 Telepathy Will Change Your Life (Book) - 5/21/2012 8:38:48 PM
I found this book to be very straightforward and helpful, a good guide.
 The Telepathists (Book) - 4/14/2012 9:45:27 AM
My personal review is: Love the beginning of this story. I had to put the book as Science Fiction because of the story. But the second part of the book has more inventive ways to progress in your telepathic studies. Enjoy this book. The next one will be all about The Telepathists.
 Telepathy Will Change Your Life (Book) - 8/27/2011 8:33:59 AM
I love helping people achieve their goals. This book is the beginning book in what turns into a long series on how the sending of thoughts to others may be a benefit for all. Enjoy this book and the future books in the telepathy series.
Age Retirement What it means to me (Short Story) - 1/2/2020 1:13:35 AM
Interesting Read, although may or may not fit every retiree, I am thinking Never stop writing ! m

Age Retirement What it means to me (Short Story) - 10/12/2015 12:01:49 AM
You've covered every aspect imaginable in your truthful article. I might just be in the minority, but I love retirement because none of the above applies to me. Now, you have to ask yourself: Is she in denial? Or, is she telling the truth? Wink ...

Age Retirement What it means to me (Short Story) - 2/27/2012 10:11:14 AM
This was beautiful...and quite educational. I'm dying to retire but don't have the money and it's these types of stories I hear from people that tell me....I'm not missing a darn thing. (Would still like to get rid of by boss though) Live long and prosper. :-) Mary

Age Retirement What it means to me (Short Story) - 2/26/2012 5:10:34 PM
"That all my hard work would pay off...do my homework and get good grades...college and expect the good life...marriage and children..." As with all of life...all of this only an illusion, yes- only an illusion.. as you have so carefully defined. good work... of this acknowledgement!

Globalization (Article) - 5/2/2017 5:45:34 AM
I wish to comment. Over 800 people have viewed and hopefully read this piece. It would be nice to have feedback. Yeah or nays are both accepted. I learn from you.

The Store Detective (Article) - 6/7/2011 10:56:18 AM
My only comment is there are a couple of glaring errors but I am not going to correct them right now. When I expand upon this story they will be corrected. I hope anyone reading enjoys this story.

Dimensional Update (Poetry) - 5/4/2023 12:15:01 PM
Thanks for the lesson in dimension hopping. The only dimensions that I'm able to reach are my dreams and daydreams. Invariably, like "talking to all my past lovers," they are from an earthly past, not necessarily mine. And rarely involve future technical developments, unless I am seeking a solution for a future problem and I can easily come up with that without resorting to another dimension. They are right in front of us in this world. Ron

I appreciate and thank all reviewers. Reviewing encourages others to write. John Domino, just wanted to say my daughter and her husband are in the Air Force. Serving now.

I am God's Rose (Poetry) - 5/4/2022 9:18:07 AM
A rose, sent to bless the world. Lovely revelation.

I am God's Rose (Poetry) - 5/1/2022 4:19:26 AM
lol, God's Rose, I totally understand this to the bone, Have a precious day, may your scent permeate through out the world, and bring them the seeds of compassion, healing, and most of all love, have a precious day, dear healer, Much love xo

I am God's Rose (Poetry) - 4/30/2022 10:46:53 AM
One of my friends has recently told me that her dog has passed to the other side. On the 7th day after the dog passed my friend dreamed about her dog coming back to see her. She said it was nighttime, but she was still awake. A bright light came in through the open window. She was so happy to see her dog Asia come in through the window as if she was still alive. She said it was so real because she was still awake. Asia came into the room to bring her to the other side. She said they've followed the light and even though she was not physically on the other side the happiness she got from just travelling in between was out of this world's happiness. She said she could not explain the sort of happiness she felt because there were no words in this world that could express the kind of happiness that she felt. Later, she was back in her room, but she was glad to know that her dog Asia has gone into a happy world. Sandie

I am God's Rose (Poetry) - 4/29/2022 11:06:56 AM
It is admirable to be able to travel to other dimensions. But do you ever get confused as to which dimension you are on? I prefer to travel the rich tapestry of this dimension and not look to other dimensions. If I go small it gets nearly infinite well beyond quarks where everything gets fuzzy and is moving rapidly, even the strongest steel. As I look larger the universe looks infinite until I reach the source of the Big Bang and can go no further. But on either end of this vast scale of a single dimension, I do not concern myself. I find wonder and joy within what I can see, hear, feel and wonder with my aging and declining sensors. Absolutely no desire to jump this ship with all international offer. Ron

