LEARN FROM THE WILD

LEARN TO BE WILD

     Mommy beaver and all the other animal mommy's taught their babies one word, with many meanings, The word  is "no," meaning Hot, or Danger, or whatever, but they didn't have to say anything aloud, she taught them by allowing them to do there own thing, and learn most of it on there own, the hard way, even in play they could experiment, and learned from taking a risk, mama could only hurt them to say no or hot or danger, she knew they had to learn fast, by there risky experimenting, and punishing them with pain when they went to far. In the wild, over-protecting the young, will get them killed, so they have to learn real fast or something will eat them.
     That is one part of the call of the wild, the other is the feelings we learn from, that tell us what we should do, like it feels good, looks safe, urgent needs, all are parts of the call of the wild, that civilization has completely destroyed, leaving us in a danger of confusion, who is right, who is wrong, who can we trust, is there hope, because we lost touch with our wild side. In other words we got super spoiled, blaming others for everything, we think we are to smart, to important, to superior, to be told anything, why listen to everyone, when we can choose anyone we wish to listen to, and wonder why we are in so much trouble. All because we put very little in our brain to interpret, nothing there to enable us to protect ourselves, or even be able to help ourselves.
     It became to easy to blame others for everything, losing trust, even telling others our secrets to get revenge, not understanding we need each other to survive. We humans depend on our governments for so many protections that we don't even know how to help ourselves, then we have the hungry predictors, rich on the top, doing all they can with laws to keep us poor, so they can prey on us, and able to get away with it, because we are dumb enough to think we can get that rich also, without hurting anyone, without realizing that is the attitude the rich want so they can contain us into an uppity attitude not realizing we are just in dept rich pretenders who are at the bottom like the poor. They call this a middle class and the poor, even though they are both poor and kept this way with scams we fall for, that divide us, like pigs in a pen.
     Our only chance is to get rid of those Trolls that want to divide us, and the only way to do this is to; become respectful to one another, really listen to one another, do not become loyal to no political party or special interest groups, don't expect others to do, when others know you wouldn't do it. Become a mighty team, learning to teach others to trust you and learning to trust them, get rid of your petty jealousy's, and learn to read people for there honesty and integrity, and try to be come one with them. Friends, it really does take two to tango and right now we have even more desperately cutting each others throats, just to see the blood run, with every one who dies we become weaker, with everyone who gets sick or goes hungry, we end up with a lost defender.
     Listen, I fought beside children of every age some smoking cig's like adults, I saw them as being as wise as I was, people of so many different colors, and I saw them all as my friends, ready to stand at there side, in the battlefield, so afraid I would disappoint them in some way as a coward. As we are all cowards without others to encourage us on, give us a reason to be at there side, because this way, acting as a team, we have a reason to take that risk for all.
    

Mental Illness Deception

Mental Illness Deception, by Russell R Ellis

Do we want to label the mentally ill like we do, sexual child abusers, so they won't go to a mental health clinic for help. Labeling someone mentally ill as school shooters is extremely misleading, because those mentally ill we are talking about, are those who have never been proven mentally ill, they are the ones who get into Congress or the Senate to do damage like little children far from puberty acting foolish in public.
     Troll's, don't want people like child abusers or those with mental illness to get help or try to get them the wrong help by misleading the public, by saying the mentally ill are not treated or can't be cured. They get away with it because they mislead the public by what mental illness isn't.
      There are three different areas of mental illness, brain problems, drain damage, and both causing  medical behavior problems, the other is non medical or modified behavior, treated with behavior modification.The first two are treated by surgery or medications, and the second is not just limited to the brain, like many organs like the pancreas cause mental problems, with diabetes, that can even leave you in a coma or death. Modification behavior is where you grew up thinking what you learned to do is OK, so to treat you they have to use behavior modification, and the institutions you would go to for treatment is a jail or prison, less problems go to treatment clinics and treated with behavior modification, like punishment or tricks to cause you to change your behavior. All these behaviors are only treated because the were diagnosed to be a behavior problem or mental illness. These people are not the mentally ill we talk about being school shooters. Those mentally ill are those not diagnosed as mentally ill, simply put, just suspected to be mentally ill.
     The mentally ill get treated, the suspected mentally ill don't, and they are the problem.

