As we walk our paths through this journey of life, there will be many views for us to see, the views within mother nature will be the most picturesque of all the views, but if you do not look deeply into what you are viewing, you will never truly understand of what you are looking at. We all will view everything differently, if you take the same picture and show it to many people, then there will be many views and interpretations of that picture, this is a fact of life and a true fact that most simply do not understand.

A view can also mean a vision that each one of us has, an ideology that is formed within our minds, now these ideological views can be sane and make sense, or they can be so far fetched that they can turn us into someone for who we truly are not. these far fetched ideological views are the division that is ripping each one of us from each other, because when we do not see what others see, then they develop this complex that then defines them, we all have our different views of everything around us, but when we try to shove those views down the throats of everybody around us, this is where all the division comes from within this society, this is the division that gets in between each one of us and enough so that we can not do our jobs, let alone try to come together in unity and work together for the good of all.

When you add in the Political Correctness that is among us, with all of our different views we all have, now there is a division among us like driving a huge wedge deep within this society and when we are too afraid to admit to this wedge, it just keeps getting deeper until we are now separate from each other, instead of being unified to work together in order to fix the solutions and become better and stronger, throughout this journey of life.

We in this society bicker and argue with each other so much, that we can not truly see what we are looking at, we all think that our views are the correct ones without even looking at the views of others, you can not even have a good solid conversation with another anymore, without going into an argument over each others views anymore, this is the wedge of division that is ripping us all apart from one another today. In today’s society with all these different views, there will be some who will try to run for political office with some getting in, then they suffocate us with their warped and twisted views of what they think is the way we all should go? I have a news flash for these so called political leaders, you work for the people who put you into that office, you do not have the power over all from that office. True there are some good people that are within the offices of our Governments, but their are also a lot of dead wood that needs to go, as they are doing nothing but try to push their views down our throats and occupying a space with their warped and twisted views.

We the people of this society have lost our way as of late and this has been growing for a while now, but with the election of a few warped and twisted views, it is very clear to see just how lost we are, we are so lost that we can not even see through the clouds of our judgments anymore, it’s kind of like hiking to a summit of a mountain with a storm brewing and not being able to see in front of us, as we take each step, the fog and the clouds of the storm are so thick, we can not even see our hands stretched out in front of us, when you keep climbing in these conditions, now you are in dangerous territory as you can take the wrong step and fall to your demise, the correct thing to do is, turn back get to safer ground and live to hike another day. This is the problem in this society of warped and twisted views, there is no one making the correct decisions anymore,

We all have our views of what we see, but unless we look deeper into the views we will never get to the reality of our view. Just look deeply into this picture, some will say we are killing the tree’s, some may say where is the beauty in this picture? The reality of this picture is, the beauty is everywhere because you are out exploring what is within Mother nature, the dead tree’s if you look deeper, could be from what we as people live through and that is, yes even the tree’s get old like us and die as we do, the tree’s also get covered with diseases but unlike us, they can not walk into a medical building for treatment, this is all part of a bigger picture and that picture is of the cycle of life, everything revolves within this cycle, you have things in the prime of the cycle do great, then there are things not as good, as an event or whatever else has effected them so, you have to look at the bigger picture in order to make your view more of reality.

 

” A view we all have, but to see the view as real as we can, you need to look deeply into that view”

” The division within this society is coming from each one of us, with our views and ideologies”

” When the view is cloudy and you can not see what you are looking at, you don’t make up what you think you are seeing”

” A warped and twisted ideology and taking action of that, is the most dangerous thing as a human we can do, as it only brings division among us all”

A Society of zero Accountability equals a Society down a slippery slope……..

Accountability first and for most starts with each one of us holding ourselves accountable for our own actions, before we can even think of holding each other accountable. Right now within this society there is way too much finger pointing and not enough holding ourselves accountable for our own actions. Yes it is very true that because we are Human, we do make mistakes from time to time, but when we do not hold ourselves accountable for those mistakes, then the mistakes get bigger, instead of correcting them and keeping them at a minimum. When we do not own up to our mistakes and point the finger towards another, then the mistakes will compound, not only turning them into something bigger than they have to be, but then the pain from the mistakes will hurt us all deeply, which then keeps us from the solution of being held accountable for our actions and keeping the pain from truly hurting us very deeply.

