Surface Propaganda

I was explaining to some friends that we often see memes or read blogs that represent surface propaganda. I'll explain what this is from what I know of it.

For instance, you go to a country fair and you see, on the surface, a lot of exciting things. You're enjoying your visit. That's all you do. You take in the luxury of the day, with all the fun and excitement, without knowing what's going on behind the scenes. You don't see the problems that are being resolved or if they're being resolved. You don't know the cost of running the fair or the stress it takes for you to enjoy your visit. You come back, every day the country fair is in town, and you think it's a utopia. You think, why can't everyone have a fair like this?

Now magnify that country fair into a state fair or world fair. Many more issues to resolve on a bigger scale. On the surface, everything's wonderful but beneath the surface there are tons of things being done to make it seem perfect. Yet, in that perfection, things still will go wrong and on a larger scale.

However, not everything will remain on the surface. People will see what's going on and may become disillusioned. Furthermore, whether a small or large event, you will never please everyone every time; people will gripe for whatever reason.

Six years of working for Disney taught me this about surface propaganda. It taught me that not everything is as it seems. It taught me to check the facts - above and below the surface. Life also taught me to be careful about feeling desperate and following anyone offering utopia. As the saying goes: if it's too good to be true, it normally is. There are plenty of Pied Pipers singing their tune. We know how the rats ended in that story, as well as the children.

Elections: Is Our Future Pre-ordained?

With the U.S. election for President, and knowing what I know, it's often similar to knowing the writer of a book and getting to read it before others. It's like knowing the ending, but not being allowed to say anything, which could spoil the story or ending for others. It's like listening to all who read it, and declare their feelings about it, but knowing it won't change the ending outcome. It's similar to watching them getting closer to the ending, sensing the direction it's taking, but they don't really know. Or they know, in their heart, the outcome but wish it weren't true. Or, maybe their glad of it, depending on their programming.

Here's a clue: what I know about the future is that it's a result of what we do today. What I know about today is our hardcore programming which is all part of our universal energy and our past. Maybe I should call it our addictions. Things that we refuse to change within us, that keep us doing the same thing over and over. Because we don't know any better, when we should, or we know better but still refuse to change or cannot change. After all, can a Leopard change its spots?

Our individual programming designs our collective future. Good or bad, we write it. But, I'm a believer that, sometimes, we can turn the tide with awareness. That's why we see things that look bad and try to change it. That's why, sometimes, a prediction can be changed due to that educated awareness. Yet, like that story ending, some things won't change because it's not meant to be. Similar to when I told a co-worker, over 25 years ago, she would have a baby girl on a new moon and she did.

If our future is pre-ordained, it's our free will that's writing it. Along with that free will may be divine intervention. All part of the collective thoughts in the universe. Right now, all I'm reading on the internet is a lot of predictions with different outcomes. That made me wonder if they're still reading the book and guessing at the ending. 

Why Do We Need An Audience?

One of my friends mentioned that some people appear to need an audience to prove their worth to God. Among other things, it seemed so fake. I tend to agree. Maybe someone, who is only acting, would require an audience. Are they looking for answers, approval or adoration?

I was taught that it's important to meditate in quiet, so we not only hear but feel any answer to our prayer. If we are surrounded by a lot of noise (audience), how will we know if there's an answer? Also, I was told by guidance that God can hear our thoughts; there's no need to pray verbally.

This was also the advice given in Matthew 6:5-8 - "When you pray, don't be like the hypocrites who love to pray publicly on street corners and in the synagogues where everyone can see them. I tell you the truth, that is all the reward they will ever get. But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you. And when you pray, do not keep on babbling like pagans, for they think they will be heard because of their many words. Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him."

Is it any wonder that many say they feel they've lost their way? Are they only congregating, in large masses, for a feel-good moment? After all, we can go to a party and get a similar feeling. It's no wonder they're still feeling empty, lost or scattered inside, because they're not getting it. They're not taking the time to pray in quiet as Matthew advised. Besides, without this quiet, how can anyone sense if any message is coming from a true loving source, answering our prayers, or from one who's only appeasing our egos for their personal gain?

Why have we walked away from quiet meditating to needing an audience? Questions that need higher answers come into quiet minds faster. One must wonder, can the noise be deliberately concealing what our hearts should be feeling?

God, What is Sin?

