Miracle Fertility – With G-d Anything Is Possible.

Project: “Tefillin”
I am not a Jew, though I consider myself spiritual. Throughout my life I have really loved learning about other religions. You can find gems of profound wisdom in every religion, but I must tell you that in Jewish literature, I have found some of the most profound ideas that there are! I love some ideas of Judaism. I especially find interesting the mystical Kabbalist ideas. To me, Judaism is “natural”. It has a very natural evolution and sequence of coming to existence and becoming what it is to this very day. That evolution is documented. My first experience reading a Torah is that it is like a story. I have read the Old Testament before, and the difference was that the Torah reads like an Earthy story.
Years ago my community, Albuquerque, out of “nowhere” got “hit” with certain “street problems / issues” such as fentanyl (aka “blues”) and more “forced poverty” than was there before. As people tried to define what was occurring, these poor victims of forced poverty and addiction to the cheap “blues” found ways to survive and the community deemed them “encampments”.
After a while, I decided that I was going to make a personal “community service” effort. The most “dire” streets in Albuquerque, where the crime and homelessness is abundant at times was previously called “The War Zone”. It is on Central between San Mateo and Wyoming, zip code 87108. The city renamed this area to “The International District”. In this zone you can find people “nodding out” doing the “blues” in the open air public, as well as thieves and beggars and prostitutes. There are lots of encampments there. It is a sort of crime zone. I am convinced that it may be an area that documents “wrongs” / “crimes” from other timescales / visibilities / spaces. A latitude / longitude replication / documentation zone? Catch a case, foo!
When I decided to make a personal community service effort I decided that I would go do community service on Central in the War Zone. I felt it was somewhat dangerous, so I had to prepare. I learned many lessons. First of all I started bringing my camera and very quickly learned that people there get paranoid with cameras. I took my bike with a backpack and I brought water and food and essential supplies to give to people. I learned another lesson pretty quickly, do not give them money, give the people there, or offer to give them essential supplies. They are the marginalized of society and could use water and food and hygiene basic supplies. It really does help them. They could use meals there. Make a bunch of sandwiches, if you can afford it and go give them out to the people on the street.
Charity is the greatest Commandment
In doing so, I met people, and I heard their stories, and they are not so different than all of us who function normally in society.
They are normal people whom have had a tragedy to their persons and they are coping with the trauma of that.
I started thinking about the beautiful prayer that the Jews do, as a Commandment, with Tefillin. It is a prayer that reminds them that G-d liberated them out of the bounds of Egypt. You might compare these poor, forced poverty, forced drug addicts to Jews in the bounds of slavery in Egypt in the sense that these people NEED to be liberated from bounds outside of their control.
So I purchased a set of Tefillin and I brought it with me on my community service trips in The War Zone. I am planning on bringing it with me, and sharing my Tefillin with people who might want to learn how Jews pray and might find it a special prayer experience.
This is how I interpret the Tefillin prayer: “Dear G-d, thank you for freeing us from the bounds of slavery. Let this Tefillin prayer be a reminder that you liberated us. Let this Tefillin be bound to me as a sign and reminder.”
I pray G-d liberates all of these people from their dire, vulnerable situations of poverty and addiction.

The Relevance of Yeshua

I am a non-practicing Catholic. I love Catholicism. Where I live, the Church is a Holy refuge, a sacred place and institution to find spiritual union with G-d. The other faiths are our family, our cousins, our brothers and sisters, like everyone, every person is family(even atheists and non-believers). One human family.
Though I am not a churchgoer, Catholicism is my core. Catholic values: Kindness, Humility, Forgiveness, The Golden Rule, Charity, Faith, Hope, Prudence, Fortitude, Justice, Temperance, and Love.
I often think about the relevance of Jesus’ message: forgiveness, not throwing the first stone, treat others as you’d like to be treated, and Yeshua suffered and died for our sins, every single sin, so that we don’t have to suffer or die for our sins. He loved us that much! That is the relevance of Jesus! Life is meant to be lived!
Signs of G-d’s love! …And G-d is a good G-d who loves us and has plans for our happiness and success!
With these profound messages Yeshua is most definitely a prophet.
Let our houses, all of the houses of humanity work on our foundation of loving-kindness, universally, that every human deserves. The details won’t be as important in the future once we all have a foundation of our needs met, loving-kindness, dignity, charity, empathy, hope, forgiveness, humility!
The point is kindness, Hillel had it right! “The message of the entire Torah is kindness, the rest of the Torah is just commentary!” The most important take-away from the Torah is kindness! Loving-kindness!
I encourage you to purchase some Dr. Bronner’s Magic Soap and read the label. It is like a breath of fresh air. I love the logo. To me, their logo of a white hand and arm shaking a black hand and arm is symbolic of a polarized separateness meeting in the middle, civilly, through a shake of a hand. Bridging a polarized black/white separateness with kindness. Let us always find intercultural competence, reaching across the aisle through kindness, a worthwhile effort between houses.

A Half Irish, Half Spanish Blessing
May the Sun always shine on your face (May you always be warm),
May the Wind always be at your back (May your strides be easy and effortless with the wind’s help),
and May Time always be on your side (May you have more than an hour for every minute that passes).
The story behind the photo: it is a photo taken at Albuquerque’s Biopark. This scene reminded me of a family friend that was killed named Brian Mckeon. His next of kin are dear family friends. Over the years his death has always been somewhat of a mystery to me, certain things seemed to be out of place and didn’t make sense to me. Brian’s death was called a suicide, but I believe, and I feel strongly that his death was not a suicide, it was in fact a homicide. He died in Rio Rancho. When I was a boy I inspected the murder scene after his body has been taken. Upon entering his house there was a diagonally positioned couch. This was, I believe, in the year 1994, but it may have been in the year 1992 or 1993. I wish I remembered more.
I, somewhat recently, wrote the district attorney to see if he would open a new homicide investigation. I feel this was an injustice and corruption. There are no statutes of limitations for investigations and/or prosecutions of homicides, no time limitations. I feel his death has already been irrefutably deemed as a homicide with “absolute truth” time technologies, because that is the truth. To get closure, would official change of cause of death be essential?
I mostly just hope Brian’s soul rests in peace and finds peaceful justice in Heaven. Brian was connected to nature and had bright blue eyes. His doppelgänger is/was Kurt Cobain. I feel that Kurt Cobain’s death was connected to Brian Mckeon’s. It was a replication, in some way, shape, or form, of what occurred with Brian. May their souls find happy solace. We miss you Brian and Kurt! When I hear Van Morrison’s “Moondance” album, I think of Brian.
