9/18/2022 I Dreamed the Bat

 

     Dreams can take you places where you can't go physically. They can also help you in resolving issues in your life no matter what they maybe. Alot  of times dreams make no sense, they're jumbled up. Sometimes you will see a recurring symbol an animal, landmark, balloon, person or what have you. These recurring  symbols are important. Try to figure out how it pertains to you. Write them down and the full date. When you look back at your notes after 2 weeks maybe you will see what that symbol means. Keep trying, it's worth it.

     One night  I had a dream. I was looking through a mask, it belonged to a fictional character  called Batman (Bruce Wayne). This guy witnessed his parents gunned down by a creep. Bruce was a kid. His psyche was severely damaged after that night. Looking through his mask, I felt his self loathing,  blackness and bitter hatred. That dude was one sick human being. I couldn't take it. I turned my head 180 degrees and saw through my own eyes, what a relief. Batman is doomed. Locked very tight within his narrow existance. In his view, there is no hope absolutely none. I was glad to be free of that mask. I now know  what it is to be Batman for a moment I walked in his shoes.

     Another dream, I'm holding a handgun and shot 1 time at a female friend of mine. I woke up. I knew what that dream meant. I have a caustic wit and it must of went to far with her. The next time I saw her, I apologized to her. The dream it was a gun, in real life it was my tongue. The dream allowed me to correct my misdeed. Another time I fell into gossip about a group member of ours. I felt something on my leg, reach down, it's blood. I got it,  wound the group cohesiveness  wound yourself. This is how God teaches us via dreams and daily life. It's  great. But not all the time. Either way you do learn about yourself. Like a house you love, your always thinking of ways to make it better. Thats you. Trying to be a better version of you.

9/16/2022 ORCS

 

     This is what the Ukrainians call the invading Russians.  Recently the Orcs are on the run back to mother Russia.  Not all of them though. These Ukrainians  chose to fight for their independence and democracy.  They put it all on the line. Good for them. Just as the French helped us during the American Revolution, we and the Europeans have helped the Ukrainians.  This war is about the forces of good and evil. Orcs being the great evil. The karma they incurred will go on and on for a long time to come. Hopefully this nation(USA) will not splinter into 2 factions. We will need everyone to combat the coming strifes that are coming down the pike.  All it takes is to be kind. Which requires empathy. Do on to others as you would have them do on to you. Do some critical thinking and keep and open mind. People use fear to control others. Like herding sheep. Watch out for those types of people they can cause mega damage to the status quo.

    It took many years to build this country (USA) up as a force to do good in this world.  It can all go south quickly in a few short years, if we are not carefull. The time is now.

Unite, be loving,, be kind, be courteous, be happy, be polite, be caring, be helpful, be generous, be strong, be aware, be fruitful,  be prosperous, be thinking, be You.....

9/5/2022 Tending One's Garden

 

    Sitting here in another state. I put out bird feeders and watch the goings on at the feeder. I looked at my old hummingbird feeder, time for an upgrade. I put it up and after 2 weeks got my first customer. He had it all to himself. They are small like 2 inches tall with little bitty legs. Not as colorful as those in California. When they approach the feeder, they twitter away. I assume they're happy. When they stay suspended stationary in the air, they hum like mini powerful jet engines. They hum loud and fly very fast. Now I know why they're  called hummingbirds. After 3 weeks another hummingbird came. The first bird didn't take kindly to this intruder. There is plenty of sugar water for everybody and elbow room around the feeder's ports. The first bird would knock off the 2nd bird from the port and chase him through the air super fast. I set up a second feeder 12 ft away from the first one. The first bird claimed that feeder as well, guarding the 2 feeders. He would dive bomb and chase any other bird that dared to alight upon a feeder. I moved the 2nd feeder to front of house blocking the visual line. It worked for a day.  By the 2nd day , the first bird defends this one as well but not as well as having 2 feeders in his sight line. Territorial and aggressive these hummingbirds are.

    Sounds alot like us humans. We succumb to are baser instincts when it suits us. Trying to tear down others to make us feel better. Unlike hummingbirds, man can get violent with his fellow humans. We have the bigger brain but fail to use it properly. If each one of us would be content with what we have and not be so fearful, we would be more happy. Make pretend that you can create your life, then proceed to put things in it that you would like. So you can create, you can ad to things or take away. You don't  like someone, you can elect to not entertain them and vice aversa. Always think that you are the director  of your life and act as if. You can write in or out anyone you choose. The more happy you are with your life the better you will be with others. But just remember sometimes when you create something you should be responsible to it. So be carefull with what it is you create. Always evaluate your life once a week for 30 minutes, say on Sunday. This is the time to make changes to your life's  course. This is key to your success. 30 minutes every week, write the changes you make down in your big sturdy notebook.

