Just sitting back for a break…
When I was just 7 years old my father came home from the plant (that was his, and then our linen supply company in Cleveland, Ohio.) I guess it must have been a rough day. So I asked him how his day was. And he "jokingly" (only I didn't know he was joking) told me to "get lost."
Well, about 2 hours later, Things sort of went sideways. Father couldn't find me anywhere in the house. So he got sort of 'frantic'. At which point he called a friend of his on the police force. They found me three blocks away at the local drug store. So father called the store and the owner put me on the phone. Father said, "what the hell are you doing?". I said, "I'm sorry Dad. I've been up here trying to find Lost. But they keep telling me they don't have any."
To which he replied, "trust me! It's a damn lucky thing you're a tax deduction! Now get back here!".
Needless to say upon returning home, father and I had one of those "Kodak" moments, with me running through the back yard yelling, "Well you told me to get lost!" And him chasing me and yelling, "Yeah, Well, next time, I'll tell ya to get me a hubcap on the freeway!"
Actually, my father, who I fondly called "the old man", and I had a great relationship. Sort of like Abbot and Costello.Welcome
... And Almitra said, '.. and please speak to us of love..'. And the prophet then said, '... love is that cup that holds the well of your life. It can only contain as much love as it has been burned with fire and the passion of that which has been your greatest pain, and sorrow. For love seeks naught but itself, and is fulfilled by aught but itself. For to understand love is to be wounded by your own understanding of love. For truly that which is the greatest labor is to love without reservation and without hope or agenda. For in truth work is love made visible...', (from the book, The Prophet, by Kalil Gibran Regarding Love).
Know this, all who pass this way. I am but a simple journeyman. I am what is called, a wordsmith. And thus, I am nothing to this world, other than through that which the powers beyond have seen fit to allow me to be, a voice, and a sound, that becomes the music of my words, my thoughts, my feelings, and all that I am, have been, and ever shall be. Thus, my work here is truly an act of my love made visible, for all who pass this way, and all who I have had the honor of knowing in the life that I have been given. Thank-You so much for visiting my journal. I am, and always shall be, honored by your presence.
My Personal Pages
My Beloved Wife, Aileen Terra, Just 3 Days Before She Died On Novmeber 20,2010, at Malachi House, in Cleveland, Ohio. My darling Leen was, and always shall be, “… my other heartbeat…”.

The term "Bitter Harvest" was what Aileen and I called our marriage. For we always felt that we had gained so much, but also lost so much.
What I Told My Darling Beloved Aileen, After Her 2nd And Last Chemo Treatment
After the second chemo treatment the that Aileen was given, she had become so weak that the doctors and the cancer team concluded that she could not survive another chemo embolization. And so we were all in her hospital room when this news was related to her. And with tears in my eyes. I turned to one of the doctors and told him I was sorry I had not done better. And he told me that I was perfect. That I was just perfect.
Aileen looked at me and asked me why no one had told her that the chemo treatments were not going to cure anything. And I simply said to her,"Because my darling if we would have told you that you would not have tried as hard as you did to survive.". And then she responded by saying,"Well now what do I do?"
And holding her hand. I looked into my wife's eyes, into the eyes of my darling Aileen, and said, " well sweetheart, we become glad. We are glad we are here now. And then tonight we are glad that we made it to this evening. And then tomorrow morning we will get up and be glad that we got through the night. And then the next day we will get up and do it all over again."
And then with that wonderfully unbelievable courage in her eyes, and face, she said, "Then what".
And I leaned close to her and said, "Then my darling, you die. But I'll be right here. No matter what I will always be right here."
This conversation took place in August of 2010. And as anyone who has read this journal knows, my darling Aileen, my 'other heartbeat' died on November 20th, 2010 at 3:30 AM, at Malachie House in Cleveland, Ohio.

My Den..

This is where I spend my most of my time. My Den. The chair is Aileen's father's chair. And because my left lung is mostly not functional, I have to sleep sitting up. So I rest my legs on the other chair and then use the microphone by the chair to do my speech dictations for the journal articles I write. It's simple. But for me that's enough.

My Grandmother used to tell me that “good things come in small packages”.

The interesting thing about this picture, is that this is me, when I was 4 years old. It was actually the first time I left the house. And of course I'm with my father. But the interesting thing is that, no one knew, or they didn't admit it, that I was, in fact a midget. I olny grew to be 4'3" tall. And remained at that height, until in 1968, in the space of 8 months, my legs, and only my legs, grew a total of 8 inches. The result was that my spine collapsed. And when the surgey was done on me in 1968, I only had 3 months left to live. And the doctors only gave me a 40% chance of surviving the 13 hour operation.

