North wind coming in our way.

We must fight for the health of the water and the land and the people both the workers and the residents in the area.  I have no hesitation that there could be safer ways of doing things.  In Australia it's the "she'll be right attitude that will let this stuff down big time".

We need safe operators doing this.  We cannot make mistakes.  We cannot have drunken hung over young people  thinking this is funny.  It is all of our lives and the risk to the land and the water.

So there are different Fracking practices used across the world.  Deep fracking is different to Shale Fracking. We need to understand what our Government thinks they understand.  They probably have the bull by the veritable tale.

There are four things you can never recover..

The Stone...  After it is thrown
The Word ...  After it is said
The Occasion ... After it is missed
The Time ...When it is gone!

Don't waste your time and energy being angry, but take the opportunity to mend your relationship! It is worth it.  Don't ever leave a situation the way I have been left, unable to ever speak to my children.  My part in this is I told the truth and the truth is disgustingly awful at times.  Perhaps I should have LIED!  I would fit in better if I was a liar perhaps.

Tomorrow is my Texsy's birthday and she would have been thirty three.  I love you Texsy in heaven and wish for you to smile on me always from on high and we will hang out again in heaven I am sure..  I will keep it together I hope.

The only thing standing between you and your goal is the bullshit story you keep telling yourself as to why you can’t achieve it.

-  Jordan Belfort -

For me I really have to step out of my comfort zone.  I really want to go and I will go.  I will have to be good though as I am so naughty because I talk myself out of doing what I want frequently.  Too many opportunities have been lost because I listened to what others had to say.

Harriet Tubman..

Happy Birthday Cathy,  I hope you have a great day today.  A day in Coffs Harbour is not fun though.  Sad Face for you.  Love you very much always.

Harriet Tubman was a woman who felt the love and vibration of helping and assisting your fellow man, your brothers and sisters in the struggle of life.  Life is a struggle and too many have forgotten this fact.

I think that people are in slavery today and they don't actually even realize this.  They are in so much debt that they MUST work in unhealthy situations doing seriously unhealthy things to the planet in order to feed the hungry beast.  A beast that hasn't got any hold on me because I do not work to pay back debts.  I am debt free.

Harriet Tubman (born Araminta Harriet Ross; 1820 – March 10, 1913) was an African-American abolitionist, humanitarian, and Union spy during the American Civil War. After escaping from slavery, into which she was born, she made thirteen missions to rescue more than 70 slaves using the network of antislavery activists and safe houses known as the Underground Railroad. She later helped John Brown recruit men for his raid on Harpers Ferry, and in the post-war era struggled for women's suffrage.

As a child in Dorchester County, Maryland, Tubman was beaten by masters to whom she was hired out. Early in her life, she suffered a head wound when hit by a heavy metal weight. The injury caused disabling seizures, narcoleptic attacks, headaches, and powerful visionary and dream activity, which occurred throughout her life. A devout Christian, Tubman ascribed the visions and vivid dreams to revelations from God.

Sometimes we have to say good bye to the ones who mean the most to us, Because usually they are the ones who are slowly killing us inside!

This is harder than anything I have ever done to date in my life.  I have had to do this alone and with much judgement and zero understanding.  For this I thank no one.

Many memories just there in front of me to remind me of these things.  The Vase that was on the dutchess the entire time that my children were growing still looks at me and sparkles the same.  It sparkles the same and I don't and that can make me cry sometimes.  I don't mind it sparkling its only the  memories I don't like.

If we pursued peace the way we pursue money heaven would touch Earth.

Anthony Douglas Williams / Inside the Divine Pattern

The Western sky in May 2012 ( 24th May)

I have been reading about alchemy and the Khem as it was known in ancient times.  I find this all very interesting as it has great bearing on what the planets are doing in the sky and the relation to this in the earths response.  The symbols of the seven metals interest me a lot too.  Mercury being the astrological symbol of Jupiter.  


Cymist = chemist

Mercury, called quicksilver by the ancients was used to make red mercuric oxide by heating the element in a solution of nitric acid. The reaction of quicksilver in nitric acid is striking as a thick red vapor hovers over the surface and bright red crystals precipitate to the bottom. Alchemists were convinced that mercury transcended both the solid and liquid states, both earth and heaven, both life and death.

