Wavy Reality

The past two days (May 3 and 4, 2022) have been filled with visual and audible hallucinations, ranging from human voices to mere undulations of perceived visual reality . Just making note. Changes may follow as necessary.

"Hugs Are Okay"

There are few experiences more fulfilling to parents than watching their children immersed in the joy of life: playing, exploring, learning and inevitably growing up. My oldest daughter, Mindy, has always been possessed of that rare and wonderful spirit that not only inspires by example but also fills the world around her with love. It is that undeniable spirit that is occasionally beset with the kind of earthly trials that are meant to help us grow as children of our Heavenly Father. It is one of life's ironies that these times of testing seem to come more frequently to those who are strongest, those who have long since been proven in adversity, those who are loved for what they have already given to a world so in need of their special gift. When for a very long time I was not able to be with Mindy and her sister Fiauna, I often recalled not only their times of joy but their times of pain and fear, when as a consoling father I held them and loved them that much more.

The vast universe of cable TV has a rich assortment of exciting documentary programs with which one may expand his or her awareness of things unexplained. I refer mostly to the sudden explosion of material dealing with paranormal phenomena: hour upon hour dedicated to the proposition that all spirits are created equal - or are they?

And who hasn't been persuaded by all that eyewitness evidence of Sasquatch, the Loch Ness Monster, and all the other creatures lurking in the wilderness? Well, in our home there is at least one true believer. I'm learning new and exciting things about the nature of life and the origins of the universe. Finally, it all makes sens...

So What's Wrong with a Little Magic?

Some of the people I talk to say I engage in “magical thinking.” They maintain that I sometimes ascribe illogical outcomes to actions I take, or on the other hand I tend to attribute the cause of some experiences and developments to strange, mystical factors. It is decidedly untrue, and I can prove it using geometric logic, a branch of reasoning I learned from Humphrey Bogart. Just because I think there are causes for certain things that are not immediately apparent, and just because I don’t always trust my subjective impression of reality, and just because others may think I am illogical, there is no reason to assume I am necessarily wrong in my thinking. You see, I am convinced that we are all affected very much in our lives by the thoughts of others. Wait, before you line up to sign my commitment papers, let me explain. We all have prejudices, ways of categorizing what we experience. It's not malicious. It's a means of survival in a complex, confusing and sometimes downright...
