Start, Wage, Loving: For Joy Serve Soul In Solidarity

"Jesus' Teaching: There are 2 Families - The Hearts/Givers, and The Tumors/Takers. Of which Family are you? Really?" SL

I've spent this Christ-mass week immersed in the words of Jesus, line by line, over and over.

This is what I've found. This is a very big advance in clarity for me:

"Jesus' Teaching is this:

There are 2 Families -

Health's Life "Givers"
(The HEARTS/GIVERS:
Gandhi, King,
Teresa, Eleanor Roosevelt,
Diane Wilson, Col. Ann Wright,
William Thomas...)

or,

Cancer's Life "Takers"
(The TUMORS/TAKERS:
Trump, Bill Gates, Bill Clinton,
Tom Buchannan (Great Gatsby),
Skimpole (Bleak House)....).

Of which family are you?
Really?

Your Soul depends on
the right answer.

SALVATION'S entirely about which
Family you end up in; WE end up in."

Perception

...something to think about...

Washington, D.C.

Metro Station on a cold January morning ...

The man with a violin played six Bach pieces for about 45 minutes.. During that time approx. two thousand people went through the station, most of them on their way to work.

After three minutes a middle aged man noticed there was a musician playing. He slowed his pace and stopped for a few seconds and then hurried to meet his schedule.

4 minutes later:
The violinist received his first dollar: a woman threw the money in the hat and, without stopping, continued to walk.

6 minutes:
A young man leaned against the wall to listen to him, then looked at his watch and started to walk again.

10 minutes:
A three-year old boy stopped but his mother tugged him along hurriedly. The kid stopped to look at the violinist again, but the mother pushed hard and the child continued to walk, turning his head all the time.
This action was repeated by several other children. Every parent, without exception, forced their children to move on quickly.

45 minutes:
The musician played continuously. Only six people stopped and listened for a short while. About 20 gave money but continued to walk at their normal pace... The man collected a total of $32.

1 hour:
He finished playing and silence took over. No one noticed. No one applauded, nor was there any recognition.

No one knew this, but the violinist was Joshua Bell, one of the greatest musicians in the world. He played one of the most intricate pieces ever written, with a violin valued at $3.5 million dollars.

Two days before Joshua Bell sold out a theatre in Boston where the seats averaged $200.

This is a true story. Joshua Bell playing incognito in the metro station was organized by the Washington Post as part of a social experiment about perception, taste and people's priorities.

The questions raised: in a common place environment at an inappropriate hour, do we perceive beauty? Do we stop to appreciate it? Do we recognize talent in an unexpected context?

One conclusion reached from this experiment could be this: If we do not have a moment to stop and listen to one of the best musicians in the world, playing some of the finest music ever written, with one of the most beautiful instruments ever made... How many other things are we missing?

Jesus had Peter had quite a go round on this:

'Peter, do you Love (agape) me?"
"I love you like you were my brother (filios)."

Hmmmmm. "PETER, DO YOU LOVE ME?!?!?!?"

Jesus had to ask twice more.

Imagine if we eliminated words like cyanide,
nitrogen, carbon dioxide... and only had the
word Oxygen for all gas. That would be a problem.

Well we have a MUCH bigger problem. We only,
CARELESSLY use the world Love for:

Universal Love
Lust
Sex
Desire
Friendship
Acquantainceship
One night stands
Pleasurableness
Blood relationships
Romance
Reciprocal relations.....

Love is Universal OR IT IS NOT LOVE.

The ENTIRE point of the Gospels / Jesus life: One Father, we're ALL ONE FAMILY, NO DOUBLE STANDARDS, GET ON WITH IT.

The ENTIRE point of the Gospels / Jesus life:

One Father, we're ALL ONE FAMILY,
NO DOUBLE STANDARDS,, EVER, GET ON WITH IT.

We killed Jesus for telling us this. We hated Him for it.
And for 1900 years we've been killing ourselves to
make anything and everything else BESIDE THIS
the point of His teachings. And now it is almost too
late for us to get it right.

It is up to me. It is up to YOU now. We are the last chance.

CJ - I GIVE YOU TWO COMMANDMENTS:

1. Devote your life entirely to the will of Our One Father

2. Devote your life entirely to the Least of These in
Our One global Family - ESPECIALLY the poor,
ESPECIALLY the enemy, ESPECIALLY the foreigner.