Bring Back My Father of Dimensional Realms (Poetry) - 3/1/2022 3:18:19 PM
An amazing poem where spiritual realms are explored… Healing is possible, and energy is an important feature… I hope there are more of these wonderful adventures to share from you as a dimensional spirit… My best wishes, Diana..🍃

Meow (Poetry) - 2/12/2022 12:37:36 AM
That's a typical bossy cat that comes to life through the wonderment of your pen. Sandie

Bring Back My Father of Dimensional Realms (Poetry) - 2/12/2022 12:32:32 AM
I like this a LOT!!! I'm so glad I did not miss this poem, I almost did! And I know the one whom you call "Father" is not the father who Ron has in his mind. The one whom you call "A Dimensional Father" is the sum of everything spiritual that you feel it within you. Sandie

Bring Back My Father of Dimensional Realms (Poetry) - 2/9/2022 9:57:10 AM
Your dreams are certainly vivid, crossing the lines of dimensions. But I would be careful of fatherly love, it is incestuous. Ron

I Felt Your Fingertips (Poetry) - 12/22/2021 6:17:10 PM
Ah, very deep and dearly heart felt dear poet, Thank you for sharing the affection. :)

I Felt Your Fingertips (Poetry) - 12/22/2021 9:28:19 AM
So good to see you posting again. And this poem, so personal and sensitive, relating a lifetime of friendship. The kind of agape love that last well beyond the fervor of first love. So well written that it conveys your thoughts of receiving that letter perfectly. May you get back together with him before you post leave this phase of your lives apart but together. Ron

Fear (Poetry) - 10/28/2021 3:13:42 PM
Beautiful and filled with inner courage , thank you for sharing this

Fear (Poetry) - 9/25/2021 10:59:29 AM
Fear as you say can stun you, and can stop accomplishment… It can also be very insidious,,, There are many faces of fear…but Hope and Love are always sound antidotes… ‘Gather your weeds in your garden and burn them, allow the flowers of no fear to prosper and grow tall…” Very good advice… Best wishes, Diana…🌷

Fear (Poetry) - 9/13/2021 11:42:05 AM
There is a lot breeding unnatural fear these days. So I appreciate your poem all the more. I'm with you all the way in every word that you wrote. So much of the anger that we see is actually driven by fear. For fear makes those people act inappropriately, thinking they will eliminate that fear by taking action that really just sets society back like it always has in the past. Psychology tells us that we are born with with only two fears: the fear of loud noises and the fear of falling. Lately, while in a light sleep, I will have a full body or strong leg spasm that is real, but results in a dream of me flying off the bed, generally into dire circumstance like crushing a small child or a small pet as I land uncontrollably. Just before the dire thing happens, I'll wake and find that I am still in the same place I was in the bed. Although the fear of my falling and hurting myself or someone else seems very real. Thankfully, I have begun to recognize this dream while it is in progress and can easily snap out of it. Ron

Ghosts of Times Past (Poetry) - 4/17/2021 8:52:46 AM
Some interesting thoughts upon others who have gone before and rest on our minds like ghosts waiting for us to come to them. Ron

Floating to Another Dimension (Poetry) - 3/11/2021 10:27:34 AM
It takes some real imagination to jump from dimension to dimension like you are describing in this poem. "Pop goes the weasel…" And you are there. Ron

God is my Gun (Poetry) - 3/4/2021 12:35:48 PM
I TOO '...LOOK TO THE HILLS FROM WHENCE COMES MY HELP...', I TOO HAVE LEARNED TO 'BE STILL' AND REALIZE '...THE BATTLE IS NOT MINE BUT GOD'S...'. VIOLENCE AND KILLING HAS NEVER SOLVED ANYTHING. LEANING ON GOD IS NOT EASY BUT HE IS '...THE WAY, THE TRUTH AND THE LIGHT...'. BUT THEN, WE ARE STEPPING INTO THE 'END-TIMES' AND WE CAN EXPECT ANYTHING TO HAPPEN AS BIBLICAL PROPHECY IS SEEN AS 'BLIND' HUMANITY DESTROYS ITSELF AND THE ENTIRE PLANET. NOT A PRETTY OUTLOOK, ON THE SURFACE THAT IS...HOWEVER, WHEN OUR REDEEMER RETURNS FOR US AND WE FLY TO OUR ETERNAL HOME, EVERYTHING WE'VE ENDURED DOWN HERE WILL BE MORE THAN WORTH THE REWARDS WE RECEIVE UP THERE! MEAN WHILE...WE WATCH, AND PRAY AND DEPEND ON ALMIGHTY GOD! THANKS FOR SHARING THIS KEEPER. LOVE, BLESSINGS AND FAITH...HIS+INSPIRATIONS.

