A parsec is a bit over three light years. Billions of parsecs from Earth lie fully formed galaxies. To get there now we’d need to travel at billions of times the speed of light.
I have a problem with going very fast... ANYthing can kill me if I bang into it. I’d need to invent a force field which deflects everything coming my way. Hmm... problem is I can’t deflect planets so I’d need to be able to deflect myself around the obstacle. Hmm ... it wouldn’t be a straight line trip.
Perhaps you could change the vibratory rate so that you effectively pass through the very matter of the physical universe. That would allow for an amazing ride through the centres of stars on the way from here to there. A straight line, - transcending time?
What’s wrong with me and thee?
Most of us are intimately connected with someone who has a disability. It may not be obvious, it may not be seen as such. It may just be a limitation.
I took my electric guitar to work and gave it to a client who not only loves music but also has the ability to operate record players, DVD’s and all the paraphernalia we now have.... which is more than I can do. I showed him how to pluck a string and how to place a finger on the neck of the guitar - upon that same string - and by lifting the finger on and off - to produce a different note. He doesn’t ‘get it.’ He enjoyed twenty minutes of playing and he probably will understand the connection given both time and interest.
Two parents, both deaf since birth, want a child and want it deaf. They don’t see their deafness as a disability and thus see no problem in their mindset. This is just playing with words. The Disability ‘industry’ does it all the time with clever slogans such as “Don’t ‘dis’ my ability.” Very clever and changes nothing about the underlying reality.
Take away one of my senses and I am diminished. I know other senses pick up the slack but I’m still diminished.
Take away ‘common sense’ and we’re all diminished and yet it’s not regarded as one of the five primary senses. This is a hidden disability which permeates humanity. I still smoke. Pretty stupid when all’s said and done.... even if it is ‘roll yer own’ and thus without the additives. The tobacco industry tut tuts about a price rise because “It will encourage the ‘underground tobacco’ growers.” Ho hum. Just as well that the sixth sense is intuition.
We come into the world naked and fully formed. A practice of circumcision arises in very dry climates which may have had some hygienic aspect but nothing else to recommend it. A very sick mindset arises which suggests that some divine entity actually requires these tiny shreds of flesh. What a crap entity to ask for such nonsense. Of course no such entity worth bothering about has EVER asked for this yet, on it goes from generation to generation and - because men can’t deal with their own sexuality - women have their clitoris removed. What a convoluted balancing act. If the ‘Why?’ of ones actions cannot be explained without recourse to ‘Divine Perspiration’ then it’s rubbish.
Religion is squarely responsible for this tortuous obscenity. Yuuckavee !!! How hideous are these grey bearded elders from Islam and Judaism. How silent on such issues. How does such dull-eyed piety prevail ? It ain’t by rational thought and it is definitely and liberally marinated in hatred - of life itself.
On a more cheerful note - the sun is becoming active after a lull in sunspot activity..... ‘about to burp’ is - I think - the scientific description. This confuses the ‘global warming’ picture. What causes what?
I don’t like to think much on the collective madness which may prevail as 2012 draws closer.
Back to the blues. Hooray for four notes...... now where did I put my parsec?
