Another day passed on gives birth to night

As the light is devoured alone I fight

To remember the sun upon my face

Trapped by the moon removed from grace

To fill me with lives unstoppable breath

So I may shake the heavens and transcend death

For we have built this home upon fertile earth

Predisposed to destruction since the moments of birth

We rose against all that increased gravity

To kill what we were for what we could be

Standing our ground we segregate the land

Twisting perception transcending what’s planned

Four I and the key we are as one

Replacing my life and my need for the sun

So I may survive this desolate place

To journey back home within loves embrace

For all of those who think that the world today is a linier path of chaos, destruction and shadow I will tell you that it is just the universe returning us to our true nature. I see the heaven that is offered to me by the religions, race promoting organizations and the Hollywood celebrities who think that there words hold more weight than everyone else. I do not buy into your fantasies. Life and death are two things that you cannot manipulate, the only thing you can do is try to prolong one and shorten the other. It is a hollow attempt to control something that is out of control. Life is not something that is given to us it is something that we connect to, it binds us all to each other. Most fail to realize how useless it is to try to build an empire so the world will take notice. Everyone wants to be famous, to have money, to never work again, whatever the reason to strive for success is a complete lie. Why do you believe you must accomplish x, y and z to have what you need or want?

I have read a few times and heard it in a few movies that “The human race is a disease”. At first I did not understand until I internalized it. We are an existence in the human body, our actions are the disease. We consume, destroy, alter, embed and multiply in virtually the same way as any disease and virus in our present day. The original action that has lead us to where we are was Selfishness. “I need to take care of myself first” is either a though or a statement that begins the end. Selfishness is why we don’t help the guy sitting on the corner begging for money; it is also why that same guy does not want to work and wants you to support that. It is why we are indifferent to others beliefs, values and ideas.

When was the last time you saw a large population come together to better each other with no expectations of repayment? After a Natural Disaster? After an Act of Terrorism? Why can we do it after the fact and not before? It is because we are separated and no one is emotionally connected until it is too late. That is why you have so many organizations spanning the globe to all do the same thing and still nothing is resolved. Wouldn’t it be nice when you are hungry you could just eat instead of trying to balance your budget and figure out how much food you can actually get while still being able to pay the rest of your bills. Why can we not live in a house without worrying about what the housing market is doing and what my home is worth? Why can we not get medical attention without the population being adversely effected? I don’t know why it is so hard for people to give freely of themselves, I do and I put myself in worse conditions for it, still I do it. I would rather let another eat while I go hungry. I would rather let another prosper while I live in substandard conditions. And why is that? It is because I know that what we do here has no bearing on true life. I see us as connected and I know the truth so why should you suffer. If I can raise you up than it is done.

I laugh because people think they live a life. They work more hours than not, have their children taught and raised by Schools, Day Care, TV and Video Games. Their marriage is a joint agreement and when they feel that agreement is not reached they terminate it. And when it is terminated then a battle for possessions begins. That is not life, and how often does it happen? I sacrifice myself for my family; I have done it many of times. I have waged war in their names. I have broken my body to provide for them and I will defend them with my life. And when I no longer breathe I will surround them, because we do not live by an agreement we live by a bond of the spirit. That is why we are still together; we do not fight over money or possessions because none of it changes our life together. We would be the same with or without. That is life, that is love, that is peace and that is why we are still together.

I do not just sacrifice myself for my family but for all life. I am not concerned for my safety or well being because I know I will be provided for. I am not helpless I am empowered, I have made a difference and I do not seek any reward or recognition. You are enough for me to keep going. And if you are changed by the actions of another you become obligated to return the favor to another not to look in pity or disgust. If you have the power to make the difference for someone why would you not?

We are called the richest and most powerful country and still less than 1% fight for it, less than that gives freely. The lesson will be learned, for some it will be hard and for some it will kill them but it will be learned none the less. I hope it comes easier for you. I am by no means perfect. I have shadows that I fight. But we as a people should make the change and stand together for our common good, Indifferent to race, religion and beliefs for our bodies are of the earth and that is where it returns.

