About Five Minutes

 You can express your thoughts and feelings in easy tones. You can help people grow by surrounding them with positive reinforcement rather than negative consequences. Reward brings better results than punishment for people of all ages. The world is already harsh enough, we need not add stressors in order to encourage growth in the people we interact with. We can evolve every society through care and support. It starts everywhere and everyone must get involved. A country can be changed by bringing life supporting supplies which opens doors to ease of mind so the people can focus on mental development. We can use armed forces to protect food and building supplies that are being distributed to people in need across the globe for less than evey country has spent on bombing other countries into poverty. We can limit the gap in income and allow everyone the opportunity to earn enough money to have a nice, well kept place to live and health inspiring food on their tables. We can show our ...

 I have been inspired by many men in my life, from family members to those I never knew but who made me push my mind. I try to find a lesson through every person I meet, and there has been so much inspiration given to me by wonderful and wise women in my life, but right now I will stick with the men who have brought something memorable to my life. My father has taught me so much; from patience as he watched me work through my own mistakes, trying to give me guidance which I always accepted so slowly over time, rarely when it would have been the most useful. As I have watched him keep his body strong and able to play throughout his life, I learned that staying in good shape allows me to play at things that have brought me joy and energy since I was young; two wheeled toys are so much fun. I have also learned independence, which sometimes makes things harder, but keeps me working to always push myself to take on challenges. My uncles, which are varied and have been gifts stretched...

At this moment and for about a month something new is living within my body. It is amazing to consider how I have bacteria living in and on my body which are so many generations old that they go back to my birth. They were carried by my mother and were part of my initial colonization, little adventurers seeking to extend their lineage by being part of the world as Jason. It is doubtful that all the strains have survived, but there must be babies of babies so many generations back that make up my bodies current world.  The new resident that seems to have found a home within my skull is acting similar to other colonized creatures, in that it is not currently trying to kill me or make me feel bad in general. It seems to have found a hiding spot in some nasal cavity near my right ear; I say this because since it first entered I have had the almost continuous woosh of my blood moving through that ear. It is interesting to consider a small colony of this new resident living there, having...

 Death is a part of every life, either you are working your way to it or your working your way through a full life on the way to it. How you choose to live your life can have such an affect on what you get from living. I know the desire to sit and watch shows or just eat whatever junk food you can and then sleep, it is all so readily available. We can easily let the world spin as we quietly slip into death without leaving much behind for the people that remain. But the more you do the more stories you have to tell, and if you try to learn a little as you move through your activities the better prepared you will be to share something that others may be able to use down the road. Getting out there and doing things is also an amazing way to keep the body from deteriorating too fast and helps to retain muscle for better mobility as you age. Living to be an active person taking in experiences can bring you joy and pull wonder back into life. Start small, if you spent the last ten years ...

 As a portion of everything I recognize that I include light within the full spanse of my being and it helps to create the great layers of existence that are available for us all to be. But I am not fooled by what energy is and how the layers of experiential forms take on their own roll and follow individuated paths with light and dark moving through them. We are all a combination pack just by being. I am the deepest depth of non existence and I am all possibilities of whatever creative play can bring awareness to that point. As form I will find an end and decay will begin, if things go right the remains will be burned up and reconnected to the earth. If I end up being buried without extra chemicals being added that would be fine too, just for the clean earth connection. But along the way to that point I will experience life in many ways. My life has included cuts, bruises, broken bones and many different physical pains. I have felt depression, sadness, fear and everything that c...

 When someone has hurt you, no matter the intention of the action against you, it can leave a scar like a brand that was placed on on your mind and heart. How long you focus on the brand determines how much of your life they took control of. The more you allow their actions to flow through your mind over time the more power they have over your heart and life even if they are unaware. Up to and after their death we might allow them to rule over our lives and drive our actions and the changes we make because of how much focus we put on what they did to us. In order to get our own power back we have to stand up in our hearts and minds and let them know that we are done giving in to their will and we are not going to focus on the little speck of energy they are in our lives. We can be bigger, more powerful and free of them 99% of the time and when our focus is on living in the beauty of the world that surrounds us now, then we have taken back our existence. Flashes of memory will tap a...

 All the knowledge of the universe and creation are available to you, you can think and know anything. It is our goal to think, dream, read, learn and imagine as much as we can. Our brains have so much capacity, they are able to move in and with the layers of energy that have created this reality, and every imaginable possibility. As of yet, I have not figured out how to be tapped into everything at any given moment. However, I have found that at times the understanding of an action may flow into us as we need it, being open allows it to flow through each of us. Then as you are working, you reach a point where you realize you have done something beyond your knowledge, and a power that seems to be from beyond your brain has moved you in a lovingly creative direction. The pathway to being this open minded receiver of know how and thought has been hard for me to find. It is covered in voices, desire, drive and other pitfalls. When seeking in love, looking for a path that aligns w...

