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

So, May is about to end and we shall begin the journey into June with all it's fine weather and the Light of a summer sun. May was rough this year. The tragic death of a close and dear friend, Sheena Eve (missing you dearly) added to the emotions that I have been wracked with these past few months. The incompetency of the government in the way they deal with monetary issues - funny how if you happen to owe them money you must pay right away, BUT if they owe you, "The cheque is in the mail". The Creators took our Sheena . I overstand why. A few times in your life you will be Blessed with intertwining your path with that of certain unique and truly precious souls. Sheena was/is such. Never from her mouth would you hear an argument or unfounded bad word. Her aura was violet, her eyes were peace, tranquility and joy. When she walked into a darkened room, the Light would follow - she was a "Sparkle Bitch" ( a term she used herself). Her physical self has left...

I find it so interesting to spend time with not only my only children, but the offspring of my friends also. Being over the half century mark in age, I have discovered that as much as young people can learn from my wisdom, I, too, can learn and GROW from their knowledge. Youth is the time of development whereas the human mindset is operating as a very expensive Apple Computer. Information is gobbled, chewed and processed at an incredible bitrate. Without the maturity and learned behaviors of us, the "Elders" of society, it would/is very easy for this information to get processed in a way that can destroy a young life. I hear many acquaintances utter that they cannot 'help' their child. Sometimes, they ask not for help, but rather an ear willing to hear their words. I take pride in carefully explaining the complexities of modern life to my sons. I teach them that every picture not only has a thousand words, but also a thousand interpretations. No one opinion is wr...

I love the spring - it brings upon me the opposing feel of Autumn. All is fresh and anew. The dampness of the rains are infused with the sweet aroma's of fledgling plants. Their tiny sprouts ruggedly forcing upwards through the muddy soil, so as we all can witness the powers of Atomic Mother Earth and the beauty She can give. With the launch of this new season, one must also initiate the sequence of self-adjustment that allows our physical and mental selves to regroup and refresh the mindset. Time should now be taken to analyze ourselves in order to set in place the necessary wisdom and gained knowledge to assume the role of maturity. As an adult human it is the persona's duty to walk boldly into the void of so-called modern society and allow fellow mankind to learn and emote the knowledge gained in the winters of our minds. We are both teacher and student in this path of life. Other soul's lives give unto us the wisdom gained from their mistakes, victories and life le...

So, I am back and have begun another walk down this virtual highway. Life is full of change, some is spent, some is welcomed - all is part of life. Many changes have crossed my life path this past year. I have matured and aged like a fine wine and now I hold within my hands the opportunity for a better path to follow. The Shadow knows - as he always follows us. There are new friends, old friends with new ways, soon to be friends who bring joy and love. There is new business, old business and business yet to appear. Life is hardest when you are led to believe it is easy. If not for difficulties why would we bother living it? I love life, I love mine and yours. We were meant to share life with each other. I share mine with the world - via the virtual and existing worlds. Soon I shall be back in full swing of wisdom and knowledge and allow you all to once more "Take A Walk With Dann". Wait for me....here and there.

Mindsets are odd little things. They are versatile and, in most case scenario's, useful. I love observing the mindsets of human's in their natural environment. I spend many hours collecting the tidbits of knowledge, humour and complaints. This accounts for how I have been enabled to see life from so many viewpoints and angles of perceptions. I have been blessed by learning inner knowledge via the knowledge and life lessons of my fellow dwellers on this planetary continuum of space/time. One can learn so much in the instant it takes to watch another life form walk in the mists of society. For instance.... To ingest the systematic behaviorism of the fresh vegetable purchaser....the way their fingers coarsely, but yet softly caress the surface of each and every ear of corn, stroke every length of celery and the intense stare as they visually examine the quality of the expected purchase. If through third eye sightedness you can overstand the emotion, the sincerity and the intellige...

(Re-post - original posting March 2008 dannverner.spaces.live) I woke Up And Realized It Was Confession Time......... Interesting thought...... In my 38 years living on my own in the deepest roots of the darkest part of society and then later in years living in the deepest roots of being rich and "Joe Citizen", then returning to become a meager man, "Just Dann", I have discovered a few things that have been constant throughout all ages - some people are good, some evil and some are agitators in the machine. The reason our youth are like they are is the learned behaviorism from us adults. Our media, our ways and our quest to hide behind intoxicants and drugs so that we do not see the reality we have created. Our constant and very much genetic habit of "finding a reason to misplace blame", our reluctance to readily admit, "I fucked up". There is quite a difference in allowing one's self to want to save society and people as a whole and trying t...

Just a little something I thought Deserved Our Attention...... MARK CRIPPS MANAGING EDITOR, TALES FROM THE CRYPT http://www.hamiltonmountainnews.com/news/article/211352 http://www.ancasternews.com/news/article/211226 http://www.dundasstarnews.com/opinions/article/211226 I don’t know if Mayor Fred Eisenberger ever smoked pot. If he did, he wouldn’t feel out of place at the post-election party of candidates vying for the mayor’s job in the municipal election later this year. Of the four candidates who have declared an intention to run for the city’s top elected job, two are marijuana activists – Michael Baldasaro and . Maybe Fred did smoke pot when he was a much younger man, but didn’t inhale? If I were mayor of this city, I’d be smoking weed every day. A good stoner may be exactly what this city needs. Baldasaro has run for the mayor’s job before. Leader of the Church of the Universe, he also ran for Parliament in 1984, 2000 and 2004. Aside from his degree in “weedology,” Haines is list...

Just a quick note to remind everyone to bear in mind that as this summer heat arrives we should keep an eye out for people less fortunate and assist them anyway we can. What's a bottle of water worth? A LIFE, THAT IS WHAT! I walk with those who have fallen between the cracks and it causes me suffering to absorb their suffering. Compassion is one of the primary necessities in life. Have compassion my fellow Lights......for by example we can lead all into the cooling warmth of that which is 'The Light'. Namaste' Brethren........

My Lords! It is already May 7th and 2010! That's a long way from my birth in 1957 and yet, I still shall live till July 17th, 2069. What a marvelous journey this shall be. How do I know the day I will ascend? I have always known. For as far back as I can remember in this time/space continuum I have known my 'death' date. I know not why I know - I just know. I am also aware that it shall be a tasked passage with many physical, mental and spiritual tests along the way. I have been tested before - some I passed and many more I failed, miserably. Failure is the stepping stone for success - remember this always - for every action, no matter on what plain, there is always an opposite and yet equal reaction. This applies to all - the physical - the mental and especially the Spiritual. Darkness needs Light and Light needs the Darkness, Pain needs Pleasure, Empathy needs Apathy - all balances out for the greater good. I spoke a while back about the so-called "New World Order...

So, I pleasured my senses by watching "Across The Universe" for the twentieth time. As usual, I had tears roll down my cheeks, at certain points. Emotion. Emotion. Emotion. Brought on by the mystical lyrics of Masters Lennon and McCartney. Or perhaps not.....perhaps not. Perhaps brought on by my memories of the Cultural Revolution I was blessed to live in and through during my formable years. There can never be a repetition of the gift given to modern society by the Beatles. That t-shirt has been worn. Their's was the catalyst of the dawning of the age of Aquarius. The frontal mass of the Army of Peace. It amazes me that a simple, poetic, well thought written song or, rather, a collection of songs, can bring forth such emotional thought processes in so great a number of souls. Mankind can never witness a feat as this again. Because they have surpassed the simplicity of the message. Ninety nine percent of modern day music carries little or no meaning (other then "m...
