WHO SAYS WE ARE NOT THE ALIENS?
PERHAPS WE ARE TRULY FROM THE STARS OR WERE ONCE MARTIANS.
WE STILL HAVE TO THIS DAY SOME INDIGENOUS PEOPLE CONSIDERED TO BE "CARGO CULT".
THEY HAVE EMANCIPATED DRAMATICALLY IN ONLY THREE DECADES AS SWIFT AS A CATAPULT.
MAYBE WE WERE ONCE A "CARGO CULT" AND VERY PRIMITIVE IN OUR TECHNOLOGY.
WE HAVE COME A LONG WAY SINCE THEN AND WE ARE NOW READY TO EXPLORE OUR GALAXY.
NEXT OUR ROLE WILL BE SWITCHED AROUND AND WE WILL BE TEACHING PRIMITIVE TRIBES OUR SCIENCE AND MATH.
WHO HAS TRULY TAUGHT US THE WISDOM OF THIS WORLD? AND WHO HAS PLACED US ON OUR PRESENT PATH?

NO MATTER HOW BEAUTIFUL A SONG IS, AN ATTIRE OR EVEN A PERSON WE HUMANS BECOME BLASÉ FROM IT ALL WITH TIME. WE FOREVER SEEK NEW THRILLS, DIFFERENT PLACES TO DISCOVER OR BOREDOM SETS IN AND WE BEGIN TO WHINE.
WE ARE NEVER SATISFIED; OUR NATURE CONSTANTLY DEMANDS MORE AND MORE AND MORE. OUR CRAVINGS ARE MAINLY FOR MATERIAL GOODS WHICH BEING TEMPORAL NEVER FULFILLS THE TRUE NEED AT THE CORE.
IF WE DARE TO BE HONEST WITH OURSELVES AND LOOK INWARD WE DISCOVER THAT THE VOID IS REALLY SPIRITUAL. I ONLY KNOW OF ONE SOLUTION TO THE BLASÉ DILEMMA; IT IS LOVE THAT FILLS THE VOID FOR US ALL.

NO ONE LIKES IT GREY FOR MORE THAN A DAY, NO ONE LIKE TO BE BLUE NEITHER DO I TO BE TRUE.
EVEN THOUGH I ENJOY LISTENING TO THE FALLING RAIN DRIPPING GENTLY ON MY WINDOW PANE. I PREFER A SUNNY AND BRIGHT DAY SO I CAN GO OUT TO PLAY.
RAIN OR SHINE BETTER TAKE IT WITH A SMILE BECAUSE NATURE IS IN CHARGE WITH HER ELEGANT STYLE.
BUT DEPRESSION HAS A SOLUTION BECAUSE WE HAVE TOTAL CONTROL AND DOMINION.
WE CAN OVERCOME THE BLUES AND ANXIETY BUT CHANGING OUR MIND WOULD BE A PRIORITY.
ALL IT TAKES IS ONE SINGLE THOUGHT AND OPTIMISM WOULD BRING PESSIMISM TO NAUGHT.
THE SUN WOULD SHINE AGAIN AND JOY IN OUR HEARTS TO REMAIN.

LOVE IS ALL INSIDE OF US CAUGHT IN A TIME CAPSULE WAITING TO BE FREED. IT IS DORMANT POTENTIAL ENERGY AND ONCE LOOSENED IT WILL BREED.
IT IS UP TO US TO UNLEASH AND SPREAD THAT INHERENT POWER, TO WAKE UP INTO A NEW AGE, A NEW WORLD, NOT TO BE A HATER BUT A LOVER.
A LOVER OF NATURE, OUR MOTHER EARTH AND HER CHILDREN; OUR BROTHER AND SISTER. IT IS BUT A DREAM FOR NOW BUT I BELIEVE IF SHARED THE CONTAGION WOULD MULTIPLY AND PROSPER.
LOVE IS ALL INSIDE OF US CAUGHT IN A TIME CAPSULE WAITING TO BE FREED. IT IS DORMANT POTENTIAL ENERGY AND ONCE LOSENED IT WILL BREED.

