In order to make an omelet, ya gotta crack a few eggs

     Life is full of little disappointments. Though, some may disagree, aren't they really just temporarily basking in the happy-go-lucky feeling of whatever their present moment might contain? We all eventually die and experience disappointments. Some individuals are just really good at condoning forgetfulness through the art of focused mental distraction through occupation.  As much as we may wish that it is possible for life to be lived in total harmony, from start to finish, it will never be so.
     There are two quite different assumptions we can make about the universe and its possession of both good and bad experiences. The first is that the universe or God, is a single entity and both experiences are part of it. The second, is that the universe or God, is in fact, two separate entities--one entity which is goodness, and another that is evil.

     In the latter assumption of a bilateral God, we would endeavor, our entire lives, to move far enough away from the evils during our experience in hopes of eradicating the thought and even memory of that side of the universe entirely. By the end, through focus, being left only with the good universe to boot.
     In the former belief, (the belief that all is one) only a single possibility could assume that the one universe or God were actually good in nature. The ingrained requirement being: by the end of one's existence the evil be entirely overcome and its usefulness expired.

A Symbiosis with God

The very first living organisms, bacteria, fungi, and alga had to marry in order to survive… We will have to do the same with God if we want to live beyond death. Edited Pic via Pixabay | Copyright 2021 by Bookflurry Inc. I recently had the pleasure of reading Entangled Life by Merlin Sheldrake . Merlin is a biologist, following in the footsteps of his father, who has spent countless hours studying the relationships between plants and mycorrhizal networks (fungal and root systems that spread out beneath our feet). These networks show traits of conscious action. Communications between fungus and plant is imperative in deciding which organisms will benefit from, or make a more fair trade, when it comes to nutrients such as sugar, carbon, sunlight, and water. What, you didn’t think soil was just dirt did you? Over ninety percent of soil is biological organisms. Fungi making connections with other microscopic lifeforms in order to live and spread. Conscious choices are being mad...

Confederate Statues Fall

Across the country, statues commemorating the lives of Confederate soldiers are being struck down and stored away until the firestorm of anti-racism cools. Should anti-racism cool? That is the real question. Anti-racism is a thing, and that is because racism is and once was a thing. Jeff Greenberg Universal Images Group Editorial/UIG via Getty Images In 1861 portions of the country (that is to say, groups of people) began declaring themselves apart from the United States in hopes of forming a Confederate States of America. It was assumed among the groups, that if enough followers would back them and join together, slavery would not be abolished. The United States was fighting to defend the constitution, in the mean time. Some were hoping to keep slavery in place, whether it may have been for reasons of business, quality of life, or fear of conflict at their homesteads. Head-of-homestead owners, could simply have wanted the credit for freeing their own slaves. After years of ha...

Your Day Starts at the End

Look Onward to Your Epitaph Photo by John Cobb on  Unsplash What are words? Very few words make any sense without a word or two surrounding them; a punctuation mark. A picture is worth a thousand of these words because only the people in them can sum up the experience in a few. Take that same photograph and place before it any number of different circumstances and the reality of that moment changes instantly. Ever been talking to someone and been cut-off right before you make yourself perfectly clear? Sometimes, a tiny pause is enough to let a listener jump to conclusions. A paragraph is so much more complete than a sentence. A sentence more complete than a clause. A clause more complete than a word. A word more complete than a syllable and a syllable more so than a letter. An epitaph is most complete of all. A life fully realized. In physics, they call the observation of the smallest physical things, the collapse of the wave function. Because once you break down atoms i...
