The Tree That Bent Down To Kiss The Children

Perhaps you have a tree like this in your town.

In the park in my city there is an old oak tree that grows downward, instead of up to the sun.

Like a grandmother picking up children to place them on her knees, the heavy limbs of that tree's bark is worn smooth by children who climb her day after day year after year.

Every limb is just the right size to sit or lay or put your arms around. She bends gracefully in a way that any child can rest or stretch or hold her in an embrace.

You can stay there unafraid, wrapped peacefully in her arms. And no matter what's troubling you, she will dry your tears.

Full up to overflowing is my admiration for this tree who is so in love she's bending down to kiss the children

Wow, that is beautiful! That is this tree's Calling in life-- to be a bridge for those below it--to reach for them so they can reach higher.

Multi Dimensional Reality

The world as you know it - all that you see, taste, feel and touch, comprises only about 5% of all of the stuff of the universe. The other 95% is what we have considered "nothing" or the "firmament"  or dark matter or the heavens or mystic Other Worlds. This 95% is multi-dimensional and consists of potential realities that may be perceived.

A single thought...a mere whisper, ...... barely upon a breeze that catches a spark... all is tinder before the firestorm... and yet.
ONLY that whisper
ONLY that thought
 the world is forever changed beyond the fears and dreams of cardboard men.
Freedom and change starts within:
It is encouraged by truth and courage of people who love
Built by the respect of true beings standing as one before each other.
Lets us cross every man made borders
without fear stare into eyes and hearts of all our brothers and sisters: within our words without shouting,or force to hold each to our truths; and let us without fear freely share what works...
