Environmental Industrial Concept: "Maritime Recycling Ships Reclaiming Human Garbage in the World Ocean Gyre's"


Hello All,

If global warming wasn't enough of a threat to humanity whether it was caused by humanity or not. Here is a Double Whammy threatening the human consumption of seafood globally as the least of our concern. There's the environmental cascade of such an event of unintended consequences for something we did clearly cause. Not it being so opaque as global warming there's a Global Oceanic Catastrophe. Our planet dare I say our mother Earth has five oceanic tidal vortexes globally called Gyre's. These 5 gyre's have several beneficial environmental causes to help regulate the temperature of the planet, besides being instrumental in regulating global ocean currents.



What's happened I suppose since the late 19th-century industrial revolution up until modern times now in the early 21st century. On a massive scale, we've treated the ocean like a massive sewer system. Especially during the last 50 years or so each of the world's oceanic gyre's have become a partially floating landfill. Albeit only about 10% of the human garbage is floating on the ocean surface. The bulk of the 90% has sunk into those often deep trench canyons on the sea floor. What's alarming about this now than say a few decades ago is the sheer size of all these: plastics, metals, styrofoams, rubber / latex, etc.. Often it's called the Oceanic Hairball in each of these five global gyre's. The greatest of these is the North Pacific Gyre otherwise known as the Great Pacific Garbage Patch. Made mostly famous by that cargo container of rubber ducky's being washed overboard during a pacific storm. Where via satellite oceanic researchers tracked the tidal pattern of the rubber ducky's in the North Pacific Gyre. To learn more about it since it became an opportunistic chance to use this freak occurrence to study the tidal vortex patterns.

Well now this same North Pacific Gyre oceanic patch has become the infamous toilet for humanity. This eyesore probably seen from space by satellite now. Like any toilet has become backed up its only a matter of decades before it threatens humanity directly. It's no longer a question of If, but When?

A video reported by the DW: European Journal from June 4th, 2014 (link no longer available online) of this year regarding the North Atlantic Gyre (aka the Gulf Stream) off the coast of the Netherlands. Already according to Deutsche Welle (DW) is reporting in that video segment that half of the North Atlantic Grye whales and seals are ingesting plastics. In the North Pacific Gyre the jellyfish, fish, seabirds and even muscles attaching themselves to degradable plastics have been spotted. I suppose not until we're affected directly will we as the species that caused this fiasco will fix it. Until that time expect to see from everything in these gyre's from the smaller fish up to giant whales start to have a massive die off. Fisherman won't be the only one's complaining when fishing stocks being contaminated with Microplastics. Microplastics are those tiny fragments of degradable plastics that flake off our trash over time. Ending up in our sea birds and sea life as a choking hazard. Wait until the first generation of people globally start choking on their lunch or dinner. Here's hoping the fish processing plants as food manufacturers weed out the bulk of these contaminated fishery stocks. Although I am painting a gloomy picture that will probably occur in the next 50 years or so at the rate we're dumping trash into the world oceans.

There's an organization called "Project Kaisei" based out of San Fransisco, California.  The word "Kaisei" in Japanese means ocean planet. This vanguard of a research organization has sent 2 research expeditions to the "Great Pacific Garbage Patch" since 2008. On their splash homepage automatically plays a full screen 9 minute or so video showcasing the scale of the problem. Please Watch It.

Project Kaisei (Video Link)

Now that you're starting to get a glimpse at the scale of this dilemma I'm attempting to describe to you. Here as my own talent goes is my own original concept in beginning the discussion in order how to tackle it from an industrial scale. This Oceanic Hairball where there should be now 5 globally in each oceanic gyre. Is from an Industry side for manufacturers a potential Goldmine of Profit. Yes, I didn't stutter nor I'm I a sell out in not caring for our beloved Mother Earth. For the gargantuan industrial clean up needed of our world oceans, there is a silver lining. These resources as our former garbage was once consumer and industrial goods. They can be fully Recycled. Meaning since this trash is floating in International waters there is no one nation to pay for mining rights or recycling rights of these resources on an industrial scale.

