*4*And*travelled’*to*space*so*I*could*be


How about this: If you were to get on my virgin ship, called *getonthebuswithgus*, take flight and pierce through the atmosphere into space, picture your experience in that moment. Being surrounded by the space that is called space, and the universe that doesn't boast or brag or kill, but that just is... and in that being nothing other than itself you could, like myself, be cast into wonder at the magnificence that is the perspective of millions of worlds within this galaxy which is one of millions of galaxies within the universe. In that Armageddon moment when your feet leave the ground and as you are thrust into orbit, you glance back to earth in unreality. You realize that we are such very small ant-like beings occupying minute space in the greater abyss that is humbly referred to as space and that that your once planet is only one single planet amongst a billion of other planets.  That you could fit 144 earths into one stretch of a diameter of the Sun. That we still think nothing of throwing a cigarettes out the window, raising a fist of contempt to our young governors, and a middle finger to the one who made it plain to us through creation that He gave us life. The following person came out of the time spent in space, searching my inner being and exploring this soul and spirit. Like space, it was a dark, cold, lonely place. What came out of the ashes of space was remarkable.

Rather be cast into wonder, than held back by belief or restricted by religion.

Excerpt from "The Gospel According To Me". Thethemas1@gmail.com is my new name, a name stumbled upon through the journey of finding me, again, and where I fit into the present world. This is now, at the end of the season in the desert and not a half-decade ago (as an innocent and defenseless baby seal as the cool cats of the music scene once perceived me to be). This is my working name now sailing into the future as I blossom from season to season, from the dry arid desert of preparation and testing into the current phase of sewing and sewing and sewing and seeing the promises written on my heart and the promising seedlings sprout up from under the roots of secure identity and fertile soil. Then into a legend oak, where the canopy of a tree is merely representing what has been prepared and planted and planned for a long time in the process of the roots which runs wide and far and truly underground for a half-decade. That these roots are supporting this amazing feat of creation and offer support and nourishment for the entire tree as they extend into its psychic reach of what it can BE. Perspective is undeniable. I wish this very same thing for each of you. I pray for growth and prosperity*

Man Knows Best
Nothing new in the universe nothing knew we can converse
But it’s only the hungry that end up in first
Up all night screaming hard at the one that I have loved
What you resist will always persist

To love and be loved is to risk your life, is to forsake all else, is to defy your death
To design your world is to breathe in your day, is to walk up to the wall and write your name down
To buy and sell hearts as well you deceive your boss and try find anything out there you can to
Replace your fear not to wink in the dark where no one hears your tears. This is the downfall of man.
But man knows ‘best’



You’ve been forgiven, so come out of the prison. For too long that iron door you closed years ago has been shut tight. Be broken off and that cover of failure, self-doubt, insecurity & spiritual darkness & dryness will be tossed aside & you will stay free.

Full of confidence. Self-assured beliefs and a bright, full future of serving my creator with a passion and an undivided heart attitude. Someone once told me the path of the righteous is like the first gleam of dawn, shining ever brighter till the full day of light. But the way of the wicked is like deep darkness. They don’t even know what makes them stumble.

There is a big difference between being shy & being insecure. My task is to move out of the latter and rather be strong in the former. I have a beautiful talent bestowed to me. Why do I doubt it? I have had many disappointments in musical life because it hasn’t been the right thing at the right time. I have spent way too much time in Bashville Bay. Stand up for what you believe and back it up with intention. Change what you believe you should learn. Don’t negotiate with anyone when it comes to your trade and your soul. Have goals. But if the expectations are not met, accept that and learn the message to earn the passage.
It’s right to be faithful with something small. Even more righteous to sew into what you’ve been given in this subtle life. Decide what you’re prepared to die for and hold onto that with everything you’ve got.
You need to understand love. She is an amazing circle with heaps of time for you. She possesses a natural charisma and natural confidence. But also shy and humble and demands attention. She has developed a sense of responsible living and has an underdeveloped sense of timing. Someone told me all is fair in love and war. I love her and she loves me and now and tomorrow in the most different ways. You need to understand love and you need to love understanding. If knowledge is the fountain of life, then understanding is the spring that runs beneath the fountain.
Love, she is sister, husband, mother, wife, best man, coach, lover and lord. Why become the love you’ve seen a hundred times on big wide flat screens. Respond to your fountain of emotion and affection in the most true and sincere way. Choose your love. Love who you are and choose your love. Fight against what you don’t love. Is the opposite of love hate or is it laziness? For me I am a stress free dealer. I accept where I’ve come from and love where I am. There could be more money, more things, more freedom, more life, more destinations but I guess there will never be enough cash in the bank, people at your birthday party or bling on your car. Shine, so nothing else has to. Someone once told me if I run from GOD then I will have to pay the fare to get back on track. And did I pay the fare? Yes. But trust me it’s not worth it- you may not even get where you were running to in the first place. Denial is temporary. Everyone says yes in the end and for me I know now again that is what I’ll do. Everyone says yes in the end. 


Ashes to ashes and dawn till dusk.
If I have one wish to see you smile to see you smile.
When I pass out that day I hope you smile I hope you laugh and see the trail of seeds I’ve sewn into eternity.
Now you take the reigns and love yourself and love yourself and love another.
Ashes to ash and dusk till dawn.
Look straight ahead and love yourself and love another into eternity.


THIS LIFE
I’m gonna pray thru this life
I’m gonna pray thru this season you’re taking me in
I’m gonna pray thru this life
I’m gonna make that change you want me to be
Don’t ever think that I’m gonna runaway again
‘cos I know you’ll chase me down if it’s the last thing you do

I’m gonna sing that new song you put in my heart
I’m gonna add that difference you called me to be
And if you say go I’m running out that door so fast
‘cos I know you’ll back me up if it’s the last thing you do

And thru it all you still loved me
And thru it all I am changed forever


Accept the past. Pledge to the future. Work. And see the doors open and close. God sends the perfect storm. It renews inside and motivates outside. God’s kindness leads to repentance. I’m a young man needing to be successful because I’m driven and needing to be freed from things that hold me back because I’m addicted to purpose. But although I’m also addicted to things that hurt my relationships and body, I am unafraid of death. Sometimes afraid of LIFE.