    There's  2 rolls you can play in life, 1 a victim the other a knowing creator. And when you are happy with your life, you are kind. It's a good state to be in.

8/31/2022. Royal Karma

 

    Royal in this case is the baseball team Kansas City Royals. It's also about karma ( what goes around comes around).  It can be instantaneous  or delayed short term or very long term. It can be bad karma or good karma either way you are going to learn something as it plays out.

    Back to the game, a 18 yr old kid got gifted tickets to see the Royals play in their home park. He brought his mitt, just in case Juan Soto hit a home run. He's a Royal. Sure enough Soto pokes one over the outfield wall right at Bruce the 18 yr old. Bruce stands up to make the catch as another guy tries for it. It's in Bruce's mitt temporarily,  until the other guy rips it free from Bruce's  glove. The guy offers him 2 tee shirts because he felt guilty. The kid turned him down. The older guy kept the ball. It was all caught on tape. The Royals  gave Bruce a free ticket and 2 signed balls, one by Soto himself. Words he writ on ball was sorry about that.

    So Bruce had good karma. The ball being hit right at him and making the catch. Bad karma when the guy stole the ball. Back to good karma when the Royals gave him 2 signed balls by Soto and the shortstop. Bruce also got to meet Soto face to face. Now,  there is a memory for a lifetime for Bruce.

8/16/2022 See No Evil

     Here no evil, speak no evil. Depicted in a form of three monkeys .  One of the definitions of evil is as follows. Good men or women that see evil and say nothing or do nothing are complicit to that existing evil. So evil starts with the one and then becomes two and so on. Each day is a struggle in ripping up these roots of evil. Recently it's  been in California. A crowd entered a 7 & 11 and helped themselves to what ever took their fancy. Ofcourse without paying. This has been going on allover. Also in the prison system where young women inmates were sexually violated, by prison guards since 1985.  Violence and pain are going to increase as the years go by. 

    This is why one has to develop a bond with God via divine spirit. With that link one can weather any storm that comes their way. This connection is the best tool you can use in living your life successfully.  Spirit will help in the smallest things in your life as well as the biggest things.  Spirit can find people for you to further your goals. All to get the wheels moving  is for you to ask of spirit or God it's help. Reading this  blog  Unfolding Journeys will show you the how's. One day many people will live their lives doing just this.  Then it will become a better world for the planet and for those who live  upon  the earth. But you don't  have to wait til then, you can get started now.

8/16/2022 Greed

     Last month it was a bishop  from NYC, who got robbed of 400,000 in jewelry at a sermon he was giving in his own church.  Now it's  a Kansas City preacher scolding his parishioners  because they didn't  come forth with an expensive watch worth 3,000 dollars. He said he was waiting for it for close to a year. It was like payment for his sermons. He said to his parishioners, you could of used your McDonald's  and Red Lobster money to help pay for it.  Talk about hutzba, thus guy got it covered.

    It comes down to say one thing, do another. Kids learn this from the get go. When kids are out in public, they admonish their kids not to scream. Back home weeks later, they see their parents screaming at each other. 

    So, to the congregation,  you know what he's  about. Well, why not get rid of him and move on. It's  called separating the chaff  from the wheat.

8/13/2022 Fire Spotter

     I read about her before.  Kathy  Shoopman from Northern California.  She would climb steel towers on top of mountains to spot  fires  in the forest. She would phone in the coordinates allowing  fire fighters to get a jump on containment. At one time she was also a forest firefighter. She has been at it since 1974. She loved solitude and the job she performed.  She knew her job backward and forward. The pro. 

     The Mckinney  fire  this summer consumed a northern California forest. The biggest fire this year in California. Her and her neighbors were given evacuation warnings because of it.  Allot of neighbors left, she stayed. The fire took her and her home as she started to leave.

    When you do a job for a long time, you get good at it. But all it takes is one slip up and you end up paying a big price. When given a warning about anything, pay attention no matter what.  Listening to that little voice within will protect you from calamity.  And sometimes if you didn't  get the message from within,   divine spirit will send someone to tell you personally.  In my life I invite  divine spirit in and it gave me warnings many times over,  which I heeded.   This divine spirit is available to everyone, no exceptions. It knows everything going on about you.  Listen, and the next life that may be saved is your own.   Talk to God, he will answer you.
