Dear God 2

why are you such a never-ending paradox?
why is it that the very concept of god narrows all down to a something? how come when every time one speaks of God, one only speaks of an idea, a definable vision of the unspeakable?
questions, questions, questions, with questionable answers.
i know that i notice my answers always ultimate into a question, slightly different in phrase, yet originating from the same source.
i was programmed to not accept, to deny answers presenting themselves as questions; i was told to seek definite answers.
but more and more now i realize that progress, as culture has defined it, is not only about expanding and knowing the answers to all.
sometimes i choose the alternative path of contraction and contemplation, and unsubstantiated understanding.
to simply say yes to the question.
when all is balanced, all is good and bad, right and wrong, known and not-known.
however all is always divine.
if it's good then the divine is expressing itself as a good thing. if it's bad then the divine is expressing itself as a bad thing.
thing will never be the same, and all will never be different.
dear god, am i you? 
love the mystery!

Not that any one asked me but here are my two cents.
God to me is energy among all living things. Energy in its entirety, whole.
It's important for all of us to understand the spirituality among each and every one of us, and to make the connection of one and all. We together are god, when we do good we are god, but also when we do bad, we control who we are as a whole. Energy travels in ripples among us causing an effect whether is good or not. The quickest we understand that we are a whole and start working as a team, the quickest we can start healing our ancestors mistakes, learn from them and realize that continuing their behavior only hurts us even more.
Religion in the other hand I an not a fan of. It's a manmade system. Perhaps once had a good purpose and that was to build and contain a good ripple effect among the community, problem being that we humans and our selfish ways interpret things to our own convenience, religion now is one of the most powerful profitable organizations and just like any profitable organization, people are going to compete for a bigger portion of the pie. At this point who knows who their god is or what manual they are following. Religion has separated us as a whole, has taken away our communities creating cults among us, too much blood has been spilled in the name of religion.
We have fought with each other and continue to do so due to the confusion or bad interpretation. Where did we come from we all asked, we searched and searched to come up with all different answers. We focused so much or proving we were the right ones among the other teams that we forgot to ask ourselves where are we going? We are all here, what do we do from now on?
I like to think there is no god, only us and the universe, energies, vibrations. I will give love to the world, love my community, love all living things and respect them as one. I live to hope one day my wave will be so big that will shake people houses and they will have no other choice but to love back.
You don't have to like my answer I understand it may be offensive to many of you. It's only an opinion.

This was an amazing post, AlteredAgain. I relate to a lot of what you write. Thank you...

Any new insights on life AlteredAgain?

It is all mathematically scheduled for more profundity of character based experiential knowledge development.

The only thing less likely than the existence of God is the existence of life itself.
