Student Teacher: (Unedited): 01 March 2015:

In every place in which you travel. You are both the student and teacher. In every situation you find yourself in. You are both learning and teaching the lesson. Even if you are unaware. So have an aware mind and a compassionate heart. Internalize the positive lesson and outwardly express positive attitudes.  
C.J.MacKechnie
=============================
Each and every human being is an ambassador within this life.  Are you or have you been an ambassador for love or for hatred? For peace or for war? For harmony or for chaos? for righteousness or for evil doings? For life or for death?
Or are you one of those who can pretend to be good or bad depending on which way profits you more. You know what I mean. Out of Chaos comes peace or out of created chaos comes orchestrated peace. Who is the conductor? and how is it that the conductor cares not for who or how many suffer and die?
 =========================
Life becomes better for everyone on this planet. If we all learn those important things in life. The true meaning of life and how to be aware of the spirit which can lead us or control us unaware. Even those living human/angelic gods were controlled until they died. 
=========================
The unaware and apathetic go through life as simple mascots of the conductor to this world. These mascots go through their lives out of control and powerless for any kind of change. This self imposed helplessness or pseudo-cowardice. Creates for themselves a cage like mentality and that is all that it is. A mental cage for the mind which prevent any sort of evolution or human betterment. This self imposed helplessness even enhances the latent animalistic nature within each one of us. Thus, causing the helpless person to even de-evolve back down into their primal sub-human animal. From that mentality, the body becomes what it believes.

Lost One Celebration: (Unedited): 28 Feb 2015:

The lost ones who find something that another has lost. Joyfully celebrates equally when the lost object is re-united with it's owner. 
C.J.MacKechnie
=================================
 I was at The Crab Shack last night. One of the regulars immediately went into action to find a lost ring of a non-regular customer. She found the large (to me) single stone engagement ring. The ring was returned to the searching customer who was trying to find it in the darkened parking lot. There was celebration by both. Honesty and excitement. Worry turns into confusion and then thankfulness.
----------------------
Some people who rarely see any form of honesty in their lives or even expect it. They may even become temporarily confused at the efforts made by strangers. Sometimes which should be all of the time. A simple expression of gratitude should all that is given. No monetary rewards should ever be expected to repay a kindness.
When the customer did leave. There were hugs. 
----------------------
The event was profound for the person. Her hands shaking as she put on the ring.
The event was even profound for the ring finder. She needed this feel good victory. It was awesome to witness. Even though I do not drink. I bought her a congratulatory beer. Hugged her neck as I left.

Spirit Lifting Souls: (Unedited): 28 Feb 2015:

The disharmony of many tortured souls coming together. Can create their own spirit lifting joyful song of celebration. 
C.J.MacKechnie
============================
There will always be a time when the abuses and tortures end forever. When that time comes celebrate your freedom. Celebrate this new beginning of your life. Celebrate with others who have had similar experiences as you had.
Do not relive those awful things but understand that you were the stronger one. That you endured it all. That is was never about you. You were just the body present and if it weren't you it would have been someone else.
So celebrate your victory. Make new life goals and achieve them. Then make more goals and achieve those. Then repeat.
Then write that book and publish it. Even if your only readers is to be your own family and friends. Tell that story of yours. It is that important. Just as you have always been that important. Even in those very dark, ugly and lonely times of your life. Document everything.
Celebrate life. Forgive them. Move on into joy.

Your Final Moment: (Unedited): 28 Feb 2015:

In those final moments when you realize all is lost. Know that you are not lost. In those last moments all of the heroics that you can manifest shall. 
C.J.MacKechnie
======================
How do you define those final moments? Can you be in that last great battle in which all shall be lost and your efforts not remembered. In that unpredicted massive accident in which you save a life or many and yet lose yours. Maybe that accident is not so massive and yet your physical life is still lost.
Your in your own death bed waiting for the absolute end of your physical bodies life. What is it that you can do in those last moments. Cry out for more drugs? Remain angry? selfishly reliving your life's negativity and mistakes? proclaim all of your hatreds for those who have done you wrong? Quickly alter your will in some last defiant act of revenge?
or do you take your last stand with honor and in those respected positive lessons to be learned by those who remain physically alive after your body has merely stopped working.
These last and final moments of your life can become something incredibly profound and meaningful. All you have to do is take those last actions by running into the fire to save the last one. All you have to do is apologize with intended admission. All you have to do is forgive those who have done you wrong. All you have to do is give those positive instructions/directions in life to each one who is to physically survive you.
In those final moments even a child can have a very profound impact upon their parents. A child can be remembered and their birthday celebrated. But, when a child asks not to be mourned forever and wants more siblings. That is a profound statement of the importance of life.
You can also choose to end this life of yours in silence and allowing your life's history to stand as a measuring stick. Is that enough though? All of these are your choices in those final moments. Assuming you actually have that option to remain silent.
But, what if you do not have that option and your physical end to come is one of surprise. What if you are a soldier, a law enforcement person or a fire fighter. The time is now in communicating all of your intentions, instructions, love, apologies and forgiveness's.
These are your actions of your living funeral. To say those all important things. To celebrate all you have done. To be with and to be present with family and friends. 
In all that you have done or not done in your life. Is and can be very profound lessons for those who shall survive you, maybe for many generations. Admit your own faults and failures. Let those be those all important family wisdom's of don't do. Celebrate and tell of your successes and how you had to bring forth continuous effort all the way to the conclusion in order for them to be. Yes, even admit your addictions as pointed warnings in life. Yes, even admit your wrongful sins and they have harmed many. Direct your survivors not to follow your errors, sins, evil deeds and crimes of your life.
All of your life is important. All of it. The good, the bad and the ugly. Insure that your life all of your life is fully known to all. Let each story be those positive stories of wisdom for everyone who is willing to hear and discern their true value.
After all. Don't you want those who is to survive you to become better human beings. Don't you want them to not make your mistakes and yet to succeed in their own defined interests greater than even you can expect of them.
Can you have a noble death with honor even though your own life has been greatly lacking in any nobility, honor, respect or kindness. A life can be changed even from your own death bed. How you act and the words you speak with truth will remain with the living.

Rejected Right: (Unedited): 28 Feb 2015:

Being the only one who does the right thing. Can make you the rejected one and the enemy to all sides.  
C.J.MacKechnie
==========================
This is simple enough. It takes great strength and courage to stand up and reject everyone who is wrong. Even if both sides of a debate are wrong. This can happen especially in modern day politics. Where your two party political system has degrees of wrongness. Where one party is seen as worldly and hides all of their dirty secrets from their constituents. Then the other side who portrays itself as the righteous side. Hides all of their worldly sins from the blind media. Outwardly both sides hate each other and yet their children go to the same schools and the same summer camps. Really. The lies and deceptions are rampant. The free media is bound and enslaved.
This isn't about politics. It's about truth and what is true. People believe the lies they are told as truths simply because they have been repeated so much. Who originated this thinking process? Adolf Hitler the twentieth century's reining king of evil.
-----------------------------
“If you tell a big enough lie and tell it frequently enough, it will be believed.”
Adolf Hitler
---------------------------
People must begin to question everything they think they know as truth. This re-evaluation with respect and honor is very necessary if the world we all live in is to survive. Actually, this planet will survive humanity. It is the future archaeologists who will wonder who we were and they will discover that we created our own extinction.
People can begin with the lie of racism. Then work into those holy men who teach love, peace and harmony but preach hate, conflict/war and chaos.
Just think about that. A preacher teaches that Jesus is love and then encourages his flock when they freely choose to go off into battle. How is that loving one another? The Imam teaches peaceful lessons of The Prophet Mohamed and the preaches his followers to go off to war. Even the religion of harmony is experiencing chaos.
============================
When the one who stands for what is right in between the two different sides. Both wrong sides will forget the other and will attack the right one. The one who is right is truly brave to stand in the middle of all of those who is wrong.

Slave Escapism: (Unedited): 28 Feb 2015:

The modern day free slave can find their temporary escapism in the night life. 
C.J.MacKechnie
=========================
How can a slave be free. Those who are the owners no longer have to own, trade or even sell human beings. The owners have even divested themselves of the care and maintenance of human beings. Thus, the owners have created a brand of slavery called free slaves. By keeping wages and benefits low enough that a human being can live just healthy enough to do the work for the owners at the highest possible profit for the owners.
Think about it. Any wage below the actual living wage for a particular area must be a slaves wage or would you prefer the term migrants wage. Either way the slave and migrant are perpetually trapped in their circumstance. The migrant who travel no where. 
All around the world people go out into the darkness after a long week of work. To enjoy themselves in their self defined idea of what the night life actually is. Then on Monday it is back to work all over again. But, for those who do not have wealthy family or family of any importance. Their work week may become work months or even work years. They never see a day off or a day of rest. By our modern standards they are free.?... really? They will work until they can no longer work. Then that person is discarded as useless and rejected by all of society. Death becomes their true goal for freedom. Look at Apple computers and their news of just a couple of years ago. Is there improvement? Maybe? Has their security practices been enhanced so that no unfavorable news gets out? absolutely.

http://finance.yahoo.com/q?s=AAPL
-----------------------------------------------
Yet, in the USA. Americans do not care if their products are manufactured with slave/child labor practices. Yes, every American will declare the right answer, but with their pocket books and wallets Americans still vote in favor for slave labor and child labor. This is truth. Hard truth.
This is prophecy. You Americans will endure what it is you have paid for.