This picture was once a very vibrant slate quarry, that produced a huge amount of slate, back within the 1800’s, now I get the fact that there is always change that will come into our lives, but when change comes to an industry so vibrant for some other that just may not fill the void, then why change that? Now this quarry is sitting dormant for all these years, with all the fresh growth of Mother Nature all around it, covering what was once open and full of life. Just maybe there are a lot of hidden truths hidden deep within all the fresh growths, just maybe that they to back then went through their non accountability days and now look at what has happened? It seems funny that we all think we have the solutions for everything, but yet look at all the ugliness, the hatred and the crap that is all around us everyday, with none of us truly taking any accountability for our own actions.

There are some who are making it their mission to strip us of all the past, but seriously you need to look back at what was, in order to move forward better and stronger, you learn from your mistakes to be better, well the same goes from one society to another and when you learn from the mistakes of an earlier society, than just maybe a lot of this ugliness and hatred will go away? We the people of this society are the biggest problem within this society and when we do not hold ourselves accountable for our own actions, it then snowballs to the rest of us within this society and becomes bigger than it has to be.

You than have some that will take it upon themselves to control everything around them and will do anything for that control. They do things to others they know is wrong, but will rationalize away the accountability of their actions, just so they can seem to themselves as the most powerful over all? Meanwhile the ones that they take control of, have now become a victim of their control and with that victimization comes, a very deep pain and hurt, which the person in control who takes no responsibility or accountability of their actions, keeps doing as they are only because they think they are doing nothing wrong, then the powers of denial take over and when denial comes into play, then any responsibility and accountability become lost deep within the souls of us all.

This society is so driven to have all the power of each other, that all the responsibility and the accountability are lost deep within our souls and when you look deeply into each others eyes, you will clearly see that the denial has taken over, leaving us all deep within trying to escape the power of the denial. When denial has it’s grasp on us so tightly, we then lose sight of all true reality, we will never admit to this fact only because we do not want to admit to our faults, this is exactly why we are in a this broken society of, no responsibility and no accountability. Yes there is a way out of this and it will take each one of us being on the same page, we need to get over our own arrogance and truly look deep within our hearts and souls, find that the love of Jesus Christ is always there, just that we have never acknowledged his love. When we acknowledge his love and our hearts and souls are full of it, we then feel this warmth within us, that we than share with each other. It is a lot easier to share this love, than to share all the hatred and the ugliness we have been sharing. With the love of Jesus Christ warming our hearts and souls, we will then find that true peace we have always been looking for. True peace is never within the world of no responsibility or accountability, the only thing that comes from that world is the pain and hurt that hurts us so deeply.

Life within this society could be a whole lot easier if only we all did it correctly, instead of trying to control everything and everybody we can. We are all equal in the eyes of Jesus Christ, the only thing different is that we are all unique to each other. I don’t know about you, but I am sick and tired of people in this society that keep playing the race card? This is one of the uniqueness we bring to each other, but some will try to step on the toes of another, just so they can come across as more powerful than another? We need to stop trying to attack one another and start seeing each other as Jesus see’s us and that is, we are more equal than we think, when we do this we will find that the love of Jesus Christ will flow like water, out of each one of us, as we all move forward and walk our paths through this journey of life.

 

” Responsibility and accountability goes hand and hand with each other, like peas in a pod”

” Accountability starts with ourselves then bleeds to each other within this society”

” To rationalize and deny, is what leads to no responsibility or accountability and all the ugliness and hatred around us”

” Power and control when achieved in the wrong way, will always come with much pain and hurt to us all”

 

Standing Alone……

Within this society of today and with the all the social media platforms, most may think having the most followers might make you better than the rest? Just because you get a lot of likes of your status on a platform really does not mean, others care who you are, what people tend to forget is, you are posting a status from behind the screen of your device and it is very easy to portray strength or be someone you really are not. Since the creation of Facebook and Twitter, we all have totally forgotten of who we are, instead we post a status that makes us out to be better than the rest, we hide behind our devices and use them as a crutch, to keep from simply being ourselves, only because for some reason, we totally think we have to put forth this fake identity in order for others to accept us.

