For over 3 years, I been challenged physically due
to complications from my diabetes including sitting
in a wheelchair for all that time which has stiffened
my muscles.
No matter what others have said I have taken the road
less traveled with miles to go before I sleep from a job
well done as I will experience the joy of good health and
regain entrance into the land of the walking.
You can't imagine what it has be like to watch others
walk, run, play and you sit and watch after being active
all your life. Some accept this situation but I cannot as
there is so much more I want to do, to experience, to
know, and to share!
Life can be a magnificant adventure if you can open
your mind to the possibilities. You can't let challenges
get in your way but you must rise up in glorious flight
like "The Phoenix" rising up from its ashes soaring
mightily to achieve your desires, dreams, or goals.
It's never easy and the road may be long and hard
but others have come before you to reach the mountain
top literally! I believe if one person can do it so can
another. Don't listen to the naysayers who would lack
the guts to try. Rise up! Never quit! Be prepared for
the journey ahead no matter what your goal is for
some glorious day in the future you will rise up to
walk again!

If You Don't Walk Down The Path I Travel.....
''If you don't walk down the path I travel, how can you
see the sights I see." The idea behind this thought
finds its origin 'from the Gospel of Thomas where
Yeshua talks early on about taking, like he had, a journey
of self discovery to discover who you are at your core.
We're all different having had different upbringings,
experiences, points of view, and perspectives yet some
of us have a curiosity of gaining knowledge and "truth"
and others are willing to accept what is passed down.
When one seeks a path to enlightenment the teacher does
appear and a path way presents itself where a range of
thoughts are discovered some pleasing and others disturbing.
We have been discourged from taking this path, " the true way"
by authority figures not wanting us to know because we wouldn't
couldn't understand it. Only they possessed they said the ability
to know.
But we must march forward to discover the ancient teachings
which reveal to us a new perspective of conciousness and
understanding opening the way to inner peace and viewing
the world with " new eyes" the " eyes of Yeshua."

Common Sense Revisited
We are now in a pivotal time in our 200 plus year
history which could determine our future for many
years to come.
This great nation was founded on the principles of
hard work, perseverance, the rights of anyone to
pick themselves up to strive for greatness, and the
idea of community that we are the American People
where like at The House of Burgess everyone should
have a say!
Somehow we've lost our way from the noble ideas of
our founding fathers to the petty politics of today.
We need to chart a new vision by opening our preexisting
perspectives to view a new day in America where we focus
on the many and not the few. Where we view each other as
brothers and sisters , not just giving lip service. to the beautiful
lessons an amazing carpenter weaved some 2000 years ago.
I've said many times he spoke," Love others as I love you."
But truly how many of us really do! We are not going to get out
of this centuries old dilemma unless are able to put on new eyes
" the eyes of Yeshua," where we realize we are all one, Americans!
not Democrats or Republicans and working for the common good
and the benefit of every individual no matter the race, sex, or faith.
This message has been shared before throughout time yet we manage
to give it a deaf ear , too busy to hear it, goes against my interests,
and numerous other excuses. But just remember, other great civilizations
have gone under remember Greece and Rome!
It's time to Wake Up America and open our minds to a range of
possibilities that can restore greatness to this majestic land.

Believe You Can !
So many times in our lives we are faced with
challenges and obstacles which line our paths
but with the right attitude, determination, a pre-set
plan of action, and the power of belief you can
find strategies to succeed.
Believe you can ! A can do attitude of " Finding a
way or making one".
Now I'm not saying it's always fast or easy but it's
possible!
Over 3 years ago, I joined the ranks of amputees
in this great nation and have been told by health
professionals my walking days are done!
That it was a pipe dream, an illusion of my mind.
But I am the captain of my ship , I refuse to accept
their limited point of view. Don't submissively accept
another person's opinion no matter who they think
they are but find your own way, make your own path
as there is so much information available to us all today.
Today I was able to stand for a short time but I'm on
my way towards the taste of success once again joining
the land of the walkers. A disability is only a disability
if you let it control you and not you master it!
So rise up making your voice be heard and find your
way or path to achieving what you desire.
See you soon in the world of the walkers!

