Subject: [Earthwise] There Is No Closing (Poem)

Happy to join this group, and thankful for an opportunity to share.

I enclose a poem, that seems appropriate for this time of year.(Celtic New Year)
regards
Morning Star

There is no Closing

There is no lack, no door closing,
no limitation of time or season;
no last page to turn nor chapter completed, in a life of the eternal.

There is no summer longing for winter's call,
nor last day of spring with flower's ripeness.
There is but the eternal joy of this day
and moment,
where life refreshes itself again
with new wonders
that are born
on the breezes of joy
and light's perfection.

All of this called into a heart
that is ever-expanding
in its infinite embrace
of joy, of light, of beauty,
of the touch of the flower in its fullness
and the promise that lies in the seed of hope.

All of this is joined in its oneness
of the celebration of life,
that is captured in each season
and enjoyed at every age—from youth's enfoldment
to the wealth of aged years.
All is captured,
all is embraced
by the Spirit
that is known within you,
that sees the majesty
of the eternity of it all
—that can be tasted in a day,
in a savored breath
that is enjoyed
forever.

So bless it all,
let it fall,
and then,
let it arise
again
within your eternal Spirit.

Coming from WA state, I know all too well about earthquakes, being in a few myself. Still very useful information:

JO KITT AND I WERE IN A SHO NUF EARTHQUAKE THIS FALL IN VIRGINIA. WE HAD NO IDEA OF WHAT TO DO TO SAVE OUR LIVES. THERE WAS AN EARTHQUAKE AND AFTERSHOCKS IN OKLAHOMA ALSO THIS FALL. THEY ARE EVERYWHERE...
 
WITH THE ENCLOSED INFORMATION, WE WOULD HAVE A BETTER CHANCE OF SURVIVING OUR NEXT ENCOUNTER.

>Where to Go During an Earthquake

>Remember that stuff about hiding under a table or standing in a doorway? Well, forget it! This is a real eye opener. It could save your life someday.
>
>EXTRACT FROM DOUG COPP'S ARTICLE ON 'THE TRIANGLE OF LIFE'
>
>My name is Doug Copp. I am the Rescue Chief and Disaster Manager of the American Rescue Team International (ARTI ), the world's most experienced rescue team. The information in this article will save lives in an earthquake.
>
>I have crawled inside 875 collapsed buildings, worked with rescue teams from 60 countries, founded rescue teams in several countries, and I am a member of many rescue teams from many countries. I was the United Nations expert in Disaster Mitigation for two years, and have worked at every
major disaster in the world since 1985, except for simultaneous disasters.
>
>The first building I ever crawled inside of was a school in Mexico City during the 1985 earthquake. Every child was under its desk. Every child was crushed to the thickness of their bones. They could have survived by lying down next to their desks in the aisles. It was obscene -- unnecessary.
>
>Simply stated, when buildings collapse, the weight of the ceilings falling upon the objects or furniture inside crushes these objects, leaving a space or void next to them - NOT under them. This space is what I call the 'triangle of life'. The larger the object, the stronger, the less it will compact. The less the object compacts, the larger the void, the greater the probability that the person who is using this void for safety will not be injured. The next time you watch collapsed buildings, on television, count the 'triangles' you see formed. They are everywhere. It is the
most common shape, you will see, in a collapsed building.
>
>TIPS FOR EARTHQUAKE SAFETY
>
>1) Most everyone who simply 'ducks and covers' when building collapse are crushed to death. People who get under objects, like desks or cars, are crushed.
>
>2) Cats, dogs and babies often naturally curl up in the fetal position. You should too in an earthquake. It is a natural safety/survival instinct. You can survive in a smaller void. Get next to an object, next to a sofa, next to a bed, next to a large bulky object that will compress slightly but leave a void next to it.
>
>3) Wooden buildings are the safest type of construction to be in during an earthquake. Wood is flexible and moves with the force of the earthquake. If the wooden building does collapse, large survival voids are
created. Also, the wooden building has less concentrated, crushing weight. Brick buildings will break into individual bricks. Bricks will cause many injuries but less squashed bodies than concrete slabs.
>
>4) If you are in bed during the night and an earthquake occurs, simply roll off the bed. A safe void will exist around the bed. Hotels can achieve a much greater survival rate in earthquakes, simply by posting a sign on the back of the door of every room telling occupants to lie down on the floor, next to the bottom of the bed during an earthquake.
>
>5) If an earthquake happens and you cannot easily escape by getting out the door or window, then lie down and curl up in the fetal position next to a sofa, or large chair.
>
>6) Most everyone who gets under a doorway when buildings collapse is killed. How? If you stand under a doorway and the doorjamb falls forward or backward you will be crushed by the ceiling above. If the door jam falls
sideways you will be cut in half by the doorway. In either case, you will be killed!
>
>7) Never go to the stairs. The stairs have a different 'moment of frequency' (they swing separately from the main part of the building). The stairs and remainder of the building continuously bump into each other until structural failure of the stairs takes place. The people who get on stairs before they fail are chopped up by the stair treads - horribly mutilated. Even if the building doesn't collapse, stay away from the stairs. The stairs are a likely part of the building to be damaged. Even if the stairs are not collapsed by the earthquake, they may collapse later when overloaded by fleeing people. They should always be checked for safety, even when the rest of the building is not damaged.
>
>8) Get near the outer walls of buildings or outside of them if possible - It is much better to be near the outside of the building rather than the interior. The
farther inside you are from the outside perimeter of the building the greater the probability that your escape route will be blocked.
>
>9) People inside of their vehicles are crushed when the road above falls in an earthquake and crushes their vehicles; which is exactly what happened with the slabs between the decks of the Nimitz Freeway. The victims of the San Francisco earthquake all stayed inside of their vehicles. They were all killed. They could have easily survived by getting out and sitting or lying next to their vehicles. Everyone killed would have survived if they had been able to get out of their cars and sit or lie next to them. All the crushed cars had voids 3 feet high next to them, except for the cars that had columns fall directly across them.
>
>10) I discovered, while crawling inside of collapsed newspaper offices and other offices with a lot of paper, that paper does not compact. Large voids are found surrounding stacks of
paper.

>The entire world is experiencing natural calamities so be prepared!

>In 1996 we made a film, which proved my survival methodology to be correct. The Turkish Federal Government, City of Istanbul , University of Istanbul Case Productions and ARTI cooperated to film this practical, scientific test. We collapsed a school and a home with 20 mannequins inside. Ten mannequins did 'duck and cover,' and ten mannequins I used in my 'triangle of life' survival method. After the simulated earthquake collapse we crawled through the rubble and entered the building to film and document the results. The film, in which I practiced my survival techniques under directly observable, scientific conditions , relevant to building collapse, showed there would have been zero percent survival for those doing duck and cover.
>
>There would likely
have been 100 percent survivability for people using my method of the 'triangle of life.' This film has been seen by millions of viewers on television in Turkey and the rest of Europe, and it was seen in the USA , Canada and Latin America on the TV program Real TV.