Nobody knows how to stand on their own anymore, as all the real ” Social” interaction is gone from this society today. Without real interaction, we simply can not heal in a healthy way from what has hurt us with real pain. Somewhere along this journey through life we all have been hurt with real pain, whether that hurt comes self inflicted, or whether that hurt comes from another around us? The pain still hurts, but we can not truly heal on our own and yes, we do need interaction of others to help us heal in a healthy way.

Now don’t get me wrong The social media platforms can be good when used in the proper way, family members who move away we can still stay in touch like they are still right here with us. Friends we have found in school or college and when those days end, we all go our separate ways, well now we can still stay in touch, for one day when we plan a get together or reunite, to catch up and keep the friendship alive. Throughout this society and with all the drama already within it, these platforms just simply bring even more drama, with some of the ridiculous posts some may place on their status? Most of the posts out their do not even come close to being true, as we have lost that part of the journey and we do not know how to be true, not just to ourselves, but to one another.

What’s in a status you say? Really nothing as being in front of the one you want to chat with, goes a heck of a longer way than what any status can say. Respect and Dignity are gone from this society only because we do not truly interact with each other face to face, It is the true face to face interactions that makes us better and stronger moving forward, between the fake interactions and the posting to a status, we have created this political correctness, which now we become easily offended and the thick skin we used to have is gone, leaving behind all the scars from what brings us pain and hurt, so now we all have become weak and damaged and will do whatever we can to protect ourselves, like hiding deep within just to minimize the pain.

Within today’s society and all the so called friends on our platforms, we really have become a lonely society, lonely because some do not have that one true friend to confide in and vice versa, when the going gets tough, when we talk deeply of ourselves that is when the true healing starts and within all these platforms and the hiding behind a device, this keeps us from being as open as we should, so we than can truly heal ourselves from all the pain and hurt.  In order to be stronger and better as we walk our paths through this journey of life, we always need that face to face interaction, so we than can heal as healthy as we can from whatever keeps us down, hiding behind a device teaches us nothing, the only thing the device may teach us is, make our typing skills that much better, but other than that it really does nothing for us. We can’t even walk within society today without the device in our hands, nor even drive our cars with the device glued to our ears, when we walk down the street we don’t even know where we are going half the time, as we walk with our heads down within our device, instead of looking at where we are going, some have become so addicted to the device, that they can not put it down even for a second. The sad part is, we can change this if we wanted, but these devices have become so convenient, that we do not want to change anything and just keep walking our paths through this journey of life, the way we want so we can keep this fake reality in front of us, so we can hide behind it to keep the pain and hurt hidden deep within ourselves.

 

” Standing alone comes true peace and strength, without hiding behind any device”

” When you stand tall on your own two feet with no crutch, you will always move forward better and stronger”

” A status is nothing really except a bunch of make believe on a platform”

” Social media can be a good thing when used correctly, but like everything touched by man, it has become old and worn out as also we have become the same way”

Get out and explore

Step out of your comfort zone, get away of the things that has become your norm, learn new things, as you stay true to who you are and always, never lose sight of who you truly are. There is so much we accumulate throughout this journey we walk, but what we take for granted is, these material things can be taken from us, as the knowledge we have within ourselves, can never be taken and is always ours no matter of what happens to us. When you go out and explore new things, whether it is doing something different at your 9 to 5, or it is getting out within nature, you are not only gaining confidence in yourself, you are gaining more knowledge, for which you can keep within you, to make you smarter and wiser, as you walk your path of this journey through life.

The trail may look in disarray, or maybe not well marked? But when you stay true to who you are and confident in your abilities, you will always see clearly of where to go and always see clearly of all the true beauty all around you. Unfortunately within a society full of ugliness, hate and corruption, it is very easy to become consumed within it, lose sight of who you truly are, as now you are trying to protect yourself from any harm coming to you, then enters the power of denial, which it will control everything about you and it will control every fiber of your being. Denial will have you see things that are not really there, as you then create this fake reality, which now you become part of the lies and the rhetoric, which is the furthest thing from the true reality.

Not all the trails within nature are clearly marked as you get out and explore, but as you stay true to who you are, these trails will always lead you to great things and never will you become lost, the confidence in your abilities will have you blazing the trail as if it was clearly marked for the direction you want to go. While walking the trail you may come across and see things you normally would not see, you will hear sounds that at first will have you a bit nervous, as later you find the source of the sounds and realize, that the source is also out exploring themselves along their path of this journey. There is so much to this journey, that unless you get out and explore, you will just never know of how much there truly is.

