Dear men and fathers, we love, appreciate, honour, and celebrate you today and every day. We apologize for any instances when and where we have misunderstood or misrepresented you, and we ask that you be patient with us as we learn more and more each day just how perfectly to love, cherish, inspire, nurture, and preserve you. To all the poppas who may be physically separated from their children for small or large portions of their lives, we - the community promise to be patient with you and do our best not to judge you...all we can offer is advice; make the most of the time you share - not spend - with your line, and when you are not around, those who truly care will re-inforce to the children that "yes, your daddy does love you." To all the men who may not have had children, every day offers a chance to become one for there are so many 'unclaimed' children in the world and on this island alone, who would love to benefit from all that you have to share. Women, our men are necessary and crucial to the world. Let's not cause them to feel like boys while expecting them to behave "like" men. Give a man space when needed or just because, inspire, protect and good-love him; we don't need to take it personal because it isn't personal. A man will be a man when we simply let him be. Okay that's enough for now...til next time Happy Father's Day...

TOTAL RECALL

"Total Recall"
It is true that the mind is a powerful mechanism. It is also true that there is something - an intangible yet definite something, that perhaps is even greater than the mind - the memory...the one which recalls lives lived before and travels from as far as the most distant star. That memory is the one that leads us to have flashes of inexplicable intuition, recollections of interactions with people we are 'now' meeting, yet feel we have known all our lives; it's the one that triggers episodes of deja-vu...the one that sends the muse to help channel that special song or that powerful painting...it's the one that guides the wrinkled hands of old ladies to ailing tummies of little babies...it's the memory that causes the clairvoyant to see something that others only half-believe until confirmation manifests itself...it's the one that ushers us into other realms at night, when we unplug and recharge from our daily ritual of devoting our life source to the matrix...that memory is real...


There's something very special about it...the memory of knowing all this before...of understanding that every morsel of every thing is one minuscule part of a very huge system that existed long before the hands of time were tied behind the world's back, and re-constructed by mortal man...causing him to forget his memory...

THOUGH We...

Though we are yet to meet in this lifetime my soul recalls you since our breath first began blowing across the ocean which attempt to separate us

Space & Time

When a woman loves a man she has yet to meet, she is given a chance to learn how to be patient and prepare an open space in her heart and universe for him...for she knows that their souls have already danced in the cosmos, and it is merely a matter of space and time before they are reunited again...

Kindness - Part I

KINDNESS - PART I

In response to being overcharged by someone who had once been extremely kind to him, Eddy said quite calmly to me, "Patcherooni (nickname), it's just money...it comes and goes, and by law, returns. When someone has shown you extreme and genuine kindness during a time when you needed it most, all the money in the world means very little. Some people would surrender their entire fortune, just to experience a morsel of genuine kindness... " #Mentor

Fragile ~ Part II

He touched her as if she were the most fragile thing on earth, not because he thought she was breakable, but because he knew that “fragile” really means ‘Handle With Care.”

DISTRACTIONS

Lust, sloth, and gossip have no place in the midst of war and life; they are nothing more than an absent-minded distractions that consume otherwise valuable time and energy, and draw you further away from nurturing your mind, fulfilling your destiny and growing forward