ALCHEMY EXPLAINED

 The art of alchemy was handed down through the centuries from Egypt and Arabia to Greece and Rome, and finally to western and central Europe. The word is derived from the Arabian phrase "al-kimia," which refers to the preparation of the Stone or Elixir by the Egyptians. The Arabic root "kimia" comes from the Coptic "khem" that alluded to the fertile black soil of the Nile delta. Esoterically and hieroglyphically, the word refers to the dark mystery of the primordial or First Matter (the Khem).

Simplified, the aims of the alchemists were threefold: to find the Stone of Knowledge (The Philosophers' Stone), to discover the medium of Eternal Youth and Health, and to discover the transmutation of metals. To the medieval alchemist’s mind the different elements were but the same original substance in varying degrees of purity. Gold was the purest of all and silver followed closely.

In the early days of alchemy, the astronomical signs of the planets were also used as alchemical symbols. Then in the centuries of medieval persecution and suppression every alchemist invented his own secret symbols. Charlatans, quacks and cheats took over and alchemy became, along with sorcery and witchcraft, infamous for fraud and extortion. In the 18th century scientists tried to pry loose the real achievements in chemistry, pharmacology and medicine from this confusing cornucopia of science and magic.

"The primary cause of unhappiness is never the situation but your thoughts about it."

Eckhart Tolle.

Mum and Dad

Damn you thoughts.  I thought as we drove off from home, I should have checked the camera's battery.  Wouldn't you know it, I get to these trees and the  battery went flat.  I should either have listened to myself or not thought such a thought.  I wonder which of these was the culprit for this.  Either way it taught me a valuable lesson.  Check all of your equipment before checking out of the house on an image run.

August is getting closer and setting off with Vee Ness is going to be a good thing for me I hope.  I feel like I want to do more than sit here and paint can lids sometimes and I need some new photography to shoot always.  Any where in this country is great to photograph. 

The rant on how I have been feeling along the way:

No way will I give into the thoughts.  I will stand and fight them head on any day of the week.  It is like there is another person now though.  Someone who agrees with Them.  This is the curse of being an active thinker and person who questions and quizzes everything from start to finish.

I have been somewhat unhappy for a few weeks now.  I have struggled with a situation regarding a friend.  I had one of those psychic impressions about the situation.  I saw it and I was feeling so sick from this time onwards.  I will not elaborate on the situation but I will say I knew and felt that my friend had been set up and that the entire thing stank of a set up.  There were lots of things that I saw.   Today I had a visit from another friend who  confirmed to me that what I had seen had in fact taken place.

“It has become increasingly obvious that our technology has exceeded our humanity.”

 Albert Einstein

Today I am very sad to hear of the plights of even more people and I say again. Shut the gate and do not let them on the property and we have to blockade them!  We have to stop them going  up roads to properties.  What these mining and energy companies have done to the out back of Australia is a disgrace beyond measure.  Finally mums and dads are waking up to the tactics of this government and its greedy filthy mining / tax breaks for the rich policies.  The people of AUSTRALIA are calling for a ROYAL COMMISSION INTO MINING in this country.  The situation is completely out of control. 

The federal government must cease and desist from this effective now and re pay people back whose lives they have destroyed completely!  This is the biggest fight I have ever witnessed.

Image by Mezza -  The Back door at Dawn

Your energy is just balancing itself.

Home is now here. We are all finally coming home.

almost to the top here

1. Feeling as though you are in a pressure cooker or in intense energy; feeling stress. Remember, you are adjusting to a higher vibration and you will eventually adjust. Old patterns, behaviors and beliefs are also being pushed to the surface. There is a lot going on inside of you.

2. A feeling of disorientation; not knowing where you are; a loss of a sense of place. You are not in 3D anymore, as you have moved or in the process of moving into the higher realms.

3. Unusual aches and pains throughout different parts of your body. You are purifying and releasing blocked energy vibrating at 3D, while you are vibrating in a higher dimension.

4. Waking at night between 2 and 4 a.m. Much is going on in your dream state. You can't be there for long lengths of time and need a break. This is also the 'cleansing and releasing' hour.

5. Memory loss. A great abundance of short term memory loss and only vague remembrances of your past. You are in more than one dimension at a time, and going back and forth as part of the transition, you are experiencing a 'disconnect'. Also, your past is part of the Old, and the Old is forever gone. Being in the Now is the way of the New World.

6. 'Seeing' and 'hearing' things. You are experiencing different dimensions as you transition, all according to how sensitive you are and how you are wired.

