Can You Feel It?

do countries have souls?  do countries have morals?  why is it that so many humans appear not to?  before there were even human beings and countries, did some spiritual being assign to that country certain tasks to complete as their evolution unfolded on Planet Earth?  are the inhabitants of some of those countries more intuitive, more intelligent, more aware, more kind, more compassionate and more sensitive to their environment, others, and events going on around them and throughout the world?  if so, why?  is the reason for so many different cultures on this Planet because a Supreme Being created each one with something special to offer?  why is it that we have so many who only know how to do evil?  is it in their genes?  why is it so difficult for those who speak the Truth to get the message out?  why do so many choose to ignore the message?  why do we have rascism?  why is there hate?  why do we legally murder our own species, without giving it a second thought, and blithely label it abortion?  why do we call ourselves civilized when clearly we are not?  why do we cheat on tests, on our wives, on our husbands?  why do we abuse others?  why do we lie?  why do we pick our noses?

we have been taught that we were given free choice in earthly matters.  we can do what's right or we can do what's wrong...it's our decision.  do you think that if a majority of bad decisions are made that they will slow down, alter, humanity's ascension?  do you even feel that humanity is ascending?  could you care less?  contrary to this, if a number of good decisions are made, do you believe this would help to promote humanity's ascension? 

are you in the slightest way, even interested in all of this?

Question:  where exactly are we going, anway? 

are things heating up on this Planet?  do you feel that bad is outweighing the good?  why is it that we are  all witnessing an increase in natural disasters and insane behaviour?

why is it that I get a feeling that some kind of malaise, spell, or world-wide drug overdose has infected us? 
we haven't gotten the message yet that this planet is just that...a planet.  That we are a miniscule part of a much larger picture.  That we are life-long members of a universe family and are only one of many, many other inhabitants.  This planet we inhabit has finite attributes....a molten core, magnetic poles, volcanoes and oceans, mountains and meadows and does produce violent weather (tornadoes, hurricanes, earthquakes, floods, droughts) that jolt our senses and test our resolve and resources.   Yet I believe that this Planet, placed just the right distance from a sun, with all the requirements to sustain life, was done by design and not by accident.   That these acts of nature are natural and cyclical.  Yet the intensity with which they have been occurring and the numbers leave one wondering whether this is some sort of wake up call for humanity....

I keep getting the feeling that something is going to happen.  Maybe because of all the unprecedented natural disasters happening.  Could these be a precursor?

"What is this 'something' you are referring to", you ask?

Answer:  I cannot tell you but I feel it getting closer.

It's like all that we knew or have known and depended upon is sifting, shifting and blowing away, like the grains of sand during a sandstorm.  Through the fury of the storm they are whipped up and carried over long distances, repositioning themselves into new dunes some distance away.  We cover our faces and squint through our eyes as the bits of sand grains sting our face.  We try very hard to keep our bearing and strain to see through all the dust and darkness, but we cannot.  It is only after the sandstorm subsides, that we may  remove our masks and look out upon a brand new landscape.  The old has passed away and a new vista now lies before us.                

are you an organized person?  do you stow your belongings right where they need to be, immediately, and with clockwork precision, hanging up your coat and putting your shoes in the closet shoe rack every time you come home? or are you used to functioning in a cluttered environment, you know....bills all over the dining room table, your jacket flung in the nearest chair, a refrigerator that needs to be re-possessed (because it is, possessed) and you still haven't found the time to change your bed sheets in months?  Your excuse and you are right...is because you have no time.  will you ever make the time?  will you take hold of your situation as you realize that you are running out of time and make a last ditch effort to change?  or, will you wait till the last minute?   will you be too late?  do you feel content knowing that things will never change, will always be the way you have always known them?  but what if things do change and change dramatically?  you have no control over this as it is something that is out of your control.  how will you react?  will you panic, run and hide?  will you grab a firearm?  check on your neighbor?  call your Rabbi, Priest or Pastor?  will you drop to your knees and pray?  will you tremble?  will you go into shock?  will you weep?  or will you crawl into that foxhole you've been eyeing for some time and pull the grass and dirt over your head?  

no one knows how they will respond or react in a crisis.  for each one of us, when that time comes, it will be a very personal experience.

are you prepared?  do you have a supply of water, MREs, an emergency radio, flashlights, canned goods?

do you live in a high rise or in a rural community?

what will you do if there is no power?  do you have a backup emergency generator?

will you know how to get in touch with your kids, your loved ones and will you have an emergency plan of escape, just in case you need to leave your home?

there is something coming and I wish I was able to see all the way down to the bottom of the Rabbit Hole, but I cannot.

last night I had a dream in which I was standing next to a beautiful, tall and magnificent bird.  It was an owl.    He was brown with light tan streaks.  He purposely looked down at me and I remember thinking..."I know that look, I've seen it before".  it reminds me of someone I know but I cannot recall at this point who that person is.  Maybe it will come back to me.  

I remember trying very hard to study his face but it seemed like he didn't want me to do this.  He kept turning away from me as I was straining to see him.

I was standing right next to him and he was standing flat with talons outstretched and flattened out, not perched on anything (which I thought was odd) on what appeared to be a wide plank of weathered wood, a light gray in color.  As I stood there, pivoting the upper half of my body, trying to get a closer look at his face, he took off and in so doing, dug one set of talons into my arm.  I remember cradling my arm and looking to see how badly I'd been gouged.  But, there did not appear to be any marks and I did not feel any pain. 

To sum it up.....do you believe in God?

i believe, at this point in time, that this should be the most important question of all.
