Our memories throughout the journey we walk, plus learning the history of others before us that also walked this journey before us, this is how we grow to move forward better and stronger with each step throughout this journey of life. It is pretty cool knowing those who walked before us and what they did, to make their journey better for themselves. When we look into our history and look deeply into the other societies before us, we can learn of what works, versus what does not work, but when we try to erase History or even worse do not teach history within our schools, now you can very easily repeat history and take huge steps backward instead of moving forward.

These Native Tribes back in Ancient times in the area of Mount Kineo did not have any technology like we of today, they had no telephones but yet they communicated far better than we do today. These people didn’t procrastinate and whatever they found they turned it into something useful to make their lives better. They learned how to hunt so they can eat, they learned how to barter as there were no monies back then, they were survivors and learned how to survive and were not lazy at anything they did. Now unlike those of us within this society with all the technology and gadgets we have, we have become lazy and expect things to come to us, instead of actually getting out and working hard, so we then can move forward better and stronger. We in this society have become disconnected from each other even with all the connections we have, we hide behind all our devices and have no clue as to what true social interaction is? We think that FaceBook is our modern-day interaction, I have a news flash people, time to step out of our comfort zone before there is no more comfort to enjoy.

There are so much ugliness and chaos among us today, so much that it has become hard to see any light at the end of this darkness. Those who are creating this chaos and unrest, quite simply have lost sight of what is around them, plus none of them are looking through their actions before they actually take the action. I am willing to bet that most of these individuals who are creating this ugliness have zero clues of what they are doing? They are simply a follower and will never be a trailblazer as they walk the path they are on, through this journey of life.

The unfortunate part through all this ugliness and chaos is, we of this society are becoming Victims from it, not only are we becoming trapped in our homes from a virus, but we are also becoming trapped within our homes, for the fear of becoming a true Victim from the ones creating all the ugliness and chaos. Very true that the ones with boots on the ground delivering all this ugliness are merely a puppet for an even bigger puppeteer, so with that said…….. maybe it is time we find the puppeteer so we all can escape this ugliness and get back to the true beauty within this journey of life, find the one holding the puppet strings so we then can cut these strings, showing that they can not hurt us anymore and we are done being a Victim of their ugliness. In this society, it is all about three things, the power, the greed, and the control, these three things will have you lose all sight of reality, not to mention the fact that you become a victim of denial and with denial, you then become someone for who you truly are not. Very true there is a silent majority that says not all that much but is much smarter because they let there true actions speak even louder than even themselves, so when the time is right, the silent majority will let their true actions speak and all the ugliness and chaos will leave us, bringing back the true peace, the true love and the beauty that is around us, as we then move forward along our paths of this journey through life.

 

” Open the history books again cause what you may learn will help you move forward better”

 

” Memories become the history and when we do not glance back to fix the error of our ways, then the future becomes in jeopardy”

 

” Ugliness and chaos are ingredients of evil, as love and faith will bring us good full of peace”

 

 

Not Government but self Govern

Government whether State, local or Federal and with the way they can’t even come together on anything, is simply a bad example on how to unite for the rest of us and we are supposed to look up to them? Maybe if we learn how to self govern and not depend so much on any government, cause it is quite obvious that these so-called leaders care nothing for us, as they are all about themselves and their agendas. I have worked in the foodservice business for 39 years before I changed careers, I have worked with many different kinds of people, like religion, ethnicity, color, and nationality, since 1998 I have been saying we are in an ” all about me society”. What I mean is we were losing our empathy and love of one another as we only cared for ourselves, now this change was coming a lot earlier than this, but it was becoming really noticeable then. Then you add in the fact that there were broken homes at every turn along this journey, homes where there is only one parent where the child needs both parents to truly learn and grow moving forward, these parents split because they grow apart, but there was once a time that two parents took their marriage vows seriously, like death do us part, within this society, it’s more like til we grow tired of each other. The parents of today only think of themselves and it is the child who ultimately pays the price, it is the child who grows up into a society feeling incomplete because they were not taught the right tools or brought up in a healthy environment. True you can have one parent who shows love for their child, but the child needs it from both parents and both parents who stay together through thick and thin, there are so many lessons lost with only one parent, that the child then becomes incomplete as they grow into a society of many.