7. Loss of identity. You try to access the Old you, but it is no longer there. You may not know who you are looking at in the mirror. You have cleared much of your old patterns and are now embodying much more light and a simpler, more purified divine you. All is in order, You are okay.

8. Feeling 'out of body'. You may feel as though someone is talking, but it is not you. This is our natural defense mechanism of survival when we are under acute stress or feeling traumatized or out of control. Your body is going through a lot and you may not want to be in it. My ascension guide told me that this was a way of easing the transition process, and that I did not need to experience what my body was going through. This only lasted a short time. It passes.

9. Periods of deep sleeping. You are resting from all the acclimating and are integrating, as well as building up for the next phase.

10. Heightened sensitivities to your surroundings. Crowds, noise, foods, TV, other human voices and various other stimulation is barely tolerable. You also overwhelm very easily and become easily overstimulated. You are tuning up. Know that this will eventually pass.

11. You don't feel like doing anything. You are in a rest period, 'rebooting'. Your body knows what it needs. In addition, when you begin reaching the higher realms, 'doing' and 'making things happen' becomes obsolete as the New energies support the feminine of basking, receiving, creating, self-care and nurturing. Ask the Universe to 'bring' you what you want while you are enjoying yourself and having fun.

12. An intolerance for lower vibrational things of the 3D, reflected in conversations, attitudes, societal structures, healing modalities, etc. They literally make you feel 'sick' inside. You are in a higher vibration and your energies are no longer in alignment. You are being 'pushed, to move forward; to 'be' and create the New.

13. A loss of desire for food. Your body is adjusting to a new, higher state of being. Also, part of you does not want to be here anymore in the Old.

14. A sudden disappearance of friends, activities, habits, jobs and residences. You are evolving beyond what you used to be, and these people and surroundings no longer match your vibration. The New will soon arrive and feel so-o-o-o much better.

15. You absolutely cannot do certain things anymore. When you try to do your usual routine and activities, it feels downright awful. You are evolving beyond what you used to be, and these people and surroundings no longer match your vibration. The New will soon arrive and feel so-o-o-o much better.

16. Days of extreme fatigue. Your body is losing density and going through intense restructuring.

17. A need to eat often along with what feels like attacks of low blood sugar. Weight gain, especially in the abdominal area. A craving for protein. You are requiring an enormous amount of fuel for this ascension process. Weight gain with an inability to loose it no matter what you do is one of the most typical experiences. Trust that your body knows what it is doing.

18. Experiencing emotional ups and downs; weeping. Our emotions are our outlet for release, and we are releasing a lot.

19. A wanting to go Home, as if everything is over and you don't belong here anymore. We are returning to Source. Everything is over, but many of us are staying to experience and create the New World. Also, our old plans for coming have been completed.

20. Feeling you are going insane, or must be developing a mental illness of some sort. You are rapidly experiencing several dimensions and greatly opening. Much is available to you now. You are just not used to it. Your awareness has been heightened and your barriers are gone. This will pass and you will eventually feel very at Home like you have never felt before, as Home is now here.

21. Anxiety and panic. Your ego is losing much of itself and is afraid. Your system is also on overload. Things are happening to you that you may not understand. You are also losing behavior patterns of a lower vibration that you developed for survival in 3D. This may make you feel vulnerable and powerless. These patterns and behaviors you are losing are not needed in the higher realms. This will pass and you will eventually feel so much love, safety and unity. Just wait.

22. Depression. The outer world may not be in alignment with the New, higher vibrational you. It doesn't feel so good out there. You are also releasing lower, darker energies and you are 'seeing' through them. Hang in there.

23. Vivid, wild and sometimes violent dreams. You are releasing many, many lifetimes of lower vibrational energy. Many are now reporting that they are experiencing beautiful dreams. Your dream state will eventually improve and you will enjoy it again. Some experience this releasing while awake. My mother commented one day that she believed I was having nightmares in the daytime.

24. Night sweats and hot flashes. Your body is 'heating' up as it burns off residue.

25. Your plans suddenly change in mid-stream and go in a completely different direction. Your soul is balancing out your energy. It usually feels great in this new direction, as your soul knows more than you do. It is breaking your 'rut' choices and vibration.

