Giving a Place for a Fellow Writer: Hamilton Wade

   From a friend Wendy Ewurum:

Awakening Olivia North is a love story... tender, romantic, and sensual. It also says a lot about life and how we should all strive to get back to the true essence of who we are.

Outwardly, Olivia North looked the happily married woman. Her children continually made her proud, and her husband had indeed provided the kind of lifestyle and financial security most women could only dream of. Few of her friends could understand what needs she may have beyond the beautiful house, the cars and the apartment on the Sunshine Coast. Yet there was something quietly missing… a sense of partnership and intimacy, and had been for a great many years.

Emptiness engulfed Olivia after her youngest daughter Lucy moved out of the house to university. With no regrets or thoughts of resentment, Olivia walked away from her marriage, reaching out for emotional support from her brother, his wife, and her daughters. Olivia took stock of her financial situation, embracing an uncertain future with faith everything would fall into place.

Descending the companionway steps to get her mobile phone, she saw the cook busy preparing dinner. The mince was in a large pan on the galley stove, and he had finely sliced onion and garlic on the cutting board. She hugged and kissed him as she passed to and from the aft cabin, saying she would make a quick call to her girls while he made the boat smell so yummy.

Sitting comfortable on the swim step, she was pleasantly surprised that both Sally and Lucy answered their telephones. The must have recognized the call as being from Thailand, and as she hadn’t been calling anywhere near as often as expected, they didn’t want to miss an opportunity to see how things were in Phuket.  Sally had looked thought all the pictures, and especially close at the ones her mother had taken of Andrew.

“Mum, I think I can see what Lucy has been saying. Looking at his eyes, I can understand it when you say Andrew is a gentle and caring man. It shows mum.”

Olivia loved this softening of Sally towards Andrew Walker. Sally had been protective, wary, and not at all caught up in the romantic notion of a holiday in another country with a man she herself had never met. Things were changing.  Lucy, on the other hand, never questioned her mother’s decision. She sensed something about Andrew from the moment they met, and she wholeheartedly approved. She was the romantic of the family. She too had loved the pics and had been back to look at them many times.

“Mum, that Meridien resort in Khao Lak was a romantic paradise. I adored it and you must have had such a nice time there. Have you fallen in love mum?”

That question interrupted Olivia’s thoughts completely. How could she answer Lucy when she wasn’t sure she had the answer herself?  She hesitated a little before saying a word.

“Mum, I’m waiting!”

“Don’t do this to your poor mother. I’m sitting on the back of the boat a few hundred meters off the beach. Andrew is down below cooking lasagna, and the sky is becoming the most beautiful shade of pink. To be honest sweetheart, all I can say is that I am having the most wonderful holiday and I don’t even want to think about this dream coming to an end.”

“Oh My God Mum. I’m crying tears of joy for you. I love you and I love that you guys are having such a romantic time.”

Olivia too had tears in her eyes and saying goodbye to Lucy, reached for the towel she had folded to sit on. Cradling her face in the towel, drying her tears, she sat there looking out over the water as she thought more about Lucy’s question. Yes, she and Andrew definitely shared something very deep. Still, neither of them had mentioned the word love. In a multitude of ways, the word itself seemed superfluous. Emotions were not words, and it was difficult to use words to describe or explain emotions.

I'm an Australian,  the product of a conventional upbringing, and marriages to a couple of very different, yet extraordinary women. My life has comprised the normal range of failures and successes, and continues to be a wonderful and enlightening journey.I've lived and worked in numerous places around the world, including Australia, Thailand, Malaysia, the United States, and India. I continue to divide my time between Thailand and Australia.

End of Century Based on General George Washington and E. G. White Visions and Scripture

   Let me share about my own interpretation of General George Washington vision which is related to the future of USA.

   General George Washington Vision: "Presently I heard a voice saying, 'Son of the Republic, look and learn,' while at the same time my visitor extended her arm eastwardly. I now beheld a heavy white vapor at some distance rising fold upon fold. This gradually dissipated, and I looked upon a strange scene. Before me lay spread out in one vast plain all the countries of the world -- Europe, Asia, Africa, and America.

   Interpretation: A heavy white vapor at some distance rising fold upon fold in the east is the band/union written in Zechariah 11: 14.
   It is me and I believe I am. I have sinned too much and now I repented and want to  do what I have not done and make any of my mistakes right, like some of my blog posts (including this one) which were just my thoughts/opinion but did not realize it were.
   There should be one coming, from the east, as written in the Scripture and the vision of General George Washington.
  Ellen G. White has also vision it as the midnight cry in her first Vision.

   General George Washington Vision: "I saw rolling and tossing between Europe and America the billows of the Atlantic, and between Asia and America lay the Pacific. 'Son of the Republic,' said the same mysterious voice as before, 'look and learn.'

   "At that moment I beheld a dark, shadowy being, like an angel floating in mid-air, between Europe and America, dipping water out of the ocean in the hollow of each hand. He sprinkled some upon America with his right hand, while with his left hand he cast some on Europe.
   Immediately a dark cloud raised from these countries and joined in mid-ocean. For a while it remained stationary, and then moved slowly westward, until it enveloped America in its murky folds. Sharp flashes of lightning passed through it at intervals, and I heard the smothered groans and cries of the American people.

   Interpretation: This is the Al Qaeda attack on twin towers.

   General George Washington Vision: "A second time the angel dipped water from the ocean, and sprinkled it out as before. The dark cloud was then drawn back to the ocean, in whose heaving billows it sank from view.

