This blog is more than an account of Near Death Experiences. It ponders in detail the tough questions of life. Who are you, and why are you here in this physical world? What happens when you die, and is there a judgment? However, most anything could appear here. This is not a news blog, archived posts are just as relevant as new posts. Check the boxes at the top of the page for the Contents, Contact, Forum and other links.
They are my friends,
cows, piglets and also hens
bunnies, puppies and kittens too
and horses just to name a few!
I shower all my friends with love
I give them kisses and lots of hugs!
They show me affection in different ways,
They bring me sunshine on gloomy days!
I cause no harm to those I love
from fish below to birds above!
I show them kindness and compassion
they are my friends, not food and fashion
Some of my friends have colorful feathers
some have fur for frigid weather,
some wear scales and slither around
some of my friends live underground
some have spots and some have stripes
some of my friends come out at night,
all the animals are the same
they just go by different names
they all want to live life happy and free
no different from you, no different from me!
They all are deserving of respect
that’s why I treat my friends the best!
So please show them love the way that I do,
because my friends are your friends too!
The new year is upon us. Now is the time to reflect, think back on 2019 and ask yourself: “What could I have done to make life better for myself?”
When you make life better for others, you automatically make it better for yourself. We are all connected together, in reality, there are no religions, no nationalities, no races, no countries or politics that separate us in the Spirit World, our real home. We are One. This year be kinder, more compassionate toward others no matter how different or diverse they may seem to you.
The paradox of our time in history is that we have taller buildings but shorter tempers, wider freeways, but narrower viewpoints. We spend more, but have less, we buy more, but enjoy less. We have bigger houses and smaller families, more conveniences, but less time. We have more degrees but less sense, more knowledge, but less judgment, more experts, yet more problems, more medicine, but less wellness.
We drink too much, smoke too much, spend too recklessly, laugh too little, drive too fast, get too angry, stay up too late, get up too tired, read too little, watch TV too much, and pray too seldom. We have multiplied our possessions, but reduced our values. We talk too much, love too seldom, and hate too often.
We’ve learned how to make a living, but not a life. We’ve added years to life not life to years. We’ve been all the way to the moon and back, but have trouble crossing the street to meet a new neighbor. We conquered outer space but not inner space.. We’ve done larger things, but not better things. We’ve cleaned up the air, but polluted the soul.
We’ve conquered the atom, but not our prejudice. We write more, but learn less. We plan more, but accomplish less. We’ve learned to rush, but not to wait. We build more computers to hold more information, to produce more copies than ever, but we communicate less and less.
These are the times of fast foods and slow digestion, big men and small character, steep profits and shallow relationships. These are the days of two incomes but more divorce, fancier houses, but broken homes. These are days of quick trips, disposable diapers, throwaway morality, one night stands, overweight bodies, and pills that do everything from cheer, to quiet, to kill. It is a time when there is much in the showroom window and nothing in the stockroom. A time when technology can bring this letter to you, and a time when you can choose either to share this insight, or to just hit delete.
Remember, spend some time with your loved ones, because they are not going to be around forever.
Remember, say a kind word to someone who looks up to you in awe, because that little person soon will grow up and leave your side.
Remember, to give a warm hug to the one next to you, because that is the only treasure you can give with your heart and it doesn’t cost a cent.
Remember, to say, “I love you” to your partner and your loved ones, but most of all mean it. A kiss and an embrace will mend hurt when it comes from deep inside of you.
Remember to hold hands and cherish the moment for someday that person will not be there again. Give time to love, give time to speak, and give time to share the precious thoughts in your mind.
AND ALWAYS REMEMBER:
Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.
