Some of what happened: Mon4July2022



As I was about to leave the house a mate rang. He was using a road trip as an opportunity to catch up. We talked for nearly two hours, from nearly 9am to ~10:45am… A great time to catch up, and he asked for another mate's number as we hung up. Time to catch up. How precious. He helped me understand one of my neighbours better too…


Around 2pm I arrived at this sign.

.

Though the sun is out at the mo. The sky is nearly completely overcast, and there's a cold wind.


About 1km to go till my rendezvous point with a mate in the next hour. He might even have a thermos with a hot cuppa!


By 2:15pm I'm at the meeting place. If he doesn't arrive by 3pm I'll walk on!



Well, he came. With a nice aeropress coffee, and a biscuit made in Adelaide by his sister. We talked about a novel he is reading, a spiritual thriller. Then we said our goodbyes. ~300 metres down the road, i said "Good day!" To a lady working in her front garden. And made a comment about her garden, or the weather. She asked me what I was doing, (and with enough satisfying answers, I suppose, she asked if I'd like a coffee. I gladly accepted one, which she made back in her kitchen, and we talked with me finishing the coffee in the front yard. 

Then I helped Evon with some mattock work on a clump of plants that needed resettling in another spot, said "Good bye",

 .

walked only 200m from Evon's kind hospitality before my own good woman tooted the horn behind me, and picked me up,

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.