There is NOTHING BESIDES THIS in Jesus' Teachings.
Everything else was embellishment, clarification,
emphasis and support.

This is the Law and the Prophets.

Embracing THIS, THAT WE ARE ALL IMMEDIATE FAMILY,
THAT WE ARE ALL BROTHERS AND SISTERS...

THIS ALONE IS SALVATION -
A. PERSONAL SALVATION from a Joyless, Meaningless Life,
B. COLLECTIVE SALVATION from Global Civilization Collapse.

THERE IS NO OTHER SALVATION. EVER. PERIOD.

GOOD NEWS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

JOYFUL NEW YEAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Shari - is She why I'm here? OMG

What an incredibly sacred encounter. Half an hour maybe.

She's 19ish maybe? Today she returns to China from her
6 months exchange program.

Stunning. Kind. Thoughtful. Open. Informed. Wondering.
Mature. Concerned for the world. Inquisitive. Smart. Educated....

She asked it all. She grasped it all - that I have to offer.
We discussed the various human rights movements. She
totally gets - she emphasizes to me - the determination
of the Chinese Gov. to prevent dissent. She sees the
impossibility of resisting - trying to improve human rights
in China. BUT SHE SEES THAT WISELY, NOT RECKLESSLY,
MAKING THE ATTEMPT IS LIFE ITSELF.

A really fun, brief part of our exchange - as she and I were
sitting cross legged and talking, a group of Chinese
tourists came and went - and Shari said - "Do you care
about what people say about you?" Well, I told her
that everyone that comes through the park is my
brother or sister, but that most are waking dead, so dead
that I know that either they will not "see" me, or they'll think
I'm an idiot, or whatever. But the 1 in 10,000 like her -
she is why I am here. "Well," she said, "the Chinese
that were just here were saying that you work for the
government, a fake, to show that people in the US have
the ability to bring about change, when they really don't."
We both laughed heartily. Knowing it is true, if we
continue to let it be.

I worry for her.

She will not forget our encounter.

She now lives in me, and I in her.

"I'm going to go back to China and try to make it a
better place," she said with unmistakable clarity.

We both are changed.

OMG.

YAHOO!!!!!!!! Start's off line!!!!! [for a while] :-)

Hi!

Well, not completely off line, but sort of in a cave.
Yes, my Vigil work continues but mentally I'm in a hugely
different focus for a time.

I will continue to use this lull in DC Political activity to
devote as much uninterrupted time to matters of the Spirit,
as possible - studying and responding to the Words
and Works of Christ Jesus.

You may or may not see bursts of activity on the
Spiritual Front from me, but on the Climate Change,
Health Care, Global Issues front I'm not even looking
beyond the major headlines.

I don't expect to return to normal in that regard till
after New Years.

Your Loving brother,

DON'T MISS. My friends, you must meet our sister Nancy. Christlike Shero Nancy.

Nancy, just a bit younger than me, lives in rural West Virginia.

A month or so she was beaten for intervening on behalf of a 90
year old neighbor who was being thrown out of her home by her
son who is after her money. Then Nancy was threatened with
arrest thanks to the politically connected son.

She rescues animals of all sorts, some of whom other neighbors
torture cuz it tortures Nancy. They want the animals, including
bears, out there to be killed, not with Nancy and friends where
they can be protected.

At times her life is threatened.

She takes her witness of Universal Love into area churches who
adore her and her singing, until they realize she's the Real Deal,
Truly Christlike, and then they persecute her.

There's more, but it is all out of the same cloth. "If you pick up
your cross...." "Love as I have Loved." CJ She does.

Yup. Christlike Nancy.

