time/eternity:
-------------------------
May 07, 2009 - scottmartinlocke

Well another day has come and gone; time passes so quickly. Another week has passed but not passed me by without recognition. Work k is slow; they sent us home again after lunch. This economy thing is starting to hurt. I recognize my own pain in everyone under the conditions we are in. I think and re-think but cannot come to any conclusions except our democracy and capitalism is geared for the rich and us common folk all feel the pain. I’ve went through the unemployment thing. Therefore, I know the compassion I have for everyone is real. In addition, the one on the corner with a sign that says need help really does. The revolution is coming. We cannot be kept down like this for long. The rich are cutting us out like a piece of apple pie. America isn't supposed to be like this. Where have all the good times gone? Therefore, we struggle to survive and it keeps getting harder. Can’t do without the pay because the bills keep on coming. However, the pay keeps getting smaller. Who can afford to save? We already do without and they want us to do without more. Renounce what we have. When it's gone, you have nothing to say good-bye to. In addition, the preacher says everything will be all right. However, it doesn't seem possible; but providence will make a way. Not more than we can bear. However, how much is enough? So we keep on trucken, listening to marshal tucker, the almond brothers and the doobies; Leonard skynard and feel the blues crusin down the highway. But it's the low way we go grace slick and Janis Joplin Dylan and Hendrix. Where have all the good times gone? it's just a memory and time, time keeps movin on; stop sometimes and look around, you might have missed something important.


Short stories and thoughts

immediate reality
-------------------------
June 01, 2009 - scottmartinlocke

Everything starts within our mind. The truth of external reality is known to us from
deep within. Through the physical
reality outside our mind really exists, and would exist without us; it is our knowing it
that makes us conscious of it and
our intelligent ability to interpret it comes with our consciousness. Consciousness that
does not set out from its own
inner life does not start from thought; it combines the thought of the Great Spirit with
its own from its immediate
presence in reality and recognizes itself within it and still keeps its individuality. The
moment of immediate existence
is present in the content of the notion, and present in such a way that it realizes its
immediate reality within a greater
reality, above nature, but still part of nature. It is neither set up as something thought
or imaginatively represented nor
of something produced but is a part of our real and immediate experience of our existence. The Divine becomes part of our own being once realized and accepted we evolve in our true nature as spiritual intelligent beings



Short stories and thoughts
life goes on don't ya' know
-------------------------
June 06, 2009 - scottmartinlocke

Seemingly, it's all just a matter of attitude; but our economic conditions add a special touch to the living that we experience. Yea' life may seem rough, but no one said it would be easy. I took a 12,000 cut in pay and had to immediately change my lifestyle.
yea' at least I’m working.
only a 4-day week and 3-day weekends, but life is a trade-off. we give and receive. we earn and spend. oh' the Lord is my Sheppard I shall not want. it's hard to renounce but we must. welcome to tomorrow. super - inflation and the cost
of living. and then there is the
cost of dyeing- but we don't have to worry about that cause we're not going to be here.
perhaps there is a spiritual cost,
but we have to deal with that while we are alive in this world. life goes on. who takes
notice? who cares? dealing with the present is hard enough , and having to make plans for our future is
ridiculous because nothing is
really determined except for our ageing. things get old and we just get older. Perhaps
it's the way we interpret and
look at the world. taking chances, better than risks. not much any more to lose and
everything to gain. so we life the best we can with what we got. making due and paying our dues. what else is there? an afterlife is only a second thought to the immediate present


short stories and thoughts
Realization of a Higher Power
-------------------------
June 07, 2009 - scottmartinlocke

in all actuality there must be a higher power making consciousness the powerful tool that is with our intelligent thinking abilities. this consciousness separates us
from the animal world.
With our intelligence, we can realize the Divinity within our Human form. it's in our mind that we make the connection. it's in our brain that our thinking
and thoughts come alive.
with our intelligence, we come to conclusions and make judgments. we offer up our opinions to dialogue and debate. our consciousness of yourself is just
as real as our consciousness of

