A Cry to America (Short Story) - 11/18/2009 9:23:27 AM

For four years I have been fight this case and yes, maybe yesterday was a sign from God, "Its a Miracle" Because the Judge could have granted a sales date for my home, But he said that there are seven charges in my complaint that that Federal Judge did not dismiss, that is why it is back in State Court. He did not dimiss the seven pending charges. So there has to be an Angel watch over me right now because I am still here.
I am right now little David taking on Golith without a sling shot, I need that sling shot to defeat and bring down these so called Mortgage Gaints who have hurt so many like your self.
I was always thought that "God does not like ugly and he is not to keen on cute."
These Gaints that got bailed out will fall if not by me then by God.
Hang in there my friend.
I still have faith, I have to. Faith is stronger then anybodies money

I am on a mission (Short Story) - 10/18/2009 8:14:50 AM
Trask;
I do know what it is to be homeless as a child with no parents I was on the streets for most of my childhood. I know how you are feeling about loosing your home, this why I am doing this. What has happened is wrong.
If we come together (all of us) we as one can do something about these corrupt companies and banks. I have been fighting my case for three years and it is now in Federal Court. I have nine owners to my property. But I am not going to give up my fight. Even if I have to take it to the supreme court. I know everyone is turning a blind eye on people like you and me but there are people out here who car. Someone like me.
My site has been hacked the blog company is working on it so give it time or post your story at my email and I will post as soon as possible on the site when they get it back running. It is a shame people cannot handle the truth so they do anything to have the truth from being told.

Homeless Sky (Short Story) - 8/30/2008 12:57:35 PM
How sad there are such people as "Mr. Loudmouth". People often stare at homeless peoples, but they don't know their story. Kind people that come along and help others out are all too rare, but there are good people. This was excellently written, it made you angry and sad at the same time. There were tears in my eyes at the end.
Terri Schiavo - Now an Angel Of God (Short Story) - 12/19/2007 1:59:00 PM
Looking back on the Terri Schiavo story, the highly controversial issue remains in our hearts. Perhaps the head Angel has made Terri Heaven's Dietician and Terri is now nourishing good souls. You've asked many relevant questions and although we don't know many of the answers, stories like Terri Schiavo - Now an Angel of God lets us, your readers, reflect on a wrong and hopefully, there can be forgiveness at this point...thank you for sharing this with us, Christine...

The unfortunate of this world can be seen more and more as each turn or walk around a corner can fill the mind with the ever increasing woes of life. Our soceity goes beyond our own borders, there is sadness across the nations and unfortunately we will continue to find the loud mouth's who have no compassion for the weak and the poor...
Nice work on bringing this view forward...

California - Blind to Truth and Scared into Fiction (Short Story) - 6/17/2007 3:10:42 PM
Now to flip the coin.
I am a survivor of many things including the Ca. penal system. I have close to two years of inside county jail experiance, spead out over six years time. In Riverside County Ca. In this time frame I talked to many state prisoners awaiting transfer to prison (repeat offenders). Who said that county jail is far worse than prison...I have my doubts believe you me! And I tell you the TRUTH, I do agree with you on a lot of your views. Expecially the THREE STRIKES LAW! However I definatley want to stress some other very important views. The first time I ever went to jail I was charged with crimes I didn't commit and subsequently will have to pay for the rest of my LIFE! For giving into plea bargining. I had no help what-so-ever. Even from family who knew what was going on in my life just prior to being jailed. This is so sad but, true. I do Forgive. The truth of the matter is that I have seen many and I would have to say it is in the upper 90% of these men and women. Who have literaly let there minds become abased! They glorify evil! And refuse to change their ways! Believe you me! The only reason I went back 4 or 5 times was because I was so hurt by the lies, deciet and cover-up of my first encounter, that I honestly no-longer wished to live! I gave-up, I chose, to walk the streets in homlessness, grieving for years! until finally in '05 I made my peace and promise to God! I know all to well the descrutive force in this land (because it does not only apply to Ca.) I have vast experiance living in this Once, Great Nation. from California to Alaska and from Colorado to Tennessee and most every state in between!!! The PEOPLE do not turn from their wicked ways and SEEK GOD!!! And I mean from the littlest crimes to the largest. They pay homage with their mouths but their actions show a very different story.So even thru-out my trials and tribulations that still come, I CHOSE TO SEEK GOD!!! And I CHOSE not to have compassion on ANY who do not do the SAME!!! It is written: If they would turn from their wicked ways I would set my face upon them and heal them. Says the LOrd! But still they mock God!
God Bless,
God Speed,

