Maybe an Alien ?

Maybe an Alien ?


So if you have been following this Blog for the last few months you know that there is a goal. There is an end to all of these odd BLOGS I’m writing. All of them have a goal, and end, a purpose. Its not just to say things you want to hear but to give you the real real real real answers. People - I promise you that if you hold on just a bit longer, that you WILL find the answer to your pain, loneliness, depression, anxiety, cutting, and horrid life we seem to have to endure. See I know your pain because like I have said- I have lived it and been through the darkest days you can ever imagine. Dear friend whoever you are- for my friends and fellow sufferers in Russia, Turkey, Israel, USA, China, Denmark, Australia, Holland, Iran, India, no matter where you are.. PLEASE  listen to me. This is not a scam, not a joke, not a gimmick, not a ploy to get you to buy my books. This is not some religious trick to get you to join some cult- NO ! This is the way- the ONLY way out of this Hell hole we are in. So please follow this blog and by the end of this year or sooner I will reveal the answer we all MUST have and MUST get. A cure people a real cure out of this mess.  Please hang on a little longer. 

ANYWAY -
Back to the series I am doing and this next one today is titled -
MAYBE an ALIEN ! 

Now if you remember from last time that we discussed this COMPANION who would be our guide and friend. A guardian of the galaxy so to speak, We spoke about how wonderful it would be to have such a person (being) in our lives. Well the next question is- can there be a celestial friend out there who has the answers ? With all the talk of life on other planets, UFO’s and “other” life forms in the Cosmos well- maybe there is. Maybe this “being” is not of this world. Maybe he or even she is from another world. All I know is of the people I know from this dimension (earth) well they have been no help as they just don’t have the power and answers to fix me. So maybe the answer to this issue lies beyond this world from a power that is not of this world. A power and life form  NOT human ! And if there was such a power, a force, an Alien intelligence well then the question is how do we reach him? How would we find him and has he even visited this planet already. We hear again - about all these visitation- maybe there is something to this close encounter of the 3rd kind. Maybe there is something or someone with ALL the answers to this dying world and planet. Who is this power, where might he be from, and what might he want from us mortals ? 

Stay tuned as we dig deeper into this question and in time - find the answer we are ALL looking for.

THE COMPANION

The Companion 


Over the last few months we have been talking allot about depression and anxiety - and all that goes and comes with them. Its causes and its horrid pain. We discussed how depression and anxiety is rooted  ultimately in thee “Alone Differential”. We discovered that much of our depression is rooted in fear and most of our fear is rooted in anxiety and most of our anxiety is rooted in simply the torment of being alone in a world with too many people. Its facing daily life with too many decision‘s, choices, obstacles, consequence, and daily existence conundrums. We discussed how just having to deal with all of this life “stuff” alone was the biggest of issues. We even fantasized about having this magical person who would knock on your door and say-”Hi my name is Bob, I will be taking care of things from this time forward. I will be handling all the concerns and important choices you have to make. Even going with you to the store holding your hand so you don’t have to deal with your social issues. I will take care of all of life’s paper work , people issues,  Family issues , relationship issues and life concerns“. Wow we decided- what a blessing that would be. To have someone who would tell you who to date, marry, - what job to take what phone calls to make what to ware and where to live. They would lay out your whole future for you and all you would have to do is trust them and believe that they had your best interest at heart. 
So anyway after thinking about this idea and concept I felt it was time to start introduce this person and what we might call him. I think a good start with be -”The Companion”. 
Now this person would not be a mate or business partner but a life coach. But more then a life coach as they can only advise and suggest- no this person would be infallible, without fault, perfect, always there, never late, and more- they would be completely free of charge. But lets take it up a notch. Lets add to the mix that they would be personally omnipresent, meaning they would be with you at all places at all times.
From when you got up in the morning to getting dress, to leaving the house, going to a party, -everywhere you went they went. Also to really sweeten the pot, they would always have your best interest in mind. They would think of you, worry about you, care about you, and have on top of it all your perfect life plan. But lets take it up even further; not only are they personally omnipresent , they are also personally all powerful  (Omnipotent) - but even more they would be All knowing ( Omniscient.)  Meaning that they always knew the right thing to do making it impossible to make a mistake in your life.
When it came to what medications to take, or get off of or how much to take. When it came to what your future career would be and in what place-well they already knew the answer. 
I don’t know about you but that would surely end allot of my depression fears and worries. So for today I want to focus on “This COMPANION”. 
Who may he or she be ? What if there were one ?
What if it really was true ?
What if its just a fairytale and a tease ?

Well stick with this blog as we take this up a notch each month..

Thee ALONE differential

Thee  ALONE differential 


If being Alone is the sickness
then
What is the cure ?


As we discussed last time we were together - that being alone is a big part of depression and anxiety. Sometimes being alone brings us to depression and anxiety. Doesn’t really matter , what matters is that depression and anxiety have a thin blue line running through them called loneliness. In many ways fear is rooted in being alone. Think about this; when your afraid of the dark, is it not because you are alone ? When your afraid of a new job or traveling or a new relationship, is it not because you don’t know how to handle these situations and if you just had “someone” besides you as your advocate it would make life allot easier. Many times in my profession of a counselor and one who suffers from anxiety and depression- I find that what most people want is for someone to take them by the hand and walk them through life. Someone to deal with all the issues for them. Someone to run interception and be there for all the fears and details of life. Someone to just come to your door and say- “High my name is Bob, I will be your personal advocate and from this day forward, I will be taking care of all your issues fears and concerns from this point forward. From paper work to getting you a job to helping you make tough choices. I will be your forever friend and someone you can trust. I will never leave you or forget you. I will be there when you get up in the morning and all through the day. Not one single minute of your life will I NOT be there for you. When you look to the left- I am there, when you look to the right I am there. I will hug you when you need one, and I will push you and encourage you when you need that to”. 

