Thank You Kirby and mopo Folks.I know im a bit off the wall.. but for many years it was only poster geeks and this forum that whee my refuge from the world. Im outspoken and i believe in God.. yet i was a volunteer forbarack obama and Bernie sanders andi belive in fre specch.and i was always a upprter that even people that dont agree and likestuff i dont liek should be able to do thier thing.. I like cheesecake and wild woman and God and i talk about that too... basically I am honest with him and for some reason hes still talking to me.. try t do my best to be honest in business and personal life but i am fully aware that many would think im a fruit loop..

when i ws young i always prtected the geeks, the week kids that would get bullied as i knew what itwas like myself as i was bullied... but God also gave me the ablity to protect others..so thats what i try to do when possible///part of what i also do is HUmor as thats whats got me through much stress.. and wheni try to help others many times im met with rejection and r actual downright hatred...becauee they are misinformed or they dont understand people ..im guilty of the same myself as profiling,, and all that as we learn hat as kids from what our parents thought of life and people... some felt they whee given a bum rap..

the only way I see is forgivness, which man s that hard orwhat??? i am still learnng...and ive failed many tims...

I was bummed whenon mothers day my kid gae me movie projectors..not because i dont likethem as i do but it reminded me i cant see the tiny parts and one of my great passtimes was to fix them.. so when he brought me the uke onfathers day...i thought well i cant hear great out f 1 ear but i can hear and a uke is such a beautiful joy.. i relized he has no idea what i am going through... we all have no idea what each other is going through..but trust me we all have the same hurts and issues and thats why we need to Love as much as possible... becuase we are all brothers and sisters.. eevery single one.. God bless everyon e.

OK Flip- let me address your beefs...

as far as why i write like i do.. partailly its because i am a Illiterete.. and never learned proper spelling or grammar.. as i left school at age 15 and was expelled as i drew a Picture of Led zeppling in art class instead of florals..i think it was 1971... And you know what.. I would do it again ..just like i feel people likeyou that are angery at God,,(whom you call names and are mad at

You just dont get it...

ee Gods plan is very precise unlike me ..

I am partially blind and is why my spelling and grammar are also so bad..I only have one good eye.. my leaft ear went deaf due o antibiotics and i walk like quisimodo.. as i had my foot reconstructed in 2013.. ive had my last rights read as i became sepsis and almost died in 2012 and ive had 4 heart stenes..

Ive heard others like you say they are angery with God... just ast week a friend said His dad die ofalzheimers andhe was angery with God..becausee his dad was a good man and didnt deserve to die a horrible death..

I had another friend whom after climbing the ladder f corpp succes had just boughta new 500.00 home and was riding high when his wife got cancer and died.. when I asked who do you feel about God?? he said we Feel ROBBed as they deserved more.... then i called him back he wouldnt even talk to me he was so hurtand bitter... he then got esophoguus cancer and died last year.. they had 3 kids..she didnt get to see them graduate..


so sure get angry at God... blame god for not ruushing in and saving the day.. but fact is he knows very well as he gave his ONLY son because he loved the world so he would tak all the burdens and mistakes of man on himself so we could have everlasting Life.. no just this 100 or so topes liefe where you look like a california raisan.. but everlasting and forever..

AS i was being taken to the cleveland clinic-June 13th where i have had about 5-7 surgeries for my eyes..(glucome,catara,vitrectomy,iredectomy, tubes in my eyes, avasticn shots , lazers) the driver a christian woman pointed out the story of job,,,he was tested with every form of loss and never turned against God as he said well..i will not leave you..and man did he get the pressure.. whenMy surgeon on my foot asked me which do you prefer to doe Tom..heart attack, infection, blindness, cancer, what?? i said well doc none sounds great i guess blindness because i loveto see stuffand thats been my whole business .. but audio also as i play music and love sounds..i like to smell, touch , walk, all of it.. but if its gods will,, then Im Good with whatever happens.. as thats how i even have got this far..

when I asked God why am i experiencing so much suffering and sadness .. the answer i got was how would you ever understand what my children have been through if you didnt walk in thier shoes... how could you possible know what it feels like not to see, not to hear, not to walk,,unless you expeienced it??

ThenI said thank You God this is not a curse,,but a blessing as perhaps i can help others not give uphave anger and feel they are owed and demand you to fix thier issues.. as i see you have not done this but are trying to teach us to love unconditionally each other andhelp others to get well in thier hearst and souls..

And i belive your promice to us that we will all be united in the future for eternity..and without pain and suffering..

So my surgeon one themost highly respected docs inthe world a military doc who now heads the dalas texas univercity southwestren ortho.. besides being a army doc andias also a christioan..whenhe was head of the mash unit in Iraq and also in Germany he was considered the finest surgeon to rebuild feet and limbs..he did the green berets and seals and spe ops..

after i told him my answer..that what ever god wanted is fine with me.. he said well thats why yourstill alive today.is becase you believe...

