Monday 25 July 2022CE further towards Narrabri..



Time during the night hours to think about moving forward with creative love, that is a boss god, when it comes to creating and unconditional positive regard, reflecting on the wisdom coming from this god to do with ways and means.



Wake, fill up with tank water, say "Goodbye" to Narelle, 

.

at her place,

.

take my spare tyre, and head to a men's get-together at a cafe down the road over breaky. 

Men's Breaky and discussion for men of very varied background. An amazing experiment to see how, and on what principle or connection or commitment is it possible for people with different mindsets to discuss topics that are dear to each of them. I'm on a sort of pilgrimage, and I asked them if they would be willing to turn anyvremembrance of me into a kind of "prayer", or conversatio  with the creator about me. They agreed to. I was so glad I'd spent another morning back in Coona, if it means that half a dozen men will keep me in their prayers. Actually made me appreciate prayer, and my prayer for others much more. Missed a photo of this bunch, rats.

Paul took me to a tyre specialty shop, where Warren said that the flat tyre that I had brought was thin and disintegrating and had been pierced 2ce and its strings would likely make a hole in a new tube too. He sent us to get new bearings (the only two in town, two more would have to be  ordered in. Then he put the bearings in, got me a thick new tyre, and tube and put goop in, put it all together, and said "Let's make it $20.00!" Thanks Warren! He's about to head to the top of Cape York Peninsular this Thursday (by car, and)  a different route to me. All the best mate. 

.

New tyres, those from HOME Hardware didn't fit the length of my axle. I ended up tryi g the yelliw foam ones from the Crazy Prices store, then off to Paul and Lyn's to get my clothes and catch up a bit over a cuppa with an old friend (LiYean) who now lives in Coona with her husband of 2 years, whom I met at the Men's breaky this morning. Lyn on left, and LiYean on Right:

.

Then Paul drove me out of town to where my trolley had been hidden.  i put the new wheels on 

 

and the spare might now be the best one I have, thanks to Warren. Then Paul

 .

who'd driven me out, kindly took the old intact tyres off my hands and drove off.

.

I walked on, thinking of how to be a blessing to the people who pass me, and making up & singing songs that way…   

.

i made about 13km today (72km to go to Narrabri). See how I go in the morning. 

A lot learned today. IAnd a heart full of thankfulness as I fell asleep were I was.









OLD TO NEW WORLD VIEW



Despite that science tells us "This world is

not what it seems on outside, to the feel,

with layers upon layers forming things",

I still believe that our ol' world is real.


Our scientific story tells us that

despite what we all see here (think we "know"),

there's layers of "community" which mat

together, and which interleave.. (quite so):《1


Inside, within each body, making up

the living ones, are individu'l "cells",

or living creatures that can be corrupt-

ed, or combined to make a host where dwells


the multicelled "community" we see

that's planted right before us "on" (or "in")

our ground of being. Even you and me.

And these can be disrupted or can win!


The ways that these communities would seize

things 'round about to aid their tiny parts,

to work together: shelter, feed, and ease

their life, to bring a thriving from their starts,


are called in this Our world "to feed", & "clothe

and shelter", self or fam'ly, other lives.

The old words from Our world that covered both

are "love", & then there's "peace"- which meant "life thrives".


But smaller yet, each body that exists,

of rocks, or gasses, animals or plants;

(and irrespective of "life" tagged to its

existence as an entity, per chance..)


is made of smaller atoms, molecules,

or other things that kind of are like "seas".

But smaller yet (these aren't just words of fools)

are forces "circling", balancing with ease.


Where either particles or waves "impart"

existence to those higher levels too.

But here we haven't even made a start

on bigger things, like Galaxies and U-


ni-verse, or other categ'ries rehearsed,

like Supernova, Nebulae, and Giants,

Dwarves, and other stars that shoot and burst,

to cook up compounds, elements and ions


from which all of the rest can start to "be".

Invisible dimensions in this way

we start to understand, and maybe "see"

within our "mind's eye" - as they used to say.


But still our story makes more sense, or less

of all dimensions we've encountered here,

since we were born - to order and to mess,

with this ol' world. - And this is where I cheer


myself as I move on, and others too.

The world we "started" in, that let us learn

about dimensions and these worlds that you

have just now been reminded of, don't spearn!


The story that's apparent: God made this

whole world with more dimensions than you'd poke

at with a stick, does not seem so remiss

and starts to look less like it was a joke!


"The best is yet to come", as AA found

in fact, through living in this re-al world.

And there's a higher power hanging round

to see if we would reach out and be curled


within the love of biggest Dad, or Mum,

and let the Great Creator's fam-il-y

look after us and grow us, and then some..

towards more of a nature that is free


to love back, as we have ourselves been loved.

And that's why most religions in this world

admire, and think good-life was surely gloved

within the life, that we have mostly hurled


our insults at, and blamed him for our faults

and misdemeanours, laziness, and such.

It's him I would commend to you. Us dolts,

we killed the model human God loved much -


the second Adarm (and would kill his Eve,

that God brings from him while he's "not around").

In jealousy and ignorance, we'd weave

a net to catch them yet, like beasts been found


and named. So if you ask me to I'll tell

the story of the glory of God "THERE",

who loves his kids, and wants them to do well,

take on creative love, and learn to share.
