Mission Accomplished
I know not.
Not only is it not accomplished but, the mission itself is flawed.
As societies today continue to recruit young men to be warriors, no matter the justification, what can we expect? As peoples of nations continue to believe we need young men to be warriors, what can we expect? As societies we contine to place the utmost importance on jobs, fuel, income, and self importance, what can we expect.
We are organisms, living on an organism, which is part of an organism, which is never in the present but, always what is about to be. Like energy this potential is limitless but, this is not what we expect. Out of primitive instinct, our young primitive race, looks not to evolution but to destuction and consumption, as reality born by God.

In time

Who am I to say?

Subject: Bush and the Relief effort
We think in a good faith demonstration of REAL family values, the Bush family should open up the Crawford Ranch for victims of Hurricane Katrina. There's plenty of room. It's relatively close. and it shows a willingness to do more than a symbolic kissing of babies. We'd like to see this spread around the web as a grass roots movement until it's heard at the Ranch. So spread the word....

Red White, and Blue

How about if we try for this.

Proud to be human, to care for all mankind, Attack and counter attack, gets us nowhere,

Listen and look at the world around us, the simplest form is no less simple then you, and you were not born when you think.

We must not only think, how to sustain ourselves, for that is a question of time, something that is, will always be, in windows open one time.

I'm not sure what it will take, for I see a man in a cave, not sure they can see, the shadows that fall, are from outside their man made wall. I wish you could see, where I have been, for I know how to see with my soul, you may think it false, or how can it be, but I tell you there's no shadow at all.

Someone wanted me to show the lighter side so here it is, and don't I wish the peace and serenity was the norm.

Comments on content

When I hear people, especially artists say "content is irrelevant", well it brings to light again the area of concern for peoples of the earth. I believe so many feel that content is no longer relevant because we no longer know who we are, yes we are that lost. for it is hard to express something when you have no need or desire to know what it is, instead we have become creatures of the artificial surface.

The issue for humanity

Hello,

So many of us look at 911 and ask how it could have been averted. We look at New Orleans and ask why didn't we strengthen the levies long ago knowing the risks of not. The world is full of tragedy's which we all try to understand, but all to often we only look at the effect and not the cause, for the root of our problems are directly from looking for the answers from outside ourselves. Humanity must address the issue of humanity, stripped of external form and emotion so how to evacuate people does not get confused with becoming one peoples, in effect one organism. As a species we seem to accept the surface totality in what we are and may achieve, you request may be a view with art of rectangular shapes, surface symbols which touch only the surface of the problems. I am offering a glimpse of your future which in kind is mine, if you want to open the door to change, take a look.

or, we can continue to play a guessing game.
Sincerely,

I'm looking through you

sun and rain

you see, that is not a choice, for in the plane experiencing it or not is not a question, to only see the sun is to not experience the rain, if one does not experience the rain how does one know fully what the sun is, If one believes the sun will make their life a better place then one believes it is not themselves but instead an outside force which creates their peace. this is how god was created. you see if you look at a formula, sun, as the means to happiness then the formula becomes life itself, Almost everything you stated above is a set of "what we should do", as if these things would not happen naturally, so in fact it becomes a formula for life in stead of the moment, which undoubtedly would have led to the same, yet slightly different because it would not have been strewn with conditions, the ying is no better than the yang if you close the door to one you are out of balance, If each brings you peace, solely because that is the way it is, then this is understanding.
we are afraid of tomorrow and of others because we don't see that we are the others we are afraid of. If you believe you can force life to only see the sun, you have not accepted the rain, and thus can never truly experience all the sun has to offer.

