Where is my home?

It would seem to me that there must be a place on this planet which I could call my home. That is becoming more and more difficult as I can see. Cagayan de Oro City has always been home to me and it was here that I found my roots. There are people that I know and friends I grew up with but they seem to be inhabiting a different planet or have evolved or mutated into beings I do not recognize anymore. Or, is it me who has mutated into something which is anathema?

It is good to plant lakatan in Cagayan de Oro City and to see the plants grow. It is also another thing to be sitting on a rock thinking about your life and what you think you could be doing. I am quite content that I have found a little haven where I now am.

I did see a whole new way of seeing myself and it is not at all pretty. This is how people see me and who knows, is this how a supreme being views me?

Been There

I have just been to Cagayan de Oro City and things are going well there for me as far as prospects are concerned. There are a number of projects that I could get involved in and it could take me away from the doldrums and lack of progress that I have recently found myself in. Many of the discussions that I have had while there involves the revival of Ching's World and how it could be used to create a base of operations which could be used to effect some very necessary changes in the way that the world works today.

I have had this dream where a system could be created that will help alleviate the difficulty that many people feel these days. The system is not secret. Nor is it even hidden or esoteric. It is with us everyday and this is used by insects to successfully maintain the health of their colony and to colonize other parts of the world.

There is always: Ching's Way and Ching's Web along with Ching's Best and Ching's Illusion. Way to go, Ching!

The Poor Is With You Always

The poor will always be there and so will the rich. There is nothing that indicates any sudden change in the order of things very soon. We might not like it, it might run counter to our idea of fairness and social justice but the fact remains, there is no uniformity in the universe except for the consciousness that is reflected in each and every one. To end poverty, this has been the goal of many people but to what extent will this succeed? The intention is good but would the universe change its very nature just to suit the emotional meanderings of some people? And how sincere are these thoughts and intentions?

Come into these sites: Squeak Smalltalk Adventure, The Ordinary Life, Politics: Divine Right of Kings and Presidents, Creation, Life, Consciousness.

I am pretty sure that nothing will change except for the person who chooses to try and change the situation regarding poverty. Mother Teresa did not change the situation but it surely changed her in a profound way and she changed those who shared her emotions. People have to open their eyes and see the world with compassion. The Buddha learned this and dedicated his life to bringing enlightenment to people. The poverty of material things was less important than the poverty of the soul.

Our favorites are: Ching's World, Green Tea, Dumaguete, Cebu City, Cagayan de Oro City, Papoy, Moira Trinity Cagayan de Oro, Dumaguete, Cebu are all in the Philippines in the world of Ching.
