Want Need Relationship?

By Alan Forrest Smith | July 25, 2010

This I suppose is a little off topic for me but the response was so huge on Facebook I really wanted to share it for the simple reason it might help you.

I posted this small not on Facebook

‘Being alone is an interesting and very human process. It forces me to discover who I really and truly am at a much more subconscious level. I ask myself… Are you happy? Are you sad? Do you need a partner? Can you be alone and happy? These are the kind of questions and more I have been forced to ask myself. This is about me and what I want and need for my life…’

Think about this….

You are with people all of your young life, then as you get older your almost always with others,  family, friends and more. You get married or you are in a long term relationship and again you are always with someone. You are never alone and rarely [...] Continue Reading…

Dead Self

By Alan Forrest Smith | July 23, 2010

As I walked along the old railway in the distance I could see a figure sat in the shade to the left.

The closer I got the more detail I could see. It was a man, he was alone, he was sitting down, looking almost staring at the floor.

It was sunny yet he was sat in the shade. There was lots of free space yet he sat still, silent and unmoved at any visible level.

The closer I got the more I could feel the almost dark depressing side of the character. At this point I was around 10 feet away from him I looked at him to say good morning, I knew he could see me but remained still, unmoved sitting silent without a flinch as I walked by. He was in a wheelchair.
All I could feel is this mans…DEAD-SELF.

I kept on walking for another 10 feet but this guy was filling my head with thoughts of ‘is he ok?’.

I [...] Continue Reading…

News Narcotics

By Alan Forrest Smith | July 15, 2010

Did you see it, read it, the news?

Hooked, addicted, news, abuser … this is the world of the News Narcotic!

I was in my village today where I live and a guy asked if I’d seen the news all week? I said ‘no’

He reply, ‘no are you serious you don’t know about this guy killing his ex-wife, shooting a policeman in the face hiding for days and then shooting himself live on TV in the head?’

‘No’ I replied. He looked at me as if I had just landed from another solar system on a day visit to Lymm!

The conversation ended. Then as I looked along the line EVERYONE was talking about this news incident. Even worse Jean (the till girl) would say to every single person at the checkout the same line…

‘did you see that man on the news shooting all of those people and then killing himself, Terrible wasn’t it, terrible’

I eventually got to the checkout and she repeated [...] Continue Reading…

Adulterous Bitch?

By Alan Forrest Smith | July 9, 2010

Music Teacher and Married Mother of 5 Runs off With 25 Year Old Music Student

Adulterous Bitch!

Shocking right but true. Or is it?

Just a few doors away from me lives a lady of 74 years old.

Just yesterday as I was putting out some washing to dry I heard a voice shout ‘Alan, Alan’

I went to the path to see this frail, unstable woman calling me. It was my neighbor Hilary.

She wanted to talk. Honestly I was busy yet I knew she wanted some time so I sat down and listened.

I asked how she was? She has got shingles and clearly lost a lot of weight. I asked her… ‘where is Roger?’. Roger is her husband.

She replied…

‘we are still deeply in love you know from the day we met’

Interesting I thought as I never asked her anything like that but she still offered to tell me that.

I smiled, she smiled, she then told me her story.

She said…

‘There’s a big age [...] Continue Reading…

Bastard Genius

By Alan Forrest Smith | July 7, 2010

How is it a Bastard can become one of the most creative minds in history?

Let me explain and also show you how knowing this could change the way you think and feel.

When born in April 15th 1452 his father took him away to live with him while his mother married another man eventually giving birth to another 17 siblings.

Because the child was a ‘bastard’ born outside of marriage this instantly gave him the handicap of being disqualified from education by the Church.

This meant if he was to learn… he would have to teach himself. So he went about teaching himself to write. Yet his technique was unusual to say the least. As he had never had formal education of any sort his writing to a form of writing from right to left in a nation where like the English all wrote from left to right.

