WHILE WE WAIT

Know that the raising of our consciousness is a done deal. We can't go back to the old way. We can only experience the transition as smooth or not so smooth. We need to see the truth, of the extent of the corruption, yet we can't dwell on it. Dwelling on how awful the world has become, makes us angry and/or helpless, two emotions that give power to the dark, who rule with fear.

Our power in immense! It comes from loving ourselves and each other. It is a force that cannot be stopped. In the very near future, things will come to light that will shock the most cynical of us. It is a sign that the cabal is experiencing their last gasps. Our form of capitalism has allowed corporate rule. Chemical companies, medical companies, agriculture, food producers and processors, mining companies, oil companies, big banks etc. are beholden to no one. They have controlled government, at all levels, for many years. Their only interest has been making money. They don't care if they poison us or our beautiful Earth in the process. We can't deny this.

Yet, we have learned, to focus on the negative, is only to give it power and extend its life. It is a balancing act; but we are being successful. We are pouring love unto the world and each other. We are appreciating each other more and more. We have been resisting the cabal's attempts to isolate us, from each other. We are magnificent humans first, our labels only enrich us and make us more interesting, we refuse to believe one label is better than another. As we {humanity} comes together with great love, the dark {cabal} is forced into a corner and exposed for what they are.

While we wait, look for the love in everything. It is easy to see. Nature has been unfolding splendidly, here, on Laughing Water Farm. The lilacs and apple blossoms are ............ well I am not poet enough to describe them, they are incredibly beautiful and in the evening the scent in the yard is, what....... voluptuous. The daffodils and tulips are still dazzling despite the late date.

Naomi was sitting by a window a couple days ago, when two hummingbirds dove at the window and caught their little beaks in the screen. They extricated themselves without incident and are okay. Were they attacking their reflection in the window? Could they see a reflection through the screen? I was delighted to see that the orioles are back. They have been building a nest in a mature elm tree, in our back yard, for many years. But the last couple years I did not see them, so I was happy to see they're back. The swallows have taken up their residence in the chicken coop and are setting on their first batch of eggs. The ants haven't found their way into the house yet; but the June bugs are coming in some how. Every Morning, I see a few of them. They must fly in when we open the door. 

It is getting late, I have yet to do the dishes and I want to plant some things in the vegetable garden. It is an absolutely glorious day. A perfect day for working outside. Jamie has been outside pulling quack grass out of the flower beds for the last couple hours. Happy Friday.

Love and Peace,  Gregg

BEING

The mainstream media continues reporting on a crazy world of violence and strife. After giving you a picture of how dangerous and hopeless the world's situation is, they throw in a puppy dog story for dessert; some little bit of fluff, to leave you in a good mood, to buy the advertised products. It is a formula that has been used for the last thirty years or so. Nothing really changes in the MSM.

Yet, we feel a change. We know things are happening. And happening big time. We feel in our bones that great changes could happen in a blink of an eye. What should we do? How can we help bring about what is to come? Some of us might feel we should be doing more. We may feel inadequate to do what we think needs to done.

The greatest contribution you can make to the world's welfare is to be yourself. Your real self; free of the borrowed negativity, that may still cling to you. Look at yourself lovingly. Release yourself from any negativity you see. Be, just Be. Useful doing will come. You will know what do do. By loving yourself, you become a fountain of love for others. We discover that giving is what makes us happy. Give, what you have to give: a smile, a kind word, a hearty laugh, an appreciative chuckle, companionship, friendship, etc. Sure money and material goods can be gifts, too, if they are from the heart. We understand what we need to do. Be our marvelous loving selves; we will uplift the world.

When we look at the old world, all we see is the pain and suffering. We may think we can be helpful by 'attacking' the problems. But 'attacking' is the problem. It is the way the old world has done everything; by attacking and fighting; a war on drugs, a war on poverty, a war on crime. War only begets war, strife begets strife, anger begets anger. HEY- WE DON'T WANT TO DO THAT ANYMORE.

