Opinions and Thoughts of LightHouse Dann Verner - Just as he is!

Final Preparations For Jordan’s Celebration of Life February the first is just about here. A day I dread.   The day my wife, Jennifer, my oldest son, Randy, my youngest son, Dakota must say our farewell   to our son and their brother. For those who have asked, here are the details and location of the Service and Reception. Saturday, February 1, 2020 at 4 PM – 7 PM at the Canadian Legion Hall Number 73, 2 Robinson Avenue, Toronto,  (Danforth Avenue and Danforth Road) Anxiety is high for the family. I am worried for my wife. She has been staying strong as she can. Yet, I know how she feels inside. I know she is hiding ninety-nine percent of her pain. She is brave that way. Forget not that she is also watching me slowly deteriorate. Everyday wondering if this is the day Dann passes from his cancer? A father’s love is like no other, also, A strong genetic companionship of the Alpha and his Beta’s. ` Daddy Know`s Best ` so follow your Father and learn to be a good ma...

​So, once again my beautiful Irish Guardian Angel, Sheena Eve has touched me.  As most you know, I have had nine various surgeries and invasive procedures since last November.  Many of these for very painful implantations or removal of said implants. This past Friday I had two stents and two ungodly long drainage tubes removed. In previous similar processes, I would be screaming and writhing in unbearable pain.  But; At my surgical procedure, this time,  a woman I had met there before, Joyce; who has terminal  cancer, passes me a lace bag with an Angel Stone and tells me,   “You won’t feel any pain Dann”  And I never felt a thing.  Angels do exist …. Maybe not in your  Biblical belief or in any “religious” perception.  But, in a SPIRITUAL existence Angels do exist. RELIGIONS ARE MANMADE. “SPIRITUALLY” COMES FROM OUR INNER SOUL.  I received the name   “LightHouse” shortly after my after-death exp...

I AM TIRED. ....VERY TIRED ​As I sit here fighting this demon at three o'clock in the morning,  I am totally ashamed and disgusted with myself for what I have done to my life and the affect it has upon my child. I cannot recall one minute of my past existence that can compare to the disaster which I now am living. I am lost. I am broken.  I am repairable and I know which path I should be walking on, but I cannot repair myself.  Deep down inside I am struggling with a very dark entity and I am riddled with guilt,  shame, weakness and dangerous emotions. I know I am mentally  stronger than most people.  I know that all things must pass I know I will never take the cowards way out of this sorrow.  I know that I am truly loved by many, many beautiful souls, for it is their love and friendship that fuels my fighter and  logical self. BUT ...... I must confess that I am weak -  I am so very tired.   I fear I have not the ps...

So, touchy subject, 'SUICIDE' - I do believe you all may have heard of this quirky little characteristic you humans have. This evening, after a few accidental shots of good old old Wray & Nephew combined with the cancer meds, my lust for kush weed and the newly acquired pneumonia meds. (Yes folks on top of everything else I now have pneumonia - I had a different one in the sixties behind the high school - she spelt her name"Knew Moanforya - just saying) Ok, come on here - damn - suicide is a serious thing!!!!!! ' I know this as fact - I actually did kill myself before and was brought back by two burly EMS angels and a divine misconception or maybe intervention.'    You can read briefly about it in my previously published : "I COMMITTED SUICIDE ONCE" http://dannverner.blogspot.com/2008/07/i-committed-suicide-once.html?spref=bl Now, what brought me to sit and dance on these keys this fine evening was a...

MMXVI - Wow, made it! I am honestly surprised. There has to be many who know me and my ways that are equally amazed. So, I asked my invisible friend if he knew what my other self thought of all this. He replied with a lyric from Yelawolf and Ed Sheeran's 'Slumdon Bridge', "I'll be coming up, when the sun goes down. Rolling like a rock till I hit the ground. Running from the Lord cause I can't be found. Only MY God can track me down". OMG, people. How did these two musicians get into the minds of LightHouse Shakie Dann Verner? I am 58 years old now - five point eight decades of rocking, rolling, laughing, crying, living and dying. At least the living part out weighs the dying. Seven times dead, but EIGHT times re-born. Never judge a cover by the book. Words lie, pictures are truth. So, 'nuff said. I will live the re-born life and all the strife that comes with it for I still have fifty-four years to live before my final passing. Ch...

Wake each day and give thanks that you are here. Wake each day and give thanks for your family. Wake each day and give thanks for the roof above your head. Wake each day and give thanks for the food in your kitchen. Wake each day and give thanks for the air, the Sun and the bounty of nature. Wake each day and give thanks for the wisdom the Creator's have given. Wake each day and give thanks for all you have in this space/time continuum. Go to rest every night knowing that you will give thanks again when morning befalls you. Give praise to whoever you may perceive as the Creator's - believe me when I tell you, they are all seeing and all knowledgeable. Blessed was I to have lived the life I have so as I could pass my experience to those who may be guided not to follow my path. May they follow the path of righteousness and love. So sayeth The LightHouse ......... I remain, Dann, just as I am. Who will you be?

My life has been a twisted, almost paranormal trip. Many experiences that few have had the pleasure of living. Met tens of thousand various people of every walk there lays in life. I have been evil, I have been good. I have met unholy and walked with the Holy. I have been homeless and I have fed the homeless. I have died seven times and lived eight. I would not change a thing except maybe being able to sing.

SOMETIMES Sometimes we live. Sometimes we die. Sometimes we give. Sometimes we cry. Sometimes we stand to live. Sometimes we sit to die. Eight times I did live. Seven times I did die. This time I live and worry. This time I stand and pray. This time from Death I scurry. This time I wish for a new day. Today I ponder. Today I shake. Today I wonder........ does my soul they “take”. It is to be decided by your Gods, and Shake.