A life of pain, on a road of self-discovery…

This is how my spine looked 2 years before Aileen died. That would make it 2008. My back was sewn up with piano wire. And my left hip was broken in two place. And then the doctors cut 25% of my left hip away to sew them to the spine where the knotches in my back are. As a result, I actually have 2 fusions. For my left hip became fused when it was broken, and had to be sewn up with harp wire. Both my nervous systems have been completely severed. Which means no pain medication has any effect on me. This is because most of the nerves in my body are either broken or torn. I have blown out nerves in both my legs. And torn nerves all through my body. Some people go through life and they have a pain. And then take a pill. And the pain is gone. Not one single second have I lived, since 1968, when I did not have at least 15 to 20 pains on a level of 8.5 to 9.5 on the pain scale. The doctors tell me that I won't make 65 because my left lung is 90% collapsed. When they last to me that I simply responded, "You know, it wasn't you who saved my life. Remember, I died on September 2, 1968 for a full 5 minutes. So what happens now, is not between you and me. It's between me and God. When I get up every morning, as I have done for the past 40 years, I always say one thing. "Thank-you God for giving me another day to do the very best I can at just being me. Let's see how we do, Okay?"

My Bout With Throat Cancer

This is me in September of 1969, just 3 months after the doctors cut my thorat cancer out of the right side of my throat. This picture was taken, in reality, because they did not expect me to live. But I've never been one to walk into a room quietly. Nor go out that either. My weight at this time was just 93 pounds. And my height, after the spinal surgery, that had me on my back in a 75 pound plaster body cast for 8 1/2 months was now 5'11", where before the operation I was 17 years old with a height of only 4'3".

This is The Saddle Ridge, which is a mountain that was behind Southern Arizona School, which has now become Fenster School of Southern Arizona. I had to clime this 1 mile high moutain every single day for a solid year, in order to fight the cancer that I got in 1969, when I was recovering for a solid year in the hospital from a massive spinal fusion that was done on me in order to save my life.

With 78% of the population of the United States being Christian, that also means that 78% of all the:
-
crimes
-
domestic violence
-
rapes
-
murders
-
hate crimes
-
child molestations
-
child abuse
incidents that take place every year, are committed by Christians. And that is something that the Christians and the Catholics do not want to admit to. That if they are the majority in any given nation. They not are only, by statistical fact, responsible for all the “good” things that happen, in any given nation. They are also responsible for all the “bad” things that happen as well.
It’s all about taking responsibility for one’s own choices and actions.

Actual Distribution Of Wealth In The United States

It's Important to remember that the republican party and the tea party have always claimed that the people suffering the most, and having the hardest time making it in the US are the "wealthy". If that's true, then why is it that the poor are the ones who have the least money and are going without, while the wealthy keep most of the money. When thinking about the republican and tea parties, can anyone say "liar"?

