Life



     It's Spring here in Minnesota and it is amazing. Life is coming from all directions and the sun is so warm and gentle. In my life right now, there is so much hope for the world that I am bursting. The coming of new life has opened my heart once again and the dark places have been lit.  This reminder of Spring, this reminder of life and nature has left me without words. When everything seems to be going down hill in the world, life still goes on. The plants still grow, the sun still rises, and the rivers and streams still run. Even in the places where there has been great destruction, the smallest most precious plant will still try to make it's way into the world. Life is abundant. Everywhere. And I tell myself,  I can't wait until everyone can feel this joy. I can't wait until the world can feel abundant to everyone. Where no one suffers. Where humans can be as alive and bright as the plants and animals around us. Shouldn't we be able to thrive too?



Our Earth has so much to say. So many lessons. We need to listen more. Breath more and live more with the Earth.


     These are my latest thoughts. An open heart and love is the only thing that is going to heal this Earth and ourselves. I hope that this made you feel and think. I also hope that when you read this, you want to go outside and embrace this gift of life. The gift that even when everything is going wrong, we still have a patch of grass, or a garden, or even the sky, or a place to put our feet. To be grateful that we are not just floating around like meaningless dust. We have meaning. We are life. Life has meaning.

A prayer to Japan

I've never been in a situation where I am truly worried for my life. I have never been in a situation where I don't know if there will be enough food to eat. I've never been in a situation where the world seems like it is going to end. But I can only begin to imagine the terrors that have crossed so many people's minds in Japan.
I want to dedicate this post to Japan. I want to dedicate this moment, this thought, and this hope to Japan and all it's people. And I want you to do the same. By thinking of the people there and sending them energy, you are doing the equivalent of donating money to the Red Cross. You are sending the people of Japan hope, trust, and love and that is just as good as sending money. So take this time in your day to pause, and to think of all the worries that are floating around Japan. Then imagine the worries suddenly disappearing and in their absence, imagine a healing light to all of those who are in need. And healing light to the Earth. By doing this, you have done a ton.

Thanks for your support. Japan needs you!

Education - The Big Picture

     One thing you have to know about me is that I am very passionate about changing education for the better. This is also a huge topic for me and iv'e been putting it off. I just have so much to say, and so I think I will be dividing the posts into parts. If anything, just to help my brain sort through my points and theories.

     The Big Picture: I think that funding is a huge part of what education revolves around and in order to get funding, you need standards. If the schools do not show that their kids are learning a certain amount of information, then they get no money from the Government. Therefore, standards or grades are pushed more than anything in schools. That's how many people look at standards anyways. Many people think that they are there for funding, and they are. But standards are also a way to make sure that everyone has a certain amount or a standard amount of knowledge. This sounds good, right? I think that we all should have a basic knowledge of the world around us, but standards can also be a tool to make sure that we are taught only specific things. Now, i'm only talking about in America because I don't have a right to judge other countries education. 
     Is this making sense? All I am trying to point out is the possibility of yet another way to keep the human potential down. I'm also trying to point out that through funding, the Government controls schools. They control what standards need to be met and therefore, since schools are based on reaching those standards, they control what America's children learn. Now, in other posts (Biology of Belief)  iv'e talked about how belief controls our thoughts and even our biology. If we are taught to think a certain way, then we are affecting our health and our world. Schools these days only introduce one way of thinking, making kids believe that there is only one way. When really, the possibilities of the universe are so vast we can't even comprehend them. So, through money, or funding, the Government influences how America's kids think, grow up, and how they choose to live their lives.

There are also thousands of wonderful schools too though. And that is the miracle that is happening everyday.  People are waking up and doing their jobs to inspire kids and teens not only in America, but all over the world. People are working hard to bring the wonders of learning back into everyday schools. Amen to that. May we all work for the better of others. 

Peace everyone!

Let's set our goals higher then just turning off all the lights for a while. Let's set our goals to making a true difference.

Creatures From Our Past Still Alive?

     Today I was reading about sightings of Dimorphodon Pterosaur or what the locals call Ropen (Demon-flyer).  There have been several sightings of the prehistoric birds all over Papua New Guinea.  The site that I was reading about this said that the people of Papua New Guinea are terrified of it because it preys at night and has been known to pray on very large livestock.  Anyways, a picture is worth a thousand words right?  So you decide for yourself whether it's true or not...  

 


 


     Could this be true? Could we really still have dinosaurs left on the Earth? If so, then we might have to re-look the story of how the dinosaurs died out in the first place.  Because if this prehistoric creature is real, then something in our theory is wrong. What do you think? 

Just a note, these pictures where from the website The Truth Behind The Scenes and I give them full credit for these photos.

On a more positive note...

        I've realized over the past few days that most of my posts are quite negative and they pretty much all talk about what is wrong in the world. But the truth is, is there is also so many good things happening in this time too. People are beginning to realize how powerful they are and they are starting to help others to find the power within too. People have also realized that they are not victims of the universe, they are part of it. Connected to it, just like everything else is. Everything is part of a cycle and nothing ever goes wrong, it's all for a reason. And so, when I talk about the things that I think need to be questioned, I am only trying to make you think and find connection with what sounds right to you. The world is made up of so many different views and no one is right. We all are. We are all right. We just have to learn how to have our own views and live with others who have theirs. There is no right way to look at things.
     So, since this blog is usually a bit dark, I have to say that we as a people are "waking up" and there is hope. We just have to take action and gather together. We are not meant to live the stressful lives that we live. We are meant to thrive! To be happy!
     So lift up your head, reach out a hand to the ones in need, and step up into your power. That, is what people are doing all over the world - Lets join them.