These children then grow and attend schools with other children, some get Bullied, some become the Bully, some learn to walk alone as others will do anything to just fit in, as these children get older they then think that they know everything and stop listening to others around them, so they then shut down and pull back from others around them, leaving them all alone and hiding within themselves. Now especially within a one-parent household, I get that the parent may work two or even three jobs to make ends meet, but that is no excuse to ignore the biggest responsibility of, caring for that child that you have created. Sure there may be a strong single parent, but for a child to grow properly and healthy, they need both parents as each one brings different elements to the teachings. A child is like a sponge as they grow, and whatever kind of environment they are in as they grow will become the environment they move forward into. If the child then alienates themselves from others, they then bury their true feelings of love and empathy deep within as now their hearts become cold, because, with no contact with others they do not know how to truly feel, we all have our issues as we walk our paths through this journey of life, but in order to self govern ourselves, we need contact with others, to make that governing complete.

There were many life events that have and will come to us as we walk this journey, but if we never get taught properly as we grow, we will never be ready for any of these events, we then will form our own ideologies, we will tell ourselves over and over these ideologies are the way of life and then right or wrong then live as if they are real, for many years now, children have not been taught properly of right and wrong, so within this society of today it truly is showing, just that now we as a society are living among all the ugliness and hatred from it all. Throughout history and throughout all our lives from the beginning of Mankind, each society has had their issues, just that now within this society and through all the technology we have, these issues have become so overwhelming, that we do not know where to start fixing all the issues before it becomes too late. I have a good idea, how about self-governing, instead of relying on any other government that wants nothing more than to control each one of us at every step of our paths.

There are many parts of this journey that have brought us many issues, some of these issues has brought much pain to us all, but as we try to move forward from the pain we also bury deep within a big part of who we are, Sometimes it is okay to glance back into the past to see the error of our ways, so we can fix what we need to fix, but when we get stuck in the past and never let it go, then our issues of today become even worse, which we then bury further who we are and become someone for who we truly are not, so we can try to move forward with no pain from the issues. With the pain and being of not who we truly are, we then will do things we normally would not, we let ourselves become brainwashed to whom or whatever makes us feel comfortable, which we then let the whom or what control us, as now we think everything is all okay? Now this explains perfectly what is going on today, with all the ugliness, hate, control, and greed that is all around us. We are all stuck within the past, instead of just glancing back, so we can fix what we did wrong in the past and move forward today better and stronger, as we walk our paths through this journey of life.

 

” There is a difference between a Government and self govern, we just have to listen and be taught correctly what the difference truly is”

 

” A society scorned leaves the people within that society hurting with real pain and becoming someone for truly who they are not”

 

” A child is like a sponge as they grow up and whatever environment they are in will become their life as they are older”

 

 

 

The Black clouds over this society

These black clouds are coming from a whole slew of issues over time, they come from we the people and the fact that instead of sharing our love within, with each other, we have become lost within the clouds of our judgments. The hate out there is learned from somewhere, from someone? This hate when we let it will control every fiber of our being, it will turn us into someone for who we truly are not, with all that is going on in this society, you can clearly see that we the people within this journey through life, are in the dire need to heal from all this hatred, so we can move forward in peace, with no ugliness getting in our way.

The year 2020 has become a year that we all so want to put an end to and fast, started with a virus that ultimately lockdown many worldwide, has all the so-called leaders getting deep within the power…… the control and the greed of us all, proving that these same leaders care nothing for who they lead and everything for their own agendas, a true leader will lead the herd to prosperity,  a true leader will never put himself above anybody and will always lead by example, to which they will never ask of others something that they wouldn’t do themselves. Through all this virus chit chat and the ones who are looked at as the experts, are they really an expert? Maybe they simply are someone that is trying to fill their pockets, or maybe they enjoy gaining power over others? It really does not matter to which, as they both will turn us into somebody we truly are not, not too mention the fact that, now trust and respect then enter the picture, without these two components, will then have us rationalize away whatever actions we take and when there is zero accountability, the issues then compound one after the other and on top of each other, until the weight of these issues then become a factor as well, as we become someone for who we truly are not.

