Everything has a deeper meaning

During a recent conversation with my therapist, I brought up the subject that I think everything has a deeper meaning.

I do like to think about those deeper meanings when I have the time. There's a saying that we "make time for what's important". Which seems to be the well spring for this blog. I'm making time for deeper reflection because it is important to me.

What do you "make time" for? Creating music or art or poetry? I used to write so much poetry that Ifeel like it fell out of me when Iwalked. Do you make time for friends, family, pets or a social club? Alicia (my wife) and I play poker in the Elite Poker league. We play for different reasons. She is super social. Have you met her? That's why we get along so well in that we are complete opposites in every way, especially in that she is super social and well, I am NOT. I like to observe people's behavior and she likes to engage. SO poker is the perfect place for us both to participate in some of our favorite things.

Do you make time for fitness, or healthy lifestyle? In the summer, I swim every single day. Ido water aerobics in the mornings with all the old bitties at my camp, since I am a bittie too lol ! I then try to swim every day that the sun is out and believe me when Isay I pout around the whole day if the sun is not out on any of my days off.

What do you give your energy towards? Do you have a dream you are pursuing and or working towards? Are you trying to make a baby? (practice makes perfect as Ialways say.)

The deeeper meaning of this post is that everything we do has purpose. If one think otherwise, one is mostly just wasting time. Since time, energy and love are the most precious commodities we have, I try to waste very little of it.

Do you have to believe in God?

Do you have to believe in God? Wow what a loaded question! Recently, a new friend asked me this , thanks Dawn. How would I "do what I do" without a belief system that honors the Creator of the infinite universes in existence? I believe it would be impossible for me , but you may or may not be able to "do what you do" without that same belief system. When I say "do what you do" I mean, live your life. There are many components to living.. like how you do your work, parent your children, make your decisions about how you spend your time and energy and loyalty. You can function well without any sort of belief system that includes a scripted version of God/ess, Great Spirit, Higher consciousness... the God of your understanding for lack of anything else to say since the list could go on and on. You may simply prescribe to a moral code of right and wrong. Your code of ethics may be more or less evolved than that too. Who should say? We live in a ...

Luca This week, I got to spend some time with my 3 year old great-nephew Luca. We were playing outside where he has a play station that reminds me of a pirate ship, in the yard were some magnetic fishing poles...we used those poles to chase my sister's dog around. That dog is a Cane Corso, he's a 190 lb love muffin named Mac. We pretended that the dog was a huge fish, we laughed and got dirty and I got stuck trying to cram my fat ass in his pirate house and even knocked the doors off when I tried to climb out and FELL over. We laughed like 3 year olds do when they play. We eventually ended up in the front yard when Luca casually turned on the hose and well, my mom and I gave him a wet sweatshirt contest..LOL! This kid makes me laugh and remember why we do all the grown up things we do. We do them, so that we can love on our people. We do the things we do, because we have bills to pay and we have to make a living, but when it all boils down, what we really want is to laugh a...

Marianne submitted a question yesterday (Thanks for being the first one to raise your hand!!) Can you resolve a conflict with a parent after they are deceased? Reply: Yes and No. Yes in the aspect that a person's soul never dies and of course we all know the body does. So physical communication ends at the time of the corporeal demise, however...souls are still in existence and awareness. The soul crosses over into the light at some point (from minutes to weeks) after it has cut ties with the body. At that point the soul has an almost immediate sense of lightness and awareness of all the love that surrounds it. Then the soul has a chance to review life circumstances, making the soul aware of short comings and opportunities for healing. The soul may not be here to "talk" to you and work things out after physical death, but the soul CAN hear you and resolution may be, in fact. easier than when it was inhabited within a physical body with the ego and stubbornness and all ...