I said I do??? i said im so scared as i have no idea what i am doing buti figure God doesand so far its liek a movie script and i think will work out for Gods plan...

I think when we trust god..he knows what we need and helps us..
when we get angry with God and say he should do it ou way like kids that dont listen to the parents we screw up and get lost...

I hope you Filip find peace in whatever happened to cause you such anger and sadness...

all the best and God bles, Tom

ps my son bought me a Ukulele forfathers day andits really cute and ill add to my collection of Ukes.its a 1940s -Biltmore from chicago -tenor you never hear a sad song on a Uke

well , as usual i did start reading your mail here but then i gave up
, for some reason the first phrase is always correct and then it looks
like you start writing at the speed of someone who just sniffed a

God never talked to me , i used to talk a lot to him , calling him a
bastard piece of shit but then i realized it was a bit daft to address
something that is not there
anyway , an advise that you must have heard before , if you're

SUBJECT: Re: [MOPO] Sold for 1.2m metropolis poster
what if I told you God told me he was dysfunctional too?
I was taking the trash out one day and was stressed as my own so was
add
and dexlexic..well I asked god why are these kids so screwed up
mentally
confused..
as i walked to the street the m essge i got was awesome.. he said
dont
wrry about tem they are blessed and sensitive to whats arondthem
thats
why they act like they do... they are sensitive..
I could relate this to a VU meter in a recording studio where if To
much
date or sound is put in the meter peaks because its overloaded...
He basically said they are fine... its the ones with Blinders on that
dont see others andharden thier hearts that are really ill and sick
in
the heart and soul..
wow i thought how profound... he said look at naure do you see
order??
he said im so diverse and ADD thats why i make all these beautiful
things like trees, mountains, oceans and allow the Human s to have
free thought and free choices..not o enslave them but set them free
so
they can learn to help each other and love.. so dont worry...the kids
are fine.. its the adults that want to calm them and program them and
stifle thierabilitys to be creative thinkers that need help///
Now you can believe that was God or my self speaking to me..I was
awestruck with his answeras i cant even think like that..andthought
it
was odd i was taking the trash out when i had the reveleastion..
So my son whos now 30 called me about a month ago..hes had a complex
as
he wet to LD school and was looked at aaas dexlexic andso they tret
kids
like that as slow learners.. hes actually smart and creative and make
props to ern a income..and always has like10 rojects in the works,,,,
he
was able o complete a film andplay in bands andseems to be dealing
with
it. but had a complex as i neer went past 8th grade and was expelled
from school when I drew a picture in art cleass whenthe others where
doing Florals.. my prinicipal said Tom ive only expelled on other guy
in
my life..- Mark Farner of grand funk rialroad..in flint
michigan,,,and
hes done pretty good..
I wanted to play musc so i shook his hand and said youll never regret
this..andi Must sayd i havent eiether as life is so short.. and for
me i
feel ive had the best ride i could ak forand metsome of the coolist
peple on earth in my lifetime..so no compalints.
I wish i could talk less and write better but whats cool is i feel
many
people need o know they are not alone..
so My son called me the other day all excited and pumped up.. he said
Dad !!! Steven Speilberg was diagnosed as dexlexic and said hes had
trouble reading and writing al hs life....therea you tube vide where
hes interbviewed and so... being that hes like one ou r Top fave
directors ofall time..we thaouht how cool is that??
as in my life ive noticed that add people seem to havea real
sensitivity to life and art and things aroundthem like visuals,
audio,
amdeven actile things like smells an tastes... so I feel they are
special andin tough..
I also see that now schoools see the same and offer school in areas
that
peple want to pursue liekart music , film and things versus just the
basics... i would have gladly stayed but I wannted to get out and gig
and play music and record..i did go back without credits and took a
super8mm film class however i coud notafford much film so there are
no
films in my possesion from my biggest film accomplishment was i shota
dem Tape for my friend asa smith who wanted to get into news
broadcasting on a mag striped sound camera kodak,,that 1971-72
period..He got into news and became the TODAY shows consumer advocate
over 20 years at NBC 30 Rockefeller plaza and we are still good
friends.. as he also took the 1st photos of me whenI played in Johnny
and the hurricanes at age 17-18..
So we both got some great breaks...
so I believe its GOd , family and friends,, that get us through
anything..and im happy to say many on moppe have helpped me greatly
overall my falls and tumbles and i thank you so much and hope i dont
make to many upset with my bad speelling and grammar
its art my eyes are bad so i dont look at the screen.. i just
type..and
part..i dont like to type///
the people that have helped and mentored me have been some of the
most
awesome people i could ever imagine meeting..soim very lucky i
knowand
all i can think is Gods teaching me so maybe i can hel others ..
thats
what i hope.. but considering all my flubs well i am just as
surprised
as you may e i can do anything....! LL:)
have great weekend and buy my stuff..:)