The Reality of Illusion
We get so rapped up in our lives each day, our
wants, our needs, our desires , our beliefs that
we can tell ourselves whatever we want to further
our desires whether it's reality or an illusion we've
created because we can't face our reality.
I am no different, the past 5 years has been a living
hell for me. First I lost my beautiful wife too young!
Then about a year later, part of my left leg and my
ability to walk. and almost my life!
Then for the past 3 plus years, I've been fighting back
to regain my health and the ignorance of the medical
establishment.
But I decided in my hospital bed, that I was the captain
of this ship and I was not going to go down. That I was going
to find "the way" to regaining my health, ability to walk,
a new beautiful loving partner, and a bigger and better career!
So I've been going full steam ahead, focused on my objectives,
believing that I could start to rebuild my life on schedule.
But then one day, a beautiful little bird came into my world
and without knowing it lifted my spirit further but then made me
realize that I was being dishonest with myself creating an illusion
that everything was on target when it wasn't.
In many ways, my life is moving in the right direction and my
therapists and nurses fully expect me to recover in 2013 but
in some areas, in my life, I'm living in a world of illusion needing
to remove the pain not of losing my lower left leg but the
masterpiece that honored me in 1990 to share all of herself with me.
In my desire to move on, I've created in my mind a beautiful illusion
that I was ready to start to heal that wound in my heart and soul
to find a new miss wonderful beautiful, intelligent, talented, and
caring and she is out there but I would be dishonest and illusional
to her and to me to think that I'm ready now to share all of me with
her.
So I want to thank that beautiful little bird for helping me come back
to reality and have the patience for events to develop for like my
masterpiece beauty if she spoke would whisper their names.

A New Perspective
Now I want you to humor me as I ask you to open
your mind and perspective as I lay out some ideas.
I have studied the works of Dr. Edward de Bono and
Dr. Roger van Oech, who write about developing the skills
of thinking. Dr. van Oech discusses in his book
A Wack on the Side of the Head that many
times there is more than one right answer but we need to be
open minded and have the burning desire to look. Or as the
bible states," Seek and you shall find."
For centuries, various ideas and perspectives have been passed
down as the "truth" of the way things are because certain
individuals or organizations have decreed so! As we've been
told not to think for ourselves or explore different alternatives.
But now with the internet, a wealth of information is at everyone's
finger tips which makes it, for the first time in human history,
possible to explore different ideas, perspectives, and view points
and decide what we as thinking intelligent primates believe.
But then we should be able to be respectful of others points
of view even when we disagree, working toward mutual
understanding and solutions. Congress are you paying attention!
We've been told that religion and science can't work together!
But it's not true! Science can validate certain religious beliefs
by shining new light on it. We need to open our ears and to hear
the cries of the universe and the carpenter whose knowledge has
been ignored for too long!
For example, you may refer to the source of everything as God but
I prefer Universal Intelligence yet we're talking about the same idea
just using different labels. If we can't see that what hope is there for
us as a species!

More Projections
It 's interesting to whom ever you listen to today about last
nights debate between Biden and Ryan that each side
projects from their own preexisting perspective.
Speaking from one's perspective is fine but making this exercise
between us and them instead of we is a big reason we're in the
mess we're in as a nation. It's been a dilemma Yeshua faced
2000 years ago and it continues to rear its ugly head.
What does it take for men and women to realize we are all
connected and one and should treat each other with love,
kindness, and respect working together to build this great
nation instead of tearing it down for the benefit of the few.
I believe two of my heroes Jefferson and Lincoln who were
trying to build a more perfect union for everyone would be
dismayed at the current situation. Lincoln, a republican,
said," of the people, for the people, by the people shall
not perish from the earth." And he was not referring to
corporations!
What has made our country great is that we have focused on
building a nation that benefits everyone not just the elite.
That is why our forefathers came here in the first place!
It eminates from the writings of Jefferson and
Payne two of our greatest American philosophers.
I don't know how we can steer the course away from
national decline if we can't follow the message from
a simple carpenter some 2000 years ago." Love others
as I have loved you."
It's time for us as a nation, a peoples, to truly listen to
the humble carpenter and start working towards a
national goal, an American goal and rebuild this
magnificant nation to the ideal of great men like
Jefferson, Lincoln, and Payne.
