Just A Thought

Most people only use Time as an event marker as in "Such and such happened here". Since Time only moves outward in only one direction, it seems to me that it only has one dimension. Physically, we all move outward. We can’t move backward in Time except through memory. Memory is very unique. If we were particularly close / in love with someone and he / she are now gone, our memory glamorizes his / her virtues and ignores / forgets the downsides / history of the relationship. Frequently, we go through a litany of would of’s, could of’s and should of’s. All completely normal. The downside of all this reverse emoting is that the grieving person is more interested in penance for some perceived indiscretion, stupidity on their part. Whether or not any indiscretion or stupidity on their part did in fact exist is a mute point. Perhaps the now gone person pulled the plug on the relationship through their own stupidity, but you and I inherit the guilt because God / Fickle Finger Of Fate moved that person permanently and physically away from our reach. Life is full of all kinds of choices and paths. Most of our choices and paths are accidental.. While we can make a conscious decision to go in one direction, there is no guarantee our choice is right in terms of benefits. Perhaps most of our life’s paths aren’t all that great because the universe cycles through order, chaos, resurrection / redemption. Sometimes God drafts us into something for her purpose and isn’t exactly thrilled when our choices cause her a gigantic headache. I sense that sometimes God gets so vexed at what we’ve done, that she removes the impediment so we can get on with the things God wants us to do during our life. Just a thought!!!.

Organized Fumbling

God ain’t interested in doing a lot of unnecessary / repetitive work so here is one of her designs so you and I can fumble our way through life without bothering her!!! All living things have a Soul. All inanimate things have a Spirit. Life is built on patterns. We mange our lives by looking for exceptions to the patterns. If you don’t believe me try writing down / keeping a mental note of why you notice something. Many years ago there used to be a management philosophy called Management By Exception. Little did the proponents realize they were talking about one of the fundamentals of life.

God, Heaven And All That Jazz

Many years ago it suddenly occurred to me that I just couldn’t cope with fearing God any longer in terms of religious practices. It got sooooo bad that I decided to put my Soul on the line. I just naturally like people and it seemed to me that God maybe just wanted to be liked too without all the fou fou. One day I got up out of bed and started to talk to God. That day went without any lightening bolts or other assorted phenomena from which a reasonably compose mentus person would conclude that he / she ought not to be doing that. I talk to God as a friend, in the sense that I treat her like I'd treat anyone I meet on the street. So far its' worked for me. So what can I tell you now???? God and I are like two peas in a pod. She sometimes does things for me and I do things down here for her. Sort of like an on earth angel. She started me off with small assignments and as I got onto the swing of things she gave me harder / more complicated problems / people with which to deal. In my dreams, I now seem to be looking out at people / things and get a sensation of doing things without seeing my hands or legs ( yeah, I know it sounds silly ). Also it seems to me, that if God / angels have to cross over into our dimension for various reasons to see us etc. it seems to me they would be in forms that our 3 dimensional experience would recognize. As far as what heaven is like, I suspect in heaven, that as we are in spirit form, that we can travel from here to there instantaneously without having to travel through space / time as we know it. We would have the ability to go back and forth in artificial time and see / feel people that we’ve loved / missed etc.. Oh, by the way, look out for some of God’s on earth angels!!! Sometimes they are only there to tell you something as God’s messenger and other times to have a full blown relationship with you!!!

Past, Present, Future

Everything in this universe is divided into 3’s and past, present, and future is no exception. The past, from a mathematical perspective, is based on the number 3 and geometrically speaking on the 3 sided triangle. The present is based on the number "1" or what exists at this instance. The present from a philosophical viewpoint can be considered as being in Slices Of Now or a series of "1’s" (ones) of various duration. Each of us in the present live in frames which have an area of 9 square units or 2 sides of a length of 3. For the philosophical inclined these 9 square units are our Substance Of Being. The future is probably the most fascinating concept of all. None of us can see the future in terms of specifics. We can see the future in terms of generalities / goals / objectives / etc. which may or may not happen. Therefore the future is statistical in nature. The future can be controlled to a limited extent by influencing the energy fields around us. God, in her wisdom / purpose, has arranged for books /religious leaders / religions / philosophers / writers / thinkers etc.. over the millennia to come and teach us how to control those energy fields. It basically all boils down to do onto others as you would have them do onto you or as I like to think of it "Do onto others before they do you" (just kidding)!!!

