The Zen master, Herclys Yerklin, was giving a lecture to his students about energy. "Energy is not energy until it is energy," he said. "Can anyone work out the reason for that truth?" he then asked his...

Do you need a Funtervention? How about a Fun Audit? Catherine Price, a 42-year-old writer and consultant from Philadelphia, thinks you probably do. She doesn't think I do, mind you, because no one has more fun than I do. A lot...

Steve Marshall @xander6464 The scientists claim that the Earth will be engulfed by the sun at some time in the future. So, we will have to have progressed enough by then to have moved elsewhere before that happens. I suppose life is just what it is. A window into itself...

Steve Marshall @xander6464 If God really existed, it would be a game-changer for me. There would be more motivation for me to live here gainfully, as I would be expecting to still carry some of the learning over with me, and it would not be lost. To me, most lives are...

It is said that people are divided into people who can only see white (which is good) or black (which is bad). However, there are also those who see the whole range of colors and life is not only good or bad, there are many shades...

Steve Marshall At times, I would agree that a firm position causes more trouble than what it is worth, but at other times, I feel that it is right to stick to our guns too. A chameleon type, who just changes to match the environment and people around them, is not much use...

Steve Marshall @xander6464 Yes, I suppose so, but I don't really like to think that my whole life is based around chance, coincidence, and the luck of the draw. It sort of deflates my heart a bit, and my incentive/motivation to live fully here. If it is all a game of...

Steve Marshall @DocAndersen Perhaps, we should just drop that yoke (yolk), into a frying pan, and make a good meal out of it then. We might even see the whites of God's eyes, by our so doing....lol...as if all we have is the yoke, God will add the extra whitening ingredients...

God broke himself into pieces for us, but we ourselves are not really broken. We are not damaged, impaired, or imperfect, we are unbroken perfection, just incomplete. We can help restore God to being himself, by...

Steve Marshall @Shiva49 Still, let's hope that the pandemic's reach does not stretch beyond God's reach too, as he has always outreached everything else up until now, to ensure our survival here, so far.

Steve Marshall @DocAndersen If God's art can even stop him in his tracks, what he creates must be bigger than his own bigness at times, and so expand him, from himself too, blowing him bigger, like a balloon, by his filing himself with more love, and puffing himself up like...

Steve Marshall @xander6464 Yes, that is a hard question to answer. I see it working like this. God is total positivity, but when he created, and allowed his creation to have freedom, he allowed them to drop down from total positivity, and make choices from a lesser...

Steve Marshall I guess to have fun connects you to the funny, and when you see the funny side of life, it lifts you away from the sharpness of the bluntness of the negative experiences. You take life for what it is, rather than for what you blame about it being the way it...

Steve Marshall @DocAndersen Or, if we can see independently of God, are these sights worthy of seeing, without God in them? God is perhaps the binoculars that we need to extend our own vision with, and so without this extension, we just see things as they are, to our...

Steve Marshall @Shiva49 Yes, in most religions, for some reason, there are middlemen (and women) between us and God, Saints, ministers, Spiritual gurus/masters, and the like. I guess there is a place for most sorts in God's scope though, and he lets them all be for now.

Steve Marshall @Shiva49 Tough love, or child abuse. These days the line is more thin. I think I mentioned before that my grandfather did the same to my father. He took my father to a deep dam, and threw him in, and he said to him, "If you have not learnt to swim by the...