Let's forget the past. Let's stop time. Let's be in this moment. Let's be happy. Let us marinate in the love of the universe. We will do, appropriately. We will see what is to be done. Let us concentrate on discovering what beautiful loving beings we are.

The Sun came out. It has been a stranger. I am going to stroll outside and feel its warmth and see if there are any bees on  the apple blossoms.

Love and Peace,  Gregg

MEMORIAL DAY

Every Memorial Day, a group from one of the Veterans Clubs, performs a ceremony, in the Church cemetery, across the road from us. I, usually, don't think about it until I hear the gun salute and then taps playing. I, always, enjoy hearing taps.

This Morning, I was sitting out in the sheep pasture meditating. I heard voices and I remembered the ceremony. I heard some singing, then the fusillade, accompanied by the usual barked orders, and then the soothing tones of the taps. I enjoy the ceremony and I like ritual, but I have had mixed feelings about Memorial Day celebrations for several years. There must have always been the specter, of glorifying war, haunting these holidays. Is it worse? In recent years, it has troubled me more.

When I was a child, I remember going to a large cemetery, with members of the extended family. We had a picnic and visited the graves of family members. Hawkinses, Burkards, Warrens, I don't know that part; I just remember it was a picnic and a joyous time.

Well war will be thing of the past soon; meanwhile, things are growing apace here on Laughing Water Farm. The apple trees are in full bloom now and unbelievably beautiful. There doesn't seem to be the number of pollinators buzzing around the trees, as there usually is. Part of the reason is that it has been either cloudy or chilly; not good bee weather. I hope we are not suffering from the paucity of bees and other pollinators due to the use of chemicals. I suppose we can't escape the problem here, as it appears to be nation wide.

I haven't mowed the lawn yet and it is getting long, long, long. Most days it has been wet and the few dry days I have been busy with other things. We are way behind in our gardening, We need some warm dry weather and a spurt of energy to go with it.

We have two new baby goats, both males. We, may be, phasing out of goats, for milking, as we are getting cows milk from the Amish. We need to keep some animals on the pasture, though, or it will turn into forest. Perhaps, more sheep. I would like to try hair sheep. We don't get a decent price for the wool. It cost more to shear the sheep than the wool is worth; of course, that could change in the blink of an eye.

 Have a wonderful Memorial Day! Celebrate Peace and Love and the end of all war.

WAKING UP

We are waking up, both to the painful world we have made, and the fact that there is much more to reality, than what our five senses have been telling us.

We have locked ourselves into believing, reality is what our five senses tells us. We, therefore, limit ourselves to our physical and ego interpretation of reality. We have never, really accepted this limitation, however, our literature and art forms, of all kinds, point to a greater reality. All through our history, Masters were born, who directed us to a greater reality. They encouraged us to go inside and experience the peace and love therein. They taught us that we are one spirit manifesting different expressions. No matter how different we appear, we are one. 

Now science is discovering what spiritual seekers have always known. Everything is energy. Everything is in motion. The energy takes different forms but derives from the same source. When we define that energy as love, we see completely differently.

Meanwhile, if we are seeing through our ego's eyes, we see the pain and suffering we have made. It is a tired old world made of fear; rife with violence, inequality, exploitation and illness. We are discovering that we don't have to look at that world. We can choose to see only love. We are discovering we are in charge of our perception.

I came across a phrase in my reading, "all good is coming to you". It is an appropriate mindset for us to adopt. Since we are creating this world with our minds, lets have a belief that helps. We are realizing that worrying, fretting, anxiousness, whatever you call it, has no value.

We are finding out who we are. We are discovering we are part of Source. Our Source is unconditional love; then, we are unconditional love. Regardless, of the ego structured personalities we may have developed, at the core we are love and we yearn for that recognition. Like iron filings to a magnet, we are drawn to "oneness".

