Life is a juggling act...It really is a juggling act........If one loses ones balance, well then, it would seem logical that one would probably have a nasty fall!!! Wouldn't it??? Have I already lost your attention...well if your attention span is anything like that of my own...well let's just hope that it isn't! Now the balance of life....everything in moderation...love anything too much, or care for anything to little...well now, this upsets the delicate balance of life that most of us seem to juggle well enough, at least well enough for us to maintain some sort of stability, in a rather unstable universe! "Keeps a roof over my head, and food on da table" said Mr Jones. But there are some of us who upset this delicate balance so much, and in such a way, that the ability to maintain becomes such a matter of difficulty, that the effect of this illusion, of having his or her 'shit together' becomes a real bitch to pull off! Can u dig what I'm saying? "Man, you know that dude 'conkling'...he freakin' lost his balance and fell off the wagon!!!" And you know what happens to those who lose there balance? Well they have to rehabilitate themselves of course!!! REHAB!!!...u can ask Lindsey Lohan about that...Fucking Balance..."you've really overturned the scales this time"...Why is he going on and on about balance? you're asking yourself about now??? ________________________________________ ________________________________________ ____________________________
Because the delicate balance of life itself, is at stake!!! I'm spouting off about a world gone mad...MAD!!! If you think that I'm being a bit of a 'drama queen' or 'just full of shit' or a "melodramatic imbecile"...it's a matter of opinion man! The pendulum just fuckin broke!!! The scales of balance don't work no more...We're sucking on the "tit" of Greed, Power and Oil!!! It is sustaining war and killing the environment, and last but not least...It is killing us!...It will kill us! "god's tears are everywhere"!!! Why are men, women and children dying from starvation everyday when there is more then enough food to feed everyone? Why must we insist on using oil and fossil fuels as if it's the only possible source of energy? Why are we fighting a war against terrorism on the other side of the world, when our borders are wide open? Why are there 'poppy' fields in bloom and blossoming all over Afghanistan right under the US military's noses? Why did it take 5 days for the government to send aid to the victims of hurricane Katrina? Why are we paying an income tax? Why did AT&T censor Eddie Vedder's remarks about President Bush while broadcasting a live pearl jam concert? What really happened to Pat Tillman? Why won't the US government ever hold themselves accountable for anything? Putting conspiracy theories aside...in all honesty...what the hell is going on? It feels strange not being able to trust in something that you've always trusted in...doesn't it?
http://www.ralphbuckley.com Freedom...it is a strong word. It's a word that conjures up a wide variety of imagery in any individual. But like everything else...it has a multitude of meanings and definitions... A man might be free...but still enslaved to the ideas and influences that surround him! I like the way Jordan Maxwell put it: "I don't trust anyone who professes that they've found the truth...implying that there is no need to go any further. I would be much more inclined to befriend someone who is still 'looking for the truth'....keeping an open mind. Still open to learning new things". This is a real pickle....for the one who claims to know the truth...implies that it's kind of a 'closed end affair', and if you happen to disagree with the found 'truth' of an individual...then you may be about to embark upon a disagreement that could very likely end up turning into WW3. "I don't claim to know the truth...but I do claim to have glimpses of it...however brief...from time to time." said I to myself... Mind control in the 21st century has become quite the art form for the elite. Just how far the technology has come...is incomprehensible. Science fiction or fact... The little tid' bits of 'fringe' information that gets leaked out, here and there, is mind boggling enough in itself. Holographic technology? Human genome project??? Project looking glass??? Genetically Modified food??? this is some of what we've heard about. What about the stuff we haven't heard about??? What about the ground breaking discoveries (or nightmares) of....today??? _______________________ Let us simplify... Whatever faith you choose to endorse...whatever political party or candidate that turns your crank....whatever opinion you may or may not have about anyone, anybody or anything... Doesn't mean anything whatsoever without.....FREEDOM...!!!! _______________________ Freedom Calling is another improvised 'jam session'...again it is more about capturing the moment then it is about perfection... Not that I don't love producing and multi-tracking and mixing tracks...It's very much like being able to paint a picture with music...and the effects give you an endless array of colours to choose from. I love recording...and I started doing it when I was young by layering tracks with 2 portable cassette players. I knew that I wanted to do this....a long long time ago. But for right now...staying in the moment is what counts.
