I think it is time I come out from the shadows
I've been watching and learning about humanity. I've always wondered why I was put on this earth and I think it is time I come out. If you seek me I am here. Who I am? I am a spirit that has embedded this earth during it's time of need.

I am the passion, the anger, and the pain. I am the soul. I am a person who has the ability to change the course and future of this planet. I'm not powerful. I'm not even special, but if you seek me I am here.

I have been hiding and watching both sides. Republican and Democratic means nothing to me. I watched the process of you fighting for a nation. I watched each side closely because I had a reason to watch. I've been a shadow, but now I will be the light. If you seek me I am here.

Sounds like you been spending some time all by your lonesome. If you want us to understand you, you have to speak more than ambiguous aphorisms.

If you're ready to come out, we're here to hear what you have to say.

22. Logic and reason
I never said I was Jesus. I only said I am a spirit. I never claimed to be anything but a human. Right now we are a nation and a people torn a part. You base your ideas on the logic of a party. Remember I said I was no body special, but I do have the ability to lead.

Right now many of you are torn apart or have the feeling of hate or rage. A spirit isn't always the spiritual term, but a passion. My spirit is the ability to learn and grow. I have a passion for understanding and ability to change. I'll be the first to admit I'm not Jesus or a God, but I believe I am someone with the power to change the heart of humanity.

25. Is spelling really that much of a problem?
You are focusing in on spelling and missing the message. The message is that ALL OF YOU right now have the passion and ability to change. All of you can step up and lead this nation. Living is a lesson and life is the course of all knowledge.

28. Because I'm trying to make a point that all of you have the ability
to stand stronger then ever and stand above any party. The point of this message is that we are not a party, but the American people. The time to stand up and lead is now. Stop being depressed and find that same passion that our founding fathers had!

37. First what did we learn from this election?
We learned that unless we change our ideas and ways of dealing with the right-wing we won't win. We also learned that we are not defeated, but we are changing. The message is we can all change and grow stronger. You also have the ability to lead as well!

AIndependentTexan I get it, I really do. You're right - and if we all dont "get" this we wont win.

We "misunderestimated" the enemy and its spirit. We played the middle and lost.

There is a storm comming... It will be a revolution, pain, suffering, all of it.

52. Yes, you seem to understand
what this is really all about.

Obviously bringing light and understanding to others is not going to be all that easy. Most people are still too closed to receive such ideas yet. I think we have a lot of work to do in the days and weeks ahead?

It is nice to know there are at least a few others who can see reality. I hope in time there will be many more.


Peace be with you

69. Thanks for the post ; weird, but thought provoking...We as a nation are
schizophrenic, and the current administration has only furthered the division of America's soul, because it has made all issues of value, and morality its own...but for those with ears to hear, and eyes to see, the foundation is based on falsehood, and must eventually collapse on itself.

How many of you really believe B* is "Christian?" How many of you think that support for the unborn is good, but the death penalty and war with Iraq is good at the same time, that trilions of unborn fetuses are more important than the 100,000 Iraqis civilian deaths,
that the right to bear arms (to kill others) is good, but stem cell research which would help the living is evil, and that pandering to the wealthy and corporations is greater than helping the poor and those who need our compassion and aid?

If this is the Moral Majority, then may God have mercy on us as a Nation. In one of Thucydide's speeches, it was stated that "Truth is simple, but when evil has to defend itself, all manner of speech is employed to uphold it." Maybe this is why the Democratic Party has always been of much greater moral value to me, than those who would falsely take claim to a moral victory...You cannot have lying criminals upholding truth; you cannot have deceitful people legitimatley winning elections...You cannot support freedom while supressing it...You cannot be Christian while practicing UnChristianity.
