A Message From Cm.....

[scoop]

Full moon/Solstice combo today/tomorrow.....there's a ton of energy associated with this event...

Be proud of what you've accomplished. Shed the B S.... it's too easy to cling to. Shit happens....and if it's shit that happens that you can fix or was shit that happened due to choices made.... you can right that shit with new changes.

I've learned the hard way that having a choice makes all of the difference. The really tough stuff comes without choices and without alternative paths to walk. It's that kinda >>>>Shit<<<< you gotta face head on and nothing you do changes any of it. Deep shit. The only good thing about facing such (no choice) shit head on is that it makes all of the other shit look like a fuckin' cake walk.

Like George sang....

"All Things Must Pass"

Sunrise doesn't last all morning
A cloudburst doesn't last all day
Seems my love is up and has left you with no warning
It's not always going to be this grey

All things must pass
All things must pass away

Sunset doesn't last all evening
A mind can blow those clouds away
After all this, my love is up and must be leaving
It's not always going to be this grey

All things must pass
All things must pass away
All things must pass
None of life's strings can last
So, I must be on my way
And face another day

Now the darkness only stays the night-time
In the morning it will fade away
Daylight is good at arriving at the right time
It's not always going to be this grey

All things must pass
All things must pass away
All things must pass
All things must pass away

Thanks mate..
Compared to your loss of son this is nothing...
That's some really really tough stuff.
I give so much of myself at times I forget to just stop and smell the roses...
At times take on way way too much..
I start shit then without completing go do something else...
Stuff is piled up that needs to be done but WTF it's only stuff and it can wait..
The plumbing issue we have is major, but I got good folks to help who are willing to barter their time for my time showing them the river, how sweet is that......
How sweet is my lovely wife who puts up with my shit..
How sweet is the love and care I give to our livestock and gardens, I am their God and am responsible for a good life for them and in turn they nourish us....
I will look all around and feel all the vibes.
So much love all around just be glad I am alive.
You guys are very special.
We have in common the lifestyle we choose that came from hard work and dreams coming true..
Our wives are just amazing how did we get so lucky???
Thanks for the pep talk, real friends pull each other up in times of frustration..
I know too we have been an inspiration to you all as well.
Wow what you guys have done is beyond amazing and we are so happy for you..
Keep on keeping on, count blessings, seek courage and strength to carry on..
Life is too short to worry over situations out of hand...

16 more dead last night..
cat diarrhea all over the house..
when it rains it pours..
will set traps and kill whatever is getting them.

What died on ya cman? Chicks?

Like I said man...SHIT happens!

It's a tough way to come by it...but the one gift my son gave me by leaving this planet is to know when to cut bait and simply walk away.... and how to see through the junk most people are focused on that truly means nothing in the scheme of things...

"just draw a bead on that sucker....and DRIVE...."
