What it Means

 I needed a whole bowl of tobacco and a complete cup of coffee before I had something to say this morning.  My simple theology means I am not judgmental, or at least try not to be.  I’m human and not God.  But my goal is to be less human.  I could argue I’m not quite human anyway, but I simply will not go there.  My eyes are looking upward and I’m not thinking too much about earthly things.  

I hated being alone with my Angels here on earth, but at least some know and I’ve shared more with at least a few.  But it’s hard to think of judging people as I say God is.  But I have every reason to work on it.  My time alone gives me the opportunity to work on it and to constantly forgive myself.  Sometimes forgiving ourselves is harder than forgiving others.

I’m hard on myself for being human.  But I’m constantly working on it.  But if fifty years of marriage has taught me anything it is to forgive and just move on and forget.  My marriage is more important.  And this is how I feel about all my relationships in life.  Move on and forget.  Forgetting is easier to do at my age.  

God has a terrible memory about our sins.  But humans have memory.  I can remember a lot of things but I work on forgetting those times I’ve failed.  God never remembers our sins.  As a Spiritual person I’m being rather religious today, but I’ve been asked how I get along with others and never get angry.  Forgiveness is why.  I have no reason for anger and work hard to avoid it.  

Well, those are my thoughts this morning as I smoke my Boswell pipe with my now second bowl of Yale Mixture.  My coffee this morning is Bella Maria.  Thank you for your time and Peace to each one of you.
