It All Depends

-

 I’m far from being Jesus.  He says that if you know Him then you know God.  I say that if you know me, in a way then, you know my Angels.  I am but a poor representative of my Angels.  And if I remain calm, then perhaps, you will too.  But I have learned that others are only as calm as I am.  My problem is that I am not always calm.  

Life gets to me in ways that it didn’t get to Jesus.  I have often said I am but a poor representation of Angels.  But I’ve never forgotten.  I have often wished my Angels in some way turned me into one of them.  But I had a human life before I experienced them and sometimes I forget in small ways.  But I have to remember that those who know me are only as calm as I am or at least try to be.

But sometimes I am not always calm.  If I am the best the Angels could do, I’d hate to see the worst they could do; but maybe I am the worst they could do.  But I always try to think positively and try to remember I am their best—not their worst.  They came to me—not the other way around.  When I first met them I was certain they weren’t there for me.  But I was wrong.  

So, I try to be my best for my Angels.  But I find this world stressful at times.  I’m just not always calm.  And maybe I don’t always make others calm.  But I have to remember I am the best the Angels could do.  I didn’t give them a lot to work with.  But I’ve tried as they knew I would.  So, I try to be as calming as Angels.  But there are times…

I can’t help but be quite human at times.  Maybe is some way I am part Angel now, but just a small part.  I would try to be a Palladian these days, but there is one thing that doesn’t make me quite human in that it is only what I claim they told me.  I simply don’t worry about death or dying.  But only youth doesn’t worry so much about the end of life.  

As I have gotten older, I realize many who were born the same year I was born aren’t around any longer.  I suffered a heart attack and a ruptured appendices.  How many times does God want me to face death?  I can still feel pain.  I know what sickness is.  I know what it is like to almost die!  Yet, I am still alive!  God has His reasons for keeping me alive.  

But in my humanity, as much as I try to remember, I can forget.  But I never forget for long.  I always remember.  This is why I am a poor representation for my Angels.  I don’t always remember all the time.  But when I relax wile smoking my pipe, I remember.  And remembering keeps me calm.  I get stressed when I forget.  Today my pipe is my pipe that I affectionately say is haunted.  It is my estate pipe I bought in Gettysburg years ago.  I am smoking Cornell and Diehl Star of the East.  My coffee this morning is Stumptown Holler Mountain.  Thank you for your time and Peace and Love to each one of you.

About Good Vs. Evil

-
 My Angels told me Satan wanted to create and God wouldn’t let him, when I asked them if there were physical unions in heaven.  But here on earth creating is good.  God allows us to create all we want, within limits.  But in doing so we do the will of God knowing He is the Giver  of all life.  My Angels didn’t tell me this, but it is my thinking that we have to recognize God is the Giver of ALL life.  This is why every human life is sacred and why only God can take a human life. This is why God will overlook any sin but the taking of Human Life.  This is my theology from my Angels and why it is so important that we control both our hatred and our anger.  This is why there is the taking of human life.  Satan knows this too and why there is evil in this world.  Without righteousness humanity wouldn’t exist. This is why I believe God won’t let the world be destroyed.  There will always be wars and rumors of war, which is why livin...

Bach and a Pipe

-
 Bach was known to drink wine and smoke a pipe.  I did a little research in the area and found he was known to use tobacco in a pipe.  Tobacco came from the New World and before the New world was settled tobacco was traded back and forth.  He had access to tobacco as it took some wealth back then to afford the tobacco.  It was used mostly in the upper classes of Europe and it is said that his cousin supplied him the tobacco. As to whether men of great wealth generally used tobacco is a debate that countries today.  Shakespeare is not known to have smoked tobacco, but it seems he used pot and cocaine, which were found in clay pipes excavated from his property.  But many think it would be scandalous to suggest Shakespeare used tobacco.   When we get to the settling of the New World, pipe smoking was common among men.  The odds are great that great historical figures were pipe smokers, but most of this is conjecture but we simply don’t know. ...

Most Important

-
 I’m not sure that Peace is more important than love but in a way they go hand-in-hand.  I wasn’t going to write today, but I got to thinking about my Peaceful feeling today.  I feel Peaceful as I sit and smoke my pipe, but life isn’t always peaceful.  But feeling Peaceful is the first step to loving ourselves.  And if it’s there it goes outward from us. I began a post this morning and felt it wasn’t very good and thought I’m might not post today.  I’ve had my morning coffee and am on my third bowl of pipe tobacco for the day, but I have this most peaceful feeling about life and thought I’d share this with you.  Life comes at us and we don’t always feel either peaceful or loving.  But when we take time to meditate on Peace we are filled with it. I wish I could explain it better, but we need to shut out the world and take time for ourselves.  That’s the best way I can describe it.  It is a Spiritual gift we seek.  If we want it then ...
