I hear reading the book of Proverbs; the chapter corresponding with the day of the month, every month and if the 30th is the last day of any month read the 30th and 31st on the 30th (-: each day reflect on what you have read … day by day … make notes … what do you think/feel Solomon meant when he *wrote his book* :-) for a year? Maybe two … I’m not quite sure, since being very much eclectic I believe the message is done when the lesson is learned 
will create awesome, miraculous changes in … self (yes) … humanity – it has been said … Let see what happens if we do 
Monday December 1st, 2008 the Journey begins – my comments are in italics, unless I make special note, but I hope that will not be too often as that is quite annoying And thank you for joining my journey, no matter when you happen to come along (-:
1 – The proverbs of Solomon the son of David, king of Israel;
2 – To know wisdom and instruction; to perceive the words of understanding;
3 – To receive the instruction of wisdom, justice, and judgment, and equity;
4 – To give subtilty to the simple, to the young man knowledge and discretion.
5 – A wise [man] will hear, and will increase learning; and a man of understanding shall attain unto wise counsels:
6 – To understand a proverb, and the interpretation; the words of the wise, and their dark sayings.
7 – The fear of the LORD [is] the beginning of knowledge: [but] fools despise wisdom and instruction.
8 – My son, hear the instruction of thy father, and forsake not the law of thy mother:
9 – For they [shall be] an ornament of grace unto thy head, and chains about thy neck.
10 – My son, if sinners entice thee, consent thou not.
11 – If they say, Come with us, let us lay wait for blood, let us lurk privily for the innocent without cause:
12 – Let us swallow them up alive as the grave; and whole, as those that go down into the pit:
13 – We shall find all precious substance, we shall fill our houses with spoil:
14 – Cast in thy lot among us; let us all have one purse:
15 – My son, walk not thou in the way with them; refrain thy foot from their path:
16 – For their feet run to evil, and make haste to shed blood.
17 – Surely in vain the net is spread in the sight of any bird.
18 – And they lay wait for their [own] blood; they lurk privily for their [own] lives.
19 – So [are] the ways of every one that is greedy of gain; [which] taketh away the life of the owners thereof.
Wow – this is really hitting home in this day and age when we have our financial states around the world teetering on the edge of an abyss … Yeowza wowza:-( the blood shed and death in retail stores at the beginning of the holy days *SALES EXSTRAVAGANZA’S* … come on people, smile on my brother – everyone must love one another ~ right now … we are all one and when we destroy another (ANY other) we destroy a part of our selves. When we assist (asset) another (ANY other) we assist our selves as the vibration of humanity (which includes every single man, woman and child in the world) rises around the world.
NOTE: The Hundredth Monkey
20 – Wisdom crieth without; she uttereth her voice in the streets:
21 – She crieth in the chief place of concourse, in the openings of the gates: in the city she uttereth her words, [saying],
I’m just sayin’ I’m just sayin’ … uh … I mean – I have never read the book of proverbs before (to the best of my knowledge — gosh I feel so … uh, never mind
22 – How long, ye simple ones, will ye love simplicity? and the scorners delight in their scorning, and fools hate knowledge?
23 – Turn you at my reproof: behold, I will pour out my spirit unto you, I will make known my words unto you.
The exercise is to listen with more than the brain that interprets what the eyes will read. Each month as one moves through the exercise each chapter *changes*. What a fantastic time to start reading / experiencing this
24 – Because I have called, and ye refused; I have stretched out my hand, and no man regarded;
25 – But ye have set at nought all my counsel, and would none of my reproof:
26 – I also will laugh at your calamity; I will mock when your fear cometh;
27 – When your fear cometh as desolation, and your destruction cometh as a whirlwind; when distress and anguish cometh upon you.
28 – Then shall they call upon me, but I will not answer; they shall seek me early, but they shall not find me:
29 – For that they hated knowledge, and did not choose the fear of the LORD:
Is this saying choosing ones own fear over learning from the fear of the lord* (*lord – higher power – all that is – universe ? Are we still supposed to live in fearof our higher power, the “reason for our existence”, etc. ? I hope not, but there still is a lot of bad stuff going on in the world 
30 – They would none of my counsel: they despised all my reproof.
31 – Therefore shall they eat of the fruit of their own way, and be filled with their own devices.
32 – For the turning away of the simple shall slay them, and the prosperity of fools shall destroy them.
33 – But whoso hearkeneth unto me shall dwell safely, and shall be quiet from fear of evil.
Here to learn, but am concerned … being the Evelyn turned Evie who embraced the word evil? LOL!!! Meaning Evie the evil Evelyn … NOT to make light (or maybe I am? hmmm … Evie Speak Dictionary / Thesaurus etc to facilitate understanding MY writing – letting alone trying to decipher words written thousands of years and many interpretations ago … It is time to begin to listen with more thn the ears and the brain … it is time to listen with ones heart.
I love you my friend (even if Evie knows not yet who you are) ~ may we try to learn of one another for a year and a month before we decide the other must die? When you agree we have become friends, will we work to protect each other and those we each love? Or will one still believe the other must still die for the first to advance … ?
Come back tomorrow for Chapter 2
