Actually, when we take a long, intentional step back so that we can stop and look at what the hell we’re doing, life is just life. As some here know, I read the bible and have since around age twelve. Adam and Eve are the culprits who made all of our lives difficult from merely eating one piece of fruit that God told them not to. Typical human behavior, right? Evidently, not at first. At first the planet we live on was perfect and all things needed by human beings grew in abundance. Hungry? Pick a piece of the best, most nourishing fruit ever produced and sate your hunger immediately. The truth is, what the Earth was then was unbelievable to our standards of now.
Well, that was over a month ago now wasn’t it? Quite a long time before now and look where we’ve gotten on our own, without God. It figures, doesn’t it? For some you will say, no, it doesn’t figure but you’re missing the entire point aren’t you? I mean, do you think it is an accident of physical laws that the Earth is the only planet that we can find that supports this abundance of life? Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Pluto, etc. No life, not a hint of anything living and no damned air either. If an atmosphere outside of Earth exists it isn’t good for life. Ours is GREAT for life. We even have water to drink, or beer, or whiskey, or vodka. We figured out how to get drunk eons ago. We learned to ski on water in all its forms including snow and we have mountains with ski lifts that our brains figured out how to utilize for recreation or, re-creation if you want to call it that. Nah, we’re spoiled brats aren’t we. We have all we need provided by a planet so rich in resources that we go to protest our own politics, Brats!
Well, how is this for a sermon? It is a sermon I learned the hard way through combat. Talk about not taking things for granted! Go watch your buddy get his head blown off and then tell me I am full of it. The odd thing is that I am not an angry person. When I was young I figured out all kinds to ways to ruin my life and my health. When God swung his club and struck me in the noggin, putting me in the hospital, I had to think twice and figure out how far off the rails I had allowed myself to fall. Fashion only goes so far if the person in that pretty dress, low cut to reveal her wonders, without taking a step back to consider creation and its wonders. This I did because pretty dresses and cleavage do a person no good if they can’t breathe or have ceased breathing. Then they rot, and that is the brass ring of life that awaits quietly until you screw up your life by thinking pretty thoughts. As I see it, life is not pretty and those who want pretty are terribly dissatisfied so they strike out at imaginary villains for imaginary reasons because they failed when it came to clear thought of who they are and what they have.
Then again, there are government bullies and judicial morons who have gotten together to create this surreptitious mess. Oh well. I choose to stay away from all of this nonsense. Is it lunch yet?
