October 31, 2024 – A

1) We have done ourselves no favors
with religion forcing dependency
upon the people,
by telling them they are sinful
and have no hope in their own devices
but must believe-BELIEVE!-what someone 
tells them to believe
or they will go to hell
swimming in molten lead lakes
throughout eternity
for their evil, detestable, ways.

We have created generations of people
afraid to live out of their own authority,
waiting to be hold how to think,
what to do.

And they are about to elect
an authoritarian idiot
to tell them how to think, 
what to do,
especially when he tells them,
"Listen to me! I will save you!
From the Deamoncrats who want to
eat your souls!"

Idiots love an idiot who spews out idiocy.
Who is one of them.
What a comfort.
What a terrible, terrible thing.

2) What moves you?
What compels you to action?
What calls your name
and keeps calling until you respond?

What are the meaningful things that you do?
What do you live to do?

I told a neighbor that I fell in love
with a camera when I was 18 years old,
and he would have none of it.
"You can't be in love with an inanimate object!"
I didn't waste any more time with him.
Musicians are in love with their instrument of choice.
Golfers are in love with their clubs
and their courses.

What are you in love with?

We are seeking what is meaningful to us
so that we might serve it with our life.

I am also in love with my intuition,
and I am here to serve it with my life.

Don't go to bed tonight without knowing
what you are in love with.
Without knowing what moves you.
Without knowing what is meaningful to you.

And if you do go to bed without knowing these things,
may you have a dream tonight 
that wakes you up knowing what it is
you are here to love and to serve
throughout the time left for living!
