 Turner Classic Movies, and the History Channel........ are two of the best cable network channels.

In one of my classical faves, Jimmy Stewart, the consummate actor, stars as Tom Destry, a tough lawman who doesn't like guns.lol ....And that could pose a problem when a saloon owner and a corrupt mayor plan to rob the local cowpokes blind. Marlene Dietrich is the crooked saloon waitress with the heart of pure gold. {ahem}

Somewhere, something incredible is waiting to be known.

He made science ----FUN!

             Ever in your life experiences, say to yourself, i love something or someone or some idea? I have. Yet saying  I LOVE and feeling  LOVE is vastly different. Then there is romantic love, admiration, reverence,  adoration.....love in all it's myriad forms. I speak to you from the positive spectrum of love, as opposed to something like lust, which is a twisted form of love. I won't go into any dirty details here. lol

  There's a 63 y o  friend of mine at work, he  has been married for over 40 years!

          Now that's some serious love! Love without conditions.

 I always tell him it would be my  honor to meet the woman who has put up with his bullcrap for that long.lol

My apologies people of the United States of America, I did NOT  FEEL UNITY, until  late last year, November 4TH 2009.

                              I speak from  the center

 {Why did it take you so long,  F0x6Fan?--- you might have already asked yourself in your mind? }

       "I don't know." ------would be my answer. Feeling and Thinking something can bring you two totally different life experiences. I can think that i have unity with someone. But that is a Far Cry from feeling unity.  Compare it to living in Whitefish Bay as opposed to living in the inner city.

" I Think, Therefore I Am,"--- should be reinterpreted to read,

                        "I FEEL, THEREFORE I AM."

        United we stand, divided we fall. Whether you descend  from ither an intense desire for Opportunity,  from hardworking Slaves ,  from hardworking Immigrants,  or Indigenous people to a  land who already knew what it was like to FEEL,  let me iterate this to you: let us continue to move forward, to take the next 365 days of  opportunity to be/do better.

Not with GREED, but with  COMPASSION. I will label this concept, the New American Dream.

  Now we began to FEEL again.

 FEEL the unity, when you proclaim, "... United States!"

  Better now than never. Better 2009 than ever. Better today,  forever.

     Happy New Year to all of the proud war veterans,  and a sincerest of gratitude to War Veteran, Sen. John McCain.

So, since i am the spiritualist here, and my pops happens to be the   71 y o, Korean war veteran,  i say "Thank You, Pops!" once again.

"Sometimes we have to fight for change,

 ....to bring about healthy change,

...sometimes we have to pray for peace,

 ...in order to bring about more balanced conditions,

Yet peace can only truly take seedling & flourish in one place,

and that is ........the place on the body which allows, embraces,  and has room for peace?

Every  blogger should know what place that is. Even a child would know the answer to this one. Go ahead--ask 'em?

                           They will tell you.

        Most people tend to hide the things they are ashamed of or don't want other people to know about.

We could use any particular subject at this moment....

.............but i will use money as an example here. Something we all ADORE. A common bond. Only a "fool" could hate money in this economy.

Yet we all possess conflicting ideas about currency.

We say, "The Love of money is the root of all evil/yet we can't get enough of it. Like sex."

       That is why nearly all of us hide our money, if you are fortunate enough to have any money left in your Savings Account/Money Market/ Portfolio, from the last eight years, to hide, that is.lol

If you are in debt to a major bank. Then you are enslaved. Debt=Slavery. Come on in friend, join the pity-party.

     Let me reiterate, we are not very open about our finances, unless you are, which makes you the exception to the rule. Still, the majority of americans consider money to be a private matter.  Among other things. Especially the wealthy.  I could use other examples, yet i will continue to use money as a prime example here.

                           Herein lies the underlying problem.

      If everyone knew everything, about everybody's money situation, there would be an uprising in our country, on our planet, the likes of which we have never seen!

      Money is so easy to hide. You can actually physically take it, and hide it. There are also all manner of means by which creative accountants can cause corporate money to be "hidden" or to "disappear."----POOF!

               Since money can be hidden, there is no way for anyone to know exactly how much anyone else has or what they are doing with it.

        This makes it possible for a plethora of inequity and under-the-table-dealings, to exist.

       Corporations can continue to pay two people vastly different wages for doing the same job. They can pay one person $57,000 a year, while paying the other $42,000 a year, for performing the same exact duties, identical functions, giving one employee more money than the other simply because the first employee has something the second employee does not.

What is it, you might ask??

Guess!

Listen.

Me and my older brother "Hank", are comparable to Christian Mythology's, Cain and Abel

                          Except this is the much kinder version.