It's good that you get your feelings out on paper. Although I changed my mind about this case after hearing the autopsy report, I respect your opinion. A friend's sister once did the same thing to her body with an eating disorder. Very sad situation and difficult for everyone. Sometimes it's sad sometimes that science has come so far, forcing us to make the choices that God used to make before all the machines...

I applaud you for asking these questions and yes he violated many things and I do understand why he was not brought up on those charges. But then we have a judge that adhered to his wishes. I think the end of her life does in fact say a lot about him. The live in girlfreind is forewarned now what will happen to her if she marries him.
California - Blind to Truth and Scared into Fiction (Short Story) - 11/9/2004 8:40:58 AM
"When does money and power count more then a human life?" I am afraid, Christine, this is the mentality of the privileged classes, it is now and always has been. You can count on politicians has being even worse as you quite rightly point out, I know the public give them the power, but do they ever do as the public ask. It seems it is the same the world over, we should be able to sue them for breach of contract.
Well done on bringing to our attention the injustices in life.

Dear Angel,
It has been awhile since I have paid a visit to your wonderful Den, and I apologize for not making it back sooner. This was an exceptional heart felt piece, which clearly illustrates how some in society will easily overlook another human being in need of a helping hand. Many times throughout my life, and I am happy to say, I have done exactly what was done for Sky. If in my travels I was able to help I have always tried. It wasn’t done in the hopes of trying to pass through the pearly gates when it’s my time. I was always taught a smile and common courtesy doesn’t cost a dime, yet, leading a helping hand is priceless. The misguided individual, who tossed the dollar bill with the rude comment at Sky, surely doesn’t understand, that he too, could easily be in the same situation. Such a shame, this was an extremely important reminder, and hopefully the message is heard loud and clear. Another exceptionally well-written lesson learned, Christine. Thank you for sharing it. I do hope all went well with your phone call? May God’s peace and love always be upon your doorstep and his soft winds be at your back. Have a great weekend my friend.
Respectfully submitted,
Thomas Lanechanger
The Caged Poet (Short Story) - 5/22/2004 2:51:40 AM
Salutations Author-Poet Christine D. Patterson.
Greetings esteemed Poet.
“The Caged Poet” is another brilliant write, scribed by the knowing hand of a very talented Poet, which clearly illustrates how most Poet’s embrace the night, and as such, I too feel in my case this to be perfectly true. Here it is 5:30 in the morning, and I am still probing this beautiful world as it sleeps looking for answers to many unanswered questions and issues.
Your remarkable gift for penning such a thought-provoking write, has only intensified my burning desire, to continue to write more and walk throughout the passageway of knowledge and understanding, in the hopes that together, we shall unlock the mysteries of the unknown and help guide the masses towards total harmony, and Justice for all.
My deepest gratitude, respect and admiration.

