~We build walls around ourselves.. we ‘think’ for our protection…

~The next time your wall gets knocked down..

don’t be in such a hurry to build it back up again,

and be open to the fresh wind that enters your space…

you've got to be 'outside the box'...

If heaven is everything we could ever want, and death leaves friends and some loved ones behind on earth.. How could this be everything we have ever wanted?.. If our dearest ones are not with us, how could our desire be fulfilled?
This question found roots from a previous post… Let’s explore it more.
We don’t have a definitive answer, but we do have conjecture based on hints revealed to us.

We would be in the Presence of God.. and “God Is”..
Therefore Heaven would feel as ‘Present and Eternal’!
Maybe we’ll see everything as current, or unbound and released from time?

We need to think beyond our normal senses. Perhaps we will see with enhanced eyes instead of the limited ones we have on earth. If we are fortunate to get into Heaven, our understanding will be complete and in union with God and we will understand beyond our earthly capacity. After we pass this veil, all souls will understand and thus no yearning other than God and God’s will, will quench our restlessness. Even the souls in hell, will accept this as they bathe in the burn of God’s love. And this is also a very good reason for the purifying flames of purgatory; to gives us worthiness.

It could be compared with the way a fetus understands the universe of it’s ‘womb’, as compared to not comprehending the outside (or our) universe. In this sense, we are like a baby in the womb… We can’t imagine (as a baby in the womb) what our hands and feet will be used for; and in this vein, perhaps our mind and soul will be more essentially vital than their current restricted uses!

Therefore the earth is a nursery for heaven..
Hopefully our soul is not lost or aborted!
Our physical body is merely the box that our soul comes in..
And we must learn to think outside this box…

Judge in California rejects the 'will of the people'!...

When the ‘proposal 8’ was recently overturned in California, it shows that even democracy isn’t allowed when bias has a bias. This judge has opened up a ‘Pandora’s box’ that will surely haunt his decision.

Is his statement summary it was so noted that, “to marry the person of one's choice is a fundamental right”.. Really now..? .. ‘a fundamental right to choose a partner’..hmmm…

Why stop at homosexuals and lesbians?
It would be discrimination not to allow bi-sexuals..they should be able to have at least 3 in a marriage.. and why stop at three, four, five or be limited to a number?

What about human and animal relationships? Surely the judge allowing people to choose partners can’t mean that a 55 year old man shouldn’t be able to choose a 5 year old boy and girl and a dog as his partners? Sadly the absurdity can be substituted in all his points of ruling. His logic is anything but…

Neither can he claim scientific reasoning, because science puts an end to his theory. Both science and once again the Church are correct; that marriage by definition is between a male and female and these are the necessary natural ingredients required for a family. He should look at the guidelines that nature, has naturally provided; and remember that laws are formed as a set of norms to halt the obscene.

May this ‘Pandora’s box’ be reversed!

What time is it in heaven?

God is present in present time.. because God is…

We were not.. but now are.. and will be from now on…
We cannot fully grasp the idea that a past and a future does not exist with God…
Because ‘time’ is our measuring stick of being; and God stands outside of ‘time’

Q: What time is it in heaven?
A: It isn’t

Our past has passed but still exists… it can be re-visited in memory..
Our present… dies almost immediately and transforms into the past..
Our future… just became the present.. but now has passed..
So, how long then, is the present?

Why can we imagine something we did not yet experience?
Imagine sitting on a beach and enjoying a drink (soda with lime on ice), and talking with a friend (one who has died). Now move this thought to a mountaintop ski resort and change the drink to hot cider and change friends (one you haven’t seen in years).
In an instant you can create a parallel world that takes practically no time to make and no time to travel to…
How can our mind be in the present, but travel into the future and past?

We are created in the ‘image’ and ‘likeness’ of God..
Is image short for imagine; which is our intangible mind?
Does likeness, mean similar yet incomplete?
If something is ‘like’ something, it cannot be the same.

Perhaps in heaven, time unfolds as being present? This would help us unravel another mystery. If heaven is everything we could want; how could we feel satisfied if we leave loved ones behind? With no time, there’d be no past or future to impede things…

While heaven does not measure time; we seem to expeditiously be running out of it!