The painful illusion can only be maintained with fear. To defeat this mechanism, we can practice being in the Now. The ego needs the past, and the anticipation of the future, to operate; it can't exist now. As we give up, all thoughts of the past, we become aware of the love and peace in the present. The future is, then, an extension of the present. It is possible to live forever in the present [eternity anyone] and we discover the illusion of time.

I was intrigued by a line in a Grateful Dead song, "gone are the days we stopped to decide, we just go". I am beginning to have a deeper appreciation  of it.

Love and Peace,  Gregg

NO BLOG

Jamie and I are celebrating our 40th Wedding anniversary today. We are going over to St Cloud. We will rummage through a few shops and find a good restaurant for a celebratory meal.

I will be here Friday.

KEEP ON TRUCKIN'

The apple blossoms are about to burst open. We received two and one half inches of rain in the last few days and the plant growth is phenomenal. Spring is rushing forward into Summer.

The consciousness of mankind is rushing forward, also. War is no longer a choice of most people and soon it will be unthinkable. Poverty and exploitation has not been supported by the people in some time. It has continued, because of the will, of an extremely small number of people, and the feeling of the rest of us, that we couldn't do anything about it.

We are beginning to wake up and realize the power of our will. We are just beginning to know the power of our intent. The power of our minds, linked together in a common intention, can do anything. We can and will end poverty and exploitation and we will be amazed at how simple it can be.

Most of us have known, all along, that all we needed was love to create paradise, here, on Earth. Many of us could see it. For a long time our visions remained isolated. We felt, as individuals, we were the only ones. Something kept us separated. Now our minds are coming together. We are beginning to bring paradise forward.

When I was rummaging through my truck, cleaning it out to take to the garage, I discovered a cassette tape. No writing on it. I plugged it in. It was, "Blues For Allah" by the Grateful Dead. I was blown away. I haven't listened to it for a long time. On side two was: "Imagine" by John Lennon, another amazing album. Both of these albums have songs that bring paradise to mind.

Then I remembered all the other artist that sang songs of paradise or the search for paradise, in the Sixties and Seventies. The Beatles, The Grateful Dead, Crosby, Stills and Nash [Young] and I know there were many more and we all had our favorites.

The World Created By Love has been deeply in our consciousness for a long, long time. It is seen in our literature, both ancient and modern. It has burst through in our music and songs. We know that love is the only ingredient needed to transform this world to paradise.

Hold on to your vision of paradise. Don't lose faith. Focus on the love you see. We will get through this together. Just "keep truckin' " as the song advises.

Love and Peace,  Gregg

FURTHER ADVENTURES ON PLANET EARTH

Well Spring/Summer has arrived! Our tulips are finally in bloom. Cherry blossoms and plum blossoms are out and the bees are busy. We have a native cherry, alongside our driveway, that is buzzing when you go by. We have a Nanking Cherry, in the yard, which is blooming more than it ever has. Maybe this is the year we will get a couple cherries, before the birds do. The apple trees are a week[?] away from blooming.

I noticed the trillium are beginning to bloom in the woods and the wet lands are golden with marsh marigolds. The usual earlier flowers; bloodroot, anemone, etc. are just beginning. Generally, they bloom before the trillium. Of course, this is Minnesota, where words like generally and usual are, also, highly arguable.

We are busy trying to catch up. Because of the late Spring we haven't got our garden planted yet. We got our goat barn cleaned out and, the manure enriched bedding, spread on the garden. We may not have much of a garden this year. Jamie  strained a ligament in her right wrist, any twisting motion hurts. She is aided by a brace, but it won't heal, if she doesn't rest it. Because of her wrist and my terminal laziness, we might have to take a garden vacation. We will get a few things planted.

A couple months ago, we envisioned, traveling a bit. We thought we would be, far enough along with the Spring chores, that we could take a weekend trip. We have wanted to explore Southeastern Minnesota and Eastern Iowa; we were going to combine this trip with the celebration of a nephew's graduation. We will have to postpone our trip until things settle down somewhat.

