Diving Through Divinity: Deep into the 100 Acre Wood.

By Christopher Robin and Nate Smith

Christopher Robin was born in picturesque Prince Edward Island, Canada, in 1978. He was born into a military family and, before the age of one, moved across the country to find his new home in the prairies on a small military base in the province of Manitoba. Located several hours from Winnipeg from where his reflective young mind found it fascinating, he shared the name with a Disney character whose origin was all around him. After seven years in the prairies, Christopher and family, which included a new brother, were transferred to Gagetown, New Brunswick, at another base for three years before returning to the island of his birth. While hes studying biology in graduate school, Christophers world would schism. He was diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia. The nature of the mental illness was a high propensity for auditory and visual hallucinations. It has been a grueling decade; however, a recovery is now in sight.

HOW DO YOU WRITE THE RAIN?

"At this moment, you should be with us, feeling

like we do. Like you love to but never will again."

-Perry Ferrell, Janes Addiction.

GIFT WRAPPED

I got a gift from God. I don’t know it yet.

But given time, I’m sure, it’ll be a pretty damn good one I bet.

For now, I will let it go before I forget.

So walk away, search for the things you need.

Sprout like a seed, reach towards the sky

I ask why you can’t find

something else to occupy your time.

Instead, you think you control the walking blind,

still searching for that unseen sign.

This is all done to satisfy your soul.

The soul that has already been stolen from you

and although you don’t see it, feel it or touch it.

You lost it long ago.

Stop to think, to talk, and deal with your own self.

It is now time to think for yourself?

To become one. To truly include the rest.

If you master this, then all will be truly blessed.

If you look within you may see why all this bothers me!

There are those with no clue as to what Free is meant to mean.

Make your decisions, time to become one.

What’s next you say? Well I don’t know yet.

We’ll save that for another day.

But in the meantime

Tell me if your outstretched hand is ever met.

Let the tree of knowledge teach in ways as to how humanity

Could never forget its indiscretions.

In the process, will it uplift future generations

that inherit this Earth?

Will we leave it a wasteland of obliteration?

Or will we leave it a paradise where those who do inherit this

Will live in a utopia of mind, body, and spirit?

I say forget the rest and do your best

to find yourself, your real self.

But maybe I
