Premium Member Climate Prophets

What is a health optimizing adventure
appropriate for a co-empathic prophet
of ego/eco-therapeutic peace?
In this dark Advent time of climate degeneration,

When we feel more than just this solstice year
co-darkens to complete,
to tragically end,

When we feel risk
and need opportunities
to heal our entire exterior timelessly dark future,
to heal interior decomposing dusky thoughts with feeling minds
and dis-organically stressed bodies,
to heal climates of sickly expanding universal therapeutic needs
with some unitarian cooperative spices
and some chaotic climate spaces
terrorizing pro-organic persistent feelings;

What is a wealth optimizing Advent
appropriately co-acclimating with all nature/spirit prophecies
for ego/eco-therapeutic restoring justice Peace?
from ego-central
through eco-tribal cooperative Win/Win balance,

Advent co-presence
invites co-empathic listening,
responsive hoping,
active faithing,
everyday love, darkly,
sometimes starkly, enchanting.

The Atheist

He pipes out in pride and boasts of his creed   
crushing the spirit of those who believe 
he thinks he is right he has planted no seed  
except that of money and power, perceived  
The stars and the moon are trinkets of science 
no angels of cure no God to procure 
he lifts up his chin and puffs in defiance 
honey there's nothing out there, but manure; 
The sun and the wind the rain and the trees 
nothing out there can foretell,... its so lame 
abhorring the faithful that fall on their knees,  
he's a rift in God's nature, Oh ! what a shame 
That he can't see the beauty of "Faithing in Christ"
and he can't feel the power, of Faith, thinly sliced.
