There are moments when we find wisdom in the oddest places, sometimes even our own minds. I hope that my writing either speaks a little wisdom from time to time or that it inspires wisdom in you.

It
seems as though Nietzsche, in his “Antichrist” is stating that Jesus himself
tried to point people in the direction of their own connection to God.No salvation needed, just understanding of
what we are and where we come from.
Could you imagine living in a society that allows half it's people to be paid an ever lowering percentage of the amount of money it takes to live comfortably? What if the people accept such a society as just the way it is even as a certain group continues to amass such large amounts of wealth that it becomes impossible for them to spend it? What kind of leaders would allow a gap in income to occur that a tiny portion of people holds more wealth than the larger portion of people in their society? A review in December 2024 found that in the United States of America there is an issue with distribution of wealth and we all accept it. The wealthiest people make up one percent of society and hold over thirty percent of the wealth. It is good to know that there is a group that makes up just under fifty percent of society and they hold sixty seven percent of the wealth. That is not too bad, a nice percentage of us is doing pretty well, but that leaves about fifty percent of the people try...
At this moment and for about a month something new is living within my body. It is amazing to consider how I have bacteria living in and on my body which are so many generations old that they go back to my birth. They were carried by my mother and were part of my initial colonization, little adventurers seeking to extend their lineage by being part of the world as Jason. It is doubtful that all the strains have survived, but there must be babies of babies so many generations back that make up my bodies current world. The new resident that seems to have found a home within my skull is acting similar to other colonized creatures, in that it is not currently trying to kill me or make me feel bad in general. It seems to have found a hiding spot in some nasal cavity near my right ear; I say this because since it first entered I have had the almost continuous woosh of my blood moving through that ear. It is interesting to consider a small colony of this new resident living there, having...
I have been inspired by many men in my life, from family members to those I never knew but who made me push my mind. I try to find a lesson through every person I meet, and there has been so much inspiration given to me by wonderful and wise women in my life, but right now I will stick with the men who have brought something memorable to my life. My father has taught me so much; from patience as he watched me work through my own mistakes, trying to give me guidance which I always accepted so slowly over time, rarely when it would have been the most useful. As I have watched him keep his body strong and able to play throughout his life, I learned that staying in good shape allows me to play at things that have brought me joy and energy since I was young; two wheeled toys are so much fun. I have also learned independence, which sometimes makes things harder, but keeps me working to always push myself to take on challenges. My uncles, which are varied and have been gifts stretched...