The Legend

******************************

Many, say rainbow land has been around since the moon, stars, wind, water, fire and the sun were made, and the rain began to fall. In reality, legend says, what made it so important to humans, a bunny, being chased by Willy the fox, well I am sure you know why, and this bunny, fell into a hole and was caught by Sparkles the mouse. This happened on Easter.

Now please forgive me, as I am getting ahead of our story. So lets back up and start from before the bunny fell from the hole in the ground.
The bunnies name was Easter Bunny Dandy and he was the brother of two sisters, Lynne, Cee, and a Julie Dee Dandy. They enjoyed playing in a meadow, just outside there forest area, not far from the hole in the ground under a tree where there nest was at, where they rested at the end of the day.

“lets go and play hide and seek in the meadow, Lynne and Julie” yelled to Easter Bunny Dandy, as he ran from the house with the girls right behind him, screaming in excitement. Arriving at the meadow, Julie Yelled, “lets play tag, you are it Lynne.” And off they ran chasing each other around the meadow, screaming with joy, when out leaped Willy the fox, and he just missed Lynne Bunny, and hit Easter bunny on the right front shoulder, causing him to fall and breaking his paw, as Willy the fox was turning around to get Easter Bunny dandy, a rock hit him and a yell followed as a little girl and boy came running to help him and Willy the Fox ran off to hide from them in the woods. The girl picked up Easter Bunny Dandy, “he is hurt” said the worried little boy, we best take him home and fix him up, “mean old fox” said the girl in anger, “we can bring him back when his paw is healed” said the boy, so they took him to there home where they took care of him until he was well enough to leave, then they sadly took him back to the meadow and let him go. “do you think he will remember us when he grows up” ask the little boy, “maybe” said the little girl as they walked off, heading home.
Lynne and Julie, were playing in the field and ran into a brush pile on the outer side of the meadow when they saw the boy and girl entering the meadow. “Will they hurt us” asked Lynne, “not if we stay hidden,” said Julie. Then they saw this big bunny hopping toward them, “its Easter bunny” yelled Lynne. They were so happy to see him again, laughing in joy as he excitedly told them about the two wonderful human children who helped him survive, Willy's attack on him and how they took such wonderful care of him. He spoke of wanting to do something good for them, but had no idea what to do, so he put it all in back of his mind and enjoyed the day with his sisters.

Well, my friends, that didn't last long, the very next day as Easter Bunny Dandy was hopping out to the field, on his own, just thinking about all that had happened to him, out jumped Willy the Fox, causing Easter bunny to leap sideways and landing in a hole dropping, dropping, down, down and still more down and falling into a sky of another world, then he saw something sparkling, like lightening, as it streaked toward him, it came from know-where grabbing him, and slowing his fall.

"Wow you are one big rabbit, mate", said the sparkling thing, "well you are the biggest rat I ever saw", said Easter Bunny Dandy, "but I am not a rabbit, I'm a bunny, names Easter Bunny." "Well, surprise, surprise, I am not a rat, I am a big zoom mouse, we, zoom mice can fly and well, I don't know what happened to me, but my tail always sparkles, so they call me Sparkles. " Easter bunny explained that he was born a big bunny, “like you, I was born different, not with a sparkling tail, but just so big, like a rabbit.” soon they landed on a trail by a stream, with colored sparkling water. “Welcome to Rainbow land Easter Bunny.”

