The near death experience of Nancy Rynes

A real place in our Dreams

There is a place where we belong, beyond our imagination and beyond all reason.

Generational Wealth: A Last Will and Testament

Consider a Community Garden – Texas Tropical Blog

Is generational wealth a good thing?

So many have told me stories of how their happy family fell apart, when the time arrived to consider an inheritance from one who came before. The first story I remember is Jacob and Esau (Genesis 25).

Genesis 25:26 states that Esau was born before Jacob, who came out holding on to his older brother’s heel, as if he was trying to pull Esau back into the womb so he could claim the birthright as the first born. So, the issue seems to be of Biblical proportion, written in the Word from the beginning.

I am more blessed than I’ve ever been to have my own home. Though, it’s still pretty much a wash to zero, except for 4 months equity, and that’s likely zero, too, after what I charged to my credit card to plant my own very small garden. The only time there’s been an Insurance Policy on my life, was Officer’s Insurance when I worked for a bank over 20 years ago. (That even seems odd now, comparing the amount to the salary I was paid. What did they intend to cover with the money?)

I wonder if we are all worth more dead than alive for most of our lives… except for the time we can work, traded by corporations for the bottom dollar.

Generational wealth is the primary source of advantage over one and another in the world that Human created. We were once closer to being equal, and now the billionaires own the world, while the rest of us are just slaves from 9 to 5 (if we’re lucky).

Looking Forward to Time

Blue hour by Marianna Bucina Roca in Gloucester, Massachusetts

The Blue Hour

I contend that the Blue Hour is the most beautiful Time of the Day.
I went to bed early and had the most beautiful dream,
though I can’t remember a beginning or the end.
I only remembered there is Always something greater.

Creating our Dreams isn’t so much about being Wise
as it is the taking a next Logical step,
if we’re always looking to the bigger picture.
One always leads to another.

The Truth stands on every scale.

Where two are united as One in Divine Trinity,
they always create another Higher One.
It’s the Same Below as it is Above.

The New Seed of our Self is born to create a Higher One.
By Divine Design, the Perfection of a Newborn Child
will follow the same journey
out of Darkness to the Light.

We are born before we can See the Details of the biggest picture.
It takes Time.

We are always waiting for a Time to come.
On the Universal scale all Time is One.
ALL Divine Ones have the potential to be more
than can ever meets the eye.

The most Common Question humans ask is
“What Time is it?” – the first question of the day.
But do we ever question the question?
“What Time do I want it To Be?”

I’m grateful that every Human Being was given the question
to know the Most Beautiful Creation of all.
Everyone can realize the Answer, equal to every other.
Every Living One, Conscious to Question
can know Time.

Time is even more beautiful than the Blue Hour.
One is equal to the Other for the Blessing To Know
Time goes on Forever.

I’m grateful for Dreams,
the Blue Hour within,
Time to See a Beautiful Time Above,
where all things are possible.

I look forward to the Time
when there’s Nothing left to do
but Dream the Beauty of Tomorrow.

Somewhere beyond Today,
we’ll Know the Mystery.
It’s only a matter of Time.

The Time I want to be is
the Moment when the next Higher Question
reveals itself again,
from a Higher realm Above.

It’s only Logical that the Time ahead
can only be more Beautiful
than the Time Before.
When we see something we’ve seen before
isn’t it only more beautiful when seen again
for the First Time, After?

We’ve seen the Sunrise a thousand times before.
Yet, the One we See Tomorrow
is more beautiful
for what it means,
another beginning.

In the Blue Hour
I wanted Time to stand still.
But, it doesn’t last for an hour.
You can only see it for about 30 minutes.

My Dream for the future is
to wake again in the early hour of Night,
before the Human Dream of Tomorrow,
before there is a Beginning,
before I’ve Dreamed another end.

Who but a Supreme Lord of Creation could imagine something as beautiful as this? (Source)

Wash your feet

by Merrill Leonard


Everything was perfect with me when I was 4 years old on a family vacation in Colorado, and we ALL will be, forever, when we Receive the Divine Truth from Above.

For ALL the ones I love…

We’re ALL wounded warriors. There’s no way to live in the world below without bearing the burden of a stain on the Light we bore in our beginning. Our greatest disservice to one another is to turn away another for the Truth of ALL of us. I bear that stain from my past.

Our Greatest Service to our Self, is to Offer our Self with NO CONDITIONS to the One Above. Accept the scar that only you can see. Turn to the One for a Divine Healing, and let it go for a Divine Reason we could never dream of, for how our burden can be turned into our Highest Blessing of Love.

We’ve reached the end of this orbit, a long journey of 260 days. At the end of every pilgrimage of Spirit, it’s Time to wash the dust off our feet.

May we all wash our feet and anoint them with precious oil, to step with purity into the Life of Unconditional Love we were meant to Receive, Above and Below.

May we love one another as we are… the way of the Hero within.

Matthew 10:13-15
21st Century King James Version
13 and if the house be worthy, let your peace come upon it; but if it be not worthy, let your peace return to you.

14 And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear your words, when ye depart out of that house or city, shake off the dust of your feet.

15 Verily I say unto you, it shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrah in the Day of Judgment than for that city.

What’s the Meaning of Life?

The Question of Our Life

by Merrill Leonard


The Meaning of Life is Humanity’s question for Time Eternal. All the signs and symbols were given to see. All the ways we look to see the Truth are secondary to the Question that weighs heavy and we really want to know. We all hold the same Dream for our Life on Earth. We just want to be happy and know there is reason for us to be. And for tomorrow, we hope we’re included in a promise of Heaven.

There’s only one tangible way to know we matter on Earth. The Elders say that ALL things want to be Seen and Acknowledged. We want to know someone will remember. The way to claim the Offering of Life, Love, and Happiness is to be a witness to Love that lies in every Heart.

The Summer Solstice is a Sign of Light to See. We were given 3 days to know the Highest Truth. We always make wiser choices when we allow at least 3 days Time to See and Know.
