Human Spirit

Sunday, June 27th, 2010

Is the human spirit a useful fiction or a manifest reality? Such a question strikes close to the fundamental meaning of human existence. Does the belief in the existence of the human spirit affect the electrochemical operation of the brain? Does the electrochemical flow system comprising the human brain give rise to an energy field? Might not this electrochemical flow energy field comprise the human spirit such as it is made manifest during life?

These question and other writings comprise the “Spirit” category http://peaceengine.com/blog/category/spirit/ of this blog.

A Line in the Sands of Time

Saturday, June 19th, 2010

Saturday, June 19, 2010, 6:48 AM, 63 degrees, Woodbury, Minnesota, at 6:00 AM I watched the sun rise from a few degrees east of northeast into a Minnesota morning’s clear blue sky. A few minutes ago the sky began filling with clouds.

I decided to blog into my computer instead of hand writing into my journal. In terms of blog time as it relates to real time, this post delineates a shift in focus from what exists below this post and, therefore, further back in time.

This feature of one post appearing below and also further back in time while another post appearing above and also further ahead in time happens because that is how a WordPress blog is programmed. This need to be upside down with respect to time arises because, when the reader selects some category to catch up on, the last thing they want to have to do is to scroll to the bottom of the selected category blog.

Public Health Nurse Corps

Sunday, June 6th, 2010

I support the creation of the Public Health Nurse Corps (CORPS). The CORPS recruits eighteen to twenty-one year old men and women who have graduated from High School and are willing to sign a contract making them a VOLUNTEER in the CORPS.

A VOLUNTEER receives a two year education. Tuition and books are paid for by the CORPS. Additional income may be earned in various on-the-job work experiences in nursing homes, in home health care situations, hospice care, community service, Meals on Wheels delivery, and so forth. Upon graduation that VOLUNTEER works two years full-time in some local community public health care facility, nursing home, and so forth. At the completion of this four year duty cycle the VOLUNTEER enters the regular workforce debt free (of their CORP education).

A VOLUNTEER may then re-enlist for another four year duty cycle (two more years education and two more years full-time work) in the Public Health Nurse Corps.
