  To think of and to see ourselves as a duality, as we might speak of 'your body' or 'my body.' Which suggests that there is a separate 'you' and 'me' to whom the 'physical body' we carry around, or which carries us around, 'belongs.'  Yes, part of the cost of attaining 'Ergo-sumness' is that we humans acquire and accumulate and form attachments form with things, both organic and inorganic.  Things which then becomes a part of us, psychologically and emotionally, if not physically. And herein lies the paradox; the fact that we must lose, be separated from all our perceived 'gains.'  Such it is that, as we travel through life, depending on how far we have travelled on our way towards our inevitable demise, our personal extinction.  We will have become separated from and lose some of the 'things' we have 'gained' along the way.  Until we get to the point of losing, but not becoming separated from ourselves, a

  Like the Sun, the Moon is of immense value to our life on Earth, as without them and no viable alternative life preservers, life as we know it, would not and probably could not exist.  And so it is that, if humanity were to be rational and logical us contemporary humans, and continue to feel a need for 'Gods.'  We would certainly not be worshipping the god/s and prophets of the Abrahamic religions. But, instead, like some or most of our ancestors, we would worship The Moon, and The Sun.  Indeed, we might also worship the water we us and the air we breathe.  And so it is that, when we look up and behold the Moon and the Sun, might we say, 'Thank you' to both for keeping us alive with their blessings.

  So, what, if anything, does it cost for us, if we are fortunate or unfortunate, as the case might be, to live beyond our childhood years and keep growing older?  Is it a blessing or a curse, or, were we to take a more objective approach, both, for us to keep going until we reach the point of the unrelenting gravitational pull of the unescapable Abyss before us? When we are but babies and very young children, there are two paths before us.  There is the path of the higher risk of an early death, as we might succumb to the various diseases to which we, by virtue of our infancy, might contract.  And there is the chance of us living to attain adulthood and realising or not realising the dreams and aspirations of our parents and ourselves.  But now that we are old and getting older, there is but only one path which lies before us; the path of dying, of expiring and ending our life's-journey. As a landlord might 'call time' before the appointed hour for which the law stipulates

 

  'The weaponised depleted human who made the murderous attack on Salmon Rushdie is not as responsible for the crime as much as the culpable religious Clerical Dons within Islam.  The Imams and Ayatollahs who either inflame Muslims by preaching hate or remain silent while the masses become restless, are the true 'Infidels and evil-doers.' Both are displaying a terrible failure of leadership and betrayal of their faith.' So barbarism, whether it be one person physically attacking an innocent person, or  one nation invading and attacking another without any great threat being posed to is, is not something which should be occurring in the 21st Century.  The mindless, because that is what it is, murderous attack on Salman Rushdie in New York, should not have happened.  Salman Rushdie should not have made the subject of a religious Fatwa by Iran's then religious leader, Ayatollah Khomeini, in 1989.  Muslims should not have and be making such inflammatory verbal attacks o

  This, of course, is an erroneous belief and expectation. The meeting of tertiary healthcare needs comes with a financial cost; somebody has to pay for it, and the more of it one person gets, the less there is to go around.  Yes, it is very costly and it has to be 'rationed' and targeted. The medical professionals who allocate and dispense it has to do their cost benefit analysis.  They have made decisions about who is likely to benefit from the treatment they are providing, and not just continue to dispense it because the  patient's parents want it to continue.  Of course, if the parents and/or family are paying the economic costs of the treatment they are demanding, then, yes, the involved medical professionals, if they are allowed to might comply.  Alternatively, other medical professionals, at the right price, might be willing to take over. The fact is that, it is not the parents or families who insist and demand that, say the British National Health Service, should pr

  This video was taken one night during the first half of August 2022, in the Northern Hemisphere. Like the Sun, the Moon has a crucial role in the welfare and survival of all life, including that of us human, and, like the Sun, is therefore worthy of being worshipped.  Much more so than the mythical 'God' that billions of people worship in their deception. So, if you are a Moon worshipper, you are being more logical than billions of Theists.       Water Lilies.