26. You have created a situation that seems like your worst nightmare, with many 'worst nightmare' aspects to it. Your soul is guiding you into 'stretching' into aspects of yourself where you were lacking, or into 'toning down' aspects where you had an overabundance. Your energy is just balancing itself. Finding your way to peace through this situation is the test you have set up for yourself. This is your journey, and your soul would not have set it up if you weren't ready. You are the one who finds your way out and you will. Looking back, you will have gratitude for the experience and be a different person.

I have allowed the Unknown to affect me - Meditation

 The meditative state is a state that used to have a law on me entering.  I found it very difficult to be able to  still my mind to a point where nothing was going on.  The more I tried the harder it was.  I was being in a state of trying and this is not meditation. So I gave up.

I gave up for a long long time.  I even tried substances to take me to that place of where ever I felt I needed to be.  The substances worked for a tiny while.  I became bored with that and at a young age. There was one other time I felt myself rise to that level.  This was  when I gave birth to my son, my first child.  I was in that same state for some six hours post the birth of this child.  I felt the energy rise up my spine like someone was shooting a fire hose of warm water up the length of my back and into my head and then spilling all over me.  I felt like I could run up Mt Everest I was so enlivened by this energy inside of my body.  This was the Kundalini.  which is most certainly present during the birth process.  I would love to know more about this now also.

My life has now been long and off and on through out my life I have participated in other various meditations but it was always a similar outcome.  My bones would get itchy and restless.  I wanted to flex and fight this feeling.  Its a funny sensation to feel this in your body. 

I wanted to still my mind.  I wanted the healing that comes with this stilling.  I didn't give up!  So I think this is half the key.  Don't ever give up completely.  Walk away and take a break but don't give up.  I finally found a way

I  understand the concept of seeing yourself in your own minds eye.  This is where I started and I only did this for very short periods.  But I found this even a challenge.  To really close my eyes and visualize myself looking at myself.   Finally.... success.  Finally, I was able to do this.  I commenced this after sun gazing each day and found that I could communicate with the animals while in this state of consciousness.  Not talk like we talk.  It was a mind thing where I was impressing on their brain my thoughts.  Interesting as sometimes this worked well, especially with the dog and her behavior.   If winter was not here, and the dog tucked in her bed, we may be a little further along with that.  She doesn't want to get out in the cold though but summer is coming, so there will be time again to do this with her in the  future.

I felt great changes occur inside of me almost the same week I commenced this.  Like my brain was opening up and sucking in stuff like a vacuum cleaner like manner.  The answers to an array of questions I have carried around for years came in the space of a week.  My body was buzzing. 

I really felt like I was being switched on.  Then, out of the blue I was overwhelmed with the urge to go paint.  I scoured the cupboards for old paints I used with the kids, I found them and they were all dried up.  Good, I thought, more rubbish to loose.  Next morning I went down to the shops and bought a cheap set of Oil Paints  and started to paint.  I painted for 48 hours with a 6 hour break non stop.  I was compelled to paint these blessed things.  They were my tin can lids I had lovingly prepared for some decoration but nothing on the scale of what I actually painted.  These are earmarked for my Canowind Chimes inventions.

Brice fed me cuppas and I stayed fairly silent.  Stopping for light conversation only with my partner during this time.  He was fascinated also.  He knows I am not a painter of art.  I love art but I have not really ever considered myself capable of painting very much at all.  I was more of a house painter.

Some of the questions answered were regarding the civilization I heard of in the Pacific that is now mostly on the bottom of the ocean.  These were things I was questioning.  The Easter Island statues,  Coconut water, Mangoes.  A wonderful woman named Beverley pointed me in the right direction.  People were there when I needed them in perfect timing. I had now  read the Ancient books of Mu by James Churchward.

 There was so much information and many beautiful diagrams of what he wrote about what he had seen and had interpreted by the Rishi Priest.  Then it started, my mind was all but saying to me, "Come on lets paint".  Like a David Bowie song lyric, Lets Dance.  It was echoing in my head to do this.  AMAZING.  The results even amazed me.  24 beautiful discs all decorated in the most intricate and ancient designs and each one echoing the glyphs from the cuneiform tablets found in temples that told the stories of Lemuria.

I felt myself falling into the well of ancient love.  I could feel this was really healthful.  It was peaceful as I sat and brushed so delicately and precisely the lines and the dots.  The beginning was highlighted with much dot work like I had recently witnessed at Uluru in Central Australia.  The dots seem to morph onto straight and precise patterns and lines with feeling.