I invested over $900 in repairing my old truck, a 1992 Ford Ranger. I am fortunate that I can do it. There was a collection of relatively minor things that need correction; but serious enough that I was not comfortable driving it. If I didn't have the money to repair it, and I needed the truck, I would have been forced to replace it. Does that make sense? It is easier to sign on the dotted line and commit yourself to $300 or so, a month, for three to seven years, than come up with $900. The poor of this country are condemned to eternal indebtedness, unless they are exceptional.

Talking about finance; the gas prices, here, shot up over $4 gallon. The excuse is two refineries shut down for maintenance. Wait a minute! Is this anticipatory supply and demand? Has supply and demand kicked in yet?

What if the price increase, legitimately, met the criteria for supply and demand. Have you ever questioned  that concept? Something suddenly has more value because it is scarcer? What sense does that make? How can scarcity change intrinsic value? What kind of a savage world would price things according to what they could get for them? A loaf of bread will keep my body going for a period of time, a gallon of gas will help propel my car for a predictable number of miles, everybody needs to make a decent wage. Those, implied parameters, are the only reason I can see for raising prices. One might argue differently for luxury goods; but for life's essentials, greed has no place.

I have been in a little bit of a funk lately. Do I sound like it? Actually, I am coming out of it. I have been letting little things, of no consequence, affect me. Things from the past, things from now; nothing important. I kept getting depressed, like a cloud was hanging over me. I would get out of it, but when I wasn't paying attention it would return. I realized I was abandoning the trust I have in a Loving Universe. My belief, that everything is Love, acts as a shield and protects me from negativity. When I am aware of my oneness with everything, there is no room for any thoughts that are not love. I am not saying I experience that oneness often; but just, knowing it is there, keeps me on an even keel. For some reason I have been turning my face and looking into littleness; paying attention to the ego concerns. I guess one needs to do it, until they accept, the complete futility of it.

Have a great weekend!

Love and Peace, Gregg

DO YOU HAVE TO BE RIGHT?

I was brought up in a family of 'know it alls'. There was continuous intellectual competition. I learned the pattern and have, myself, been seen as a 'know it all'. The trouble with being a successful 'know it all' is that you have to hang out with exceptionally tolerant people. I learned, many years ago, not to act that way, but I carry the pattern and can slip into it.

The trouble with being 'right', is that you can't look, at a new way of seeing things, without giving up something. Our egos love their boundaries; they invest a lot of energy in the intellectual status quo. As individuals and as a group we have created boundaries that limit our knowledge and dictate the limits of our inquiries. 

We are at a pivotal point in our evolution. It is time to question everything we think we know. A beginning point is to accept the fact, that we know nothing for sure. Our knowledge about history is based on, the self serving, group egos, of the countries, involved. As someone said, "History is written by the victor". But in every field of intellectual endeavor, including the hard sciences, knowledge is limited by the ego. No matter how sharp the tool of scientific method is, a man, with an ego, wields it. And, then interprets the data. Few, have any idea, how powerful the group ego is. There is no settled science.

Everything about, who we are, is about to be challenged. Our ideas about history, anthropology, religion, archeology, geology, mineralogy, sociology, psychology, physics, chemistry, and the list is endless, are now open to question. This is an exciting time for those, who have not allowed their thought patterns to crystallize. To see everything with a fresh mind and wide open eyes; wow, that is great.

But it is not great for those who have made up their minds about everything. It is confusing and painful. Having your cherished beliefs, ripped from you, is not comfortable. It is ultimately freeing, but not comfortable at the time.

Is hard to believe that you might not know anything? That what you have been taught is limitation? That knowledge, as we know it, has been corrupted by the ego? Can you imagine looking at the world without preconceived ideas?

The ego is a master at order and formulation, but its boundaries are made of cement and reinforced steel. Accepting, what the ego sees, is accepting limitation. Give up what you think you know. Open your eyes, let the universe in.