Too someone who just walks through the woods without clearly looking at what they are seeing, they will only see the woods as a mess, with the leaves littering the ground, tree’s and limbs hanging everywhere around, rocks put into places to trip you up, the thick brush making it hard to see where you are going, but too someone who gets out to explore and is true to themselves, will see a different picture within nature, they will see true life, erosion, change and when they look at where they are going, they will see around the thick brush, to blaze their path that others have never tried, you look to the sun in the sky to calculate time and in which direction you are going. How do you think Mankind survived, back in a time without all this technology, a time where cell phones were not even a thought in someone’s brain, we are so consumed within the ugliness of this society, we don’t let ourselves see other societies, that have blazed the trails for us.

We all walk a path through this journey of life, there are many things out there that will trip us up, hurt us with real pain, turn us into someone we truly are not, plus not too mention of the society we live, full of ugliness, hatred and corruption, the easy part is too hide within ourselves to protect ourselves from the pain and hurt, but while we do this we are suppressing further down inside, the love within ourselves, so now the love is know where to be seen. The thing that we forget is, the hate is learned from somewhere and harder to keep going, as the love is already within us and much easier to spread among each other daily, if we all just stay true to ourselves, be who we are always, we will find that all this ugliness, hatred and corruption will disappear, as this is not truly of who we are. We the people have created all this ugliness, hatred and corruption, it is we the people that can end it all also, we just have to stay true to who we are and never become someone for who we are not, so we can stay in touch with the love inside ourselves, as we spread this love with each other, just as Jesus did, when he came to us and walked his journey here with us.

 

” Get out and explore all that is around you and stay true to who you are throughout this journey always”

” Step out of your comfort zone and gain the confidence to walk your path of this journey through life”

” The trails within nature to some may be messy, to others it’s the most beautiful of all the trails”

” All this ugliness, hatred and corruption is hurting us so bad, we are all becoming someone we truly are not”

 

 

To look deeply into what you see, with the right focus

by bowlingchef, posted in annunciation parish, annunciation parish of gardner, annunciationgardner.org, annunciationparishgardner,com, appalachian trail, blogging, boston magazine, bostons title town talk, bowlingchef, camping world, christianity, creative writing, culture, daily prayer, donald trump, environmental, evolution of man, ewtn, facebook, facts of life, gardner catholics, gardner news, gardnercatholics, gardnercatholics.com, global, god, good friday, google, government, great outdoors, hollywood, human behavior, inner child, internet.org, journalism, journalist, journey, journey of life, life magazine, mother nature, mountain, ncis, philanthrophy, philosophy, potus, professional bowlers association, psychology, real change, religion, social media, society, strikers east bowling center, tireless freelance writing, tom brady, twitter, Uncategorized, vatican news, weei radio, white house blog, wilderness, wisdom, worcester diocese, worcester magazine, wordpress, world leaders, worldwide, writers digest

Unfortunately within this society we do not focus on the right things, to truly see the reality of what is around us. “If life was like a deck of cards, we all today are clearly lost within the shuffle of the deck”. Take this picture for instance, most would just float on by without seeing the coolness or the, intrigue part of what we see. There is so much we can learn and see when we get out and explore within nature, the problem we all have is, we are all lost within the shuffle, that we clearly can not see what is around us, which has us all missing the important parts, as we walk our paths through this journey of life.

Look no further than the Individuals for who we vote into office, that are suppose to come together to lead us, to make all our lives better, as these Individuals are clearly lost within the shuffle of the cards of life, which has them in the wrong section of this journey and most dangerous, the section of denial which they clearly can not see any true reality that is around them. If we all just take a step back, look deeper into what we see, then we can stop the shuffle of the deck, get back to true reality and truly see all that is around us, as we then see all the true beauty as well.

