Open Question: How is my poem, can you please judge?

Salient, the feature, one’s all bold in a vibrating wind.
Silence my teacher. The road to the fog will come.
Salute to my tutor, the mist covers Japan’s rain drops.
Today my oranges shimmer fury in the glazing sky blue,
Chirping white birds, and yellow in the hue.
Vibration in my rear meditation, calling for patience -
I sit quietly numbed in my vagueness, in my monstrosity.
So silent my brain, it yearns passion;
The redly coloured dress, and the breath weaving it.
India’s glorious mountains, and tigers and canaries.
Today’s wealth is gone, and the brain is an outlet.
she dances my soul when I’m far, to where the stars?
Forgive my intensity, I’m waiting, fearing and commentless…
I do think of it all, her presence is calming, like a comet, striking my heart with replenishing fire, resrart of joy.
Forgive my autobiography and my loyal lively toy.
So true in my memory, like an unforgettable fissure,
So assured of my voices, like a psychic tenor.
Tonight my lady do sleep well, harmony tomorrow’s spring,
Harmonise flowers and bird’s sing –
Do approach the life by noon, and rest where the balcony be by dusk. Do clarify my foreseeing, do crystalise my land. For now I rest unaware in my breathless ears, for now I temporarily rest and let my words breath. Goodnight my love tonight, blooming morning tomorrow. Sleep my friend. Sleep.

Open Question: How is this piece of poetry?

I want to become a great actor, I swear I do…
They tell me to focus on a metaphor, self-contain my instincts.
But how can I fix it when hearing is voices,
TING TING out loud! and louder! the shimmer! the gold.
For what price she be worth the millions?
For her chameleon, look so charming, the tender light blue sky -
the seas, the winters, in frost’s horizon is the bloom and glazing -
the hot, the fire, the burning days! oh so sweet and long, something
beautiful like the mystery of the long canary islands, oh so sunny,
but today’s wires. They’d left me echoed and now I’d been gone,
to a further place, and rises the fun! flies the stunt!
It hits the ears hard, but even bitter the cold could withhold,
her tender ear tears, but even harder the noise hits.
A bold thick red lips, intense and volatile, always on the going,
no wonder it’s the Roman’s empire. Intimacy and intimidation,
Japan’s ancient meditation. Alas! and Shakespeare’s inspiration.
To where is this I go, to where the traces borrow.
Invincible footsteps follow the fear – let us leave the rear,
let us flourish sincere, sincerity and soothing the near.
I do not drink but cheer! I do not sing but near, near, near.

Open Question: Where can I start to learn to heal?

I am interested in becoming a healer of body/mind/soul for people and animals. This includes but is not limited to herbalism, Reiki, physics (including quantum physics), nutrition, early childhood development, psychology, philosophy, aromatherapy, meditation, fitness, theology, midwifery, yoga, and language, plus anything else that would help. My goal is to be able to help a person heal and prevent illness in a way that is familiar to them and their culture… Also I want to be able to explain the hows/whys of it if asked. Say I needed to heal any person; I want to be able to heal them in a way that connects with them, like a Buddhist or a someone in Japan with no religious interests. I need to know if there is a college or online program that can help me get started, and also, where do you think would be a good place to start? I know that there are no degree programs like this so… any ideas on how to get to my goal are greatly appreciated.

Open Question: What’s an extremely good sleeping pill for flying?

I am 100% terrified of flying. Right now I’m on a study abroad in Japan that ends next month. The plane ride over was fine (in terms of flight) but was horrible for me, I pretty much had an anxiety attack on the plane. I need someone who really knows their sleeping pills to suggest a great sleeping pill that will knock me out once it kicks in. I took Xanax on the flight over, and it didn’t do anything. I even took more pills than I probably should have and I only got 30 min increments of sleep every hour or so. I need something that will knock me out for 8-10 hrs straight. My fear is so bad that I’m already feeling anxiety, and I still have a month to go. Please only answer this if you really know sleeping pills. Don’t suggest herbal teas, or meditation, or xanax, or any of those ‘mild’ medicines that work with people with mild fears. This is a full blown phobia, and I just need to be out like a light when I’m on the plane.

Open Question: top 10 nations thread a perfect example…?

… of religious nuts making up facts? when they’re callled out for being wrong, they declare themselves right and call you a liberal loon? this makes sense?
see, canada is simply not a xian religion. I’m stating a fact. this does not make me liberal.
japanese buddhism is replete with shrines to ancestors. buddhism being the discipline that exists within the real world (exercise, meditation, education, eating, breathing, that sort of stuff), and taoism being the practice that involves the imaginary spiritual crap from whence miracles come. even funnier: religion is listed on your birth certificate in japan but polling suggests 70% of japanese aren’t religious! they keep ancestral shrines out of habit! so no no no to japan being buddhist.
see? I know what I’m talking about. how does that automatically translate into me being wrong based on the fact that I’m right? is that truly how the religious mind works? being right automatically translates into being wrong because xians are so used to being wrong all the time that their default position is to pick the wrong answer and declare it right?
