Living Water (I Choose Love)


My cats understand that water is living. It is cute how they literally have a close relationship with it. They play with it, they chase it & try to catch it as it drips from the faucet - water is their friend and they look forward to seeing it each and every day. Water sustains them and comforts them and of course they are aware of that fact as they drink it on and off throughout their day, but to them it is more than sustenance it is their brother whom they love to an almost indescribable depth.

When I watch my cats playing with water and smile at their curiosity at its every move, it brings to mind the fact that the water is truly living. It is not just a figment of my cat’s imagination, a Jedi mind trick if you will, but it is truly living. Science has shown us that and for years people have denied it, but it is true I have no doubt. So for me my cat’s love of water is a lesson and I am taken back through my life to all the Christian scripture I have ever been taught regarding references which include water and lessons of spirituality as well as all of the science I have ever been taught which reference water and how it affects all of humanity.

Science shows us through the studies of Jagdish Chandra Bose where his studies of plants proved that they were an antennae for what we think, do and feel to the point where they act as the canary in the mine with a scientifically proven wireless telegraphy that has existed and was discovered much earlier than that which was patented by Marconi. The same thing can be shown through the studies of water done by Dr. Masaru Emoto which show the beautiful (and sometimes not so beautiful) frozen images of water after they have received negative and positive verbalization & whose studies have shown the proof of what the effects of blessing the food and liquids which we put in our bodies. This water phenomenon can also be found in experiments from the HeartMath Institute and many others & in my opinion there is no doubt to the power of water to hold the energy of all that are near it.

The fact that has been proven again and again in different experiments throughout the years and over time of how water acts as a conduit for our negative emotions & as a barometer that shows the state of the global emotional atmosphere caused by a mix of all the positive and negative emotions we as humans are holding within us and are unwilling to release. This scientific fact in itself should be enough to tell us how the way we act, think and feel toward others effects the entire globe, and how we act, think and feel toward ourselves affects our individual attitudes and health, but just like the Samaritan woman at the well who could not understand what Jesus meant when he told her that he WAS the Living Water (John 4), we also question this within ourselves and with that question, we program the water to remain still, stagnant and stale within us.

However, if we can pause for a moment and take time to open our minds to consider the truth of what is being said then like the woman at the well who sat listening to Jesus as they spoke we too can be changed by the living water which, if we allow it, can be troubled by the love of God and heal us all (John 5). Regardless of what belief you come from I think we all can come to the point of agreeing that God is Love, that the energy of God is Love and that even those who don’t believe in God or that Jesus was the son of God believe that what Jesus is said to have represented is pure Love and compassion for all of those in need. If we can put our own mindset into this place of Love & compassion then we all together can trouble the waters of all humanity with the Love of God just as the angel troubled the still waters of Bethesda. (John 5)

Imagine the healing that such a quake would bring!! Imagine if all of the waters across the entire globe were troubled just as the angel troubled the waters of Bethesda. Imagine the healing which would occur as the 80% water upon this earth we live in were cleansed and healed of all the negative emotion it has been carrying for us over the thousands of years upon this planet, imagine further the 80% water in plants being healed of the negative burdens just from us changing our own individual points of view to one of Love and compassion, imagine further the 80% water in animals being healed with that same power of love and compassion, and finally imagine what the healing would be like if we just took the time to heal ourselves.

If we troubled our hearts with the Love and compassion displayed by Jesus throughout his life by loving all, giving to all, spending time treating all with respect and honor whether they be a Jew, a Samaritan, a gentile, a prophet, a disciple, or the scourge of the earth then imagine the change that would occur upon this planet. It is time for us to "be the change we wish to see in the world" and trouble the waters of our own heart, body, mind and soul and create a world of Love and abundance. It is time we recognize there is no place for a mentality of fear and scarcity that is rampant among certain individuals and groups across our globe. It is time we recognize that in fact we are all one in the body & not one as Christians or Jews or Muslims or Pagans but really truly all one. Just as it is stated “the whole earth was of one language, and of one speech….” (Gen 11). Just as we did then by separating ourselves from the oneness and focusing on a pursuit of something such as our egos, which really have no place in a world of true Love and compassion, we still do by continuing the age old pursuit of pride over all else.