Republican Party – Tea Party Track Record Fact Sheet
While the tea party in the Republican Party will go out of their way to deny everything, the facts remain the same.
1. Did the Republican Party and the tea party, while at the same time refusing to take away any tax breaks or loopholes from the richest American people and the largest companies in this country? Yes they did.
2. Did the Republican Party and the tea party members of Congress behave in a symptomatic manner, meaning they targeted their action at fixing the symptom of the problem? Rather than to behave in a problematic matter where they targeted their action at fixing the problem? Yes they did.
The reason I say that is that, by cutting Medicare, all the Republican Party did was to go after the symptom of the problem. Because the actual problem for why Medicare is increasing so much is because cancer cases are skyrocketing. So naturally more people are getting sick.
3. Did the Republican Party or the tea party members of Congress do anything to resolve the root of the problem, meaning trying to help the sick who are becoming in desperate need of medical care? No, they did not.
4. Did the Republican Party or the tea party members of Congress give up any of their medical benefits for their salaries, or the," soft-money bribes", they are taking. While at the same time denying those same medical benefits for the money those cancer patients in the United States were dying right now, need in order to be able to survive? No, they did not. Republican Party and the tea
Party is refusing to give up any of their medical benefits or the money they are getting in their salaries for the soft-money bribes they are taking. While at the same time taking away the medical benefits and the money that cancer, patients who are dying right now need in order to survive.
So how does that work? How are the Republican Party and the tea party members? Good Christians when they are in fact condemning millions of cancer patients to die, while the Republican Party gets all the medical benefits and the tea party gets all the medical benefits and the money they want?
5. Did the Republican Party and the tea party refused to compromise repeatedly regarding trying to fix the economic system? Yes they did.
6. Did the Republican Party and the tea party lied to the American people when they said that their particular economic plan would be good for the economic system of this country? Yes they did. Because as a result of what the tea party and Republican Party did, by refusing to compromise for the greater good, global economic systems around the world have had the worst economic crash in modern history.
7. Did the Republican Party and the tea party violate their oath of office to protect and defend the Constitution with their lives? And to secure the rights and liberties of the American people, when the tea party and Republican Party are in fact taking, soft-money bribes, from the richest Americans in this country and the largest corporations in this country, in order to give the wealthiest Americans and the largest corporations in this country special access to the legislative process. Which of course violates their oath of office? Yes they did.
8. Did the Republican Party and the tea party members of Congress actually elevating themselves above the people of this country by keeping the medical benefits that they want and the money they want, while at the same time denying those same medical benefits and money to the people they represent who are in fact legally defined under constitutional law as the employers of the members of Congress? Yes they are. Under constitutional law is against constitutional law for any member of the United States Congress to elevate themselves above any American citizen. Meaning, that the members of Congress are not allowed to have special rights or privileges or be treated better than the people they represent.
9. Are the Republican Party and the tea party members of Congress actually in violation of federal law as a result of not maintaining economic equivalency to the people they represent? Yes they are.
Under federal law, pursuant to constitutional law, it is against the law for any member of Congress did not maintaining economic equivalency to the people they represent. Meaning, that any member of Congress must in fact be able to economically relate to the people they represent. So how is it possible for the members of the United States Congress, specifically the members of the tea party and the Republican Party to be able to economically relate to the people they represent. In addition, the people they represent are for the most part losing their homes with many of them going hungry. While at the same time, the tea party and the Republican Party are getting all the medical benefits and money they want?
The tea party and the Republican Party will go out of their way to lie to the American people. This is what they have done. Continually ever since, they ever came into being. Because they don't know how to be honest. However, the fact of the matter still remains. Every American citizen in this country to the same old. Every American citizen is required to lay down their life defense of the Constitution. That is the law. In addition, for any American citizen to ever supplant their duty to sacrifice their life in defense of the Constitution with any agenda of religious or otherwise, is an act of subversion of the Constitution and a violation of constitutional law. That is the law.
So while the members of the Republican Party and the tea party can yell and scream about how great they are. The fact is that what they get. As a result of their unwillingness to compromise for the greater good has basically crashed every single major economic system in the entire world.
10. Did the Republican Party and the tea party squander the time they had to resolve the deficit crisis long before July 2011? Yes they did.
The Republican Party and the tea party did everything they could to destroy the economic system. In addition, they did so not with the intention of helping me people of this country. They did so as every new service has confirmed, with the intention of doing only one thing. To destroy the Obama administration. In addition, is that not a violation of their oath of office? Yes it is.
Because the members of Congress are not allowed under any circumstances to put any agenda personal or otherwise ahead of their duty to sacrifice their lives in defense of the Constitution. That is the oath they took. However, by putting the importance of wanting to destroy the Obama administration. I had their oath of office actually violated federal law.
11. Did the tea party and the Republican party violate federal law when they declared publicly that they would not raise the deficit ceiling? Yes they did. Because their duty is not to maintain a posture of obstructionism. Their oath of office is very clear. Which is to defend and protect Constitution with their lives. In addition, to secure the rights and liberties of the American people. Which they are not doing when they are in fact declaring that they will not raise the deficit ceiling the matter what.
12. Did congressional representative Jacobs violate federal law when he said that one of the reasons he got into Congress was to bring back traditional values to the American people? Yes he did.
By virtue of the First Amendment, every American citizen is allowed to have freedom of speech and freedom of thought. Nowhere in the oath of office does the oath say that congressional representative Jacobs has the right to define what traditional values are for all Americans. In addition, by doing, what he did and making that statement, he is abrogating and impeaching the civil liberties of all Americans under the First Amendment. Because Mr. Jacobs is basically taking it upon himself to define for all Americans. What thoughts all Americans are allowed to have pursuant to what traditional values are for all Americans. Yet Mr. Jacobs did not take that as an oath of office. That is not one of his duties or his responsibilities under constitutional law pursuant to his oath of office.
Some the matter what lies the Republican Party or the tea party might tell you. The foregoing are the actual facts of the matter. In addition, what is even more disturbing is that the Christian conservatives in the Republican Party and the tea party. I doing everything they can to destroy the Obama administration, which shows very clearly that they have an agenda that they are in fact supplanting as far as being more important than their duty as American citizens to protect and defend the Constitution. Which means at the very least that the Republican Party and the tea party are guilty of potential charges and the federal crime known as subversion of the Constitution.
13. Did the republican party or the tea party members of Congress do anything to fix the jobs, and/or unemployment, problems that America is facing? No, they did not.
The United States is a nation of laws. The United States is not a nation based upon any religious document. And what is even more disturbing is that the Republican Party and the Christian conservatives and the tea party are doing everything they can to abrogate them to impeach the civil liberties of the Constitution. Yet it is by the very laws of the Constitution that gave the tea party and the Republican Party and the Christian conservatives the right to demonstrate their hatred.
So how intelligent is it for the Republican Party and the tea party and the Christian conservatives to be attacking and trying to destroy the very document that gives them the right to demonstrate their hatred? That is exactly like trying to cut one's nose off to spite one's face.
Everyone loves to talk about the Constitution and how they have rights. The fact of the matter is every American citizen in this country to the same oath as an American citizen. Therefore, we all have the same legal duty. Choose to obey and to protect and defend the Constitution with our life. In addition, we are not allowed under any circumstances to have any agenda religious or otherwise supersede our duty to protect and defend the Constitution. Because the United States is a nation of laws. Not a nation based on any one particular religious document.
So again, the tea party and the Republican party can say anything they want. However, the fact of the matter is they are in violation of constitutional law. They have been shown as anti-American citizens. They have been shown that they are not patriotic. They have been shown that they have been using symptomatic logic where they in fact are targeting the symptom of the problem and not the problem itself. As a result of their unwillingness to compromise. They have basically caused the worst economic crash in modern history.
In addition, if that isn't enough, the Republican Party and the tea party had all of the month of April and May and June to resolve this entire matter. However, they did not.
Instead, they showed the entire American public and the entire world at the Republican Party and the tea party and the Christian conservatives were more concerned with their electability, then there duty to put up and shut up and do their jobs as American citizens, which is to give their lives defense of the Constitution. That is of course what they did not do.
That is why I am urging all like-minded American citizens to contact the Department of Justice immediately and to demand a full investigation into the actions of the Republican Party and the tea party and the Christian conservatives on the grounds of the federal crime of subversion of the Constitution and possible charges of insurrection against the United States and against the Constitution.
Oliver Wendell Holmes has said that it is impossible to defend and protect the Constitution when one is actively engaged in either abrogating or impeaching civil liberties that the Constitution embraces and protects.
The United States is a nation of laws. In addition, United States will remain a nation of laws, or the United States will no longer be United States.
My Philosophy Of Life

