P R O S E

to become balanced, unwavering, numb, supreme elation to great woes, a path to inner peace, forced to let go never to get it returned ...

how many early morning bird songs blend with a fragrant breeze caressing wildflowers?

we have tried to escape nature, leaving true priorities for living behind ...

an infinite past, a brief moment of physical manifestation, then an infinite future ... from the "void" we are blessed with consciousness, forces of creation from an unknown origin (source of gravity), has to be external, unless our physical reality is truly infinite ... it either is or not ... we are going to find out

_______________

what we see, we find words to express our perception ...

walked in burning fire of a hell on our earth ... how can we share physical life when nobody wants to? tell me again your stories of your paradise as blood boils from intolerance and hatred?

nobody explained WHY we have to be violent, aggressors ...

Fear, Pain, Money

simple creatures caged, disconnected from what nature feels like.

________________

understand that we are all one with universe ... you and I are alive ... this world could be a beacon of beauty for all to enjoy ... conquering instead of sharing, division instead of understanding ...

old world views in  new world breakthroughs don't seem to be mixing ... touting love while flexing muscle ...

we need to evolve and grow in our conciousness letting peaceful actions prevail

____________

I try to achieve a level of mindfulness and intuition that helps me to rise above, past our earthly restrictions.

Moments of realization that help us let go.

Our energies are what are eternal. Each individual has to tap into those energies to find their own true nature and be awakened within.
______________

Late one night, I was on guard duty. I had to patrol the area around the skiff. That night, I was a good way away. Looking at the stars, it was very dark. Above the sound of a generator, I heard a gunshot. I couldn't see them. They fired at me several more times. There was no cover, I was in the prone position looking for flashes, none were seen.

They finally stopped and I saw our galaxy. I continued my duty, and there was another sunrise ... another day to live.

People are detached of what dying violently truly is like.

Additional Words

when you feel the fear you look for happiness, satisfaction and contentment ... searching to find peace with a smile from deep within ... feed the mind to guide future steps ... separation of togetherness, the sun is ours ... simple puzzles to solve, how you treat your fellow man ... be still your busy mind, we can do this as one
