As I get older and wiser in life, I find a need to question humanity.  How did we come to accept that a celebrity’s life is far more valuable than a soldier?  Do we realize what we are doing giving so much to entertainment neglecting that which keeps life ongoing?

Yesterday, I stopped by a deli.  There I discovered a soldier who had served time in Iraq.  There were limited work choices for him so he ended up working in this deli.  He was disappointed with his choices in America.  What was offered to a soldier after serving time in Iraq did not come close to equating the finances received while fighting a war that led no where.   His need to survive and have a quality of life led him to believe like my son who also served time in Iraq that in order to have a valued life in America he would have to reenlist to have hope of a bright future.  This is very sad to me especially when I see how much celebrities make just because they entertain us.  What is wrong with this picture?

Here we are in a country supposedly a land of the free and the brave.  How is there freedom when soldiers are treated like scum?   I remember watching a documentary where a soldier had served in Iraq and received multi bullet wounds.  His spine was damaged badly he suffered with pain daily but was denied financial support from the government.  This soldier was living in his car.  He was homeless.  The story got to Geraldo and he aired it on his show.  It wasn’t until then that the government had mercy on him and made arrangement s to assist him in having financial support to survive in America.

We have celebrities worth millions of dollars and they do not have to work another day in their lives.  We doll out our hard earned money to them.  Why?  Just because they entertain us, are we that shallow that we do not realize they would do what they do regardless of the overpaid millions we pay because they would have to survive like everybody else.    America is struggling financially and it is not getting any better.  The hard working class is suffering because we do not realize we are living in a country that is determined to have classes of people.   The rich, poor and the decreasing middle class is what our government is determined to have at any cost.   Why?  IT IS BECAUSE OF THE NEED FOR POWER, SUPERIORITY, EVIL, AND CONTROL.

 Wake up America.  This world is designed to own our souls.  Right now as we struggle to maintain our lives, the gas prices dominate leaving people in a state of desperation as planned by our own leaders.  Their determination to strip us from the right to have a quality of life is growing stronger as they rule our necessities.   If a soldier is struggling even after surviving the war in Iraq, imagine what is in stored for those who are not celebrities.           

As we grow closer to choosing our next president of the United States of America, I am in awe to discover the American people have a different conscious of reality about what is best for us. We are not allowing the media and leaders of huge organizations to direct our thinking. Good for you, America. We have finally stood up to the beast of control over our minds.

Though we have the potential of having an African American male President or a white woman to be our president, there is something even greater than this happening. People are putting up a fight against propaganda and in some ways abuse from our government. Finally we see if we do not get a president that knows people are what the government is supposed to serve than people serving the government, we will continue to die soulfully and spiritually.

The fact that we are owing other countries for our survival and facing unaccountable gas hikes daily reveals our government did not have our best interest at heart. Who will? Who will demand that our government stop raping this country? Will it be Hillary, Obama or John? We know whoever it is he or she will be risking their lives because when good people want to do right, assassinations show its ugly head. So, know this leader who is sincere knows the risks and will be willing to die for it. Can you identify who it is?

We as a people knowing the risks this great person is willing to take for us. We must continue to stand for right and best for ourselves as a whole. This election year is revealing color is now colors of hope and the re-establishment of a foundation less controlled with corruption. The past decade has been weeping, yes weeping with corruption leading to real corrosion of the American soul. Our children deserve a healthy future and a solid history to respect. Finally, we may be on the verge of making real and profitable history that reveals the power of America to stand on its own two feet. Enough of the greedy monster and its soldiers. Bring out the old and bring in the new!

As we begin to narrow down to that Democratic candidate, I can’t help but wonder which one can actually be the best candidate so I am left to rely on what I personally consider what is important.  In my everyday walk in life, I judge people by their parenting because if they are committed to their parenting then the chances of being people of good character rank high in my sight.  With this in mind, I wondered about Hillary Clinton.  I have not seen her exposure of nurturing and enjoying her family.  I’ve received numerous of e-mails and caught glimpses of Barrack Obama showing genuine affection towards his entire family.  Being that women are supposedly the natural nurturers created by God, it seems that there should be more displays of Hillary being a nurturing person towards others.  What I have only seen is a woman on the battle field.  And the price has left her to appear to have to put on tough skin to compete in a man’s world.  This is a turn off for me.  We have enough male energy going around in this world. 