The artists impressions in meditation

What I can report of myself after this occurred is a much greater sense of awareness and a feeling of warmth emanating from me.  I stood barefoot on the cool winter ground bare foot and my feet were not cold.  It is Winter and I was fine, and that is unusual as I am the one who clings to any warmth, commonly known as the heat leech.   I fully feel the change is now in full swing.  The meditation, the suns beams, my pineal gland is like swelling in my head sometimes.  This could be the reason for the strange headaches too.

Exerpts from Osho

One day, suddenly, you will find a window opens, and a fresh breeze with new rays has filled your heart. Again, don’t commit the same mistake! Be thankful for what is happening, but don’t ask for more — and more will be coming. Don’t ask, “Come again” — your asking will become the barrier.

It will come again, it will come more often. Slowly, slowly it becomes your heartbeat; waking, sleeping, it is always there, it never goes. But it is not your doing. You cannot brag that “I have done it.” You can only say, “I have allowed the unknown to do it to me.” It is always from the unknown that great experiences enter into our small hearts, and when we are trying hard to get them, we become so tense that the very tension prevents them.

I have allowed the unknown to do this to me.  Yes and I knew it was all absolutely fine.  It was as though I was feeling the plasma falling around me and soaking in the crevices of my body.  That is how warm it was and what I was feeling.  I shall not push. I will wait.

For the record .. You must say this out loud to believe it and say it with an Indian Accent so it means something.

" Religion is a bondage.  It keeps you unaware of your unawareness."
Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh

As deep as the holes you left in my mothers ground 
It's deep and its hell spreading round
And down here on the ground
Where the people are told to shut up

We live in interesting times The Chinese curse has come to pass.

Written by Atalanta Lloyd-Haines ( https://www.facebook.com/atalanta73)

We live in interesting times
The Chinese curse has come to pass.
The state has a stranglehold,
are we a democracy?
Where our choice is between the far right and the extreme far right
Where anyone dissenting is labelled a lefty extremist?
And in jeopardy of being jailed as a terrorist.
It's a web of deception pointing us in a particular direction.
Just watch the media -
hooking us on big pharma (it all starts with Panadol)
and out-of-control consumption,
Give me Anarchism
Voluntary co-operation
freedom from the oppression
of Government and big business.
A shift in perspective from
what we have
A Welfare state
with the subsequent restriction of rights
in exchange for SOCIAL SECURITY
What is social security really?

Am I so radical really?
Wanting to be free of capitalism, fascism and all the other isms...
Govern/mentality, all of them
Pushing “regimes of truth” that are
most bloody.
Who decided that the people require guidance, and for what purpose?
War? Workers for industry?
So some may be wealthy beyond measure
Whilst the rest starve
So many laws
So little purpose
Except to control
A most bloody and avaricious regime of truth
consumes the planet
All the isms at play now bow
to the God of them – Capitalism
They make me sick
these excuses for government -
doing the bidding of big business
Who are the true rulers and dictators
Progress, industry, consumption and greed
Just look at the gas field's steadily making
land uninhabitable
State and Federal government
allowing the interests of
profit and petrol and progress
over the health of the land
and therefore all living things...
Goodbye drinking water
Good governance be damned
Its all good on paper
A stripped back public service
privatization of public assets
Yet, without the nicety of
steering rather than rowing

Atalanta is studying at the moment and as a response to some of her study she wrote this.  I loved the writing because it is real and from the heart.  I am so pleased she is studying to become an effective teacher in the community!
So many protest sites all over Australia at the moment.  There is protesting against Fracking , Roxby Downs and the Gas Hub in the Kimberly  and up near Broome they are building a 2klm long jetty to ship the GAS out.  The place in the Kimberly is the home of the Killer Whale. This is the totem too.  The whale will rise up in the ocean and slap its tail down so hard none of us will survive. 
The Sleeping Lizards belly is being gouged out.  Inside of his body are a rainbow of  poisons to kill the miners.  Please go home and leave the lizard alone.  Honestly it will not be worth it to any of us.

 THE GATES OF HELL

Sleeping underneath the ground there is an old lizard Kalta the sleepy lizard. 

BHP is mining right into that Lizard's body.

