its been said..children..shall lead us
thus..from the mouth of babes

[his inspiration..was three previous brothers/sisters..
who died..younger than he]

We need to stop.
Just stop.
Stop for a moment.

Before anybody
Says or does anything
That may hurt anyone else.

We need to be silent.
Just silent.
Silent for a moment.

Before we forever lose
The blessing of songs
That grow in our hearts.

We need to notice.
Just notice.
Notice for a moment.
Before the future slips away
Into ashes and dust of humility.

Stop, be silent,..and notice.
In so many ways,..we are the same.
Our differences are unique treasures.

We have, we are,..a mosaic of gifts
To nurture,..to offer,..to accept.
We need to be.

Just be.
Be for a moment.
Kind and gentle,..innocent and trusting,
Like children and lambs,

Never judging or vengeful
Like the judging and vengeful.

And now, let us pray,
Differently, yet together,

Before there is no earth, no life,
No chance for peace.

We are getting into the realm of fairies here.

There are no evil spirits only evil people. Most people are good but not perfect...but true evil (lack of empathy/sociapathy/psychopath) is rare.

Humans are better than that even with their combination of flaws and imperfections.

Hell and heaven exist now? I always find it interesting how pious ppl managed to instill so much fear of God in them. Spirits? They only exist in your mind. If you believe in them, then you have a bigger change of having them in your life.

StG is right, everyone likes to play the blame game. Everything that has happened comes back to you. It is all in your head. The universe, you life, is what you make of it, not what you allow others to make it.

What's the saying. God lives within us...

I truly believe there is no such thing as evil spirits, evil fairies, evil Gods or devils.

There are only evil humans.

Anyone who believes that evil beings 'make us evil' is just kidding themselves.
There is no proof whatsoever.

from wanderor...<<In the spirit world,"said Ahrinziman,.."there are a great number of different schools of thought,..all containing..the great fundamental eternal truths of nature,..

but each differing..in many minor*..details,..and also..as to how these great truths..should be applied for the advancement..of the soul;

they likewise..differ as to how..their respective*.theories..will work out,..and the conclusions to be drawn..from the undoubted knowledge..they possess,..when it is applied..to subjects..upon which they have..no certain knowledge..

and..which are still with them..
as with those on earth,..the subject of speculation,.theory,..and discussion.

It is a mistake to suppose that/in the spirit world of our planet..there is any absolute knowledge..which can explain all the great mysteries of Creation,..the why..and wherefore of our being,..the existence of so much evil..mixed with the good,..or the..nature..of the soul..and how it comes from God.

"The waves of truth..are continually flowing from the great thought centers..of the Universe,..and are..*transmitted to earth..through chains of spirit intelligences,..but each spirit..*can only transmit such portions of truth,,as his development,..has enabled him to understand,

*and each mortal..can only receive as much knowledge..as his intellectual faculties..are able to assimilate..and comprehend.

"Neither spirits..nor mortals..can know everything,..and spirits can only give you...what are the teachings..which their own particular schools of thought..and advanced teachers give as..their explanations.

Beyond this..they cannot go,..for beyond this..they..do not themselves know;..there is..no more absolute certainty..in the spirit
world than on earth,..

and those who assert that they have..the true and..only explanation of these great mysteries..are giving you merely what they..have been taught..by more advanced spirits,

who,..with all due deference to them,..are no more entitled..to speak absolutely..than the most advanced teachers..of some other school.

I assert with knowledge..not my own,..
but from another...>>as do i

please...people
give sources..not opinion?