Then there are the media,  let’s be real here, the ” fake news media”, who hide behind an amendment that they think will protect them as they then ram their agenda down our throats. They also will try to gain control over us with their drama, their twisting of the spoken word to fit their agenda, they too are deep within the power of denial like the entire Democratic party, they think we the people do not see what they are doing, but I have a news flash for all you media types, we do see you, but we the people have been the silent way too long, the time we hold all of them accountable and end all this ugliness, hatred and control before there is nothing more to end.

Now even more ugliness has come in the form of murder by an officer of the law, of a civilian and through the video out there he never resisted arrest, now justice would be these officers involved get what they deserve, but some with the coldest of hearts and full of hatred think that taking justice in their hands is the answer, here is another news flash!!! Two wrongs do not make a right better, it only compounds the issues further, to the point it brings chaos to us all. Rioting, looting, and burning everything up is not the answer, this only shows just how much, we the people have turned on each other through all this so-called, power, control, and greed that has infected us all. This is not the vision God had when he created all of Mankind, this is not what Jesus taught us when he came to us and walked his journey here with us, We the people are not truly like this, we have learned this hatred from somewhere or someone? Our hearts are filled with the love of Jesus Christ, but somewhere along our paths of this journey, our hearts have become cold, instead of the warmth of the love of Jesus, because of all the issues we have buried deeply our true feelings and emotions, leaving us that someone that not even ourselves recognize. We the people have started all this and it’s been going on for some time now, but we the people can end this if only we truly get back to who we are, get back the warmth of the love of Jesus within our hearts, get back our true feelings and emotions we have buried for way too long. We the people need to change our ways, change our actions, feel the empathy we all have within, so the black cloud over this society will pass by and disappear, as we all walk our paths through this journey of life, in the peace and happiness we all so deserve.

 

” The black cloud that hovers above will not last forever, we have to stay strong and get back to who we truly are”

 

” Love and empathy can defeat this hatred and evil, we all need the faith to give us hope moving forward”

 

” We the people started this with our actions, we the people can end this with our actions and being truly of who we are”

 

 

The path through the journey

by bowlingchef, posted in america, annunciation parish, annunciation parish of gardner, annunciationgardner.org, annunciationparishgardner,com, bill clinton, bill gates, blake shelton, blogging, boston magazine, bostons title town talk, bowlingchef, catholicfreepress.org, Catholics, christianity, creative writing, daily prayer, donald trump, facebook, facts of life, gardner catholics, gardner news, gardnercatholics, gardnercatholics.com, global, god, good friday, google, inner child, internet.org, Uncategorized

 

We all walk a path through this journey of life, The paths are not always smooth like silk, nor are they as beautiful as a Rose on a sunny day. There will be many trying times that bring the clouds and the darkness, that makes the path hard to navigate with each step, we need to take one step at a time and feel our way around each corner, but one thing that is for sure, the darkness will never last and the light is always in front of us when we keep the faith so the hope will help us move forward always, with the strength to be better with each step.

Sometimes we need the darkness so we can see more clearly of what is truly around us, the darkness brings us to appreciate everything more, not take for granted all that we may have, the path can only be smooth for so long, only when it appears to be smooth we then get stuck in the comfortable rut that may have us find this fake reality, then there are these life events that may come to us, some will try to knock us down and disrupt our journey, while others will simply pass with little trace, we do not know it at the time, but these events can help us move forward better and stronger, just in the heat of the event we become lost and totally lose sight of who we truly are.