I read now that you have found a voice, well I have one too and here is mine.

The issue is not with your religion it is not even with you. It is with the radicals that kill in the name of your religion. It is will the apparent complete disregard for the feelings of each person that still harbors the pain from that day. It is about the location you have chosen. If you are true in your attentions and do want to live in harmony then move the location. On top of all the crap that has been going on in the past 9 years, have enough foresight to see that it will not end well for anyone. That it will only fuel the already raging tension between our cultures. If you see no problem then let’s looks at other tasteless locations for buildings…

1. 1. Let’s put a Military installation across from the Mosque of the Prophet in Mecca
2. 2. Or build a Christian church near the Green Dome in Medina
3. 3. How about a LDS church next to The Dome of the Rock in Jerusalem
4. 4. Why not build a Timothy James McVeigh Chemistry Lab across from the Oklahoma City National Memorial.
5. 5. How about a Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto naval academy in front of Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam
6. 6. Or maybe a James Earl Ray school of sharpshooting just in view of the 2^nd floor balcony of room 306 at the Lorraine Motel in Memphis.
7. 7. You want a great place to put an Islamic Building how about in front of the Malcolm X and Dr. Betty Shabazz Memorial and Educational Center. Shit and that is Upper Manhattan not that far away.

If these locations were to ever think about building anything like that the implications alone would create a tremendous uproar, Especially if it was in Muslim areas. The Islamic culture would go on the offensive and scream about the disrespect and injustice that is being proposed. But when it is the Islamic culture to propose a plan in an inappropriate location suddenly it is disrespectful and an injustice to oppose. This has nothing to do with religion or culture, it has everything to do with complete disrespect. But the was that our laws are written it gives us nothing to stand on. If we are to rise up in defiance and defend our holy land we are viewed as wrong, disrespectful and intolerant Americans.

I heard that if it was known how effected the population would have been another location would have been chosen. The objections are loud and nothing is done. I also have been told that if we do not let it be done then there will be consequences. Let it be so and it will show the true nature of all our intentions.

I hear talks of tolerance no one tolerates disrespect. Instead why not talk about compassion, it works better for everyone.

Please Read Till the End, It will not take long.

This is not any other “Help me help you”. This is a “Help Us Help Us”. We hold the power to heal the deepest wounds. We hold the power to grant a second chance at life for human and canine alike. Please assist me in making a change in countless lives.

My Goal is to raise enough money to complete the training and certifications I need to retrain bruised, battered and damaged dogs so they can be reintroduced back into society as a family pet or Therapy Dog. There are animals all over the country that have either gotten dealt a bad hand or turn up wandering around with nowhere to go. They do not disserve to rot away in some cage while being passed over for a new life. Animals tend to be sheltered indefinitely and adoption services are limited. My goal is to either completely change that reality or at least give most of the animals a more desirable set of abilities.

As on TV people ask to send money to some country to help some family living in some shack. What do most people do? They send money while we step-over people in this country, we turn a blind eye to the damage that is done here. We don’t have to, we can help each other, and we can all heal together.

My story, so you know who I am, is that I am in the United States ARMY. I was wounded in Afghanistan in September 25, 2009. I suffered a Spinal Cord Injury and Traumatic Brain Injury and was in need of a lot of help from everyone around me. My family was my greatest support and strength. My wife of almost 10 years and my 3 children gave me the desire and drive to get my physical abilities and brain function back. I had to fight the injuries that were visible along with the ones that came secondary to the Brain Injury.

Today I know I was given a second chance and after my family moved back to Florida, I gave a second chance to a 2.5 year old Australian Cattle Dog/Mix named Molly. Today Molly and I work to better each other, she helps me get up and move around even when I think I cannot. For her, I taught her that not everyone wants to hurt her.

Within the first few hours after adopting her from The Humane Society I knew there was something wrong. I thought she was just shell shocked being in there, the reality was that she was beaten and was suffered serious damage to her hip. I know what is like to be damaged and broken so it was up to me to help her heal. We truly have saved each other and I want to give that to others.