The changes that this country need to be making is getting back in touch with the reality that we are spiritual beings having a human experience.  We are not human beings having a spiritual experience.  For our country to re –establish its ground, it has to face the fact that too much of anything is not good for us.  It is no doubt that America has had too much materialism and technology.  We have had too much mental and physical dependency leaving our spiritual selves out of our choices in life.  For this we are not making good judgments as individuals and as a country.  If we were in touch with our spiritual existence, we would not have ended up in Iraq to continue to gain more physical substance.  The lack of love for our fellowman over materialism has resulted in our facing the world as a real melting pot.  We are decaying quickly and the world is watching.

As I stated in the beginning, I believe parenting is the key to establishing loving bonds from one person to another.  When a child does not experience nurturing, love, caring and a chosen priority in their parents ‘ lives, the result is a callous heart that goes out into the world to gain material success and in some cases at any cost.  Our candidates including the republican candidate, Mr. John McCain must have a heart and that heart must be grounded in the family foundation in order that he or she will understand the soulful needs of this country that is starving from a lack of love, empathy, compassion and justice.  Charity always begins at home and spreads abroad.  Without love there is no hope of justice.  It is this reality that the world does not want to face for it is love that ends corruption.  There is no need in listening to candidates programmed to the ways of the world.  They will not accomplish anything but more corruption and a need to continue to rape the American people of their freedom to enjoy life as a child of God.  What does this mean?  It means without spirit, the American people can forget having a life without dictatorship.  The gas prices are telling us something.  There is a very powerful source behind the controllers of this needed entity.  This source wants Americans to become silent slaves to their madness.  And their success depends on our not allowing love to be a priority beginning in our homes.  Love will alter priorities and needs.  It will allow us to be set free as we were born to be.  Hillary let me see your love.

I don't know about you but this Christmas Season did not have the spirit of Christmas as I remembered it could have. Happy Holidays didn't do it for a lot of people and it showed up in the atmosphere. To think our dictators took time out to remove Merry Christmas from celebrating conscious after all of these years, yet they can't catch Bin Laden nor establish security for our children. I tell you, something is wrong with this picture.

As we approach the New Year celebration, I pray people will begin to see the programming the world system induces into our conscious. There is more to life than struggling to get more material wealth. If we do not introduce the other missing elements of life into our conscious, we are going to have to prepare ourselves to be surrounded by heathens that do not care how we feel about anything. Children are being denied full development of their souls due to materialism. Appreciation, respect, good character, love etc. are not priorities anymore in preparing children  to become adults.

It is extremely important that we each individually get in touch with gratitude and appreciation for having another day of life to be able to see, talk, laugh, hear, smell and to choose what is best for self and mankind. Instead of complaining about not getting a new car, pair of shoes, nails and hair done, promotions etc., thank God you are alive. Start this New Year praying people will choose to be a better human being for the sake of diffusing the selfish acts of many people.

Before you think you have it bad or deserve more, think about a family who birthed a son with no limbs. This young man is more appreciative to being alive than many of us with large bank accounts, all our limbs, loved ones alive, etc. He is so grateful that he tells the world how blessed he is to be alive. And, he is more independent than the average person because this young man, Nic Vujicic uses everything God gave him to the best of his ability. We can learn something from him. We can re-establish our priorities and open our eyes to love, caring, giving and turning away from greed and selfishness of ourselves and authority figures that take from us to stay rich.

HAPPY NEW YEAR should mean returning home to our souls---our first realization of knowing we are blessed to be alive and we are here to love one another not just get more stuff. Begin again. Nic Vujicic knows why we are born. He is amazing! Join me in observing the true meaning of life:

When you look at a country spending billions of dollars in a war in Iraq, you can't help but wonder what we are thinking.  Billions of dollars to protect us from terrorists or is it insurgents?  I'm not sure; I just know lives and our hard earned money is headed FAR AWAY FROM THIS COUNTRY because mankind has not developed beyond the early days of the Bible.
 
We can come up with billions to kill and destroy but little to rebuild the city of New Orleans a place where American people worked and slaved to give it meaning.  Why is that?  Why is it not important to take care of this area of our country?  In America alone, we have single individuals that could afford to rebuild that whole foundation and they would not miss the money as far as lifestyle.  Yet, our rich preachers, athletes and celebrities except the exceptional ones would rather sit on money they will never spend in this life time than to be a blessing for innocent victims of a natural disaster.
 