I know this blog will be controversial but please bare with me to the end. It's difficult to keep it short, because of explaining this insight, but I did what I could.

To continue, the definition of sin is: "an immoral act considered to be a transgression against divine law." With so many atrocities around the world, what is sin to our Creator? After eons of learning, and understanding, has anything changed? Are these man's laws and not truly his laws? The only law he ever said to me was the Golden Rule. Easy enough? Maybe.

Anyway, due to my questioning nature, a long time ago, while meditating, I asked God about sin and judging us humans. He said, "I understand far more about life than you. Most humans see life on a perspective of a ground level but I see it as one who watches from a rooftop. Because of this, I want you to know that I don't judge you, you judge you. Your feeling of guilt within you will judge you. In answer to your question, it is the negativity each being carries within them. That is the true sin. Can someone who does something in their innocence or culture, doing it without guilt, be guilty? When someone else comes along and implies that guilt should be felt, but they reject their beliefs, should they be made to feel guilt? There comes a point of awareness, when you'll understand this. It's not another's beliefs but yours. Your beliefs may be there to guide and protect you. Humans have the ability to reason and things will need to address that reasoning or you, with your free will, may walk away without guilt. I will check their soul and know their truth and they will judge themselves. Then we will decide the next course of action, if necessary."

We proceeded to discuss the variables in what beings consider right and wrong. Most of it was showing me things through emotions and images but I will give you a few examples.

If an animal kills for food, does it feel guilty? No. Why should it? It wants to survive. It will even kill another's offspring or their own, if necessary, and for many reasons, with no guilt involved. Humans can think it's a sin but they won't.

Humans have guilt due to control. Someone wanting to subject their beliefs, morals, views or opinions to control themselves or another. They may feel guilt for doing it or not. For instance, a person decides killing an animal is a sin but a meat eater does not. They may be judging each other but they are not feeling any guilt about their decisions. Why should God?

Also, what if humans eat another human to survive? People will place their guilt onto them for doing it but what if it was necessary? If any humans, who did this, came to God and God saw what they did and why, God said it would be only their guilt, if any, that would judge them. Many things are investigated in order to fully understand.

In other words, he said sin is within us due to our knowing. A child hits a sibling but does not know it's a sin until told. A dog bites another dog and is trained not to, but it doesn't feel guilt for what it's done before knowing. A man rapes another human because it's their culture and does not consider it a sin until they're educated and accept another's opinion. That doesn't mean he will accept someone's opinion or feel guilt afterwards. Women abort because they feel it's to save themselves or others, whether mentally or physically. They feel justified in their decision. They do not feel guilt no matter how many times they are told they should feel guilt. Once a culture killed any diseased or deformed new born with no guilt, because the crime would have been in letting them live. God and his council may not see it as killing or murder due to a higher understanding.

As a person of reason, all this made sense to me. After all, like Job, who am I to argue with God's truth? In Job 40:2 God says, "Will the person who finds fault with the Almighty correct him? Will the person who argues with God answer him?" When all these scenarios are presented, he would know these reasons. He will know if we are judging ourselves for our actions; for what we feel is a sin. This is affirmed in 1 Samuel 16-7 when God said to Samuel, "Do not consider his appearance or his height, for I have rejected him. The Lord does not look at the things people look at. People look at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart."

Lastly, what if, in his higher knowing, he saw a bigger picture, that we never considered, and he washed away our guilt - our sin - because of it?

One Creator Soul with Many Names?

I once said I felt I was more agnostic. I believed in a Creator even though (at that time) I had no proof of it. It just resonated. It didn't matter how many names it was called, or by who, it was what it was.

Now, after my life's experiences, I have proof of it but I've also learned that people have to walk the walk to prove it to themselves. Yet, isn't that the way we humans are anyway? We have to "see" it to believe it.

That's why I decided to give the steps for others to prove it to themselves, if they want, as well as proving eternity. The steps are there but you have to take them. No one can walk for you.

And, for anyone thinking otherwise, as the saying goes: put your money where your mouth is. ;)

Humanity: Erosion and Demise

I've often heard or read about the similarities of certain people throughout history; for instance, Mithra and Jesus. In which, I've reminded people that it's not unusual if a huge task is that important. Something, of greater importance, may be continued throughout time. Especially, if the greater importance is lead by the greater knowing of eternal life. Because, as they say: if at first you don't succeed, try, try again. So, this would make sense why there are certain similarities in good or bad historical human lifetimes. Human desire and programming can create this, over and over again, if necessary, just to get the job done. Whatever that job may be.