As it is often said “pride comes before the fall” and this is taught throughout the Christian scriptures from Genesis 11 and the story of the tower of Babel to Ecclesiastes and the lessons taught to us by ‘The Teacher’. So when you are considering your position politically consider whether or not you are operating out of a place of ego where you KNOW your point of view is right and it makes you feel justified in removing the freedoms of others to choose their own paths. When you are considering your position religiously consider whether or not you are operating from a place of ego KNOWING you are right and someone else is wrong and therefore you feel justified to admonish them, insult them, take their freedoms etc. When you are considering your position regarding the environment and our abuses of it consider whether or not your ego & pursuit of that which you KNOW you deserve is causing you to feel justified in pillaging that which we are supposed to be a steward of. Consider what we do for our egos and the pursuits justified by ego instead of justified by the Love of the Living Water. If you are not operating from that place of Love and compassion taught us by the various scriptures then how can you really say that you are operating from a place of God and the greater good as ‘The Teacher’ tells us in Ecclesiastes? Without Love and compassion running through the living waters of your veins how can you even receive the message of what is right and what is wrong? Without that how can you receive the knowing and understanding of what is truly best for humanity? Ask yourself if you cannot bring yourself to live your life displaying true Love and Compassion for others then how can you truly understand those who you effect around the globe and without that understanding how can you truly say you are operating from a place of that which is for God and the greater good? Just as Jesus lived his life from a place of Love and compassion for all and left the rest up to God it is my opinion that we too should do the same. Jesus is the Christian example of how to be human upon this earth and as Christians I believe it is a duty to follow his example without letting our egos assume that it is our jobs to act out the anger, wrath or destruction which God can be capable of delivering as taught in the Christian scriptures. According to the Christian Bible, God is the omniscient one NOT humans and therefore it is not up to us as humans to govern one another’s paths and freedoms or to make war for no reason other than a belief that it is inevitable or a belief that we mere humans can affect the prophecy to come more quickly by our mimic of what we interpret in Revelations, as much as it is the Christian's job to follow the example of God’s own son who despite knowing that there will always be both good and bad in the world made it a point to live His life in the good knowing that His Father would take care of the rest without His help. I don’t think you can do anything good without Love, compassion and a true understanding of the oneness which we all are a part of from before the split into one religion or geographical location occurred up until current times & with that I can say I don’t know about you but I know that for me….
I CHOOSE LOVE.

Weirdos Under God

OK. I know you've all heard of the Rev. Phelps. He is the reverend who for years has taken the members of his church to protest at the funerals of gay people and soldiers. His church members are currenty made up of different generations of his family members. The reason they protest all of these funerals and not others is because they feel like God hates homosexuals and that God hates America because it embraces homosexuals. Thanks to You Tube we can all watch videos of these wackos at work.



They usually use Leviticus 18:22 as their basis for the belief that God hates gays. That verse says something like 'Thou shalt not lie with a man as one does with a woman. That is detestible.' I think that homosexuals generally do follow that verse as they definitely don't lie with a man in the same way as they do with a woman. The odd thing is that the verse is from the old testament which was basically made not applicable to present day Christians after Jesus dying on the cross for everyone's sins among other things Jesus told us. I would be willing to bet you that these people and others like them commit the breaking of many of the laws in the bible. I know multiple Christians for instance who eat pork and others who do not hesitate to sleep in the same house and even the same bed as their husbands while on their periods. Women who cut their hair and leave it uncovered, people with tatoos, showing skin where it isn't appropriate. The list goes on but basically my point is that if you choose to follow one of the old testament laws you must follow all of them in order for anyone to take you seriously. These kooks are just that kooks. I really wish that we could predict the when the death of any one of these people would die so that we could go to their funerals and have a party or protest it with signs about how God hates people who break whatever rule in Leviticus that we choose. I would take time off work to go to that party and then organize protests or parties outside the house where these people live.

Merry Christmas From The You Tube Community

This is kinda funny, kinda goofy but you still can't stop until the end. And even if you don't celebrate Christmas you'll find yourself bobbing your head trying to help the choir get all the lyrics out.

