The Voice of God,

   And the voiced bellowed with such a deep resonance, that it echoed deep into the mines of the earth. The land is troubled, by those who make their living on trouble. The Lord knows, the Lord knows all. Imagine knowing every thing, that would be a lot. What does one do with such knowledge? 

  Who can rescue us from this island, it is alone we each one will walk. Some times loneliness brings on a good thing.  

Stupid

   The way of bewilderment, but not yet befuddled. It's a state of flux, and is a common state of mind. Not yet lost, just betwixt and between. Each of us must walk it, and often times, the walls of our private voyage through whatever fear we face, can seem to be as the valley of the shadow of death. The canyon walls of this lush valley floor are mirrored. When walking it, whether you look left or you look right, all you see is you. We chose this valley to walk, but hadn't figured on the mirrors. Even the most arrogant among us get tired of being the point of focus. Eventually our self gaze makes us uncomfortable, and we want to look away. Some of us try looking up and focussing on the beauty of the day, but the down side is that by doing so, causes unnecessary stumbling over things at foot.  Inevitably, most will choose instead to look down. 

  Once you come to the realization that now you're always looking down, and, that looking at life in that way brings about anxiety and depression, you want a different path.  Always the better gaze is forward and centered. An old term comes to mind for a lot of reasons, but what is needed in those moments require a level headedness. Things get easily out of hand once common sense is abandoned. The latest fad has been dubbed by the press simply as "teen fighting." This is just the latest of examples of a society gone wrong. Doesn't matter if you are on the red team or the blue, we all should never except it and allow the violence. But as for the reasons why, remember your own childhood when you were a teen ager? Being honest you know that we all did some really dumb stuff when we were teens. Call it what you will, but generally speaking, teens are stupid.      

Frankly my Friend,

   It looks to be another beautiful day here in downtown Metropolis. Batman was still hanging in Gotham City, his whereabouts unknown? In the city of Gotham, the residents of the city put the safety of their people into being able to call him at anytime with the shadow of a bat in the sky. The two cities had always gotten along even though their faith of their protector, made their images sent skyward and shinning on the night's sky different to say the least. 

  The people of Metropolis also shined a spotlight into the night sky when they were afraid and so flashed their sign into the sky. Their signal was of a white hot burning cross into the the darkness of the night. The problem for those across the river was that the spectacle was too powerful to bright! So bright in fact that it seemed to rip the night sky in two. Power and Majesty thundered and sounded all around, it was a shared experience, and none could deny of experiencing it. 

  Soon the Gothumites started to feel inferior to their neighbors, which led to anxiety, and from anxiety fear and anger. And with anger always just beneath the surface, eventually bubbling up to rage! Rage is ugly, and not the way ahead. An atmosphere like this, that needs only a spark to ignite.  

  Moral of the story? Be a proud Gothonian, but thank God that He has made a way which is the Way, for all to come, He would turn none away< all are welcome at our table. A gain I say come, come the only way, come the best way, come with the way and of the truth, choose the way of Life.
