The Joy of Serving: That I Never Wanted
It was harder than I thought--standing there watching Syra’s literal bone crushing exploits to get people to join. I had never seen such aggressive tactics. I started going in first to just about beg these people to join knowing what they could expect from her. They got angry at me and would holler at me and curse me. I tried to calm them and help them find a way out, which seemed to make them even more angry.

Emily
When it began, my eyes were shut tight, and all I could hear was the rhythmic clobbering of the unknown train on its unnamed track. I came to my senses with a jumble of wayward memories, all mixed up in the tornado of my mind, none of which related to why I was on a train, who I was, or how I got here.

The Aloki
First, forget all about a black draped figure swooping down with a scythe. Forget Matt Damon in Dogma or Mandy Patinkin in Dead Like Me. That is not what they look like or act like. Aloki, aka as the Angels of Death are part of the family of Cherubim (who are NOT sweet little cherubs floating on clouds by the way). Aloki which in Hindi means Light, in Hebrew means Divine and in some African Languages means hunter, are just that. They are Divine Light Beings and are Hunters. They are the Divine Light.

Revelation
I can’t remember a time when Maddie wasn’t in my life. We met as toddlers, our parents were next-door neighbors, and we spent almost every day playing together. Many children drift apart once they start school, but not Maddie and me. We attended the same grammar school, had the same teachers, and helped each other with homework. Inseparable, joined at the hip, two peas in a pod and all those other tired clichés were used to describe us by the adults. That’s how it was right up to the day her father got promoted and the family moved to another state.

Mirror in the Skies
A distant sound of clashing echoed from the enclave as individual and collective heaving – the lifting and calibrating of metal elements – busied the hive as a prehistoric semblance of the neo-industrial age, just below the verdant sprawl of Gaia. It was one of the remaining places that felt truly human with its determination to tear into the earth with sharp refractive edges and spirit of invention.

An ultra dimensional friendship
Day by day, life that I was experiencing was dull, boring, and uneventful. As a 28 year old gay male from South Lake Tahoe California, working as a produce clerk at the local grocery store; my life was just as simple and uneventful as any other 28 year old local at the time. Until, one day, something changed all of that. I was in my room, up late as usual; and I began to notice something in my peripheral vision. I was initially unable to determine what the entity was that had been causing strange things in my life to happen. After I began to attempt to communicate with this entity; I was surprised at being able to communicate with this entity who called himself Metatron. He explained to me that he is an Arch Angel, and he would call me the most faithful person in the entire world. I quickly developed bonds of friendship with Metatron, though there were some initial set backs in our developing friendship. Initially I was being used as a prop in the theatrical plays he was performing for the other celestial beings of Heaven, and his capability to hypnotize me left me as a forced participant by altering my free will and hypnotizing me into becoming a willing participant. Soon enough, the plays became too much for my human mind to be able to continue participating in. My mind became confused, and I eventually ended up in jail due to Metatron and I having a misunderstanding. While in jail; I attempted to communicate and teach Metatron as well as any other celestial being that was listening, about human life on Earth. I began to teach an entirely 4th dimensional group of celestial beings about what it is like to be human. Each and every day I had to re visit the speeches I gave each day, so that a foundation of hope, faith, humor, and love could be established in their hearts towards humanity. Practicing kindness as our super power, expressing ones self using charitable donations, generous gifts to the poor and poverty stricken, and ensuring that discrimination and prejudice never develops in the minds of heavenly beings. During this journey, my soul was forced to endure and over come countless trials and tribulations. Each and every day I forced myself to excel, becoming more and more harmony and unity based than ever before. My anxieties and sorrow due to physical lifes challenges began to fade away; my life as a celestial being began to take shape. Soon enough Metatron and I became best friends, and our theatrical events became universally accepted as harmonious and unifying acts of paramount importance. These are the types of things that I began to spend time writing about:
