Colloquial Transcendence

God is such a small word

Everything is vast

Observing the strain;

In the souls sound of silence

It's where you'll find me,

Because silence is my acceptance

In the quiet aspect of the mind,

Always pondering

yearning for truth above all else

That is where you'll find me.

I like this poem, syntax and semantics.

God is a hypothesis that has 2 faces, a smiling face and an angry one. Or this is how the legacy presents the hypothesis.

Often, when I come home feeling so weak, I get in a one way dialogue with the almighty… the ideal. I get no feedback but in the process I fall into sleep. Next morning, I wake up to see life as I lived it yesterday … as I saw it in the History books … It doesn’t get better!

I see people (us all of us) using the holy hypothesis to achieve their own self-interests … they use it as a tool, either as a carrot or as a stick.

Now, I remember an old poetry verse that says:

Take what you see and leave behind the hearsay,

Since you see the moon, do you need to seek Saturn?

===

I meant to say: all what we need in order to be fair with ourselves and with life is simple common sense. Is it that simple?

Pardon me, sometimes I talk too much.

"Take what you see and leave behind the hearsay"

Such a great statement. Thanks for your opinion.  Like Jimmeny Cricket said,  always let your conscience be your guide.  The sense of right and wrong.  I suppose it's as easy or as hard as we make it for ourselves, living the lives that we do.  But at the end of our days some of us will praise and others condemn, towards the dogmatic dynamics of our realities.  Praying helps at the end of the day.  Knowing theres something beyond all of us yet penatrates everything in the quantum ocean of space <--(what the heck is this guy talking about?) Consider a thought to be a stone that you can throw at anything anywhere in the ocean.  If you throw it hard enough, at someone be it of love, peace, hate any emotion; they'll feel it.  They'll get hit by the wave you created.  Sorry I'm rambling myself here too.  Take care HP.

I live by faith, otherwise I would have ended it long ago. I want to know everything that is here. I want Saturn, the moon is not enough. I want the stars, the site of the big bang, all of it. Why limit the imagination - why have faith and not believe in the receipt of answers in the reality of blessing to be found pressed all over your skin?

I have been shouting and wailing at God lately. Reality gets to that not so good point and spins as if on the tip of a very sharp push pen. It's not God's fault, it's ours.

I want change
I want it now
I want you to
participate
and I want you
to participate
now.

I want better
I want better now
I want you to help me
be and make better
every inch of space
inside everywhere.
.
I want good
I want you to be good
I want to see good
things come out
of your face
to live in this changed
and better and good place.
