If One Life is Helped by Knowing

Image
You Can't Go There Before Your Time What brought you here to earth - the stork? All of a sudden we get it. The sort of Eastern philosophy, and if you venture to say it's "new agey." You existed before you were born, and you exist after you die. If the truth of the subject of survival beyond the death experience, and reincarnation, was properly explained, suicide would be something people used to do. My purpose is to start a conversation to get in touch with the real issue - there is no escape from life in the afterlife. Ending a life prematurely before it's time to end does nothing but bring you into closer proximity with your problems. You cannot escape from yourself. Why am I so concerned about this issue? Because even with what I know and have experienced throughout my life, I have wanted to leave this life experience and go back to where I came from. Where did I come from? Simply put, I can remember the 'place of light,' since I w...

A Social Media Behavioral Model

Image
The virtual digital life is conversation through technology. We're not speaking. We're thinking and saying it in words. Our expression is feeling and emotion in writing. The inflection of the voice is not heard but words move ideas. As we read we react and respond. Our thoughts and feelings intermingle in the digital conversations. The word technology originates from the Greek word  techne meaning "art, skill and cunning of hand." Technology is the knowledge of the techniques involved in methods and processes of making machinery. Just about everything we use has a technical process. Someone implemented the technology to make the thing usable. Thank goodness they did. Philosophical debates propose technology will worsen the human condition not improve it. Let's not blame technology for our human traits good or bad. Robots won't ever replace the essence of human interaction. It takes a human to program the robot. The robot is only as g...

I Don't Want Your FREE

Image
Original Art: jm The selling of FREE is still alive and everyone's doing it. What you really get for free is the person on the other end of the offer for free. That's the funny side of it. Take a good look at them and check them out before you fall for their pitch. They look authentic and they have the numbers to prove their popularity, likes, and social proof. The problem is we are all trying desperately to "look good" just like everyone else, so we need a particular online image. Then we feel okay and now we are 'authentic.' There is something wrong with this picture. It is easy to fake an appearance online even though we hear a desperate, be yourself. Be true. Be authentic. If you don't have the numbers… well, something must be wrong. Measurement by the numbers is a false measurement. I want to do business with a real and authentic person. I don't want your FREE eBook that tells me I can publish a book a month I don't want yo...

The Truth About Socializing on Social Media

Image
Social Media is a black hole of experience and has changed from what it was. When social interaction online first began it was incredible. I remember how excited I was to be a beta user for the AOL chat room. The conversations we had online were thrilling. We exchanged views and talked about life because we could. Technology introduced us to a method of communication and connection we had not experienced before. I well remember the conversations and still smile to myself at how we 'hid' behind an identity but not for long. We laughed at how we could 'read between the lines' in our comments and could pick out the unpleasant people whom we banned from the chat room. We lived in a cyber world and some of us made long lasting friends and still communicate with those people whom we met years ago. Life was busy but no one allowed the chat room to interfere with life. The ability to chat online had its time but there were no advertising interruptions or selling t...

Do You See Love?

Image
Photo: fotolia Have you ever looked at the stillness of beauty, it is timeless, and without change. If you pause to look at the painted picture of roses you see an elegance and beauty. The rose is the flower of love and from the poet Robert Burns; "my love is like a red, red rose," tells the story of love through the rose. Such simple words symbolize love. The romance of the rose, the flower captivates the circular movement of love itself contained with its perfected form. Ancient Greeks and Romans associated the rose with Aphrodite the Greek goddess of love. Venus is the goddess of love and turns the hearts from sexual vice to virtue. The rose conveys the message of love in the beauty of its bloom. On the opposite side of the spectrum of love the rose came to be associated with the blood of Christian martyrs. How sad that anyone should have to spill their blood for a belief system. Love should promote the bond and the friendship but it should not inspire hatred....

Warnings From Spirit

Image
Suicide is on the rise lately - the number of people contemplating suicide is increasing and even worse acting out the deed of taking their own life. The result of taking your life does not end anything. When you enter the spirit world you take all your emotions with you. The Message is Vital - a warning from spirit Everyone knows someone that committed suicide or has a friend that took their life and crossed over to the other side thinking this would help them be relieved from their pain in this life. The opposite is true. I can tell you from my perspective the returning spirit comes in the same pain as they had when they were on earth to tell of how much they regret doing what they did. Their return is the message they bring to prevent those on earth who are wanting to end their life existence. I offer this information from a heartfelt desire to open the door of understanding about this subject from the perspective of the other side of life. It is ludicrous to...
