There are two kinds of people in the World, those who are ENLIGHTENED and those that are not. Only a Path toward ENLIGHTENMENT can be shown and you have continued to do this task.
Those that have gone on have left here, have not turned away from the Fire, but siimply saw their own reflection of their TRUTH staring back at them in the embers.
Once having visited this Fire one can travel far and wide and yet never be able to forget its Warmth.
We should be pleased that "Those that Be" had chosen to try and crush this little family of ours. That in itself is Great proof of what we are trying to do is a Great Truth and therefore---Feared. TRUTH has ALWaYS been the downfall of EVERY Corrupt Civilization...
We must continue, as before, to count our Collective blessings or, if we are not careful, someone Else will be counting them for us. Remember those that Can-Do and those that Can't---become Elected Officials.
There are many forms of Impotentcy but the Worst kind is the Impotentcy of Spirit. Our mutual ancestors may be accused of Many things but we would Not be having this conversation if they had not assumed the Inititive to stand up for what they believed.
Our Electronic World has spawned a Generation of "SecretHeroes" that appear and disappear at will. Facing "TRUTH" and sustaining your gaze is akin to looking upon the Face of Creator---the Sun---or a Child. None of the three will accept Anything but the "TRUTH".
The Ebb and Flow of the Tide of Life is Written upon the sand. It comes and it goes but it Shall come Again. What seeds that have been sown will sprout, in the NOT too distant future, believe me, Mi Motech.
It has been said that "It is as plain as the nose upon your face," but we were NOT able to SEE that nose until you showed it to us in the reflection of your eyes and heard it in the beating of your heart. It just happens that some "GhostChildren" did not like what they saw or heard there---which is "TRUTH"...

Holding Their Eyes Is Not Hard To Do, Supporting The Neck That Holds The Gaze Is My Concern.... Free Health Care Is Actually No Care Of Health. This I Have Come To Understand Well.
Enlightenment=Healing Harm From Life Experience+Spirit=The Foot Falls Upon The Path Of Discovery.
This Winter Is Testing My Bones: This Fire Is Starting Warm Them.....When I Am More Focused I Will Write More.....The GhostChild.

Dear Motech,
Just knowing that YOU are there IS enough. YOU deliver and others DIGEST and that is the full content of the matter.
If a table gathers DUST one does NOT blame the table in order to absolve one's OWN responsibility in the matter.
YOU need to recharge your Spiritual battery and leave the "Driving to US", to quote the 21st Century Profit---Prophet err, I forget.
How about these "short paragraphs"---do they work for YOU? lol.
NOW is the Winter of our discontent which will bear the harbingers of a NEW Spring.
As long as you have (1) person to cover your back then ALL is Well in this world. And, YOU know there IS more than one willing and able to do this at this Fire.
REST, Recharge, Re-evaluate, Begin anew with FRESH EYES in which to guide us along this weary Path.

"Those that have gone on have left here, have not turned away from the Fire, but siimply saw their own reflection of their TRUTH staring back at them in the embers."
Thank you LightSeeker, for saying so eloquently what I could not. So many times in my life, I have failed when trying to get someone to even see a different path, much less walk it. Maybe they were on one that led to destruction. Of themselves....or others. Or a way of life filled with unnecessary pain.....In that "present" I failed. How could I know what future held? How could I know that so many years later, they called, or I saw them somewhere, and they thank me...yes! Thank me, for what I had done, said.....or not done or said. Told me that although they had left, I never left them. That the Mirror that I had held up had stayed with them. They remembered, and were guided by the reflection of their own Truth in it.
Being a Catalyst is most difficult. So often the results of one's own work and pain are not evident to us quickly enough to suit our longing natures. We see oursleves as having failed in our work, when in reality, we have not failed at all, we have just not been entirely successful Yet. How many more units of time will it be, before we see the tangible Manifestation of our Labors? Weeks? Decades? Centuries? Whose Time is this anyway, that we should be so impudent and impatient? I can stomp my foot, but what am I crushing when I do that? Will repeated stomping damage the bone, ligament? Make a cripple of me? Would Creator be better served if I did what I could, set the pot on to boil, so to speak, and meanwhile busied myself with another task while the contents heated? Doesn't Grannie keep an eye on the Fire, and the Pot, while she takes the meal down to make the bread?
My own leaving allowed me to help create something that is much needed, and long overdue. It has not come to pass yet, although it is part way there. I had to have distance in order to see clearly what to do. I could not see the Forest for the Trees, so to speak, and was conflicted in my own mind, and although my heart stayed, Spirit encompassed, my mind and body had to be absent.. Forgive me for being so cryptic, but I cannot speak of it in any detail until it is all done. Soon, I hope.
Not all progress is Linear. We keep walking.