 Finding the path in your mind that will allow your consciousness to be aware of more than one possibility. Finding the power of your self within the mind you are tapped into on this earth in this space and time. How far back can you go, resetting a lifetime to experience other possibilities. Then looking forward from this moment and letting your imagination see and feel one, five, fifty or five thousand possible lifetime outcomes.  The options are endless if you can be aware of the fact that you are connected to a brain, drifting in outer space, living on a different planet, making different choices at age 8, 15, 19, 23 just to see what plays out. Finding that place in this brain where you can move through it all over a course of a night time's dreams, and eventually in a ten minute meditation.  Your brain has everything it needs to span the possibilities. Stretch and play with your imagination and dreams, be aware of all the options, your brain can imagine all, everythi...

 I can not stop the hate within me, it flows and moves as part of my essence. There are moments that bring forth such anger and rage in hates presence, and it is in these moments that I learn my level of self-control. In bringing my own emotions under control, I find myself leaning back into love, a love that shines over everything and it replaces the rage with joy and hope. Again, I must use self-control to restrain and share the amount of love that is right for the moment. Hate and Love have power over us, until we learn to control each.   Love,  PEACE

 I've dealt with my inner demons, the first time that I met them I chased them down, kicked them around, and I tried to show them who was boss. After a while I realized that the energy I was using to try and get rid of them was going to waste, and too big an effort to keep up. I started to wonder what would happen if maybe I started to listen to them, and considered letting them guide me. So I started looking at myself from different angles and I began to recognize that the so called demons had always just been there. I saw them in things like, that inner rage that I carried through my childhood, and my desire for power and control that took me so long to recognize. There were many aspects of my life that slowly revealed the truth of a scary side of me.  Seeing all of this and trying to figure out how to deal with it, I found that I could express my inner evil through writing. I have written some harsh stories; most of which are in my first journal, "Where Faith Can Grow"...

 There are many avenues into the layers of consciousness that open our minds to the greater potential of our being at ease in the world. Some have the door opened once and are able to walk through their life with that single experience guiding their heart and mind for an entire lifetime, without ever stepping over the line into mystical awarenesses again. Then there are others that find themselves able to swing the door open freely, finding the avenue to alternative thinking easy to access and walk in and out of the layers of awareness throughout their lives, being reminded regularly of the possibilities beyond the here and now. And still another group chooses to not open the door for themselves and it never fully opens on its own, they are content in the act of just being as they are. Life is as it is for those who choose this path and there is no need to dig beyond the inspiration recieved by the stories of the ones who have shared their understanding of the layers of existence. ...

 The depths of being that run just under our human awareness are almost overwhelming. I often find myself living in a brain that just wants to smile and laugh so everyone else can see that it is OK to find the same happy place within themselves. Then I look inside and find waves of energy flowing out of every person that I am connected to, and I flounder in concern. I have been given so much, and I try to share It, but I feel there is so much more I can do. I see myself growing in earthly understanding, but I still want to become a word spewing guru that inspires an entire world to look beyond it. I am impatient, though I know that I have all the time in existence, so I walk slow. If each of us could become aware of the underlying movement of energy that is between everyone, then we may find a different course of action in developing society and the rules of engagement. The empath knows the connection by just being, but so many of us need to find ways to open our eyes. Sometimes I ...

 Ignorance can be a fire in the darkness of hell. I truly knew bliss when I was a child living for the moment, happily breathing and eating as my parents supported me, my brother and sisters. Challenges came; potty training, reaching door handles, learning to ride a bike, finding out how to not shut my fingers in the door, which took a while, and finally a lifetime of growing my brains understanding. At one point I knew everything, OK, I thought I knew everything and that was when I didn't know how much I had to learn. I was a man sized child and I was in a bit of a hell that I created for myself through having great ignorance. I look back and I love that young man, I love him because he never really stopped digging, despite that knowing of everything, and because he grew into what I find in this mind today. But there was hell to pay for attempting ignorance by assuming to have all the answers, and I did face my inner darkness, and standing in front of it I grew to find that it was...