Fear of tommorow, fear of others, because we don't see that we are the others, we are humanity

Hi, we can talk about the levies and this and that but the problem is much deeper than the physical effect of power and greed, humanity, like the levies is on the verge of breaking, like governments inaction and blindness, what are we doing, daily, in every moment, for when we talk only amongst ourselves we might as well be talking to a wall. sorry.

it starts with forgetting everything you have been taught about god and faith. for in god and faith comes the excuse of actions being out of our control, in fact destiny becomes that of a source created by man for the purpose of control and to absolve sins simply by saying sorry. the only people running the course of our destiny is we ourselves, so long as people believe otherwise we are doomed. I am truly sorry if you want to believe that something else will give you eternal peace and look over us all in case of disaster, which oddly enough we call act of god, and I know how alone we will be without the comfort of that image, but it must go in order for us to move forward in evolution. you asked.


i didn't think you would, because of peoples fear of change, and fear of being nothing more than they are. If you think a new president is going to fix our problems than your only looking at your own. It is time for humanity to take another leap, in its history and evolution. If you think that comes about without major changes in how we see, then you are not ready, and not alone. this is soon beyond the time for band aids, so if your content with what you believe and nothing more my question to you is how long ago did you stop asking yourself to question all that you think you know? 20 years ago? in reality? better levies quicker responses more social services war only when necessary more jobs better jobs fuel efficient cars, do you really think that is what will be advancing mankind?
please
now if today you say, I'm going to get by with looking into my pretty flowers today and that will make it alright, for me, well that's o.k. most of the people are doing the same, it is to see that emotion has nothing to do with happiness or state of being, you think dark painting is dark emotion or dark point of view, you see I don't let the notion of dark create a bias from what happens naturally, In discussing mankind's problems I am no less happy or sad then when looking at a picture of a pretty flower, emotion does not enter into the equation of life, for me, I guess you can call me spock. but until emotion is not judged for it fuels religions, bias, hate, love, god, etc. but is only a piece of being not the being itself, until then we stay put, look how we all do something to make us happy, what is happy? just an emotion, which, fundamentally has nothing to do with life, and neither does death, or pain or orgasm or a good sale day. they are what they are and should be viewed as nothing more than that, it is not the trigger, or the response, it is the witness to life in the cycle itself.

Reflection

Reflections
All one people
All one time
The being our makeup
The being our mind
Scared of each other
Walking this line
Together to see
Of what we could be
is nothing more
than what we are
with eyes in our head
that can't see but form
to bad for tommorow
outside of the door
because we can't feel
just outside our grasp
the handle of all things
untill they have passed
humanity worries
well that it should
searching in places
of theory and song
the vibrant discourse
i am and i know
I believe what i read
I believe what i'm told
others unlike me
contempt and disgust
my will i shall force
my will I shall thrust
till the throats of my brother
choak in red rain
I know I am right
but what have i gained
and so the cycle
of man in his wisdom
is facing a wall
but of all times as this
has chosen to fall
his eyes to a fist
cleanched tight for the pain
hear, its my whisper
to all of my brothers
and sisters alike
you eat your own soul
because you can't see
with those eyes in your head
that you
are no more than me.

National guard

Hello,
I know this is an art blog but,,, I want to make a simple comment on a "not so simple" situation.
Once again our commander in chief has failed in the name of our national interest. The reason why the national guard took so long to mobilize in the gulf coast is, they are, for the most part, in Iraq. Our national guard is supposed to be available for national care in circumstances such as the most recent hurricane. In the misconstrued name of national defense, "the Iraq war", our leaders have failed us at every turn with their misjudgment. In my life, I have never seen so many failures, in National, Domestic, foreign, economic or Environmental policies under one administrations watch. As a result our country and the world have entered a state of crisis.
While on the subject, for those who don't understand the impact of global warming here is a comparison. The Gulf waters are 3 to 4 degree's above normal. The earth is a living organism much like yourself. What happens to you, or any living thing for that matter when your temperature is elevated by just 3 degrees. It is time for mankind to examine themselves, cancer kills its host.

If cave paintings were of compassion

Sometimes I wonder what we are going to leave for others to see. Perhaps we don't believe in evolution, perhaps we don't have time, to believe that we don't know. Perhaps if we didn't believe we are the chosen ones knowing all the answers, then perhaps that would be to hard to believe. All I ask is, just look around, at the world, at humanity. Is it that we don't have time to wonder? Not much time has passed since our legacy was that of the hunt, of merely survival.
