Friends vs. Aloneness  by Dewaine Wakeman Friends: Are they actually real and can we trust them? Maybe you’ve faced these questions too after being hurt. If you need to love people, try loving them from a distance. Don’t feel guilty, take your time in learning people. Christ would say, “Guard yourself against the WORLD” Notice, he did not say guard yourself against a ‘few people you don’t trust, he said guard yourself against the entire world. The friends you come into this world with, are not necessarily the friends you will leave with. We live in a less than perfect world that is often filled with jealousy, greed, hate and backstabbing. You are always your best friend, regardless of the circumstances on which you happen to find yourself in. Friends are only worthy of your time IF they are worthy of your friendship, your respect, and your trust. Be comfortable on occasion to be alone as well, if the relationship does not work out. Don't feel guilty. I...

(O.K.Cupid, Match, Plenty Of Fish, eHarmony) Satisfaction? Is there such a thing in relationships? I think most people keep singing the same song: "I can't get no satisfaction" ... (yeah I know there is a double negative in the grammar, but you get the point still!) I think loading new pictures is an effective tool in attracting new people. But what about the previous acquaintances? The old saying: the more things change the more they stay the same, still holds true: in truth the relationship begin with us, not in the next partner to be had. We must nurture that partner and manifest in him or her the loving qualities we desire, or we will never have a partner to desire, ever! New is not only seldom better, but it is a step back, a set back. like having to rebuild a house, after a storm tears the last one down. More partners to satisfy until we die is our motto! Satisfaction is a hard thing for most people. But it should...

Peace What is it? Why do we take it for granted? Or, do we take it for granted? Whatever the case may be, war is steady Peace is fragile. Does the human race have some lesson to learn here? We never seem to ‘get it right’. Could this possibly be BECAUSE OF US? The cycle goes on, like a trip around the moon We discover our own dune buggy but it is on a different side, the same side from whence we started. How is it that we see things differently in time and space? Things really aren't different, but we ‘think’ we have progress, we think we see things differently, ‘now’ or ‘this time around’. I’m reminded of what Wayne Dyer said of  human nature i.e. the human race, “When you live on a round planet, there is no choosing sides. Christ said something similar in the Gnostic Gospels, “Where the end is, there will the beginning be.” Consciousness may ‘be’ the secret to bringing the human race closer together, if there is such a thing. Beg...

It breaks my heart Today its easy to become weary. We see darkness all around us. Dishonesty at every level, manipulation and bullying, the lack of will to do the RIGHT THING when we know we should. Folks have turned inward and as a result, hearts have been broken: it breaks my heart too, because we need each other. Being lied to is no longer just a practice like it used to be, it's become a way of life. And how much can we get done as a society if we lie to each other?  if we bully? if we cheat each other? if we do only things that are in our own self interest while lying to each other about other things that are not in our OWN self interest, that we refuse to do for each other? (yet are things in the honest goodness of the day that we need to do for each other.) We see it not only in politicians, we see it in law enforcement. The love of many is waxing cold. People who say they are ...

Death  by Dewaine Wakeman Death is the great divider – it comes quickly and separates us. Some of us think we will live forever until old age starts to creep in. If you’ve had a spat with someone, and they are not a harmful person, send them love. Say hello, do the best you can for whoever it is even if they may actually be out of your circle of influence. Obviously, we cannot change the wrongs of the world (the things that people do to us), We can, however, change our attitudes towards them. It is only a myth that we ‘THINK” we are separated from each other. In reality, I am you and you are me – We are separated by egos, by thoughts, deeds and actions only. I am you for today, and you are me. The time is right to do the right thing, Together we are still one, However. we do not have an infinite amount of time to do the right thing. Death is the great divide, it comes for all, and to all. It separates us from each other! 

"The Lowest Thing A Human Being Can Do." by Dewaine Wakeman Selling drugs is the lowest thing a human being can do. If you don't think so, take a look around at all the lives you'll be wrecking. People will die because of you. (many of them will be quite young) people will grow addicted because of you, law enforcement will become overwhelmed because of you. People in other countries will flee because of you. People will purchase handguns and kill each other because of you (either intentionally, or accidently)  people will rob banks. liquor stores, convenience stores, and torture each other also because of you. Generations of  teens will be convicted and sent to prison because of you, babies will be born deformed, addicted and sickened because of you. Anyway, think this over before you sell drugs, the world's future, good or bad, is in YOUR HANDS!

Memoirs of a Pizza Guy Two long time friends reminisce: “I assume my future house will look just like this.” (displays a picture of Pizza Hut) I used to live there too Chad. I even got my P.H.D. there too! Pizza Hut Deliver 1994! 5000 safe driver hours. They even give you your gold wings, and a special hat to wear to show that you’re better than everyone else. And, you no longer have to carry your own city map when you go out on deliveries. Ah, yes, the finer moments in life: When you discover who you are! And who you are not! When the world is at your feet When the free pizza is as much free pizza as you can stand eating. And the extra hours are available only to those who are capable of carrying extra hours for someone else who didn’t want to work that evening. Aw yes! The good old days. I am homesick now. I even got to make my own personal pan pizzas And I didn’t have to pay for extra cheese either. The s...
