humanity – The Narrow Path

Love for Mankind

Some have given up on humanity and focus on our destructive nature

Some believe only will power and technology will save us from self
destruction

Some want to leave earth behind and escape into the sky

My truth is that humanity is worth
saving

Humanity is worth unconditional love

But we must return to little children once again to save ourselves from destruction

Children who haven’t closed their hearts to love

Only true unconditional love can save us

No amount of willpower or technology will save us from the greed, hatred and fear inside us

Only forgiveness, love, and radical nonviolence can liberate humanity

Don’t lose hope

Don’t close your hearts and become cynical

Keep your heart open to love as children do

Your brother,

Johnny

Brothers & Sisters

There once was a star in the milky way

Until one day this star grew old

This distant star died & transformed into a supernova

Sending its space dust in the vast darkness of the Universe

Until one day this dust accumulated and condensed under pressure

To form our home, Earth

The star never truly died

It was reborn

Reborn as you, me, and every species that has existed on this planet

We are brothers & sisters

Sharing this beautiful planet together

With Aloha,

Johnny

The Battle Within

Divinity is found

Within you and I

But also ego

All humans have this battle within

Dark & light

Devil & angel

Ego & divine

Grow the divine fertile seeds with love & compassion

Acknowledge the ego

Bow to it

Feed it carefully

Feed it with understanding

Care for the darker side

For in caring for the dark we grow the light

Holiness

Billions of humans

All which are holy

No matter

How lost

Broken

Confused

Hurt

Blinded by anger

Suffocated in fear

I vow to see the holiness in all

But first

I must treat myself

As a holy man

No matter how lost

Or broken I am.

Peace Starts With Me.

Violence on my TV.

Hatred in the YouTube comments.

Fear of the great unknown.

This is the suffering of humanity.

So how can I help alleviate this suffering?

By inquiring within.

Within my violence & hatred.

Within my fear.

By showing compassion to darkness in my soul.

Peace will only be known if we become it.

Darkness.

The darkness surrounds me.

Fear consuming every thought.

Anger pulsating through every cell.

Hatred burning into my soul.

Greed filling up my mind.

Do I resist the darkness?

Do I suppress these dark emotions?

No.

I will accept the darkness.

I will honor the greed, anger, hatred, and fear inside me as part of who I am.

But I vow to shine light into the darkness of my soul.

The light of love.

The light of kindness.

The light of compassion.

The light of forgiveness.

I will show the darkness another way.

Gratitude.

I breathe in.

I smile.

How wonderful it is to be alive!

Joy pulsates through my body.

A smile lights across my face.

My heart beats with compassion.

My lungs full of gratitude.

Grateful for pain.

Heartbreak.

My breath.

And Joy.

Grateful to be alive.

I will smile.

I will laugh.

I will dance.

For life is impermanent.

Thank you life.

Thank you impermanence.

Thank you.

Innocent Living Beings.

By just being alive I will cause suffering in the world.

But I strive to negate as much as I can.

I vow to look at all living beings with compassion.

I vow to look at the suffering I cause in the world.

I vow to take action to alleviate suffering in all living beings.

Rape, torture, and death.

I see a tear go down a mother cows cheek.

I hear the last squeal of a suffering pig.

How we call ourselves peaceful while supporting such violence?

Blinded by industry lies.

Cold with apathy.

Myths.

Outdated traditions.

Wake up to compassion.

Wake up to peace.

Wake up to 2018.

A time of abundance.

A time where we don’t need animal products to survive.

There is another way.

A way of peace.

A way of compassion.

A way of love.

Will you join me?