COOKING IS VERY SIMILAR TO LOVING. FIRST COMES THE RIGHT INGREDIENTS GATHERING AND AT TIMES IT IS A HUNT TO FIND THE MARRYING SPICES MOST LIKELY FOUND IN UNLIKELY PLACES.
THEN COMES THE PREPARATION THAT ALSO DEPENDS ON OUR PHYSICAL AND EMOTIONAL DISPOSITION.
THE SECRET OF A GOOD MEAL LIES IN THE RIGHT COMBINATION AND A CARING AND FULL CONCENTRATION.
THE SLOWER AND LONGER THE COOKING DURATION THE TASTIER THE DISH WORTHY OF AN OVATION.AND WHEN SERVED TO YOUR GUESTS THE MEAL WILL NOT ONLY BE EATEN BUT SAVORED AND ENJOYED TO THE FULLEST.
PRAISES WILL BE GIVEN AS WELL AS EXCLAMATIONS OF PLEASURES AND THE COOK WILL FEEL HAPPY WITHOUT MEASURE.
A GOOD CHEF GIVES A PART OF HIMSELF IN THIS ART WITH HIS DEDICATION, LOVE AND DESIRE TO PLEASE AND DELIGHT HIS COMPANIONS.
WITHOUT FORGETTING THE MEANINGFUL “BREAKING OF BREAD” TRADITION AND BLESSING OF FOOD FOR GOOD NUTRITION.

WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF A FULL CUP OF WINE BUT TO BE DRINKEN AND SHARED?
LOVE AND KNOWLEDGE IS THE BLESSED WINE TO BE SHARED AMONGST OURSELVES.
WHAT WOULD IT PROFIT TO BE FILLED WITH LOVE AND KNOWLEDGE WITHOUT SHARING IT WITH ONE ANOTHER?
NO MATTER IF THE CUP IS NICKEL, SILVER OR GOLD THE WINE HAS TO BE TOP QUALITY JUST AS CHRIST’S FIRST MIRACLE OUT OF NECESSITY.
AND LOVE AND KNOWLEDGE IS THE GOOD WINE NO MATTER THE VINTAGE YEAR.
FROM THE MOMENT IT IS SHARED IT BECOMES BLESSED AND BENEFICIAL TO ALL PARTAKERS

I WISH I COULD SOAR LIKE AN EAGLE ABOVE ALL TURMOIL AND NEVER HAVE TO COME DOWN INTO THE VALLEY. THE EAGLE ALSO HAS TO HUNT IN THE VALLEY TO CATCH HIS PREY BUT HE SOON RETURNS TO HIS AERIE AND CHICKS TO STAY.
FLYING AND WATCHING FROM ABOVE USING THE PRECISION OF THE EAGLE’S EYE I WISH I COULD PREVENT TRAGEDY AND FEEL ON TOP OF THE WORLD CONSTANTLY; FREE OF CARE, OUT OF REACH OF ANY DANGER AND ENMITY.
ALAS AS THE EAGLE I NEED TO FEED AND SURVIVE WHERE THE GOODS ARE AVAILABLE IN THE VALLEY OF OUR SOCIETY.
SO I FEIGN FOR A WHILE TO BELONG AND I PLAY ACCORDING TO OUR RULES AND WHEN TIRED AND WEARY I NEED TO FLY AWAY TO SOOTHE MY WOES. AND LIKE THE EAGLE RENEWING HIS FEATHERS AND YOUTH I WILL DIVE INTO THE OCEAN TO RENEW MY VIGOR AND GET RID OF MY BLUES.
I WISH I COULD SOAR LIKE AN EAGLE ABOVE ALL TURMOIL AND NEVER HAVE TO COME DOWN INTO THE VALLEY.
