It’s About Time

-

 I died nearly twice in the past fifteen years.  The next major event just might end my life, so I try to just take it easy.  My philosophy about life has changed for many reasons.  It might seem that having an experience with Angels might be THE definitive event in a life, but instead of waiting to die I await the coming of the Messiah.  

My heart functions at about 50%, so I try to avoid stress as much as I can.  I take medication for both my heart and my mind as I know myself quite well.  My son gave me his old Apple Watch I wear religiously.  If I should fall and get hurt, I can send as SOS message to my wife.  It detects falls.  It can do an EKG but I have yet to figure that function out.  

Stress, however, is my worst enemy.  It not only can affect my heart, but my mind as well.  I check my heart beats per minute every so often and I can pretty much guess what the results are.  I am very much in tune with both my heart and my mind.  And if I do get stressed, I need time to destress.  

I use my time wisely even though it seems I just sit and smoke a pipe.  Our house here in NY is a bi-level house with living quarters upstairs and laundry and garage downstairs.  Every year I have to get used to the stairs.  The pace of life is much slower here in NY and by the time I decompress we have to leave.  We’ll be making our stays here in NY longer and I think my heart will appreciate that.  

I’m smoking my Peterson Irish Harp pipe this morning.  I brought with me eight or nine pipes and I think it is the only straight pipe I brought.  My tobacco this morning is Peter Stokkebye’s Proper English.  My coffee this morning is Lavassa coffee.  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...

Pipes and Other Things

-
 If anything happened to my pipes or my new cabinet or anything else I might own, they are only things.  I can live without things.  I don't drink enough alcohol to be an alcoholic, for example, so no, I don't need alcohol.  I'm writing this today as a reminder as to why I smoke a pipe.  I smoke a pipe for meditative purposes and for relaxation.  There are  no other reasons why I smoke a pipe.  I am not addicted to my pipes or the tobacco I put in them.   It is a known fact  that cigarette smokers smoke cigarettes because they are addicted to them.  I watch a lot of YouTube videos and one video I watched was about tobacco commercials from the late fifties through the sixties.  Those commercials sold cigarettes as pleasure and enjoyment with no mention of nicotine in any of the two hour video of ads.  The emphasis was on what cigarettes could do for you.  A lot of research and planning went into the filters of cig...

More about Love

 Ask my wife, I can get irritated.  But someone said to me that I don’t get angry.  I avoid anger as much as I can.  It’s not subconscious, but I consciously avoid anger.  Irritation is about as far as I will go.  I’ve had enough anger in me to last several lifetimes.  Probably the same is true of irritation.  God and I have a lot of talks when I get irritated about life.   I think that is one reason I like to be alone a lot and limit my social interactions.  It’s like fingernails on a chalkboard.  The sound is irritating.  But I’ve learned irritation is okay but anger isn’t.  And it’s been this way for the past 32 years.  I CAN get angry.  It’s not that I can’t.  But anger for me solves nothing.  I make my thoughts known and move on.   Some people seethe in anger.  It’s just not there for me.  I work hard at keeping anger subdued.  It’s the same with hatred.  It’s not in me to ...
