A Lot of Lies

-

 I had another post written for this morning I was going to post, but I simply deleted it.  My Spirit Guides didn't make me wealthy.  In fact they may have done the opposite, but I consider them as my wealth.  So, I'm making a comparison this morning between them and a young man who proposed to his fiance telling her his engagement ring he gave to her was worth $50,000.  She showed the ring to all her friends and believed it was a ring costing that much.

But before her wedding, she decided to have the ring appraised maybe for insurance purposes.  I'm not sure, but I'm guessing.  She may have had her suspicions about him before she went through with the wedding.  The article I read didn't say why she had the ring appraised.  But it was appraised for a measly $30.  That is not a typo!  Thirty bucks in US money!  I mention this because she called off the wedding.

The article said only the ring was the reason.  But my thinking is that she had to figure if he lied about the ring, what other lies had he told her.  Did he tell the truth about anything?  She had to think that was a pretty big lie.  He embarrassed her and her family.  Could she spend a lifetime with someone she couldn't trust?  The article didn't go into detail just that it was the ring.  

In a way, I can't compare this to my Spirit Guides, but I was told I lied, or I halucinated them, or perhaps the worst one was that they were demons.  I can't compare my Spirit Guides to a $30 engagement ring, but these comments made me pretty reclusive until I had my believers.  His problem was with the ring.  There is a huge difference between $30 and $50,000!  I don't believe anyone would fault her for calling the wedding off.

But if MY Spirit Guides were something other than what I say they were, I probably wouldn't be here.  Now I wonder what lies he will tell someone else.  I wonder, as she probably did, as to what other lies he told her.  Could she believe anything he said?  I almost had to die twice before my wife believed me.  I wondered what else God could do to me.  And even that took some twenty years!  If I had lied about my Spirit Guides I wouldn't be here.  But I hated the pain for God to prove His point about me!

This guy has nothing for his lies.  And THAT is my point.  I would have nothing too.  Even my life!  My lying about my Spirit Guides would have been far worse.  He lost a fiance.  I would have lost my life!  And my lie would have been far worse!  He can go on and lie to someone else or give her that $30 ring.  I would have been dead!  So, I compare his lie to the lie I was accused of telling.  She found out his lie.  And I had to prove my lie was the truth.  

So, I'm making a comparison this morning.  He lost his fiance over a lie.  I'm hoping she'll find someone she can trust.  As to what he will find I have no idea.  I can write her love story.  Maybe she passed up a nice guy because of him.  Or maybe several she could have married.  He'll find that sucker he deserves.  I'm on her side in this.  But IF my Spirit Guides were anything other I say they were, I simply would not be here.

So, no, I didn't lie, I didn't hallucinate, and they weren't demons.  But he lied and was caught in his lie.  I'm not sure it is the same comparison, but I guess I COULD question the appraisal, but I won't.  It's just that IF I had said all I've said about my Spirit Guides was a lie, I just can't imagine.  He had to be hoping she'd never found out.  It's a good thing she found out when she did!  I'm smoking my Peterson Irish Harp this morning  with some Captain Black Original.  My coffee this morning is the last of my Stumptown Holler Mountain.  Thank you for your time and Peace to each one of you.

It's About Balance

 I seem to struggle week after week as to how much football I am going to watch.  There for awhile I was watching all the analysis of the collegiate games and decided I was simply paying too much attention to football.  I cut way back last week and as the season begins to unfold I have to ask myself how much is too much?  I didn't watch one pro game last weekend and hadn't followed the analysis of collegiate games all week.   Then I found myself having a kind of withdrawal and decided I can watch whatever football I want to watch as long as it doesn't interfere with my Spirituality.  But at what point is too much too much?  My wife and I talked about this last week as I cut back on watching and we both decided that I like football and I shouldn't have to be thinking about how much or how little I watch.  I enjoy the games.  College more than the pro's.   I don't have to watch the analysis, but I like College Game Day and I like...

 I can never predict how any of my posts are going to be received but I do get a reaction from my wife quite often, but I'll post about my Spirituality thinking I've said enough and apart from a few other subjects my Spirituality posts do quite well.  I had yesterday's tobacco review done a few days ago and saved it for yesterday and again, it seems my tobacco reviews do quite well.  Then I wrote about my age and it seemed no one cared that much   My wife says that it's my titles for my subjects So, while I have so many subjects to choose from, today it is about how my tobacco choices influence my Spirituality or do they?  Not really.  It's just that I can't smoke my pipes without tobacco.  I could be smoking a lot of things.  Like the question asked when someone thinks you are crazy, " What have I been smoking?"  Well, at least you know.  It's never any "funny" stuff.  You could be asking what I've been drinking.  I have ...

Old Ads

-
 My wife liked my post about old things we remember.  And a lot of what I remembered was good.  But there was some bad things back then that are different today.  Back in the 50's and 60's and even into the 70's advertising in both magazines and TV were incredibly sexist.  I don't have the space in one post to list all the ads, but really they can be summed by saying that a lot of advertising was incredibly sexist. I 've mentioned my wife lit my pipe for me just a few times, but these days she can barely tolerate the aroma of my most flavorful Aromatic tobacco.  She liked everything I said in that post except my mentioning Old Professor pipe tobacco.  Ironically, I like Old Professor the most and she hates it the most.  So, when I mentioned it, she did too.  But back in the day a man smoking a pipe was his lifestyle.  Today, it's a hobby, and not just for men. But too back in the day, no woman could walk down the street without some perv...