This picture is so cool on so many levels, as you look at what is in front of you, you can see all that is within nature, from the erosions, to the new life. The tree may look as if it is growing out of the rock? But when you look deeper, you clearly can see that, through the erosion of the river at it’s highest point, has the roots of the tree becoming exposed to the light of day. Everything in life is subject to erosion over time, even we as Humans erode over time, as when we reach our Golden years, not only does our bodies change, but our minds erode as we call this ” Alzheimer’s, but our pride has us not excepting as we should. With all that is eroding in nature, there is even more new life that comes in, which is also known as the ” cycle of life”. The Cycle of life is a big part of the journey we all walk, just that we take too much for granted everything within the journey, we clearly do not see the cycle. Those within the walls of Washington DC talk so much on global warming or climate change, that they have forgotten, a big part of what is within the life cycle, true we the people with our bad habits and decisions, can and will be a part of the life cycle, but the cycle of life is something that is going to happen no matter what, this is just a part of this journey through life that we need to understand better, so we all can walk our paths of this journey, better and stronger moving forward, without being lost within the shuffle of the deck.

Getting lost within the shuffle of the deck is, kind of like being lost within a big city and never going outside of the city. You protect yourself from what is around you in the city, that you then don’t look at the bigger picture around you, you don’t get out and explore anything that is outside of your comfort zone, which then has you not truly seeing any true reality that is around you. This is kind of like being in denial, which has you making up your own reality, instead of living within true reality, yes there is that element of danger when we get out and explore within nature, it takes us away from our comfort zone, but if we never get out and explore, we will never truly understand what is around us, nor will we ever truly understand the true reality of this journey through life, as we walk our paths within our comfort zones, protecting us from what is around us and losing touch with the ” cycles of life”.

” To look deeper into what is around you, you first have to refocus and get out and explore new things”

” This journey of life is like a deck of cards, which we all get lost within the shuffle”

” Denial keeps us in our comfort zone, which then has us making up our own reality”

” The life cycle of this journey through life is something we all need to understand better, to move forward better and stronger”

Living the Dream………….

” Living the Dream”? What exactly does this mean? I have been hearing this a lot lately, now I know this saying has been around probably for as long as Mankind? But seriously what exactly does it mean, especially when we all have different dreams from each other.

For me living the dream would be on my own little Island with all I need and away from all the chaos, ugliness and hatred, that is within this society of today. Maybe for someone else it might be, being free to do whatever they want to do and whenever they want to do it, just maybe someones dream would be like the American Dream? Which consists of, a house, a white picket fence, a family and a pet, now what most take for granted is, they both still are a dream and we all dream differently, with no two dreams being alike.

Do dreams really come true? Well……………… The jury is still out deliberating on this one, only because everything that comes to us, is there for a reason, everything that happens to us happens for a reason, it is just that we have to find that reason, so we than can move forward on our paths of this journey, better and stronger than ever before. It’s the reason part that we take for granted and most of us, never truly understand this part, so we usually skip this this and move on to the next part of the journey, which then has us all never finding any kind of reason for anything at all. As we walk through this journey. People and things come across our paths, they all have a reason for crossing our paths and will just never…. Just happen, for instance………… Someone wins big on a lottery scratch ticket, this doesn’t happen just because you picked the right ticket, it happened for a reason and it’s up to you to find that reason, so you than can truly understand the phrase of ” Living the Dream”.

True that living the dream is a form of reality for us all with different outcomes for each of us, so now the next time someone says to you ” hey how are you doing”, you can respond in a different way with the same words of living the dream, as now you actually mean what you say, with a true reasoning for whatever dream you are living.

Most dreams usually happen at night while we are sleeping and when we wake, we usually do not remember what we dreamt of while we slept, so as we say to each other the words of, ” living the dream”, how can we actually live a dream if we are awake within reality? With a dream we either do not remember, or it is something fictitious that never really happens. I think maybe we all get so caught up within our own little worlds, with these worlds becoming our own little safe havens, that we then look at them kind of like being on our own little islands, as we try to escape all the ugliness and hatred that is around us today? We can day dream of something, but mostly of what a day dream is, we are escaping the ugliness of what is around us at the present time, either way we look at what a dream is, it is still something fictitious, so we than can escape whether for a short time, the reality of our paths we walk, through this journey of life.