The most important issue is here not to disrupt the aquatic eco-system that is mostly unaffected by all this trash in the surrounding regions. Since already a large swath of sea creatures that are caught up in this Oceanic Hairball is dead whether they know it or not. Better to consider such a region an oceanic quarantine zone where any sea creatures contaminated by human garbage. Unfortunately, can not be rescued much like the British Petroleum BP disaster of 2010 in the Gulf of Mexico. The oil-covered sea birds along 100% of the gulf coast areas of Louisiana, Missouri, Alabama, and Florida were not systematically rescued. (It was only smaller environmental groups that gave a dam and attempted to save the oil tared wildlife) It wasn't completely humanly possible, thus the same conundrum will effect environmentalists when big industry starts to mine or recycle the trash in these ocean gyre's.



What I'm proposing for big maritime industry to do is one of two things at first. The first experimental class of oceanographic seafaring class of vessel recyclers. Can either be constructed from scratch at a ship building facility as the very first designed generation class of vessel. Or the cheaper of the two are retrofitted existing oil tankers with massive internal hold tanks. Perhaps oil tankers that are nearing the end of their lifespan in service. That are capable of passing through the Panama and Suez canals respectively as a global seafaring vessel.

The type of retrofit I'm proposing in design is as follows as pictured above from the center exterior hull on either side of the vessel. Have retractable hull access points circular in shape where industrial vacuum hose suckers deploy. Something similar to what marine archaeologists use when excavating the seafloor for wrecks. Where the content hosed up via those vacuums is sifted on board the research ship for selective archeological treatment. Basically do the same but on steroids where as this retrofitted oil tanker vessel sucks up the oceanic hairball. Via an internal conveyor belt system it starts to place in each oil tank hull storage all this recycled material and/or misc trash and containmented sea life. Once such a phase of siphoning the ocean surface of this 10% of human low hanging trash is scooped up. The next phase of the ships operation kicks into gear. The internal tracks of conveyor belts are rerouted like a locomotive train switching tracks within the ships internal industrial architecture.

This is where the rerouted trash is placed a new onto the internal conveyor belts. Going into an industrial processing facility for these reclaimed recyclable goods. There will be three recycled processes ongoing one is the process called "Thermal Depolymerization". Which is a fancy word for gleaning back the petroleum goods such as various oil grades that went into creating all these plastic types originally. According to an article from the website called "Fast Company" in September 1st, 2011. A company called "Greenstar Recycling and Vadxx Energy" will be building a state of the art facility in Arkon, Ohio that is projected in 2012 to reclaim 80,000 barrels of petroleum from thermal depolymerization. (As of Feb. 2013 "Waste Management Inc." purchased "Greenstar Recycling" for $220 Million)

Wikipedia: Thermal Depolymerization (Link)

Fast Company: Converting Plastic Back To The Oil It Came From  (Link)

Go figure a retrofitted Oil Tanker vessel as the first generation maritime recycler. Becoming a petroleum processing reclamation plant from discarded plastics. The other recycling process is similar to the one above but where the plastics are sorted into grades by the seafaring workers. (Yes, its grueling work with hazards of getting sliced easily by sharp edges from the trash) To place the sorted plastics into a recycling plant to reclaim them for future industrial manufacturers. A process called "Re / De - Polymerization" not unlike the one stated above. Do note the bulk of the Discarded Fishing Nets Made of Nylon can be recycled as well. Since all this lost fishing nets causes a tragic dilemma called "Ghost Fishing". Where fish continue to be caught and die from these drifting under sea nets that have been cut off by fishing vessels.

