Clear Mind

Clear Mind by Robert G Parent; The Jedi Poet

In moments where I'm surrounded by darkness, I look to the light of soul and a new path of light opens up to me. All confusion is gone, I have a Clear Mind and nothing can get in my way.

The Greatest Gift

The Greatest Gift by Robert G Parent, The Jedi Poet

The greatest gift we have is to make the decision to create what is in our heart, mind, and soul.

To create experiences by our power of decision brings us closer to becoming one with the Creative Force, which flows through us all.

It is with decision that we are and become something new. Where we, one day, bring life to an empty Universe.

Cricket's Song

Cricket's Song by Robert G Parent a.k.a. The Jedi Poet

In the last moments of Summer, Cricket in my home sings her song in remembrance. She knows of my journey and dreams. She reminds me of the music in me, that I should sing my song not only on a warm Summer night but also, in all the seasons of my life. Cricket teaches me that it is my song that makes me unique and, it is my song that makes me one with all life.

in moments

in moments
by Robert G Parent, the Jedi Poet

I wrote this November 24, 2011 to help me get over a loss. I hope you get inspiration and comfort from these words inspired from soul.

We travel on our journey, knowing each for a little time. Passing on the streets of eternity, we meet to work, play, and be together, enjoying the pleasures of form where we learn and create only to pass in between the seconds onto our next moment in form.

Above, below, within, without

Above, below, within, without
by Robert G Parent

As above, so below, as within, so without

Sayings like this are good for people to continue to meditate on. To me this means, as your soul is, you will be, as you grow, so is your soul. As within, so without means to me, how you see yourself; you see your world. If you want to change your world, change yourself within - like in Michael Jackson's song "the man in the mirror". And of course how you change your world and yourself, you align more closer to your soul. Everything is connected.

September 14, 2011
by Robert G Parent

A day off from work is what I needed at this point. Sometimes work can just be, well, work. I sit here listening to WGIR in the morning, my fan on me, while I type out these words and wonder about those people that need to have two or three jobs. You'd think that their stress level has to be high. That at any point they will crack, get a nervous break down, or ingest addictive substances. Do they see the day as something beautiful? The subtle changes of the seasons pass by us and teach us about life and how it is supposed to flow -- work, play, relaxation, sleep. We as humans need time to think and to ponder on what it is we see going on in life. As we ponder, we create new thoughts, which lead to new directions, which create new opportunities. All of our lives problems have solutions. We just need to slow down, ponder, and see the new direction and walk down a new path.

Sometimes I wonder if people know what life is really about. Where is our spiritual growth? In this country of the United States of America, we have freedom of religion and take our spiritual growth on many different paths but I wonder, when I hear news stories on TV...about the spirituality of Americans. This recession that we've been in for some time shouldn't have lasted as long as it does. People live too much in fear. Everyone is cutting but, in a recession we need to expand business because it is business that brings the money into our lives and into our government. It is true that we need to put government in its proper place and not expand it unless we expand business the same amount or more. It is truly and interesting time. I wonder where we will go from here.

September 11, 2011
by Robert G Parent

I'm sitting here at 8 o'clock at night listening to the crickets chirp outside my window. Cars float by barely making a sound going to who knows where.

Ten years ago today a disaster no one has ever seen. Four planes, one aimed at the White House, one aimed at the Pentagon, and two aimed at the World Trade Center's tallest buildings. Four planes controlled by those who don't respect life, including their own.

How are we supposed to morn those lost souls taken from us before their time? Still after hearing audio from that time makes me cry for those lost souls and those they left behind.

What can we do? Do we hate, Love, or Forgive what happened on that day ten years ago? Each person in those buildings had to know at some point they were going to die, to not enjoy the beauty, the magic of this world. I want to know if some of them cried, or yelled at the injustice shaking their hands toward the sky, or did they have a chance to call their loved ones left behind and tell them one more time how much they loved them.

What can cause someone to kill, and even kill in the name of religion or some unseen God? What type of training did they receive as children, being born and growing up into a place full of hate and much ugliness? Is it any wonder these children grow up as they do in a world without love, not respecting themselves or any life. Maybe we should pray for healing for those lost children so the future will not see another disaster as the one that happened on September 11, 2001.

Love is such a powerful energy. It brings people together. It opens up doors for a promising future. It shows people what their true potential can be.

The sadness of that day continues and multiplies in its abundance. I sit here on a quiet night and wonder, when will the cycle be broken. A tear rolls down my cheek; I bow my head in silence; I remember.

Reclaim our Power and become Balanced

Reclaim our Power and become Balanced by Robert G Parent

The governments of the world want you to die. The Carbon Tax is a tax on your breath. In basic science, which I learned in grade school, wonder if they still teach this, tells us we breath out carbon dioxide and breath in oxygen from trees. The last country that taxed the air was Great Britain, who taxed Ireland in the past. Well, we know how that turned out.

In a well balanced society there are some taxes that go to the government to pay for the shared expenses that help make this country run smoothly. But, that is the keyword "balance". With the National Government getting more and more powerful and away from the individual, we have become a nation of tyranny by the sound bite. We need to reclaim more power by the individual states as long as people stay involved in their local policies.

We have to remember what made this country great, the advances we made in manufacturing, the inventions that make life easier, and the Internet that gave us access to knowledge and information which we haven't had in the past. It is this spirit of self discovery that binds us together as a strong community that is able to overcome any challenge, to learn and grow from it. We need to reclaim our power, so we can once again balance our lives, our businesses, and our spirit.

Living is in the journey

Living is in the journey by Robert G Parent

The Summer is almost over. The leaves will change their color. The weather will get colder. The drive-ins where we get burgers, fries, ice cream, and seafood will close, be boarded up and, wait for the new crop of Christmas Trees to come in.

We get so programmed of living a life based on the season that we currently live in, instead of seeing what each season is trying to teach us. Do you spend time in each season just observing the flowers in the meadow, the frog by the pond, the colorful foliage in the park, or the frosty landscape of the mountains?

Why do we go so fast into the next season? We worry about not having a better car, a new home, or a better paying job. No wonder we are a nation, a world under stress. We speed to the end of our lives without enjoying the creamy middle. I believe that it was some wise person who said many, many years ago, maybe even a galaxy far away, that life is in the journey and not the destination. Face it. We are all going toward the same place. What is your hurry?

Apocalypse

Apocalypse
by Robert G Parent

To Walk the Path in Darkness,
To See what's in Air,
To Drive in the Fog of Mystery,
I seek to read the timeless book
within the being
which I am within.