All the paths through this journey of life are not magical and do come with some work, just that we have to work as we go, so we can smoothen the path with each step. We should never take anything for granted throughout this journey, only because nothing ever lasts unlike what the visions within our dreams may show us, dreams may be something that has us escape our reality for the short term, but as the dreams come from our inner self, could they possibly help us heal from our realities?  It is okay to dream to help us escape, because when we put in the work then just maybe our dreams will help us walk our paths of this journey better and stronger.

This journey through life will bring us to many crossroads, many other paths that will bring us to a world of temptation, but when we stay true to who we are, then the temptations of these will pass like the darkness and the storms that may come to disrupt us along our paths, this journey comes with many twists and turns that will make us dizzy if we do not pay attention, but with the faith in ourselves and in Jesus Christ, the hope will always be right there in front of us, to keep us happy and healthy throughout this journey, with true happiness coming to us as we walk the path we chose. This journey through life will throw everything at us, even the kitchen sink, but when we stay true to who we are, no matter what is thrown at us and with the hard work we put into our paths, the path we chose to walk will always be as smooth as we want it, because to us and within our hearts, no matter how rocky the road is, the path through this journey of life, will always be as smooth as silk and be as beautiful as the Rose on a sunny day.

 

” Like the darkness, the storms will pass, bringing us into the light and away from any temptation that may be around the corner”

 

” The magic of the path is totally within our power if we truly believe and stay true to who we are”

 

 

National day of Prayer

” Jesus answered and said to her ” if you knew the gift of God and who is saying to you” ‘give me a drink’, you would have asked him and he would have given you living water”

Jn 4:10

 

Basically with this passage, it is saying that we in this society have not only walked away from Jesus Christ but because of that, we also have lost the true faith and hope that Jesus gives us, when we acknowledge him and his love for us that is deep within our hearts and souls always and forever, then Jesus will always walk this journey with us, as we move forward better and stronger.

 

May we all join together in Prayer today not just for ourselves, but for each other asking Jesus to waive his healing hand over the world, so this virus that has encompassed the world, will disappear, leaving us all with good health and prosperity. Prayer is something that we have lost the faith in, now yes I get the fact that Jesus may not seem real to us in this society and I get the fact that it may be hard to have faith in someone that we have never seen, but that is what having true faith in someone or something is all about. When we have true faith in ourselves as well as Jesus Christ, this is what gives us all hope moving forward to be better and stronger.

 

This picture shows the calm peacefulness of the water while showing the true beauty of what is around you,  very true that the water can be churned up and show us a very different picture, but when we truly feel the love of Jesus deep within our hearts and souls, truly have the faith of ourselves and Jesus Christ, then we all can see the hope of goodness always right in front of us, with zero ugliness like we see today. The love of Jesus Christ is that bridge helping us over the troubled waters when the water becomes churned up,

 

Currently, right now we are walking the forty-day journey known as Lent, which quite frankly does not surprise me that such a virus would run rampant among us, only because this should be all the proof we need to show us, just how much we have distent ourselves from the love of Jesus. When we truly feel the love of Jesus within us, this will then help us all not only be in touch with our true feelings of love but will also let us share this love with each other, as we all walk our paths through this journey of life.

 

Through love is where the quaint peacefulness comes from, with faith is where we have hope for anything, then when the waters become churned up, the storm will never last as with Jesus it will only be a passing storm that will cleanse the earth of all the bad, leaving nothing but good with the bright sunshine of all our love at every turn of this journey. May the peace of God be with you always, as the love of Jesus Christ within our hearts and souls shines as brightly as the sun on a clear day, so we all can walk our paths in peace and walk this journey together in harmony with each other throughout the world, leaving the ugliness of Satan and all the viruses behind us forever throughout this journey.

 

” National day of Prayer so we all can heal from the ugliness and become one with each other, while we renew the love of Jesus within our hearts and souls”

 

” True the waters can be churned up and become ugly, but with the faith of Jesus he can be the bridge to help us cross the churned-up waters”

 

” The forty-day journey is for us all to renew ourselves with Jesus, so we can cleanse ourselves of all the ugliness that has consumed us”

 

” With faith, we will always have the hope to get through anything that may try to knock us off course and avoid the bumps and bruises that Satan may try to inflict on us”

 

 

There are roads then there are roads

There are many roads for us to navigate upon as we drive in our vehicles, some of these roads will be traveled by many as well as roads that may seem very desolate. What most here in this society take for granted is, at one time very many years ago, even within a much earlier century, there were no roads, you wanted to get from point A to point B, then you found a way, whether by foot or maybe you were smart enough to tame a wild horse, to become your friend as well as your transportation.