God is my Gun (Poetry) - 2/15/2021 8:25:12 AM
Gun ownership is not for war, though it may come to that. We have guns to protect us from tyranny. Every time a government took away the citizens' right to bear arms they rendered them helpless to defend themselves from an evil government. Lose our guns we lose our country and our own freedoms. Take a look at how many people were executed and just shot down by tyrants because they had no way to protect themselves. It's a nice sentiment but through the ages good people have had to fight for liberty. Earthly freedom is not free.

God is my Gun (Poetry) - 2/5/2021 10:33:54 AM
I agree with you. Time to put up our guns for killing except for food. War is not justified for solving our problems. Ron

A Drift Between Many Worlds (Poetry) - 7/13/2020 3:32:44 PM
I do believe in Multi dimensions and ascensions too. Astro traveling and interconnectedness with other beings, lol, I'm a mystic to the bone, thank you for your brave poem, it takes alot of courage to reveal yourself , thank you for sharing . This was a delight to read , from a fellow soul sentient to another, safe travels my dear xo

A Drift Between Many Worlds (Poetry) - 7/7/2020 7:59:45 AM
Thank you for the review Ron. But it is not escapism ... my travels are to learn and share what I have discovered from one dimension to another.

A Drift Between Many Worlds (Poetry) - 7/5/2020 10:55:59 AM
The mind is a wondrous thing. In this case, your mind wanders other dimensions in search of something. Why not just stay here and make things better? I guess escapism is easier than dealing with reality every day. Ron

Dimensional Crawl, Walk, and Streaming Flight (Poetry) - 6/30/2020 6:05:34 AM
I agree. Cats have a sweet soul like another dimension. Perhaps the see things we only dream of....

Sir Francis Drake Be My Name (Poetry) - 3/17/2020 5:10:22 AM
You are a very gifted writer, I have enjoyed reading your words today, Thank you for your kind visit, Blessings, from my heart to yours.

Meeting God (Poetry) - 1/2/2020 1:07:16 AM
Praise the Lord! Lovely testimony to the Love of God, and his keeping watch over us. Never stop writing ! m

Meeting God (Poetry) - 12/22/2019 6:37:58 PM
Thank you for sharing your incredible story. Sometimes we have to come close to death to experience eternal life! Why is it that way? Why do folks wait so long? Then others just brag about how they can make it on their own lonesome selves until they get a call from hell? Jesus saved me a long time ago but every day is a BRAND NEW day! I am thankful in so many ways. Merry Christmas to you! Amen!

Sir Francis Drake Be My Name (Poetry) - 12/11/2019 10:49:34 AM
A very interesting retro written story poem from a famous entrepreneur and privateer for the Queen of England, Sir Francis Drake. Along the way creating many injustices in an effort to conceal riches from even his closest shipmates. It's interesting to see how long that secrecy will hold out against modern treasure hunting techniques. Ron

Thankful that my father was a Dimensional Walker (Poetry) - 11/27/2019 4:36:52 PM
Dear Ron Hull, Thank you for your opinion review. This poem, in my mind, is more religious than having my father leave my mother. He died in 1959. Religious with thoughts I have about aliens and Science Fiction possibilities.

Thankful that my father was a Dimensional Walker (Poetry) - 11/27/2019 10:55:53 AM
I take it that your father left you in your mother's womb and never returned. Nice guy. I would never do that to any child of mine. May you truly be able to cross over into other dimensions and hopefully find your father one day. That would be Thanksgiving Day, indeed. Ron

Ole Man Cat Came Home (Poetry) - 6/24/2017 11:14:23 PM
Cats do seem to live past their time. Mixed breeds seem to do the best! I wonder if this is true for humans? Perhaps... Well done D E Z!