I drew this diagram while at Southern Arizona School in 1969. I drew it after I had survived throat cancer. I drew it because I believed then, as I do now, that, for me, it truly represents all there is to life. See, I'm in the center of the circle. But that's just it. If I'm in the center of the circle. That means I'm the subset of the circle around me wich represents my family and friends. And by the same term, my family and friends are a subset of all life. And so I realize that if I am turly the subset of my family, and they are the subset of all life. Then, in reality, I need never care or work for myself. For if I spend my time here on earth, doing all I can to work for "all life". Then, by sheer logic, I am by the like term, working for my family and friends, and then of course, working for me. I never made a lot of money, or became rich or famous in my life. But I tend to think, now that I am approaching the last years of my life, that this one diagram, from so long ago, truly was a good decision on my part. Perhaps one of the better ones I've made along the way.Our world is filled with such hatred and so much violence. I guess if I have any hope left inside of me, that I shall hope that humankind one day will be able to look at this simple drawing and see it for what I saw it so long ago... What I alway called this was "My philosophy of life". But what I called it to my darling wife Aileen, was, "my map of the human soul".
My Pro-Life Statement
For the record, I am pro-life. I do not support violence against, or the killing of any human being under any circumstances! And the only way that I ever deviate from that stand is that I do not believe that God has ever given any human the right to dictate to any woman how she is to arbitrate her life with the Almighty, and/or God. Therefore, I believe that all women deserve the right to choose for themselves the fate of their own bodies, pursuant to their relationship with the Almighty, and/or God. My position regarding this statement is more fully explained in my article entitled: Second Gear
My Hospital Bed In 1968, When My The Top Half Of My Spine Was Fused
My Statement Regarding Religion
For the record, I not now, nor have I ever hated any human being on earth. I do not hate, regarding my spirituality, and spiritual beliefs, anything that God did make. Meaning that I do not hate the “humanity” that exists within any human being. However, God did not make the personal choices that humans make, regarding how they behave, and/or present themselves, to the world. So if a human being chooses, of their own free will to demonstrate their behavior with racism, bigotry, prejudice, and hatred for other humans, on the basis of their own free will choice as to how they define their spirituality within themselves, that is their own choice. So I do not hate any human being for being that which God did make. I hate only the choice and the manner in which humans have decided to demonstrate their behavior to one another. I do not hate religion. However, I will never give my support to “any” religion, that has ever caused harm to, or killed, a single human being, in any way, as a result of the religion demonstrating, or manifesting it’s presence in the world. If any religion has ever harmed or killed a single human being, I respect the right of all humans to believe what they want in life. I, personally, will under no circumstances give my support for any religion, or theological belief, that has ever harmed or killed even a single human being. This is what I have dedicated my life to as a spiritualist and a pacifist here on earth. So any attempt by anyone to portray me as hating anyone. Because that is not so. The foregoing clearly shows that I have no hatred for humankind or for any religion.There But For The Grace of God, Go I…
This was my darling Aileen in her hospital bed, shortly after she was diagnosed with Liver Cancer. I had just gotten her back into bed after helping her to have a shower. I'm including this picture here, under the Medical Links, for us all to remember, that life does not descriminate. People do. Cancer is skyrocketing right rnow in the US and around the world. For ANY of us to think that, "... it can't happen to me... " is a very serious mistake. We as humans need to do better. Better at caring for ourselves. and each other.

The Neural Tube

Within just seven days after gestation, which means seven days after the sperm penetrates the egg, the egg flattens out and then begins to curl upward. As it curls upward at that particular moment, it forms what is known as "the neural tube". At the very moment that the neural tube is first curling upward and being formed, at that very singular instant, when this action takes place, is when the very first "engrams" of the very first aspects of "memory" are in fact being recorded, in what will become the subconscious part of the "future" brain, as the brain develops, in the fetus. This is because the neural tube ends up initially becoming the brainstem, which then, as gestation continues, then of course grows further to extend, becoming finally the spinal column, which then expands creating both nervous systems of the entire body.
Food For Thought…
When it is considered that the dinosaurs, who were the dumbest creatures to exist in the history of the world, lived here for 200 million years, or 200 sections of time, and did not harm the earth in any way. Nor did they do any real damage to their own species. And then, when we look at humanity, meaning human beings, having lived here for approximately 14 million years or 14 sections of time we find that we have virtually destroyed the entire ecosystem for the entire planet, are on the verge of destroying our entire economic and social systems, the mind wonders...
How come we humans think we are the top of the chain, when we have done more damage to ourselves and the entire world, than the dumbest creature to have ever existed in the history of the world? How come we think we're the top of the food chain when the major byproduct of our existence has been to basically destroy the entire world, and ourselves?
I mean, humanity. A good idea? Or God's way of telling us that "Intelligent Design" means that humanity is really the SOCK PUPPET of the universe?
The Dinosaurs…

