Forever

I believe that there is no for-ever, because our lives arent endless; I believe we all live in cycles, starting anew all over again over billions of years.

No one knows what set up this system, and where it is going to take us.

I saw a wonderful rainbow tonight - a connection for us to reach heaven, a promise by God.

A rainbow is caused by splitting up the light into different wavelengths, depending on where the sun is and where your position is.
Still a promise? Yes, but of the sort we can´t think of....

Reality

Our discussions about life and existence won´t in the least changed the reality - but what is the reality?

Point of view.

in your mouth, struggling.
Now imagine that you're that frog.

New Media.

I think there will always be books.
Books are so cozy somehow: their smell, the sometimes old withered paper, the feel...

I think Magazines might be replaced, more or less, by iPad & Co.
It´s easy and handy to lie on the sofa and holding an iPad or iPod or any other touch screen device and read the latest news stories. Short stories.

I think photo albums could be replaced.

But books?

...Tax...

Let´s suppose there´d be no tax upon gasoline or petrol. Only the market would build the price of petrol at the pump. There´d be a balance between supply and demand, and also some competition between the petrol firms.

Would this market price take into consideration that the fuel is one of if not the main cause of the change in the consistency of our main nutricient, the atmosphere, the air we breath with our lungs. Please stop breathing for 2 minutes and you know what I mean (Disclaimer: this is only an intellectual suggestion for demonstration purposes. I cannot be held responsible if someone should employ this fictive suggestion to his real life situation. It could cause you severe harm).

The price would be affected by demand, and there is continuous, even rising demand, and supply. The oil firms can provide enough fuel for the next decades, they´d set aside a sum for development and exploration, and renewal of refineries, and a profit margin.

The most important thing: the concern about our well-being and further existence wouldn´t influence the price at all, thus not influencing the behaviour of the participients of the fuel market.

This is an important hint where tax should, and must come in: as an instrument to control sensible behaviour of the consumers, thus forcing the oil firm to react appropriately by providing alternatives.

Tax is a necessary instrument to control economic processes, just like the weather and other natural givings.

This is outstanding

...Black Box...

I need a Blackbox, a box into which I could put all my knowledge and experience gained in this world,
and which I could use in the next world.

But there´ll be not the same I, there´ll be another I.

Just like a distinct leave of a tree, which is a vegetable I, will never appear again as the same I.

Deductions are quite useful when in doubt what´s going on.

We are the candidates but not the masters.

Will we be masters some day?

Is the entity of candidates the master?

Sex

Is sex

a matter of faith to another person?
a mere means to produce a new being?
a need of the body which needs to be dealt with, no matter how?

Why is sex so heavily related to personal faith, religious belief, obscureness?

Our body (and also mind) can sometimes cause lots of pain, unrest, and breakdowns.
This is compensated by the unlimited joy of sexual fulfillment. It´s a part of our existence. I think it´s an obligation not to hide it but to apply it in a respectful way.

Those sex joke and sex sites only seem to florish because they are an underground instrument to relieve an instrinsic bodily need and function.

Try never to walk with healthy legs: the joints and muscles of your legs will deteriorate, the miracle of walking and the gift of legs is thrown away for nothing.

And also: we´ve been created by using our sexual instruments.

We are the victims of our bodies.
We are transitional.

If two minds respect each other, but the the two bodies aren´t attractive to each other, isn´t this like living in a monastery?

A prayer...

...is an email sent to heaven.

But we don´t know who´s the recipient....

But I´m almost certain, well, I AM certain (and I´m scientifically orientated!!!) that there IS a recipient.

The person

You have a very regular and secure monthly income. You can even fix the amount of your income without too many problems. Everybody would wish themselves to be in a similar situation.
Even so you're in DEBTS, and your continuing to make more and more debts.
WHO ARE YOU?????
are you a reliable, trustworthy person???
What ratings do you have????