Divergent Confluence: Many Confluence: (Unedited): 28 Feb 2015:

Achieved confluence of unity cannot be disrupted by any outside divergent source. 
C.J.MacKechnie
==========================
An outside force which promises much in the way of worldly profits and comforts. Almost will always take away from the achieved confluence of that which has become naturally beautiful and sacred.
The outside source will always see emptiness and desolation. The outside source does not have to have any victorious conclusion to cause a divergence of the achieved confluence. Just the mere idea, the plans, and the promises of a better life for all. Which shall become a slavers life of minimum wages. While the true owners reap all of the benefits and profits. While sucking the life and sanctity out of all they invade like a virus.  
============================
Those who have achieved the confluence of unity. Must always be on guard and immediately deny all ideas and suggestions for any man made improvements to that which is already deemed spiritual and sacred. To even listen can cause contamination. To even consider can cause corruption. To even go through with those plans will separate you from that which is holy and wise.
============================
======================
Are you searching for something worthwhile to save? Something pure, natural and spiritual? Well, Here you are. These people seem to be already in year 3+ of their battle.

Ya'ah'teeh (Hello) Everyone,
We hear that the Navajo Nation Council is waiting for a number to be placed on the proposed Grand Canyon Escalade bill. When the bill gets a number, there will be a five-day comment time.
Navajo Nation President Ben Shelly and his chief of staff Deswood Tome, are fast-tracking the bill because of the upcoming president's election. The bill is an agreement about an idea for a project, which lacks funding and investors.
In addition, many local families, including grazing permit holders, have not been given proper notice and or have not signed off to give authorization to this project. The bill also ignores federal and tribal laws required of the project. This includes whether a mall, a tram is appropriate for the environment.
We ask for your help. Thank you!
Please contact your council delegate and recommend the council postpone the decision about the project until after the elections.

“The best way to take control over a people and control them utterly is to take a little of their freedom at a time, to erode rights by a thousand tiny and almost imperceptible reductions. In this way, the people will not see those rights and freedoms being removed until past the point at which these changes cannot be reversed.”
Adolf Hitler
From the wisdom of evil people. It is easy to see their plans and their patience. 
------------------
If this project begins to falter and it may. There will be a call for an expansion for a Casino. Surely this will ensure the success and profitability of the project.
If this project becomes very lucrative, successful and populated. There will be a call for expansion  for the benefit of all of the people. Thus a casino will rise up out of the sacred ground. Guaranteeing the loss of the historical and ancestral spiritual connectedness.
Either way a win-win for the Grand canyon Escalade Confluence Partners LLC.
-------------------
As of right now. I do see more than one gondola ride. Does this mean the entire project will go through an ever lasting expansion phase? A city will rise from this. An Airport.
As of right now. There is not enough support to stop this project. The Grand Canyon Escalade Confluence Partners LLC. will win and will move forward. Unless, there is much support from all peoples, not just those from the Tribal community.

Many Confluence: (Unedited): 28 Feb 2015:
From the confluence of the two rivers. Which is made up of the confluence of many more waters. The racism which envelopes the tribal peoples must be abated.
C.J.MacKechnie

------------------------
Humanity was once a singular source and then became many. With deep understanding of those ancient wisdom's. Humanity can once again become a confluence of many into oneness.  The tribes and clans of mankind becoming as it once was - One humanity.
====================
Added on 24 March 2015: Spiritual Connections.
Have you ever thought about how your ancient tribe or clan becomes forgotten? It is very easy and does require only a few generations. Which in the grand scheme of the totality of time. Is barely a quick blink. The importance of your families history is a crucial key to gaining wisdom and understanding which is beyond just knowing knowledge. Knowledge can lead to wisdom and wisdom to understanding. When ancient historical knowledge is something which is tangible not only to the physical senses but to those senses which are beyond the physical. The aha of wisdom and the amazing emotion of understanding is brightly gleaned. This is why ancient lands are crucial in the protection of any tribes/clans history. All of the lands upon this Earth, above and below the waters are sacred.  This sacredness and respect of it all is necessary for all of our starting points in life. You do have to know where you have begun in order to begin and continue your journey of free choice.
This is what is going to happen. Just as what is happening with those wealthy Native American tribes. Everyone knows they are Indians or the politically correct term of native Americans. In which neither description is a true description. That is all the people know. Maybe, they will know they are Seminoles of Florida. Then that may be the extent of that knowledge.
As each of those Native American tribes begin to chase the wealth of the world. They each will forget themselves in the hopes of bringing opportunities and jobs to their people. Which will of course happen but at the cost of self identity and a fracturing of their spiritual connectedness.
That is the cost. Your self identity, your tribes identity and the continued fracturing of your spiritual connectedness.
