i think i saw that movie, or something on PBS or The History Channel as i was reading this thread, i was remembering it's been years though it's probably time that all people lay down their "guns" and "flags" when it comes to their "faith" too much warring in the name of ..... MY GOD: has no name has never started or been involved in any war has never instructed me to hurt someone is fluid, ever-changing and full of life is spirit and truth is loving and guiding cannot be offended cannot be defended cannot be contained in a book Even my attempt to express it with words fails....but that's the best i've got I think the men in the freezing feilds that night understood

i've always connected with idea of spirit being in trees and animals and well everything that has life...plants etc. spirit is life the names and jargon only serve to divide us as fellow human beings....and that has obviously happened here i'm dealing with similar issues in my life and probably acted like your brother in a state of confusion and questioning it still stands that naming our gods and spirits does nothing but divide....they wait on us to figure this out

...positively odd = +odd i gotcha ....cool roy, i've understood a lot of what you say, but your greetings and salutations freak me out in my world, god is not a man figure, breath is not a woman figure, and if jesus is my brother i wish he'd show up and help me chop wood and carry water no offense intended, i just think we've spent a lot of time being tricked and/or tricking ourselves into "personifying spirit" <<<<<< oxymoron ....ya think? if you are for real, roy, i'm working towards "truthiness" with ya...if you're not for real...ya know, like TWI and all the other heavenly name droppers, you can f'off it is kinda weird...like i said , i've understood the body of your posts...you CAN talk to me with no fluff

i've gotten back home....for a brief powerful moment it was being tucked in by mom and dad...i'd guess i was about 4 maybe 5 years old i was a "special" kid.....but the lies to protect wound up as a deeper wound similar truth in my marriage/relationships....don't lie to me or keep secrets and we cool and here i am again, willing to spend energy that i might not have, in order to see a smile and feel a heart guess it's my turn to tuck someone in and not expect someone to tuck me in nightly......:( i'm starting to wish the power of jesus (or any other qualified savior/god/goddess) would posess me and bring those things i've longed for but have failed at predictably i do love life and people, but i have no idea how to get myself and everyone else there music is a decent start...it's my native language, i'm sure of that, it's all i've got that is truely of GOD

that's almost prophetic to me cool thread....good peeps here dreams have always intrigued me, i get some of those "wth was that?" and go searching my psyche for the stargazers: sunday morning in the East South East sky there will be a cluster/alignment of planets http://www.cnn.com/2006/TECH/space/12/08/t...s.ap/index.html my favorite quote from the link: ""When I look at something like this, I realize that all the powers on Earth, all the emperors, all the money, cannot change it one iota. We are observers, but the wonderful part of that is that we are the only species on this planet that can observe it and understand it." that understanding engenders a litlle more faith in me than i had prior to reading it What I understood GoldCurlyLocks saying was: you may have been reviewing your past years and feeling you didn't turn when you should've but gave it your best ....so be at peace with yourself....like the planets, we have no control over some things....sht just happens maybe the nickel was like the two mites Todd, i love who you are and the wisdom of your words, i envy your apparent control and thoughtfulness as well as others' on this thread...i'm working on it, you are all an inspiration p.s. i was not able to purchase the "Blush" print or the others this year, tough year, it's got it's own chapter in the history of my life. Are they still available in the coming year? if i recall, the following song streams right into "boy, you're gonna carry that weight" .....still fits in the dream, i think.....still prophetic for me the beatles were tight and right....i LOVE Paul McCartney...i ache for Paul, he loved Linda...."you're gonna lose that girl" .....all that money and he can't move a planet or do some other things Golden Slumbers Once there was a way to get back homeward Once there was a way to get back home Sleep pretty darling do not cry And I will sing a lullaby Golden slumbers fill your eyes Smiles awake you when you rise Sleep pretty darling do not cry And I will sing a lullaby Once there was a way to get back homeward Once there was a way to get back home Sleep pretty darling do not cry And I will sing a lullaby -------------------------------------------------------------- and now I must get back to sleep......nickel in hand love yous.....hoping telepathy becomes the method of communication, cuz words fail me damn ants got it goin on! edit: it's about 4:20 and i can hear the hunters shooting at "my" deer...if they get back home they'll be safe...i don't have a gun and i don't want to hurt noone...i've actually bought them bags of apples....i talk (imitate the noise they make) to them, i don't understand it...might be a mating thing, i should be careful,.... they come around when i play guitar outside at dusk....now you know i'm crazy

