Time Flies

I began a post last night which I will probably reread to see where I was going with it as I know I was stunned by a photo of a former student of mine at his son's wedding.  It shocked me to realize how we all age so fast and there is absolutely nothing we can do about the fact of time marching on.

I am at the age where I think of when I will pass away, yet i have not made any funeral arrangements or cremation arrangements. I must do that this year while I am thinking of it.  I have more or less decided that I will live into my 80's since my family has a history of longevity, and frankly, I lead the kind of life where very little is likely to cause an early demise. I am a bit reclusive, guarded, and very health and safety conscious.  I do stay aware of all my health problems, and try to prevent anything happening to me.  I lead what is known as a safe life style, but the simple truth is I was a bit of a daredevil when I was younger but I grew out of that risk taking lifestyle as I aged and settled down.

I am not afraid of death as I do believe that spiritually we live and leave our bodies behind but I have not delved into any of the places where spirit goes simply because I have faith in my past life recollections enough to know that we must rest somewhere in between the lives we spend on earth.

I had a dream this morning which really made me think about life eternal and planet earth. It reminded me a lot of the water on the floor recently last February when I had my infection and was trying to cure it.  I was looking into the sky and seeing visions. It was as if I were getting messages that finally concluded with my realizing what the messages meant to me. They did begin with a dinosaur and then images would come and go and finally ended with Australia. It was a type of recurring dream but I did finally put it together a bit.  I am wondering about Australia now with its kangaroos and koala bears.   I do not believe that they exist anywhere  else on the planet.  So it is interesting to me to see Australia pop up again in my dream.

I realized a sense of myself then too and who I am to receive all this information, and to see it unfold before my eyes.  It is one of those type dreams that one thinks is significant in many ways. I got the feel of extinction since dinosaurs were first, and they have now gone extinct.  I thought that as each vision passed and was immediately followed by another that it was watching the passing of nations before my eyes as well as species.  It was a kind of time lapse and Australia was last to go.

But never fear, a new world would come into being...it is that easy to create a new world...

I am a firm believer in creationism, but not in the sense that the church probably thinks of it, according to the book of Genesis. I think of it as a blueprint attracting matter to it in small particles and each growing and developing into a full grown species, plant or animal, planet or star, etc.  It all begins with the outline and then is filled in...each atom being attracted to it like in magnetic attraction. I know that this is the way the earth and the universe began...I simply know it as I have seen it.

That is all for now.