BHP ARE THE BIGGEST LIARS OF ALL

From the BHP Billiton website: 

"Our Uranium business currently comprises the world-class uranium and copper deposit at Olympic Dam in South Australia. In addition to copper and uranium Olympic Dam also contains significant quantities of gold and silver. Olympic Dam is the world's largest uranium deposit and fourth largest copper deposit. At Olympic Dam we mine, process, smelt and refine the ore to final products. Specifically, we deliver uranium oxide concentrate to utility customers exclusively for the generation of electricity in civil nuclear reactors."

 BHP last night were caught dumping in the Georges River.  They were fined but it is a drop in the ocean to them and today they are laughing about it and  planning how not to get caught. 

We Australians need to stand side by side the ones there in various protest sites currently in Australia, its hit em hard and hit em big.. this is the attitude of the government now.  They have sites to protest EVERYWHERE so this will confuse some of the ordinary people who want to help but become confused.  Another dirtly low tactic of  the Australian piece of shit Government.

Get a hold of this because the traditional owners of this land and the land up near Broom and down on the Headland all need our help.  One tribe of rainbow colored people.  We love the land and we understand your plight. Help the Sleepy Lizard.  Help these people not get swallowed up!

 Bastille day quotes

 

 
 To Celebrate The Bastille 2bbb had a trivia night at the Golf Club in Bright ol Bellingen. The evening was a lot of fun.    Montana and Sam came as well and made a name for themselves with Woody Allen and Katy Perry and I got to see Brenda, that was fabulous.   I have not seen her since I started radio presenting three years ago.  I haven't seen anyone in the last three years.   I ran into Brice's friend Laff and Josh Vandehayden.  I did enjoy myself and trivia is such fun.

I came home and tried to go to sleep.  It  was now getting very late.   I sat up and wrote some poetry instead. 

Insha'Allah  -- in God we all trust because you cannot defy the laws of the universe.  Doesn't matter how radical you are.  These Laws have a way of finding you and serving you with such heavy papers the strain of the weight of this is almost too much to bear!  This is called the karmic principal law of nature and the universe. You put out / you get back!

For Saturday ...
It was a day to clean up around the house and fix all of my photographs today on flickr a little bit better and look at ordering business cards for Melonpopzdropz now.  Yippee.

I have so many images to load yet still.  I do however have the terabyte in top condition and very tidy and easy to find what I am looking for.  The job has been very laborious and a little tiresome and my eyes hurt so much from doing this.  But it is worth it in the end as they are beginning to look like something now and even I can see these well and I can utilize them easily.  Well done to me I say.

THOUGHTS and WORDS

SAM 7535 - Painted sky, a photo by Images @ Melonpopzdropz on Flickr.

 SUBVERSIVENESS and SEDITION?   Thoughts are always subversive and words could always be termed seditious.

Only people who do not think are not subversive. Thinking is a crime. Jesus is crucified, Socrates is poisoned, Gautam Buddha is stoned. These people have not harmed anybody. They were the most loving, most compassionate human beings possible – but they committed a crime, and the crime’s name is thinking.

No society wants any of its members to think.
Thinking is dangerous.

The society wants robots who simply do whatever is told to them, who cannot say no – that is impossible for them. They are machines.

It is not accidental that every developed society is replacing man by machines. Machines are obedient, never subversive. Have you ever heard of any machine being a revolutionary or a rebel?
It has not happened up to now that we had to crucify a machine.

I am not a machine.

And there is no way of thinking, other than being subversive.

Upon suffering beyond suffering.......

...The Red Nation shall rise again and it shall be a blessing for a sick world.  A world filled with broken promises, selfishness and separations. A world longing for light again.

I see a time of Seven Generations when all the colors of mankind will gather under the Sacred Tree of Life and the whole Earth will become one circle again.


In that day, there will be those among the Lakota who will carry knowledge and understanding of unity among all living things and the young white ones will come to those of my people and ask for this wisdom. 

I salute the light within your eyes where the whole Universe dwells. For when you are at that center within you and I am that place within me, we shall be one."
- Crazy Horse, Oglala Sioux Chief

And so that is why we have no common sense .. we killed the good ones and kept the baddies!

Happy Birthday to you Mr Tesla..  The world has not come far!  The world is still trying to hide your stuff because they know that energy would be seen differently by so many.  If you were alive today you would be 156 years old today!

