It's On! = from Peta-de-Aztlan =Tuesday Morning

Tuesday, August 7, 2007 ~ @9:21 AM
Hola Shelita and Others Bcc: ~ I always remember that life goes on within us and life surely goes on without us. None of us are indispensable, though some would perhaps be missed more than others.

I am glad my Cousin Marcos is moving to San Francisco as he loves The City and I will be able to visit him there when I want to get away from Sacramento.

Here is a Link with pictures from our July 4th Holiday trip:

It seems that Sonny, a youngster who stays in the back of the house here in a little apartment will be coming up here... from outback to upfront.

He is cool and into the AA Program, plays bass guitar and it should work out well. For me, change sometimes causes consternation but I generally go with the flow. Let go and let God!

Once again I do not want to waste my writing time in little Emails when I am working on a book so please do not overload me. I might do like Doctor Linda and do a once a week post. Then, my other communications devices are over Barbara's, such as, my mike, cam-corder and stuff.

Some people Email me with little one-line messages that usually just waste time and contain snippets I could live without having to add them to my extremely limited reservoir of knowledge.

I guess I need to download Yahoo IM now as I do not believe I have it yet, but then this laptop is pretty much a virgin {probably as close as I will get to putting my hands on one... for us, smile}. However, Yahoo has a way of sneaking in a bunch of crap that just takes up valuable space.

I do not want my Laptop I am using here now to have all the bells and whistles that my Desktop has.

I down loaded Picassa here and it does not have the hundreds of pictures my other computer has. This Compaq Laptop only has 18.6 GB and my other HP Desktop has a lot more, plus, some other different drives. I could probably run a small Banana Republic with it!

There power of the Internet is a key way for developing mass education among the masses.

Comcast was going to charge me $50 to install Internet here with a CD that the Comcast guy had but I did it myself for free. People's ignorance about high-technology can be expensive for them. So now I have goood Internet connection here and can write and share with others from here now.

The key to a lot of my personal writings has been being honest and open about my life, my thoughts and the life changes I go through. I realize that we are all humans with the same basic fears, hopes and dreams. Thus, when I open up I also open up for all those souls who are afraid of revealing themselves, their inner thoughts and inner feelings about life.

Naturally, openness requires courage and leaving one's self open to criticism from others, especially when we are on the World Wide Web!

It gets easier for us to be open when we fathom the fact that people are often fragile fearful creatures and many are governed by their fears, not their faith in themselves, faith in Creator God and faith in their own sense of self-esteem.

I 'feel' in closer conscious contact with the Creator when I am being 'creative' and writing. Writing also helps us concentrate better on what are really our ideas and ideals. Buddhist thinking emphasizes us to look at the big picture and not get stuck on minor matters.

As a friend of mine said: "Don't worry about the rocks when there's cattle on the trail!"

If we check out the postings on a lot of progressive group websites a lot of it is of course only regugitating the news without any personal spin or comments on it by the sender. Plus, it cracks me up how some lefties can be so wrapped up about foreign affairs, such as Iraq-nam, then totally ignore what is going on their own frontyards!

For me, this means looking at the homeless ~America's domestic refugees~ and other domestic connected realities that shows such as CNN generally ignore as not being newsworthy. The whole system of health care in this country is terrible!!!!!

One thing about not having Internet connection here until yesterday is that I would actually write more on othe stuff. For me, writing is really a slow tortuous process. Of course, having an OCD tinge that also has a strain of perfectionism does not help... though sometimes it does.

Well, I better get ready for work at the Salvation Army, take a shower and stuff. As usualy when I get there I will check out the casualties list and see who is MIA or NS {Not Show}, or PVA {Program Violation Alcohol} etc.

My friend Walter, who I was hoping without a previous worry would help manage a sane and sober house, is ~last I heard~ still Missing In Action. My Brother Bobby is still at a West Sac motel room. Mark went to the kennels at Loaves & Fishes with a pup we had here yesterday. Some homeless people cannot even take care of themselves, but want to drag other living beings into their tragic dramas, such as, pets, children and other hostages.

I will Blog this to my Blog Journal from this Email. From here it goes to my Blog in a draft form via a private blog Email address, then, I go there and edit it for blog posting.

If others have not done so I encourage them to get their own online journal going. I did this with my Sponsor Doctor Linda and she now has her own blog!

See> http://shabbat-shalom-jerusalem.blogspot.com/

Us having the courage to have online journals will open up doors, including doors to our own inner consciousness.

Blessings and Prayers for Fulfillingness!
Your Brother Peter S. Lopez ~ aka Peta

Monday Evening ~ I finally have Internet Connection
over my Cousin Mark's place here across town from
where I am usually on the Internet over Barbara's
miles from here. From where I am here over Mark's
I can always walk to work.

I hope to maintain better communications with
others as time goes by. It is definite my Cousin
Mark will be moving to San Francisco in a couple
of months. I plan to stay in Sacramento and I suppose
I will stay at this house. I have other options.
