What is it that is between here and there that I don’t have?
What is the purpose of dying? (To Live)
What is the purpose of living? (To Die)
Why must we live
&
Why must we die
What is the order and does it exist?
What is the opposite of entropy?
Could it exist where nothing is random

Random thoughts on writing and the impetus of wanting to write…sorting through contemplatively the matrix of what is, and what is not…never titled, just threw on a title today (July 26, 2017)…finally writing a bit….maybe in an attempt to escape entropy
A man in love will drive hundreds of miles to date his beloved, but once a man has that woman, if the love he thought he had turns out to be lust, his interest to drive a thousand miles for a piece of ass vanishes.
I want a man who would drive a thousand miles to be with me today, and everyday like it was the first. His love for me witnessed by his yearning to be with me, I will see as a love that is true.
In the beginning of relationships, a man will linger on every word of his beloved. If he lets other things in his life take precedent, he will no longer have time to listen and will become impatient, and most intolerable. A woman senses the things a man becomes intolerant of, and if they signal that it is something she is doing quite naturally, then she knows her natural self is being denied its existence, and off to more fertile ground will her heart yearn to plant. For how can love thrive when the cultivating of love does not take precedent? Often love comes quite naturally, and often the tiller of the soil is necessary to sacrifice in the cultivation in order to reap what he sows. Men listen, women listen for even in love you reap what you sow, yet love is a gift to continually give, for God gives us this very gift continually. If we mimic the Father, will he be pleased, I think he is, and more yet he knows that is what it takes for us to be well pleased.
Is there a righteous man left to teach the ways of the Lord to his wife. Why are so many women so fearful of submission to a Godly man? Are they in fear of the very man they claim to love when they take a man to wed? Why would a woman want a man she did not respect to care for her every need under the direction of God? Women live in fear these days to be in subjection to men, and often that is the very man they marry. I believe it is they know inside their man is not a man of God, and that is at the root of their fear to submit! Yet herein is a paradox, for we are all children of God, if we so choose to be.
Can love thrive and bare fruit, when ye keep your garden dry?
I yearn to know the ways of the Lord. For I want to know how to keep my garden full of the flowers, and the fruits of his blessings, for to be without his instruction is to be back in the void. Out of the void we came, do we return there if we fail to see and hearken to his eternal wisdom? I believe to be born in this life is a blessing. In essence to go beyond the void is our purpose, to return to God pure and undefiled. It is his teachings, to heed Christ to cleanse the blemishes by daily renewal to walk toward the light, for by walking toward the light is the best way to be walking in the light. The baptism is a continual cleansing, the more muck and corruption of the world caked on us, there needs to be an awareness of what one must do to keep the filth away. To tread back on those same paths again is like a child playing in the mud never learning of the beauty underneath it all. Why play ye with dogs in pits where vicious men barter their souls in their drunken wanton escapades where the vanity to escape into their power plays is a snare that captivates the innocent and the fools? Get ye up and clean yourself off and tread not there again. Wipe the dust of their corruption off your feet! Wipe the dust of your own self-deceit off your feet, for your purpose is not completed ever in such filth.

Note: A man in love, taps the well spring of the divine, with arms wide open in surrender his well never runs dry….the Christos manifestation in actions of emulation…where miracles happen, and the spirit lifts and dances in delight…the body is lifted by every cell bathed in this wondrous light.
Be it shared on a Birthday, Christmas, or Valentine
You had mine
and oft it was treated treacherous
The life we created
you wished to be obliterated
There was no love there
I mistook you for someone with a heart to share
Can’t you tell
You taught your lesson well
Not to care
and even though I do dare
To care
it is from a distance
from a different point of view
Over now is my penance
of my charity to you…
Entertain me no more that I’m your valentine
For there was a time when this could have been
That time has now passed my friend
Take your heart and go in peace
Find the warmth of your desire
For all the coldness of your acts I release
Inward a breath
A sigh held high let out
To unfold my grief
In acceptance of our death
I find relief
No longer are you my lord, nor sire
So put out the fire
of those thoughts
Go on to create new dots
But leave me be
For the sake of my sanity
In my heart you are and always will you be
Yet my love for you has been set free
It is no longer mine to give thee
I wanted to keep you all to myself
but the butterfly I knew would die
I tried to give love to you, the nectar of my life
So unselfishly we have to part
Because I know I’m not the one
Who’ll fill your heart

Note: After an 18 month relationship, he did not want to move from one coast to another at that time, and said he’d come later, and I knew then I would leave and not look back…yet he is the one looking back time and time again….now it haunts him what he gave away…
I have loved and died incomplete…and now I surrender

Note: Within a transition and reflective period after divorce, still out on a limb, going through a spiritual cleansing of my internal house, the ego wrestling with falling away…its death is never silent, as it makes one question everything and make one feel as though they want to die, but it’s just the ego that needs to die….give it up and release its choke hold…surrender to love, and come to be in the accepting of what is… in the present moment. Every time the ego rears its head, and puts one in a spin of depression, don’t do its bidding, snuff it out…through endless deaths, each and every time it surfaces…take notice, but ultimately it will need to be killed off, lest it kill you time and time again. It is a process.
You ask why an autograph; perchance a brush with fame. Yet, I know we’re all the same. This you know as well. That is why your hearts opened up your home to charity. No matter how big or small, rich or poor we may all be, the human existence opens up us all to sacrifice. We all live and we all die and what is it all for? In this life we have a chance to be remembered. My asking for your name was so I could be remembered and so my daughter will remember our little brush with fame. Yet, I know we’re all the same. We all have our ups and downs, our here’s and there’s and all arounds. But if our hearts stay true, our souls may have the chance to be pure. From our darkest moments, we can set new goals, and not be victims of the past. So may all the hungry hearts be fed, so they may have the chance to set goals to enrich their lives.
