I had reached my own home. Had days and nights with my girl-friend, my good woman, my wife. She walked the last few kilometers with me on my walking trip from Melbourne through Bendigo, to our home in Orange. I might have actually walked 500 miles to her door. I felt very glad. Then somehow I wrecked it up, by shopping for an hour at Aldi's while she waited at home…
After a sleep, just before my alarm went off, I wakened with this understanding, that came as I pulled at and followed, the thread: (thank you for your help creative love)
Oh God, I failed quite miserably, I see,
last night, to soak misunderstanding up
and just keep passing on your love to me,
to who's around me, like a hose or cup.
It's true I sat a while within my own..
my feelings of dis-or-i-ent-a-tion;
instead of running, lashing out. I've grown
3 minutes worth of sitting - not quite patient.
And too, I realized my "tit for tat"
responses were not what you've called me to,
and said I didn't want to kindle that,
but I'd already done it. Trina, you
were patient, and you didn't "take the bait"
which I had, in bad form, thrown in the mix.
I thank you for that sense you've had of late,
not escalating when I try to fix
things up, yet muddy many things much more.
It's like I needed a mis-un-der-stand-
ing to come up, to push my buttons for
the world, and me, to see how things will land
and how true is this love I speak of much.
Well, there I had a chance last night again.
A test, to see if I'm really in touch
with this creative love, I walk with when
I walk Australian roads, another day
from bottom to the top. I'm not strong yet.
But you, creative love, helped me this way,
to see, to call for help, and just to "let…"*.
* the loving creator says "Let… there by light; … there be a vault between the waters to separate water from water; …the water under the sky be gathered to one place, and let dry ground appear; …the land produce vegetation: seed-bearing plants and trees on the land that bear fruit with seed in it, according to their various kinds; …there be lights in the vault of the sky to separate the day from the night, and let them serve as signs to mark sacred times, and days and years; …the water teem with living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth across the vault of the sky; … the land produce living creatures according to their kinds: the livestock, the creatures that move along the ground, and the wild animals, each according to its kind; …us make mankind in our image, in our likeness, so that they may rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky, over the livestock and all the wild animals, and over all the creatures that move along the ground.’ Gen. 1:6, 9, 11, 14, 20, 24, 26
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.