The Tesseract

In 1972 I worked with Dr. J.B. Rhine of Duke University on my theory of the Multidimensionality of Informational Signal Recognition. While I was working with Dr. Rhine, he shared with me his advance work on his thesis of The Tesseract. The Tesseract, quite simply is a mathematical "shadow" of a 4th dimensional square. I used Dr. Rhine's work on the Tesseract, to complete my own thesis on how most information is actually multidimensionally defined. And therefore not really felt or physically realized by us, as humans. And that, in point of fact, most of the information that exists in the entire universe is non-physical by nature. Thus, all forms of animate and inanimate life, send and receive a great deal of information, with the majority of the informational exhange being of a non-physical nature.

Flight Of Man

I took this picture in North Carolina in 1973. I then processed it to the point of what you are seeing now. The picture came out so well, that 3 people actually approached me, and wanted to buy copies of this one photograph for the price of $800. I then gave the money away to a local children's hospital where spinal injury patients were being treated. I have always called this picture "The flight of man". Meaning that on the left the figure of a man can be seen chasing what appears to be his soul. And it struck me that this one picture represented so much of my own life.

My Darling Aileen The Day I First Met Her

Self-Portrait..

In 1972, while attending Fort Lewis College, in Durango, Colorado, one weekend I was camped out on a layer of ice and snow, at the top of Mount Evenston, in Colorado. It was early morning. And I was waiting for my stove to heat up enough for me to cook my breakfast. So I thought I would record the moment for posterity. The standing temperature outside my glacier tent was approximately 65 degrees below 0. And with with the wind, I believe that the temperature was about 125 below 0. Inside the tent, the temperature was a tepid 25 degrees. Needless to say, I was not going to go out and back down the mountain until the weather warmed up a bit. The time when I took this picture was about 5:30am.

The Reach…

This is the statue in front of the Cleveland, convention center. I took this picture the nighth before I went into the hospital in August 1968. Some people have said that they see the statue to be someone reaching upward to freedom. I have always seen this statue as me, at the gates of Hell, reaching upward, warning all humanity "do not come this way. For the love of God. Do not come this way"
Pastor Martin Niemöller
"THEY CAME FIRST for the Communists,
and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Communist.THEN THEY CAME for the Jews,
and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Jew.THEN THEY CAME for the trade unionists,

That if they are the majority in any given nation. They not are only, by statistical fact, responsible for all the “good” things that happen, in any given nation. They are also responsible for all the “bad” things that happen as well.
It’s all about taking responsibility for one’s own choices and actions.

The Mental Ward

When Aileen and I started living together in our home in 1993. I put this sign over the door going OUT of the front door of out home. I put it there, as I told her at the time, so that we would always remember that no matter how crazy we might be in our own lives, that the true Mental Ward was on the other side of this door. In the outside world. So when people leave our home, they understand that they are entering the "real" mental ward.

One reason my darling Leen loved me so much, and why I loved her, was because not only were we each other's friend. But we really loved making each other laugh. We were truly each other's heartbeat. And she has been that. And shall be that. My other heartbeat for all that I shall ever be. I miss her so deeply. so much. Just hugely.

