The calling of the Clouds

This cloud looks like a man pointing to the sky, the sunlight coming through the one cloud on to his face is his hand on his chin, like he's thinking in wonder,Yet sees who's coming his way.The little cloud that's below him at the top of the palm trees, is doing exactly the same thing, like its his son, saying Dad look...Imagination is a beautiful thing, we create we destroy, the Mind is an extraordinary tool of power...

   I love our new Pope Francis he chose to live as a commoner, instead of wealth:— Pope takes classic Renault for spin, leaves security in the dust
   VATICAN CITY — When an Italian priest handed Pope Francis the keys to his classic 30hp Renault 4, the pope got behind the wheel and took off, leaving security squirming behind, knowing full well this would be just the beginning of a pope truly on the move. Even though he shouldn't be able to reach Ferrari-like speeds with a 300cc engine, it might be tough keeping up when he hits the hills.
   
   “The security personnel next to me were very concerned because they understood that from now on he would be tooling around the Vatican in my car,” the car donor, 69-year-old Father Renzo Zocca, told the Italian Catholic magazine, Famiglia Cristiana. But the priest told the police, not to worry, “I left some snow chains in the trunk. You never know!”
   
   The new addition to the papal fleet — a silver-white four-door 1984 Renault with 186,000 miles on the odometer — happened on Saturday, just a few hours before the Sept. 7 prayer vigil in St. Peter’s Square for peace.
   
   The pope didn’t get his new wheels on eBay. Father Zocca said he wrote the pope, saying he wanted to meet him, donate his car, and tell him about his ministry: living and working for 25 years in a run-down, working-class neighborhood in Verona — the northern Italian city made famous by Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet.
   
   Instead of feuding family rivalries, however, Father Zocca had to face off violent drug pushers who were destroying young people’s lives and leaving the priest death threats. Not even getting stabbed would stop the priest, who said, “I wanted to embody the (Second Vatican) Council in that parish in the outskirts, which has been the center of my life.”
   
   With both parents dead at 35 years old, Father Zocca raised his 14-year-old brother. He revitalized the community and built centers for the poor, disabled and the elderly. He and his brother lived in government housing, and with an apartment on the 9th-floor, “I would joke that I lived in the highest rectory in Italy.”
   
   Then on August 10 at 10:19 a.m., Father Zocca got a call on his cell from the pope. Pope Francis had gotten the priest’s letter and they spent half an hour talking about the priest’s work “in the peripheries,” as the pope has repeatedly called today’s priests to go. Father Zocca reiterated his offer that he had this white Renault in the garage that had been his faithful companion for decades as he drove all over Verona and Italy for his ministry.
   
   The pope was unsure, the priest said, and suggested the priest give it to the poor.
   
   “I answered that this car had already given much to the poor and now it had to go to the pope.” He told the magazine that he wanted to give the pope something that was a testimony to his experience and ministry of going into the outskirts “and what a better gift than my Renault 4?” he said.
   
   When the pope was sure Father Zocca had another car to use, the pope pulled out his appointment book, leafed through the pages and started listing the days and times he would be free in early September. With the appointment set for Sept. 7 at 3 p.m, Father Zocca had his mechanic, Stefano, give the car a tune-up, clean the spark plugs and put air in the tires. The car also runs on methane so “the Vatican won't have to worry about high gas prices,” the priest said.
   
   On Saturday, the car was loaded on a tow truck with the priest and about 100 townsfolk, including the mechanic, following along on a chartered bus to Rome.
   
   They brought the car to the front of the pope’s residence at Domus Sanctae Marthae where the pope greeted the priest and gave him a big hug. Father Zocca told the pope that he felt bad half of their group was stuck outside the gates because of security concerns, so the pope told him, “Let’s go!”
   
   They hopped in the car with the priest behind the wheel and the pope in the passenger side while the mechanic and the priest’s assistant got in the back. The mechanic warned Father Zocca to “Go slow! We’re in the Vatican” even though they were only going 18 mph.
   
   The pope met the rest of the group and then they headed back inside the Vatican with the car. The pope said he had had a Renault 4 back in the day and that “it had never let him down.”
   
   Before saying goodbye, the pope told Father Zocca, “‘Write me again.’ Then I gave him the keys and he got behind the wheel,” the priest said.
   
   “I watched him drive off in that car as if it were the most normal thing in the world,” he said.
   “The security personnel next to me were very concerned because they understood that from now on he would be tooling around the Vatican in my car,” the car donor, 69-year-old Father Renzo Zocca, told the Italian Catholic magazine, Famiglia Cristiana.

These two are stuck between walk and don't walk, John Office of Speaker Boehner needs to get his priorities in order instead of beating them out of Nancy for judgement day on the call of Syria. They need to wipe they're shitty eaten smirk of a smile off their faces of condescending, to We the People...keepamericaheard.blogspot.com

Cycles of turmoil

page 193

As stricken as I was, my life was very limited with those to trust.
I sometimes stand in the center and watch everyone around me, then again, I step out to look in.
To hear the sorrows that fill my eyes with tears, from the storm that lies within my Heart.
Fear is what I keep inside, tears are what I try to hide.
Another tide has washed up my pain, as it cleanses my soul with it's invigorating spirit.
The chanting sound of a cry through the wind, echoes from afar,
To hear the sound of children laughing, and the whimpering of a child, stolen in the dark night.
Observe the vicious circle of people who have betrayed one another, Yet, begs for an approval from either one.
Play an feed off the good, to nurture your arrogance, like a cold shallow heart, that bleeds with thorns of pain an open wound.
Seek those that lurk in the alleys of desperation, and see the color of grey.
Hear the weak, but be aware of those recovering.
To see ourselves in a lifetime, is living in a glass fish bowl, with everyone's hand out to reel in another statistic.
Separation becomes from a world lived apart, as "We the People" will stand as one.
If you think about it, we are all riders of the storm at the "Verge of Red."
Someone once told me, too tell it all, so I did with passion.

