2012 Dream Journal, Entry #1:
After conversations with friends, a rereading of some Carlos Castaneda and a particularly good documentary called "The Pyramid Code," (concerning the energy change happening) my soulmate Robin and I decided to be sober for the year and more aware of our waking and dream states...boy was I hit quick the first night.
I became lucid flying over a desert. An inner narrator commented on 4-wheelers bounding in and out of sand dunes. Some were riding carefully and some were careless and injuring themselves. Then it hit me...I'm flying. I looked back over some mountains I had already passed and then at the desert below me. It was amazing. My thoughts drifted to my soulmate, because I was beyond psyched that I could get so clear in my dream state after such a long break. I was soon approaching lush, green hills that I assumed was Colorado or California. Just to be sure I was still dreaming, I risked a glance back at our bed and sure enough, we were still there. "WOW," I thought, "I'm transitioning between states without a problem."
I became aware of how easy it was to fly (which I have done many times), but I was wasn't sure how I would land. I descended gracefully onto the grassy hillside and walked, examining my surroundings. I kept considering how to bring this reality to my waking life. How could I connect the dream state with the waking state and make it stick? I wanted to phone Robin and let her know I flew across the country (sans a vehicle), and was right now hundreds of miles away. Inside the store, I reminded myself not to stare too hard at anything, because often the dream will dissolve right in front of you, if examined too closely...not the case this time. I saw the shelves, food, items for sale and almost bumped into a black woman and her child.
"I just flew here in my dream," I mention off hand, "and you are part of it."
"I'm in your dream?" she asked, "Am I not real?"
"Of course you are real," I say, "and your own person, but I've never met you, and right now you are in my dream."
She laughed and led me into a room with people I knew. There was Edwin, a kid I remember from camp who changed his name to Peter, a guy who said he was an ex-boyfriend of DJ Who, and then I wound up in a garage with some of my better friends, Nato Caliph, Benjamin Gandhi-Shepard, and Jabari Robinson. I walked straight up to Nato and told him how I got here. He looked freaked out and said I was crazy. I approached Ben and began telling him what happened, and that's when Robin's alarm clock went off.
Oh well, until next time...

Response to Jamie Dimon of J.P. Morgan Chase
“Acting like everyone who’s been successful is bad and because you’re rich you’re bad, I don’t understand it"
-J.P. Morgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon
It's not "everyone" Jamie, it's just you...and when you try to pit us vs. them, it makes you look more guilty.
Win-Win capitalism (I trade you money for a good product/labor or vice versa) works. Predatory capitalism (make money at anyone's expense) SUCKS...and that's why transparency is the apocalypse: when we see what you are doing, we choose to boycott your business until you change.
Rolling Stone wrote a great opinion piece with the same quote:

Write the President
President Obama,
I marched in Kansas and Maryland for Bradley Manning, because I believe he is a whistle blower and protected by the Pentagon Papers Supreme Court ruling (as Daniel Ellsberg does).
If you were his lawyer and believed in him, how would you defend him?

Obama, Political Strategist
Obama is "working with everyone" because we voted for all of them, and it was our choice to put each of them in power. He's doing his job as president to work with the rest of those who are governing. By working with even the worst of the politicians, the People get to see what everyone is really up to, then it forces our hand to either march and let the government know what we want or remain complacent. It's master political strategy at it's best, but it makes him look like a bit of a puppet.
WIN-WIN
The only monsters in the military industrial complex or the government or big business are those who use their power to control or kill others. There is no necessity for spies if we decide to win together as the People instead of "us vs. them." I am seeking a peaceful WIN-WIN solution for everyone on Earth so we can stop fighting and enjoy our lives here. Unfortunately, many in the military/government/big business aren't interested in that, so I care to point out where they are seriously pushing the planet in what I consider the wrong direction.

My Bias on Jesus and "Christianity"
My Bias on Jesus and "Christianity"
-or-
[what I have learned from being raised in Christian Science, a History BA, three different Bible interpretations, religion documentaries, lots of drugs and an interest in hearing as many accounts of Christ as possible.]
Jesus was a Jewish man who practiced a form of spirituality begat from Judaism and possibly influenced by many other faiths, as there is evidence that he may have traveled around the middle east and Asia (before his thirtieth birthday) learning and sharing wisdom with religious leaders and philosophers. Many consider his worship of God true Judaism or "like it was meant to be practiced" (to quote you Coco) but the past and present Jewish church would disagree.
Others consider it an entire other form of religion, since he was hated by many of the rabbis and his preaching was often considered blasphemy, ("it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than a rich man to get into heaven"--not a favorite.) His ways of speaking greatly distanced himself from the rest of the Jewish church, therefore, many "Christians" consider his practice to be not Jewish, but "Christianity."
I would ask, why did masses of 5,000 people follow him to hear his preachings? From what I've read, my answer is: he actually healed people. By his altruistic philosophy (via action), he had believers from surrounding countries coming to him for healing, not to mention changing water to wine, creating food out of thin air, walking on water, and raising himself from the dead (if you choose to believe those accounts). He also taught his disciples how to do the same, which may dispel the idea that he was the only one capable of such power (as the book of John proselytizes).
Is that Judaism? I don't think so. Is it "Christianity?" I couldn't say the majority of current Christian sects practice what he did. The closest thing I've seen so far is a method called "Christian Science," because instead of seeking miracles (which suggest the impossible happened), you follow a scientific, metaphysical process that results in eventual healing (which utilizes understanding and is very possible). Did he call it that? Of course not. Did he call it Judaism? Definitely not.
If I'm wrong, teach me.
