I am trying to work with the understanding that as our perceptions change, our experimental slideshow existence will inevitably change too. So as the moments of our life pass and give life to another, if we are receptive, we may move into higher ideals, change the platform we look outwards from, and in turn create a new slideshow of continuous motion in which we now exist in. If we are not open to change are we as well not open to life? I am but a testpiece in which my direction changes to allow others to find there's.
I've been on sabbatical. I've wrapped within a cocoon. I'll emerge again real soon.

This article was in the Oct issue of Ode Magazine. It really makes sense, inspires me to keep moving, laughing, crying and loving....just to keep being.
Tom Hanks' four-percent solution
How many cars would you have to take away from California's crowded roads to rid them of gridlock? A computer simulation supplied the answer: four percent, or four out of 100 cars. The study provided inspiration for actor Tom Hanks in a remarkable speech at Vassar College's graduation ceremony on 22 May in New York. "If this simulation is correct, it is the most dramatic definition in earthly science and human nature of how a simple choice will make a jaw-dropping difference to our world...Take the Power of Four and apply it to any and every area of your concern. Politics: Four votes swung from one hundred into another hundred is the difference between gaining control and losing clout. Culture: Two ticket buyers out of 50 can make a small, odd film profitable. Economics: By boycotting a product one consumer out of 25 can move that product to the back of the shelf, and eventually off it altogether. Four out of 100 is miniscule and yet can be the great lever of the Tipping Point. The Power of Four is the difference between helplessness and help....Help...and you will make a huge impact in the life of the street, the town, the country and our planet. If only one out of four of each one hundred of you choose to help on any given day, in any given cause-incredible things will happen in the world you live in...So do it. Make peace where it is precious. Help plant trees. Help embrace diversity and celebrate differences. Help stop gridlock. In other words, help solve every problem we face-every single one of them-with the Power of Four out of a hundred. Help and we will save the world. If we don't-it won't get done."

Its been awhile
Eyes have meaning
And reflection
Hidden scarcity
Forced duality
Potential blossoms
Roots anchor deeply
Connecting earth to sea
Sunsets and horizons
Colorful messages
Paint the skies so patiently
Healing Vibrations

Our cities, our technology and our
architecture give us the illusion of
controlling nature, when, in fact, it is
nature that controls us.

I had some energy work done in Vail recently by a wonderful intuitive healer...as we were beginning the Rheiki session I asked Art to pass along any interpretations or impressions he percieved coming from, or into me.
After a few minutes I could feel that the session was going well, and I relaxed easily into the moment under his spell... when he came to my heart his focus seemed to stay there quite awhile. I could feel it...but was trying to allow the energy tx to flow. Then he hesitated for a moment, then for one moment more...before letting me know his impression of my heart, was that it is hollow. I quickly confirmed and agreed in my reply, telling him my heart had been broken, and that 'space' is whats left behind, no quick fix for me, not even forward rolling time. Rather than complete it with 'superficial filling', I choose to embrace it this way and walk my path on a dime.
Now I've returned home...and am trying to plan my dream madly, with a years worth of thoughts and aspirations beginning to flow from me freely. That's when I came across a beautiful piece of land just minutes from town, nestled in a little hidden corner of the Crow Peak valley. So I pulled my car aside and deciding to take my explorations now by foot.
I followed rolling grass prairie dispersed with sage and yucca plants, and found a natural rock patio to lay for awhile take in some sun. Then down through the narrows and along a limestone ridge, leading into a Ponderosa Pine forest edged with humbling Scrub Oak stands. There were birds at play, singing song in every direction, and natures first flowers in bloom, a yellow confetti collection. The perimeter laced with broken mineral limestone, I knew that this place would soon be my home.
I continued my journey above the limestone rim, hopping over rocks, singing with the birds and taking in the wonderful forest air. Then I came upon an old bench set under a magnificent Pine tree, and I sat myself down to take in the view. I glanced to my right to say hello to the great tree, then into my stomach my heart did sink, when I saw that He too has a hollow central cavity.
Together we sighed, as if not knowing what to say, then relished in our connection taking note of the strong arms and new growth we both show 'up top'. I sat their looking into his fire cavity, most likely the result of one family picnic activity. I pondered for awile how to fill up the gap...thoughts of wood paste, and sawdust came to mind....I could use some leather staps to tie and make it bind. Mind you I can almost stand in the hole left behind...then I heard this tree speak the winning chime to me.
First scape away the dead 'tissue' from within me, leaving me open with my cavity exposed. Allow the sun cycle to shine down for one day, then fill me up with dark soil, limestone rocks and mineral to stay...then place two saplings on the outside for me to shelter and watch grow, use the leather straps to seal and secure their place within, and you'll begin to heal this hollow space left within me too.
This is where the first plans for hollow tree ranch were made..I have been looking for a place to harvest wood sustainably, build a green home and have my own furniture company. By using salvaged wood from the old homesteads and barns I tear down, I can use yesterdays logging to help sustain the forests here today.
With a connection like this, this tree and I can't be denied, and being called to this space...I will do all in my power to make this place 'ours' and I can't wait for the day I get to fill up Hollow Tree.

