DO YOU BELIEVE IN MIRACLES ?

I know I'm suppose to write on Memorial Day, being a Veteran  and all that, as I have over the years...but...as of right now, I don't feel like it , OK ?

Do you believe in Miracles ? Parameters are interesting; almost as interesting as how people keep score in life ! (But we'll deal with "Score Keeping" down the road, if time allows, as stupid as that is to engage in !

On TV I find I like "Burn Notice", a neo-spy series that will be back on the Tube in June / July.

This Fall we'll get a chance to watch Miracle Man, drama on ABC about a disgraced televangelist who becomes an Atheist after being exposed as a fraud, only to later discover that God is using him to perform real miracles. HHMMMnnnn !

If the recent Harris Poll (November 29^th,2007) is correct in reading America's pulse, this story is likely to resonate with most Americans. HUH ? Well four out-of five Americans believe in miracles, that they are real, and nearly two-thirds personally know someone who has experienced one. Interesting...

In another Poll, this one from Roper, the interesting thing I found was that 76% of those polled said they had above average intelligence! Cool !

I am a rather lucky individual. Intelligent people deign to converse with me; and on July 14^th of this year I will be married for 25 years. WOW ! I sat across from Dawn (my wife) this morning and thought, this woman has been short-changed. She has always made sure we ( my two Sons and I) always had enough...and yes , I do Love her, respect her and care so very much for her. She has been short-changed, at least this past calendar year.

I try not to write on things I do not personally know about and have experienced. (and as of yesterday I will engage in a whole new experience that shall occupy the rest of my life!) I know life, I know War, I know ...well ...a few things. I know this year I have never been this tired, this warn-out. Last Spring I underwent Jaw Surgery, which for a Diabetic (at least this Diabetic) comes with it's own hidden dangers. I was not fully recovered when Kamp Kumar came along; but Master Frantzis said all I had to do was attend, lie there by him up-front, and relax in the energy. I did, and it worked.

Then upon my return to Portland I was to under Cancer Surgery (twice) and it came out OK. Then I thought I was in good stead, and BAM, On Veterans Day 2007, I underwent a Massive Heart Attack, with two Surgeries on my Heart. HHHMMmmmmmnnn !

Now, this morning, I sat across the Living-room, across from this wonderful woman, and wish things were different...How...Well...Last Thursday I went to the Oncologist so they could check my Blood. Well they did ! They also took a Bone-Marrow Biopsy from my hip...OUCH ! This Thursday morning we go back to the Oncologists for the results, because my Blood profile is that mixed-up. She is a tough woman; a Navy Nurse from the Viet Nam era. So...we'll see...

Now that you know a little about my insanity...may I ask :

WHAT HAVE YOU CHANGED YOUR MIND ABOUT ?

"I thought that once, and now I think this"...well that's what Gandhi said.

WHAT MATTERS ? Is there Anything that sets your soul on fire ?

We don't get Redo's in life...

What have you changed your mind about ?

Is your mind  flexible , are you really open ?

I mean open. Allowing, accepting, able to just let some concepts and ideas just simply be ? Really ?...HHHMMMmmmmmm!

I'll write more soon; and I am sorry I haven't written more as of late.

The other shoe dropped... I have "Multiple Myeloma"...

As BK Frantzis entreated me, I am busy with Inner Dissolving...

But "I'll Be back !