Now I bet already your feeling good just hearing this concept. I bet your saying like I am thinking -”Hum- that would be great to have someone like that, I would feel so much better knowing that- I am NOT ALONE”. 
Well anyway that’s the point I wanted to make today. The point that all we are feeling for the most part started with feeling alone. Started with being afraid because your alone. Its made worse because life is very scary and facing just one more day ALONE is too much to bare. Now I am not saying that Depression and Anxiety are not also caused by emotional , chemical, and genetic programming but what I am saying is that being ALONE is at the core of all our fears in regards to  this emotional state we are in.  Dear friend and “fellow” sufferer. I want you to really think about that imaginary person (Bob) I told you about. Think about having this person in your life who would carry you over the river and hold your hand when your not sure what to do. Even more this person would have the wisdom to know all the right things to say. They would know everything about you and what would always be in your best interest. I tell you friend - THIS IS what we all need. In fact we can not live this life on planet earth without that person. We are just too weak and frail to make it alone. 

Now the question is- can there really be such a person ? Maybe its someone you know but if your like me- every single person I trusted in to help me has let me down for the most part. No one is always there or even wants to help or can help if they wanted to. So finding this ( forever friend) seems like it wont happen in this world, and the point is its true. There is no one in this dimension and realm who can be that special friend. So the question is - where do we look ? Does one exist outside of time and space ? Maybe its an alien from another galaxy, or maybe some “being” from another planet. Maybe where we need to start looking for help is not found in this world but found in another. Well that would be great you might think but that’s crazy! There is no life out there unless maybe a UFO or something but that’s still just crazy. Well lets get off that idea for a while and instead spend some time Not looking for a super friend but instead lets spend some time star gazing, animal watching, nature looking. See I don’t know about you but I love animals. I love my little dog named buddy. I love flowers, grass, the mountains and the sky at night. I love the ocean and sand of the beach. I love summer and spring and I love birds that fly around. Sometimes I actually look at the birds and become jealous for their freedom and causal life. They have no past to think about and they don’t worry about the future. They just are and only live in the moment. No one owns them and yet somehow they are always taken care of. Someone feeds them and keeps them warm. They always seem to have a home and always seem to be happy. Hey - have you ever seen a depressed bird ? Have you ever saw a bird pacing around biting their fingernails ?  Anyway your assignment until our next session is- to look around and wonder. To look around and wonder about our planet, the animals, the tree’s . Even sit and look at your hand right now. Look at its incredible design and how it works so quickly. How the moment you think a move your hand is already doing that move. Think about your brain and its ability to control all your motor functions without you ever thinking of them. It JUST works and works without a beat.  Anyway I leave you with this thought -

“To be alone, is to live in pain, and to live in pain alone is to have no place left for joy to dwell”  SRK

Ourselves Alone - Shinfane The Loneliness that hurts so much

Ourselves Alone - Shinfane 

A while back I learned of this term- “Ourselves Alone”. it’s a Gallic Irish term from the Irish rebellion of years gone by. Its pronounced Shin-Fane.  For some reason the term jumped out at me and hit a cord. Ourselves Alone !. I tell you in my whole life I have not feared  anything more then- being alone, living alone, suffering alone growing old alone and dying alone. I think in many ways our pain- Anxiety and Depression; They are a very alone type thing. In depression I have felt very alone as no one really understands what I feel other then others like you and I . But Of anxiety I think that makes me really feel alone. That heavy feeling in my chest, that oppressiveness and darkness. That overwhelming feeling of impending doom. it’s a scary place and an empty place. It is in deep Anxiety or even daily consistent low level anxiety that I feel the most alone. It is in this place of anxiety that I am more prone to run to ANY thing to relive this pain. When I say anything I mean anything as even one minute relief from it is worth it. Which is why we often run quickly to drugs, drink, sex, porn,  cutting, Same sex relationships, Gender manipulation, and/or some self destructive behavior that does ( temporally ) relieve  the pain. The running into the unknown hoping to find the answer. They all offer escape which is why sleeping is the favorite of us all. You know I think I understand how Michael Jackson felt as he would desire to be “put under” by some drug just to simply escape the reality of this life. Sometimes I wish I could be put under and have often felt this sick excitement of going in for some surgery simply because I knew I will be completely out if just for a fleeting few hours. I think this is why many of us run to suicide. It is the escape we all desire when this loneliness comes over like a flood. As to Suicide well the fear that keeps me from it is this- Is it really an escape or maybe just entering something I really know nothing about. What if I find in death that there is no escape at all but an entering into something that I can never escape from. That unknown article has saved me many times from that trip.  So Well I am thankful that I have not went too far with the suicide or I would not be here to share my healing. Anyway the point I want to make today is- overcoming this Loneliness and how it is  the key to overcoming it all. To never be lonely ever ! To not feel alone in a crowded room. To not fear living alone or dying alone. Or worse growing old alone. To not fear simply stepping out of my bedroom.  This my friends is key and it is a loneliness that can only be beaten by a power bigger then just people, circumstances, drugs -legal or illegal , or therapy . Then just a lover or friend can give. Yes we have had those to and still felt the pain of being alone.  Even money cant beat the feeling as we see many celebrities still suffer despite their wealth. -Over the next month we will dig into this issue and then find the ultimate exterminator of this loneliness. I pray you all stick around for this journey..  Relief is coming, healing is coming, and most of all- happiness is coming.