The Maritime Recycler vessel as a class of ships besides dividing the plastics for petroleum reclamation. And recycling the other assorted plastics for future Industrial manufacturer usage. Will also have on board a metal furnace to reclaim all the assorted metals. The Oil Tanker will lastly have an incinerator plant where any miscellaneous trash and the containmented sea creatures will be cremated. The power generation plant of this former oil tanker now maritime recycler class of ships. Can generate power to a limited degree from the incinerator plant as well. Although not to contribute to global warming from the emissions of such an incinerator plant smoke stacks on the ship. Every ship will utilize a process of algae scrubbers as a pollution control methodology in its emissions.

Here's a link to website called "Phys.org" on an article dated March 14th, 2012 on how algae can be a bio fuel and a source of pollution control. Where of course algae is plentiful in the world oceans although this will be a specially treated species of algae. That will be utilized for such a pollution control process.

Phys.org "Algae Species Explored Biofuel Source" (Link)

Once all the plastics and metals are recycled including reclaimed petroleum as the output by product. Just like the internal hull conveyor belt track system in sourced these raw resources. The same dynamic will be at play in reverse order where the reclaimed materials will be organized according to type within the very same storage hulls that once contained the raw resources. Once the Maritime Recycler is filled to the gills (pun intended) of industrial grade materials for manufacturers. The home office will look for industrial buyers at a global port of call. Where the vessel will deliver directly to their port of choice to unload these recycled industrial goods. Thus heading back to its native port of call to swap out for a new fresh crew and supplies for the next voyage to reclaim the trash in the ocean gyre's.

That's what I foresee as a potential reality taking perhaps the next 50 years to clear up the ocean surface of every of the five ocean gyre's. With this industrial concentrated effort to recycle all these discarded resources like mining a surface landfill for recycled content. However there's still the other 90% of human garbage that has sunk to perhaps the ocean sea floor. That has to be reclaimed somehow perhaps in the late 21st to early 22nd century. Maybe with a new class of submarines to similarly vacuuming up these under the sea floor landfills. Where the stored raw resources are taken to an ocean surface rig platform that has the necessary recycling processing facility. Then the refined resources can be off loaded onto cargo ships delivered to manufacturers at their sea port of choosing.

This is my crystal ball into what I can foresee as a potential reality in mining or reclaiming those under the sea discarded trash. Nonetheless expect to see a flotilla of maritime recyclers globally. After the first generation of retrofitted Oil Tankers have proven the concept thoroughly as the 1st generation of Maritime Recyclers. Than the industrial titans of ship builders will go directly for this new class of ship vessel. To being built from scratch for such an industrial operation in each of the globes ocean gyre's.

"Jewels of Truth" Reading From "A Soul Odyssey Within, Volume 1"

Hello All,

It's the middle of the week already and with that occurrence I wanted to mix things up a wee bit. Instead of one statement shared from either of my published books available at any major online book seller. (Links to purchase to the right hand column. End of shameless plug)

I wanted to include a little diddy of three such spiritual wisdom statements all on the topic of God. They're short with each delving into the infinite aspect of the Creator. Do remember this is the first Volume of my work where I focused on shorter statements. Rather than my longer versions you my readers have come to expect from me today.

Enjoy as always. Namaste
-----------------------------------

God: 

God, your love is the substance in my heart and mind. Your law is the essence encoded in my soul. ---Ivan Pozo-Illas / Atrayo.


Lean on God and he leans on you fulfilling his love on Earth. ---Ivan Pozo-Illas / Atrayo.


Our desires and needs or wants in themselves will never be truly fulfilled in this world. For this world is imperfect due to duality, but God who is perfect all things can be found, which will have no end to them. ---Ivan Pozo-Illas / Atrayo.

Jewels of Truth Statements & Favorite Quotes of the Month

Hello All,

Summer is finally here and as of yesterday the summer solstice was experienced as the first day of the season. Here in the States public schools for minors is out of session until summer school semester. For children to catch up on their grades or to leap ahead in their grade point average. Much like I mentioned on the Father's Day entry I'm not a parent in this lifetime. 