Love and Peace,  Gregg

WEATHER

Saturday, we had snow flurries. It was cool yesterday and still is today. It is warming up, it is 58F now. It is forecast to be 85F tomorrow. Will it be cold again in a week? That has been the pattern; instant Summer, that lasts one week, and then we return to Winter/Spring. We have had no real Spring and I think it is too late to expect it now. We will probably move right into Summer.

It has been predicted, that as the light increases, people will experience emotional flareups, that indicate attachments to the illusion. Typically, they are negative attachments that were caused by events that still need forgiveness. Be wary of resentments, jealousies, irritations, any negative [especially nagging] feelings. If you can see their origin; forgive. Often, it is difficult to see the origin of the feeling; don't waste time on it. Look at the feeling; name it; release it. It is a piece of the past. It no longer exist.

We have entered the New Age. Yet, it doesn't seem like it. Everyday, I confront feelings from the past, that rise up and engulf me. A large part of me is still invested in a past that no longer exist. How strange, to have unhappy feelings, that have no reality in our present condition. I have confidence that this period will not last. The ego doesn't want to give up the little boundaries it has made for itself. The ego is comfortable in the Old World. It is terrified of the New World. It has learned power and control in the Old World; these don't work in the New World. The New World is love and to navigate it, means to trust. The more trust you have, the greater love you will feel. This is a really scary concept for the ego.

We are all growing. We might not know it. Old attitudes are changing. They are changing very fast. We are moving in a more loving direction on all fronts. Consider the change in attitudes about gay marriage. How did you feel about it ten years ago? Twenty years ago? People are waking up, about how their feelings and attitudes have been shaped by those exploiting us. They are suddenly asking, "Is that how I really feel". People are tired of being manipulated by fear. Fear that they are not good enough, not smart enough, not rich enough, not worthy enough, not cute enough, not sexy enough, not thin enough, not.......something........ enough. If you are not afraid of something, people, who want your money, will try to inculcate the need/fear in you and give you the cure, so they can make more money. Folks are seeing through this craziness. It is coming to a halt.

Information, long withheld or not stressed, is leaking through to the mainstream media. Information about how we treated our neighbors, especially Mexico during our manifest destiny craze, is being spotlighted. The CBS Sunday Morning show had a segment on the Mexican War, fomented during the Polk administration. It was a bloodbath, thousands of innocent Mexican civilians were killed because a handful of Americans coveted their land. This is just a simple example, our history is replete with such. We are not to dwell on how awful we have been. We can't do anything about it, now. We can just love, now. I bring this up, so that you will understand that you have been lied to constantly about what your government was and is. We have pretended to be a democracy, but the people's attitudes and opinions, of virtually everything, has been so manipulated, that democracy has been impossible. We have been made virtual slaves by the opinion shapers. We gave up our sovereignty and followed each other like sheep. All because we listened to some form of fear.

Pay attention to how much 'new' information is presented in the main stream media, information about health, medicine, education, politics etc. If you examine the information, you will note that it is not new, but it is just coming to light. There is great pressure on the media, to free itself from its controllers and start publishing the news. It is only a tiny beginning; hopefully, it will be a flood soon.

As we learn to live in the present, we will discover how much love and peace exist. There is no fear in the present. Fear is only about the future. If we stay in the present, we cannot be manipulated. Love is pouring down on the planet. Be open to it and bask in the love.

Love and Peace,  Gregg

LIFE CAN BE INTERESTING

I have learned not to have expectations. I would like to accept life the way it comes to me. I am getting better and better at it. We, recently, had one unexpected event. Jamie's Mom, who was 94, died in January. At one time, the family had a moderate amount of money, but Mary [her Mom] had been in assisted living for some years and in a nursing home for five years. Jamie did not expect any inheritance. Last week, we were surprised to receive, enough money, to make a few alterations to our life style. We have often wished we could add on, a small addition, for a downstairs bathroom, laundry, and den. It looks like this is feasible, we had the builders over this morning for an estimate.

