A Happily Married - Gentle Artist who Loves People, Animals, Poetry, Music, MoonBeams, Nightfall & Dancing in Moonlight!
I've been surfing tonite, killing time while watching some comedy shows. I haven't had a lot of down time to play online lately, life has kept me rather busy.
So I stumbled into something that makes my heart sad. I'm always sad when I hear of racial profiling, etc... In a world where we have so many technological advances, how can it be that we still don't understand the need for more love and less hate?!
Don't get me wrong, I know some of us have figured it out, but it seems like the ones who are in charge aren't pushing the "Unity" message more.
I grew up in a world filled with prejudice and anger and hatred to anyone not "white" ... I walked away from that attitude as soon as life permitted me to. (When you are really young you don't always know how to get away from it so you can only use it as a learning tool.) I don't understand how someone can look at another person, a beautiful creation of God/dess and think them any less than themselves...another creation of God/dess! !!! !!!
My skin may be white...but my heart is a RainBow and it Dances upon the Clouds of the Future...hoping we will get it right before we blow ourselves and everyone else off the planet!!! !!! !!!!!!!!!!!
To those of you who still feel persecuted, etc... (and you know in your heart if you are this type of personality) ... I hope you can find the light of love to guide you away from the darkness of anger and hatred. It's so important not to spread the hate message in this world. I can't say I know how it feels to be persecuted for "skin color" however... I do know how it feels to be put down for something you have no control over. I know that we have a lot in our lives that we must work with ... I know that if we don't get it right, things can't go well for ourselves and others.
I know your hearts are heavy and your minds are full of the sludge of others' hate but I beg that you move beyond that to the point where you see how your love can help heal others.
Sometimes we don't choose to be whomever we may be... sometimes we are cowed by the force of others, the forces guided by insecurity and fear. If they are afraid of you (and they are so obviously afraid) ... then you already have the power. You don't need to drive that home painfully, but rather can guide them to realization through loving means.
When everyone else is fighting, we all should be pulling together ... showing the rest of the world that we truly are free.
Not just free to say what we want to, etc.
Free to behave the way we OUGHT TO!!! Free to love everybody. Every Body. Every Body. EVERY Body!!!
I don't hate you because you can't speak my language, I hate that I haven't been able to learn yours.... YET.
I don't hate you because you have a disability, I hate that you have been confined to limitations that cause you to hurt.
I don't hate the color of your skin or the color of your heart unless the heart is full of the blackness of hatred... then I don't hate you, I try to love you...if that fails, I ask for Divine inspiration to assist me so I might not fail.
I don't hate you because you hate me, I find something in common with you and build a friendship upon that single thing... to blossom and flourish above and beyond the petty behaviors of ignorance.
I Love You
Because you are a Divine Spark just like me.
Your on a different stripe of the beautiful RainBows of Life... a different stripe
Not a better one
Certainly not a worse one
Just a different one.
I do not fear that.
That is what will bring us all together in one glorious portrait of humanity and Love
If you're not working towards that, please come join us...
Many believe... those who believe must achieve
Those who Achieve must Lead
Those who Lead
Must also Love
Must continue to believe
Must continue to Achieve
Must never give up
Must never give in
Must never repeat the mistakes of the past.
Must learn a better way around
A kinder way that can astound
Those who have a voice that others listen to must find a way to achieve that peace without behaving like those who must be taught not to be ignorant.
Ignorance is not bliss, it's ignorance.
Bliss is cohabitating w/all others in peace.
So why is it so difficult for some people to cross that line? To learn to be appropriate and loving/forgiving/accepting, etc.. ?
Maybe some of them just need to be taught a better way without making them bleed in the process too.
A rather wise man told me often that 2 wrongs don't make a right. If our message is to be heard and implemented it must be heard gently and lovingly. That is the only tool we have that will EVER knock down these walls...
So Today I tell you this:
I Love You!!

Today's message isn't meant to be morbid...as you read on, pull your emotions back and let your mind hear what you're reading. ![]()
Death is a fact of Life...we see it almost every day, some people more than once a day.
Since we can only be "faith full" of what's going to be beyond this realm, I thought the following message (received from my Mom (thanks mom!!!!) in e-mail was worthy to share w/all who stumble into my Lair. Each of us gives something good, something bad and something we'd like to take back
...here is your chance to do something good for the hearts and minds of those you love and care about:
-LOVE YOU
One morning you will never wake up,
Do all your friends know you love them?
I was thinking...
I could die today, tomorrow or next week,
and I wondered if I had any wounds needing to be healed, friendships
that needed rekindling or three words needing to be said.
Let every one of your friends know you love them.
Even if you think they don't love you back,
you would be amazed at what those three little words and a smile
can do.
And just in case I am called home before I see you again.......
I LOVE YOU!!!-
Remember to Live Today to the fullest because Tomorrow is not promised!
Watch your Thoughts, they become words.
Watch your words, they become actions
Watch your actions, they become habits.
Watch your Habits, they become character.
Watch your Character, for it becomes your Destiny
Yes! Yes!! Yes!!!
Aliens have finally invaded Yahoo!! I love my new gear heh.
I Love it!!!
Just thought I'd share that blast of "woohoo" with all of you-hoo!!!

'Tis the season for Dragonflies! I love Dragonflies! To me they are the keepers of the keys to Dreamtime. Whenever I see them all aflitter about me I feel like there is magic on the wind currents. So beautiful! I just wanted to say hello to everyone and thank you all for the help in getting my place up and running! The Tarot Group is doing well, a nice little place to sit down, make friends and get/do a reading without having to sacrifice your first-born (just kidding!!) in payment! (The Feed for our group is available here to get you to the whole group.)
The rains have been pretty heavy in our area (Maryland) lately... the past few days have been mostly reprieve but I can help wanting to go running out like a little kid and splash in all of the puddles!! Of course the adult in me is intelligent enough to fear lightning when standing in water heh.... sigh. Ignorance is Bliss? (At times I think it might be at that!)
My son turned 18 this year...part of the reason I haven't been online too much is because w/out him being home, I've been missin' him pretty bad! Next year seems so far away but as age will attest, time has wings w/which to flit this way and that; keeping us grasping and gasping throughout life in wonderment. I love Spring and early Summer...they're productive times for me in the "real" world....whereas the colder seasons find me here more. However, with all of the rain, my plants are gasping for rafts to save them from the rivers at their roots. 
The full Moon looms over us stirring our passions and dreams... now is a good time to act!! Just remember your umbrella if you live 'round here!! heh.
Hope you all are having lovely seasons.... catch ya l8r!!
Many Hugs & Much Love from MoonBeam
Greetings!
Over the next few days I'll be putting up new photos and photo albums. I've put up pics of my artwork (not all of it, just a few ...so far.) Added some adorable animals and pictures of Kilgore Falls frozen in winter to remind us to be thankful of our warming weather.
Blessed Be One and All
Many Hugs from MoonBeam