Easter Bunny explained to Sparkles, everything that had happened to him as they sat at the Zoom mice table eating chocolate covered peanuts, that was tasty good candy.
Then Sparkles took Easter Bunny on a tour of Rainbow-land. Ponds of chocolate, butterscotch, mint, water falls of sparkling waters colored yellow blue, red, green over flowing into rivers of the same colors, marshmallow bogs, fields of different coloreds, and on and on. Then Easter Bunny announced, “I have to get home Sparkles, can you get me up there.” Of course, my friend” said Sparkles.
After Easter Bunny goes back home, he excitedly told his Mom, and Dad Dandy about Rainbow land and what he saw and said "Dad when I grow up I'm giving all the children in the world candy on Easter day and when he did grow up, well, that's exactly what he did.
Easter Bunny and Sparkles got together one day and took baskets of candy, to the children who helped him, when he got hurt, and waited to see the look on there faces, then when he saw them, screaming in Joy, he was so happy, and Sparkles told them his name was Easter bunny, and when he grew up he would be back every year with candy on Easter day. Over the years the name of Easter Bunny and the candy he gave, those children, became a legend, even though he hadn't began giving other children candy yet, because he was still a bunny. But, he grew even bigger as he got older and then one day he told Mom and Dad Dandy that he was going to Rainbow land and prepare for the next Easter. Julie and Lynne said they would come from time to time and help him fill the baskets, so Easter Bunny said he would send Sparkles when ever they wanted to come, and he would bring them home when they were ready.
Now as you already know, his name is Easter Bunny Dandy, you know him as the Easter Bunny. He is really a Rabbit, A bunny is a baby rabbit, but the handle Bunny (his middle name) sticks like glue, so why fight something so innocent. As you can tell he likes blue jeans, long sleeve flannel shirts mostly sky blue or green, bandanna, and a green alps hat.
His friend sparkles a big huge mouse, is as big as a rat, & wares sky blue bib coveralls, a bandanna around his neck, biker boots and a green long sleeve shirt. another thing you best know or you will be afraid of him, is he has a tail that sparkles different light colors like led lights, and he can fly, as does his mice buddy’s, and family. You see, he is a zoom mouse, and like the other zoom mice he can fly. They they later pull the red Easter wagon and Sparkles fly's ahead lighting the way with his forever sparkling tail.  
Now Rainbow land is a mysterious land with a strange religion, they say it was given by a God and his son, a gift to a hermit who gave his life, to rescue a family from an army of evil troops. He loved animals and always ask god to make a speicial place for the animals he so liked. So when Gods baby was born, on the day of the Hermits death, a hole formed in the ground and all this hermits beloved animals were sucked into it and landed them softly in a now beautiful land, not far from where an old oak tree grew, right where that brave man died for that family.

   The animals in Rainbow land, a place that's been around forever, as they do not remember when they got here, let alone the land got there, its been here that long a time. This place is full of mountains, full of trees like a jungle, flowers and meadow's of different colors of Easter grass, that they put into your Easter basket. There are Colored lakes, full of melted chocoholic, butterscotch, cherry and other yummy candy, and they have tinted water ponds, full of dyed water of different colors, to color candy eggs. And along the mountain leading up to the zoom mice villages, is surrounded by marshmallow bog.

    When they first got to Rainbow-land, Sparkles and Easter bunny, were walking down a small trail along one of the many sparkling streams, where many Easter egg's are colored in. This one had ripples of shy blue tinted water splashing over the rocks, that glittered off the leaves of the green tree's lining the path leading to the path that goes to Robin Redbreast nest, up in the trees, who lays the robin candy eggs, and Goldy, the golden hen, who lays the chicken candy eggs in her house up on a hill along the stream, not far from Robin Redbreast's nest in the tree. Other birds that laid candy eggs were all around, as were many other animals who helped take care of the land.
    Down by the grass fields, lives the Clipper Ants and they clip the grass that goes into the Easter baskets, you can see them chugging along, with bundles of hay, with pretty smiles on there faces, in fact all the animals had never ending smiles that make everyone feel peace in the air. 
    Now of course Easter Bunny wasn't the only rabbit in Rainbow Land, he was just another rabbit from above the sky, of Rainbow Land. Now he, his sisters, and his family, live at his new home and the rest is legend.

