Pretended To Swim

Pretended to Swim…




(Written in 2006)

You can’t see the wind…just the rustling of the leaves…
but can you feel my spirit trying to set your Love free…?
you can move a mountain right before your very eyes…
but can you feel my spirit speaking within your mind…?

to the brotherhood…with Paradise Father, above…?
or is your Love growing colder? as you grow older…
talk the talk…work your games…say you Love your neighbor…
but hide the truth, just the same…point that finger to blame…
when your life comes to its end…you pretended to swim…?

What kind of friend is it that never comes around…
never takes time to talk his differences out…
he puts himself above you, but never on a par…
makes no effort to change…keeps his love in a jar…

Do you know the way to the spirit kingdom of Love…
to the brotherhood…with Paradise Father, above…?
or is your Love growing colder? as you grow older…
talk the talk…work your games…say you Love your neighbor…
but hide the truth, just the same…point that finger to blame…?
when your life comes to its end…you pretended to swim…?

Now, brothers and sisters, in this present age of self…
fence sitters keep their Love locked up in a mental swell…?
so absorbed in yourselves…you are deaf, dumb and blind…
is this is the reason why we are so far behind…?

Do you know the way to the spirit kingdom of Love…
to the brotherhood…with Paradise Father, above…?
or is your Love growing colder? as you grow older…
talk the talk…work your games…say you Love your neighbor…
but hide the truth, just the same…point that finger to blame…?
when your life comes to its end…you pretended to swim…?

You masturbate your sacred book and you still close your eyes…
turn your backs on your brothers until the day you die…
maybe they will find your dead bodies in that dry riverbed…
where you intellectualized truth, but pretended to swim…

Do you know the way to the spirit kingdom of Love…
to the brotherhood…with Paradise Father, above…?
or is your Love growing colder? as you grow older…
talk the talk…work your games…say you Love your neighbor…
but hide the truth, just the same…point that finger to blame…?
when your life comes to its end…you pretended to swim…?

maybe they will find your dead bodies in that dry riverbed…
where you intellectualized truth, but pretended to swim…
 
pretended to swim…

You Are the Victim of Your Own Mind | Any Questions?

 you are the victim of your own mind You Are the Victim of Your Own Mind  Any Questions? Victimization by Others vs. Self-victimization Is there a point where early victimization (by others) in childhood is no longer other-victimization but self-victimization? At what age could this be said to be true? Being victimized by parents (one or both), by foster parents (one or both), by a step-dad or step-mom (or both), an uncle, an aunt, a cousin, etc. begins a life-long tragedy of suffering in the mind of the victimized individual. But when the victimization by another or others stops (for whatever reason), at what point do you continue on in self-victimization , when you are old enough to make a different choice? The answer is likely that of personal choices to grow or to not grow in soul-awareness. In my own experience, it took until 29 years of age to make a different choice--a soul-conscious choice to no longer victimize myself and start down the path to healing. It took 11 more years b

Is Heaven on Earth Fiction or a Possibility?

 is heaven on earth Is Heaven on Earth  Fiction or a Possibility? Questions Are the "Keys" to "Unlock" the Mysteries of the Universe Inside YOU! Do you ever get that eerie feeling that "the more things change the more they stay the same?" Perhaps you have never even thought about this?  So many individuals are born, live, and die without ever questioning much of anything. Are you one of such unquestioning individuals?  Are you with me--aware that I've already asked four questions and haven't even really begun this article, yet?  Why do you suppose it is that you rarely, if ever ask any questions, and I ask questions almost continually? Could the difference be that in your perception your be LIE f system the asking of questions is " not allowed? " And the reason I may freely ask question after question is because I chose and choose to "allow" myself to ask any and all questions? Is Heaven on Earth a Conceptual Fiction? If this q