” Living the dream is something we say to each other as it is only a fictitious reality and not true reality”

” Some may be fortunate enough to actually remember their nightly dreams, as most do not, a dream is still just a dream and not true reality”

” A day dream is our way of escaping our realities even just for a short time”

” Everything that comes to us and happens to us there is a reason for it, it then lies on us to find that reason so we can understand better our realities as we walk our paths through this journey of life”

Through the uncharted water’s there is much uncharted land for which to explore and see all the true beauty that is within. At first glance it may not look that inviting? But when you look deeply within as you walk within the dense forest, you clearly see what is hiding deep within the forest, it’s true beauty and the heartbeat of Mother Nature. Land that is still untouched by man, land that the Wildlife roam free, land that in a lot of places you need a canoe or a kayak to get to, as there are no roads leading into it, which is why this land still holds it’s true beauty today.

Some within today’s society get so caught up within the cities, they have no idea of the true beauty around them, they have no idea that there is still uncharted land and water’s all around them, the only way to see this is, to really get out and explore all that is around you. We all work our 9 to 5’s, do our everyday chores, take vacations within our favorite places every year, instead off doing something different, we all get so caught up within the same routine, that we forget there is a far bigger world out there and even a world that, gets lost in the shuffle of life. There is so much to explore, that we don’t even try simply because, we don’t want to get away from the comfort zone we are currently within. Very true within this society we need to make money to survive, but while we are busy making that money, real life is passing us by. we go to our 9 to 5’s and in the process of us making money, we step on each other shine without even seeing at where we are stepping, only because we use each other to get ahead of each other, we think that this is the norm? But this is far from the norm and totally why there is so much ugliness and hatred all around us.

Then there are these ones who totally say what we want to hear, so they can get our votes and become our so called leader’s, as they then forget of what they said to us and only do as they wish for their own agendas? They bicker and attack their fellow constituents, as if we are not here…………. The people who not only put them in office, but the people who they actually work for. There are two parties within the walls of Washington DC, but the way they are all so divided, you would think there are many more than two? They totally think they are doing us all a favor by being in the walls of Washington DC, they really have no clue of how to do the proper job that they are suppose to do. But what they can not see is, the fact that their ideas are so whacked, but yet still push them on the rest of us.

We all walk a path through this journey of life, but when we don’t get out and explore all the uncharted lands and the water, then we are not truly walking through this journey as we should be, we are becoming so stagnant that, we are getting in each others way, instead of helping and loving one another, as Jesus showed us when he came to us and walked his journey with us. There is so much more to this journey, but unless we get out and explore, we will never experience the more and only keep furthering, what we may think is all what this life holds.

” The uncharted waters and the uncharted lands, they are their for us to explore, to see the true beauty and keep moving forward better always”

” We are all so full of ourselves, we clearly can not see any good that is around us”

” The two party system does work, just that we can’t stop fighting with each other to truly see that it does work”

” With the true faith in Jesus Christ as well as ourselves, the uncharted waters we shall see is there for us to explore and cleanse us of our pain and hurt”

Be prepared and ready for all that may cross your path

a pile of snow with a mountain in the background: APTOPIX Everest Death

The World’s highest peak that is mount Everest is a mere 29,029 feet, but what is even more important is the death zone of that mountain, the zone where you need to be prepared and totally know of what you are doing is 26,000 feet, at the death zone elevation is where anything can happen and you need to be hyper-vigilant of your surroundings at all times, not too mention what is happening to yourself in the way of elevation changes as well. There is no messing around hiking this mountain and at no time, should this mountain be used as a conversation piece to brag to others that, ” I have done something you haven’t”. even those in the most tip top shape have struggled hiking this mountain, simply because the elevation is the biggest factor in being totally prepared to hike this mountain.

Hiking this mountain and being above the 26,000 elevation mark is, kind of like a diver in the ocean going below a certain depth, the diver gets what is known as the Bends, when he surfaces he then has to get within a decompression chamber to decompress from the ” decompression sickness”, from ascending to quickly, even with the oxygen or the nitrogen in their tanks they still get this sickness, which is something that nobody climbing mount Everest even thinks about when they climb the worlds highest peak.

Right now the deaths on mount Everest is at an all time high and the Government of Nepal is not even thinking of making any changes to the rules? Right now if you show up with the $11,000 they will issue a permit to you, without even checking your mountaineering skills, or even the health condition of your present self, it is like all things today and about the money, especially for the small country of Nepal looking to survive within today’s world.