Successful at writing his life then took on a voyage of discovery and achievement. This [...] Continue Reading…

The Connected Disconnects

By Alan Forrest Smith | July 2, 2010

I got a text message from a pal of mine. I had already asked him to meet for lunch and chat. His reply was ‘too busy’

I rang him and said doing what? He replied doing stuff.

Interesting I know for a fact his life appears to be fast. Going here, going there, doing this, doing that yet I wonder I just wonder.

I went for a walk thinking about him. I was thinking about him because he is part of the new super-generation of connected disconnects.

Think about this.

When I was 12 I had a young guy from the USA in my class for around 3-4 months. It was the first time any of us had seen an American outside the movies. I can remember us all being fascinated with this character wanting to hear him talk.

Now kids know people from all over the planet and it’s seen as normal. As I type my son Oli is on his PS3 speaking with [...] Continue Reading…

Highland Dream Maker

By Alan Forrest Smith | March 15, 2010

Meet Cameron.

He is a dreamer. He is a doer. He is a highlander. Cameron is building a house made from trees, real trees, huge trees, not a weak mans log. This is the real thing.

Let me explain.

On a recent trip into the Highlands of Scotland my friend drove me past and immense wooden structure standing alone in the forest. I asked my friend to quickly pull over and stop. I got out and couldn’t believe what I was looking at. It was a house built from trees, not small logs but massive full grown trees!

I was intrigued to say the least. This was my dream home and clearly someone else’s , I went to find out more.

So I decided to walk down the lane into the forest to check out what was going on.

As I walked down there was a work shed on the left, surrounded by chopped wood and tools. On the right was an even bigger shed [...] Continue Reading…

DivineDelusionDeception?

By Alan Forrest Smith | March 9, 2010

Have you noticed…

God for cash, God for love, God for living, real God, no God, I’m God, Your God and… this is just an observation but…

I met this lady.

She was wonderful. We went for a long walk in a long open space and she spoke to me in a gentle kind manner about how her life has been revealed, opened and guided.

She used to believe in God.
Now she believes in herself as a god.

She used to rely on God.
Now she relies on herself as a godlike being.

She used to pray to God.
Now she chants endless repetitions about how she has arrived to save the World.

Now this is JUST AN OBSERVATION… but is there more and more of these people coming out of the woodwork?

She had given up everything.

Her car, her home, her husband, her regular life. She was now flat broke and had no plans. I asked her why? She replied because the Universe has plans for her, big, [...] Continue Reading…

RealRareHuman

By Alan Forrest Smith | February 25, 2010

Her name was Andromache, she was beautiful and strong like a real woman should be and used to be. Her hair was long, thick, dark and would blow in the wind like the sails of a ship blowing on the seas.

Her skinned was smoothed with exotic oils and the finest luxury care that could be afforded.

Andromache was tall, refined, stunning and every bit the Greek looking goddess she was meant to be.

Her life was a life of a Greek queen. She was worshiped as she should and would also worship the man that would give his very last breath for her. Her man was the kind of man we mostly no longer make. He was a real man, a warrior man, strong, proud, defiant and loving. Nothing could touch him, nothing could affect him, nothing could break his love for his wife. His name was Hector.

Yet here I was sitting in a Museum in Manchester across the small, aged [...] Continue Reading…

the MESSAGE

By Alan Forrest Smith | January 14, 2010

People are asking more and more about the MESSAGE.

If you are one of those I think you’ll find this quick interview about the MESSAGE interesting.

********************************
INT: So Alan, what is the MESSAGE all about?

You know, as a child growing up, developing, learning, discovering we all accept what we are told in love from our parents and most other adults in institutions like school, colleges, authorities etc. That is normal for inexperienced kids and adults right?

Yet as we begin to step into adulthood we very quickly discover that a lot of what we were told doesn’t appear to have a solid foundation in the truth of life. In fact a lot of what we have been told tends to hold us back, time and time again. This in turn can create problems for us in areas of … Relationships, health, finances and more.

Yet all of what we have been told to help us in life as we grew up was told [...] Continue Reading…
