When my girls were children they spent hours outside. Usually playing in the sandbox under the swing set, I built for them. I often think about those simple days gone by. This poem was a way to remember the good old days.
Watch as Martin Luther King Jr, stands and speaks peacefully to the masses. The speech, broadcast during a time of civil disobedience, a time of upheaval and inequality, not only by color but by creed and gender. Look into the crowd of people who stand and listen peacefully.
“Let freedom ring,” he says.
He is a man who had a message. He got his message across by peacefully addressing the crowd. In earlier times, police arrested him in his protesting efforts; however, it was when he gathered peacefully in our Nation’s Capitol to share his vision for our country that the people heard him!
He had a dream rooted in the American dream.
“One day this nation will rise and live out the true meaning of its dream ‘we hold these truths to be self-evident that all men are created equal.’”
He stood in front of the monument of President Lincoln that only days prior protester defiled for what it represents, I’m sure he chose that spot because of the message President Lincoln tried to communicate many years earlier, one of which he quoted.
He had a dream that the content of their character, not the color of their skin, would judge people. Today people protest and defile the monuments and statues that represent our history. A history that our forefathers suffered, so we could grow into the country we were so close to becoming.
What does that say about the character of those that spread such hate?
We are living in a time of great disrespect, not only for one another but our history. You can’t erase history by removing the evidence of what occurred. In removing and defiling and denying, we only prolong the inevitable.
Turn your back on what was, and it will be again.
Hate and dissension will rear its ugly head. It will fester and infect our society and cause the dis-ease of what we are trying to eradicate. People protest in the name of peace and equality, yet they project and infect the country with hate. Hate does not encourage dialog; it causes the human mind to shut down to reason; it breeds more hatred. If people think by removing our countries monuments, it will cause people to change their views; I believe they are nieve. Here is an example. I use it because it has been in our faces for weeks. If we remove Confederate monuments, does that change history? Does that negate the struggle? Does it remove the lesson learned? Removing the statue does not change the story.
Did the Romans remove the Colosseum because of what it represented, the inhumane treatment of both man and animal? No. They left it as a reminder of what went on. They left it so that generations to come could tell the story and remember what not to do or how to behave.
By removing the monuments in the South, does it remove the Confederate conflict? If so, it must also remove the struggle experienced by the slave? Do we so want to disrespect the suffering on both sides?
In this lesson, I think we are failing to remember something. Behind the monuments are men, women, children, families, and communities. Each one suffered in their way. Each one had an experience that was not conducive to love or kindness or fairness.
They continued to live. Our forefathers erected monuments to remember what happened and to facilitate healing. Just because a man fought for slavery, doesn’t mean he believed in it. Men fight for their state or country. When they go to war, they go because their government calls them. They go because they respect their state and want to be obedient.
It isn’t always a personal preference. By erecting monuments, they are offering respect for those that fought and died as human beings. They are mourning the loss of human life.
Remember… All lives matter. Take it down to a personal level. Every human being suffers and deserves to heal. We need to come together as a country as one people. The world is watching us. We, who once was a great example to the world, have become a joke. We no longer deserve the respect we once had. If we can’t play nice in the sand, how can we expect the rest of the world to do so?
I am Arjuna. I am he, who’s called to fight. To kill. To liberate.
The image that stares back at me is fighting with she who studies that body, that spirit, that soul. The soul that signed the contract that would teach her who she truly is.
My dark night of the soul pulls me into the depth of my inner self. It struggles with the lives I have lived in this one lifetime. My soul now calls me to see myself, not as the flesh and blood that walks the earth today. But to see my divine nature.
I am now called to the struggle between life and death. No, not suicide. I am called to awaken. It is time to see my soul self and be that which the creator created me to be.
Love.
I am Arjuna. I am he, who listens to the teacher.
When I study the image of the face looking back at me, I stare into the eyes that are the window to the soul.
I am called to fight, yet I love. How can I destroy that which I have become comfortable with, that which I have grown to know so intimately.
The struggles I’ve lived with and survived, are now part of me. I cling to them as a drowning person would cling to the life vest. It is all I know.
I am Arjuna. I am he, the brave warrior.
I am called to face my fears. To stare down that which challenges me. That which stirs within me, the ultimate fight or flight nature.
The longer I stand in front of the image, the greater the need to know the truth.
I am love, yet I am called by the inner stirring to fight. I now fight for the love that is buried deep within, waiting to be rescued.
I long to breathe the fresh air and feel the warmth of the sun shining on my face. I long to be released from the prison of which I place myself. It is time to be released from the dark night that has held me in a state of nothingness.
I am Arjuna. I am he who rejoices in the light.
