High discipline is crucial to excelling in all endeavors, and any relationship without commitments to excellence are doomed to travel from newness to drudgery to failure. As I think and write I am directing my intent towards a disturbing attitude aimed at school age children by politicians, school administrations, parents, and teachers that robs children of the natural impetus to excel. Parents don't intentionally do it on the most part but fear of the law, and a lack of understanding of natural law, and the spiritual significance of ancient relationships lull them into gradual acceptance of a sub-standard that retards the pace of their children's genius into the mercurial crawl of mediocrity.
Today is my father's birthday. As his first-born I have the distinction of witnessing processes of development my siblings are experiencing as parents from the perspective of a child. As the first-born child the learning process of my parent's parenting style took on new life in a time when America placed secondary value on colored lives with contempt. My father and others fought very hard against the track system, and over the years the track system was torn down, or so they thought. Daddy was struck in the early part of this century to learn, from me, that the track system has remained within the educational system. It has a different form but it produces the same students. Educators, administrators, and politicians are obvious, and deliberate in their efforts to resist changing the core structure of a system that devalues souls, minimizes genius, and disrespects the core tenets of the freedom of expression!
The salvation of children lives within their parents, and depends upon the skills of powerful people who are spiritually developed, and called to teach in this world, and the Elders charged with continuing the education of young life forces who live in the higher vibrations of existence. For, at least, thirty years children attuned to the mysterious lines between the terrestrial and the etheric qualities of other worlds are sliding through the birth canals of their mothers by the thousands. The education system is backward preferring to be ignorant of the phenomenon, and with bull headed determination uses force to shape these children into something they are not.
It was not the easy thing to develop my own children. This knowing was always present with me. Within my medicine were articles of power that feed us as ingrained, and dangerous attitudes from church tradition and school officials railed against the theme of power that conducted my parenting style. I wished, as a young father, the community were deeply involved in the process. My family was very much involved: my parents, siblings, ex-wife, and extended family members in other states. But that wasn't enough. Children are born into communities. Without community understanding of developmental processes, or community support for the initiations necessary to individual growth the missing ceremonies and rituals children need go missing. Without communities pushing for an education system that teaches all students not just the children who are rote memorizers we will get the same adults who vote against their best interests religiously election after election, and year after year! Our system of educating young minds produces a sub-standard mind that cannot grasp the global responsibilities of power, or see the long effects of action. Our system graduates tens of thousands of career criminals every year with minimum scholastic abilities. It is an art form our commitment to medium standards. It is an insult to high intelligence, the standard set within the Constitution and the birth canals that ushered all of us into the Earth plane. Now is the time to create, and develop something powerful out of the ashes of what was never meant to work for people. Today, not tomorrow.