Our media does not expose good on a high scale, they would rather we continue thinking the world is filled with heartless, selfish and greedy people seeking to be worshiped by others.  But this does not apply to everyone.  My heart was blessed when I read and listened to Brad Pitt share his genuine concerns in rebuilding New Orleans.  He is one soul that went there with the people's best interest at heart without looking for a pat on the back.  He didn't just come there for news coverage and tax write offs.  This family man and well known celebrity came to assist in healing New Orleans.  For once, it was not about color but supporting humanity to become stronger and nurtured.  I just want to thank God for his spirit and his family being so willing to join him on his determined mission to do good will.

BRAD PITT MAKING A GENUINE DIFFERENCE

One day a friend sent me the last speech and sermon of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. It wasn't until after reading it, I realized why the Book of Revelations will come to past. Dr. King was the catalyst of an evolutionary change in this country. He was not just risking his life for the African American race but for the survival of the human race. He had such vision for he saw where this country was taking humanity. Bureaucrats were and have taken us into a state of slavery. No matter how much money you have in this country, there will always be those who want you to have less, especially if you are not living to cut throat your own people. Dr. King knew how to shut them down. He knew how to condition the minds and hearts of his followers to join him in transformation.

Unlike the soldiers being conditioned to fight in Iraq, the people who walked with Dr. King had a spiritual base giving them genuine hope for the future of the human race. The soldiers in Iraq are convinced to do something that has already proven to not be the best for the future of the human race. If there was a Christ image that walked this earth to save people from dictatorship of leaders in darkness, it was Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. The end times Christians speak of are a direct result of greed and a need for human beings to have power over one another. Christ and King represented revolution. It takes a serious spiritual base to bring something like this on. We are conditioned to not go into our unseen self where self-empowerment lies. Instead, we sell ourselves to accumulate things and societal positions among people who do not care about us.

When I think of Dr. King, I think of the spiritual death of this Country. Look at it! There is only rushed spirits of fear and desperation to acquire more before it is taken. There is no human bonding and connecting. We divide and conquer just as bureaucrats want us to do. The end of the world is already here. There is no love binding us as one race - the humane race. The soul of this country is gone. We are just waiting for the striking of a match. I am sure the Universe is a better place without us. In all cases, the majority rule. Was Christ and King's death in vain?

I find it very interesting how people face the world as though they know everything. The reality is, no one knows everything so why do we act like they do when it comes to our lives. We let the world decide who or what we are and how valuable or valueless we are based on programmed terms.

The world lets us know how it feels about us. But, we ignore all the evidence. Systems are established all over the world designed to keep us moving steadily along with giving our time of existence away. If we are not working, we are seeking further education. If we are not doing that we are seeking preachers to tell us about God and ourselves. We should ask ourselves the question: Who really wants us to be well, happy and free? And who doesn't.   Anyway you look at it the world does not have our best interest at heart.

They need for us to always be needy about something in our survival. They want us to rely on their choices for our lives. Take this pill, try this program, let us find you a mate, God expects..., be willing to die for our choices no matter what they are, get a degree, we will let you in farther to our games of getting, etc. All our lives we follow the voices of needy people needing us to be like the scare crow on the wizard of Oz....do not have a brain, use ours. We will be your guide until you die. They have us convinced we need them. The truth is they need us to be somebody in the world they have made.

We don't stop the madness. Yet, people dissect the Bible like it came into the world to destroy and misguide us into a life of doom. It is just a book that has survived time. Why do people attack it? Why do they not dissect the minds of leaders and those in position to make this a better place? We see where their choices have gotten us--- terrorized and unable to love one another. That just a book is a powerful presence in life and we know it. No matter how we judge,scrutinize,reject, curse, avoid, use it to control others, etc., we know it is from our Creator. It's amazing how it just looks at you and strip you naked in one verse.

The Bible tells us, we know in part. We will only know in part until God reveals more. Case closed. Do you think the Creator of humanity would give us the whole truth knowing our tendencies to self-destruct? There is no way. Look at how people act when they think they know so much. They abuse knowledge and kill people with it. Most know-it-all people are so judgmental of others that they can't love deeply. Only those who have a heart for God knows the bottom line. His own hear his voice even in a world of lost sheep.