                               Fire and Water. Dual co-existence.

                                    He's PC.  I'm a Mac.

      But we mutually have great Love and Admiration for one another's capabilities & abilities.

He's an avid Chess Player. Analytical, most of the time.

I am a Writer, Artistic by Nature. Intuitive, most of the time.

 I hate to generalize by using these silly labels, darn dual/nature of mine!

    Now.....back to  what i was  previously typing about again? Fact of the matter is- Occasionally, we both [[BUMP]] heads.

      So when i wish to end one of our occasional---

                  "Eternal Debates From Hell" 

                          I disarm my opponent---

    leaving them stunned.

                                      Checkmate.

I will ither walk away slowly, or nod my head,  or smile, or give the opposition ---a gift--- in the form of a tender compliment.

 I toss him a  token, a tiny ball of energy - "a flower of peace"

  Tensions tumble  like the Berlin Wall/defense mechanisms shut down/the "GUNZ" relax{metaphorically speaking of my two biceps here},  then we're both civil and balanced again, a truce is called.

Until there is another disturbance in the FORCE.

                                            lol

This ethereal dance will go on forever....until the end of time.

"I drop a pebble in the pond, and i allow these  waves to

                 {{{{{{{{{EXPAND}}}}}}}}

              o      u      t      w       a      r     d    

                    the ripples  flow into eternity, in every conceivable direction,

         compassionately creating where ever it will, on it's own,

                        naturally" *

                                              
   Or ...

I just drop a big BRICK in it---

---and tell him to SHUT THE HE** UP! --Man!!

                                                  
       LOL

                                              
        Peace.

           I'm a Cancer.......{Libra Rising}---also {Venus Rising}

That means i'm a Summer Child conceived in the constellation of the Scales,  and i come from a place of LOVE.

       I desire to make everyone around me feel at peace. I find peace when i maintain balance across the board.

             I perceive myself as Spiritual---and i am usually secretive/reserved/private when i'm just being myself.

  On the flip-side i tend to push limits/boundaries, taking the initiative, inviting you to step outside the BOX . After i hit 40 y o-----it was  I RESPECT WHAT YOU THINK----BUT I AM NOT ATTACHED TO IT -----OR THE OUTCOME---AND PEACE TO U.

                                  Alpha&Omega.

You will NEVER get rid of the EGO, that is quite impossible---------------it's WHO YOU ARE------to do so would mean giving up your Duality here,  you can only temper it and make peace with it. So do yourself a favor and do not deny your ego. It serves you. Bless it. 

                                    just TAME IT,

      Undeniably blessing the imagined self is called being honest with yourself.

Music like this tends to feed my E G O-----especially when i'm seriously working out in a gym.

Here's one of my NARCISSISTIC personal  favorites when i'm bobbin' my head to my mp3 player!

 --------LINKIN PARK!

           This  incredibly moving speech by Martin Luther King Jr immediately flashed through my mind on November 4TH 2008 after 10:00 pm.

--personally, It is the GREATEST SPEECH i have ever heard.

In this clip-----King speaks with  {{{{{{FIRE!!}}}}}}

       There was tremendous energy and power in that church. And you get a sense of the urgency at the time in the Black Community. 

     I can feel the energy/emotions they had that night as they gathered together---it's like i can channel it.

        Days that seem to be colored only in BLACK / WHITE......this was my perspective of watching old film in Junior High&HS as a teen.

Light----- versus the absence of light -----accurately reflecting the ideas at the time --forever embedded on  video.  

You Tube has a lot of these speeches & historic memories.

 Memories of those times when there was more "U N I T Y" in the word community.

{back in the day.}

  --- King's delivery here is impeccable,  you are  magnetized as you become focused on the man in the jam-packed church. His polarity/presence must have been overwhelming when he took the center stage.

Here on this video clip, Martin's  eyes  spew fire and his words are startling  prophetic, 

              The man  fearlessly channells the power of God  and you know without any shadow of a doubt intrinsically, that somehow he knew in his heart he was going to die soon......... there could have possibly been a death threat/threats, prior to this meeting,  that were  made to him personally or from unknown sources.

The next day he was assasinated.

 Finally, here's one of my favorite personal posts of 2008---and thanks for rehashing some ol' favorites & checking out my blogs this week:

         Bill Cosby provides the humor...the rest is history!

 Sorry ......Michael Jackson, moonwalking to Billie Jean, grabbing his crotch, tossing the fedora to young women-gone-wild,  will be excluded from this list because this is a family-oriented website!....but i will include the genious & legend who inspired him. Don't let your jaw hit the floor!

 .......

