Hi All. It has been a while since I posted here. I would like to wish everyone a very (insert your choice) at this time of year. Dianne and I have been well. We have also been very busy. Business is good.
I still come by occasionally and check out the BB. Seems like there are some new faces and names, and of course, some of the old ones are still involved. I hope you all have been well. I see that there are some new babies, now born and soon to be born. Congratulations!!!
I also note that there are some of the old discussions still being hashed out... Oh-well, it is part of the human condition. Dialogue is good if it can be done in a loving manner. How else can we learn?
The times, they are a changing. I see it all around me. Time is quickening....it seems I get up in the morning and before you know it, it is time for bed. What happened to my day? But then it seems that I can make an hour last all day. Confusing at best. I see people changing the way they think....sometimes is in the middle of a thought. It is an amazing experience.
New children are bieng born on this planet. Very spacial children. I had the privilege recently of meeting one. His name is Ocean. He is three years old. His parents are very enlightened biengs. It was like talking to a wise adult. Very articulate. His energy was tremendous...it buzzed thru me when I gave him a hug. It lasted for a couple of days. It is said that in the end times that we will all be taught by the children. Well, I came away from that experience with a whole new understanding of why I chose to be here now.
I see that dis-ease has affected many of you. We are out of balance as a society. If we could just see that we create that dis-ease, then we can take responsibility for it and move that energy into a state of well-ness. It is my prayer for all of humanity to come back into alignment and balance.
I also see a great rift happening among humanity. It is a division of thinking. One person is no more enlightened than another...it is an illusion of separation. We are not separate. We are all one. It is also my prayer that we can come to that understanding.
So....I hope you all have a great 2005. It is going to be a year of change. Some amazing things are going to happen. It may seem like the sky is falling...fear not. It is time for us all to raise our consciousness. So hold on and enjoy the ride!!!
Love and Light....
Jackson and Dianne

Jackson, Have you read a book titled "A Course In Miracles"? If you can find it check it out. It was written in the mid to late 70's; I think.
I've come to recognize the dis-ease as FEAR. Fear of rejection Fear of exposure Fear of being real
Fear drives out Love first, and makes it impossible to be compassionate. When we are not compassionate with one another, we are not the complete beings we are designed to be. We are not whole. or well.
I believe we need to kick our egos in the butt, lay ourselves out to the world and see.
All fear comes from the ego. Recognize it and get over it.
Live!
Peace my friends.

Nice thoughts for the coming year Jackson. Best wishes to you & yours as well!!
Bill, sounds like something from Gerald Jampolsky's book "Love is letting go of Fear" also. I checked out the Course, but it was too much reading for me at that time. Looked like good info though Posted by Delzell (Member # 1965) on :

Welcome back "Mayor of the Catacombs." We're all changing, just some by choice and some by default, and we can't get time to stand still either.

Visualize whirled peas! Peace, love, dove, beads, bells, incense and hari krishna all you groovy freaks!

Thanks. A lot. Jackson. I needed that! I often feel so alone.
I don't speak about coming back into alignment and balance, but I pray for it.
I also pray for a massive awakening, as soon as at all possible, or as soon as is necessary for the greatest good.
Other than that, I just pray.
Happy New Year!

Hi everyone.
OP: Hey man! Once a hippie always a hippie! It is more a way of being than a lifestyle. the 60's were good to me...all 60 years of em! hahaha
Bill: Yes I am familiar with a Course in Miracles. And you are right about fear...it the opposite of Love. It is a lack of love of self. If we could look into our eyes in the mirror and say "I love you. I like being with you, you have the right to just be" then perhaps we can all start to heal. Alas, that is real tough for most folks.
Doug: Aloha. It is nice to hear from some old freinds again. It has been way to long. My new years resolution is to stay in touch more. I have been out of the loop too long.
Debbie: Yes, I have that saved. I send it along often. People say that it came at just the right time...they needed that. Imagine that, eh? Here is another one for you: http://www.tut.com/ Check it out. It comes in your e-mail every morning. Great way to start your day. Thoughts from the Universe.
Cisco: Hola mi amigo. Long time eh? I was just telling a freinf the other day about you. We were in the store below the Elwha Theater. I said "look up there...that is where Cisco's foot was dangling thru the ceiling" hahaha The patch is still there. Man, that was fun, eh? We are opening some of the new places now. The Underground tours are open now and very popular. You will have to come up and see them. In fact, everyone is invited.
Rick: Hahaha...that is a title I can never live down. Oh-well. My joke is "It is not a very lofty position, but I think I can stoop to it"!! Hope your family is well.
Ricky: Hahaha I love that one. Whirled Peas!!!
Myra: You are most welcome. You know you are never alone. You always have YOU! I think it is time we started to speak out our truth...Gaia needs it now more than ever. Remember...we are all dearly loved....beyond our knowing.
IM's: Thanks to all that sent those. I see that it is new feature here. Very good!!
Barb and Steve; I am glad to still see your smiling faces here. I hope you had a good year and your health is good.
So...to all the rest of you...Have a prosperous new year and may Spirit bless you and keep you safe.
Love and Light
Jackson
