Beginnings...

What's in a name? People will come in and they will look to the top of this page, to the title and the little diddly I wrote beneath it, and they will scrunch their little faces and think "WTF?", because they do not have the grace to understand. Not the grace of God, but the dark stuff that lubricates backward logic like oil to a machine. There are only few gifted with this dark grace, and many who pretend. A gift, a curse, a club to verbally abuse, and a smokescreen to trick those hiding in their light. Paradise Lost, what an appropriate title, not just to this orifice of my mind, but to the world itself. The present world sees a paradise before them. They think their safe in the light, that joy runs rampant and there is no such thing as a bad day. What Paradise? Look around, there is nothing but death, disease, suicide, and discrimination in this world, and this is just within the shores of our own country. What light? The glow you think surrounds your life is self-generation, a product of a "fixed" mind. Joy and happiness? Their nothing but fleeting emotions to today's generation. There is no paradise to be had or found. Paradise is Lost.

And thus I shall name this blanket of my beliefs after this truth: Paradise Lost. Because it is not enough for me to know. Perhaps, though, through this you too will learn the truth. Perhaps not THE truth, but the truth that I have come to see, and it is a better truth than that spat in schools and churches, the forced doctrines and false facts. Better a truth than lies.

Welcome to my blog. Expect more of this to come. If you do not like it, if it burns your mind with it's blatant disrespect for today's ideals, if it disrespects your beliefs, then too bad. Don't read. This is the only warning I shall ever give. After this, read at your own risk.

Because the gloves are coming off.
