Hey Mickey

Feeling old?

or feeling young?

Feeling old or young ? That's a hard question to answer.

The way i figure it .... we're all going through the changes from cradle to grave. The trick to living life to the fullest is to fully embrace every stage of life as it comes and passes along to the next. You roll with the changes.

You see ...if you live for the past ... you have no future. I've noticed that people in their 80's tend to do that. They tell their stories of how things used to be. I like collecting people's stories. I was talking with a fulla in his 90's last year. He was getting near the end and his organs were starting to shut down. He passed along his stories of being a pilot in World War 2. How he used to make cargo runs into China to help support the war effort against the Japanese invaders there. He's gone now but i carry his living memories. ( It was a very different world back then. )

Perhaps ... i will pass my stories along to the next generation when my time comes too.

Isn't life grand ! If we live to the fullest ... and play our cards right ... it all comes full circle and that little spark of the divine in all of us returns to the source.

We finally break the cycle of reincarnation and ascend to a higher order of being where we become one with everything.

I believe that $TRE$$ is a BIG factor in what makes people feel old.

I'm very good at avoiding stress as I have a very good understanding of what causes stress.

I'm still living my "childhood dreams" and I'm now over 65.

I'm still much the same as I was when I was 4 as I wasn't your "normal" 4 year old.

Free your mind and your body will follow as best as it can.

I dunno ... i looked it up in the ancient manuscript of the Dao Te Ching and you might have been a rock in your last lifetime incarnation CD. Rocks have a consciousness of sorts but they don't do much ... they just sort of sit there and watch the world go by. Maybe you will come back as a tree the next time around.

That would be the next step up in the growth & evolution of your spirit.

You sure are very superstitious and ritualistic.

There may be some TRUTH in what you believe,
but it's much like believing in santa clause with the truth being the presents under the xmas tree.

What I understand and believe is far beyond your understanding as that is what you choose.

The words and examples of what I believe and understand are not available as this is a vague vague world by design.

The "GOD" of all that I know can not be named or described.

The best description I can give is that the "GOD" I know is ALL.

That rock or tree are much the same.

I don't see much difference between cats, dogs and humans.

Some tools in the shed are sharper then others with most being dull and believing they are sharp or can become sharp.

< Gentle laughter >

Some guys just have no sense of humor.

The Dao Te Ching was a dead giveaway dude ! A mix of Hindu and Animist belief systems ? That's like chocolate in your peanut butter. You shoulda called bull$hit on that one and then we could both have had a good laugh.

Come to think of it ... i suppose you did in your own fashion.

Didn't realize you wanted me to try and snatch the pebble from your hand.
