Dementia is such an awful disease, I know, my wife has it and I have to do practically everything for her but I do have our memories, she no longer has them though which is so sad.

Oh Dan - religious nuts aside - this is quantum physics and I totally believe in it (foregoing the strychnine and snakes that is). Applied Kinesiology, waves of energy around our bodies connecting us to something bigger, positive thinking absolutely! Quantum physics makes me dizzy when I try to understand it but it is a field that is well and truly developing.... and so you are on the right path just by opening up yourself to new positive ideas! This is awesome. He sounds very much the scientist to me -

Once again a lot of wisdom in your words.
The video though is quite another matter.
The guy is selling you an idea and using very good proven strong sales technique. He is reinforcing what you already feel to promote other ideas which are new to you and radical. A well used selling method to get you to buy into the new idea. Finally he reinforces the radical by once again telling you something you already know ... belief (the placebo effect) is 95% proof of anything.
The world is full of Examples of this selling technique being used to promote anything from water filters to condominiums. The Christians used it to gain power over the masses.... other religions too.
Once you are a believer, a true believer, then it\'s difficult to shift your belief if we are talking about ideals rather than products. You aint going to believe for long in a water filter once it starts chucking out crap water and making u ill. But if you are convinced that there is a wholesome god up there somewhere who\'s son died on the cross for YOUR sins (what bloody sins) and you must accept all the punishments he slings at you (like famine, hurricanes, still births, handicapped babies) because \'they\' tell you you must accept it.... if you have become that much of a believer then you are so \'sold\' on the idea that its gonna be near impossible to get you off it.
So be careful about what you accept as a belief. Feelings - he was 100% right about - but you ALREADY KNEW THAT.

I feel we need to beware of that video. Jesus says \'They will take up serpents, and drink deadly poison, and it will not harm them\'. But it may have a \'spiritual\' meaning.
Some of it is just tempting God, I think. I mean, we would not normally handle snakes nor drink poison. Some turn it into a religious mania.

Dan,
A super poem! Love the pic! Jorja is a beauty! She looks like she’s ready to take flight!
Have you seen “Rocketman”? It’s a great movie...if you’re a fan of Sir Elton John!
Through your writings, we’ve learned a great deal about you! All I can say is you’ve come a long way! You’ll be a great dad to that little girl who’ll be meeting you in September! She’ll have an awesome dad!

Careful with that wind M8. Though TBH i\'ve never smelled an eagles fart. Great picture, she has you just where she needs you and you are just where you want to be. You are supporting her so she feels at home in the beautiful background of life.
You are i hope right in that we exit peacefully... for some it hasn\'t been that way though.

Some are gone and some remain.
Some are quite missed. MPS has attracted some quite outstanding personalities in the time i have been posting here and you sir rank highly amongst those outstanding persons.
You always GIVE of yourself and in that amazingly humble way about you that you have.
Always good to read your words.

This is the best thing you have written in my opinion. You now know that the light is there for you where once there was darkness, that light will never fail.
I do not say this very often but this poem is going into my favourites.

Just calling yourself a poet doesn\'t make you a poet
But you are one Dan
You have to write it\'s the ink coming out of your soul
There is poetical snobbery... But not amongst poets.
Great open hearted read Thank you for posting

And, whilst in your own time. please don\'t stop writing such moving and sentimental poems such as this one. I\'ts difficult to let out and express your most inner, thoughtful and sorrowing pain within your own heart. I love you and the way you deal with life in such an inspiring way I can\'t help wanting more of your own dedication to writing such poems. Bring on the next one, brother poet.

There was a poem I made up with my grandson, I can\'t remember it all:
There was a monkey swinging in the window
And the window was open
The monkey went flying through the window
But his tail got caught in the jam
Kiddies rhymes are quirky but it\'s the laugh that follows which is fun. Have a lot of funny moments

All the cats in the grass
will stand up and smile
at the very first cry
from your newly born child
all those neighborhood dogs
will woof with delight
when youre pushing a pram
and stop you on sight
the birds up above
have a cunning wee plan
to sing every morning
for the children of Dan
the bees in the flowers
gonna buzz out a rap
for that lil girl blossom
or that lil boy chap
Dontcha just love kiddies rhymes.
Yours is a superb nonsense piece today.