Back in time at a place in history where we off today have zero ideas of, our ancestors actually found a way around not having a vehicle as they weren’t even thought of yet, so much we have today never even existed back then, but we of today take them so for granted. outbreaks of illness or viruses that make their way around the world, back then they dealt with the best of their ability and yes many perished from the sicknesses, but they didn’t panic as the left bias media wants us to today, speaking of media….. there was no such thing as you knew nothing of what was going on around you if something was happening in China, you knew nothing here in the new world known as the Americas.

We have become so engulfed with all this ugliness, hatred and drama in this society, we have totally forgotten what we truly are here for. We have forgotten that we are all here to walk our paths through this journey of life, not all of us take the same paths, but the journey is all the same, with the same beginning as well as an ending. God also sent his one and only son here to walk his journey here with us, his name was Jesus Christ and he taught us many things as he led us to the path of righteousness, but unfortunately within this society of chaos and craziness, we all have wandered to far away from Jesus, as a matter of fact, there are some who have totally lost the belief in him as well. Jesus does not discriminate he loves us all equally and he will never leave us, only we will leave him as we lose the faith and belief in him.

We all have our own way to chat with and be with Jesus Christ, some may go to a house of God to be nearer to him, as others will do so in their own privacy, there is no right or wrong way, we just have to believe in our hearts, to have the faith in Jesus, so we all then can feel his presence deep within our souls. Now even within the house of God, there may be some who go just to say they are there, then as they leave forget totally of why they were there? Within this society, if you even say the name of Jesus, people will give you funny looks, religion, and politics some say do not mix and when you talk publicly of them, now you are cast a crazy person, only because others are trying to hide who they truly are, for one reason or another. This society has become so engulfed within a media that really does not care for you and me, that we all have stopped walking our paths through this journey of life and are only wandering and existing in our fake realities, instead of being true to who we are, having faith in and believing in Jesus Christ, so we can truly feel his existence deep within our souls, then as we accept Jesus within our hearts, we then can get back to truly walking our paths with a purpose and being truly happy throughout this journey of life, without being caught up in all the drama, being consumed so much within the left bias media, then just maybe all the fake media will go away and only the true real media remains? Some media wants you to follow them like the twelve disciples followed Jesus, but as you stay true to who you are, you will clearly see that there is a big difference between Jesus and the media.

There are roads and then there are roads, whether you travel on a paved road or you elect to take the dirt road, there really is no right or wrong road as we all will go our own way, we will walk our own paths throughout this journey, now some may become jealous for others seem to have more, it really does not matter of what you have, only when you keep Jesus within your hearts and feel his presence within your soul, now you will have all you need, so you then can walk your paths successfully throughout this journey of life, as you move forward in the peace and happiness you so deserve.

 

” A dirt road or a paved road it really doesn’t matter if you travel correctly on the road”

 

” Jesus Christ is always within our hearts and souls, we just have to accept to truly feel his presence”

 

” Never take anything for granted as you never know when this journey will end and all is taken from us”

 

” Faith and belief is not just reserved for Jesus Christ, it is also for ourselves as well to be better and stronger moving forward”

Now that Winter is almost fully in the rearview mirror, it is about that time to start switching gears and getting ready to get out within mother nature once again. Enjoying all the true beauty that is around you, enjoying the sweet smell of the fresh clean air, without the smog and funky smells of the city. Get the kayak ready and stretch out the camping gear, plus this season I will be attaching a go-pro to the kayak and taking some great video for my U-tube channel, maybe even attaching to my backpack for some hiking video as well, I also thought I never would, but I have also started an Instagram for another platform to show my adventures in mother nature and share some great pictures as well as videos. so now you can follow my words here, then my adventure trips on my twitter, my Facebook page at tireless freelance writing, my Instagram and let’s not forget some great video on my U-tube channel as well.