Darkness recedes as the light fills my soul. Beckoning me to shine, a light so bright it lights up the world.
I am the expression of my soul. My true divine self has risen and continues to shine bringing forth a love so great it will never be contained.
There are evil things going on in the world that most people know nothing about. Human trafficking is happening and has been happening for centuries.
I’m sharing a video with you today about the world of human trafficking. The video I’m sharing is a documentary film that was started by Lisa Beane and Leroy Moore (Dave Matthews Band). Chris Cornell joined Leroy and Lisa as a financial backer to the project. Chester Bennington, Linkin Park producer joined as a collaborator.
To stress the severity of exposing human trafficking, I must tell you that the only person who worked on the documentary that is still alive is Lisa Beane.
Please pray for all those who continue to work to expose human trafficking. They take their lives in their hand every time they open their mouth.
Each of us, in our lives at some point, suffer the loss of a loved one. It’s never an easy path to walk.
It is said, the heart wants what the heart wants. The heart may want what it wants, but it doesn’t always get what it wants. Or, if it does, it can be fleeting.
Love is a deep feeling of the heart, not one that can easily be forgotten or released. Over time it may find a comfortable place deep within where it settles into a rhythm of what might have been.
Sometimes love isn’t lost; it just finds itself taking a detour. Giving the feeling a time to mature or grow or maybe find its way back to what should have been.
Other times it seems to come late in life when the noise of the world has settled, and distraction is set aside. Love comes when the time is right.
The heart may want what it wants, but love knows when it’s time for the heart to swell with the passion that brings two souls together.
Sometimes those souls connect for a moment in time, bringing joy, happiness, peace, contentment, and a deep love that is beyond the space of time.
Then it is gone. But is it?
No.
It is that love that stands the test of time. It stands the test of that which is outside of space and time. It is what we call eternity. Love beats deep in the heart right through the soul of eternity.
When you lose a lover in this life, you should know that in that place outside space and time, the heart still swells with the passion that keeps you and your soulmate together.
Tonight, I think about a dear friend who recently lost what I believe is what I describe above. I hope you will find comfort in the words that cannot begin to make up or replace the gentle, loving heartbeat of that missing space in this lifetime.
I hope you can find peace in your memories.
This morning I turned on my computer and stepped away for a moment while the programs loaded. When I returned good, old Windows 10 had once again given me an image to contemplate. Maybe it’s a sign.
I wasn’t sure what I would write about, but when I saw the image in front of me, it became clear. I saw before me nature unfolding dramatically. I saw in the distant a storm brewing. The clouds were accumulating; gathering as if preparing a scheme, planning its attack. As the clouds became darker and darker, the rumble began. The orchestra of sound was escalating and bringing to life the air that had become stagnant. The change became more than clear as the lightning struck the rocks below.
The clouds rolled in faster and faster, and the sky grew dark, and the rains fell. The pitter-patter of rain slowly became a pounding that drowned out the sounds of the birds as they scattered to find a haven from the storm. The lightning followed by the booming crash of thunder that resonated across the sky; the vibration absorbed by the earth below.
As I studied the image, a thought came to my mind. This scene that played out in front of me was so similar to the life we are experiencing today. As we sit back and study, the course of recent time we see the parallel between the storm in the sky and what we are living through right now. Stormy energy has been brewing for a long time. Humanity is about to unleash its wrath just as the lightning emitted in the sky. The booming anger of humanity is drowning out the beautiful sounds of nature. We can’t see the forest through the trees because we have become so focused on negative energy we can’t let our guard down and let in the light.
What a comparison. Think about it. As the clouds accumulate and absorb the negative energy; humankind is absorbing all the surrounding negativity. Negativity begets negativity. It grows like a plague unleashing itself on society and kills the kindness we have been ignoring. The storm in the sky unleashed on the earth, and we have natural catastrophes all over the globe. On a human level, we are doing the same thing. We have unleashed the negativity on each other, and there is very little peace.
I believe the calm before the storm is long gone now. We are amid a storm that is out of control. Maybe if we change our energy, it will affect the surrounding energy. We as humans have a responsibility to love and protect. We have forgotten that as we sling negativity at one another. Maybe it’s time the tides turn. If nature can do it, we can as well.
The War Within was supposed to be a a romance novel. I started writing the novel and found the more I wrote, the more research I needed to do, to make sure I was being accurate in my portrayal of time.
What started out as a romance, ended being what I consider historical fiction with a twist of suspense. That’s quite a leap. Why you say?
Well, the more research I did, the more I kept running into terms like MK Ultra and Operation Paperclip. When I looked at the riots that occurred, I began to wonder if the CIA had anything to do with behavior that prior to the sixties was unheard of. So I dug deeper.
