Save

For what profiteth a man, if he gains the whole world, yet loses his eternal life.......

Relaxed and alone I lay without thinking then you come to me in golden glowing beams weaving into my consciousness your supreme presence that I cannot deny or resist I hearken to the call amid hues of blue take me to that place I plead, show me what you you need me to know take me on that journey I've missed you Drawn deep out into the cosmos stars twinkling all around I delight in the journey hoping it will never end You show me a golden pyramid afar yet glowing bright descending down down down And then you are gone... I am left alone with much to contemplate many thoughts come to mind of what you meant Would should I do with such knowledge though I know you will reveal Again you come to me in like manner though without the splendid journey showing me that self same pyramid in all it's splendour shining in magnificence resting upon the earth It shines for a time glowing from inside out like a light in a tent this house of riches tomb of yesteryear prepared for the dead with all the treasures stockpiled in readiness Suddenly the golden light is gone out, all is black, it is over!

Peace and love to you all, to all mankind, may the almighty dollar not rule your lives, for it is as has been said so many time, the root of all evil!

Amen, Ch'erie.

Ty for reading my write dear friends.
Ed, Australia does not have a dollar bill! We have a dollar coin, and our dollar measures approx $1.27 to the US $1.00, on the current exchange rate to date, which fluctuates daily.
For example, a bronze membership at AD, which is $24.95, costs us here in Australia, a total of $44.00 approx. Quite a stark difference in the exchange rate eh.
Our dollar isnt worth squat against the greenback :)
Peace and love to you all, to all mankind, may the almighty dollar not rule your lives, for it is as has been said so many time, the root of all evil!
Love In HIM

What an excellent summary, and one with which I agree wholeheartedly!

And the question you pose in the 4th stanza - "what should I do with such knowledge" is quite sobering indeed! Many fail here miserably!

Indeed. Thousands of years later, those who were entombed are still alive in our minds. How many billions of others that came before and after them meerly turned to dust, with all their glory, splendor, knowledge, learning lost into the cosmos, never to be known or found.
