The only way to truly live is to first experience death. To see the light in someones eyes; the light that holds all their hopes, all their dreams, flicker and die like a candle in the wind. Only then does one realize how precious, but short, life is.
We are held by the chains of civilization, we are not allowed to do the things we most want to. Rules are binding us down, keeping us from what we most want. Life is too short for us not to live in all it’s glories. Think about what you most want to do, is it hindered? If so, think about what blocks you from it: Rules, laws, money, fear? Please, live your own life, don’t force things upon yourself or others, take risks. The worst thing that could happen would be for you to lose your own life; but what is life, without experiencing it?
Why do we seek to destroy that which we do not understand. We attempt to drive so called “Demons” from things that are different from the norm of civilization, but we don’t really know the truth. Everything is beautiful, from the grace of God to the bowels of hell. Contradictions are the most wonderful of these. Differences make us who we are. No one is perfect, there is no “Superman” to model the human race after. Don’t try to force others to be like you, and don’t follow in anyone’s shoes. Live without fear of how others see you. Love only those that love you; it’s okay to hate, everything has a darker side.
I am dying. From the moment I was born, I started to die, and I have accepted that. I don’t want to live forever, in fact, I don’t even want to live to a “ripe old age”. Better to die young and happy, than to grow old and senile. The time must come for all things to die. For me that step into the unknown has come and gone long ago. When my time comes, I will have no regrets. I’ve made my peace with the world. There is a saying “Only the dead may live.” And this is true. Only those that have resigned themselves to their fate, can live a life without fear. Some may say I am crazy, insane, or just plain stupid for thinking the way I do, but I’m not. I’m just a man who has nothing to fear from death. . . I am already dead.
Just recently there was a bombing in Oklahoma. 200 injured, 200 missing. . . and 31 killed, 12 of which were children of ages 1-7. These children never experienced life, they will never see the light of another day. Never laugh, never cry, never love again. . . In an instant 31 lives were wiped from the face of the earth. How could someone do this, we are America, this isn’t supposed to happen here. This is a cowardly act of violence that cannot go unpunished. I pray their deaths were at least quick and not at all painful, and I pray that th children’s families will get over this terrible loss. . . At any other time, I would say, life goes on. . . but for these people, and possibly many many more, it has come to an abrupt end.
Can you not hear Mother Nature’s cry for peace as she weeps in pain. Her tears are shown in the wonderful raindrops that fall from the sky. Her love and affection are known by the gentle brush of the wind upon our cheek, and her strength is felt in the earth beneath our feet. But still, we continue to torment her. We cut down trees that have been around longer than many of our ancestors for such purposes as to create this sheet of paper that I write this testiment on, and what gives us the right to hunt animals who have become all but extinct, just for the pelt or the sport of the hunt. Animals kill for food, but what we kill for makes us far more beastial than they. And what we put into the grounds we walk on, the air we breathe, and the water we drink makes no sense to me. But Mother Nature’s anger can be felt in the many floods, tornadoes, hurricanes, earthquakes, and fires that plague our land. Our resources are limited, but we freely poison them. . . Freely poison our lives. . . Think about it, people
Love can be the most precious thing to ever happen to a person, but it can also be the most devastating. You can not live a life without love, but keep an open mind. Don’t let it wholly consume you. Remember, nothing lasts forever.
I no longer believe in this statement. I have found love, but it is not glorious and wonderful. It is a deep burning within my chest. Everytime I see her, my spirit becomes saddened. I have failed in my quest. In an instant, all of my testimonies became meaningless. . . I no longer know what I believe in.
