It's Monday morning and the Sunday night syndrome got me thinking about what is real and what is not.
Maybe because it was Sunday I was thinking that spirituality is a vital human component. I'd like to express this to the world and this is probably my way. However, I don't like people shoving it down my throat, why should I do it to someone else. My version of spirituality may, or probably does, conflict with what others believe. I do not feel qualified to tell others they are absolutely wrong, but I know that those who think they are qualified probably aren't.
How can EVERYTHING be political? I think my razor cursed at me this morning for shaving the left side of my face first.
The baseball gods have a sense of humor. OK, this isn't really a spiritual issue but the fates of baseball cannot be called anything else. How else do you explain the Rays working so hard to get into first place only to lose to Seattle, have Minnesota also lose so that Tampa Bay couldn't gain on them and then New York wins a game in extra innings where two of the best closers in the game each blew a save. The Rays could have provided themselves a cushion with a win and Twins and Yankees losses but the gods do not want it to be easy.
Ichiro is worth the price of admission. However, I went to Sunday's game on someone else's ticket.
I'm learning photography. I don't care if I'm awful at it now. It will get better. I'll post some examples later.
At this time I want to do so many things with my career that it is hurting my chances of getting a job in any one area.
How do you KNOW any given detail and how it fits into the greater scheme of things? Hard to tell!
ReplyDeleteI believe that Spirituality is a great part of the full Human. I too think that my "version" of what constitutes that belief and practice are quite different from what a lot of others believe. I don't think that is bad, but I am conscious that I could cause someone harm if they are looking to me as an example. That is a responsibility that I believe we do have some burden.
I am not sure EVERYTHING is political. A lot of things are political in this current environment. It amazes me how people can travel a middle ground, since there are clear philosophical differences defined by the two main sides now. Founding principles vs. a strictly federalist/statist set of principles.
I don't know anything about the Baseball Gods and don't really have a thought on how or why they do the things they do. All I know about them is that they make gobs of money!
Photography is a really neat hobby! Now it is much easier to get in since there is not a recurring film and development cost. I have been seeing Amateurs making great in-roads to the 'professionals'. Try astronomical photography sometime! You don't have to have a mega-scope as there are filters that allow the naked-eye sky to reveal some very beautiful sights!
You will find a career direction with a bit more thought! sometimes the direction comes out of left field! Those Baseball Gods have influence all over the place!
Thanks for the comments Richard.
ReplyDeleteBy the way I regard you as one of the few people I know who has a strong spiritual core who we could all look at as an example of how to live your life.
Now, for your politics...
If we could get you and a certain Maximo trainer to agree that would mean world peace. I can serve as the referee.