sorry....... music, good times, creativity, excitement, lovin life edited to put space between "lovin life" and

some people would be sorely upset with me if you stole the idea...maybe we could get you to play some on the song....i do thank you for the CB idea....that had not come up, but it's good....i do have some creative control and one of the other musicians is all about sampling voices...so, it might work "breaker, breaker......got your ears on?" kill a muslim for Jesus...or pray for another tsunami...gets confusing....yeah, "I Heard That!"

Dave, i've been sitting here all night with a guitar in my lap....reading this stuff....eating ...drinking...and working on a song i was "commissioned" to write called "I Heard That"...it could be a USA lovin, truck drivin, Nascar watchin, towelhead hatin, smashed my car, hit my girl, drank too much Bud, thank you jesus ...radio hit! That's what the marketers are going for...personally, it makes me feel a little dirty, but, there's so much truth to exposing the lie...i think it should be heard.."I heard that!" you get the idea....you'd have to slow down that pickin a bit to get the feel right...don't ya know btw, all you beautiful peeps....i'm takin credit for my life....you should too

you're going to AA too!?.....schidt! ... "all my rowdy friends have settled down"

my point? The Point...if you haven't ever seen it, rent it TOMORROW! you can call me Obleo....me and my arrow everything has a point ...even the pointless forest...even pointless drinking...that's what cman is realizing...it has a point

lol....you must be an "Anonymous" User cuz you keep posting but your name's not down there 6 User(s) are reading this topic (0 Guests and 2 Anonymous Users) 4 Members: frickafrack, outofdafog, BikerBabe, ChasUFarley Time for my after dinner cordial ....c ya btw, "on the subject of drugs" ...i ran across some blonde hashish that i haven't seen the likes of in nearly thirty years ...pricey compared to back then...but....skip the 'scrip pip

i have and do fully support your efforts to get help ....good talkin with ya...again?

those were some good posts, cman "..... better attitude and a change in my life....." it's not the bottle...it's the mind you are either celebrating or drowning in drama or casually toasting the newlyweds with expensive champagne or jesus' miracle wine look around at the next aa meeting it's not a good representation of the people of the world that enjoy alcoholic drinks in other words....if you are downing cheap CANS of beer that make your increasingly more frequent trips down to the bathroom more adventurous ...then....wrong attitude....buy expensive, quality beer in a bottle that has been brewed for centuries and savor it.....and thank God someone had the love/passion if you drink 6 dollar liquor in a plastic bottle till you're ready to get behind the wheel and screech the tires....um....wrong attitude i recently saw a 1600 dollar bottle of whiskey or something wood aged....the people that buy it are obviously not "about to lose their job and family"....maybe, who knows...i've some seen crazy stuff like you said its about "attitude" from my own experience, the smaller number of people that "drink" really have any problem many people don't drink just because they don't care to many more people drink because they like to very few don't drink but want to....or sneak it.....or lie about it....your local aa chapter maybe? my advice? if you want to quit drinking and CAN"T...go to aa...it could help...it's someplace they won't let you drink right there! but enjoying alcohol and living a good, happy/enjoyable life seems to be an option...at least for me and many others on this planet you have to find in you what causes excessive, destructive drinking and eliminate THAT! nuthin but love for you, cman you came in kinda strong with the alcohol repentance above all things, be true to thyself I hope the drinkers AND the non-drinkers on this forum appreciate what i'm saying the larger part of my life is spent trying help others and i usually get burned/hurt/lied to and/or about...that's not gonna stop me...i lean toward celebrating life and smiling CHEERS...NO TEARS! quote: Tom Maze edit: cman, where did this come from in you? or what does it mean? not responding to your post!? What? you've gotten an unusual amount of attention since you "joined", cman "...lol...sorry-sounded like a stalker or something-i'm not" What!? cman, there have been stalkers here...and maybe are currently and it shouldn't be taken lightly ...... I'n my area there is 24 hour AA meetings with a published list of locations...hope there is in your area....get off the internet and put down that beer and go to aa ....j/k....finish the beer first it's all about the attitude ...i agree with you