Ole Man Cat Came Home (Poetry) - 6/23/2017 8:50:49 AM
so true the soul ain't dead

Ole Man Cat Came Home (Poetry) - 6/23/2017 6:19:26 AM
That is one cataclysm of a poem. Looks like you can't get rid of him because though dead he is still working on his nine lives. Ron

That Ole Man Cat (Poetry) - 6/22/2017 4:21:31 PM
This was written with tender loving care in each and every line.

A Time for You and Me (Poetry) - 6/9/2017 10:58:26 AM
Yes, D. it seems we are revolving at times but when one has a partner who has always been there for you it is all worth it. Always, Deborah

A Time for You and Me (Poetry) - 6/4/2017 4:03:16 AM
Life is not always kind, but having a good relationship helps get one through. And as life evolves the way it does, the end must come and one must face the loss of the other. I recall the story of great-grandparents I never knew who lived into their 90s together. Both died within a week of one another. Ron

A Time for You and Me (Poetry) - 6/3/2017 8:53:34 AM
Sounds like my marriage, in 43 years we've both faced life threatening situations but each has pulled the other through. I think part of the human tragedy is that in such relationships, one half must leave first

Meow (Poetry) - 5/23/2017 6:28:02 AM
It's a cat's life. Some humans are such good providers a cat can live the life without the effort… Cool. Ron

Meow (Poetry) - 5/22/2017 6:17:27 AM
I've always heard it said, that we don't own cats, they own us. I have to keep our cat's food dish full. If i let it get empty and then put food in it, she will gorge herself and then puke up undigested cat food. But still, I prefer cats over dogs, and we have both.

Meow (Poetry) - 5/22/2017 4:30:08 AM
Great heart you have for Blackie and cats like her. Truly enjoyed from one cat lover to another. We may never understand them but the mystic majestic sweetness of their cat eyes leaves us mystified. Well done DEZ!

A Day For Life (Poetry) - 8/2/2016 11:46:39 AM
Great that someone has a relationship these days, that is so great.

A Day For Life (Poetry) - 7/14/2016 11:45:52 AM
Thank you Ron. You always give clear insight with your reviews. The best to you.

A Day For Life (Poetry) - 7/14/2016 7:26:39 AM
Very interesting and revealing. The person of interest in this poem will find it very heartening from the sincerity expressed. Ron

Kinland (Poetry) - 5/27/2016 2:11:44 PM

A Time to Hurry (Poetry) - 5/27/2016 2:11:09 PM

A Time to Hurry (Poetry) - 10/30/2015 5:49:22 PM
Thank you Ron.....

A Time to Hurry (Poetry) - 10/30/2015 7:00:28 AM
Wonderful advice for the younger generation in a poem. Bravo! Ron

Perched (Poetry) - 10/28/2015 7:55:14 AM
Left me wondering…? Ron

I Cried (Poetry) - 3/25/2015 8:17:19 AM
A meaningful and moving sharing, D.E.Z. Thank you. Love and best wishes to you, Regis

I Cried (Poetry) - 2/17/2014 9:31:50 AM
Your poem expressed a sad moment that is felt by you. Sometimes we would let our emotions lead us, and we would cry for everything that needs crying about, and even those that aren't even worth our tears we cry about them too. It's a good therapy to rid of any sadness within us. Animals can feel our sadness. Whenever I feel sad, or being sick my cat would always clings close to me to give me comfort. Our pets know us and know when to protect us. Sandie

I Cried (Poetry) - 2/17/2014 7:21:24 AM
A truly unique offering. Since cats lives are very short, chances are that very few cats will outlive their owners. In my cousin's case, her twin sister died, so she continued to care for both her two poodles and those of her sister who had asked for and got two poodles as well. When my cousin died, four poodles bravely protected her body on the bed. They comforted her until the very end. Ron

I Cried (Poetry) - 2/16/2014 12:07:41 PM
Unfortunately, we all are here on a temporary basis. Your cat though will see you through more days. Beautiful and poignant write. Liz

I Cried (Poetry) - 2/16/2014 11:06:49 AM
D.E.Z., A powerful poem that made me cry. I lost my precious little dog 3 months tomorrow. He used to comfort me too, just as your sweet cat did. Oh how I miss my baby. I had him 11 years. Give your cat an extra hug today. You still have him. God bless. Love and blessings, Linda+