Having A Pizza With The Dragons At The Other Table
I realize that some people who are reading my technical reports, who are in the computer industry, are probably thinking I am basically nothing but an airhead.
However, as I have said many times, the system reports. I not only designed to be of assistance to people who are having issues with their own computers. But they are also designed for people who do not really know very much about the technical aspects of their computers. Furthermore, after having been around computers as long as I have, I always have lived by the principal that what does not feel right is probably not right.
So with everything I had talked about regarding Internet Explorer, IE 9; as I was beginning to work on the comments this afternoon something in the back of my mind kept nagging at me. And so I thought for a moment and I realized that in reality. Firefox of the three browsers meaning the three main browsers, actually handled bookmarks. The best. And this began to nag at my mind because I noticed that Internet Explorer even though it is claiming to be the most secure browser, just did not seem to want to interface with some of the updated websites such as WordPress, that I was going to. Furthermore, I could not get over why when I was using Firefox the audio service on my system was turned on but when I was using Internet Explorer. It was not.
And of course, part of actually understanding the computer that you home whether it is a laptop or a desktop makes no difference. Because part of the responsibility for owning a piece of machinery like that is to actually take it seriously. And to try to learn as much as you possibly can not only about how to use the machine. But but also how to maintain it and to services and to take care of it.
So the issue of why the audio service in my Windows 7 operating system was always turning off under Internet Explorer and never was under Firefox just sort of sat at the back of my mind. And so, realizing that he going back to Firefox. I would appear to a lot of the technical people like I was just an old lady having a blonde moment, I decided it was the better part of valor to go back to Firefox.
True, doing this, basically is sort of going around in a revolving door. And yet, as soon as I went back to Firefox. I was right. The audio service on my Windows 7 operating system turned back on. And what is more, everything began to load a lot more correctly and quickly.
But, realizing that there is a display issue with Firefox and some of its newsreaders. And also realizing that I had no real way of linking into Windows live writer from any of the particular newsfeeds I might gather, I wrestled for a few moments with going back to Feeddemon. But in reality, that is the best way to go. Because then in actuality I can do exactly what I want. I can choose one particular news story in the various categories. And then because Firefox has this really splendid way of opening a window with all of your bookmarks. I can then simply go right down the list of the bookmarks. I have collected and choose which ones are pertinent for the various news stories. I want to present.
And while many people might think that what I have gone through is basically chasing my tail. I never look at it that way. Because I do not look at life experiences as either bad or good. I look at life experiences as always, providing new information that I can learn from. And so this huge section of three or four days where I was basically out of touch with my Journal and racing to rebuild my computer system accomplished a number of things.
For one, I finally broke down and bought a flash drive for my computer. And that is a good thing. Because I can then store some critical programs that I need to keep handy on the flash drive and never lose them again. Additionally, I gained a tremendous amount of knowledge. How Internet Explorer relates to the Windows 7 operating system as compared to Google Chrome and Firefox. I also learned which I had no idea of before, that Google actually is behaving in a very unscrupulous manner by installing the Google updater service or program routine into the Windows 7 environment, without anyone knowing it. And that trying to remove the Google updater service or program routine is basically a nightmare from hell.
So everything I went through was truly worth it.
Comments and Schedule:
So in any event, I am about one third of the way clearing the comments on my Journal. Which I intend to do this evening. Then I just need to update my calendar so that I can schedule the time to make sure I have the time allotted to gather the news stories as compared to writing the Journal articles. Plus of course trying to maintain this house. And so I believe that I will probably start writing news stories again tomorrow morning. And yes. I have been reading the news and there is a ton to write about.
It is important that people understand that I am not writing in this journal as if I were an expert because I am not. But I am intelligent. And I am a thinker. And I am an intellectual. And as such, when I look at these news stories. I realize that my take on a lot of the news stories is a bit different. Or perhaps very similar in some ways. But also, because of the fact that I actually grew up in a Republican household where my family was actually responsible for running the entire Republican Party for Northeast Ohio. I gained a tremendous amount of insight into the conservative mentality not only in Cleveland Ohio, but throughout the United States.
And then, with my schooling and life experience I basically gained a tremendous amount more knowledge about how conservativism, anthropologically speaking, throughout the world is truly limiting humanity’s potential toward innovation and invention and creativity.
And having studied philosophy is much as I have, there are philosophical aspects to what I write in my journal that I believe will never provide any answers for anyone. But at the very least they will provide some rather significant questions. And that really is my only goal. As I have always maintained, I do not do answers. All I ever tried to do is ask some of the most difficult questions I can. Because in the 61 years I have lived in my life answers have never given me any kind of real insight into anything. But when I discovered really difficult questions. I was never concerned with trying to find the answer to those questions as much is I was concerned with how much I could learn from those questions.
And that is something I really try to share in my Journal. The reality is that at 61 years old my time left in this world is to some degree limited. But I really do love this world. And I really do love humanity. I love humanity more than most people and humanity even understand. But I always have. I never responded to the child abuse or the physical or emotional abuse that I received from my parents and other people the way that many others did. I came out of that abuse not being angry at humanity. And while I was and still am very angry at the behavior, meaning specifically the behavior, that humanity demonstrates and promotes and supports. I am never angry at humanity. Because coming out of the abuse I lived with most of my life. I always felt very sorry for humanity. I felt sorry that humanity had to go to such an extent to abuse various elements within humanity so that others would feel more important or feel like they were better than other people.