Life has its little twist. Are objects really inanimate? Can cars have feelings? Or do we just ascribe feelings to them? I have wondered about this. I recently bought a new van, new to me, a 2007 model. I decided to give my old van to Naomi. Her vehicle has given her mild problems from the day she bought it. On the other hand, one cannot say that it hasn't given good service. Most of the problems have been with tires, even though, the seemingly excellent tires, were a point in the cars favor when she bought it. 

On the way to school this morning she had a blowout [in a tire that was replaced two weeks ago]. She called, I went to pick her up and take her to school. The first thing she said was, "I think my car might be angry because I am giving up on it". Interesting, because I had the same thought, go through my mind, while I was driving over there. The last time I drove my old van [the one I am giving to Naomi], I felt such sadness. I was sad, because I loved the car, and it was a faithful servant for seven years. Could the car be sad, too?

Some people say, you shouldn't have expectations, then you won't be disappointed. I think we can't help but have expectations, but we should leave them unformed. Do not crystallize them. None of us have the wisdom to know what we really want. We know we want what is best for us. We know we want love. Keep your expectations loose; expect what is best for you; expect all is love now, and it will be, in your future.

Naomi's car has been towed to the garage, the tire has been replaced; I need to fetch it. It has been a busy, but beautiful morning filled with love. These little events, that some people can see as negative, can also be seen, as rich and rewarding.

Love and Peace,  Gregg

BUSY

When spring is late, it seems that suddenly you have much to do, that could have been spread out over a couple weeks. That is the way it has been here, on Laughing Water Farm. Paradoxically, the activities that have occupied me, are not necessarily related to Spring. Spring activities, such as getting the garden beds cleaned out, the vegetable garden planted, the sticks picked up in the lawn, so I can mow, are still waiting. Yes, despite the Spring, which would never get here, the lawn has grown just fine and will need mowing very soon.

Its like a gate opened and all kinds of options for doing things came through. Well it is nice to be busy; just so grandpa can get his nap. On Monday Elijah went to the dentist and his mom and dad bought him a new bike, one with training wheels appropriate for a five year old.

Elijah decided the tires needed more air in them. Yesterday, after doing a whole slew of things, I told Elijah, I would pump up the tires on his bike as soon as I had a little nap. He wanted to know, how long I would lay down and I told him about twenty minutes or so. I wasn't laying down five minutes when he asked me, how long I had been laying down. After a few more interruptions, he asked me, "how long has it been now?"I said, "I don't know". He then picked up a clock and put it front of my eyes and wondered if that would help me figure it out.

Well, I learned something. Do that thing, you promised your grandson, before you take your nap.

As the news, according to the main stream media, gets worse and worse; especially with their emphasis on {so called?} terror and their unrelenting fomentation of war, the news from other sources looks quite hopeful. People are refusing to settle for the usual crap, the big banks, corporations, and governments are handing out. People are refusing to accept austerity programs, which are thinly disguised ways to blame the people for the mistakes of errant governments and corrupt banks.

There is demonstration, planned for May 25th, world wide in dimension, against Monsanto for the continuous crimes of poisoning the Earth and its people. This is just the tip of the iceberg; the People of the Earth have had enough. They are demanding that these criminal activities, all for the purpose of making money, cease.

There is a powerful energy sweeping the Earth. When the change is demanded out of love for the Earth and its people, it will not fail.

There is no question about it, the New World is emerging.

Love and Peace,  Gregg

MAN AND BEAST

Good Morning! Spring is coming back after another week of yech [30s 40sF and cloudy]. I think I am winning the battle with the badger[?]. Friday, I plugged the outside entrance of the tunnel, going under the chicken coop, with chicken wire and stones and packed it with soil. Saturday Morning, I discovered the creature had pulled out all the stones, pushed the chicken wire aside and there was evidence it emerged in the coop.