I've, also, mentioned to people, there's good and bad in everything, based on our concept of good and bad, because higher knowing doesn't always see it our way. However, in these good and bad human lifetimes, we often do battle over our beliefs. These beliefs may sway one way and back to another over time. It's a constant tug of war with humanity. Both sides equally pursuing their cause without necessarily understanding the path they're on or its long-range outcome. It's just programming in their soul and they feel they have to do what they have to do.

This blog picture, I took in 2009, is the Badlands, which shows the erosion of the mountains with wind and water. This made me think about the effects of human erosion. If no one concedes or bends their will, our humanity, over time, will erode as the wind and water does over our land. Eventually, what will be left to fight over? We may create other places to exist but what happens when our minds are completely eroded and there is no longer any desire to exist much less create new life?

I was taught a long time ago that our thoughts are powerful and we create and destroy with them. Is this why we're creating mental illnesses? Is this why we're creating senility or Alzheimers? To destroy ourselves so we no longer desire to create? What then? Back into a void of nothing? To shut down or escape the painful memories?

Will both sides never yield, never change their programming, until there's a final destruction? Are we no more than mountains battled by the elements, eventually turning to sand and blown away into the air? Will we land and start a new mountain or will we just continue to blow around without direction because we finally lost our minds?

Psychopaths: A Depraved and Indifferent Future?

Strange meditation this morning. I felt this was a warning. Hopefully, forewarned is forearmed but from what I've seen of human programming, it takes an "Act of God" to change things. Let me know how you feel about it. 

----------

"One day, on this current path, humans will show no empathy and be morally and socially disconnected, due to demanding their wants, and not wanting to discriminate against other's wants because of it. They will witness murders and shrug their shoulders, because there's no law against it. They will witness a myriad of violence and depravity for the same reason, because murdering people is their 'want.' After all, why are we demanding our wants but don't understand the path it leads towards other's demanding their wants? Where does one draw the line in what's right for one but not another?"

----------

Next time, we see something on the news or social media, that we don't like, or hate, just, apathetically, say these words: because that's what they wanted. Try it. I did it a few times and it's a mind blow experience. Wow!

It made me feel that it will be a future world of psychopaths: people who may appear outwardly normal but have “moral depravity” or “moral insanity,” in that they seemed to possess no empathy, no sense of ethics, or of the rights of other people.

It would not be a world "run by psychopaths" because everyone will be indifferent. In a psychopath's mind, they don't have feelings of right or wrong? Est id quod est!

Why Do Relationships End?

There are times, in my life, that I can relate to what it feels like to be the American government (or any government). I often wonder who to trust and where to place my loyalty. I've discovered nothing's permanent in any relationship. You really have to work hard on them, personal, company, or goverment, but there's no guarantees.

One day you have a friend, or companion, and the next day an enemy, or you part ways with mixed feelings. It's as if everyone has the right to an opinion until it differs from theirs. Then out comes the verbal battle gloves, harsh words, disrespect, hurt feelings and, finally, a parting of ways. Is it a setup? Did we miss the signs? Is there something more involved?

For you see, I've learned, through my life's experiences, that what I may not see, or understand, "someone" else may. Sometimes, relationships may be ended for us, especially when our loyalty for another isn't justified or we've taken a wrong turn on our path. There are those who do know what goes on behind closed doors, and, as the Native Americans say: speaks with forked tongue. It's not always the words one speaks, but what's within one's heart, that can assist in making that decision.

It may be difficult to believe, when we're going through the initial upset, but many times we have looked back and said: thank god! Could it be a clue?

Empowerment

One of my first metaphysical guides told me that he didn't want to be God for me, He wanted me to be God for me.

Which meant, he wanted me to be empowered. He wanted me to be able to answer my own questions. To know how to seek the wisdom from the universe.

To me, this was truly profound words. It resonated. Yes, believe it or not, some questions may not be answered though an internet search. This is why I teach. Some people prefer followers. I don't, I prefer students.

