ah
no churches for
me
no temples
no books
but bless you
for going
a may be a bridge
to your truth

I see
these so called
holy books
and find lies
mixed with truth
(as I see it)
how can men
have written these words
and how can men
worship these words
and how can you
say "god inspired"
when these words have caused wars
and how can you say "prayer works"
when the hospital beds
are filed with dying praying
and when someone dies
they say
it was god's will
but my god
whoever that is
only has the will
of life and love

So true Jim,

But don’t let the fallacy of one religion bring you down.

A broken religion does not equate to a broken God.

God is simply different from that description.

I wish I could convey to you the beautiful of God as I know Her.

Unfortunately this isn’t easy because words fall short of Her beauty.

Suffering is not what you think.

Dying is not what you think.

Life is not a one-shot deal.

You neither came to be on the day you were born.

Nor will you cease to exist when you die.

There are so many things that are taken for granted in the old mythological fairytales that simply have no basis in truth.

God is with you always, inseparable, knowing your every thought, experiencing your every sorrow, and your every joy.

No need to grovel on your knees to beg for the forgiveness of the sins of other men.

Don’t expect any miracles in this life other than the miracle of life itself.

All is just, even though it may not seem to be that way at the moment.

Eternity is beyond our comprehension.

Our troubles are but the blink of an eye.

Our joys but a fleeting shadow of the now.

Don’t contemplate what could have been.

Don’t focus on the past.

What did you have when you entered this world?

What belongs to YOU?

Can you lose something you never really owned?

Pain and agony are only a measure of the difference between the way things are and the way we’d like them to be.

Acceptance of what is, is key,...

And knowing that you are this universe.

You came out of it.

You will return to it.

There is no where else to go.

There is no other time in which to cease to exist.

Eternity is now, and now is forever.

Here’s a clue Jim,…

YOU HAVE THE POWER!

To brighten someone else’s day!

Are you using your power Jim?

Or are you wallowing in a dream of what could have been but never came to pass?

Take no thought of the morrow.

Don't dwell within the past.

Now is the eternal light of being.

What are you doing now? flowerforyou

huh The promises we keep?

The words fall empty on a page,
when the actions and the words,
are so far from similiar
that hypocrite comes to mind.

A worthy example of hypocrisy.

Hypocrite!!? Your email was filled with so much unreality that you're hurting who you think you're(whatever you're doing) and then at the end of the email, how I can be whole and complete, the unreality of your comments and that somehow you know wholeness, made me for the first time feel uncomfortable on this site, and you weren't there, did you hear our phone calls, read our mail to each other, but you know so much, please, communicating on the computer is cool, but don't lose sight of reality, it's very disturbing how we lose sight over truth, hovering over these keys.
Try to be honest!
