How did it get like this?

Hoards of dysfunctional fighting,

Instead of just kindly uniting?

Ongoing negative competition,

Instead of adopting a better edition?

How did it get like this?

Arrogance claiming to be "the best"

To humiliate the good in all the rest?

Delusion spreading like stoked wild fire

Where truth should rise and never retire?

How did it get like this?

The ongoing misplaced blame

 Putting the innocent to shame?

The heartless hate and greed

Lashing out at the poor in need?

How did it get like this?

 Victims of the most horrid abuse

Left suffering in a religious nuce?

The wars left to rage on and on,

Until those opposing them are gone?

How did it get like this?

 Homeless gropes in crowded streets

With no shoes on cold bare feet?

The unloved fading in pools of tears

In a lost world with unshifting gears?

How did it get like this?

In our families, communities and nations?

Where is the bonding in our relations -

Where is the healing in sorrows release?

Where is the Love? Where is the peace?

How did it get like this?

 We must turn in the other direction -

Open up to Love's real reflection.

Stop the fighting, hate and greed.

Extend a heart to those in need.

This is the way it should be.

A world set in loving peace.

None left to grope or bleed -

All the bound set truly free

In all of our precious humanity.

This is the way it should be.

Please be Kind to the Homeless

Please be kind to the poor and the homeless people.

All are victims of greed or the heartless parts of humanity.

All deserve compassion and to not be left in need.

Letter to President Trump

Dear President Trump,
   I have a few VIP suggestions that can completely resolve the homeless problem. I have some expertise in this arena, because I am a homeless person.
   I beg you to take a deeper look at this situation, with your heart, and realize that most homeless people are not criminals. Many lost homes due to sudden increases in rent or due to medical problems. Some are veterans who were too wounded in the wars. Some lost homes in floods or fires. Some are elderly people who's social security is not enough to cover the rent. Many are victims of crimes that shoved them into poverty or homelessness. Many are victims of domestic abuse and neglect...etc. And most of us do not feel safe in shelter's that do not provide a private bed and completely private showers, because there are (unfortunately) some homeless people (or shelter workers) who can be dangerous or disrespectful.

The best way to quickly clean up the streets is to provide homeless people with SAFE places to live. Among other things, this could be done with the building of large shelters that have private single bedrooms and showers, and enough guards to keep them safe, and enough kind and compassionate counselors (and funding) to help them recover from what has happened to them and get them back onto their own feet. Perhaps four different types of homeless shelters would be best; one for families with young children, one for harmless single people, one for drug addicts and alcoholics, and one for those who can get violent. And each one could have support groups and programs that help with what they need, which is most often to get back onto their own feet and choose their own place to live.

A long term plan to prevent homelessness would have to include a massive drop in the cost of living... and massive efforts to stop crimes that severely hurt people financially or physically or mentally or emotionally... and massive efforts to stop domestic violence and heal severe familial dysfunction. And it should also include ALL of humanity being encouraged to find the heart to not leave their family or community members suffering out on the streets alone, when many could kindly offer them enough money to get a home, or provide them with one...etc. Perhaps we could have "help the homeless" weekends that encourage people to go out and do what they can to directly help at least one homeless person to have the kindness and consideration that ALL people should have from fellow human beings; to have a caring person to talk to and a SAFE place to live...etc.

 Please help us without hurting us - without force and with compassion. Please care about us and be considerate of our feelings. Please.

I hope this helps you to deal with this homeless situation in a way that is good for everyone, including us homeless people. 

As for me; I recently started getting my monthly retirement social security refund check, but its not nearly enough to get an apartment, so I will still be homeless until I am able to save enough for a piece of land that I can build a little cabin on, which is what I want and need most anyway. But the raids against the homeless scare me a lot. I have already been hurt so much that it is hard to have to endure even more - its VERY hard to have to live in fear of being grabbed and forced into a place that could be even more dangerous for me. And I am sure that most other homeless people feel the same way. Please help us without hurting us - without force and with compassion. Please care about us and be considerate of our feelings. Please.

