back from nowhere

hi all that read this silly blog! i am alive though i did check out nowhere for a small while. i realized that it is a comforting and safe place, it is not near as fun as anything abstract or rhetoric or try avoidance. so on my trip to nowhere land i discovered and learned many a thing. i will now share my wealth of experience with you fine folk so that you do not waste your time traveling there.



First, and most important, the food was horrible! Dried cactus would have been better than the food served here. as a result i ate very little and started resembling a skeleton. do not worry, though, because tonight i feasted on burritios with hamburg, ketsup, cheese, lettuce, and pickle relish, and a glass of a $6 bottle of wine. as unappealing as this may sound to you, this was absolutely wonderful and high class for a person returning from nowhere;



Lesson two deals with the irrevelancy of generalities. Every person is different than everyone else, even if they have similar qualities or reactions. For example, specimen A has x, y, z, and l qualities, while specimen B has x, y, z, and r qualities. It does not matter that there are many similar qualites, because the one difference is what sticks out and it impacts the other qualities so much that when viewed as a whole the two people are completely different.



the next thing i learned in nowhere is that immature boys will act the opposite that they feel. if they like you, they will show the world that they cannot stand you. what is the deal with that? i never understood that, yet i know it to be true.



so nowhere land was much like never-never-land, except no peter pan, pirates, or lost boys. it is a never ending island of trees, lagoons, mountains, and silence. the silence was so thick that it was oppresive. one, me, would make noise just to hear noise. while that thought is both unwise and unappealing, no one else was around to interfere or offer a different standard. the scenery was so gorgeous and amazing that it overwhelmed me to the point that i had to tell everyone i know about this great place, but no one else was there, and there was no way to contact everyone. the unfulfilled urge to speak about this wonderful place, was intoxicating, frustrating, and maddening. i felt like jeremiah when he swore that he would not talk about jehovah anymore. the words and desire burned in me and i had to let it out. i made many friends with the rocks and trees.



another point i would like to discuss is dishonesty. the majority of people that we meet each day do not view lying as a serious wrong. in fact they sometimes feel like they are doing a person a favor by lying to them, and telling them what they want to hear, but it is crippling! As Jehovah's people, we are so used to speaking and accepting the truth from our brothers and sisters that we forget to be on guard against worldly people. No matter how nice they are, a lot of them have no problem with lying in order to benefit themselves or the situation. i have a bible study who i think is just saying that she wants to study in order to gain a companion to have fun with. i would go over to her side of town to study and she would have completely different ideas, and since i am a bit too easygoing, i went along with it, only to recognize her purposes later, with the help of Jehovah and one of His servents. since i have been doing things by the book, we have not studied. Satan is the father of the lie and so we need to be on guard against all non witnesses.



yeah that is all. enjoy.

what more could i ask for

Hello and welcome to my blog where the words and thoughts roll as smoothly as rocks on a pond....

paradigms shift

spinning, laughing, dancing, to her favorite song,

eyes wide open she is reborn in the freeness of the breeze,

falling to the ground, without a sound,

just a little girl with nothing wrong, and she's all alone.



~that was inspired by Nora Jones who has a song that contains some of those phrases.



in a world of perfection what would people do?

no faults around for them to pursue,

with judgemental criticism and narrow-mindedness.

all day, every day, the same,

no surprise jolts to wake us from this routine,

no mistakes to learn from.

integrity would be ingrained,

love would be understood.

no accidents, no need for insurance,

doctors, nurses, who needs them?

trees, rivers and streams will again rejoice,

mountains will reach up to the clouds,

the night sky will embrace the desert.

a uniform concept of living will be painted,

and all animals and the meek will concede.

but the world, what will the world do?