Death, God, Religion

It suddenly crossed my mind that death, God and religion are all linked. My observation of God, is that she doesn't think like you and I and furthermore, she does things that would make your hair curl. It's like being in love with someone and suddenly discovering she is quite capable of and does things that you would never dream in a million years that she would do!!! Therefore I’d be extremely careful what I wish for like death or believing wholeheartedly in religion, because its’ been my experience that most of us can’t see the future and often anticipate a lot of realities that prove to be non - existent and at best illusionary if not utterly wispy!!!!

Who

I’ve always been fascinated about how things work. Over the years I’ve come to the inescapable conclusion that whomever designed this universe in terms of my ability to understand what’s happening is immensely clever and that if I thought long and hard about it perhaps she would give me some clues. I use the term "she" because a woman is the closest entity that I know that is most like God for lack of a better term. I realize that women have been the butt of jokes over the centuries but if you dissect a woman’s characteristics, a woman is the closest living entity to the characteristics of God that we have on earth. A woman is clever than a man, insightful, and won’t take b**ls**t very long unless she is in love. God has the same characteristics. A man on the other hand is predominantly full of b**ls**t for all intense and purposes. You have plenty of examples of historical men that have been full of b**ls**t and have not realized it and have given the world a gigantic headache in the process. There may be exceptions because nothing in this universe is 100%. Anyway if you look at life in terms of its’ fundamental workings you will soon realize that what I’ve posted has merit if not elusive truth!!!

Prototypical Man

It seems to me that God who is a woman, enigmatic, and quite capable of getting her own way, designed man as a prototype for woman. Woman are perfect, but prototypical man has been left in the lurch.

Man, being God's prototype, on her way to designing woman now finds himself:

1. Giving up on women and watching sports on which he bets money, can’t win, can’t second guess and which drives him emotionally crazy.

2. Giving up on sports and studying women, who he will never understand either and which
will still drive him nuts ( see 1. )

3. Wondering if God has a "steady"???????

Life - Version 2

No matter how you slice / dice / express life it all comes down to these simply truths. God, not wanting to do any more work than you and I, has set up this universe so it is essentially self sustaining. God is available for questions, will be your friend and will mentor you providing you’re willing to do your part. It all involves energy and your ability to control it. Energy is the prime building material in this universe and if you know how to use it, physically speaking, you will be generally OK if we exclude random events. Energy comes in three forms. They are positive energy, negative energy and holes. Holes are no energy at all. We all know what it’s like when we get into a gigantic hole and need help getting ourselves out. Sometimes we think our way into a hole which doesn’t exist, except in our Mind. Mind likes fun. Mind creates thought, Thought creates illusion. Illusion creates reality. If you neglect Mind or allow your mind to diddle over the really unimportant stuff you’ve got a huge problem on your hands. We’ve all been there, done that at one time or another. Negative energy is the next big bugaboo. We all know about it. Frequently it starts out in various forms of "Woe is me." and if we really get good at "Woe is me" we can really, really, generate a lot of problems and if we’re particularly good at it, get all our friends involved and exhaust them toooooo!!!! So the only thing left is positive energy. Think positively. Thinking positively is tougher than you think. For instance, if you blame yourself, this is negative energy big time. Never, never, blame yourself. Don’t blame others either or circumstances because that just generates a lot of nasty negative energy. The solution I’ve found is to go to God and say:

"This is another fine mess you’ve got me in."

She and I have a good laugh and then I get back to my shovel and see if I can dig my way out of it. If I run into problems I say to God " Got any hints??????" Sometimes, she just lets me work my own way out of it in the hopes I permanently learn something for a change!!!!