I Cried (Poetry) - 2/16/2014 9:42:21 AM
this write is so well penned budd

I Played Your Dance (Poetry) - 10/22/2012 9:44:57 AM
Yes, I can relate to what you express in these verses. The theme is sadly a universal and timeless one in this world/life. Thank you for sharing. Love and best wishes, Regis

One Fine Night (Poetry) - 10/22/2012 9:42:58 AM
Truly a compelling write that awakens the emotions and the senses. Thank you for sharing. Love and best wishes to you, Regis

One Fine Night (Poetry) - 10/21/2012 10:35:13 AM
There is a darkness to this poem that leaves me to believe it might be from the Twilight series. Ron

I Played Your Dance (Poetry) - 8/21/2012 2:00:43 PM
So poignant and soulfelt.

I Played Your Dance (Poetry) - 8/19/2012 9:34:58 AM
It is frustration at the outcome of this dance that would come to bear no more fruit. Excellent piece, D.E.Z.

I Played Your Dance (Poetry) - 8/15/2012 10:21:12 AM
Got me thinking about an old girlfriend–we were dancing fools. But then I see that your poem is a metaphor for a controlling relationship that you were in until the music died. Ron

Kinland (Poetry) - 6/24/2012 10:54:04 PM
kinland, hmmm...the soil from which we came...is so different for us all, inhabited by so many different 'things'...some very good, some very bad. i'll go there some day, but not...now. thanks for sharing asa

Kinland (Poetry) - 6/20/2012 9:56:49 AM
I see Ronald that you identify with the word "kin". Our ancestors are important and I always want to give them the respect they deserve. This little poem is just my beginning to honor them.

Kinland (Poetry) - 6/20/2012 7:18:08 AM
I spent seven wonderful years in West Virginia. Living there builds character. My kin from Wisconsin and a pretty bland lot. My mother has been a major communicator for the family, and so have I. Unfortunately, most of the extended family only communicate to their immediate families, are working stiffs, and quite boring. It is only our ancestors are interesting and they are dying off quite quickly. Ron

My Fate (Poetry) - 5/16/2012 2:25:01 PM
Thank you The Lily of Lough Neagh, and Ronald Hull, and Richard Cederberg. Our fates came together here so I, must once again know my fate is alive in the minds of others.

My Fate (Poetry) - 5/16/2012 10:35:30 AM
Exchange fate for your life path... we all have one, what we endure helps create who we are. For your guide is always ever near keeping you strong and learning. Very nice prose Love and Light Lily

Father (Poetry) - 2/29/2012 10:47:17 AM
In a child's eyes, fathers are always perfect. You reflect very well. Ron

Father (Poetry) - 2/29/2012 7:03:36 AM
Nice write...beautiful memories

My Fate (Poetry) - 2/28/2012 11:15:41 AM
We are all a product of fate. But above and beyond that, we can affect our future by the choices we make. The worst thing we can do is to let things happen and then blame it on fate. As your opponent eloquently describes, we are in charge of our own fate. Ron

My Fate (Poetry) - 2/27/2012 1:37:07 PM
Most dictionaries define fate as an event, or course of events, that will inevitably happen in the future, or your overall circumstances or condition in life. But if you journey towards your fate as you postulate, then you are invariably living IN your fate; something I believe to be true. Consider each moment is ahead of the last and behind the next. In other words: the future is the now is the future. This making fate not so much a destination as an environment our freewill and circumstance (or the ripples that others create around us) has created that we continually flow through; the here and now of existence. I don't believe our fate is circumscribed or predetermined. I will not belabor this. Your insight certainly has philosophical (and some spiritual) merit, (kudos) and could be discussed ad infinitum. I enjoy anything that stimulates the synapses, truly! Consider, if you will, a group of people in a circle around the same tree holding hands. Each person sees, or perceives, a different part of the same reality, (the tree) and the only way you can get a more exhaustive understanding (of its totality) is to change places with someone. I enjoyed your thoughts. peace to you ... richard

Flicker (Poetry) - 2/14/2012 1:25:58 PM
Your poem does not flicker, it burns with emotion. May your fire never burn out. Ron
