Sadness and Wrong Choices Made…

Profoundly saddened was the man, as back on his life he gazed, not out fear of punishment for the grave errors in judgement he made, as he approached the great unfathomable beyond, for one thing he did know was there is no divine retribution or reward waiting — there is only now and perhaps a karmic balancing. No his heart sickness, was because he was disappointed in himself, by the choices that he made that kept him from being all he could BE, in this LOVE’s experience and for the mind blindness that allowed for it to take so long for him to again remember what the choices needed to BE that, are…

Selfish Altruism…

A jaded broken man whiskey bottle in his wrinkled hand came upon a young woman walking the long downtrodden streets of the infamous Tenderloin of San Francisco, California, as she walked she handed out blankets to those in need of warming from the foggy winter chill, to each who took a blanket she also gave hug and a smile before dancing gleefully away. Finally the man walked to the young woman and slurred, “What gives? No one shares nothing without getting something in return. So what’s your con?” The young woman who had been kneeling hugging a poor tired lost soul, stood and turned to him still beaming and said, “Okay you’re on to me I do share only because I get; I get happiness, I get joy, I get fulfillment and it is my daily prayer that everyone remembers their spirits true purpose is to be selfish just like me.” The man still not understanding or believing then said her, his words dripping through intoxicated lips. “You mean to tell no ones paying you or you’re not doing this out the fantasy that in someway you will rewarded in the afterlife for your good deeds here on Earth or you will be saved from some divine retribution?The woman walked to the man, placing her hand on his shoulder and said, “Dearest brother, I see now your confusion, you think Heaven is somewhere, some when else, when it is in truth here and now, always here and now.” She continued, “While giving, as I mentioned before, could be perceived as selfish. it is not martyrdom. I invite you to join me in my acts of selfish empathy and greedy altruism, for the well of happiness, spiritual bliss is infinitely abundant, created ever to be shared.” With that she hugged and kissed him gently on his weather worn cheek, before smiling and disappearing into the throng of the needy, handing out blankets and hugs. The man was then struck by the knowing that while blankets warmed their bodies, it was the hugs that warmed their souls and it is that we cannot touch, LOVE, that truly makes our spirit whole. Tears of joy welled in his eyes, as he dropped his bottle hollow spirits in the trash, before sitting down, on the cold pavement and wrapping his arms around another lost soul who had been waiting to be found.

Fairytale “Man”…

The LOVE story titled “Man” is playing out like every great fairytale ever spun, lots of exciting tragic drama, good versus evil, a fall from grace, before finding spiritual redemption, all culminating in glorious happy ending, with the prince or princess saved by the LOVE of a pauper; at least that is how my soul knows our ending, our beginning again can be…

Monuments to His Arrogance…

Why must man use the will of his choice to deface, defame and taint all natural living beauty LOVE created, only to replace it with hideous dead imitations laced with fear, monuments to reflect his arrogance? The truth is he must not, but chooses to…

Angels With Halos Askew…

Wings bound too long to ground by fear, time has come for the Angels with halos askew, to break the bonds of self enslavement, to soar once more on the infinite winds of LOVE, into an endless star filled sky, continuing the journey eternal…

The Last Songbird Gone…

O’o a’a singing to his mate for life
Calling, calling, calling to his soul’s love
Awaiting a harmonious reply that will never come
For he is the last; his lover, all he loved gone
Beware it harkens an end near for all lovers
When the last songbird has sung its last LOVE song…

(Kauai’s O’o’ a’a bird pictured is now gone from this experience forever and so to his love song, never to be heard again. Can we if course not changed be far behind?)

Letting Go and Falling…

Age after age after age, humanity has clung tightly,, desperately to their fear, allowing themselves to be controlled and manipulated, by those who know and know they know better, with rhyming and disastrous results littered throughout the wastelands and ruins of their history. It is time they let go, remember and fall into LOVE; to change everything it is just that easy, just that simple, just let go of your fear and fall into LOVE…