Religion For A Captive Audience, Paid For By Taxes

Ok this is the reason that I think everyone who is not 100% represented by the taxes they pay should go out and seek reimbursement for that which we don't have access to. If you aren't a Christian but your taxes paid for something which involves Christianity then go out and find yourself a church that will give you something. Go to a church that takes part in the Angel Food Network for instance. You can go to that church and sign up to pay a small fee somewhere around $25 and then you get huge amounts of free food. Fill your refridgerator and freezer once a month with free food paid for by those who receive your money in the first place. Take your money back. Wouldn't you do that if you made an investment and it wasn't as successful as you had hoped? You would stop investing in that thing if it was a failure so you should do the same for your tax money which has failed you. Seek out all that you can and take it back for yourself. If you pay taxes for things which support heterosexuals but you aren't a heterosexuals then take it back by going to find some place supported by government money and taking advantage of whatever the place offers whether you need it or not. Frankly, I'm sick of paying for spousal benefits for police officer, Firemen and Military people who are married when I don't get any of those benefits for my own spouse. I fought for my country but I don't get the same money as others do for their duties. Don't let pride stand in the way of you getting free food or any other free stuff. Why? Because it's not free stuff it is yours that you have already paid for. If you don't need it then donate the food and stuff to some organization that will help people like you. Chris Kids for instance is just one organizations which helps gay and other youth who risk being homeless because of their families abandoning them. Youth Pride also helps gay youth. Donate whatever you get back to an organization which supports your religion. Are you Pagan or Wiccan then give money to Spiral Scouts so that other little Pagans and Wiccans can grow up with the same money that the government gives to Christianity. Take back that which is yours. I don't need free food either I have plenty of money with which to buy my own at the regular price but if I paid for it I'm taking it and not leaving it in the store and just walking out. I'm going to the Angel Food Network and getting my food. I don't eat beef and all sorts of other foods. Who cares? If the Angel Food Network gives those things to me what is to stop me from cooking up a big beef steak for the homeless guy down the street who happens to be just like me minus the shelter and clothes. Anyway you get my point now hurry up and go take it back. Add one word to the "Pay it Forward" Movement so that it becomes "Pay It Forward Equally".

Bill O'Reilly Responds To The Video I Posted Earlier With An 8 Year Old Ranting

Bill O'Reilly is retaliating to the video posted on You Tube with an 8 year old girl ranting about him being an idiot and disagreeing with his views. The girl obviously memorized a script given to her by someone older and was permitted to curse throughout the video. Of course Bill is responding with pseudo concern for the child because he says the child is being abused since she was forced to do a video in which she can't possible comprehend all that she is saying. What a whiner for retaliating and giving this video power and what a punk for acting like he cares about the child when he really wants to get the parents in trouble. He is no different than them using the child for his own gain and turning their own video weaponry against them. He says they're nuts and I say he is too.

Interesting Video - Lots Of Good Points

Here is a video I found on You Tube when I was skimming around on the internet. It's a little 8 year old girl responding to the day she saw O'Reilly on the Oprah show. The girl cusses in the clip and says stuff about religion so if you're easily offended then quit your bitchin' and get off the internet. It's actually sort of funny because I have a friend who I could imagine being like this when she was an 8 year old. The video has a lot of good points but it's a little weird coming from an 8 year old. She would likely be a good little actress and she should go on an audition because she does good at remembering her whole little speach and emphasizing emotion throughout the thing.

Six Muslim Imams Removed from U.S. Airliner

Six Muslim imams removed from U.S. airliner Six Muslim imams were removed from a US Airways flight at Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport on Monday and questioned by police for several hours before being released, a leader of the group said.

I got an email from TBLJ about this and decided to comment on it. Once again someone has been removed from a plan for praying. First it's the Jews and then it's the Muslims. All because either people can't handle religion or people can't handle non-christian religion. Depending on which way you look at it you could argue that this is what happens when we remove prayer from schools or you could argue that this is what happens when ignorant people who have only been exposed to Christian style prayer are allowed to work for the airline industry or to fly. I say the only way to find out which is true is to get a bunch of open minded Christians to pray visibly on a plane and then get someone to complain of it who is on the same plane. If they remove the Christian from the plane then maybe it's a matter of this is what happens when you remove prayer from schools but I would venture to guess that the Christian would be permitted to stay on the plane which would fit with the second theory of Ignorant Christians Gone Wild.

Any volunteers out there willing to test the theory?
