Oprah Winfrey's Question "What do you want to grow?"


“A Good Seed”

A list of compassing and wisdom wrapped in a path of spiritual discovery, a way to a better life, a way from all my brothers and sisters to get out of the ghetto, out of addiction, out of going to prison a direct path that I have traveled first, and found great joy. I want the people to understand the concept of reconciliation, the ability of their two hands, and compassion of action able to change peoples’ lives mixed with the fortitude to make it happen. I want to tell people truths, of food and health, self discovery, defeating shame, then discovering elation, spiritual joy in any faith so deep, so raw, so visceral in words in song in action. I want them to see through “The Eye of Thor” for just a moment. 150 words can only give you a glimpse of the ability of a human to “Shine”.

I am an x-felon, an x-addict, an x-homeless man, who went back to college, earned a degree, and began a system of giving back, the first stepping stones of the path, then a trauma, my spine shifted, I could not walk, the athlete in side me fell, but my spirit raised me. I got back up, taught myself to walk, then to jog and then run a 13.2 mile marathon. I want people to grow in this way, never give up, in anyway and most of all find joy and compassion in the dark, to follow lights and to “Shine”, living each moment full and in completeness, with truth and love as a guiding force. I want to plant a good seed.

Chef John Ernst aka Thor

 Why....It is my gift. It is what I have to give in the long or short time I have left.

  1. Oprah Winfrey. #BeliefStories I am the same man if not better. Why do you doubt? #THOR Amen sister. Many such as you left, but I know. It is a thing to know, it is. Peace-UP by THOR​ is the real idea, so deep every line can be expanded into the actions of today. You should recognize the first line. It was just repeated in form, "No Man Woman or Child shall live in Poverty or Terror." I am not just Chef John "The Ghetto Gourmet"​ that be a mere dribble of idea. If a man could change everything. He would need help and be well let say. #THOR add #Easter & #Storm, I bless you in your walk. It is not about me and I was not sent to be a star. I was sent to bring a message,:for, if love be the judge then fair be my trial, and loved is so. (We will meet someday some things are already set into motion long ago, even before me.) http://theeyeofthor.blogspot.com/2011/12/intimate-relationship.html