I once worked hard and owned my own country homes, but was shoved into destitution through being covertly targeted by a group of criminals. Among the things I've had to endure are the loss of a substantial bank account, a fire in one of the homes I'd owned, my business being sabotaged, being drugged and raped, and ongoing microwave and laser weapon attacks. And there are many others (like me) who are harmless victims of horrid crimes, and who have families that hurt and/or intentionally deprive us, instead of helping us. We should not be hurt even more by being forced into shelters that are not safe for us, or through forced institutionalization and stigmatization by unaware people who assume that we are "mentally ill" or "dangerous" because these things are not true. More than anything, we need the crimes, that are being committed against us, to be stopped, so that we can get back onto our own feet and get our own places to live in. Can you do this for us - stop the crimes that are being committed against us, so that we can freely live our own lives? Can you?

Sincerely,

Only heart can fix the problems that heartlessness created

I am worried about homeless people who are being forced off our streets. I am all for ending homelessness and stopping crime in our communities, and I feel that it must be done with compassion, while facing and eliminating the root causes of these problems...

How many of the homeless alcoholics and drug addicts were so abused and/or felt so unloved that they turned to alcohol or drugs to dull the unbearable emotional pain? How many of the criminal ones are acting out abuses that freely happened to them? How many homeless people are forced to steal things, in order to survive? How many of the teen gangs have parents who are too wounded to properly care for them?
   How many homeless people are merely decent people who cannot afford the high cost of rentals and home purchases? How many are Targeted Individuals who are unfairly assumed to be "mentally ill" while they continue to be hurt by microwave and laser weapon attacks? And how many are harassed or looked down upon and left to suffer alone, instead of being kindly helped by fellow human beings? These are important questions. Please think about them.

In general; in order to truly and permanently clean up our streets, the heart of humanity must also be cleaned up; Many people, from ALL walks of life, must learn to genuinely care about other people more than they care about money or appearances or fancy things...etc. Wounded and poor people must have more safe and compassionate people (as well as places) to go to, in order to recover from what has knocked them down. And the things that have knocked them down should be realized and stopped; things like excessive greed and heartlessness and their various types of abuses, including emotional abuse and mental abuse and covert harassment and microwave weapon attacks.

Masses of people have been brainwashed into thinking that directly giving homeless people money will just "enable them," yet not nearly all of them are drug addicts and alcoholics. What many need is just enough unconditional financial help, in order to get themselves a safe place to live and healthy food to eat and clean clothes to wear...until they can get back onto their own feet. More than anything, they ALL need people to care about them enough to help them in the ways that they BOTH need and want to be helped. And they need this directly from fellow citizens and not just from impersonal institutions.

How many of the existing "homeless shelters" are not safe for most homeless people - how many do not even have private/safe bedrooms and showers? (Some do for families, but individuals need them just as much.) Are there even enough shelters to fill the current need? And are there designated plots of land or unused buildings, on the outskirts of cities or towns, where homeless people are allowed to freely live, when they do not want to be forced into unsafe shelters or jails or asylums or rehab centers? There sure should be, out of consideration for their safety, especially for Targeted Individuals who would be far more unsafe, than the others, at unaware or infiltrated shelters or asylums or medical centers.

Far more must be done to stop people from being hurt emotionally and mentally as well as financially and physically. Far more must be done to SAFELY house homeless people, until they can get back onto their own feet or until their families or community members find the heart to genuinely care about them enough to not leave them suffering in destitute or homeless situations. The heart of humanity must be far more healed, on BOTH sides of that wall, in order for things to be truly cleaned up. A compassionate bridge must be built.

If all people cared enough, there would be no homelessness and no poverty and no crime. And a good first step in this direction would be implementing a HUGE cutback in the current mass distribution of the types of pharmaceuticals that block people's emotions/hearts. And another good first step would be to let go of the old dysfunctional "no crying allowed" rule, because letting ourselves cry out our emotional pain, is what prevents our hearts from being blocked by suppressed pain.
It all comes back to more heart/compassion/love being needed in ALL of humanity, and this is what we should focus on gaining and exercising, above all else. Only heart can fix the problems that heartlessness created.

Humanity must gain far more genuine heart, in order for our communities to be permanently cleaned up and free of crime and suffering homeless people.

P.S. Another good first step would be humanity realizing that people who have been covertly targeted into destitution and covertly harassed and tortured with microwave weapons, are victims of crimes who need the proper kinds of help and protection. They are truly not just "mentally ill," and treating them as such merely hurts them even more. Please open your minds as well as your hearts, for everyone's sakes.