Well, I didn't have any cement, so I repacked the hole and we bought a sack of mixed gravel and cement ; one needs to add water. The chicken coop is over a hundred years old. At some point, a concrete floor was added. Over the years, the crack around the perimeter has enlarged and in some places, the concrete floor has crumpled, allowing access to an exploring animal. Whether by instinct, luck, or an intelligent nose, this animal burrowed under the one spot where the concrete crumbled enough to allow him into the chicken coop. There wasn't enough time for a concrete patch to set up, when we got home Saturday.

Sunday Morning, the invading creature dug out the tunnel, scattering stones the size of baseballs. I could tell that some creature was in the coop, but no chickens were harmed. I mixed up the gravel and cement and poured it into the hole from the inside of the coop. I then plugged the tunnel from the outside with stones and soil and placed two heavy cement blocks over the area.

This morning, there was evidence that an animal was searching for a place to get in. They found a way under the floor, but not into the coop. I found a heavy stone that fit neatly into the new spot. I doubt if there will be more trouble from Mr. Badger or whoever it is.

I don't like being at war with my fellow creatures. We used to have great deal of trouble with pocket gophers, making mounds in the lawn and the garden. They would, also, feed on garden plants. We watched plants disappear as they were pulled down from below. I was quite good at trapping them. I found the only successful traps were the leg hold variety. The gopher would suffer until you whacked him on the head. I tried to use the kill traps but they didn't work very well.

One day I decided to talk to the gophers. I told them that they were free to dig up the pastures and woods, all they want. Stay out of the lawn and garden and we both will be happy. That was, at least fifteen years ago, and they haven't invaded our yard since. I know, I can't believe it either. There must be another explanation. Or can we talk to animals? I tried to talk to the mosquitoes, they wouldn't listen. 

Man has been on this planet for, what? A million years or so? We still find ourselves victimized by all kinds of crawling and flying things. Are there indigenous peoples on this Earth who are in complete harmony with all? Minnesota evenings and nights are beautiful and many times we have been able to stay out late and enjoy it. Many times, however, we have been driven, to the shelter of the house, by mosquitoes.

There has to be a loving solution to these problems. There has to be a way to live on this Earth in complete harmony with nature. Perhaps, we need to give up our battles with nature before we can see the solutions. We are one with Nature, we are one with the Earth, everything is Love. I know we can do it. I know we can experience this Earth as Paradise.


Love and Peace,  Gregg 

LIFE

It has already been a busy Morning. I took my little truck up to the garage this morning for regular service, plus I got a couple new tires. When I went to let out the chickens this morning, I noticed some creature had dug a hole under the chicken coop and up through the floor. Probably a woodchuck; if it is a badger, it is serious business. Left on repaired, I could lose several chickens, in one night. I will fill the hole, from the outside, with a piece of crumpled up chicken wire and pack in some dirt and stones. The chicken wire will discourage a woodchuck. Badgers are tough to discourage. I will have to pour some cement in the hole, from the inside, that ought to keep the critters out.

It is snowing again! I don't think it will amount to much. We missed the main thrust of this latest storm. Thank you Mother Nature. Parts of Minnesota received several inches. This has been an odd year, weatherwise. Winter doesn't want to give up.

The frost seems to be out of the ground for the most part. We had the manure, from our goat barn, spread on our garden. We hire a lad from the neighborhood for such chores. It has been a great help. With Jamie over seventy and me approaching eighty, those chores have lost their luster. Jamie will be planting potatoes this week {much later than usual}. The tomatoes have been started and will be put in the greenhouse soon. They can't be planted in the garden {safely} until after June 1st. The way this year has shaped up, it will be questionable then.

I don't have a lot to say this morning; except you have to love life and accept everything that comes to you. It is amazing how much more pleasant our experience is if we accept what comes and love everything. I know, I know; I have had those grouchy times, when everything looks awful. Then something happens that lightens my mood and everything changes. Everything is the same, yet, everything is different. All that changed was my mind. Sometimes I forget, but I do have control over my moods. Perception is ours to change.

