RANDOM THOUGHTS
I need to write thoughts as they come to mind in no planed order.
We, you and I, are in search of the highest truth we can find. It is good to be in good company. Prior to Medium I have felt like a lone searcher, on the outside. It is now refreshing and rewarding to find others I have met only in exchanging notes who walk the same path.
We represent many different ages and histories, but we discover much commonality. We are all discovering what it means to be human.
As Marcus AKA Gregory Maidman says, “… alone but not lonely”.
At age 87, recovering from a broken hip, I have thought much more about death. This thinking is awakening, not morbid.
An important commonality we share is that we all die. At least our bodies die. As I understand it, we go on. This is good.
This world is a strange combination of light and dark, beauty and horror, heaven and hell. It is a good place for learning. These greatly disparate extremes are not by accident, nor are they punishment. This is a school.
Even now I suspicion I will publish this to see if others share some of these thoughts. I suspect some of you do, but you may not be inclined to respond. This is no big deal. Just talk, from one loner to another.
We can look at the headlines and see the interesting place we share: Trump, wars, threats of greater war, disaster, UFO/UAP, Hollywood, football, and other sports continue.
