The New Vision

Response, finally will speak about my NDE.

Have always felt the way I do, but much more so, since that experience. Without a word, I knew there were others like me, and felt estranged from the life I had known and I changed my relationships with everyone in my life, and changed my life.

All felt I had become a stranger, but I had become myself and not what they wanted me to be for them. Now, I accept people for who they are in understanding and wisdom and allow myself to be who I am, with good motives at the core of what I do, even though I make mistakes, it’s o-k.

Love covers all and most people are not able to realize this. I sense my ability to make all comfortable, or uncomfortable within themselves, just by being who I am. I am free to be me and feel and heal and learn and wonder and accept and change and live and hope and know.

Peace and love shall be with me and I hope I can help others to live well in harmony for the purpose we were created. I have wonderful friends who say I am wonderful. People who are greedy and power hungry get angry with me for not using my potential to be somebody. I know I am already more than that and have more than I need, have purpose and growth in ways superior to power and money that fade with the person who strives for that.

I feel that I have so much to learn and experience. I am weary sometimes from the life I have had to deal with in the loss and suffering of others I love, but I go on and rejoice, to live still more here, for there is a purpose and usefulness to my life so I must not misuse this gift and insight.

I say these things in truth, most humbly and gratefully.

Tearing Down Walls

One of the scariest things I’ve ever done in my life is tearing down the walls I’d been building around me over the years. And now, as from time to time I dare to take a careful look over the edges of my fortress, I’m completely astonished by what I see. I see a world full of beautiful benevolent and loving people, kind and positive towards me and each other. And I often see and feel what I call a sea of love. It seems to be radiating to every corner of the world and it’s warming my body and soul like the sunshine. Don’t look too far, It’s here and now, in this world.

And I wish this love for you all,
Love, Joost

Seeking Self

All I needed was to be needed,
so I would awkwardly try to please,
doing helpful tasks to be greeted,
but, my efforts only got me teased.

By all odds, I wished to get on line,
I wanted to laugh, and sing their song,
but my attempts were treated as whines,
I was so not destined to belong.

So I quit trying to please others,
stopped waiting for them to accept me,
began to realize their druthers,
was enlightened it could never be.

Alone, I searched a different way,
a special life sculptured for myself,
it must be honest and laws obeyed,
no common stroke, borrowed off the shelf.

Somehow decided to just be me,
to follow my heart and my feelings,
to live my life and let others be,
there couldn’t be any fake dealings.

Preferred to go where the wind chases,
and high water leaps in briny foam,
I saw weird people in strange places,
learned odd ideas wherever I roamed.

I gathered fast winds in my pocket,
Ocean waves rippled ‘neath my red boots,
I rambled with the ancient prophets,
but, I’ve no longing to plant my roots.

Holding knowledge of eternity,
I sought to put wisdom in my life,
we humans need a fraternity,
founded on sweet harmony, not strife.

I gained knowledge, but savvy, little,
my journey brought questions, few answers,
life is ultra complex, and brittle,
truth be known by fortunate chances.

I now will listen to others views,
consider them as good as my own,
read and analyze the breaking news,
my obsession be the great unknown.

Apprising my needing to belong,
I’m quickly accepted where I roam,
passers wish to acknowledge my song,
many faraway lands I call home.

Emerged satisfied as my own man,
belonging to All-That-Is Oneness,
love “all others” has gained a new fan,
filled with compassionate abundance.

Running Scared

Have you met them? They go to church and want everyone to know. They use every opportunity to show how religious they are, how they do everything for the Lord. They speak of how they give their money and attend every service.

They tend to be critical of people who don’t attend church. Try talking others into being “saved” and going to church with them. Often mention a harsh judgment for not believing.

Among other things, they are against people who are Gay, they are against Doctors who give abortions, they are against people of different race or religion. They are difficult to get along with due to the proselytizing. But please don’t be unkind to them for they are running scared.

They are afraid of death, they are afraid of being judged and not measuring up to what God wants them to be, and therefor left out of the Love God gives to His children.

They don’t know that God is Love. They don’t understand, nor follow, the teachings of Jesus. They live in fear instead of love. They don’t know they are safe and secure in God’s love at all times and through all things.