And so growing up. I became much more interested in demonstrating my love for humanity by not focusing on all of the expedient plug-in answers that humanity wanted to give to people. But instead wanting to focus on the questions. What can we learn by looking at the most impossible questions that we can. Because when you look at those really difficult questions you are not going to learn the answer. At least not an answer you can put into words. Because when you look at those questions. It is not an explanation or an answer that you can actually articulate. It is an understanding. It is a comprehension. When you look at these huge horribly unbelievably complex questions you are not going to find an answer. Because in many cases there is no answer. And even that statement itself is not an answer. Because language, meaning the language that we humans use, is only the tiniest fraction of all of the information that exists in the universe. Language is nothing more than coded symbols that we look at in order to express the actual thoughts within ourselves.
And those thoughts go so far beyond what language is capable of expressing that we as human beings Endep using music and art and meditation and religion and spirituality and a host of other things in order to try and express those thoughts which we cannot put into words. And yet everything we do with all of the various forms of attempts to express what is going on inside of our minds and inside of our lives and sub being that tiniest fraction unimaginable up all of the tremendous amount of information there is in the universe. Because remember, the universe is infinite. So our language can being nowhere near significant with regard to the amount of information that exists in the universe. Because the universe is infinite.
So for anyone to think that what they know, as far as what they can express it language is truly significant is probably kidding themselves. Because no matter what we express in words and in our language can never come anywhere close to expressing the tremendous informational dialogue that exists in the universe, most of which that has nothing to do with our language. Furthermore, most of the information that we experience every single second as human beings is not even physical at all. Because true information and informational signal recognition does not take place simply in the third dimension, meaning the physical realm. Every single aspect of life here on earth. Whether it is a rock or a piece of dirt or an animal such as a dog or a cat or a plant. Every single aspect of life here on earth receives and sends out information, most of which is not physical in any way.
It is the human condition that has been regimented to existing within only three dimensions whereby humans are convinced that the only valuable information there is exists within those three dimensions. And yet, that would then suggest that we humans are in fact the superset of the universe which is not true. Humanity is a very tiny small speck and a subset of all of the huge life that exists in the universe. And for us to be sanctimonious enough to think that our language is so important that we do not need to even consider any of the other information in the universe is not only absolutely stupid, but it is making sure that humanity will not involve and that we will not expand our thinking and if we do not expand our thinking. We do not have a chance to survive
If one generation does not become better than the other then there is no forward evolutionary progress. Give one generation simply stays exactly like the one before it. Then humanity never involves. Humanity never grows. Humanity never becomes more enlightened or expanded. If all we do is pack ourselves down into a very narrowminded perspective of everything that exists. We then in fact deny to ourselves. The existence of everything we claim to believe in which is in fact that not only the God we worship but that the universe is infinite. And if God and the universe is infinite that our knowledge has to accommodate that infinite aspect of God and the universe. And to not be cognizant of the infinite aspects of the God we claim to worship or the universe is again for us to deny the very things we claim to believe in.
Just like my skin crawls when people are claiming that one religion is more valid than another. Because that is absolutely ludicrous and air responsible. There can be no one single way to understand God or the universe. Because in reality, God or the universe, or science and religion is not to separate types of knowledge. In reality, science and religion are exactly the same knowledge. The only thing that is different is the perspective. Because they are both part of the infinite aspect of all information. So for anyone who is religion oriented or religious to say that their knowledge is different than science is the dumbest thing I think I have ever heard. Because religion and science are exactly the same knowledge. They exist within the same infinite aspect of all information throughout the entire universe.
So all of this bull ship that people are going through bargaining over science and religion is basically the dumbest thing in the world. Because the reality is it is not the knowledge that is different. It is the perspective that is different.
And if you do not believe me, and I hope that you do not. Just look at history. Look at what religion talks about with regard to the universe and then look at quantum mechanics and quantum physics and Newtonian metaphysics. Then look at stellar mechanics and astrophysics. And as you look at these different sciences, you are going to see a lot of the same principles and those scientific disciplines being expressed in religion from a spiritual perspective. The principles are the same. The perspective is different.
So, my Journal and the years I have left here in this world is not to do what I have always done in years past especially when my darling wife Aileen was alive. Because when Aileen was alive. She and I worked shoulder to shoulder to try to do everything we could to rescue as many people here on Earth from horrible situations as possible. And because Aileen was much more of a social butterfly that I was, she was, to a great extent much more successful at being social. But that is okay. My talent is and being social. My talent is as a thinker.
And so of I can give anything back to my fellow humans here on earth. If I can give anything back to humanity in the years I have left to be alive then. My hope is to truly do exactly what I am doing right now. To give humanity the toughest questions I can possibly come up with. To present the most difficult issues I can think of in my Journal. Issues that have no answers whatsoever. But that when the reader reads what I am writing they come away with huge questions. Questions that are so gigantic that their minds literally open up hugely. That their minds as a result of seeing these questions are being aware of these questions. Suddenly are open to to unbelievable gigantic further questions. Because that is the reality.
The universe will never be explained. The universe will never be confined into the narrowminded perspective of humanity pursuant to language. There are aspects of the universe that defy every single form of language humans have ever invented since the beginning of time. There are things in the universe that have absolutely no way of linguistic expression. There are occurrences taking place in the universe that are so beyond language that even religion has no way of being able to comprehend or even extrapolate what is going on.
And if I do not present these concepts in my Journal that I have not done my job as a fellow human being here on Earth to always aspired to the greater good. I am hugely passionate about wanting humanity to do better. I am hugely passionate about my understanding and my awareness of how incontestable the human condition and all of our language really is when compared to the infinite aspect of the universe. All anyone has to do is look at a map of the universe or what we know of the universe which is classified as, the known universe. And when you do you see that the galaxy that we, meaning Earth, resides in, known as the Milky Way, is actually so tiny and so small that it is barely a speck in the universe. And in the galaxy, known as the Milky Way, which is where Earth is, Earth itself is such a tiny speck in that galaxy that we literally are just nothing more than a pinprick of life in the universe.
