Samhain VS Halloween
Aris Durocher
Samhain is a day that we honor those we love that have passed on. There are many ways to honor the dearly departed, it is up to each person to honor in thier way that represents their bond to their loved ones that have crossed over.
Reflecting on Halloween years ago, I arrived at the thought that Halloween is more than giving out candies to delighted children. Halloween offers a different aspect of giving.
I relected that Halloween is the one time of the year that Strangers open up thier doors to other strangers and GIVE without expecting anything in return. Any other event there is expectation attached to giving, but not Halloween. The festivities of Halloween truely represents presenting others with a treat of giving free of all expecations.
Upon Each Samhain
This is one of my favorite poems.
Upon Each Samhain
I miss you most upon each Samhain
When the boundary turns to sheer
I wait until the veil is parted
At the ending of the year.
Sweet spirit, as you walk among us
At the tolling of this eve
I see your face beyond the sunset
And hear your voice upon the breeze.
In the glowing of the candle,
From the shadow on the wall
I watch for you in every movement
And hear your footsteps in the hall.
Can you sit and spend the evening
As the portal opens wide?
Ancestral dead, I bid you welcome
Most recent dead, I pray, abide.
When you come I sense your presence
I put my hand out in the air
A moment, then, we stand united
Palm to palm while waiting there.
I miss you most upon each Samhain
When the boundary…

Happy Samhain/Halloween~ All Saints~ Souls Day
I love this time of the year. What marks Samhain/Halloween/All Souls Day/All Saints Day, as special and unique is that it is the ONLY time of the year that people open their doors to strangers. It is the one and only time of the year that people give openly without hesitation to strangers. It is a demonstration to the art of giving without a single thought of receiving back what one has given to perfect strangers. It is in turn unlike any other festivity or holiday in the human specter . No matter what one chooses to call this time of the year, it is without a doubt an act of giving with no intent to get something back. Samhain is absolutely one of my favorite times of the year ~The act of giving to perfect strangers sets up the new year ( celtic) as one of promise, hope and…

Today’s Reflection: Its not what you look at that matters is what you see
Good Morning Beautiful Peeps,
“It’s not what you look at that matters, it’s what you see.”

Some people can look beyond face value and delve into the deep interior of human souls and thoughts.
Have you ever tested yourself, your unopened gifts that you were given to you. Push and challenge yourself and don’t take all things at face value. There is always more to see!!!

Together through the different movements we are lighting the world up with a united voice that we want change, we want all people in this world to be safe, secure, healthy which will bring all peoples happiness.
When people are content and happy this will result in not just worldwide peace but it will provide new awakenings of contemporary motivational creativeness to better and benefit this world further.
The rich resources of happy minds can never be measured in its wealth and worth bringing joy to the people of this world collectively and equally.

Recognize Your Core Values- Idle No More Warriors
Good Morning Beautiful Peeps, Idle No More Warriors & Supporters. Hope everyone had a good weekend.
Recognize your core values through your deep rooted teachings. In anything we do in life we learn something or teach something to another. Every action word is a demonstration that sets a ripple of lessons though the universe coursing into a growth and maturity that interweaves and helps us realize that we are all related.
Finally people are communicating with each other and we have not only discovered we have similar struggles but we have similar interests and/or the same interests. We know realize that 98-99 percent of us have a genuine goodness in our hearts and souls towards each other. We don’t want to see poverty anywhere in this world. We don’t want to see children and people living in third world living conditions no matter what walk of life those people hail. No matter what their skin. No matter what language they may speak. We want to help them no matter what their straggler. We now know each other and understand each other.
We the people are coming together and we are putting forward a testament, a map a guidance for for this generation and for future generations to come so that all humans may be treated equal, treated with respect, with dignity. We wish and will that all peoples will live well.
Quote by: Aris of Pagan Media Bites.Com
Idle No More Warriors remember to stay peaceful, do not take ignorant baits, do not respond to the hatred of ignorance. Be harmonious when you communicate with others, stay safe and warm and Idle No More. Everyone have a great day.