   Interpretation: USA defeated Al Qaeda and sank Osama Bin Laden in the sea/ocean.

   General George Washington Vision: "At this the dark, shadowy angel turned his face southward, and from Africa I saw an ill-omened spectre approach our land. It flitted slowly over every town and city. The inhabitants presently set themselves in battle array against each other.
   As I continued looking, I saw a bright angel, on whose brow rested a crown of light, on which was traced the word "Union," bearing the American flag, which he placed between the divided nation, and said, 'Remember ye are brethren.' Instantly the inhabitants, casting from them their weapons, became friends once more and united around the National Standard.

   Interpretation: I believe this time is the time the ill-omened spectre made the inhabitants of America set themselves in battle array against each other.
   If it is so, then, it is the measurement from which the Americans (and the rest of the world) can be sure of the end of the century.
    And, that also exactly means it is the time to love one another or else there will be no more peace and harmony.

   Yes, it is absolutely the time to end hatred, bloodshed, war and politics and live together in love - sharing needs and those that can be so that there is an end of class and poverty.
    After all, we are all brothers and sisters!

   We see in the vision that it is not the spectre or the Devil that tell them to set themselves in battle array against each other, though it may try to deceive them to hate one's own fellow human. It is in their choice whether to be thoughtless and heartless or be wise and love one another.
   So, Americans, should beware of their minds and choice, so that the Devil cannot deceive them and sow hatred and bloodshed in their mind. That way they all can get free of troubles from making it.

   General George Washington Vision: "And again I heard the mysterious voice saying, 'Son of the Republic, look and learn.' At this the dark, shadowy angel placed a trumpet to his mouth and blew three distinct blasts; and taking water from the ocean, he sprinkled it upon Europe, Asia, and Africa. Then my eyes beheld a fearful scene: from each of these countries arose thick, black clouds that were joined into one.
   And throughout this mass there gleamed a dark red light by which I saw hordes of armed men, who, moving with the cloud, marched by land and sailed by sea to America, which country was enveloped in the volume of the cloud. And I dimly saw these vast armies devastate the whole country and burn the villages, towns, and cities that I beheld were springing up.
   As my ears listened to the thundering of the cannon, clashing of swords, and the shouts and cries of millions in mortal combat, I heard again the mysterious voice saying, 'Son of the Republic, look and learn.' When the voice had ceased, the dark, shadowy angel placed his trumpet once more to his mouth and blew a long and fearful blast.

   "Instantly a light as of a thousand suns shone down from above me, and pierced and broke into fragments the dark cloud which enveloped America. At the same moment the angel, upon whose head still shone the word "Union," and who bore our national flag in one hand and a sword in the other, descended from the heavens, attended by legions of white spirits. These immediately joined the inhabitants of America, who I perceived were well-nigh overcome, but who immediately taking courage again, closed up their broken ranks and renewed the battle.
   Again, amid the fearful noise of the conflict, I heard the mysterious voice saying, 'Son of the Republic, look and learn.' As the voice ceased, the shadowy angel for the last time dipped water from the ocean and sprinkled it upon America. Instantly the dark cloud rolled back, together with the armies it had brought, leaving the inhabitants of the land victorious.

   Interpretation: After the time of the Union, Europe, Asia and Africa will fight America until they are almost completely defeated but the Union will come from Heaven with legions of Angels and saved them.

   General George Washington Vision: "The scene instantly began to fade and dissolve, and I at last saw nothing but the rising, curling vapor I at first beheld. This also disappearing, I found myself once more gazing upon the mysterious visitor, who, in the same voice I had heard before, said, 'Son of the Republic, what you have seen is thus interpreted: Three great perils will come upon the Republic.
   The most fearful is the third, passing which the whole world united shall not prevail against her. Let every child of the Republic learn to live for his God, his land, and the Union.' With these words the vision vanished, and I started from my seat, and felt that I had seen a vision wherein had been shown me the birth, progress, and destiny of the United States."

   Truly, we are standing in such a time that we need or our only option is to love one another as Jesus Christ the only Begotten Son of God tells us, so that we all can be free from making troubles and end time destruction by our own hands. That will keep everything in the hands of God while increasing our treasure/reward in His eternal kingdom.

Lyrics: I Am Just a Beggar of Your Love

   I am the moon and you are the sun.
   I cannot shine without your light of love.
   Nobody can see me without your love in me.
   I am just a lump of dust in a dark place.
   I am blind without your light and I'll stumble.

       Please, shut not to me your light of love, my beloved Father.
       Let me not shiver to dead in the cold darkness.
       The evil king rules with so a cruelty in this dark place.
       I need you like a heart beat, my Lord.
       Love me always with your light, my God.

   I am just a beggar of your love.
   I will die the day you give me no love.
   None has the love I need but you.
   Honestly, your love is all my blood and life.
   My life begs for your love every count of time.

     Daily, feed me with your bread of love.
     Care for me like a baby for I am your baby, O Lord, my Father my God.
     Awake me in the light of your love when I fall asleep.
     You are all I hope and got, and I am all nothing without you.



   NB: I love to write not only writings but lyrics and would be glad to work with others. Anyone who want to work with me, feel free to inbox me for work.
   Let us benefit the world in the way we can and work to prosper it but according to God our Father in Heaven. He will help us if we are according to Him, for He love the world and we can see it in Jesus Christ.
   In fact, He wanted it, and we only have to go His way.