Fear

Everyday the news gives us things to fear. Apparently, even politics promotes fear within us by wondering who will control who over what? But, with politics, if we are honest about it, the fear is not about what's right for our country but what's right for us, and our fear of losing it or not gaining it. I want so and so to win because I want what they represent for me. Fear makes people attack and I'm seeing (reading) a lot of it, lately, because of our fear of the unknown. 

Over many years of helping people overcome things they fear, I've learned that it can be a very strong, controlling emotion and difficult to let go, especially if we're trying to do it alone. Of course, no one should have to and therein lies part of the cause of the pain we may inflict on ourselves, or others. There's no doubt that our sense of fear is due to programming, possibly eons of programming. Sometimes people use fear to control. Sometimes the fear controls us out of a current or past life memory. There are many reasons, including not wanting to be gullible either. At times, a sense of fear or dread can help protect us. It may cause us to lash out at others because of our need for self preservation. 

It's similar to putting our hand in fire and being severely burned and someone wanting us to do it again. Memory takes over and says, "that is not a good thing to do, I know it will hurt." If we don't have that experience or memory, we may not have a sense of dread to stop us. Which is why some learn from pain and some may take more than once to learn. It might take several incidents to build a strong memory in our mind/soul. If someone tries to force a hurtful experience on us, especially if we sense trouble, we may attack them in order to protect it from occurring again. We may not only yank our hand away from the fire, but punch someone for insisting we do it. ;)

However, this is a reaction based on what we see and understand in a current life. An unexplained or uncontrolled fear can become an attack on ourselves. It can become an obsession, due to a possessive emotion from past life memories, or due to being controlled by an unseen being. Which is another reason why we want to attack others. A need to lash out at anyone to deal with our fear. They become our scapegoat. If there's no scapegoat, we may become the persecuted, inside and out, by self-inflicted pain due to phobias. In politics, lashing out at another may be due to a candidate's fear of losing. In gangs, it's due to a fear of death. Fear starts a chain reaction of anger leading to more fear. Understandable. 

Which is why, as I said above, fear - or a feeling of dread - is an important part of our character. It warns us. However, too much or not enough of anything isn't good. That's what creates the painful experiences we have in life. Balance is important in anything we do or feel. Getting out of balance should also give us a warning. The road we take has many lessons. Learning to recognize that we've gone too far, either way, is one of them. We can learn from other's mistakes by being observant or we can learn from our own by not. Either way, we'll, eventually, learn what we need to, including how to recognize and deal with our fear or dread. Hopefully, controlling it instead of it controlling us. 

Can you imagine if all our fears could be put aside with one word - knowing? And in that knowing, we'll know how to react without fear and with respect. Maybe that's too easy or the answers aren't fast enough. Yet, I would think that it's better to find out why or what we fear, and deal with that, instead of projecting it onto others, causing pain and suffering, or even onto ourselves,  because of these unresolved fears. Unless living in fear is preferred. I hope not. 

Strange Symbol Dream

I had a dream this morning. In part of it, a woman was looking at the palm of her right hand and I saw a black symbol slowly forming on it, as well as raising on her skin. She, nonchalantly, says: oh my company is answering my request; they said it was approved. She seemed happy or contented over it. Then she walked away before I could ask her anything.

The only part of the symbol I could remember was similar to this picture but there was a few little things in it and by it that I couldn't make out.

After awakening, all I could think was there was NO WAY I would want a company, or anyone for that matter, that could control my mind or body like that.

Weird - right?

Mind Power: Human versus Android

I had a friend ask me once if an android could be used for mind power attacks; meaning the ability to manipulate energy and astral project thoughts. I said that I doubt it had the capabilities of a human, unless it was programmed to use this type of mind power as a human. I added that I had my doubts that this would even be a future possibility, unless humans were really that stupid. Why give an android power that can be turned against us? We know how things can backfire.

Besides, I, jokingly, said: mind power can be returned, to stop it, by reaching through the universe and pulling out its energy pack. Problem solved. 

Something else to consider is the mental and physical abilities humans have to adapt to each situation. That's a lot of programming to consider for an android. Also, even though it is often thought of as a flaw in human character, an android doesn't have emotions. This may give an android the upper hand, especially if programmed to "do no harm." Human emotions, occasionally, tend to overrule common sense. This means, humans are more apt to act irrationally and spontaneously in using mind power. In that regards, I would be more concerned with human nature abusing it.