However I was always the kid going to summer school just to catch up in my grades. I always maintained a B grade average as a student with rare A- making it to the dean's list. Mathematics and the sciences I struggled and to this day I only learned math up to pre-algerbra. History and social studies I always excelled greatly full of intrigue for such topics.

Today's trio of "Jewel's of Truth" spiritual wisdom statements are on the topics of: Excellence, Approval, and Faith. In the series of #1042-1044 written in late June in the year 2010. Enjoy them as I do in sharing these inspirations my spirit guides enjoy sharing with me.

-------------------------------------

Excellence:

1042) Nothing in this life as a man, woman, or child will ever by perfect. It may appear just right, but perfection is only for the spiritual in nature belonging to God himself. Release the need always to be perfect in living your lives for it is an ego trick of the mind as a fool's errand. We are more than the simple dog chasing its own tail. In pursuing a higher standard I dare not stipulate to settle for less if you are capable of better. The breath of life is filled with promise always giving 100% of its own essence. So meet it half way in Excellence in joining your promise to that of the greatest expression of your own life long lessons.

Be still and focus only upon what you can accomplish today. For the tasks of tomorrow do not belong here right now. At least not until you have met the per-requisite in lining up your ducks in a row. Worry not for that alone drains you of the strength and awareness to carry out your tasks in a sensible manner. Be concerned, but delegate that to the back of your mind only to leave your duties up and center before you. Worry will only zap you of a much deserved enthusiasm when it naturally occurs throughout your days.

Keep an outlook for the divine this will allow the sublime holy one to recognize your interest in the majestic in life. This will bind you up in kinship to all that is of grace allowing you to share your struggles with God in earnest. Such a partnership may be uneven, but that too is alright for it is the father's good pleasure as our maker to be engaged at all levels of our life with our willing permission. In centering yourselves in excellence you will rise above many others needing to repeat their work due to faulty errors. This will draw positive distinction upon you to those that matter as the influence and authority makers in life. The handiwork of those committed to excellence is often the fore runner of virtue and conviction of purpose in many other outlets in life. Amen. ---Ivan Pozo-Illas / Atrayo.


Approval:

1043)  When one seeks the acceptance of another person outside of your own dignity. You may very well have set yourself up for failure unless the other person is truly compassionate with you. Which only occurs in the minority of cases. A demanding parent as a disciplinarian is more a dysfunctional tyrant than they may ever admit to or realize within any lifetime. An innocent child's trust and respect is only a parent's or caregivers to lose if the adult continues unproductive behavior if not outright dysfunctional ones.

Men and woman as they mature that continue to seek validation of their own internal worthiness outside their persons. Speaks louder to personal insecurity than any other respective truth. As an individual your worthiness stems from the divine within your very being. Or the honorable inherit in all of us until we are taught to fear and hate ourselves or others in life. Our best outlook is dependent on where we prime our focus in life be it God or some other life sustaining philosophical discourse. Our discriminatory thoughts often reflect a bias that is punitive against our self-esteem. The so-called inner critic is the metaphorical devil on our shoulder trashing us every chance we empower it to do so.

Instead re-direct your focus to what is divine in that silent place where no person can ever reach. The inner sacred temple of the heart or mind as the very altar of your own essence otherwise known as your "Highest Self". This is hallowed ground where everything about you is authentic and without taint of this chaotic world. All that you hold dear as unconditional love and every treasure that you have bound on Earth is also bound in Heaven. This is the abode of the sincere intuition and where angels lay awaiting your permission for them to aid you at every sensible turn in life. This is the place between moments where time is just a figment and only the presence of God is real. Through honesty and humility you find the prism of your divine essence intact awaiting your realization and acceptance. The limitations of humanity have no bearing here just the gratitude that you have valued your self-worth greater than the worldly white noise. Telling you incessantly how to think and live for a transitory happiness that only leaves you with a gritty remorse.