I am eager to plug up that tunnel under my chicken coop.

Love and Peace,  Gregg

WHAT I WOULD LIKE TO SAY TO THE WORLD

I was wondering what I would write about today, when the suggestion came to me, "What would you like to say to the world". Wow, at first I rejected the idea, how could I get those thoughts together? Then, hey, why not give it a try.

We are about to enter a New World of unconditional love. Actually, what is happening, is the Old World created by fear is dropping away and The New World, which is reality, is becoming visible.

How can we aid the transition? There are many things we can do. For one, don't focus on the old world. At the present time, the media is an arm of the Old World, its purpose is to keep you under control and ignorant of what is happening. The goal, of the Cabal, was to enslave the world. They can no longer do it. Although, they have lost, they won't go quietly. Unfortunately for us, paying attention to the conflict, they engender, adds to their power. Ignore all invitations to fear. Fear is the basis for their power.

Human beings, left alone, emanate love for each other, because we are part of Source, which is unconditional love. Once the transition is over, we will realize who we are: co-creators with Source, we have the world we want.

Things to remember, now. No violence is positive, regardless of the cause. Jesus, Gandhi, Martin Luther King, Nelson Mandela and others have given us examples of how to deal with tyranny. No kind of violence works; this includes sanctions, trade restrictions and isolation, with the intention of forcing others to behave differently.  

No punishment is ever warranted for an individual or group of individuals. In and of itself, punishment never accomplishes what it supposed to. Psychologist, sociologist, anthropologist and others, of good spirit, have studied rehabilitation for at least fifty years. We know how to help people 'rehabilitate'. We, also, know we don't want to change people to fit into a hostile unloving society. As society, becomes more loving, it will be easier to help people fit in. Using techniques based on unconditional love, rehabilitation is simply a matter of helping people see their oneness with all.

The exploitation of people and the tremendous disparity in wealth will come to an end soon. There are folks working, behind the scenes, who have been preparing for the collapse of our present system for a long time. You don't know about them because the Cabal considers them as arch enemies and has attempted to eliminate them. There are many groups that have been preparing to be of service, during this time of transition; many of them have had to remain hidden or keep a very low profile. There is a system ready to redistribute wealth. Poverty, caused by lack of wealth, will end.

Making money, because you have money, will end. Everybody, for the simple reason that they exist, is entitled, and will have, opportunity to a rich fulfilling life. Money will no longer equal power.

Power, as it means control over others, will end. Individuals will realize their sovereignty and no longer look to leaders for an interpretation of reality. Leaders and teachers will exist; but, leaders will show how they are not needed and teachers will help people open doors to their own consciousness. We, all, have the truth. We, are, all unconditional love. We are, all, part of Source.

Agriculture, light manufacture [clothes, furniture, etc,] will return to the community. Everybody has a gift, something they just love to do. It could be dress making, shoe making, gardening, farming, metal working, painting [artistic and other]. We are all from Source. The plan is perfect. If everybody does what they love to do, there will be plenty for everyone.

The exploitation of the Earth, as the exploitation of people, is over. We won't be treating the Earth as something to maul and tear up, at will. We will see the Earth as a living being, as we are. She is our Mother. She is anxious to give us everything we need for our happiness. She will feed us and clothe us and entertain us. She will meet all our physical needs and desires. We don't need to alter her in any way. There is no need to dig into her or drill into her or attempt to change how she functions. We will learn a new way of living on the Earth, which is respectful. The Earth was created from Source and is unconditional love.

We will find energy sources that do not depend on exploiting the Earth. So called, 'free energy' based on discoveries in plasma physics is on the horizon.

Most people are aware that we are not the only beings populating the Universe. Many people have become aware of beings, from another source, than Earth. In some ways this is common knowledge. In other ways it remains folklore. Very, very soon, we will become aware of what has been known for a long time.

In the meantime, People of Earth, love your neighbor, love yourself. See only Love. That is all there is.

Love and Peace, Gregg
