First accused of being a Deep Thinker at age 8, I have always studied things others dismiss or ignore. By my teenage years I began having spiritual experiences which guided me away from people and situations that would have been harmful to me. Those experiences drove me to leave my family and friends behind and start a new and different kind of life from anything I'd seen before. After 40 years of study, prayer, and sincere begging for understanding about what happened in my past, I received several visions and spiritual experiences, including a karmic healing and visions of both past lives and future situations. Through regular meditation, I continue to experience an expanding consciousness, an awareness of energies, of time, and of a Greater Reality - of which very few are aware. Forty years of study: now I am really beginning to learn, and see that I have so much more to master. Behind me is the history of mankind's growth since first appearing on Earth. Below me is the wisdom of enlightened Masters. Above me are many realms we name Heaven. Beside me are my siblings, each walking their own path from darkness to light. About me swirls the energy of Life itself, its song in my mind reminding me to keep moving onward because this world is not what the 5 senses report. Before me is the reaping of my harvest, the seeds of my thinking and actions grown to maturity. Within me is a nexus, a meeting point of Time, Space, and Patience, forming a portal for Infinity. My Lord and God, the Christ within, guides me as I learn how to open that gateway so the Christ might express Light and Love in this physical universe, guides me as I learn how to become a worthy vessel for Infinity. It's clear to me now: Christhood is our Destiny. I can't turn away. I have so many experiences now that ignoring this just isn't possible for me. I'm not able to say, "MAYBE that's how the world works." or "Sure, in some life, I'll get there." What we call "the future" is created by the present: our choices, our actions, & especially our thoughts. Destiny does not BEFALL a person; every one of us creates our own future, and our Destiny. I choose to become an active agent in creating that future. It is my birthright as a son of the living god. I choose to become a Light, not cringe from the dark. I choose to stand, and to fly, not crawl upon the earth. I choose to lead, not follow. Its your destiny, too, and your birthright. Why not YOU? Sure, you can say,"Yea, if that's how it works, then some other life, I'll get there." Fine by me, each in their own way and time. Not everyone can face up to being responsible for EVERYTHING in their lives having been brought there by their own hand. Just remember there will always be some few who CAN'T do that any more: think well of us, pray for us. I'm thankful that here in Virginia Beach I've found others who feel as I do. And I'm thrilled that my wife finally understands her husband. I love you, Judi.