I put the blame squarely on all the social media platforms out there and the fact that people hike within areas without being totally prepared, just to gain a bigger presence on these platforms with more followers. Let’s look at a page on Facebook for instance, this page is called I hiked the 4,000 footers club in New Hampshire, this page has people posting pictures and bragging of their hike, with a lot of these hikers, not wearing the proper foot gear, or even carrying the proper equipment to be ready for whatever they may encounter, let’s go one step further here and the fact that, there is not enough adequate parking for all, so they park on the side of an interstate highway, just so they can put pictures up on their Facebook page or whatever social media platform they are using. Hiking anywhere within the white mountains of New Hampshire you need to be prepared for anything, especially the sudden changes in the weather, it can and will snow on the top of mount Washington in the summer and when you can’t find the trail because of the snow, then you need maybe a compass and even be able to see where you are just by looking at the sky, or just maybe remember your surroundings for the return trip. I noticed on my hikes a lot of times, people are looking in front of them for a trail marker and not looking at what is around them? What happens if that marker is not there for whatever reason? What do you do then? When you are above the tree line you see a pile of rocks, what are they? And what are they called? They are Carns and they mark the trail for you to follow.

This picture of the people climbing mount Everest, what is the biggest problem of this picture? If you said the line of people and being way to close to each other, you are 100% correct, because if one of them misstep and fall, now you have a domino effect of all going down and with the cliffs on both sides……………. Well with common sense you can see what is going to happen there. Even with the oxygen they are breathing from the tanks on their backs, that is still not enough at the altitude they are in, then you add in the fact that, when these people get to the top they want to take a ” selfie” and most definitely, they want people to see who they are in the picture, so they then take off the mask of oxygen for the picture, but they don’t realize that, even the seconds that the mask is off, is seconds to long at that elevation. Your body at that elevation is already changing and parts of the body is shutting down, because we are not cut out for this type of rigorous endeavor, no matter how much in shape you think you are? Just like all the deaths happening on mount Everest, there are deaths happening in the white mountains of New Hampshire, simply because people are embarking on these hikes without being properly prepared, for what ever might cross their paths, whether it’s the proper foot gear, to enough water to stay hydrated, or even the proper snacks for protein, or even carrying the right gear in the pack, just in case your stuck in a weather condition that changes drastically, no matter what the hike, you need to be well prepared and ready for anything that you may encounter along your path, of any journey you embark on.

” Be prepared is the biggest of the Boy Scout’s motto and something we all need to adhere to within the journey of life”

” A traffic jam of people on the worlds tallest peak, is something that should never be and dangerous for all stuck within the traffic jam”

” Just because you have $11,000 should never be all it takes to hike the worlds tallest peak”

” Social media platforms are being used in a way they were never designed to be used, because we the people misuse everything we touch without thinking through the ramifications of our actions”

We are better than that.

Pauley Perrette, AKA……….. Abby sciuto for 15 seasons on the number one T. V. show NCIS. I just read an article of her, plus seen some of her tweets recently and she talks about workplace abuse and because of some big machine, a very rich powerful publicity machine, that has kept her silent. This machine has been spreading lies and false stories, now what I read in the article or tweets, mentions no one by name, but the words ” big powerful publicity machine” could be a tell that, it’s none of the cast, but even bigger like a network top exec? like maybe a Harvey Weinstein type? We the people are our own worst enemies, we cheat, lie kill, hurt, mame each other to name a few, this is not of who we truly are and we all need to get out of the walls of denial, before it is too late and we all are gone from existence, gone from walking a path, not just within a society, but within this journey of life.

Pauley Perrette for those who do not know, I have seen her on some talk shows in the past and let’s just say………. she was as real on the show as she is in real life, she is a total sweat heart and would go out of her way to help you. Pauley in real life was a big activist on Bullying, but as I read in the article and got from her tweets, sounds like she was the one being bullied forced to keep quiet from a big, rich, publicity machine. Very sad thinking that here she is counseling others and she is the one being bullied? This is so sad and knowing this is going on everywhere, makes you wonder when, we as a society will grow up, be truly of who we are, so as we walk our paths through this journey of life, we can do so in the peace of Jesus Christ, to be as truly happy as we want to be, while we feel deeply inside our hearts and souls, the love of Jesus Christ, then share that love with each other, instead of all this hatred and ugliness, that does nothing but bring each of us much pain and hurt.

