Faith

What is the hardest thing in this world to find?
Is it truth? Eternal Youth?
Is there such a thing as eternal right? Infinite sight?
From where does fear originate? In ignorance?
Or is that the source of Bliss?

Are you looking for love in all the wrong places? Too many faces?
When all the cards fall into place does time abandon it's useless chase?
Fade to black

We ask the questions that none can answer yet some do
With earnest face and elder's cloak our guide gives us what we need
Teachers beget teachers and leaders tell us what we need to hear

Spotlight bottom left
Standing there regarding darkness the sage finds the answer
Tomorrow we shall all know where and why
Tomorrow we shall all know how to fly

Fast forward
Lights flash a million scenes a second, information overload
Who do you trust when tradition breaks down?
Where do we turn or just abandon hope?
Humanity needs divinity to justify what's right
but divinity is dying by degrees

If God is dead so too is faith and humanity is doomed
Unless we find the root of faith that predates the God Myth

What is the source?
We've gone from being dust to understanding dust.
Was that an accident? Is that all we are?
In the name of God most gracious and merciful
In and of all things
You for me and me for you
We'll do what's right and move forward
Trust in me and I'll trust in you
Faith

None can deny that we exist within a latticework of suffering; homelessness, addiction and poverty surround us, we're experiencing a suicide and mental health pandemic. The suffering touches everyone in some way, this begs the question, how does one go about easing suffering? Before we're able to address any of these issues individually, we must first ask ourselves, what's the root cause of so much suffering? In a word, dysfunction. The level of suffering is increasing, dysfunctional families have become the norm, the mental health pandemic is fueling ubiquitous self-medication in all stratum of our socioeconomic paradigm. Dysfunction begets dysfunction, how do we fight an onslaught which comes from with...

Diary Note

 My fears are not in my mind, my mind is a slave to my fears. I feel the rebound of my Spiritual highs, this feels like one, the lack of ethanol and caffeine dragging my psyche down. THC up, sitting in the library "listening" to the pressure in my heart, if feels like a web of tensions spreading across my back.  Years ago, when I first started to self-medicate, I was able to let my rational mind, this allowed me to perceive the sensation I was experiencing as a sentient presence which moved as my mind's eye espied it.  unfinished thoughts...