Okay, I guess I should explain where this comes from. I am right now reading several books that refer to 'the beginning time', the most significant two being The Bible, and an integral theory book by Ervin Laszlo, Science and the Akashic Field, An Integral Theory of Everything. For amatuer physicists out there I highly reccomend the latter of the two.
So my plan is to read, seek knowledge and guidance in my learning, and begin to understand what my intuition is telling me.
"When we recognize that "in-formation" (which for the sake of simplicity we shall write as "information") is a real and effective factor in the universe, we rediscover a time-honored concept-the concept of a universe that is made up neither of just vibrating strings, nor of separate particles and atoms, but is instead constituted in the embrace of continuous fields and forces that carry information as well as energy"
This piece of 'information' was taken from Scienc and the Akashic field. I believe that this is what I do when I channel, somehow tap into this intricate web of knowledge that surrounds us, we breath it in, then breath it out. We've done so without hesitation from the instant we were born...well okay, I may have needed just a little help, but have been happily imbibing air on my own ever since.
My goal here is to discover more about the power of thought, first starting at what I understand to be the basics and moving on from there.
*How do you measure thought?
Thought=Consciousness
Consciousness=Vibration
Vibration=Matter
Matter=Value
E=MC2 >> Thought E=matter x vibration2
Genesis 1:3
3 Then God said, "Let there be light" and there was light.
4 And God saw that the light was good; and God separated the light from the darkness.
From this I understand God or Creation to be the origination of human consciousness.
-creation of thought is the first thought, first thought energy
-first reflection is first realization
-first action/reaction
-first view of self
Genesis 1:6
6 Then God said, "Let there be an expanse in the midst of the waters, and let it separate the waters from the waters."
7 And God made the expanse, and separated the waters which were below the expanse; and it was so.
Ether: All pervasive space
For every vibration there is an equal/opposite tone. Mode, the firmament. As Above so Below, this means that for all vibrational systems there is an opposing force giving it (synchronistic) value, starts at the level of thought and must continue through all systems.
I think this is the origination of the 'informed universe' or akashic field. Now I must sit on it again..take some time to infuse.

I traveled to a bouldering area at the eastern edge of Wyoming today hoping that the beautiful blanket of snow that fell on the Black Hills over the weekend would be, if any, only a light trace over the prairie that surrounds the hills.
As I continued to drive to the west, I saw the blessings continue into a white horizon. My afternoon found me perched on top of a boulder in Wyoming, the pockets full of snow on my way up...not able to climb, and having nothing to return to, I decided that the best thing for me to do today was crawl up on this big rock in the sunshine and to pray.
I came out here to boulder
to frolic and to play.
But winters left her beauty
and snow is here today.
My heart it sinks in sadness
I'm looking forward to this so,
I'll have to find another way
to come and say hello.
My steps I make in wonder,
taking time wander
into this space I've come to ponder.
Waiting for the teacher to awaken
and the child to return,
I look upon this horizon
to listen and to learn.
I ask Dear God, Great Friend of mine, the Sun up in sky,
why is it I must be here,
upon this rock I cry.
My heart is full of sadness,
my destination so unclear.
Can You hear my cry today,
release me from my fear?
Your heart is full of sadness,
your destination not unclear,
you are where you are my child
because I need you here.
Well how can You keep track of me
in such a great vast space,
I may get lost so easily
roaming bout this place.
It's in the song of your heart my dear
and I'll never loose it's pace.
In the balance of the beat
is what makes you complete,
and My promise to you
I will never retreat.
But Father..
didn't You hear,
I did nothing else this day
but join with You here.
No sweat from my brow,
no debts have been paid,
I've climbed upon this rock,
I've sat and I've prayed.
I've left this here for you
sacred space to be treasured,
to bring you to the courage
to be love beyond measure.
This will help you leave today
with sadness but also clear,
that the path laid here before you
also comes with no fear.
As the sunset is upon us,
our time here drawing near,
please look ahead to tomorrow,
but let Me take the steer,
and you walk
just for today..
because there will always be a place for love
and time to run and play
...I now sit in a painted sandstone canyon watching the moonrise between the walls on my way home, I've pulled over to finish writing for the day. Her aura, mama moons, is painted as beautifully though the air as the canyon walls as they seem to flow together in this night. Loving my life today and wishing love to you too...Am