Defining Emotional and Mental Abuse

I am reiterating this because this problem has rarely been mentioned or acknowledged in our world, because it has freely become more rampant in societies around the globe, because it can hurts people in ways that are even worse and longer lasting than physical abuse, and because it must be realized and stopped, in order to make our world a more safe and healthy place to live in.

Emotional Abuse; is the intentional messing with people's emotions, in ways that include making them feel hurt or scared or angry or guilty. There is often also a demeaning verbal abuse part of this.

Mental Abuse: is the intentional messing with people's minds, in ways that include fabricating or doing or saying things that can make them doubt their own sanity, or distrust their own perceptions and memories, or make them feel confused.

These are things that we should not do and should
not tolerate being done to ourselves or others. Emotional and mental abuses are VERY damaging and just absolutely cannot continue becoming a 'norm' for the sake of the emotional and mental wellbeing of humanity, especially our children.

Please share this information and do what you can to help new laws to be drawn up, in order to help stop emotional, mental and verbal abuses.

I Beg the Hearts of Global Leaders and Media to Help Palestine and the Palestinian People to be Free and Safe.

Israel has been preventing outside journalists from entering Gaza and has repeatedly tried to either kill or discredit the Palestinian Journalists in Gaza. This alone proves that Israeli officials are doing wrongs that they do not want exposed.
   Now, as Israeli officials aim to complete the final stage, in their 75+ year aim to take over all of Palestine, it has again vamped up the murdering of Palestinian journalists who are reporting what is happening in Gaza. Five were just killed this weekend! And they are threatening and terrorizing other's into silence!
    Israel does not want the world to know what it is doing in Gaza and the West Bank. But the TRUTH must be known, and Israel must be stopped, even though it is already too late for so much. The following video explains this media problem...

Israel is targeting media in Gaza to silence Palestinian voices...

Israel continue to pound Gaza as Palestinian mourn

I beg international media to stop blindly repeating the Israeli propaganda and start standing up for what is left of Palestine and the Palestinian people. And please keep in mind that there is probably truth in the reports, which have stated that Israeli leaders had actually manipulated Hamas into governing Gaza, so that Israel could later use Hamas - "terrorists" as an excuse to finish getting rid of the Palestinian people and finish stealing (or taking complete control of) the rest of Palestine. And there is probably a lot of truth in the reports which stated that Israel kills a lot of Palestinian women and children in order to stop the Palestinians from outnumbering Israeli immigrants - so that the Palestinians will not gain the right to take back all of Palestine...etc. I feel that there is TRUTH in these reports, which have not yet been shared in any of the Western main stream media, that I know of.
    It is not wise or fair for you to blindly believe and share Israeli statements, when Israel will not even let your journalists in to see what is really happening, and when Israel has been killing Palestinian Journalists who do share it.

People must know the real truth and the bigger picture, because Israel's war against Palestine and the Palestinian people did NOT start on Oct 7th - Its started over 75 years ago and Oct 7th was a Palestinian retaliation against previous Israeli violence and Israel's unfair imprisonment of resisting Palestinian people, including children. Please also share the Palestinian side of Israel's horrid 75+ year war against Palestine and the Palestinian people. Please help what little is now left of Palestine and the Palestinian people to be safe and free.

I beg Leaders of all countries to let your hearts take actions to completely stop Israel's illegal occupation and violence, and set Palestine and the Palestinian people free. Words and empty threats are not enough. Please help what little is now left of Palestine and the Palestinian people to be safe and free.

Since Israel's initial aim to get rid of Palestine and the Palestinian people, (75+ years ago) hundreds of thousands of Palestinian people (mostly women and children) have either lost their lives or their homes or their loved ones or their limbs...etc. Where are your hearts?

My Heart's Warning to the World...

As you read this please keep in mind that most christian people are good decent people who are just searching for answers or a for a higher power or for comfort or for something positive to believe in...etc. This is not about them. Its about SOME of their leaders.