Dear WindWalker,
Thankyou for being you. I happened to notice, just after your return, that under your name it states---member 143. This is perhaps a clue of what is part of your Anxiety or "rush" to accomplish the task at hand. 143 in Morse Code symbolizes- I love you---I=1 and 4=love and 3=you. Some of us LOVE just a bit more intensly than those WE wish to receive it. Think about it.
Creator wears NO wristwatch so it is rather irrelevant any way you look at it. Time---IS---and Never was. There has only been the ONE day, to Creator, from the beginning of "the Day". Man separates Day from Night and from that moment commences "Work" which leads to frustration which leads to sacrifice which leads to doubt which leads to pain then ultimately to satisfaction then back to doubt which leads to frustration and MORE work and let the Circle be unbroken.
Patience and Virture are TWO goddesses that Man (male type) never ceases to pursuse but never quite comprehends. EGO is the Nemisis of MAN. I live by the "Johnny Appleseed" credo---"Chuck the Seeds in the ground---give them a good stomp for security and walk on."
What you have lived, WindWalker, and accepted as "the norm" is, unfortunately LightYears ahead of many you have tried to reach. The burdon, unfortunately, falls upon your shoulders and yours alone to bear. Be JOYOUS in the reality of the moment for it IS a GIFT as well as a CURSE that you have been chosen to bear.
Just know that Walking on the Wind is NO easy feat in itself and bestowing wisdom on others is like packing sand into a rathole---it can be done but takes one hell of an effort and a LOT of TIME. YOU have the TIME---work on the PATIENCE...

Blessed Be the Fathers who teach the daughters patience. Mine started me young, and I am still working. Though many remark that they don't know where I get mine, in a tone of voice that makes me think they think I have quite a bit of it. It's what makes the horses like me too, I am eager for them to teach me how to be more so.
What task do you perceive me rushing? I mostly feel no sense of time pressure. Oh, I slave to being at work at the specified made up hands on the face of the clock time, but mostly I am free to live according to what needs be done in Creator's Flow. The only sense of urgency I feel is to be prepared to ride this particular Eddy in the Wind as long as I am supposed to.....Cling to Turtle's back as long as I can, in the face of what the Destroyers are doing. So I save my seeds, sow them when the dirt gets warm, and stomp them gently, for the tilth is Good. I have been Seen by Those Who See, in Bearskin, and been told that I have been killed by being smothered. With a board.......so I think I'm going to be around for another little while! In what shape and consciousness, we shall See.
So now I know why my eye kept being drawn to 143. The thinking is: that is why I mostly live alone. One must have a lot of strength, combined with simplicity, to hang with me for long, it seems. lol, some of my best friends are Terrier Dogs and Horses.
My burden, as you call it, is not so heavy! It is others who bear the weight of themselves, not me. My Brothers and Sisters feel light as a feather. I do not accept the weight. I only walk beside. When I take the Baggage, to give the carrier a respite, a space to think, and feel, only the idea of the burden is transferred, and making that light is Child's Play. And if I am inattentive, and get some weight, a good Howling usually sends it fleeing.

How I Missed The Flow Of Your Words Wrapped In The GreatMystery That Is In You. I Would Be Wrapped In Vales Of Blue Sequins On Cold And Rainy Days Of The Heart And Mind If I Could Not Be Free To Write In The Manner Of The GoodHearted And The GoodMinded, That Is What I See Your In SpiritWords, Ebb And Flow Of Higher Thoughts.
It Is True: I Fell Behind The Great Weight Of It: Only Able To See All Negative Potential Of It: Without The Ability For A Time To Write The Way To Change It. Yes Spiritually: Without The Conliberals And Liberalservitives And The Republicats And The Democrins...To Lead Them Away From Harming The Rest Of Us....
OldBones It Is True: I Need To Recharge And See Those Whom See Me. (Iowasca Is A Natural Plant Used Specifically To Help The Seer's And The Knower's: See And Know Farther. It Is Only Done Under The Careful Eye Of Medicine Elders And Shaman.) I Was Honored To Be Asked.
Here By The GrandFatherTree: There Is No Stimulus: No Excitement: No Sensuality: No Hope: No Happiness: No Value And No Return On No Investment Made: Somehow Still Leads PERSON'S To Believe They Can Take The Right To Maximum Enforcement When....Everything IS Of Nothing: And More And More Of That To Go Around.
The People Are PERSON'S: Seemingly So Caught And Dazzled By The Limitations Of The Jurisdiction Imposed: They Can Not Even Come Forward In A Good Way Towards Open Discussion Of What They Can Not Live With. They Ridicual All That Could Help Them Up To The Higher Ground.
Now Does It Make Sense The Creator Would Have Me Wait Here: Naked And Still Believing There Is Time: There Is Hope: And If The Imposed Jurisdiction Affords You Nothing Of Everything And Everything Of Nothing....
Then You Must Create Your Own Or Be No Better: That Is Manifest Destiny In A Good Way: As Long As You Remember Who's Land This Is And Learn What Made For The Way It Is: And Question The Hell Out Of IT: Until You Can Hold The Eyes Of Beast ITself. The Hard Part Is Resting Your Eyes Without Looking Away....

Sun Use To Call Me "Bulldozer" Now He Calls Me "All Pacients" Now His Impacients Has Lead Him To Switch Roles And He Is Now The One With His Nose To The Ground Pushing Everything Out Of His Way.
Pacients Or Is That Patients? Is Like The Rock Beside The Sappling, Waiting For It To Grow To Become The Tree: Shelter From The Sun: Slowing The Violence Of Rain: For The Day To Come That One Of Us Sit Upon It: And We Smile At Thought Of The Rock And The Tree And We....The GhostChild.
