Sensitivity

Published August 31, 2020 by tindertender

For nearly two decades my sensitivity has been increasing for all life. Six years ago I woke at three a.m. and for some odd reason I flipped to YouTube and watched a massive bull being slaughtered.

He was majestic, powerful, and determined to live. It took five full grown men to force him into the stall, where they trapped him and slit his throat. I watched as the life drained from him.

It scarred me. I could not bring myself to eat meat afterward, especially red meat … feeling the horror of it in every fiber of me.

Today, six years after cutting meat entirely from my diet, I consumed a new york steak.

When the thought first rose in me this afternoon I asked out loud, how can I possibly eat such a thing, knowing this powerful beast wanted to live just as much as I … a powerful animal that had never consumed flesh.

The thought came to me that I needed to toughen my gentle heart, that I needed to balance the gentleness with its polarity, even if only slightly.

Again I asked aloud, how can I possibly eat this without feeling guilty? I got the impression my body needed it, the energy of it.

The answer came fairly quickly.

Eat the mighty bull … eat the mighty bull and allow its power, it’s strength, and it’s desire to live infuse with my own being.

So I stated over and over again …

Eat the Mighty Bull … Eat the Mighty Bull … bond with it’s life force and allow it to live on, through me … strengthening me.

Now, the bull and I are one.

After six years without it, it should be quite evident the effect it will have upon my being, my body, my mind, my energy.

I love the mighty bull … it is my brother, my nourisher, my sustainer … this is how I now choose to view it … with honor, and deep gratitude.

Of course … it might not sit well with me after more thought. It will be interesting to see how this progresses.

UPDATE: Every being wants to live, none wish to die. Knowing this how can I harm a being simply for my own selfish need? Even the simple purchase of it, which someone else has done the harm to, is doing a wrong against life. Compassion takes courage. Love must be cultivated in heart and include all portions of life. It will be another very long time, if ever, I consume flesh.

It is important to be aware of these “urgings” … it is a slippery slope, this line between having compassion for all life, and participating in its destruction.

Mass hypnotism and rote learning has taught us to have disregard for any life but our own.

Selfishness is bred into the mind, and it comes from the unseen as well as those who are in body supporting the narrative.

Yes, I consumed a portion of the Mighty Bull. And I thank him for giving me this current understanding, affirming my original decision to end my consumption.

The energy of the Mighty Bull is chaotic. I sense a sort of sick feeling in the pit of my stomach and my attitude has become agitated.

Now I will work towards cleansing and purifying my energetic field, drinking a lot of water … for I know not yet the techniques others utilize.

Thank you Mighty Bull, for sharing your message and desire for life with me. I will do my best to honor you.

Darling …

Today is a day to focus on action. I have goals and dreams and now is the time to take action. I always continue the inner world of cultivating positive thoughts and ideas, but now is the time to also commit to performing actions, no matter how small, that will move me forward on my path towards making my dreams come true.

Affirmation 8-18-2020

Published August 18, 2020 by tindertender

Today is a day to focus on healing. If my body needs healing, I attend to what I need to do physically. And I also heal my thoughts. I keep my thoughts and ideas positive, and let go of old hurts and ideas that have made me unhappy. I release those old ways of thinking and become a source of healing – for myself and others.

14 Milligrams

Published August 17, 2020 by tindertender

There are 1000 milligrams to one tiny gram. One fully grown male weighs 14 milligrams here in this valley.

I’ve trained HARD atop the highest mountain … where gravity pulls intensely, where the air is quite thin.

I’ve come to this valley where everything is lighter, where those who have not the necessary skill or power to even climb the smallest of mountains reside, pulling their dirty cheap tricks.

Cheap, cheap, cheap … like little chickens.

My color is RED, a vibrant and powerful RED.

I AM a River …. I flow gently, softly, yet also roar with a rage that rips the strongest trees from my banks … for these banks are mine … and will be reformatted as I see fit.

Thank You

Remembering Authentic Power

Published August 9, 2020 by tindertender

As one, we assist and bless each other … let us remember the importance of our union, and bring honor to it once more.

Our degradation has gone on quite long enough ….

Pony up soldiers ….

In Love.

You Better Run

Published August 2, 2020 by tindertender

To my early morning visitor, and ALL those with him …..

WARNING! You best be mighty careful where you decide to tread.

Whatcha tryin’ to do to my heart
Whatcha tryin’ to do to my heart
You go around, tellin’ lies, and now you wanna compromise
Whatcha tryin’ to do to my heart
You better run, you better hide, you better leave from my side, yeah

Whatcha tryin’ to do to my soul
Whatcha tryin’ to do to my soul
Well everything I had is yours, and now I’m closin’ all the doors
Whatcha tryin’ to do to my soul
You better run, you better hide, you better leave from my side, yeah

I love you, oh I love you so, can’t you see, don’t you know
I can’t stand your alibis, you tell me lies, drive me wild, yeah

I say what are you tryin’ to do to my head
Say whatcha tryin’ to do to my head
Well now I’m gonna draw the line
‘Cause you ain’t gonna take my mind
What are you tryin’ to do to my head

You better run, you better hide, you better leave from my side
You better run, you better hide, you better leave from my side
I could yell, yeah
I said go away and leave me alone
I can’t stand you no more

Historic Journey

Published August 2, 2020 by tindertender

For a small amount of perspective at this moment, imagine you were born in 1900. When you are 14, World War I starts, and ends on your 18th birthday with 22 million people killed. Later in the year, a Spanish Flu epidemic hits the planet and runs until you are 20. Fifty million people die from it in those two years. Yes, 50 million.

When you’re 29, the Great Depression begins. Unemployment hits 25%, global GDP drops 27%. That runs until you are 33. The country nearly collapses along with the world economy. When you turn 39, World War II starts. You aren’t even over the hill yet.

When you’re 41, the United States is fully pulled into WWII. Between your 39th and 45th birthday, 75 million people perish in the war and the Holocaust kills six million. At 52, the Korean War starts and five million perish.

At 64 the Vietnam War begins, and it doesn’t end for many years. Four million people die in that conflict. Approaching your 62nd birthday you have the Cuban Missile Crisis, a tipping point in the Cold War. Life on our planet, as we know it, could well have ended. Great leaders prevented that from happening.

As you turn 75, the Vietnam War finally ends. Think of everyone on the planet born in 1900. How do you survive all of that? A kid in 1985 didn’t think their 85 year old grandparent understood how hard school was. Yet those grandparents (and now great grandparents) survived through everything listed above.

Perspective is an amazing art. Let’s try and keep things in perspective. Let’s be smart, help each other out, and we will get through all of this. In the history of the world, there has never been a storm that lasted.

This too, shall pass.