Yet, considering everything, both can have its life force relinquished in various ways. No guarantees when it comes to life and death - anywhere. In other words, no excuses for any form of misbehaving. Eventually, all will pay the price no matter what they're recognized by - human or android.

Altered States and Mind Power

Many years ago, I was given a stern warning, by my otherworldly-metaphysical teachers, to avoid mind-altering substances, especially while working with the universe. When you want to get involved with mind power, a clear and sound mind is necessary in order to avoid deception or a takeover of one's powers.

As Mattie Ross said, in the orginal True Grit movie regarding whiskey, "I would not put a thief in my mouth to steal my brains!"

This quote resonated with me because of what I've discovered. Whether it's whiskey or any mind-altering substance, there are those elements, sitting around like hungry vultures, just waiting for a chance to take over another's life; to use another's power.

I was also advised that It's okay to enjoy life but don't drive - or meditate - under the influence. It is seriously frowned on by these teachers.

This warning reminded me of a South American Shaman who took a mind-altering substance and decided to seek out God via meditation. Bad decision on his part, because he, based on his story, was seriously reprimanded by the Creator and was told never to enter into his energy field again, in that state of mind.

This made me think of others whose minds could be entering into another's energy field, under the influence, and possibly being used for mind power attacks as well as subjecting others with a plethora of unexplained emotions. Which is why I was warned, when dealing with power, a sound mind is vital. It prevents someone from making hasty and detrimental decisions.

Lastly, a takeover can occur with a sound mind but it's often recovered faster than someone who isn't. I feel it may be why many people are often used in another form of mind-altering state to hurt someone - a dream state - via astral projection. If you aren't dreaming or recalling your dreams, this may be a form of protection; to keep your mind from being used. Ask anyone who's been there.

Who Created The Big Bang?

Below is a comment, and my response, on my 2009 video "Who Created The Big Bang?" I originally shared this conversation on Facebook (1-9-14) and I'm glad I did, because when You Tube channels are deleted, it often deletes comments that were made too. 

To continue, I'm still doing what I can to understand life and share what I can. Always open to theories to discuss whenever possible. Doing that keeps me open minded to newer and/or different possiblities. I don't profess to know everything - no intelligent person does that. Which is why I decided to share this on my blog. Maybe it will open a doorway to intelligent discussion regarding this subject.

J. Walsh - Firstly, sea life is created on its own as they have a suitible environent to grow and would evolve or grow from less advance species like bacteria, and secondly, the theory of all of the universe being created from nothing is more believable than one man being made from nothing with super human powers making everything, and thirdly, the name big bang was given to the theory when an astronomer was making fun of the theory and said it was a big bang but the name stuck!

Atomarane - Scientific "theory" has stated bacteria from space, and water here, may have created sea life and the beginning of life on earth ... taking billons of years to evolve to where we are now. 

Everything has a beginning and if we can have a hypothesis on that than why not the beginning of life elsewhere starting similar with space being it's catalyst and starting even before earth was habitable? A single cell organism dividing and dividing eventually having a more superior mind. 

As far as super human, well then, you are basing this on human potential and not other worldly, which is another theory; not everything may be earth based. Also, if you wish to know more about mind power than continue watching my teaching videos. 

My mentioning of a "big bang' was me being sarcastic but I'm sure you figured that out. Thanks for commenting.

Venting: Historical-Religious Past Lives and Psychic Attacks

Please allow me to vent because I'm really tired of hearing this off the universe (for years) that I'm Muhammed. No, not from guidance, they would know better, it's a projected thought. Now, I'm "projecting back" out of frustration and just going on the record about how I feel. Here goes...

One: Shut the hell up, and move on, because you're seriously crazy. I can see how uneducated or unaware people can become deranged with this type of mentality - especially if they too are subjected by this insanity without understanding where the thoughts or emotions are coming from.

Two: Muhammed died and he had numerous spirits share that life, many who were his tormentors. Yes, tormented like other religious prophets of the past. I know how to find any of them. People, that know me, know I know how. Deal with it!

Three: My birth name is Charlene. My original soul had many past lives that I've recorded, but I am who I am today. Deal with that too! I made a video about it for anyone who cares to see. I did this only because I was trying to figure out my psychic attacks. Nothing more. I don't live in the past.

Four: I will not go public telling people I'm someone from the past because the past is gone. So, you can stop sending that crap to me - wanting to use it as an excuse to attack me. Now you see how I deal with your insanity. Back off!