DON'T MISS her Christ-mass message to us:

"Subject: Season of LIGHT is Season of LIFE..Season of LOVE..THE LIGHT ! My message to you.... "Family" is this... Christmas to ME is known as the
" season of LIGHT..." When Jesus was born "WISE" men noticed a SHINING
STAR.. IT LED THEM THROUGH THE DARKNESS to this amazing sight and
PRESENT( Ultimate gift ) TO THE UNIVERSE... JESUS ! I am a believer, but in
being a believer I comprehend that MY FAMILY IS ALL INCLUSIVE.. ALLELUIA !!
I have Moslem brothers and sisters , sons and daughters etc and I have
Jewish, Hindu, Buddhist,etc family, along with Christians and even NON
believers in my family. The KEY !? Ahhhhh... the "KEY" is the gift we give
ourselves to accept what that infant in that manger was born to bring and
teach us more about... the ULTIMATE "POWER OF ONE" ! TO BE LOVING !!!
Look at the healthy POWER humans can CHOOSE to have... LOVE is STRENGTH
and COURAGE and TRUTH.. HOPE... PEACE... GOD !!! GOD IS LOVE... :-)
"ALL-MIGHTY" "ALL POWERFUL".... What it all boils down to is this... What
and how we choose to think and WHERE our thoughts come from.. HERE
AGAIN... "THE KEY" ! :-) Our hearts and souls are meant to be BANKS... CREDIT
UNIONS.... INVESTMENT BROKER CENTER....GENUINE PERSONAL/SPIRITUAL :-)
AND MOST POWERFUL "HEALTH INSURANCE"... :-) Affects OUR HEALTH ( spiritual,
mental AND physical) as well as the world around us ! The LIGHT can live within
us... the LOVE that can conquer ALL... the POWER TO USE "TRUTH" TO NOT
ONLY SET US FREE... BUT THE "LIGHT", "LOVE" ! Walking the Walk is worth it
family... its worth it... sometimes we feel drained, frustrated, disgusted, discouraged..
etc... So THEN.. WE REACH OUT... TO THE LIGHT ! We are ONE.. those of us that
UNDERSTAND our mission here... let us continue to march WITH LOVE IN THE
LIGHT AND LIVE !! BRIGHTLY... LOVINGLY... TRUTHFULLY...UNITED IN PURPOSE...
AND HOPE.. MERRY CHRISTMAS ! HAPPY HOLIDAYS ! EACH DAY OF OUR LIVES
CAN BE AFFIRMATIONS OF OUR TRUE PURPOSE... remember the "POWER OF ONE"...
Just imagine the POWER that tiny baby boy had in that stable manger so long ago...
and when we greet our family on the streets and when we touch one another and
think thoughts of LOVE and PEACE we are reminded of the GLORY and POWER of
LOVE... That infant... THE PRINCE OF PEACE.. is right with us.. every step of the
way.... SHINE !!!!!!

LOVE YOU,

Nancy"

---- and see here the "corrections" from Nancy in what I wrote of her-----

Oh bless you my brother- Let me correct the area I live in.. I am actually in Virginia- Surrounded by RICH "conservatives" :-). The fact GOD planted me here is pretty amazing. I am 72 miles West of DC in the Piedmont Valley surrounded by the Blue Ridge Mtns. I am only 45 mins from Charlottesville and 45 mins from Warrenton. The work I have done for "pay" has always been human service work,but since compassion and respect for creation is all relative I have been blessed to understand the connection with respecting and loving all beings. The other side of that is my RESPONSIBILITY to be a VOICE for the VOICELESS... So many people never understand when I tell them that I work with HUMANS along with the animals.. that HAVE NO VOICE OR CHOICE. I find in this area among the wealthy (the LOST) that so often the "RURAL POOR" are the WEALTHY ONES... I try to assist some of my brothers and sisters here to grab hold of their COMPASSION they have developed from STRUGGLING.. and let THAT COMPASSION be their STRENGTH ! OH MY !!! THE POWER COMPASSION CAN HAVE... By the way-- the Black Bear poaching is BIG- The black market for Bear parts has the mafia behind it.. The parts are said to be used in Chinese Medicine ( gall bladder and paws of the bears ) Wealthy suits and tie types pay these mountain men to TAKE the bears and the parts.. So the SUITS get richer and the Mtn men fall more into the darkness.. I have seen some miracles tho ! lol I have one amazing story of a man that had put a gun to my head over a bear he had in leg hold trap.. WE ARE NOW FRIENDS... and I helped him prepare for his GED and he passed !!!!! ( 3 yrs ago ) Point is... LOVE CONQUERS ALL... and SOMETIMES-- we need to use TOUGH LOVE... but always laced with some compassion and understanding... no matter what.. The mountains are beautiful and I hope you all can come and visit and spend a day taking in the gifts of nature here.. LOVE YOU
