Would You?: (Unedited): 04 Dec 2011:

If you could? would you dodge every rain drop that fell? Passing by leafless trees. I see thousands of rain drops glittering in the bare branches. Shining their own rainbow of light and beauty to any passer by to notice. 

If you could? Would you dodge every rain drop that fell? Walking by puddles I see thousands of rain drops plop plopping. Creating their own interesting song in the moment. 

If you could? Would you dodge every rain drop that fell? Standing still and gazing upwards. Rain drops coming from nowhere kissing my face and hands. How can you not smile with the rain drops. 

If you could? Would you?

Be mindful of your own negativity.
Be aware of what you decide is bothersome, irritable and aggravating.
rain is just rain. Snow is just snow. wind is still wind. Fire is still fire. Earth is still Earth.
Do not become angry at the world for your poor planning or your decision of inaction.
The world is what you have allowed it to become. By your decision
The world can still be what you want it to be. Through your new decision and new action.

Flag Importance: (Unedited): 26 Aug 2012:

Standing behind your flag of importance. Is just as important as standing before your flag. Unless, you have been deceived and lied to by the flag of your choosing. C.J.MacKechnie

=====================================================================
The flag of warfare which promises peace is a lie and a deception.
The flag of hatred which promises loves return is a lie and a deception.
The flag of separation which promises togetherness is a lie and a deception.
The flag of difference which promises sameness is a lie and a deception.
Any leader no matter their level or area of interest who uses their innate charisma to convince common people to follow their will by using any of the above promises is a liar and a deceiver.
When you decide to follow them. You have declared allegiance to their flags of lies and deceptions. Even though you may believe it to be gospel truth. Your brain washing is now complete and my words will anger and offend you.
Just like how racism is used as a political, religious and cultural tool to garner support of a particular leader or spokes person. Racism is an absolute lie and deception as proven by the completion of the Human genome project more than 11 years ago.The human genome project proves that all humans have 99.9% identical DNA. Which is not evidence of any real separation of races. The human skin is the same from any one human to the next. The only real difference is the coloring. The human skin is an organ of the whole human body. It is not logical for anyone to separate or isolate any other human being or group of human beings based on a single organ of the human body. We do not separate an isolate any other human being based on tonsils, kidneys, spleen, appendix or liver. If this were logically true than I would belong to the fatty liver race or the race without tonsils.