..and the Hardest Working Man Alive!!----reminds me of an anchor.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year  To Everyone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

observation posing as a question.

I am not saying yes or no, here 

  this is only my "TAKE"...[i shouldn't use that word, i don't want to get you-know-who mad at me]....i mean "my OBSERVATION",

That's better, it's more me, my mantra.

Why do i state women are more evolved??...this is too easy...LOL....let me give you an example. Highly evolved beings do not hit themselves over the head with a hammer, because it hurts. They also don't hit anyone else on the head with a hammer, for the same reason.

Evolved beings have noticed that if you hit someone else with a hammer, that person gets hurt. If you keep doing it, that person gets ANGRY. If you keep getting him angry he finds a hammer of his own and eventually hits you back!

Evolved beings therefore know that if you hit someone else with a hammer, you are really hitting yourself with a hammer. See the analogy here? It makes no difference if you have more hammers, or a bigger hammer. Sooner or later you're going to get whacked too.

Now,

...nonevolved beings---primitive beings---observe the same thing. They simply don't care.

Evolved beings are not willing to play "The One With The Biggest Hammer Wins."

Incidentally, this is largely a male game. Very few women are willing to play Hammers Hurt. They play a new game. They say, " If I had a hammer, I'd hammer out justice, I'd hammer out freedom, I'd hammer out love between my brothers and sisters, all over this land."

p.s. unless you piss them off ----and god forbid don't irk them on that certain day---women really do rule the world

behind every great man is an even greater woman.

"I know you're out there."

"I can feel you now."

"I know that you're afraid."

"You're afraid of us."

"You're afraid of CHANGE."

"I don't know the future."

"I didn't come here to tell you how this is going to end."

"I came here to tell you how it's going to begin."

"...I'm going to show these people what you don't want them to see."

"I'm going to show them a world ...without you, John, without you, Bush."

"A world without rules or controls, without borders or boundaries."

"A world where anything is possible."

"Where we go from there...."

"...is a choice i leave to you, the American people."

Tomorrow we revisit the conventional theory, are women more evolved than men? --We all know the answer to that one, now don't we?

 Here's one i wrote last APRIL:

 Enjoy.

I was in my bathroom,  doing what i do to get ready for work and guess what happened a little after four thirty this morning in my bedroom???   NOPE.

.....not what you're thinking....

I got a weight bench in my bedroom and the 225 pounds of weights starts "CLANGING" FOR NO REASON..........i swear i thought it was a GHOST

So i just stood there and  watched in horror as my weight bench shook and my weight plates banged together  for about two minutes. My window was open and the breeze coming in was cool and soft,

Hasn't been this much ACTION  in my bedroom in two weeks folks!!  :)

EEEEAAAAARRRTTTTTHHHHQQQUUUUUAAAAAAKKKKEEEEEE!!!!!

True Story. I swear.

Giving and Receiving.

This is a repeat post of a blog i wrote back on May 04, 2008.

I just feel the message is appropriate now for those who have lost a bit of focus when you feel the urge to pull out that plastic card and follow the mainstream crush to find that perfect Holiday gift.

Is it better to give than to receive? It really doesn't matter. Spend money -- go ahead--- shop until you drop if that makes you FEEL good. There is absolutely nothing wrong in that.

It's not about how much money you spend anyway, or how many gifts you give

or how many times you insist that you go to church or believe in God,  nope God loves all of us

It's not even about how many times you say the rosary, fast, meditate, beat yourself up, or admit you have "sinned",  it's not even the number of (mistakes) you made,  because you surely won't stop making mistakes until the day you die.

Life's  true meaning is?

                    JUST BE

......BE!!!!!!!!.......or not to be ...that is the question,...(didn't i hear this somewhere before??lol)   so be,   [happy, sad, depressed,  joyful, free-spirited, lonely, content, angry-etc.]

We are constantly in a process  of  BECOMING.

Our only real enemies besides ourselves, are guilt and fear, because it keeps us from living the full passionate life we are all meant to live, OR BECOMING THE PERSON WE IMAGINE OURSELVES TO BE.......get it?!

Oh, i forgot ..........what good is all this if you do not show your fellow brothers and sisters COMPASSION.

We are all spiritual brothers and sisters.

So Give.....Give......Give,     

     GIVING AND RECEIVING ARE THE SAME THING

What i give to another ...........in ultimate-reality i am giving to myself.

This is why our hearts swell up when we do something nice for someone besides our self.

                      It's "self" giving to "self"

.......the highest and ultimate truth of them all  is that there is only                      ONE OF US

---but you have to BOUNCE back quick!--

and keep it smooooth.      with just a pinch of humor...