I can’t wait to get out within mother nature and leave this broken society in the rearview mirror for a while, spend a week or two within the woods full of adventure without listening to all the drama at every turn, the biggest problem within this society is, we all get so wrapped up within the unwanted print news or the tv news, that we forget there is so much beauty all around us. Then there is this thing called work, yes we all need to work to make the ends meet and take whatever adventures we take, but it is also good to step away from the daily grind, step away from the daily drama and all gossip that we try to avoid, clear our minds of all the crap so we can heal ourselves of our troubles and start fresh with a clean slate, to move forward better and stronger as we walk our paths of this journey through life.

I don’t know about you? But I am done with all this election crap, all the attacking of each other on the debate stage, I mean if you can not run for a public office on your own merits without attacking your opponent, then maybe you shouldn’t be running for any office at all, that is just my opinion. Then there are all the lies and making yourself out to be somebody you are not no wonder why this society is so broken? Now there are some who live for all this drama, the bickering, the attacking and get so consumed with all this crap, that they then forget that there is this thing called life, that you need to actually work at, so you can walk your path as smoothly as you can. Plus there are these candidates that offer free stuff as their pitch to get into office and there are some who actually buy into this pitch, who do you think will actually pay for this free stuff? You guessed it, the ones that actually work very hard and pay their taxes, so those lazy types can buy into all the free talk.

Mother Nature has a lot more to offer you than any so-called candidate, that will offer you the world and never deliver on what they offer, true mother nature can at times show her fury, but also true that she has so much beauty for us all to see as well and even better, with each trip into her back yard, you will always see something different. Then there is all the different plant life, some that you will never see in your daily grind, the so many different species of wildlife for us all to enjoy to see in their natural habitats, now as we venture within mother nature let’s not forget two major rules, 1, we are now in the home of all the wildlife, so we need to respect them as we want others to respect our homes, 2, always leave no trace behind and respect the land for future visits, not to mention so we can always venture into mother nature to see all the beauty and not the crap that some may leave behind. We all walk our own paths through this journey of life, so if we all come together in unity, respect each other, show empathy of each other, then just maybe we can eliminate all the crap, the hatred, and the ugliness, as we all move forward in peace and harmony always.

 

” The beauty of mother nature is all around us we just have to get out and explore”

 

” Respect goes a long way when each one of us does it together”

 

” If you can not run for an office on your own merits then maybe you should not run for that office”

da9b9-lent_2013_40days

 

With yet another Lenten season upon us and as the 40-day journey has begun with us going to church and having the ashes placed on our foreheads, let us all sacrifice something within our lives much the same as Jesus did, showing our faith in the Lord and we haven’t forgotten what he did for us all when he walked his journey here with us.

Jesus also walked this 40-day journey and was confronted by many a temptation, with the biggest temptation coming from Satan himself. We like Jesus get tempted by the power of temptation many times through this journey but as Jesus kept the faith in his father as well as himself, showed to us all that even with the power of temptation bearing down on our souls, when we stay true to who we are when we keep the faith in ourselves as well as Jesus Christ, we to can overcome all temptation and no matter how hard we struggle, we can walk our paths through this journey of life, better and stronger and reach for the stars as there is no force strong enough to conquer us as we move forward, just as Jesus did throughout the 40-day journey.

The Lenten season is one of the most special times of the year, but if you have lost all faith in yourself and Jesus Christ, have become a non-believer in any kind of higher power,  then this time of year will have you wondering with no direction and susceptible to any kind of temptation that may come your way. Temptation is a very powerful force that will control everything in its path, yes it can suck you in but it will also spit you out just as fast and it really does not care for the condition it may leave you. We all will be tempted by each other as well. we see one with a lifestyle you dream of, then wonder why you can not have the same? We may try but then end up with much more issues then we can handle, when we just simply be who we truly are, sacrifice when we need to move forward better, so we then can have the strength to resist all temptation that may knock us down and keep us stepping backward instead of moving forward.