For many centuries now, the dark parts of Christian Religions have aimed to convert/"assimilate" all of humanity. And they have done it through instigating barbaric lethal wars..., through forcefully gathering and abusing and assimilating indigenous children in Christian "Residential Schools"..., through forced baptisms of Jewish people..., through slyly manipulating people, including through instilling fear into people... and through various types of abuses and brainwashings. The destruction, that this has caused in humanity, is utterly catastrophic and appears to be one of the primary reasons why things are so bad in our world today.
   Factual documented history proves much of this problem. But there is more and there is still just cause for concern about dark religious aims for dominance and control over humanity. The following news report exposes just a tiny bit of just one part of it...

He thinks America should adopt a Christian theocracy...

FYI; In general, I believe in equal rights and equal opportunities and equal freedoms for all people. Although men and women have many differences, and most have different types of strengths, I feel certain that they are intellectual equals. I feel that a healthy marriage is an equal partnership where ALL decisions for the family are made by BOTH the husband and wife, with consideration for the feelings and opinions of the children.
   That old dysfunctional part of our past, where men dominated, and women were forced to be only their silent baby producing servants, belongs only in the past where lessons can be learned from those mistakes. The state of our world, after many centuries of religious male dominance, is proof of that system not working well for humanity. And I do not believe that "God" had anything to do with any of it - I believe that heartlessness and blind arrogance is what forced humanity down that dark path where women had no rights and no voice. It cannot happen again. I don't think it will happen again, but there is far more than just these extremist views, in much of the religion stuff, that has been and still is a threat to humanity. Various types of brainwashings and fear inducing manipulations are just two of them, and all of them must be realized and stopped. (Not to mention the child sexual abuse crimes, which have been rampant in many christian churches and schools.) These are NOT places where the real God resides. Yet, masses of people STILL flock to them for guidance...etc. Its VERY scary.

I feel that those who use "God's" name in aims to manipulate, convert/assimilate, or scare people into following or obeying their own perceptions of the bible or their own beliefs or wishes, are not acting in accordance with the real God... and those who use "God's" name to justify acts of violence or vengeance are actually going against God's wishes. And sadly, some (if not all) of the religious leaders, who do these sorts of things are actually being lead by evil forces that operate under the mask of "Godliness." Beware! This is VERY dangerous and it must be seen for what it is and rejected.

I deeply believe in God, but I no longer believe in the religions. I have had over 60 years of experience with exploring spirituality, inside christian religions, as well as outside of them and within myself. And, through that process, I realized that the real "God" is pure Love and Light..., that the real God wants us all to have the "FREE WILL" to follow our own hearts and honor our own instincts and belief systems..., that the real God wants PEACE and the complete end to all types of hurtful acts between people and nations..., that the real God wants the end of human beings trying to dominate and control fellow human beings... that the real God comes to ALL of us through our own HEARTS and that this naturally happens regardless of whether we follow any religion or not or whether we believe in "God" or not..., that the real God wants us all to heal/open our hearts to real LOVE and share that LOVE with our fellow human beings through genuine acts of kindness and compassion and respect for differences in opinions and beliefs.

The truth I feel is that the real God is Love. And the real God/Love never tries to harm or scare or dominate or control or assimilate/convert other people...absolutely never. Where the real God/Love resides, ALL races and genders and people are equal and ALL must be free to make their own choices and have their own voices. People who are genuinely connected to the real God/Love honor these basic humane rights..., and it is not wise to follow anyone who doesn't.

I have known people who do not even believe in God, and yet were far more connected to God than any of the religious people I've known. They merely used their hearts - they were genuinely compassionate and were respectful of other people's different beliefs...etc. That is what is most Godly.

We ALL have healing work to do, in order to more fully feel and spread real love. And we should all do this whether we believe in "God" or not. Lets heal/open our own hearts and let real love shine through them, just because its the humane thing to do, in order to make our world a better place to live in. We do not have to follow any religion, in order to do this, we just have to let ourselves care. Please care - be kind and considerate and respectful to fellow human beings. Let real love win.

Update on Me

I am mostly healed from that severe attack. It is now just mild residual effects, and the usuall milder forms of microwave and laser weapon targeting. Im still in survival mode and praying for freedom for us all.

  It appears that, after reports of things like this, started being shared in the main stream media, Israel is rushing to finish destroying and taking over Gaza, before more gets out. :-( This just can not be allowed to continue!
