As a cool winter breeze blows softly, the first warmth of the winter sun for the day warms me again. Birds sing from trees near and far. Frogs sing in the sunshine as the creek sparkles in the morning sun. From a nearby farm, a rooster crows. No human sounds can be heard at all. It is bliss.

DEAR FRIENDS- What does it feel like to have completely released your primal, chronic "knot of fear"? It feels strong deep inside of you- and alive and happy! Utterly glad to be yourself and grateful to be breathing free on this good, beautiful, amazing and sacred Earth!

To be truly liberated from the unnecessary and undeserved fear from your childhood conditioning- restored to the open-hearted trust in which you were born- awakens you to the natural joy of being alive. And being YOU!

And as a result you blaze forth as your Authentic Self and remain in a state of bliss!

The imagination distorts reality. The mind believes all it imagines.

Reality is the pure experience of being within consciousness, it is the fullness of the now as it reveals itself as truth.

The mind cannot grasp reality. The fullness of truth must be felt within us as conscious knowing.

Truth will never be experienced in the mind. It cannot be believed into reality. It lies somewhere near the end of the minds journey and on the doorstep of the ever present now. Truth is found in accepting ourselves totally without question or judgment. It is knowing the knower as the known.

Stop! Stop running and spinning in circles, just stop. Let the vertigo subside and look at your surroundings. What do you see? The path you need to be on is right there, right in front of you! Put one foot in front of the other in forward motion and your goals can be accomplished. ~ Creator

Let me begin by explaining what I mean by rhetoric, it has a few different definitions so I'd like to be clear here. In academics, it's often defined as skill or effective use of writing and speech, but that's not the type of rhetoric I'm talking about here. Another definition is "language that is intended to influence people and that may not be honest or reasonable", and this is the rhetoric I'm speaking of. Take a political party for instance, it's as if they've only got one brain to pass around between them and they all repeat the same lines, the same rhetoric, over and over.

Friends…we are going through some chaotic times. Nothing is the same that it used to be, and we will NOT be returning to “the way things were”. Many are frightened by our unknown future, because the unknown tends to make us fearful. Is the bogey-man around the corner? Will he have green skin and hold terrifying weapons to be used against humanity?

Mother Nature seems to already be one step ahead of human interference, corn rootworms are now largely resistant to the toxin in Bt corn. Despite people predicting this would happen from the very beginning, our industrialized system of agriculture chose to ignore warnings and followed their own greed and short-sightedness. Perhaps people will now rethink trying to alter the whole ecosystem to serve human convenience? From wired.com:

One of agricultural biotechnology’s great success stories may become a cautionary tale of how short-sighted mismanagement can squander the benefits of genetic modification.

To move forward in life you must first accept the reality of what it is. To wish that things were different, or to pretend that they are, gets you nowhere. Today you have all the possibilities in front of you to move in the direction of your dreams.

Radical Acceptance says that life works better when you accept people for who they are, without judgment.  Once you have done that you can then act accordingly. What does that mean?