Temptation is quite simply Satan trying to take control of us all as well as everything else within this world, temptation at times will come with a sugar coating surrounded by whip cream and cherries, it will promise us the world but never deliver on its promise. When we stay true to who we are, resist all that the temptation may bring to us, never lose the faith in ourselves and Jesus Christ, then we can resist and conquer all that temptation may bring to us, so we may prosper and walk our paths of this journey through life, in the peace and happiness that God envisioned for us all. You can clearly see within this society of today, that there are so many that have given in to temptation, so many that have lost the faith in themselves as well as Jesus Christ and because of that we are all traveling in so many directions, that we all have lost our way and there is no GPS made that will bring us back in the right direction, only Jesus himself can do this, but as we have let Satan control us through the temptations, we do not even give Jesus a thought, let alone even having any faith at all.

So as we walk yet another 40-day journey through lent, let us walk it with a purpose, let us walk it with meaning, as we sacrifice as Jesus did, learn that when we resist the temptation that not all is lost and the world will not end, as with the total belief in ourselves and in Jesus Christ, we can get back to who we truly are, we can get back to walking our paths with confidence, so this journey through life will have a meaning once again, it will have a true direction without wandering in circles, through temptation we become stripped from being of who we truly are and lose sight of what this journey is really about. With the total belief in ourselves and Jesus Christ, we then can truly find that path of righteousness, which Jesus told us about as he walked this journey with us, but right now as we have become overwhelmed with the power of temptation, we are all walking in so many different directions, that we have lost the sight of true reality which will lead us nowhere and further away from, having any faith in ourselves or Jesus Christ.

That old saying of, ” keeping up with the Jones” is so far from the truth, but as we become tempted to do so, we find that what may be good for one, may not be good for another. This journey is full of many paths as well as many temptations, but the only way to walk this journey confidently is, to be truly of who we are and to have complete faith in Jesus Christ, as he showed us in his 40-day journey, just how much he loved us, by the true sacrifice he made for each one of us. It is not about forcing oneself and your beliefs on each other, as it is totally about loving one another, no matter of what may cross our paths and when we walk our paths correctly, then this journey through life will be that of peace and happiness for us all, so as we take stock in our lives in this Lenten season, let us all throw out what we do not need and sacrifice these things, so we then can move forward with what is important, as we then follow the lead of Jesus Christ, away from all temptation, to be better moving forward and as we show respect, dignity, and love toward one another always, throughout this journey of life.

 

” The season of lent is one of sacrifice, much like Jesus did while he showed his true love toward all”

 

” During the season of Lent, we should take stock in our lives sacrifice what we do not need and move forward better with only what we need”

 

” 40 days and 40 nights to get back to who we truly are and move forward better and stronger”

 

” Temptation is a strong force but we are stronger when we stay true to who we are”

 

 

 

 

Sometimes the best precaution is…………..” common sense”

I guess you can say that I am with Mark Levin on this one, Mark is a V-Jay on the Blaze with Glen Beck, saying that he would rather take the advice of a healthcare official and not from Pelosi or Schumer. It is pretty sad when our so called leaders have to politicize even a virus, simply because they are so far in denial, they can not see the true reality of anything they look at. Now in this day and age with all the technology and social platforms, it is very true that everything spreads like wildfire in every direction around us, tragedies and natural disasters can be seen within minutes on all the social platforms, then you add in a media that will stop at nothing to achieve their big drama agendas, now you will have anything the size of a mogul, turn into the size of a mountain or even bigger.

Now I get the fact that this Coronavirus is crippling countries with many lives being lost, but unlike what some on the left are saying, there are safety measures being taken by all the countries, but what we of today simply forget is, when we use our common sense, we then don’t need our Governments to dictate what we should do and only aid us all to be safe moving forward. This Coronavirus is spreading around the world kind of like the virus of 1918, true 99% of us were not around then and maybe very few are still here from that time, but either way, we are not going to remember what happened 102 years ago, which makes it that much more important to glance back to move forward better and stronger, as the virus from 1918 took the lives of 50,000,000 people and what the media of today will not tell you is, both these viruses originated in China, so what is wrong with knowing the truth, so we can truly help fix what we need to fix, as we all walk our paths through this journey of life.

