I'll Know
Apart from what I've written here about my Spirituality, I'm actually pretty quiet about it. Writing is a window to the soul. I've not been too vocal about smoking a pipe, but pipe smoking for me goes hand-in-hand with my Spirituality. This is my only outlet for doing both. This is a post as to when I'll be more vocal about both pipe smoking and my Spirituality.
When that time will come I will know. But I'm thinking my Spirituality can change the world. I don't write about how I want the world to change, but I do. Of course love and peace are pretty generic and universal. I don't get into specifics here because I don't want to do this. Skepticism has always bothered me the most. So, I don't wish to add fuel to the fire of skeptics
I was quiet about my Spirituality for years just for this very reason. And I'm not a proseletyzor either for Spirituality or pipe smoking. I'm fairly quiet about both. But most who click on my posts here know me already, although admittedly while my pipe smoking has been known, my Spirituality is a relatively new Revelation. But I'm thinking there will be a time when both will be revealed to many. That time has not yet come.
But how will I know? I'll just know. I begin here. These posts ARE the windows to my soul. I'll just know. I'm not sure HOW I will know, but I will. Until then this is what I do. I could say what I do here is just a beginning. This is only the beginning and not an end
This is in part why I chose the theme for this blog, because I'm always smoking a pipe while writung here. And it's why I like to conclude each post with the pipe I'm smoking and which tobacco I put in my pipe. My pipe is a tool for both meditation and thought. There could be other devices for tools, but I chose a pipe long ago. It's been a part of me for half a century. My Spirituality is newer.
But in time, I'm thinking both will become more known and that they both go together. But not too many know this about me. So, I begin here. This is where it all begins. This blog then is simply a beginning. This is how I see it. I avoid writung about world affairs and politics. I write only about my own Spiritual jpurney without proselytizing. This is strictly about me. It is not about religion, per se. I am part theologian. I still think of my Spirituality as a kind of a life philosophy.
I've learned that Spirituality teaches patience. It's one commodity that is in short supply these days. If there is one lesson I've learned over the years is patience. Sometimes I'll forget. My Spirituality keeps me grounded. As I write this morning I am smoking my Peterson Sherlock Holmes pipe with some Apricots and Cream tobacco. I thank you for your time and Peace to each one of you.