 There are so many reasons to hate this world. There are the little things that can be frustrating and leave us questioning reason; like the actions of other people when they seem to be making choices out of ignorance. If we disagree with a political official or the education system it can make us angry at everything. Sometimes it is witnessing racism, class descrimination or other social injustice that we feel powerless against. With natural disasters wiping out homes, towns and even cities, it seems like the world itself is against us. We can find violence, pain, murder, and a continuous stream of death pouring across the Earth; all of which can make this place seem so unwelcoming and we may grow to despise everything. But I wonder over my focus, and consider the possibility of finding reasons to hate this place a little less. Is it what we are staring at that drives our attitude?  It is not good to pretend that none of the negatives in the world exist, because as long as an...

Living things, dead things, living things. Sometimes, I feel a deep connection to the earth when I am cutting down a healthy tree. I try to use as much of the tree as I can for setting up a warm comfortable place that my family can connect in. Some of us eat as carnivores, vegetarians or any one of the many dietary types, and each is able to work with the environment in its  own way. Really it all comes down to being aware of what you are killing, why you are killing it, giving it as much respect as possible from its birth to its death. Treating anything that you are going to eat as if it is not worthy of a natural and life enriching environment depletes your power when you eat it because everything is tied into energy.  The energy that goes into the living thing that you are now about to eat goes into you. We all kill and we all eat life that has stopped living. You are a human on a planet, there are bugs and plants everywhere. Walk through a field and you can be pretty sure...

We do, and then we move on and we do, then we move on. Our memories can work for us or against us, if your younger self did not fail to be what you would have it be in your present mind, then your life lessons were easy, and you can go have a good time in a balanced life. If you look back and see actions that you would have done differently, then go back in your mind, tell the earlier you that you love it, imagine your actions playing out differently, and know that you have already learned from your choices, so you can let them go. If you ever hurt anyone or a group of people, then send them love either physically or mentally through visualization or something and know that it will create positive change. Life is not just a single layer reality, it is so much more, and as long as you are growing, then forgive yourself all your previous actions; I have forgiven you and I love you. Now you can live a balanced life and go have a good time too.  If you don't think that you are growi...

Time is short, we are moving and existing in the wonderland of our minds, each of which gives access to experience in this life and it's dreams. This brain in time is not the source of your power, it is not the source of your life, but it is the one thing that connects you to this world. Without the structure of the clumped atoms that are inside your head there is no earth, no solar system, galaxy or universe. There is no way for your conscious energy to play out being this person trying to find the truth of existence. If you don't think that your human is trying to reach the truth, then you had better guess again. You are closest to knowing that this is what you are here for when you feel unaccomplished, like you are not striving towards your true goal, or that you are wasting time circling the same life pattern over and over again. The downward spiral which so often brings us to our lowest point in life can be used as a tool to thrust oneself into the business of knowing wha...

As of late, I have been thinking about a friend whose brother committed suicide and how their last conversation left my friend with a sense of responsibility. It made me think of the human condition and how much energy it takes to actually choose to stop being a person, then following through with that choice. I had contemplated the act many times as a young man between the ages of 15 and 25, but to actually commit to the act was a different level that I could not reach. Despite the awful experiences many people face and the sadness they feel at times, it is still an extremely difficult move to follow through with taking that action.  The act of suicide is never a split second decision, it is something that has been worked up to and it is a final move against the opponent that sits within your own mind. It seemed that my friends brother had an inner enemy which was a memory of abuse and the frustrations that would follow him up to his decision to stop facing that enemy living in...

I have been seeing someone pop up in the media recently, and some of their ideas make me think of past human actions that may have had erroneous ideas at there base.  This person has been pointing their finger at people that are outside what I would call their direct group of friends, saying that these outsiders are the cause of much strife and turmoil in the world.  This individual wants to put walls up to guard against these outsiders and keep them from becoming a part of their group; psychologically speaking, this concept of putting up walls is often a coping mechanism within an individual.  There are usually deeper reasons for these walls to be built and it takes a lot of time to work through why a person put them up and how to overcome the underlying issues behind their creation.  But I am no therapist, so I will not attempt to delve into the mind of this person or why they would feel the need to put up walls.     There have been many walls built th...

I have been trying to figure out how to consciously move from this reality into a dream reality, and have found that letting go of the breathing human form is rather difficult.  Trying to consciously forget that you are the body breathing in the bed so that you can become the body moving in another world seems to be one of the greatest challenges of my mind.  Then I am reminded that part of the reason I may be having trouble stepping into another land in such a way is the state of consciousness called soul that is the connecting point between the two places.  And as many of you may have found, it is really hard for a human mind to be actively aware of its soul self.  It is like we have a blockade in place that keeps us from knowing anything on the other side of our brain.  My own brain has the goal of stepping through that blockade in a peaceful movement in acceptance of the connection that has always been there.   From that point we can see that w...