The opportunity is yours to realize your authentic self made in the Image and Likeness of God. Not as the world sees you nor how those who would point out your defects as a person just so to weaken your mind and heart. Here the Great Divine sees your limitations as stepping stones for personal growth. Not to define you, but to release you from the burden that such traits are a work in progress, that is all. Allow your heart to feel nurtured from within your own sacred being that is within your inner temple of the soul. Whatever you need is offered 100% always by God. Just be willing to have an open mind and heart to receive it with gratitude at the proper interval and not before. By loving yourselves spiritually you nurture that inner child that always is craving attention. This is the fountain of youth if not life in order to always fill your spirits to overflowing with self-acceptance and self-approval. Amen. ---Ivan Pozo-Illas / Atrayo.


Faith:

1044)  All of Creation is in song with the smile of God(dess) that is brought forth from the Alpha to the Omega. For our combined recollection of such a Divine Will provides for us the ability to experience Faith in every turn of our lives. As we remember we light ourselves up as examples of the unconditional love that is available to be experienced by the faithful. We are the most blessed irrespective of our chosen religion or spiritual tradition in life. A faith or any faith in combination with others is but a mere vehicle taking us on the journey to live side by side with the divine presence of God. Our personal tribulations are kindling to be added as fuel to help mold our essence. In order that we may overcome our weakness in order to transform them into our strength in service to each other eternally so. 

When in our shortcomings we forget the presence of God in our divine midst. We cheat ourselves of the glory of redemption that is at hand for the combined good of this reality. Our focus becomes skewed, our senses warped, and thus fear has a greater influence on us than our love of life itself. Despair, guilt, and shame become our jailer's unless we choose to take a step back and remember we have the key to our own liberty in our faith with God. With the Holy Spirit as our spiritual adviser can we claim our innocence in order to start over where before we stumbled. This is the way out of a place of prejudice against ourselves in order to make seen at least only to us the substance of our belief if not our love in and with God(dess).

All we need do is find within ourselves the courage to enlist whomever inspires us in Heaven. Be it the ascended masters of: Jesus the Christ, Mother Mary, Mohammad, Moses, Buddha, Krishna, and so forth. These are just some of our spiritual siblings by means of the Holy Spirit of God. As we live by faith let us not trump our brother or sister's spiritual conviction as less than. To do so makes a mockery of our own divinity. Only with humility can we find the wisdom together to walk in peace and forgiveness when we offend each other by mistake or on purpose. This will become the sacred path to awaken gratitude for our faith when we live by the exemplar fashion of our forefathers. Trusting their good counsel in order we may experience God in every era humanity has with him on this Earth and beyond. Amen. ---Ivan Pozo-Illas / Atrayo.

-----------------------------------------------

When we do the best we can, we never know what miracle is wrought in our life, or in the life of another. ---Helen Keller.

The doors of the heart open inwards. ---Louise Hay. "2014 Hay House World Summit" (Interview by Robert Holden)

To get wisdom is to love oneself; to keep understanding is to prosper. ---Proverbs 19:8

God is love, and those who abide in love abide in God, and God abides in them. ---1 John 4:16

Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not rely on your own insight. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths. ---Proverbs 3:5-6

"Jewels of Truth" Reading From "The Wayfarer of the Soul, Volume 2"

Hello All,

Today's excerpt is also from Volume 2 of the "Jewels of Truth" series on spiritual wisdom. The topic explores the responsible and caring use of comedy by means of laughter as the object of our attention. How to keep it mostly in good taste, versus bad directly at a person or perhaps an ethnic group.

Enjoy as always.

--------------------------------

Laughter:

The best medicine of the heart and mind is that of a sincere humor that always welcomes laughter in abundance. Laughing at the silly events that transpire in life aids us in gaining an understanding of humility within us. It is a grace best performed in respect of others, but still with a gleeful demeanor that promotes delight. Laughter is best enjoyed amongst friends where rivalry can be enjoyed and often laughed at in earnest. Although any humor at someones expense may be comedic, but is always by nature in poor taste. Especially if it is cruel in nature and not wanton attention that does nothing to promote goodwill. Be kind, but have fun in your humor by offering it from a place of sincere love and not anger. Amen.                                                          ---Ivan Pozo-Illas / Atrayo.