Foreclosure - Not The American Dream I Grew Up With (Article) - 2/12/2008 5:21:12 AM
A sad story heard too often. How wonderful it must feel to throw families out of the homes that they worked so hard to obtain. I’m afraid it’s a simple fact… Limousines run on the blood of people who have been tricked and mislead. How do bankers make money on zero percent APR and super low interest rates? They know a simple fact of life, sooner or later, humans have problems in their lives… the car breaks down, someone gets sick, someone losses a job. Ah, the perfect time to pounce on the weak and take them for everything they've got. Miss a payment and we own you…”It’s all there in the fine print, my friend!” Alas, leave us not forget that only time Jesus got angry was when he found the house of God being used by “Benchers“ (the money changers and lenders, precursors of bankers) to ply their evil trade. A trade ruled by Satan’s greatest tools for stealing souls… Greed and Temptation. Both work extremely well on those in need. I suppose they are able to sleep at night by attaining absolution from Satan‘s statement of personal forgiveness. “Hey, if you didn‘t take those suckers, someone else would!” Eye of a needle, it was true 2000 years ago, and it‘s even truer today. I wish you peace and success.
The Human Condition (Article) - 12/19/2007 2:17:45 PM
Perhaps the most relevant line in The Human Condition, to me, is this one,
"He needs to find the spirit within himself."
This line sums up this whole essay. I notice this article was written quite some time ago. I also wish the human condition would improve with age like wine. Women of today need to be their own providers of money and spirituality and also that of self-gratification. If a woman can only find her spirituality somewhere between her thirties and forties, then she will find that she really needs less in life - less money, less material items, less sex, less men, and more spirituality. Spirituality is key in treating yourself well. Spirituality affords a woman with a level of confidence and nurturing she needs to raise her children, with less, not more. She will be much happier in her free-style fifties if she adheres to these things in her thirties and forties...very well-written, Christine...
Warmly,
Sage

Christine, unfortunately, most states find it cheaper to warehouse people with real problems, be it drug or psychiatric, in prison than to spend the extra tax dollars needed to turn thiem into productive citizens again. But If you have never known what it is to be a productive citizen. You are doomed. Herein lies the delima.

Kenneth Chard - (Article) - 4/5/2005 5:06:16 PM
It is always sad when a person dies in prison but what is the complete story on his reason for being in prison? California as a general rule has very liberal laws governing this. Or is this a statement against prisons in general which a lot of people wonder about.
Kenneth Chard - Concrete Dreams that Bind the Chains of Hope (Article) - 4/4/2005 7:00:36 PM
Kenny, my cousin, died on March 6, 2005 at the hospital in Manteca, CA, chained to his bed. He died from complications from hepatitus that was not treated by the prison even though it was noted on his medical file. He didn't deserve to die this way. He was a loving and gentle man.
Miranda Rights - With Liberty And Justice For Who? (Article) - 8/15/2004 12:23:57 PM
Angel, you never cease to amaze with me with your incredible and overwhelming desire to help those less fortunate. As I read this powerfully well-written, gut-wrenching story, and the brilliant reviews accompanying this tragic tale, one can only ask why wasn’t this case dismissed in the first place? You don’t have to answer that because I will, my friend. The United States Judicial System is an absolute disgrace, and the perpetrators who railroaded Mr. X. should be brought up on criminal charges, including the presiding Judge! Then maybe these law officers will no longer trample all over innocent HUMAN BEINGS! I can’t believe that even in today’s well-informed society there are still innocent people getting the royal shaft. Grant it, this man had (keyword: HAD) made mistakes in his past, yet, “He who is without sin, let him cast the first stone!” You are truly a remarkable human being, and I am truly honored and proud to be considered your friend! Hopefully, someone will release this man, (maybe if this powerful story made its way to the Governor’s desk, he may sign a pardon) and the Great State of California and her compassionate people, will pay him some sort of restitution, so this human being who did absolutely nothing wrong can rejoin society, and try and live with some sort of decency, and return to having a chance of regaining some form of normalcy in his life. May the gentle winds of the Creator’s grace comfort and guide you and yours throughout your journey through time and space. Thank you for sharing this stunning story, my friend. Take care and be well.
Always with respect and admiration.

