Death is coming

The closer death creeps up upon me the less I am able to understand the reasons for life or living.

Yes I have experienced a close family member dying and unlike television it takes decades to handle such a thing. To think I am going to put my family through such a thing when I finally leave is more horrific to me than the thought of death itself.

My life was and is still a learning experience but when all said and done what am I to do with all this accumulated learning over my lifetime if I just die. There is no logic or reason to this.

Long ago I became aware that the God story that is sold to the majority is just a nice story to give mankind with a message of a basic layout of how nice life could be if everyone followed these ideas. Not many in life do and if one thinks about it the good and evil structures actually depend on each other. The good that can be experienced in life is only understood as good when there is it's opposite to compare it to. This is not rocket science only common sense in reality. I am not saying we need to experience bad but understanding in it is needed to appreciate the great things many of us can have in our lives. From birth to death there are many ways mankind helps his fellow man. How many ways can you help?

Your Compassion Will Only Be Complete When...

By Evan Sanders


You will find peace in touching and soothing your deepest wounds. You will find your true self. You will find who you were meant to be.

It's completely okay to not be okay.

Because sometimes, it really isn't okay.

There are going to be situations in life where you're really not fine and even more importantly, you don't have to pretend that you're fine.

We are all human and therefore that makes us open to wounding. it's a great tragedy to pretend that you are beyond being hurt.

This is truly what makes us all completely unique and special.

While we all have different lives, we all suffer in very similar ways and all have cuts and bruises on our hearts.

Life would be very boring if there weren't any opportunities to get hurt. But that's what makes life worth living - the ability to risk for the reward and to recover when we lose.

Be real as all hell. Be authentic. Be every last inch of yourself and never stray from your path.

Don't cheat yourself by pretending to be someone or something you're not. Your heart knows the difference between the real you and the fake you. Every time you try to fake it you create chaos within yourself.

True healing is done when you decide to take serious amounts of love and compassion to your deepest wounds. You have to be willing to go to the deepest darkest corners of your heart where you are hurting badly and gently touch those wounded places.

Avoiding this journey will pretty much guarantee that you will suffer for the rest of your life.

Every single day you have to be willing to confront your deepest fears and be willing to heal the wounds that are asking for your attention.

This journey won't be the easiest journey of all, but it will be worth it. Because when you finally dive in, you're going to be able to truly see for the first time that all of the dancing shadows of your fears were just shadows and nothing truly real.

Don't worry about heading into the dark tunnel of fear...

Because you are the light. You will always be the light.

And you will illuminate everything around you.