"Jewels of Truth" Reading From "The Wayfarer of the Soul, Volume 2"

Hello All,

A festive "Happy Father's Day" to every man that has known the joys and at times the pain in the ass for being a father with children. For myself its a mixed blessing since I'm not a father in this life. At times I'm more the aloof man child myself with God in sacred partnership. I will most likely never know the joys of being a father so relish it those of whom that are good parents. Especially if you have little ones and you look away they would've grown up so quickly. Don't miss out, I say.

Today's reading from my 2nd Volume of the "Jewels of Truth" series is on the topic of the "Great Mystery". As it relates to life and most likely one can glean it to mean parenting to a limited degree. At least our celestial parent being father / mother God nurturing life itself. Go celebrate today this holiday and may you all include your sons and daughters in cherishing them. Even if they resemble you more than you would've liked. :o)

God Bless.

---------------------------------------------

Great Mystery:

To those who seek the meaning of life with all its wonders and secrets. The seeking isn't in the destination nor in the journey. It is truly in the meaning it is prescribed to in one's own heart. If one truly sought the totality that life is, than one is seeking God in his infinite expressions. The intention of the sacred is what will bind you to awakening the Divine within. Thus the "Book of Life" will no longer read as gibberish to one who is devout filled with the "Spirit of God". Amen. ---Ivan Pozo-Illas / Atrayo.

"Jewels of Truth" Statement: "Awaken to The Ancient One Once More"

Hello All,

I hope the weather is hospitable where your at in the world at large. Here in south west Florida we're entering the rainy season with frequent thunderstorms. Since the State of Florida is the capital of lighting strikes across our country.

Life may seem to occur with random thunder strikes into our personal lives. Often these strikes of nature itself clash with our goodwill and sense of well being. How we respond will not only heal the circumstance but in many ways define us as human beings. We can panic and throw up our hands by wailing woe is me! Or we can have a moment of grief privately and than wipe away the tears by carrying onward. Everyone lives their lives at their own pace, especially as it concerns your own personal lives. Forcing yourself to live by someone's own standards other than your own is begging for heartache if not misery.

Today's "Jewels of Truth" spiritual wisdom statement was written in late March of this year. On the topic to Awaken to your own divine potential. How such a union with God is compromised in a sentiment of a co-mingling of his supreme essence with that of our own. To live in faith in such an awakening where we can begin anew our immortal progress from our last reincarnation. This statement is #1693 in the series.

Enjoy.

---------------------------------

Awaken

1693)  My soul stirs for thee my dearest God(dess). I shall seek only your glory plainly so and not my own in living a well seasoned life. All of our souls stir for thee my God for we know not why? We are here to give witness before your supreme testimony of the marvels of Creation. We take our place alongside you in the manifested Heavens according to the needs our spiritual heritage calls for in truthful simplicity. Our essence takes form all around us in unity to your power oh God. We are not ready unless we choose to awaken from the script of our self induced mortal lives. Until then we languish recognizing our feeble gestures in becoming giants in our own lifetimes. We fail and we sometimes succeed only for a generation or two of a mortals birth.

By our human conditional free will can we fathom our spiritual unconditional free will by your decree dear God(dess). As we stir as mortals in a life without complete expression of your glory. We cry out to the world for meaning and purpose to what is our truth alone. Not until we welcome by self-discovery within our young minds and hearts. Can we begin our generous eternal sojourn anew as immortal souls. To continue where we have left off in Heaven as spirits made in your likeness and beauty.

We welcome this opportunity to love anew, to serve each other anew, to grow our well meaning being anew, and the greatest of these is to love you deeply our God in your majestic peace. We recall our beloved home is within your perfect essence wherever it resides in Creation. Amen. ---Ivan Pozo-Illas / Atrayo.

