Enter the Cave



“The very cave you are afraid to enter turns out to be the source of what you are looking for. The damn thing in the cave that was so dreaded has become the center.” Joseph Campbell 

So, there’s two words we must consider:  “Source” and the “Center”. So, the question is what do these words mean to you and more importantly what is the benefit of experiencing them? Now, if we know the cave is the answer, and it is, what price am I willing to pay? It truly is the avenue of traveling from the Mind (Fear/Cave) to the Heart (Love/Source). Out of the deepest abyss comes the voice of Salvation. Fear is a shapeshifter. It is cunning. And we give it all the power over us. The Cave is the most frightening thing on Earth; until I enter it. 

The Freedom exists where you stumble. There and only there is your treasure. It is the call of Life for you to face it! How much freedom do you want? How much peace do you wish to have? It’s up to you. Unfortunately, know one can walk through your fear for you. They can simply tell you of the jewels they found in the abyss of their Cave. 

Approached by men & women who carried their treasure and embraced freedom, there was nothing left for us but to answer the call and enter the cave. As we enter scales fall from us. It loses its grip. We feel a sense of wonder that comes after finally facing ourselves! 

Renewed we step from the darkness that has turned on our light. Carrying our treasure we are elated to give it away. This freedom is too good to be kept a secret. The cave held only the power that I gave it. Now, I claim it. It has returned to me.

From Darkness to Light ~ Mike F.

“But if you will seek God earnestly, and plead with the almighty, if you're pure and upright, even now he will rouse himself on your behalf and restore you to your prosperous state. Your beginnings will seem humble, so prosperous your future will be”. ~ Book of Job From Darkness to Light....~ At a very young age I felt a disconnect spiritually. A lot of times I felt less then or that I didn't quite fit in. I would use sports to compensate or lose myself In collecting baseball cards. I started experimenting with weed and liquor in middle school. When I was a freshman in high school my step father passed away. That crushed me. The disconnect I felt as a child got worse and there was a void inside me that I could not fill. The pain led me to use drugs and alcohol on a regular basis. I was addicted by 16 years old; selling to support my habit. During this time I put myself in some horrible situations. I was robbed at gun point with a shotgun put to my head; not something ...

 The Tides of Life  tide /tīd/ Learn to pronounce noun noun: tide; plural noun: tides the alternate rising and falling of the sea, usually twice in each lunar day at a particular place, due to the attraction of the moon and sun. The tides of Life flow endlessly for better or worse - to rise and fall - to live to die. The current hurls the tide. It is the currents function to move, to throw, to float, to create and the tide to lift the sea. Mother Nature has her function and it is always fulfilled. The Sea, void of tide and current is an abyss of stillness and would be a horizon of glass. It sometimes looks that way! That’s when we dive in and lift the weight of gravity off our shoulders! Hopefully swim with some sea turtles. How cool that we oppose a universal law - Gravity - in the ocean!? Gravity doesn’t go anywhere. It still has its hold on the Universe. It just simply doesn’t control us to the degree it does on land! Suhhh hahhh dude. Okay, back on script. Ocean ...

The Hideous Four Horseman

 Terror Bewilderment Frustration and Despair The four  pillars of collision . Let us bring these Horseman to life. They gallop upon us with rapacious intent. I open the gate tp these predators. I scream and cry of the misfortune i've brought myself. What have I done to deserve this?! I the bewildered one. Why? I must suspend the question of "why?" and face the fact of these Horsemen. See, asking the question of "why?" will NEVER give me the answer. I must accept the reality of being surrounded by the hideous four horseman. If I desire freedom I must look into the black abyss thier hooded faces carry. Resistance will be fatal. "All the Heavens, All the Hells and Gods are within you." Joseph Campbell These Horseman are the Evil within me. It takes courage and grit to be willing to look into the darkest, most repressed parts of our psyche. We become dangerous when we resist and deny the evil within us. The Horsemen are powerful overwhelming forces with...