Very true there have been many more diseases and viruses that have overcome us throughout the history of us all walking through this journey of life, so instead of being like those on the far left and pointing the finger of blame in any way that they can for their agendas, maybe we should take a look back within history from time to time, so we then can be a bit more informed, use the common sense that is within us all, as we all move forward and not backward, throughout this journey of life. Yes within this society of great technology and the fact that we the people can be so dumb, that instead of using our social media platforms for good and informing us ahead of time for what may be coming, instead, we let the far-left liberal media dictate to us through their platforms of all the drama of everything, whether that drama be true or “Fake”. It is never too late to change what we may be doing, as change is also a huge part of this journey, the change will come to us in many different ways and when we accept change and adapt to the change, then the change shouldn’t be all that scary and come with minimal pain to us all, as we walk our paths through this journey of life.

 

” Change can scare the crap out of us all, it can bring great pain as well, but when we accept and adapt to it properly can be just as beautiful than this journey of life”

 

” Precaution is kind of like preventive medicine, we document it within our brains and let common sense do its thing”

 

” Sometimes we need to glance back in time to adjust and fix what we may be doing wrong now moving forward”

 

 

 

The many Gaps throughout this journey

These rocks have many gaps with one main gap, which is the one that the water flows through and down forming the falls, no matter where we may look, there are many gaps all around us, with the biggest gap being between each one of us also known as the ” Generation Gap”. The Generation Gap can be so very far apart or it can be closer than we would like, but none the less there is a Generation Gap of the entire Human race whether we learn to accept it or not?

The Grand Canyon has many big gaps from one side to another, just as we as well like, the younger generation and the golden year’s generation, now unlike what some may want to accept, those in their golden years are definitely more experienced along this journey, now true that they may not have all the answers as they also might not have taken the same path through this journey, but also very true that they also have walked this journey and have seen many moons, as well as many sunsets and sunrises as well. Throughout this journey of life for some reason or another, we tend to think we ourselves have all the answers and that we know more than the other and with that, we then think that even with the path we walk and that no other has walked the same path, that we know everything and the rest need to learn from me? There is so much we all need to learn of this journey if only we could set aside our differences, then just maybe we all could coincide as we walk our paths, through this journey of life in the peace and serenity we all so deserve.

There are so many Gaps from time to time we will step within them instead of over them, some of these Gaps are quite deep and can hurt very deeply as well, which is why it is just as important to pick ourselves up properly, or the pain will overcome us so much that, we may never walk through this journey correctly because we then let the pain dictate how we walk, instead of us dictating just how we step on our paths of this journey through life. For us to step over the gaps is a lot different than the water flowing down the gaps and over the rocks, then down into the pool below, now we may not be able to flow like the water over the falls, but we can flow just as easy along our paths when our steps along the path we chose, don’t become too spread out and force us to get out of sync with what is around us.

The Waterfall of life so gracious as it flows along the path of its journey, one of the many beauties we can see when we step outside and take an adventure, then as we see all of its beauty, we then can heal ourselves of all our troubles and pain, so we can move forward to be better and stronger always throughout this journey, there are many gaps throughout this journey, it is when we let the gaps dictate the way we walk our paths, that makes the journey a bit rougher than it should be, but when we dictate how we step over the gaps, then it is as easy as one foot in front of the other.

 

” The Generation Gap could be wide or it could be narrow, so no matter what we all still need to coincide to move forward better and stronger”

 

 

” The Grand Canyon has many Gaps as it is the Gaps that stand out through all else”

 

 

” The beauty of a waterfall within the mountains is as beautiful as it gets with no question”

 

” With the many Gaps along the journey never let the gaps dictate of just how you walk your path”