Nichola  Tesla 1856  - 1943 .. A man who was not in it for the money.  He wanted to give the world FREE ENERGY. " If we are to implement free energy in the tradition of Nicola Tesla, then we need to replicate not only his science but his humanity as well"  Sterling David Allan (Pure energy systems.com)

"Be what you be in all that you are".   ~ Angus Stone ~

I can still see the shadows falling. I can feel the people and the ancient calling. I can smell the land when I look at this. I want to know more about the art.

I came home weaving grass and painting. The weaving is on Montana's bed and the paintings are on the window sill. I think they are beautiful. They too tell a story.

Here is a few great facts about weaving grasses.  I am super interested in doing this craft and so I am  putting out there so that the right person comes my way to teach me this craft.

Most fibrework is made from coiling, twining and looping. In South Australia, the Ngarrindjeri people of the Murray River and Coorong regions never lost their basic fibre techniques despite their experiences of colonization. The coiling of rushes into baskets was then passed onto women of Goulbourn and Croker Islands through missionary activities. This technique soon spread across Arnhem Land.
In Arnhem Land, fibrework and containers is associated very closely with major Dreaming stories. Weaving baskets and bags helps define the knowledge and status of women in communities as women have to earn the right to that knowledge.

In south-eastern coastal communities, Aboriginal women's basket work has benefited from a significant amount of knowledge being sourced, collected and passed back to them. Highly regarded basket makers, women from Lake Tyers, Victoria, and the Coorang, South Australia, have demonstrated methods of collecting materials and different weaving techniques which they shared with the women of the south-eastern coast of New South Wales. Basket making for the south coastal women revives and continues a tradition of women's work.

'Corn is sacred, everything that grows is sacred,' she said.

'But I warn you, there will come a time when the sons of your sons will forget this. Then hunger and sorrow will return to the world.' She shook her head. 'It will not end until - unless - their grandchildren learn once more this lesson - the only lesson that is worth remembering: how to love and respect the Earth.' ~ Iroquois Indian legend ~

The Earth keeps us alive along with the Sun.  We must respect the earth with the utmost respect and not listen to politicians who have forked tongues and gouge this earth for everything she has! It is RAPE

Even trees fall in Love

At the Christmas holes at the Promised Land Gleniffer just up the road from where my children grew up , the trees look like they are cuddling each other. a lot of the trees are two trees growing together. Like they are joining forces against the forces of itself.
This is an interesting analogy to human relationships and to life itself.

We had many many fun times here.  I remember being pregnant with Tilly and Montana here and swimming in amongst the most perfect beauty nature can offer up!

for sunday ..
Everything out here appears to love each other so beautifully and so symbiotically it was very moving.

"Great spirits have often encountered violent opposition from weak minds."

"The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and all science. He to whom this emotion is a stranger, who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead: his eyes are closed."  Albert Einstein.

Today is the Dalai Lama's 77th Birthday and so he was born  7.7.1935.  That was a long time ago too and a time of great change in a large part of the world who had gone into a major depression.  It was effecting the planet then, the consciousness of lack.

Those who lose Dreaming are lost . . . . Australian Aboriginal proverb

"We live off the crumbs that fall off the White Australian tables and are told to be grateful." 

"We ask for land rights with tongue in cheek knowing full well that the land belonged to us in the first instance"  

Charlie Perkins

It is very beautiful that the photograph I took of Uncle Tom and Suzie at Uluru was in the newspaper this week during NAIDOC week.  Naidoc is a celebration of Indigenous culture in Australia.  I think we need to change a lot of things and I want to work with more indigenous to effect good change to never ever lose the dreaming totally.  This is the most paramount .. there is nothing more important in this country.

When our government and politicians understand this the country will finally be on track.  The housing they put ppl in at Uluru was outrageous and this country should be ashamed.

Going to Uluru was the most amazing place to visit and it will impact me what happened for the rest of my life and I am different because of this.  Now I understand my white skin and my indigenous heart.  I understand we are all brothers and sisters and we are all just here now.  That is not going to change.  I cannot understand why we are not holding up the black man of this country to the highest esteem.  Why would any one sensible want to breed out such original and beautiful people from the planet escapes me and I get very very sad.

One of the hardest decisions you'll ever face in life is choosing whether to walk away or try harder!

Sitting by the fire at the beach and watching the waves and hearing the rhythmic crashing that occurs with each wave as it rolls in to shore towards me, reminding me that this is life and it is very real.

My little life is so harsh and I have no idea what to do in my own strength in this situation.  I take the guidance of others in this matter very seriously.  I am unable to make great emotional decisions because I lack the emotional where with all this takes to understand family.  I just don't know how.