Rainbow land  by

Russell R Ellis
I first wrote the story when my son sucked a chunk of color crayon  into his lung, while coloring Easter eggs, so we had to go take him to the hospital, as a whistling came from his mouth or lung, anyway, to get rid of the crayon and the loud whistle he made as he breathed, it took a few days to be coughed out. I also wrote Wick the wicked troll, and Martin the elf at that time, back in the seventy's. 
 ********************************************************************************
    
The Easter Bunny has been around a long time, but you know very little about him. Mostly because storytellers forgot faith, hope, and exploring, comes from dreams and dreams come from stories. To understand faith, ethics, and ideals, we give children stories to dream about, dreams about good people, animals, or thoughts others have about how things like religion's, ethics and Ideals, are interpreted so we know how something becomes so important people wish to believe in it, causing us to step back and allow them there belief, hoping they will honor our beliefs. Here is his story, told to me by an old friend.
     They say rainbow land has been around since the moon, sun were made, and the rain began to fall. In reality, legend says. it became known as rainbow land, when baby Jesus was born and the Wise-Animals from there went to see the baby in the stable come into being as God on earth. But that wasn't what made it so important to humans. No, it happened on Easter, the day Jesus came back to life after he was crucified. The same day, a bunny, being chased by Willy the fox to have him for lunch, but don't blame Willy, bunny's are some of the animals that a fox eats, and this bunny, fell into a hole and was caught by Sparkles the mouse. This happened on Easter, as I said before a day that was always celebrated when Jesus arose, after he died on the cross, they say.

      Now please forgive me, as we are getting ahead of our story. So lets back up and start from where the bunny fell from the hole in the ground. This was one of the biggest bunnies on earth, when he rolled into a ball playing in the snow he looked like a baby polar bear. I seems like every time I go to the fair, I see bunnies bigger and bigger every time, you ever noticed that, the other day a neighbor's rabbit got out and what a shock, it was so big I ask the neighbor boy if he road it, he just laughed.
     The bunnies name was Easter Bunny Dandy and he was the brother of two sisters, Lynne Bunny Dandy, and a Julie Bunny Dandy.
       The children bunnies enjoyed playing in a meadow, just outside there forest area, not far from the hole in the ground under a tree where the nest was at, where they rested at the end of the day.
     One day they were playing in the meadow and out leaped Willy the fox and just missed Lynne Bunny, and just clipped Easter bunny, breaking his paw, as Willy the fox was turning around to get Easter Bunny dandy, a rock hit him and a yell followed as a little girl and boy came running to help him and Willy the Fox ran off to hide from them in the woods. The girl picked up Easter Bunny Dandy and took him home where they took care of him until he was well enough to leave and they took him back to the meadow and let him go.
      Lynne and Julie, were so happy to see him again, laughing in joy as he excitedly told them about the two wonderful human children who helped him survive, Willy's attack on him and how they took such wonderful care of him.  He spoke of wanting to do something good for them, but had no idea what to do, so he put it all in back of his mind and enjoyed the day with his sisters.

      "Well, surprise, surprise, I am not a rat, I am big zoom mouse, we, zoom mice can fly and I don't know what happened to me, but my tail always sparkles, so they call me Sparkles."
      Easter Bunny explained to Sparkles, everything that had happened to him as they sat at the Zoom mice table eating chocolate covered peanuts, that was tasty good candy.
     Sparkles took Easter Bunny on a tour of Rainbow-land.
     After Easter Bunny goes back home, he excitedly told his Mom  and Dad Dandy about Rainbow land and what he saw and said "Dad when I grow up I'm giving all the children in the world candy on Easter day and when he did grow up that's exactly what he did.

