ascension; tick, tock, tick, tock, tick, tock, the clock ticks ever on….

just LOVE…

Life is creation, the rain that falls, the river that flows
LOVE is the water, countless souls, endless drops of God, Infinity
I am everything and everything is me, we; eternally free, to BE…

just LOVE…

From this I understand that what I want also wants me, is looking for me and attracting me. There is a great secret here for anyone who can grasp it.” ~ Rumi