Oh, almost forgot, I'm not God either. Something else that's been projected to me in the past. I mentioned that on a video too. What next? Jesus? Abraham? Do you think I'm as crazy as you are?

Get a life!

You Know You Like Me

I thought I'd share a reply I made to someone who told me about being tired of psychic attack tormentors. Hopefully that and the rest of my blog will help others.

Reply: "No doubt. I feel the same about me after all this time. But I'm stubborn as hell. And right is right. I'm right and evil is not. So dig your heels in and fight back. Quitters never gain ground."

Yes, it's how I am and most likely how I've survived - even while helping others. I feel, as long as I'm physically able, even with my last breath, I will be a fighter. But another thing I have, besides a strong will, is my sense of humor.

In fact, I've occasionally sent somewhat humorous messages, to anyone I felt was sending tormentors to me (and others), that went something like: "Come on, you know you admire me after all this time. Admit it. You know you like me."

How could they not? I've given them a good run for their money. That takes guts and I feel I've earned their admiration. Besides, a little humor goes a long way. If nothing else works, try it. How can anyone feel like fighting if they're laughing?

However, for the best effect, try saying it the same way as Sandra Bullock in Miss Congenality (see clip).

Negating Our Intuition

I had a very enlightening conversation with Guidance/Universe this morning and they gave me a message for anyone interested. I almost decided not to share it because, to me, it's repetitive teaching. Then, I thought, we often need repetition to get the lesson.

Anyway, they said: many have been relinquishing their sixth sense abilities due to several things. It's your birthright but you keep throwing it away. For instance, being too "politically correct" or too compassionate and having it turn on you. This would be similar to walking in a lion's den thinking your compassion will keep it from attacking.

Judge not lest thee be judged is being carried too far and misconstrued or even used against you to conceal another's misdeeds. Discerning truth and acting on it is not the same as hateful behavior.

Don't be hasty in your judgment means to listen to the wisdom in the universe and not only your mental programming. Things change often. That little sense of doubt could be a warning that something is being held from you. Your "not wanting to judge" may create a mental block that keeps you from lifesaving information.

Do you think those people in California would have been set up and murdered if their intuition hadn't been ignored -  due to being concerned over political correctness? Do you think your life is of less value? Is that why you think you shouldn't be judgmental? That isn't what we meant by this saying.

Is this why you were given brains, to sit on them? You've been guided, often. However, your duty to "not judging" has begun to overrule common sense. Hopefully, you won't keep failing this lesson. It's your choice to keep negating your intuition, but you cannot blame another.

Torment and Torture?

Generally, animals aren't tormented and tortured by humans before killing them for food, even by others animals. Death is most often swift today, as well as in the days of old. Even though it's done, it's still often rare (based on overall human population) to hear about humans torturing animals, much less torturing before consumption.

However, man and woman, which are part of the "animal" species, throughout history have not always had the same consideration to their own kind. Even today, we still have some who think stoning is considered an appropriate thing to do to people, whereas most civilized societies consider it barbaric. As it should be. Is this how they kill their food sources too? Not likely.

What perverse nature some humans have within them, where they often treat these "lower life forms" with more respect then their own species? Makes one wonder. At least, it makes me wonder. Is this the nature of the beast within humans? A lack of empathy towards other humans?

I found this website (below) of medieval torture to prove my point. However, it's not only medieval times when tormenting and torturing is still employed today by anyone for any reason. All too often, I hear or read about psychic attacks, as well as continually experiencing my own because of helping others. I know the reality of them firsthand and often wonder why they continue. Why can't "they" behave? What's the purpose of this insane cruelty?

Some people say that humans are cruel by nature because they kill animals for food. I say it goes deeper than that and, like anything in life, we cannot stereotype. After all, it's pretty sad when you hear people say they care more about animals than other humans. Hmmm ... is this a reason? Maybe we should include humans in our feelings. We can start by not being cruel to one another, be more civilized, and stop blaming our food sources as a reason. 

Since, we obviously care more about them than other humans.

Important

Many people strive to be "important." It is one of those special moments in life when you suddenly realize that you are an important person to the world - your world.

Especially, when seeing this importance reflected back from the heart of a child, a friend, co-worker, family member, stranger, or elderly person.

One trusting and loving smile tells it all. The matter of importance is on many levels.
