Welcome

I came to Blogger, thinking about sharing some stuff, and discovered that I had set up this blog eight years ago, and forgot about it.  I do a lot of Facebook postings, which fade into obscurity by hundreds of other postings.  I believe some of my writings are entertaining, and may at times offer a bit of insight, or they may invite additional thinking about an issue. 

I mostly discuss spiritual or the interaction between Spirit and science.  I'm part of several groups, related to metaphysical or spiritual topics.  Many of the postings demonstrate a lack of experience on the topics, or express over zealous proclamations of "spiritual truths."  Because of that, I find myself attempting to bring many tangential threads back down to Earth.  

I think it's fine to talk about frequencies, dimensions, vibrations, and the nature of matter/energy.  It's also okay to speculate on how much of human perception is illusion.  Problems arise when people derive principles, based on these speculations, while thinking of them as facts.  One of these speculations is the belief that "everything is an illusion," and on that basis, interaction with the perceived illusion is not of any consequence.  Citing this illusion theory, some people feel there's no need or benefit to seek justice in the world, or to relieve suffering.  This is why my goal is to remind people that there is benefit to helping others, and even if "everything is an illusion," we still should, if possible, contribute to the well being of others and the Planet.  

I have yet to understand how to organize my writings in a blog, so it may not be easy to navigate, but I expect it to get better over time.
