2. Well, years ago I had a nightmare; I didn't need Rush to

tell me things were messed up! I dreamed of standing by a mass grave; one placed one's hand on the bible being offered or BAM and over one went...swear or die...I'm no longer active in any organized church with its corruption and hypocrasy, but I think about that dream at times and say the first prayer I remember saying as I was taught:

Now I lay me down to sleep; I pray the Lord my soul to keep; if I should die before I wake; I pray the Lord my soul to take (somewhere). I now just equate a soul to the energy of life everlasting in some form of energy.

No matter, guess I'm still that child speaking like one...I Corinthians 13:

Science claims our brains are categorizing and cleaning up the debris of our thoughts. Sure seems there quite a bit of debris to clean up...

It also seems that I'm likely in my last season, but one never knows what the future will bring for those we leave behind...so be kind; learn all one can; know yourself and live and defend by the example of love; vote; pray if one must, with faith that it reaches out with energy to others and a Creator.
