I yearn for someone who can teach me. And now that I think of it, I believe most of the people in this modern world are in need of that too. So bringing spiritual power together, also includes negative force. I need to know more. This is important to me.

We have a situation where humans seem to survive outside of nature. I watch the deer, and wonder if I could survive. I don't think so. And that is serious. I need modern society in order to survive? That seems pathetic. If we're this out of touch with nature, just how much out of touch are we with these spiritual forces? I honestly believe that the further we are removed from nature, the less capable we are at having the spiritual insights.

I wonder what the great battle will be. Perhaps we're seeing this in this election. Some see, and some don't.

I miss having a wise mind to share with and learn from. Now that I think of it, that's what Bernie is to me.
