Personal Writings-

Joel Akin

September 2005

Welcome to my personal writings page. Over the years I have grown spiritually, emotionally, and maybe physically. Of course we all like to see ourselves as grown up. But not all of us like to see the changes that come when we do grow up. Sometimes there is war, sometimes there is destruction, sometimes there is sorrow. I know. I've seen them and grown up with them on the television. You have also. Its part of our landscape, our 'culture', our lifestyle. But what do we do with knowledge when its handed to us. What do we call wisdom when its revealed to us? How do we handle the touch of inspiration, fate, chance and/or circumstance? Are we predestined in our walk with God? Do we clutch at the taste of the fruit that kicked man out of the garden?

In all of our steps we are challenged by the desire to do good but struggle with the desires that cling to us to do otherwise. All of us desire an end to solitude and struggles but most of us are unwilling to fight against the status quo. To see change and to hear it coming like a far away train. What will be the sound of its coming? Will it come with a horn or a sighing of breaks. To understand we must go back in time to learn from our mistakes before we can ever hope to move forward. We must not forget the challenges that lie before us but never forget the challenges you've overcome. Those will teach you what must yet come in the road to life.

The Land of Nod

January 8, 2006

If I wanted to speak of sleeping I could introduce you to an expert called Me. Me sleeps a lot and snores and makes his life generally in bed. But we don't always see I to I. And perhaps that is why Me is the best friend I have when it comes to Earth House. Over the years I have gathered together the best articles, links, ideas that it is possible to find. I try to make them as interesting as possible. Yet it is still true that after all these years most visitors give a cursory glance to the screen, then cursor their way onto the next bonanza. But did you see what we have to offer? Did you find what you needed? And if not what were you looking for that made you want to leave asap? Please let me know by writing ME and letting ME know. He sleeps a lot and he has begged you to write with your knowledge and ideas. After all if you and Me were to get together with some ideas for Earth house I might get excited as well. And then you'd still have you and ME out there working hard for your efforts. Hmmm. All goes well that ends well I say. So write Me and tell him what your thoughts are and let Me know. Okay? All the best.