"Jewels of Truth" Reading From "A Soul Odyssey Within, Volume 1"

Hello All,

I hope your all well and keeping life meaningful in all the ways that give each of you joy. Even in the ordinary tasks of living as a person bring your best. A best that does not define you, but one where you put the truth of your sacred self as real to you. No matter it doesn't fully translate to another, as long as you find God or your Highest Truth in such an exchange you offer in Life.

Speaking of life here is an excerpt from Volume 1 on the topic of the "Holy Spirit".

Enjoy.

----------------------------------

Holy Spirit:

The ultimate way to live your life is to just be an unconditional expression of love. Doing so you will begin to notice the hand of the "Holy Spirit" putting things into place for you, your loved ones, and strangers alike. This is the perfection of Spirit, since ego can not ever attain perfection due to its imbalanced nature of being. ---Ivan Pozo-Illas / Atrayo.

"Jewels of Truth" Statement: "A Righteous Forgiveness Like No Other"

Hello All,

It almost seemed I wasn't going to post this week, not so. The posting entries schedule usually works out more so for my International readers since I'm a night owl at heart. I work best in the late evening to early morning hours in my timezone which is EST (eastern standard time) here in Florida.

Today's "Jewels of Truth" spiritual wisdom statement is numbered #1734 in the series written in late May of this year. It's on the topic of Forgiveness. A forgiveness that explains its intent somewhat better than in the Christian New Testament in the "Book of Luke" chapter 6 verse 27-29. Albeit I have 2 longhand pages to describe the sentiment in sheer practice.

Right now I'm also struggling with forgiveness of self. I'm entering my middle age as a person and have become contemplative of some of my assorted issues of shame and guilt as a man. Self-Forgiveness offered up with compassion without personal recriminations is how to best serve it up to oneself. The rest belongs to the "Holy Spirit" within us all. With thankful tears of relief and a humble gratitude in living kindly so.

So enjoy today's statement on Forgiveness and remember to love without conditions. Be it the essence of self-worth and of loving your neighbor as yourself. For the very essence of our souls is the Light of God as Love itself. To exchange love is to share God with all manner of life.

-------------------------------

Forgiveness:

1734)  To turn the other cheek as it states in the holy "Book of Luke" chapter 6 verse 27-29 in the Christian New Testament. Does not mean to literally allow yourselves to be harmed in physical abuse from another person. This metaphor means to turn the other spiritual cheek with an atonement of forgiveness. To turn any harm done unto you or by you personally unto another person or creature. With the power of God's love acted through a sacred forgiveness. Never should a heart despair from want from the very relief of a well intentioned mercy known as forgiveness itself. As you offer mercy to another or compassion to your own being. Know full and well that you are acting in accord to the supreme "Will of God".

As "Jesus the Christ" proclaims it is my "Father's Good Pleasure to Give You the Kingdom of God". (Luke 12:32) Means nothing more but to be of a heavenly nature on an unconditional basis. Do not begrudge your neighbor of his or her own good by withdrawing your willful forgiveness. Live in kindness as you do unto others it is done unto you according to your own personal standards. Pay no mind to your fellow brother or sister in their own bad behavior. Unless it stalls your own grace from developing in life. We can rescue only the closest ones within our reach and only by their own self-directed permission. To forgive doesn't mean to toss out the hard won lesson they taught you by means of your hardship. It means to surrender unconditionally the pain only to replace it with God's healing Love for You. That is all truly I say you who keep the "Word of God" in your heart and upon your faithful minds.

Act with conviction in such a blessed truth and your love of life will always be complete. Be true with humility for this meekness with forgiveness affords you always a peace of mind. Yes, to forgive means to surrender your grievances no matter if you hold the high ground or not. It signifies a soul willing to change for the better in worship to God and the Holy Compassionate Truth. Amen. ---Ivan Pozo-Illas / Atrayo.
