The snow falls. The temperature drops.
Winter is feeling good.
He doesn’t notice the growing light.
He believes in the depths of his frozen heart
that he will rule forever.

Where is it written…
that the resources of the earth do not belong to all the earthlings?
that many should go without food while others have more than they can ever eat?
that anyone should lack health care while others can surgically manipulate already healthy bodies?
It’s written on the signs of the times.

but think nothing of traveling to the future in an unbalanced society.”

Scientists at the Shandong-Lanxiang Polytechnical Institute in China have developed a nanoprionspin microscope that can render emotions in graphic form. By measuring the energy difference in the vibrations between metalic and non-metalic atoms the microscope can trace a pattern of feelings.
The picture above has no physical equivalent, according to Professor Li Siqun, but expresses emotional experience during a female orgasm as recorded in the brain through carbon nanotube (CNT) sensors. She stresses that the actual emotion is not as symmetrical as the graphic representation indicates. The rendition captures two points in a dynamic process with a 16 nanosecond interval. What looks like a mirrored image to the naked eye contains significant difference on a 64 bit resolution level. These differences can be measured and analyzed to determine the strength and harmony of the emotion.
Professor Li explains that they are forced to work with strong emotions at this point, but intend to refine the process to deal with more subtle emotions. Eventually, this technique will allow a psychological analysis of a patient in minutes instead of the weeks and months required for traditional psychoanalytical methods.
This technique can also be used to test the emotional compatibility of two individuals. The research team is divided over this possibility. Some claim it will kill love while others say it will match true love and ensure that it ripens.
I don’t know about the ability of this technology, but when it comes to love, I prefer the old-fashioned kiss-testing method. Call me conservative.

Bersha is old and tired. And warm.
She feels her life dripping away.
She knows the end is near and that the knowledge of her experience will vanish. Without new resources, new cold and new snow, hope is an illusion.
She looks at the people walking below her.
They are not powerless, she thinks, but they don’t use their power to sustain their existence, so what good is it. If they can’t secure their supply of resources they will melt from the earth.
They may pride themselves on existing for a couple of hundred thousand years.
Ants, spiders, earwigs and rats think that’s hilarious.

Meters above a busy bus stop on a rock wall Anstigon, a rock bird, watches the herds of commuters.
Many of them have speakers stuffed into their ears. Some are speaking into a mobile phone or dancing their fingers over its glass surface. They all carrying something, a bag or a backpack. Some are reading a free ad-heavy newspaper. Except for an odd couple no one smiles or speaks.
Bus after bus stops. People get off and people get on.
”What strange creatures”, thinks Anstigon. ”Many of the people who get on in the morning get off across the street in the evening. Back and forth to the same place. They could just as well have stayed here and talked with me. But they don’t see me. From what I can gather, they don’t see much else of the world either. Back and forth, back and forth. They’re usually carrying more stuff when they come back. Back and forth just to fetch stuff. What strange creatures.”

People often ask about what they can do to promote a better world. Among the 1000s of things that can be done, one stands out as a moral imperative. Give for what you get.
We are cradled in the belief that many things are free. They are not. Most ”free” sites, all free newpapers and many other give-aways are channels of advertisements. The advertisers pay for them to reach your eyes-balls. The cost of the adverts are tagged on to the price of the products. You wind up paying anyway.
We are encouraged to be takers. The world needs more givers.
Wikipedia is dedicated to giving information and knowledge to the people of the world. It contains no advertising and has no government support. It gives on the principle that people will pay for what they get and support its efforts.
Have you gotten anything from Wikipedia? Has it helped you? Has it given you knowledge and information?
Please give something for what you get. Go to Wikpedia and make a donation. Like with true love, you’ll get back more than you give.
“Love is not to give and get.
It’s to give and receive.”

_______________________________________________________
We are earthlings.
Constructed from elements of the earth,
a living part of the earth,
interacting with the earth.
The earth does not give us what we need,
it provides. For everything.
We take from what is available.
We take. Take and take…
We transform what we take
and throw it back to the earth
as junk.
We slaughter ancient forests,
tear apart noble mountains,
create rivers and islands of plastic,
contaminate the air,
heat the atmosphere
and treat each other as so much junk as well.
Many who still have water to drink
and food to eat
dance in the light of the flames of decadence,
dangling stuff,
singing about money,
dreaming of fame,
praying for love
and searching for happiness in hollow souls
by screaming, ”I’m worth it.”
A chilly echo bounces through the hollowness, ” … worth it, worth it…”
Who can deny that earthlings are worth what nature has in store for them?
“People who believe that life owes them something
are unaware of the value of life.”

Traces remain of where their paths crossed.
He was going to.
She was coming from.
A few seconds kept them apart
forever.
Other paths and other crossings await
everything
for eternity.
“Priests and KKKers embrace the same cross.
Beware of symbols
and idol worship.”

The frozen heart
cracked
jagged
bleeding cold white passion
claims morality
in the heritage of its form.
Be careful not to step on it.
It breaks easily
to swallow you into icy darkness.
“A frozen heart can be cracked with a blow
or melted with warmth.”
