Why!

Why!

Tempt yea bee, not with riches of this now place world

For it bee not an eternity for you to reap

Meek ye are, not so to inherit a part to take with you into the neither land… for wherefore is such a place

For your place is in the land of never bee

Forsaken to the blackness of the unknowing and the unseen by man

The lowly worm is mightier then thou

For when you depart into the bowels of the earth

They feed, within thy very bones

The worms crawl in and the worms crawl out, they are therefore in charge for a brief moment here upon this earth

Time will erase any markings that thou might have cast in this illusion of fictional dimension

Like the, wearing down of the mighty stones to wind blown sand

For are we not all but specks in a black ebb that eventually swallows us up in both space and time

Are we not but mirrored objects passing bye to be obliterated by it’s breaking of the glass

Who’s toy are we … played with … by who

Foresooth, why, why, why I search for why … do not we all!

Pondering - disillusionment - Why were we put here - Is there an afterlife - Is there a god?

There are so many religions in this world …
So many beliefs in different ways …
I believe in the freedom of religious beliefs
Or non-belief if that is their wish

But to find the answers why are we here and where are we going … or if in our passing … we just cease to exist … to be no more … I know not why

I believe life is not complicated when it ceases it than becomes a complete blank … like no more electricity is available because of a blown fuse!

One that Ponders

PS … I wish not to offend anyone
I only ponder why?

hug hug I know we don't become a complete blanklips and there is so much more to it than that, but I can so understand this sometimes, some days I wonder why I am here and then something small happens that makes sense.
my Xmas wish for you is that you have many "something smalls" to make every day special this year xxxxlips

Jimee these are really good but difficult questions and just like you, I am sometimes searching for answers and nowhere seems sensible enough to give me a peace of mind. But this is where I can easily accept the fact that there has to be someone more powerful than me or else, how would it be. If you listen to the discussion of Dr. Tyson De Grazzi and Dr. Richard Dawkins on the Universe, this might enlighten you a bit. They are both professors in Oxford University and had centered their discussion on the quantum physics of the universe. If them, who are so smart and so intelligent can't even pinpoint and or measure the end of this vast universe, considering that we are just a tiny SPECK in many of a thousand more of Galaxies, can you imagine the power (GOD) POSESS? at least to me...

Good luck Jimee and thanks for this mind boggling and intriguin write.

Oh, I know, JimEee, why we are here: we are here to love our life through and then depart contented, having loved enough (as if one can love enough!), and depart discontented, not having loved enough, or depart fearful and in panic, not having loved at all.
We came here to love - came here not to be loved, but to be blessed with love if so lucky.
As to where we go having done our chores - this will be known to us in due time.
So those who think they haven't loved enough (even if having been blessed with love multiple times but not having loved enough or loved at all) let them not spare efforts to fall in love again or for the first time to complete what's our mission on earth.
Here's to Love wine and Merry Christmas, dear poet - the One that rightfully Ponders!santa waving

God of Love

God of Love, God of all living,
If in Heart you don’t have faith,
What’s the use of living your life
On this wondrous, blessed land?!
What’s the use for me of such day,
When we fail to meet again?

Heart is thrilled, with joy it’s singing,
Sending prayers for you above.
Seems as if the sun is rising,
When your face lights up with smile.
What’s the use for me of such day,
When we fail to meet again?

The Depth of humanity to try
and understand the spiritual mysteries
of our being is fascinating to say the least

Happy Holidays

Tis fascinating that the learned Professors
of the world and we both ponder
what lies in the place beyond ...
if such a one exists
Happy New Year

My friend with her heart
full of love for mankind ...
overflows like a stream
in the desert making a garden
of a barren waste!

Thank you for your loving thoughts
May your holidays be Happy & Bountiful!
