LED's Vs. Incandescent Bulbs - A Human Perspective

I don't consider myself the brightest bulb in the strand of Christmas Tree lights that comprise the intellect of humankind. I consider myself the Green Bulb on the Charlie Brown Christmas tree.

So, as I write this blog entry I'm humbled by the responses I've received. Honestly, I was expecting and prepared for ridicule. Anyone who knows me and has known me in the past must be shaking his or her head in disbelief as they read my writings.

It was when I received an email from my brother-in-law, an attorney for a much-revered university known for a surprisingly good football team and a target of an idiotic racist comment by a radio commentator, that I realized that my words and sometimes inconceivable messages given to me from other realms sparked the light within those I's not have expected.

My brother-in-law.. let's just call him "Sparky the Wonder Dude," sent me the article here: http://mobile.nytimes.com/2014/10/26/magazine/what-if-age-is-nothing-but-a-mind-set.html and wanted my opinion.

This is quite a lengthy article which espouses the opinions of scientists, researchers and medical professionals on the fact that thoughts and the mind can affect the mindset, body and, in effect, time, of an individual as the body ages.

I'll shorten the article a bit, if I may. The article is ripe with suppositions, research, control groups, placebo effect references and psychological gibberish (at times) that can easily lead one astray.
However, it is great article in that it explores the very real connection between mind and body, aging and perceived conceptions of what a human is to expect as one ages.

I'm no sage. I'm not gifted with anything more than any of us can claim to hold within. What frustrates me about the study within the article is that the researchers are so damn close to understanding the connection between mind, body and spirit.

What we think, we manifest. Thoughts are energy. Intentions are energy. Everything is energy. What we choose for ourselves, be it health, sickness, sadness, joy... we create that reality. Here's the kicker... time is fluid energy. And, just because we decided five years ago to create a living hell for ourselves (an example), doesn't condemn us to that hell. Here's another mind-blower.. we are capable of returning to that very time and altering those thoughts that created that present hell so that we are no longer living in the world that we previously created for ourselves.

Sure, the consequences of choices made stay with us, but the ultimate joy or regret, whichever we choose, can be gained by pure intention. Thoughts, prayer, meditation... all energy. That ugly-ass trinket of a gift on your mantle, it is a static form of energy. Everything.... I repeat, everything... is a form of energy. And the most powerful form of energy is thought and intention.

Sadly, as the article point out, most of society is blinded by outside influences and either refuses to look within or is incapable of looking within themselves. All that we ever need to know is within each of us but most can't quiet the mind long enough to listen and trust what they know is right and true.

The doctor tells you that you need medication. You listen to the doctor and pop the pills.
The newscaster tells you that you're in danger. Danger is the word you hear so you panic.
A friend tells you that a certain investment is gonna tank or be a winner... you listen.

But, do you listen to yourself? Do you listen to your inner voice? Those inner voices aren't imaginary. If I've learned anything through my journeys through the other realms it is that it is only the inner voices that matter. The messages that you receive when you ask for guidance or answers from the ones who have your life and interests as their Divinely-Inspired mission. This is your intuition, your guiding voice.

So, the writers of the NY Times article are on target, but just short of the true answer. We are all capable of eluding the debilitating aspects of age. And we are all victims of a societal view of time.

Time is fluid. Time doesn't exist unless you live by a clock. Time is an anomaly that humanity has accepted as a way to calculate lifespan.

The article above reminded me immediately of the movie, 'Coccoon'. The body ages, but the body is only a a cocoon for the butterfly that ultimately emerges as a being of light and beauty. The soul is the butterfly. The soul is energy. Energy never dies. Nor does the light that inhabits the universe.

What we believe, we become. What we expect, we receive. Believe and trust. I'm constantly receiving this message because I sometime have a difficult time with understanding what I can't see standing before me.

Then again, I never had an understanding of the Quantum world... until the day that I knew the physics of time and fluidity of being... you are given the knowledge and tools that you need in order to educate.

I hesitate to use the word 'enlightenment.' It is far too overused and generic these days. I prefer 'open' and 'aware'... and to those who understand, I look forward to working with you to bringing light upon the darkness in this world, despite the consequences.

Namaste, my friends.

Oh, and because we are who we are and are accepted as we are because we can reach others through words and personality, I'll end this in true fashion.....

Amen and Holy Shit...

Peace.
