Things I Tell Myself

-

 My Angels said I will help prepare the way for the coming of the Messiah.  I tell my wife often that I have either done that or will be doing it.  So, I don’t concern myself with numbers.  The world will know when it is time.  I am to simply live and live simply.  That is all I have to do.  God and Angels will do the rest.  

My Angels left smoking my pipe up to me.  If Jesus had but one drop of alcohol the whole plan of salvation would have been in jeopardy and God would have had to find another way.  I say I am not Jesus, but must be careful with any alcohol.

Jesus had it fifteen times worse than I have.  I can’t imagine what he went through psychologically.  He had to have doubts.  But He trusted God more than I have.  The pain and suffering He endured was far beyond what anyone can imagine.  So, I focus on Him as much as I can.

I will be in heaven along with my family and a place has been secured for me there forever.  If we knew what heaven was like we’d fall all over ourselves to get there.  The only ones who won’t get in are those who have intentionally taken human life.  Satan seeks to destroy all human life so he can have this world as his own.  In 1993 we were already in the Great Tribulation and I believe 31 years later we are close to the New Beginning.  

These are just a few things I know from my Angels.  As to whether I have done much to help to prepare the way I don’t think so.  But we are at the end of the old and the New will begin.  I relax by smoking my Gettysburg pipe this morning with some Rattray’s Sir William pipe tobacco.  My coffee this morning is from the Blue Bottle Coffee Company.  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...