Cranky Old Man

A poetic take on the golden rule of life and doing unto others.

Lots of Old men come here to fish

Cranky Old Man

What do you see nurses?....
        What do you see?
What are you thinking . . . . . .
         when you're looking at me?
A cranky old man . . . . . .
          not very wise,
Uncertain of habit . . . . . .
          with faraway eyes?
Who dribbles his food . . . . . .
          and makes no reply.
When you say in a loud voice . . . . . .'
           I do wish you'd try!'
Who seems not to notice . . . . . .
           the things that you do.
And forever is losing . . . . . .
           A sock or shoe?
Who, resisting or not . . . . . .
           lets you do as you will,
With bathing and feeding . . . . . .
           The long day to fill?
Is that what you're thinking? . . . . . .
            Is that what you see?
Then open your eyes, nurse . . . . .
            you're not looking at me.
I'll tell you who I am . . . . . .
            As I sit here so still,
As I do at your bidding . . . . . .
            as I eat at your will.
I'm a small child of Ten . . . . . .
             with a father and mother,
Brothers and sisters . . . . . .
             who love one another
A young boy of Sixteen . . . . . .
               with wings on his feet
Dreaming that soon now . . . . . .
               a lover he'll meet.
A groom soon at Twenty . . . . . .
                my heart gives a leap.
Remembering, the vows . . . . . .
                that I promised to keep.
At Twenty-Five, now . . . . .
               .I have young of my own.
Who need me to guide . . . . . .
                And a secure happy home.
A man of Thirty . . . . . .
                My young now grown fast,
Bound to each other . . . . . .
                With ties that should last.
At Forty, my young sons . . . . . .
                 have grown and are gone,
But my woman is beside me . . . . . .
                 to see I don't mourn.
At Fifty, once more . . . . . .
                 Babies play 'round my knee,
Again, we know children . . . . . .
                  My loved one and me.
Dark days are upon me . . . . . .
                  My wife is now dead.
I look at the future . . . . . .
                  I shudder with dread.
For my young are all rearing . . . . . .
                   young of their own.
And I think of the years . . . . . .
                  And the love that I've known.
I'm now an old man . . . . . .
                  and nature is cruel.
It's jest to make old age . . . . . .
                   look like a fool.
The body, it crumbles . . . . . .
                   grace and vigor, depart.
There is now a stone . . . . .
                   where I once had a heart.
But inside this old carcass . . . . . .
                  A young man still dwells,
And now and again . . . . . .
                 my battered heart swells
I remember the joys . . . . .
                 .I remember the pain.
And I'm loving and living . . . . . .
                  life over again.
I think of the years, all too few . . . . . .
                  gone too fast.
And accept the stark fact . . . . . .
                  that nothing can last.
So open your eyes, people . . . . . .
                  open and see.
Not a cranky old man . . . . . .
                   Look closer . . . . . .see . . . . . .ME!!

This poem has been traveling around the internet and is reported to have come from an unknown geriatric patient in so many towns now as reported below.   I think the world is in a poor state if there are that many sad old men in that many towns.  It is a poem to teach humility!  Humble yourself today. Take notice of people when they are alive and well and able to talk and communicate. 

Don't wait until they are dead.  When a person is dead there is no more communication on this level.  So many I have known have taken their own lives.  I cry for the ones who do this, it is a silent and final plea to be really heard.
All of the beautiful spiritual people around and still they were not a solution to the madness that overcomes those who are damaged and sad.  Posh ladies colleges, boarding schools in the country,  Private expensive elite education.  So  growing the hair into dreads isn't going to eliminate from where you emanate.  Its the black heart of society that you will never become fair no matter how many feathers in your hair or the length of  faerie dresses you wear.

[When an old man died in the geriatric ward of a nursing home in an Australian country town, it was believed that he had nothing left of any value. Later, when the nurses were going through his meager possessions, they found this poem.

Its quality and content so impressed the staff that copies were made and distributed to every nurse in the hospital. One nurse took her copy to Melbourne. The old man's sole bequest to posterity has since appeared in the Christmas editions of magazines around the country and appearing in mags for Mental Health.

A slide presentation has also been made based on his simple, but eloquent, poem. And this old man, with nothing left to give to the world, is now the author of this 'anonymous' poem winging across the Internet.]