Katherine was a new mother who’s husband died in Vietnam. Death is a life changing event, one that sent Katherine back to work at the local University . Where she stumbled upon the program that we know as MK-ULTRA.
The Church Commission supposedly investigated programs such as MK-Ultra and Operation Mockingbird. In the end the people were lied to and told such programs were no longer operational. I think we know different. Or do we?
The War Within is not only the struggle for mankind to survive the scourges of war, but it also looks at the inner struggle we all face when we realize the ravages of evil really do exist in the dark recesses of space and time.
I continue to research the topic of MKULTRA and other programs that I’ve been told are conspiracy theories. When you read The War Within you can decide.
I step into the arena of a new existence. The path in front of me is vast, with many twists and turns. It’s a road that leads to nowhere and everywhere. Adventure awaits. Walk with me as I step into the land of the living and dead. Journey with me to a time where truth, lies, love, hate, and suspense each touch the heart, mind, and soul. Let me tell you a story about…
When President Trump took office, he made a pledge to end human trafficking. I’m not sure if watching the below video has anything to do with his promise. I’m sure he knows more than I do about the degree of trafficking that occurs around the world.
There are many ways children are trafficked. We should all know about the trafficking that is taking place around the world today. And we should all find some way to inform others about the children being trafficked. And educate ourselves on how we can recognize signs of trafficking. We’ve been in the dark about this topic for too long.
The video below is only one way that children are being trafficked.
The United Nations peacekeepers have been receiving sex from children in exchange for food. What a terrible thing to do. A child has to chose between food and sexual abuse? This should never happen. Especially at the hands of people who claim to be protectors of the people.
This video is the beginning of your trail. Its the rabbit hole where you start to research this topic. It has ties to everything going on in the world today.
We are becoming a world aware. We are waking up to the corruption and evil that has held us all in a state of numbness for long enough.
We are ready to take back our humanity. Let’s go.

Many of us now know that THE UNITED STATES is a foreign corporation. Or should I say a bankrupt foreign corporation. In any case this can be a complicated conversation. Below is a bullet list to help us understand the madness. I’ll leave this one here. As I learn more I hope I can be of more help with this conversation.
UNITED STATES is a foreign corporation to the states of the union.
19 C.J.S. Corporations § 953 Definition of foreign corporation
A foreign corporation is one that derives its existence solely from the laws of another state, government, or country and the term is used indiscriminately, sometimes in statutes, to designate either a corporation created by or under the laws of another state or a corporation created by or under the laws of a foreign country. 1
A corporation incorporated in a United States possession is foreign, not domestic. 2
At common law, a corporation may be deemed a person, 3
and statutes providing that corporations are deemed persons include foreign corporations within the definition of person. 4
Generally, the status of a corporation as either foreign or domestic is determined solely by the place of its origin, without reference to the residence of its stockholders, 5
or incorporators, 6
or the place where its business is transacted. 7
However, by express enactment, a corporation, a majority of whose stock is held by aliens, is, for some purposes, deemed to be a foreign corporation. 8
On the other hand, a domestic corporation does not become a foreign corporation merely by accepting from another state a grant of the right to own property and to transact business in such other state. 9
Federal corporations. While there is authority that a federal corporation operating within a state is considered a domestic corporation rather than a foreign corporation, 10
the creation and organization of a corporation by an Act of Congress does not preclude such corporation from being a “foreign corporation” as recognized by a state venue statute, which expressly includes “a corporation created by or under the law of any other government.” 11
The United States government is a foreign corporation with respect to a state. 12
(B) an agency, department, commission, board, or other entity of the United States; or
(C) an instrumentality of the United States.
The United States is a District of Columbia corporation.
In Volume 20: Corpus Juris Sec. § 1785 we find “The United States government is a foreign corporation with respect to a State” (see: NY re: Merriam 36 N.E. 505 1441 S. 0.1973, 14 L. Ed. 287 Since a corporation is a fictitious “person” (it cannot speak, see, touch, smell, etc.), it cannot, by itself, function in the real world. It needs a conduit, a transmitting utility, a liaison of some sort, to “connect” the fictional person, and fictional world in which it exists, to the real world.

FIRSTNAME (space) MIDDLEINITIAL. (space) LAST
JOHN M. DOE signature is the transmitting utility. this is an example.
As we move forward in time we will continue to learn more about all that has been hidden from us. All will come to light.
We must remember, it’s up to us to shine that light in the darkness, so that the many will see the truth and the few will no longer control that truth.
Each of us, in our lives at some point, suffer the loss of a loved one. It’s never an easy path to walk.
