The Blind Man Society

I’m having computer issues lately, sorry that its been a while since the last blog!  I was writing in my journal today, and thought I would share the entry…

I wrote a long time ago, that tangling with the gods is a really bad idea.  Either their brethren get angry or jealous and fry the hero, or the patron god becomes angry at some point, usually over a woman. 

Either way, there will always be special people out there, and special opportunities to shine.  All of us have so many good things waiting down the road, because the bad times, be it days or years, pass.  And, I don’t think we know about these good things on purpose.  Because, being human, we might screw them up by accident or on a bad day.

So, things remain hidden in this life, and around the world.  And, I think, its definitely on purpose.  I have met some incredible people, and done some incredible things in this life now.  But, I remain humble, even though some women like an arrogant man.

I think, its all happening the way it should.  People, far smarter than me handle things, and I really go on the two most important things in life.  Faith, and hope.  Don’t ever lose these two things because to quote the movie Platoon, keeping your powder dry, and something something, and the worm turning are great things.  

No wine before its time.  People are capable of speeding a lot up.  But, I think, it needs to happen naturally, as God intended for it to be the best.  Chickens that grow from egg to production scares me honestly, thought I still buy and enjoy chicken like everyone else.  I only mention this because the idea of instant gratification is best saved for kids and ramen noodles at three minutes.

I wrote this morning that I have learned a lot.  But for me, it has brought peace to understand some things better.  For some, that is not the case.  I guess, its different for everyone. 

But, and it just got awful quiet out here, I guess this (me talking to myself out loud as I write this) might be heard, everything is happening as it should – I still believe this.  The ideas of balance, moderation and yin and yang still hold true.  So, to those living as shooting stars out there, slow down and find your balance.  Fast cars and fast women are phases, and to master the art of balance is to live a long life, a happy life, and an art form.  Maybe, THE art form.

I’m feeling pretty thoughtful today, and just needed to jot down a few thoughts. Sometimes at night, rarely during the day, I look up.  And, I think to myself that this world is too perfect to have been an accident.  I believe, that something up there, keeps an eye on me.  It’s the only explanation I have…and because I’ll never know or solve it, it remains a very safe and interpretive thought – something that maybe, I can chew on for the rest of my life.

I still remember some brushes with things that left me amazed that I made it through them.  But, I think there’s truth that ALL of us have some kind of purpose and mission – work to do in this life. 

Well, enough random thoughts for one day. Time to go home….
