The Zen Porch.


Maybe meditating on the porch has brought about the amount of Sun we've had lately here in West Seattle. Or, maybe yesterday being the beginning of the Bronze Age of time when the Sun's orbit has aligned with the Sirius sun on opposite axis but are ascending now, not descending anymore, has brought this to us. The sun's orbit definitely affects/coincides with our human conscience. So maybe since there's been full sun since yesterday morning, Seattle's outlook will from now on be sunnier than ever known before!

"The Song of the Conscious Ant"

This world can offer me the desires of my ego
This world can offer me the figments of my youth
I can carry my life on my back up to the top of the earth
I can stand at the edge of the corner of the continent
I can move like the sea and work like the bee
As though mine is the only work that exists
Until I reach the pinnacle of faith in God
And stand at the ledge of the western corner of the world
And shout up to the sky, to the universe, to the Heavens, to God,
"Can you see me now?!
I am an ant on this earth
Like a pin prick in a vast of holes
Conceived for one form in unity
I have no desire to be seen
No desires for any things
But, for the world I left for this one
The world of life in my dreams."

Just Another Day to Begin.

What if.. December 21st is just another day?
What if you woke up today and everything seemed to be just like the day before? 
What if something passed through our sleeping, vulnerable mind?
What if a change occurred?
What if it was a change in our conscience as a humankind?
What if suddenly everyone became aware that something was different.
What if it was easy to love.
Not possessive love. 
Love through believing.
Maybe a mass consciousness of human beings will believe finally love IS the way, the truth, and the life. 
What if you woke up today and felt different. 
What if you only had the capacity to love your neighbor as yourself. 
What if you woke today and you just knew your heart was opened wider. 
What if today the more people you past by the more love you felt for each of them. 
What if today you talked to a friend and noticed them with a new light and they in you.
What if Christ's love woke you up with blinding white light.
What if it encompassed your whole vision?
Like you've suddenly went blind
And had no control of opening and closing your eyes
You couldn't see anything at all but brilliant light.
All you could do was believe in the light.
What if that all occurs within us, and we have the choice to live in that light or fight against it within ourselves. 

"Fear not, for I am with thee"  Isaiah 41:10
"Be still and know I am God" Psalm 46:10
"The only thing to fear, is fear itself." FDR
"All the commandments: You shall not commit adultery, you shall not kill, you shall not steal, you shall not covet, and so on, are summed up in this single command: You must love your neighbor as yourself." Jesus Christ
A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another.  John 13:34



Choose to live in love. Nothing else. 


Not in fear. Not in judgement. Not in selfishness. Not in denial.