The movie, Horton hears a who is so absolutely representative of what we humans are on earth. Because we are infinitesimal compared to the gigantic infinite aspect of the universe. And religion is a very limiting word and concept. Because religion applies to strictly our understanding here on earth of something that is infinite and defies explanation.
So consequently, when I have encounters like I have gone through with my computer system over the last several days. I never look at those situations as a negative. And I am always prepared to adapt to constant change. Part of that is as a result of my having been a spinal fusion survivor all my life. Because I always had to adapt to constant changes within my body and the environment. But for whatever other reasons I always was much more fascinated with looking at the questions that I ever was with the answers.
And when I write these Journal articles that I write like I said I am not interested in giving anyone answers. When I write like I am writing in these past several paragraphs I am writing from the very core inside of myself of how I really feel. And this type of writing is much different than the political writing. I do. But the political writing and the human rights advocacy writing that I do is designed by my own intention to be as divisive and as confrontational as I can possibly make it. Because only by being that way will I ever shake people up enough for them to ask the tougher questions of themselves and each other and their families. Because of what is happening in this world.
There is no excuse for the human condition to claim that we are pro-life and at the same time allow over 6 million women to either been raped or murdered every single year in the United States alone. That is not pro-life. Just like we are not pro-life when we are allowing 18 children to starve to death and 17 children to be murdered every single minute. Just like we are not pro-life when we turn our backs on the mentally ill regardless what country they are living in. Whereby, every 15 min. around the world another child or adult is becoming so desperate and so lost and alone that the only thing they can think of doing is killing themselves. That is not pro-life.
But for me to try to reach people who have become so complacent in their own lives and used to listening to the answers and accepting the answers and never asking questions the only way I can shake people up enough to turn them away from accepting all of the superfluous and stereotypical answers is to be as divisive as I possibly can. To make them uncomfortable. Tube make them realize that they continue looking at the answers they will learn nothing. The only way they will learn anything is to start asking questions. And the best question to ask is, why.
So I do lots of different types of writing. The writing I am doing right now is how I feel inside of my soul. I do not know any of you who are reading my Journal. There are a lot of you who are in the United States. But there are a tremendous amount of you who come from other countries all over the world. I do not know any of you. But what is absolutely so remarkable is that I love each and everyone of you who take the time to read my Journal as much as I have loved and as much is I still love my darling Aileen. I love the fact that you enjoy reading and that you enjoy thinking and that you are not complacent enough to sit back and simply watch TV or watch a video. That you are more interested in making your brain work. That you are interested in asking hard questions of yourselves.
Humanity is suffering beyond anything I have ever seen in all the years I have lived here on earth. And my heart literally weeps for the suffering that so many millions of brilliant men and women and children are going through. My heart breaks thinking that we have veterans in every single nation here in the world. Men and women who have been committed to protecting their nation’s and standing up with the best of what is in their nations. And yet these men and women regardless of what nation they are in have been routinely forgotten by their governments. Just like in the United States. The conservatives thinkers in Washington get all the medical benefits that they want and all the money they want. And yet we have brilliant men and women who are wonderfully brave veterans in the United States who are suffering horribly with medical conditions. We have a ton of veterans in the United States who are homeless. We have amazingly brilliant men and women in our wonderful police forces and in our armed services who have children who are disabled and none of these people are getting any of the kind of medical benefits that the conservatives thinkers in Washington are making sure they get for themselves.
And for anyone to think that kind of behavior is peculiar to the United States is mistaken. Because governments all over the world are treating their veterans and their police the same way. And that is wrong. The police and the veterans are just like you and I. They are people. They are men and women with families just like the rest of us. If we can show them the respect that they deserve for being willing to put their lives on the line to defend our country’s and to defend us as people then what value do we have?
So I do not know any of you. But I love all of you. Just always know that. No matter how I write. And no matter what I say every single thing I do in this Journal is driven all the way to the very core of my heart and soul by how much I love each and every single one of you.
So in conclusion, I am going back to Firefox and I in using Feeddemon. And that is fine. It is late. I am still fairly exhausted from the last four days of hardly sleeping at all why was rebuilding my system. Plus, in addition to doing the dictation. I did this morning and also doing the laundry today and cleaning the house and going through some of the spam comments I am pretty much done.
And with it being already 4:16 PM here in Cleveland where we are having a driving snowstorm with cold weather. My plan is to put the laundry away and to perhaps have a bowl soup. And curl up under the blanket and again watch some movies. I generally like the funny movies because they take my mind off of all of the serious stuff. I have to write all the time. And they take my mind off of how much I miss my darling Aileen. I miss her so badly. But I know she is inside of me. I know she is with me. Just like I know all of you are also.
And then, because I know how my sleep patterns are with it being around 4:30 PM here in Cleveland. I will probably be up around 10 PM tonight. And my voice will have recovered. And I will get back to forging ahead with the comments. And then updating my calendar. And then the next thing I want to do is go through the e-mail. And I will forge ahead. I am not going to let any of you down. Those of you like my Journal and those of you who occasionally read my Journal. I am never going to let any of you down. You will always get my highest effort no matter what.
The rules. It has always existed in this house even when Aileen was alive was simply that nothing falls to the ground and this house. And that goes back to the biblical expression that simply says it of God will not allow the smallest sparrow to fall to the ground then why should we as gods creations do any less?
Thank you all so very much for listening.
