Steve Marshall @Shiva49 That is a long time after the initial issue, and it shows that time is often immaterial, as things happen for us only when we are ready for them to happen. God's time is not our time, until he makes it so. In my dreams, we talk to each other...

Steve Marshall Flipped upside down, and caught fire, that is a nasty situation to be in, and it was good that she was rescued before getting even more worsely burnt by the fire.

Steve Marshall In a groggy state like that, the cat was lucky not to have been hit by a car. He must have slipped out when someone opened the door at the vet's office.

Steve Marshall @Shiva49 That is very interesting, that karma like that can be resolved in dreams, even when someone involved has died. I knew that people can come into our dreams who have died, as my mother, and father have done many times since they died, but I never...

Steve Marshall @Shiva49 Yes, I am surprised how the world does seem to keep going, when so much is against it, so-called global warming, war after war, droughts, floods, illness, and yet it keeps marching steadily on, until now. Hope is what must be driving it, our hope,...

Steve Marshall @Shiva49 Yes, even my own mother claimed that she could see her mother there waiting for her, shortly before she died. There is more here than meets the eye, and much food for thought, in some of these anecdotes about death, and dying.

Steve Marshall I have heard of "Mr Ed" the talking horse, but this takes the cake, "Ed" the talking zebra. It seems to be possible to keep all manor of animals as pets in the United Sates. They should be properly penned in though, as nobody wants to be chased by Mr ED, the...

Steve Marshall I am a bit wary about compulsive behaviours, as they could turn to compulsive obsessive behaviour, which can be a problem, as it was for my father, who had to go around with a pen, and paper, to check if all windows were closed, and all doors locked, whenever...

Steve Marshall @Shiva49 Plus a third option, might come in too, if God decided just to take him, for his own reasons. It is said that some masters know when they are going to die, and die on cue, but this would mean that they could twist God's arm somewhat, and I doubt if...

Steve Marshall Most kids like to be creative, I think too. I used to like to make up my own board games when I was a kid. When my brother's boy came over, when I was an adult, already, I would resurrect my old games, and get him to add his own touches to them too.

Steve Marshall Who made the evil parts in us then? I believe our basic blueprint was for good, and when we move ourselves away from being at one with God, we create a division in ourselves then, where evil is then created in the other side of the division.