that's the funniest schidt i've read in a while i won't ask...i'd rather not know...thank you english is not my native language...but i try, i try.... and Jonny, the day you need the respect of this sort of man is the day YOU need another "make myself feel good put others down sub cult-ure groupie kinda thing gathering with unique language and special books that meets at least once a week" ;) ;) been there ....done that D. all of the above

with all due respect....i can't imagine a Geer follower helping pinklady confront Geer!!!?? but who knows?...it's a crazy place pinklady, i think that you have arrived at the place where you are ready to confront and it is the place you need to be, good for you....you don't really think he would listen or benefit from it ...do you? Then go and be at peace with yourself! :)

yeah....that's close to what i was saying it's not the alcohol...i'm with you pond, no great achievement in not drinking and being the asse that you are anyway....mel gibson blaming the tequila....effin jews.....passion of the christ...mark foley blaming the drink and a priest.....ted haggard.....jeezus........it's mind boggling if you try too hard to figure it all out.

careful wit dat cuz i smell a rat or a cat or a man or a do? d u? i dunno...i've been wrong before back to topic: i had a smoke and a few drinks with some buddies/coworkers after a good days work and talked about spiritual things and nature and trees around a fire and laughed and had a good time!? lovin life and thanking God!!?? the problem seems to be in peoples minds.....NOT the bottle....the bottle is inanimate until someone animates it Jesus did turn some nasty water into the best wine of the night for the newly wedded couple......didn't he?

my very first Way meeting was an opening night of the class.....Donna (interim corps) kissed me as I walked in the door....Dennis was also very kind (apprentice corps)....i believe they were genuine and neither made it to the higher ranks, as a matter of fact, they were not to be seen in later years. I think a lot of good people with good intentions got fooled into promoting a very strong corporate push. I never felt kindness from any "recognized" leadership....it was more like strongarm coaching tactics....which can also be a "hook" to some of us mortal humans. Donna and Dennis were good souls...i believe

i remember vee peepee saying to the ladies "practice by keeping a quarter between your knees" in Philly in '79 at a "those going WOW" after meeting (prolly some weird fantasy of his).........i was a naive virgin at the time.....i did get some kisses from my wow sisters that were wetter and slower and longer than what i would regard as a "holy kiss"........and come to find out all my wow brothers and sisters were "doing it" with each other.....the topic of our most heated "family meetings"...WOW! i wound up losing my virginity to a girl that seduced me after i got her in the class.....22 years and 3 kids...holy sht

you're right....just realized that fact...incredible! and regarding the hallowed 7 epistles....i reread recently and noticed that most end with Paul talking about the money....read the endings again in that light....seems like a blueprint for future "ministers". the whole book seems to have a pro male "selective teaching" slant that i can't agree with. a very controlling "God" and a rather wimpy, weird (flowerchild kinda way) but still angry enough, son. i wish i were taught about a Mother God that REALLY gave birth to a hotty saviour daughter, but i digress!

ty for the info for our troops..they have wayed heavey on my soul..

i'm from NC..there are alot of Pharm/Med..have you tried winston-salem juornal/classifieds