We the people can be as smart as anything and everyone throughout this universe, but with our actions of each other makes us so dumb and childish, that I only hope that someday in my lifetime, we can grow up and walk our paths as Jesus did, so we can see the light on the path of righteousness, so instead of bringing harm, hurt and pain to each other, we can share our love of ourselves with each other always. Now with all the ugliness and the Bullying out there, I really do not think that any of us even love ourselves? This is where it starts, we first have to love ourselves, then the love within will flow to all those around us, as then and only then, will all the ugliness, pain, and hurt disappear from this society. It is not rocket science, we are not building a rocket to go to Mars, we are only loving ourselves then sharing with each other, just as Jesus showed us when he came and walked his journey here with us. We the people of this society need to grow up, we need to escape the walls of denial and truly be of who we really are. Then just maybe we all can walk together as Jesus did, on the paths of our choosing, throughout this journey of life.

” Abuse of any kind, the bulling also should never be tolerated, to be truly of who we are on our paths of this journey”

” When we bully another all we are doing is, burying our own pain and hurt even deeper within, as we never acknowledge only keep pushing it away”

” Jesus never showed us this, as the bullying and abuse is totally on we the people”

” It is easier to take the actions of love from within, instead of putting on a fake face and taking the action of hatred and ugliness”

” As Robin Williams was quiet of his troubles, so to is Pauley of her’s, time to stand up and find the voice of reason, so we all can move forward better and stronger”

The past will always be the past

In today’s society some are trying to take away the past, now I get the fact that we should always move forward and leave the past in the past, but sometimes you need the past to see where you are in the present, so moving forward you can be better and stronger, as you walk this journey through life.

There are times that you have to move forward without looking back, but there are also times you need to look back, take stock in where you were, so moving forward you can make the necessary changes to move forward, without any heavy weights holding you back.

The past will always be the past, but when you look back in time to where the very first vehicles were made, you can clearly see all the progress that industry has made, the innovations from year to year, not too mention the wide variety of different looking vehicles. Then you take a walk through an old time cemetery and see what lies within them, the care taking of them and let’s not forget what is buried deep within them, some of what lies within a cemetery, just may be someone who blazed the very path for which you follow today? You can never take away the path totally, but if you look back correctly, you can certainly learn from it, make the right changes today, so you can move forward better and stronger, on the path you have chosen, through this journey of life.

We all walk through this journey of life, but we all get wrapped up so much in the today that we then tend to forget that, yes we all have come from somewhere, we all have had a past, but sometimes that past wasn’t all that kind to us, maybe there was way too much pain and hurt that came to us in the past, that we want nothing but to forget it, we really don’t forget we just bury it so deep within, that we don’t want to acknowledge it. There comes a time we need to face our pasts, so we can understand better our past, then we can make the necessary changes, as we then take the proper steps to move forward better and stronger and learn that what we should of done was, to not bury our past to try to forget, but what we should of done was, to bury the regret of not taking care of the past then, taking care of the pain and the hurt then, so just maybe we could of taken a more prosperous path, that would of filled our journey with a lot more peace and happiness, instead of sadness, sorrow and less heartache through this journey to date.

The past will always be the past, just as the present will be the present and the future will be the future, you can’t mix the three together and you can’t totally move forward properly without taking care of each one separate, Each one will have their obstacles and hurdles to get over, this is a big part of this journey, this is how we learn, this is what makes us stronger, so we than can move forward better and achieve all that we can, while our futures have great promise. This journey is funny like that, we don’t want to remember anything that brought us pain, but we want to eat up what has brought us good things, but what we always forget is, you need both in order to move forward better and stronger, so as we walk our paths through this journey of life, we can do so with great happiness, peace and prosperity.

” The past will always be the past, but it is also the foundation for the future moving forward”

” Sometimes the pain and hurt will block us from moving forward properly, which is why we need the past to change and refocus moving forward”

” This journey through life has many ups and downs, with many obstacles to get over, this is what makes us better and stronger moving forward”

” Sometimes we need to look back, to see farther into the future”