Mental illness is one of the hardest things in life to deal with, I know because I suffer from it myself. Luckily with the right medications many of these illness can be treated. With mental illness comes a shame, something you fear that no one ever finds out you have. Often something we as the mentally ill don't want to accept for ourselves. Thanks for the write and trying to bring some awareness to this subject. Peace!
Miranda Rights - With Liberty And Justice For Who? (Article) - 1/7/2004 2:48:34 PM
We need more people in the world like this writer. Christine knows the difference between what is reality and what is personal gain at the expense of human lives. She has the courage to stand by her convictions; moreover she does something about it. This lady has uses her gift of writing to help those less fortunate by informing the public what is real occurring with the Three Strikes Law in California and how it is not doing what the California voters intended. I wish there were more concerned individuals who would donate their talents to helping others who have fallen prey to this draconian law that falls heaviest on minorities and the poor. Christine, my thanks to you for this article and may God continue to bless and use you in a might way. Your rewards are laid up in heaven.
Miranda Rights - With Liberty And Justice For Who? (Article) - 12/26/2003 10:27:13 PM
The authoring attorneys for the "Three Stikes Law" failed miserably. Even they admit that how it's being wielded was not its intent. Unfortunately, those authors did not make their intent clear. And, by the same token, judges have no choice except to rule in accordance with the interpretation. Albeit, judges do have the option of ruling with prudence: yet, most simply will go with the letter of the law, right or wrong.
As a former paralegal, most people would be astounded to realize that 20,000 new and/or amended laws go on these United States books every month of every year: both State and Federal. That's 240,000 annually. American law has become so convoluted that attorneys are having to specialize in fixed fields: even then it remains massive and unclear, almost wholly relying on precedent. It is so volumimous that many lobbyists have submitted bills to change "Ignorance of the law is no excuse" to the fact that ignorance of the law is normal!
God has allowed this: the point being, He gave us only Twelve Laws and humanity balked about that! They grumbled because they had no human king. So, God allowed us our kings and and their laws and look what it got us.
Very good write, Christine! You might be interested in an article I wrote sometime ago, "Checkless, Cashless Society" or something to that effect.

Terry Moses - A Slow Death Behind Prison Bars (Article) - 10/26/2003 5:23:36 PM
I like your convictions on this issue. I am a resident of CA and am appalled at its stupidity in the management of this aspect of its social "problems". Have you ever done a comparative analysis on the cost of building and maintaining the prison systems here as opposed to the school systems and other more relevent community-based rehab/social service programs? Whatever happened to the dreams of the baby boomers in the 60s and 70s?
Terry Moses - A Slow Death Behind Prison Bars (Article) - 10/9/2003 12:07:01 PM
Again, Christine, an eye-opening write! And the question will linger, How many? How long? When? The judicial system is running amock, all for the almighty dollar. And the government will take the dollars from whichever means they can. So sad, because it's a punishment on the people that need not be. Excellent write....

Terry Moses - A Slow Death Behind Prison Bars (Article) - 10/9/2003 10:14:35 AM
I am glad that you brought this issue up. I for one do-not understand the judicial system at all. I know a 'kid' in California that really got a bad rap, Brandon Hein, he's no angel but the punishment sure didn't fit the crime. Here in Tx., it's really nuts. Thanks again Dear Angel, it's a shame the way things are.

David Samuel - Hanging By A Thread of 50 Years to Life (Article) - 7/6/2003 7:52:51 AM
Very well said!! The reason they have this three strikes law is because it makes it easy for them to lock people up, that way they have their high paying jobs!!!! And it doesn't happen just to the mentally ill! Wish we could share more.... keep writing, it needs to be heard....

