Death...is it really the end???

Felicitations!

Okay, today's topic is pretty heavy...for as long as society can remember, we have always had this fear of Death...fear of what is ahead of us after the journey is over on this earth....now for some of us who have faith in a higher power, it is simple...we move on to the next plane of existance...heaven, the greener pasture, elysian fields, the good/happy hunting ground, the land over the ridge...etc...for those with no faith...they have this whole "we are going down or just not anywhere" outlook...just so glum...its so strange, they go about life worried about little things and not the things that matter...we should start to...or at least they should start to...and its okay to be afraid...but there has to be a point in life where all fears must be put aside...someday, they have to come to terms with everything...and for those who believe that there is only one way, there isn't...God created mulitple ways...each religion has its own way of believing in a higher power, in a creator, in god...that's just fact...you know, how many people avoid death because they don't have a higher power??? Its hard to go through life without a guide, but never stray to what is going to hurt you or what makes you feel bad or evil...stick with what you know and how you were taught...if you were raised catholic, baptist, methodist, lutheran, traditional, buddhist, etc...whatever your religion, embrace it...we need faith...

Personally, I believe in a higher power, I believe in two faiths, because I come from two worlds...I am part white and native american, I cannot change that, and I know there has to be a reason why...I feel empowered through my faith, it carried me through everything and it helps me with my creativity...all gifts that I think are god given...its awesome...but to tell you the truth, I can honestly say that half of my life for about a good ten years of it, I was raised in the christian faith, the other ten I was also raised in the lakota traditional ways....I can truly say that I am a child of both worlds...I am balanced but also on a journey...self discovery is on the way...opening up everyday and making ways for me to succeed...

I guess, what I am trying to say is that death is inevitable...but faith can make it easier...find that center...make that choice to believe...find your faith again if you lost it, just make the way back...then once you have conquered your fear, you will conquer death...so here it is...my big topic today...and this was brought on by the recent deaths in my life that have taken place...but we need to live...if we do not live, where is the sense of everything???

I can't wait till my time here is over in this life...I get to be with all my family and my friends again...I get to sing with my brother Wayne again...play with my sisters, dance with them, just be with them...I want to live for them...so I do...I use all my gifts, my talents, and my passions to survive...to show them that its okay...and that life will go on...I can only hope to pass on this outlook to my children, when I have them...something to share...but that is for then...

So til then, it looks like I get to be here, blog, write, do my thing and other stuff...and so I get more inspiration...this novel I finish, I will do so with love and the best of my ability...its going to rock...

okay...deep time over...but I just want to put up a pic of the person waiting for me on the otherside...I miss my brother so much, but I can't wait til my journey is over...

so check him out...and I can't wait til the end of my journey...

so thats it for the deep part!

I will post a little later in better spirits...

til then my freaky darlings...
