The new earth smells like rain

For whatever reason I died and the light lifted the light inside myself right up out of my body...and my soul went to a resting place for love... Heaven was not a struggle... and no place for regrets... As soon as you start regretting... you get back in that line again... jump back into a flaming husk again... but I hope I am finished with flaming husks...and regrets... Maybe that is what I came back for...
what I needed to say... Once we stop our burning for things that die... there is a door that opens up inside... to another dimension... another place...I have had a taste of it in a dream... Where you and I work...and live...and we even breathe the same air... but that air reminds me of the new smell of new rain in a fresh open meadow... and that smell is free of death... Death itself has died there...
I see it in my dreams... and sometimes my head pops up in the stream... of living water that flows through the land... and sometimes I see myself working with my hands,,, building homes that are made without killing anything...but rather... made only with material shed from plants and trees...
It was all very interesting there... in a new earth.. The music there... it was not electric... but beautiful... a distant flute...a magikal sound... and from many instruments i have never even heard of before... a thousand other sounds.... but they do not hurt the ear... Each sound does not compete with another sound...each sound a friend of every other sound...
In my dream...much like my NDE...there didn't seem to be any electricity there... but unlike heaven where there was no need for eating and drinking...in this new earth..,the one in my in my dream... there was food and water...but there was no hunger or thirst... but we ate fruit...and drank wonderful water... and a special kind of grain...that didn't kill the plant for its harvesting... The earth in my dream is much like this earth but there was no killing in it... food was not killed... It came from plants but the plant or vine... or tree gave you just its fruit..or excess...somehow a much more gentle way of living... no more injuring or killing anything to survive... and with death vanquished... there is no jealousy... no need to rush... but there is a lot going on there... each of us giving our gifts to one another... a kind of bartering system... all of our needs are met...
In this new earth...there is no need for greed... everything can wait until its time is ripe to harvest and I could go on and on and on but I know I am not doing it justice... I might go there if I could try one more time of living in a body... but I still have to live in this world though...for one last time...where everything I eat, drink, see, hear, and touch is tainted with death... but sometimes I can smell that rain... sometimes I can hear that flute... the sound of the river of life...flowing through....

Cleanse your body of toxins and wastes. Feel vibrant and youthful again!
Sarah Mclauchlan - Answer
I will be the answer
At the end of the line
I will be there for you
While you take the time
In the burning of uncertainty
I will be your solid ground
I will hold the balance
If you can't look down
If it takes my whole life
I won't break, I won't bend
It will all be worth it
Worth it in the end
Cause I can only tell you what I know
That I need you in my life
When the stars have all gone out
You'll still be burning so bright
Cast me gently
Into morning
For the night has been unkind
Take me to a
Place so holy
That I can wash this from my mind
The memory of choosing not to fight
If it takes my whole life
I won't break, I won't bend
It will all be worth it
Worth it in the end
'Cause I can only tell you what I know
That I need you in my life
When the stars have all burned out
You'll still be burning so bright
Cast me gently
Into morning
For the night has been unkind

This is a reply to # 1,125,467Thanks again. The song was ok, but the words
"Take me to a
Place so holy
That I can wash this from my mind
The memory of choosing not to fight"
really mean something to me right now. I've been looking for an answer to what I can learn from me doing exactly what my boss wanted, and the person retaliating illegally against me and my boss not backing me up afterwards. I guess I needed a holier perspective. When you step back and see the whole picture there is nothing to fight. I wonder what action should be taken for this person taking it out on my employees too? Give it too God, and let her have enough rope to hang herself with and keep the faith?
Sorry for the babbeling blog. This has been coming to a head over the last few days. Any advise especially from someone who has been there before would be great.- A Third WAy rudenski

I am of the ilk that often chooses not to fight the fights that others would choose for me. I had a little job for Dell Computers many years ago. It was the second of three jobs I had trying to take care of my young family. I worked in the parts' department and the place was terribly disorganized. It was a new company housed in a warehouse and things were too chaotic to make it a pleasant place to work. I completely reorganized it and it was like night and day much better for the effort. Things began to operate much smoother and soon after, the little Dell company boomed into a much larger operation. After a massive effort on mt part, I was relaxing, joking, and talking to my peers and my immediate supervisor came up to me and ridiculed me for what... I can't remember...but I do remember my response... I said, "If you don't love the work I am doing here then, I will quit... and then I said... no... I take that back.... I quit,,, and I punched the clock and went home. Dell went on to become something big but I am so glad that I chose not to get involved in some kind of fight over something as silly as a job that just pays bills. Work is such a big soaker of our time but it doesn't have to steal our joy...rob our soul. I might have been something special at Dell if I had stayed on but instead I chose a different life.
I think it is more important to clear the air and get things back to a place of joy than to get wrapped up in other people's angst. Reassurances for those that are hurt are better to me than going after people who have done harm to myself and others... Maybe that was a mistake on my part? I know that I have always sought places to work where I was allowed to shine... There always seems to be jealous types that want to bring me down but rather than retaliate... I just redouble my efforts to shine more... and failing that...move on... "We are only in this world for a little while. We might as well do what makes us smile." I hope that helps.
That line you quoted from the song was the one that stood out to me as a diamond...
I know that choosing not to fight and supporting those who were injured may be passive aggressive but it is better than apathy. I believe in fighting injustice with light rather then piling up darkness on top of darkness. Perhaps there is a third path for you in the place where you are now. I hope you find that way. I might be a millionaire today if I had but I have had a wonderful if often painful life. I wish you well GodSpeak. I have admired you from afar for as long as you have been coming to CZ.

This is a reply to # 1,126,983Thanks again Rudi! I guess I followed your advise without really knowing it. I avoided everyone and everything yesterday and totally put my nose to the grind stone and got a lot accomplished. I felt a lot better. "redoubled my efforts to shine more" The place where I work is like Dell was aparently when it started out. Totally unorganized. Unfortunately or fortunately I'm the stubborn type that never gives up. I love my field of work and knew I was walking into the biggest challange I've ever had. I just didn't know it was this big. I also love the growth gained from such experiences, and with growth comes growing pains. I think I needed a reminder from above to remember a lesson I already learned before.
I've always admired you too ever since you came here Rudi. You're a great spirit. I've been here a lot longer than this name implies.
Thanks again for the advise Rudi! I feel renewed. And God bless you on your journeys!