our spirit and soul. though these ideas may be abstract it is in our mind that we
can determine their worth and value.
civilization and culture have this nature in common. we all believe in something
even if it is in nothing that nothing is
a great force in our life and has the power of something though we know not
what it is. The Absolute Being existing as a concrete actual self-consciousness seems to
descend from its eternal pure simplicity;
but in fact, it has, in doing so attained for the first time its highest nature, its
supreme reach for being. By doing so,
and connecting with humanity, it has found its own self-fulfillment. In pure thought
the spirit has become not only an
act of cognition; but realized its own potential in human consciousness. T he actual consummation of this notion brings the Divine Spirit into unity with the
Human spirit; probably part of its own
plan that humans can know it and it can know humans in a reciprocal and mutual relationship. when we pray , and all of us do at times,
we expect someone or something to
hear and respond. this is part of the character of the human spirit that has hope in
the Divine, a higher power to
intercede for us in our human joy and pain


short stories and thoughts
living a wonderful life
-------------------------
August 07, 2009 - scottmartinlocke

what a good thing it is that hope lives on deep in our heart where we are close to God what a good thing it is to find ourselves singin g when the music starts what a good thing it is when our conscience is clear from wrong doing and regret what a very good thing it is that the Creator added a dash of humor just to both of our amusement how wonderful it is when love comes into our life. even the pain is a feeling we can't do without else how would we know real happiness>>?



short stories and thoughts
epiphany
-------------------------
August 13, 2009 - scottmartinlocke

it's a grand word. Epiphany is Humanity; man, woman and children have alone the ability to think and realize when they learn something. Philosophy is now seen as a practical academic discipline. The charactacterure of those thoughtful words bring us far around the corner from the ivory towers that detach us from the problems of real life. There is no real instruction book that goes along with philosophy; we kind a make up the rules as we go. but rules there are and laws, and principles that govern our thinking. It was and is the primary concern of these writing compositions to pick out precisely those questions that needed answering and more explanation; the best I could. It seems to be one of those never-ending stories that always have conclusions. Sometimes we get carried away with a thought by the sheer delight of hearing our own brains turn over our own thoughts to consider them from all perspectives; but the one we miss is
the most important. Often enough we find new clarity and understanding, within our own reason, and come to the term Epiphany. The paradigm of life creates the great enigma, which consumes the philosopher’s attention and fills his or her minds with a tapestry of random and spontaneous, as well as deliberate power of thinking. one thing for sure- the mind is an aweful mysterious place and for those lost in their own world. they had better get a life


short stories and thoughts
on my own
-------------------------
September 10, 2009 - scottmartinlocke

well sometimes, we have to stand up for ourselves. it all happened January 16/2009 after 15 and a half years my manager came up to me and said I wasn't needed any more due to reduction in staff.
I collected unemployment until march 26 I just got tired of unemployment. I went back to my ole employer and
had an interview. the executive brought me out into the factory. we met with the manager , an ole friend, and we
talked about employment. he said no. not now, when I got home, I got a call to come to work. it lasted 5 and half months. putting up with the son of the owner. I was placed in various positions before landing
on the receiving side of a computer router boring machine. well everyone knows a human can't keep up with
a machine. once you interact with it, you become an extension of the machine. like the movie' the matrix.' so after five and a half months I said I quit. he asked why and I said “because I can" so I went back to the local ESC office and re-opened my compensation package. life goes on and I’m back in the search. I will meet the challenge and the experience of change is a story itself. been there, done that, lol thanks for your time again; just another amusing composition.

short stories and thoughts
reality
-------------------------
September 22, 2009 - scottmartinlocke

The Renaissance crystallized a new out-look on life and clanged the human mind to make sense out of its bewildering world. This new era of thought had a mighty and revolutionary generative idea: the dichotomy of all reality into inner experience and outer world. We take for granted the immediacy of an internal experience from the external world. We've determined the difference between what comes from the mind and what comes to the mind. Both realities exist simultaneously forming a congruent and coherent consciousness we can accept and come to terms with. The mind is always fertile, though sometimes dormant, but it is ever creating and discarding ideas from considering their importance. The rise of technology is the best possible proof that the basic concepts of physical science is essentially sound, but strangely enough the so-called mental sciences have gained very little from the great adventure of the human race.



