How do you Love the Unlovable

491993392_3f3c386f3a_m My life use to resemble a chainsaw with a broken cut-off switch. I constantly buzzed with the thunder of a truck missing a muffler. Jumping from one thought to another in milliseconds. In addition, the foreign jargon I called speech, in reality was the soundtrack of a psychopathological lunatic. Sadly, the Dragon was a spirit without love, a nomadic appliance, a self-destructive, all-consuming bowl of mindlessness.

Being lost in illusions as I refer to it defines a person whom lack self-love. Often they remind us of a disruptive force driven by ‘slow suicidal’ actions (i.e., substance abuse, addictions, ego-driven, constant worrying). However, without shame, it was fear that denied me the ability to love myself. The demonized circus (mind) slowly and with precision was killing me. Sadly, however, with religious conviction, I sought its companionship over and over again.

High Flying Acts of Self-Destruction

To recite my fanatical escapades illustrated with clinical depression, substance abuse and risky behaviors would appear to create excuses. However, as pertinent as these factors were to my dissension, they receive a pardon with just cause. Subsequently, my spirit long sequestered, painted a silhouette of fear inside me as a teen.  I cannot pinpoint the fear origination, but my spiritual restoration provided a pathology.  2656844158_f3390e49c4_m

I never understood love.  My conception of love was ill designed from adolescence. Regardless, however, this foreign agent (ego) bent on spiritual espionage, persuaded my divine implosion. Unfortunately, I was unable to uncover the covert operative before near total self-destruction. The inability to see love as a “verb” nearly cost me my life.

We operate from two emotions, love or fear. Our actions easily become translatable when we understand this premise. For instance, we cannot pain ourselves or  another person and describe it as love. Regardless of blamable factors (i.e., addiction, selfishness, envy) love is an action that “never hurts.” As another example, when love ones do bizarre behaviors, irresponsible self-destructive acts, this is fear, it is a call for love and help. Absolutely, they are afraid and they do not know how to say it or save themselves.

Fear, the Great Deceiver

With that in mind, until they rid themselves of fear, tsunamis of unthinkable events will create mass self-destruction and repercussions. Our only thoughts, “How could they do this to me?” & “How could they do it to themselves?” Without question, it is the ultimate cry for help, an act of slow suicide is more appropriate. As we guess, fear kill without reason or just cause. It has nothing to do with the victim personally. It is a child, teen or adult crying out, “I am scared and I hate myself.”

The Dragon recites this account from personal experiences. Thus, it is not a formula or antidote one swallow easy. The brave walk this path; you cannot sneak into spiritual restoration lacking self-love. It is muddy-waters for sure and the clever individuals deepens into its quicksand. You cannot fake it (Love); it eventually cries out for help.

Women of Shekinah, Naked and Not Ashamed.

I am going to say much without saying anything. If you are a close friend then you understand what can not be said. You are aware of my legal situation and know anything that I say could be used against me. Normally, I would have posted by 7:59am. I apologized for being tardy.

The Invisible Dragon accurately and truthfully records his personal and spiritual journey. The path away from the conditioned mind of egotism, selfishness and a host of survival techniques that made me imbalanced. The Dragon does not look upon the path for pitfalls or enlightenment. Its a path.

“Naked and Not Ashamed”

I requested a moment from First Lady Tracey Wright this past Sunday to speak to the Women of Shekinah. A group of women who privately I adore. Its the only group that gives me love and which I found myself comfortable enough to cry with. I have men who privately will do anything for me, however, to date; if my memory serves me correctly, one brother has cried in front of me privately in 25 years. When I become emotional with men, some time there after I think, maybe I should not have done it.

Its hard to cry to men. They don’t get it naturally. (That’s another story for a later date.)

My presentation centered on forgiveness and the power of prayer. I had come to throw myself upon their unconditional love. A love that I feel is established for my family and I. After a brief emotional moment explaining my reasoning it collapsed into a blitz of praying and worshiping. A true delight, however, this delight would have been repelled just a few months ago.

Experiences developed who I am. Looking at them in a negative or positive way creates duality for me. In which I become attached and trapped in a orgy of mental interpretations. Good or not good. There both the same, both exist for me while I am here. Its the contract of life for a celestial being hosted inside this temporary body.  I accept the bad and the good. However I know which are illusions. They are not my true nature, nevertheless; I must live with them on occasions.


Void of my worst days,

how would I know God?

If never down how do I rise.

Holy Spirit, what say you teach me?

Tears, seeds; true nature blossom.

Inside womb of God, molded by fire

Labor pains of new life

Terribly painful.

I cry.

A child must be born.

Women of Shekinah

Thank you so much, may God continue to bless your leadership and members,

I have known Tracey Wright since 1987 She has become a woman of inclusion.

The group has not a shield one must conquer to receive Love.

The strength of the group lies with its core members…
