these are deeply spiritual beliefs and it
does hurt when they are mocked and made fun
of. i know that it is impossible to put it
into words (the true Tao is the Tao that
cannot be named) so that any attempt to
write it down is fair game...but no matter
what anyone says, i know there is a ball
of light somewhere deep in my soul that
does somehow understand and will never let
go. i just wish it could grow and grow
and grow until living things could look
into my eyes and understand it without
even exchanging a word. i have met people
like that, many of them at rainbow gatherings.
the most powerful interactions i have has
with people have often been, on the outside,
nothing more that the exchange of smiles.
at these moments, i realize that there is
something greater than the physical, 3+1
dimensional reality that most of us are
trapped in.
to a certain extent, words keep us down in
a lower / physical reality so i don't even know
if i am doing any good by writing this.
it's just impossible to look into someone's
eyes with a computer, so i decided to give
it my best shot. for a long time, though,
there wasn't really anything i could say.
of course the terrible things that happen
are real. of course we can't just ignore
them. one of the hardest things i've had
to learn is that the bad things are part
of a greater good, for they help us learn,
grow and evolve. i know that i have a long
ways to go. sometimes people do not learn
from the bad things so they must continue
to happen. pretty soon some really bad things
with start happening, but eventually humankind
will learn the lessions it needs to learn.
it kind of sucks, though, because many of us
have already learned these lessions. the
really bad things would be unnecessary if
people just stopped, listened and thought a
bit -- the answers are already here!
RAINBOW IS THE ANSWER! (Unfortunately it gets
a bit more complicated because we've already done
damage to the earth that must now be undone.)
I Love You All Very, Very Much!

PS Please don't call me Ed...I'm gonna try to
change what it says on that line that gives
a name or something.