Life: An Adventure in Learning
------------------------------
May 09, 2008 by scottmartinlocke
The learning process in humans is a process one must have an aptitude for. We learn to navigate our way around by exploring and discovering in our own Adventure in Learning. I wrote a book about it. preview it at http://stores.lulu.com/elemental and read some of my philosophy at http://scott-locke.blogspot.com. and find writings both archived and recent compositions with active links that connect you to my thoughts. visit and explore me, discover and explore “http://sites.google.com/site/elementalwriting.” all the hyper-links work to my compositions.as the minute hand of the clock passes the hour hand once more, we discover our own genius. live your life the best you can. excel at your talent. discover and explore your potential. keep with it. writing is the most expressive and powerful way to communicate through the language of thought inside our intelligent mind awaiting its release. of all the media. a word is worth a hundred thoughts and a picture image a thousand. and music is worth a million
thoughts. creativity is a gift. use it wisely.


An Aptitude for recognizing our Potential
------------------------------
May 14,2008 by scottmartinlocke
we all have some special talent. our capabilities and potential are yet to be realized. once we come upon our gift then our genius surfaces and we can share our knowledge and wisdom with others. this internet networking is the ways and means for communicating our abilities and specialties in the media arts and in literature. All of us here at the IMPNOW site those of us who are creative are on the way to greater things. that's why we were led here. Every one of us who are creative in our expression have as a reason though we may not recognize it now, but sometime in the future all of us will yield to the reason we communicate and pass knowledge to one another in the written word and other media, that's the title of my new book.
Perhaps after I finish production of “The Basis of Elemental Thoughts” my next book “We Pass Knowledge to One Another” will yield to yet still another title. who knows? The future is so unpredictable but the possibilities and our potential are infinite- perhaps “Writings and Compositions of Airborn Knight-Scott Martin Locke.”


people who think metaphysics is rational
------------------------------
May 11,2008 by scottmartinlocke
when exploring the known we arrive at understanding; but when exploring the unknown we question and doubt without certainty. The unknown is simply something that has been concealed and awaits revealing. This is where insight and revelation lead our intelligence to thought. Our human intelligent creativity is our greatest treasure. No license needed- whether spontaneous or well thought the unknown will
Always be greater than the known-use your imagination- that’s what it’s there for.
Learn to express yourself – it’s your own genius.


the fulfillment of life
------------------------------
May 15,2008 by scottmartinlocke
the first requirement of achieving a fulfilled life is finding a reasonable and rational way to keep your happiness. if you are happy and want to be happier, you have to redefine happiness. contentment plays an important role. there is more to thought than just thinking. there is more to reading than just words. the words provoke further thought and a new sense of the way we think. there is more to life than we know. there is more unknown than known. Just beyond infinity is the heavenly realm and it all is still in your mind; and a little cash never hurt anyone.

Life
------------------------------
May 24,2008 by scottmartinlocke
life is a grand experiment. now I don't know if we are the subject or object, but I do know something is going on here that most of us just don't understand. we are all caught up in events, opportunity, chance and things that are out of our control; but the things that are in our control are our own mindset and determination to realize the destiny we set for ourselves. life gets tough at times but we usually pull through. perhaps it's the spirit or perhaps it's just our realization that we have to get through the here and now to get to tomorrow. but when tomorrow comes, it's just another day and the same-ole stuff just keeps coming at us. perhaps it's karma you know what comes around goes around. Maybe we all ought to start thinking and acting better- perhaps there is more to life than we know. It may seem senseless but it is our duty to make sense of it- more than dollars and cents.


life is crazy
------------------------------
June 02,2008 by scottmartinlocke
the way things are going with all the ups and downs being rational takes some work. logic becomes the rescuer but the way things are there is no logic to it. there is no being reasonable either; life is all that you make it, but we are subjects to nature and to all the higher-ups on the ladder to success. even when money is tight, we find ways. Good thing too; without it we are nothing but human with the human element of surprise.



Give Life a second thought
------------------------------
June 07,2008 by scottmartinlocke
some say life has many colors and hues. it's true. life is not just black and white and gray. our mind says one thing and our feelings and emotions say another. life is not logical but we are supposed to make some sense of it. the possibility is there; it just takes a certain way of thinking. we are supposed to be optimistic, but intent, motivation and ambition take the lead. every day is another adventure in exploration, discovery and a free ride on the rollercoaster full of turns of opportunity, rolls of chance , and our wonder of what comes next. Dreams are good for distractions; but some dreams can be fulfilled if we excel and drive you with determination and persistent commanding of our will to achieve and succeed. we make of it what we can, but remember that we are responsible for more than our actions/ we are responsible for our thoughts..