Remember The Days Of Chauvinist Pig Men

"Chauvinist pig men" was a phrase used in the 70's, to describe men who acted like they were superior to women, when women wanted a right to be equal to men. It was OK to say this sexist phrase to men, and I see it gaining a comeback, only being used against sexist women by men this time,  women acting like they are supreme to men, who are above the law, have to be believed right or wrong, it reminds me of the days men thought women were so week or fragile they had to be protected, and they could do no wrong.
     At that same time, we learned on TV western's as a child, that it was dishonorable to shoot a man in the back. Then came a war in Vietnam that left us fighting that war wondering, why we were killing women and little girls, so young, that we would be going to jail back home if we made love to them, causing sex with a young girl's to be more wrong then killing them, so pat me on the back for killing them, I saw America being sick, way back then and it just got worse.
    Then there was the ambush, where we kill them by shooting them in the back, so I guess now we were to ware black cowboy hats, and women and goody to shoes men back home, would war the white hats, causing everything we learned to be wrong, became a right, contrary to what was considered the way it was before the war, it was a now a right, only given to us in battle.
     The phrase, male chauvinist pig was a surprise to us after hearing we were already refereed to, as baby killers so often, causing a stigma, causing us, the accused, to feel guilty of being a bully supremacist, you created to fight in the Vietnam war for you. With the accusing still going, even today, like vigilantes out to hang us for doing what you wanted us to do to keep you safe, even after you sent us to war to become what you now hate, and called us chauvinist pig's for giving in to your wishes.
     You people changed the rules, not us, your lawmakers just did what you wanted, making them as dirty as you claimed we were, Both political parties, you support became you and gave you the laws to accuse, and have a vigilante justice system, to hang, the suspect, instead of trying them in a court of law. You do-gooders, used your religion, or greed, to tell us to go fight, and later to get prayed for to be forgiven for all the children we killed, that you sent us to kill.
     When a man returning home thought the CIA was out to kill him, during the last part of the war in 1968, when the Nation and Military turn against the Vietnam Veteran for fighting in that war and draft dodgers were aloud to stay Stateside and pardoned, for agreeing to it, became the Vietnam Veterans worst nightmare.
     Having the higher rank, so able to harass the returning vets, even refusing them mental health treatments, so a friend of this young man, that thought the CIA was trying to kill him, went home with him. As that was the only way to get him to go home so his parents could help him, as the army was no help at all. When he got home his parents got him into a mental hospital, his friend, well he had no way to get back and no money, so he got on a freight train and was crushed in it on the way back to his unit, and he even got in trouble for it all, when that young mans company commander told him to help him and get back the best way he could, when he didn't need him anymore.
     Non of this history covered up by the Government politicians now aligned with Nixon Republican war protesters was questioned by the media or those preserving history, by the evasion of the draft evaders, deserters, and those in the military back home were given the right to do whatever it took to ruin the reputation of the returning troops.
     Then there was this young man who returned home from Vietnam during that same time period, and was bullied by a draft dodger who got stateside duty also and pardoned for it, as he called the Vietnam vet names like baby killer, so he hit him and ended up in the stockade for 6 months. You, my draft evader friends, screwed up this nation so bad, that I don't know if it will ever heal.
     You war protesters got so spoiled you couldn't tolerate anything at all, not even wanting your duty to serve your country, so you got rid of the draft, yet the draft was patriotism. You even needed more and more protective laws that took away you rights, and wonder why we have a monster in office, you put having the first woman in office as more important then, making sure you won an election that was a sure thing. An election that Could have made things better for everyone. So now you have a monster taking over. Both political parties twisted everything around including right and wrong, your priority's stink.
     You even judge the past, by today's standards as though you didn't know, the past was so much more free, then today, with even different feeling for the law's made, then today, because they wanted a freedom, you no longer want. You dig up bones, without considering the consequences of your actions, the one requirement to becoming an adult, just so you can judge them, by today's standards. I hated religion for doing this to other Nations to force them to believe what you wanted them to believe and caused the wars we ended up in because you couldn't keep your nose on our side of the fence. I can tell you, that you are far from being pure, just read all these faults I have accused you of. Yes you got a huge ball of humans sticking to, bound down a steep hole leading straight to hell, and you probable are dragging me with you.
     Yes, I just accused you all, without a court of law, and it feels real nice and I hope all of you lose your jobs like those you cause to lose theirs, just to be supreme.

New memories

A note to myself.
After talking to a combat vietnam Vet friend a few days ago, I remembered a few things, of course ir created more confusion for me, but does confirm a few things, lost in the past, in my world of confusion. Our sgt couldn't leave Vietnam because of some disease, and a truck was blown up on a runway, by an APG round direct hit from the front as it  drove down the middle of the runway, trying to get troops to the end that was overrun, by the enemy, instead of setting up a defence at our controlled area on the runway as requested. The SGT survived we think by jumping of the running board he was riding on, before the APG hit.
