You are 99% or more atheist

I was asked if i believe in more than one GOD. I replied no, i believe only in one. I was then told that i was 99% or more atheist because there are possibly hundreds of GODs; being worshiped And I only believe on one.

Atheist I knew i was not, but for the sake of arguing, could that be possible? Could I be any % atheist?

I then realized atheist I was not. I was however, ignorant to other peoples GOD. How can I say I believe in GOD and claim that GODs others worship are unreal? Could it be that they believe in the same GOD, but differently? Could all GODs be the same, but worshiped differently, have different names and different stories?

I realize that dispute between religions could end if all think this way. We can chose to believe in whatever we want and not criticise others and their beliefs.

Like it or not, all we know is based on who we know and where in the world we are. So the chance that your parents gave you birth in another land in another time, could mean you believing in another GOD.

On The Corner with a Cup

There are people on corners holding cups. Do this people deserve to be helped? I don't know. Do we know  why they are on the corner holding a cup?

The world is full of unfortunate people. We do not always know the reason as to why life has chosen for them to be in such situation. Whether it is their own fault, their were born into the world so, or if someone else is to blame for their un-fortune.

There is probably nothing we can do to save them from their path of life, or their situation. We do not have the time to find them help because we need help in our own very busy life. Any little help will do for these people.

Lets throw a coin in their cups. The same coin that willd fall in between our couch and we don't miss them because we don't notice that they are gone, the coins. Take a coin and put it in a cup.

When Someone does not understand your situation, does it not bother you? When you trade places, are you going to treat them as you were treated "in a situation not understood?"

Perfect

The world is not a perfect place. But one can make the world around one closer to perfect. Creating a perfect world around yourself helps apply more positivity in your life.

If there are people in ones world that bring one down, one need to either find new friends to replace the downers or bring the new friends around to show the downers how to be better people. Bringing the new friends help keep ones old friendship and better both one and the people one associates self with.

There is no such thing as perfect, only close to perfect!

Have a close to perfect day.

The Meaning of Death

Death is different for everyone and the meaning of death is different for each of us. Death to some is passing and possibly never seeing the person again. For some others it a transformation from one living thing to another. For some others it is passing on to another life, even a life that is interchangeable with ours, and the for rest, it is simply the end of being.

We define death as the end of something. To me, death is the end of a part or a path but the beginning of another.

What is death to you?

Death

The concept of death is difficult to understand. That a person can be here one minute and then be gone the next it’s beyond man’s understanding. We know that, physically they went nowhere, but their sprit or soul is no longer in existence with the body. Their eyes may be open, but they do not see us. We see them as if they are still alive. The only evidence, we know, that their vessel is empty, is because their body look cold and we affiliate cold, mostly, with death.

So did they die or did they just leave their vessel?

“Death is not the greatest loss in life. The greatest loss is what dies inside us while we live.” by Norman Cousins

Religion: The competition

Is religion competitive? It feel like it is . Now there are so many religions, I am sure I only know of a small percentage. It seem they are all recruiting; like the army or the navy. Is there a religion that tells men to join a religion even if man joins one other than theirs? A religion that is not for the purpose of winning, money, or enforcing rule, is likely a perfect religion. A religion that is there for the sake of men. The Future; today's children, are seeing what many of our parents and grandparents have fail to see; Religion is becoming even more in the competition with other organizations.

Xie Xie, Xie Xie

She said thank you a thousand time. Never met someone that was so thankful.

She needed to go down the stairs, but had a huge luggage that was almost as big as she was. although there is a language barrier, I understood what she needed and so I carried her luggage down and the whole time she kept saying "Xie Xie, Xie Xie" and bowed her head while her hands in prayer position. 


When I was done and walking away she continued saying "Xie Xie, Xie Xie" which I understood to mean thank you. She kept saying "Xie Xie, Xie Xie" until I was no longer visible (and that was a long time).