Thank you readers,

I had a Dream

As I sit and view on tomorrows cold days of war still ahead, the outlook seems distant, of bringing our troops back home safely, Yet, the suffering continues of lives being murdered in callous...

Our Nation that feeds off the race card played by our media, socialism politics, and "We the People", have to stop bleeding the minds of individuals of such hatred amongst.
Stop labeling and following the leaders of the country that lean towards such cruelty of mankind, words of pain marked by racism, and focus on the big issues at stake-

The countries that praise war and punish their own civilians, killing of nuclear waste or chemical weapons, we're taught for over 2,000 years to hate America and praise on their war of religion.

Maybe it's because America stands for 1 Nation under GOD, in which these countries live and breathe the old mighty war of their God, Yet, our politicians follow and preach these beliefs, which is affecting our Country as a Nation.
Is the Elite along with our President becoming like other country leaders, like Hasaad, Putin, and the Taliban, that breed and fester on War amongst human lives?

Why can't other countries come together and stop these wasted wars of rage on religion and lives, and follow the very soul freedom of America,which is slowly being diminished from the Constitutional Civil Rights act.

Form leadership with guidance as countries walk together, NOT in war, beside one another rejoicing in the freedom of life expressed, which America represents freedom of the Worlds stage.
I had a dream,

   I'm watching the last word with Lawrence O'Donnell on MSNBC, and the FBI posted and said this after the Martin Luther King speech in 1963 pure f****** racist, f****** FBI was wiretapping Martin Luther King's phone conversations.

   
   

   That the FBI was serting for the Kennedys, after the FBI warned Robert Kennedy that Martin Luther was a communist, what a bunch of b*******.
   
   

   Why take a beautiful place and time of MLK and speak of such hanis 
   words of hate at a time like this in our economy,I'll tell you why.
   
   

   1st) The big Elite that run and rule this country, and the foreign high ends that pay these news stations to publicize the race card game, to distract American's (We the People) from what's really at large, 
   creating World War 3 is a big possibility.  
   
   

   2nd) 
   Playing the race card, to turn unity into separation from a world lived apart, I believe we as humans/individuals are much on top of this game by now.
   
   

   Lets give us credit, "We the People" can outsmart the leaders of hatred on racism, and our religious beliefs.
   Stand as one Nation under God, lord hear our prayer, Thanks to be God,
   
   

   Don't forget,

   Keep our America heard, and stay strong in the sacred Heart you wear...

   

   
   

   

   Yet the Liberals like Bill O'Reilly blamed Hoover for the wire tapping, as the plot thickens....?

   Obama's ready to start military action against Syria,there needs to 

   be a Congressional vote against it. Just like President Bush Jr. said, 

   there were mass destruction of weapons, and "We the People" 

   know how that turned out, there was none found. 

   I agree, we need to test a sample of the humans that were killed by 

   chemical weapons used, question the ones that 

   survived. 

   We don't even know if Hasaud even use this type of Chemical 

   weapon, it could all be just another waste of taxpayers money with a 

   World War 3.

   That will put us in even more in debt than you could fathom.

-keepamericaheard- The big Syria question, should the U.S. yes/no involve?

Politically speaking, Obama better get his nose out of Syria's bullshit war of chemical weapons, that Putin has been supplying, from Russia,We do not need a World War 3 on our deficit, or especially on our lives, most important.

I did some personal interviews with people today, which I am going to start filming them on my phone, to upload on http://keepamericaheard.blogspot.com . The public feels the same, Obama needs to let them fight their own Wars, not us, Bring our troops back home safely, and focus on restoring America, and what its forefathers meant. Let these sick individuals terrorists over in Iran, Iraq, and Syria battle it out.They have been at war for 2,000 years over Religion.

Everyone has the right to practice their own religious beliefs, no one or no Country should ever speak of force other religions into other countries, upon the people.

We have no business getting our America involved in such hatred stode within.We do need to be at hand on what's going on, because one day Putin and Syria could very well use the chemical or Nuclear into our Nation.

One important factor I must bring up, in Obama's book, he states:If it comes down to muslims, he's siding with them, quote on quote.   Not only do we have to fear of Putin, the Russian trader, but our own Chief of Commander, the President of the United States. Maybe Obama should take his family and go fight the war, and keep us out of harms dangerous ways of Wars of Religion.

Putin was never for the United States, he will always be a trader to our Nation, and his own people. Who cares who's killing who, not to sound shallow, there has to be a fine line, we need to focus on our Nation under God, for liberty and Justice for all. 

Meanwhile the walls of our Constitution of Civil Rights are diminishing by the hours of days ahead.
Yet, I can say, there hasn't been much justice on our behalf, as our leaders keep heading us for pure self destructiveness of cruelty brought upon "We the People", globally.I feel for those who have lost their lives, where innocently taken by such horrific devastation of chemically embalmed.  

Once again, Obama is putting our Country, our America buried under war of lives stolen, amongst globally.I pray for our Nation, that "We the People", stand as one, and surrender to unity, thats all we have left of the prayer of God.
Don't 4get, -keepamericaheard-