David Samuel - Hanging By A Thread of 50 Years to Life (Article) - 7/5/2003 8:26:05 PM
There are too many cases where mental illness is automatically classified as a reason to "lock" a person away. The 3 strikes law is just another excuse to "do away" with people that the government doesn't want to deal with, thus Mental Illness patients. This is ludicrous!!!
David Samuel - Hanging By A Thread of 50 Years to Life (Article) - 7/5/2003 8:21:21 PM
This is a very touching story. Its very sad when a young person has a mental illness. now days, people are so scared of mental illness that they just lock them up, and they believe this is solving the problem when in fact its just ignoring the issue.
Kenneth Chard - Concrete Dreams that Bind the Chains of Hope (Article) - 6/27/2003 10:36:56 AM

Aids - The Real Truth (Poetry) - 12/2/2008 8:52:26 PM
Quite well penned Christine. What it does not say though is that AIDS is completely preventable through the exercise of sexual hygiene. This fact tends to limit my sympathy. So many AIDS victims consciously ignore all advice with respect to the use of condoms and so on - they need not be infected.
There are many victims who really do deserve genuine help, support and sympathy - blood transfusion victims, rape victims and so on. But these are a minority. Discussions on AIDS tend to be extremely lacking in balance as all AIDS sufferers are regarded as hapless victims whereas many of them are reckless fools.

So many lost lives, so much destruction, so many hurt and maimed forever, Oh a gbetter world has to be found and come soon. In God's time I think it will be. How can we end this war. It does not seem to be an answer but left up to our Lord.

Clever, well-written, and insightful.

Aloha Chris!
I just happend to stumble across your works by accident (always the case, it seems) and this is the first of your things I have read. Must say it is a fascinating expression of extremely palpable emotion! It reminds me of some of my own attempts to capture intense moods and strong feeling in print. Life is, of course, full of savagery on many scales, from those of a personal nature to some involving whole nations and races. Clearly nothing is going to change in this respect, since the cycle of chaotic male/female interactions has been repeating itself from the dawn of recorded history. However, sharing of such powerful expressions of experience in the written medium is a cathartic benefit of writing that ranks high among those that us habitual scribblers and word-slingers rely upon to keep our experiential gyroscopes calibrated and functioning normally. Think about the possibilities that can (and could) arise if all that emotional angst is channeled into a mutually beneficial conduit connecting two individuals! If not properly controled and/or modulated, it has the potential to spin wildly out of control and destroy

Very well written and emotional. The secrets which eats at our soul and bars our hearts is often unseen and unknown. Thank you, I enjoyed reading. I also write and oddly named one of my poems with a line from Shakespeare without realizing it at the time.

Truth, Revelation, and Reality. To be able to sit down in harmony at the dinner table each night and discuss family interests and offer kind conversation and positive input into family members lives keeps a family close-knit. Even single parenting dinner conversations lend guidance to a daughter's and son's future. The butter knife is just so much more old-day friendly...Somebody's Son is very hard-hitting...especially if it's one of your own.
Warmly,
Sage

Spot on state of affairs in our nation. Personally, I have encountered over half of these accuracies. I take this poem very serious and to heart and see no humor. This validates your work in that you're up on current events and I appreciate your compassionate side too, Christine. Be well always...Blessed Be.
Warmly,
Sage

How many people really read the words and understood that every word has and will continue to happen until the people of this country gets fed up. Until reality sets in nothing will ever change. When the reality of this hits your home then will you realize what has happened to so many individuals before you.

I just read your poem, The End of Time, and I couldn't help but think of the poem, The Box (by Lescellas Abercrombie), that I first read in the late '60's when I was in college and the Vietnam War was in the headlines every day. I didn't think another peom about war could ever move me the way The Box did at that time of great national upheaval, but yours is the closest that I've ever read. Keep up the good work.

And God forbid, if you lost your job, and became poor,
Try being homeless, you are not considered in the human race anymore.
The music that we all listen to has words that we refuse to hear when it plays,
Just like a Poem, How many really understand what it has to say?
STOP!!!! IS THIS POETRY? OR IS THIS REALITY?
I definately do!
God Bless,
God Speed,
