Hello my name is Strike Abraham Victory Forcze Freedom,
I incarnated in for this journey as an American of Colour. I grew up in Cleveland Ohio USA. At the age of 16 I was sent off to the only all black military academy the United States has ever had. A year later I went on to join the US Army and became a member of the 5th Special Forces Group, i.e. American Green Beret. I served 2.5 years duty in Viet Nam finishing up as One Zero Team Leader of a SOG LRRP (Long-Range Reconnaissance Team). I was Honourably Discharged after 4 years 11 months and 29 days.
I then joined the Cleveland Police Department (a story in itself) where I served for 8.5 years. During this time I began to look for something else in life for I did not feel what was on offer was enough to satisfy my growing consternation with the inconsistencies that confronted me in a growing manner every day, at work, and in my private life.
I was attracted to and started studying the philosophy of Ceremonial Magic. The reason for this though was not by chance, though I do not care to elaborate more on this point presently, (but should we begin to communicate I would be glad to explain). This continued for several years when I realised that almost all of the Western Magical Tradition revolved around something called Kabbalah. My view was and is that if all that I was studying revolved around Kabbalah (or any other system of thought for that matter) than I owed it to myself to find out what Kabbalah (or that system of thought represented) "was really about" and to understand it.
The study of Kabbalah in its universal essence, and the intergeneration of its principles into my life would lead me to finally resigning from the Police Department and go to live and work in Israel in what was at that time known as The United States Sinai Field Mission. I ended living and working in Israel for the next 6 and a half years. Working in underwater construction and security. During my last year and a half there I bought an 1100cc Yamaha XS motorcycle which I subsequently rode off of a 200 foot cliff "ouch". It was an accident I might add. That little escapade put me in the hospital for the next 11 months. On the third day there the doctor told me that I would be in the very bed upon which I lay for at least the next 7 months
L . I decided than I had two choices. I could find within myself the reason for this energy shift and make the best of it, or I could fight the situation and have a very bad time. I took the former and have never looked back or felt it was a path I should not have taken. The buying of the motorcycle that is. Of those 11 months I had "ONE" bad day, though I probably would take a softer landing if I could choose again.I then moved to Cyprus where I spent the next 3 years getting myself back in good health and life.
I then moved to England where I live and work today. I have had many jobs here but I still have a difficult time finding work and continuing harmoniously because I am constantly asking questions and making suggestions about how things can be done better, not only for my employers but also for the employees. That philosophy is rarely accepted and has been looked upon with suspicion and contempt my many of my superiors. To say the least I am always changing jobs as my employers find out where I carry my head.
I seem to find myself the round peg in a square hole. I say the thing that everyone else is thinking or ask the question that management does not want asked. It has made life difficult but on the other hand quite a learning experience. I accept the latter as a worthwhile settlement for the former.
I am presently changing professions and life style. The Dark Night of the Soul.
I prefer to be honest rather than to hide my views or feelings. This is true in my professional and personal life. It is expressed in the saying that "I do not suffer fools easily if at all".
I am a very internal person. I believe that life on the human plane (level of Conscious self-consciousness) is to not only learn but to put the learning experiences into action or in other words self-correction. "I am self corrective". A point worth noting. I am still growing, learning and changing, internally and then externally. To do this in my view it necessitates the ability to be aware of ones life on a higher plane. Then to self-consciously take the time to absorb ones daily experiences. Decern their impact upon the external plane and then how they returned to self. Then to balance any similar projections in the future, working towards balance and harmony.
"I do not use vulgar language at all" and I do not hang around people that do PERIOD.
This has limited my friends severely.
I am a vegetarian (if it has a Mother or has eyes I do not eat it).
I like to drive and work on my old car, a 1970 MGBGT; red in Colour with chrome bumpers and chrome spoked wheels. It also has a real live old fashion growl to it. GGGgggRRRrrr
JI also like music, keeping fit, reading, writing, playing the occasional computer game, and especially cooking. I can burn in the kitchen. I need to, as I am not a great fan of eating out. I see no reason for me to pay for something that I can do better for much less. I have no problem with eating out but I would expect the service and the food to at least equal what I can do at home.
I still study the essence of Kabbalah though it has taken on a different framework in the form of The Ancient Wisdom Philosophies that can be applied to practical life situations. I work at incorporating my studies into my life with the below principle as the guiding light.
The possession of Knowledge unless accompanied by a manifestation and expression in Action is like the hoarding of precious metals, a vain and foolish thing. Knowledge, like Wealth, is intended for Use. The Law of Use is Universal and he or she who violates it suffers by reason of his conflict with natural forces.
I treat every one, as I would like to be treated. I respect men, women, elders and children and all things deserving of respect. I give it first and expect it in return.
I am old fashion in my association with woman. I assist with coats, open doors and let them go first. The women who "accepts" me as her man will be treasured as a rare jewel. With all that statement represents.
I have one other passion; it is people watching I love to people watch. I can go someplace and just sit and watch all day. I apply this consideration to all groups, be they gangs, sports teams, cities, ethic groups, countries or geographical areas. This is what makes the news so interesting to me. So as one might guess I keep track of current affairs.
My life revolves in and through these things as I apply what I have learned to all life considerations to see how the "Infinite Unmanifested All" expresses it self in and through each of us and the rest of its creation. It is my view that, "It" and we are ONE and not, separate entities.
I am looking for "ONE" person a woman
J to share my life with. Now being a Scorpio I tend to extremes to say the least. Though I would like to think that I have worked my way back towards the Middle Way. So I really look at what I am interested in. "Having been down this road before" and having a pretty good idea of what I am about and what I want, I am at least picky about whom I share my company and time with. This aspect of my life has REALLY been a learning experience.I am no longer the Black American that left the United States 20 some odd years ago. I still have the accent, the memories and my loyalties, but I can also see many problems with my government, its people and myself. As we use to say in the hood "you might be my Colour but you are not my Kind". I am an Initiate of the All, incarnate in a Human Body. I KNOW I was before this body, and will be after this body is, no more.
I at present have no intention in returning to the United States though I doubt I will stay in England.
Where will I go? I do not at this point in time know. I am a citizen of the world "and I know it". I plan to exercise my right to live and work where I please.
I am presently engaged in writing a book about certain principles of the Ancient Philosophies. I also hope to do some short story writing and lecturing incorporating these same principles. I also do Spiritual Profiles for individuals that are considering embarking upon the path towards enlightenment. Or those already upon the path but have not had such a service provided for them.
This is the short of it to date. It was taken from a bio I wrote some time ago. It is the outline that I will be using as the basic framework. To explain my journey and what I have found along the way.
