Two Communes
Before continuing on please
read this page.This page is here to inform you of my intention and to advice
you that these articles or movies that I listed below which may have been
very much in the news are not what I experienced. You maybe have already
made up your mind by reading the headline above as to what happened to
me at these two communes.
Hear is a list of places that are
not very close to what I experienced at these two communes.
1. I Love You, Alice B. Toklas!

2. The Spy Who Shagged Me (1999)
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0145660/
3. Branch Davidian

6. I hate Hippies

Throw away all your premature
notions or opinions because they do not apply here.
There seems to be a notion that
moving back into society is a bust for the mind of the child of the sixties
that dropped out. Society is a social environment by the whole family of
man “We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect
Union” We can remove “the United State” and say “of this Planet” without
missing a beat or the intention of the meaning of the phrase.
Places that are more akin as to
where my mind is at because of these communes are:
1. The Garden of Eden
2. The life of Christ http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/08377a.htm
3. Lost Horizon (1937) http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0029162/
4. The life of Gandhi https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mahatma_Gandhi
5. The Life of Siddhartha
Gautama http://www.ship.edu/~cgboeree/siddhartha.html
6. Michaelango Buonarroti https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michelangelo
7. Organic Gardening

8. Environmental awareness

9. The Kingdom of God is Within
You https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leo_Tolstoy
Well my mind still carries those
ideals in my every day life.
And this is what I wrote about
those ideals.
I am constantly looking for a rush
of words that will bring my emotions to a heightened state of euphoria.
So I read a book, go out and view
the early morning, scan the Internet.
I am chasing a dream.
I am constantly finding that peace,
that state of being, that euphoria.
Every morning I awake, every morning
I search.
Sometimes there is a moment where
I just see like a child lost in a dream,
Tomas did you hear me?
The teacher comes by and says,
Tomas did you hear the question?
Someone please tap my shoulder.
Awaken me from this moment of peace.
Nothing would be done if we all
found that moment of peace.
No wars could be fought if we all
found that moment of peace.
Some of us can carry that moment
throughout the day.
An aura of bliss carried on our
shoulders like a comforting knapsack.
We can dig the weeds, assemble
the work, draw the painting, and write the word.
All we need is the awakening moment,
the reminder, the warm chill that emanates deep in our being to come
forward like the blood that flows to our brain.
We are constantly showing others
our moment hoping that they will see it.
Share it be part of it.
It is a good vibration; a warm
movement of blood; a good state of mind; it is peace.