I would love to expand on this song...let the imagination within your ear hear multiple percussion instruments and a stage full of people joining together.
Can anyone see or visualize "Toobstock West - Peace Festival"
Do you think we can make this happen? Do you want to see this happen...? There is a lot of folks...right here at u2b who are 'Wide Awake' as far as I'm concerned...if you know what I mean...!!! We can start a trend right here and NOW!!! Let us set a precedent!!! Let us give 'each other' a voice....4 PEACE & FREEDOM...!!! -------------------------- http://www.ralphbuckley.com
freedom blues... yes indeed...welcome to the next act in "The blues explosion of Freedom"...H0ly shit have we got a show 4 u this time...yep we've got some company here in the house of Conkling...! I can't begin to tell U how good it is 2 b sharing a groove with such cool folk...! AnnieCanada & Freesouljah, they be makin' this thing happen....4 REAL...! and what better reason to bring people & song together...then 'FREEDOM'!! More then ever I believe that we are beginning to witness a real change in consciousness. I mean lets face it...we better get it together real quick man. If the current trend continues on...then we're doomed. You know it...& I know it, but it seems like it's such an impossibility to fight against the system. The status quo of the 'have's' and the 'have nots' is firmly imprinted upon our society. But if we open our minds and hearts, just a little bit...help could be coming to us from a celestial source. Mother Earth is very much alive...she is a 'living being'... & we are all about to go through some heavy changes. We are all made up of the same stardust man...why should you & I be any different from the moon, stars & the sun? __________ There are many levels of 'freedom' just has there are many levels of 'slavery'....it all ties together in the higher consciousness or so I believe. (I mean I suppose if you don't believe that there's some kind of 'higher consciousness' then you'll be moving on off this video anyways). It could be said that the ultimate 'freedom' is the freedom of the mind or consciousness. To break through the constraints of the physical. To become like spirit. To no longer adhere to the laws of gravity. To no longer be ruled by the ego. When are thoughts become 'enslaved' eventually are bodies or physical self becomes slaves to those thoughts...and the desires that come with those of the physical world. Are we moving towards a 'higher consciousness'...? I hope so.... _________________________ Art Bell (Coast to Coast am) did some experiments a few years back with 'mass consciousness'. Now if you know who Art Bell is then u know that Coast to Coast has a huge listener base, some 14 million. So one night he conducted an experiment by asking everyone listening to concentrate or pray or whatever at the same time. Everyone was silent for like 2 minutes...the idea was to focus on making rain in the southern US where there had been a tremendous drought....the results were unnerving. It rained & rained....eventually causing mass flooding. The experiment was to much for Art...he has since stated that he wouldn't do it again, it spooked him....more info http://noosphere.princeton.edu/ ...Now this was many years ago...and since then the internet and technology have become accessible to anyone. We have the ability now to network together quite easily. We do it everyday for no better reason but to chat and kill time. So imagine if we all connected together with the idea that we could change the world. You've heard that we have never unlocked the potential of the human brain. That we are really only utilizing less then 10% of what it can do. In fact we really have no idea of what were capable of. This unknown potential couldn't be limited to just the physical. Telekinesis & Psychokinesis have always been a part of our psyche. Consciousness is truly the unknown frontier!!!....But the real question is "What do u think"??? "Do you think that we can change physical reality through 'consciousness"???. I think we can...& I don't think we need 14 million of us to participate to see the results. ___________________________ Yes indeed...there is nothing more vital then Freedom.....
