Remembrances of Pearl Harbor in the morning
paper. Somehow you feel attached to the Dead of that era. – Amorella
1244
hours. According to some family legends I should have died a day or two after
my birth. Several told me this before I was five. Both Grandmothers, Mom, Aunt
Patsy and Uncle Ernie and maybe others. The tone was always positive, like I
beat the odds of the circumstance in those days. So, built an attachment with
them at Otterbein Cemetery when I would play there. I think I was being polite,
like I had been invited to two birthday parties at the same time and I could
not do both so I (existentially I think) chose the Life birthday party, not
knowing what either one would be beforehand. This is what comes up out of my
head, and it seems like me at five, dutifully attempting to be polite at all
times. I don’t know where this just came from but it seems reasonable. I don’t
know who trained me to be so polite to others but obviously someone did. So,
the above is my five-year old version of the story of why I feel an attachment
to the Dead of that era. – rho
Signed, no less. – Amorella
1255
hours. Some thoughts should be signed.
While soaking in the tub this morning a
thought popped up – some of the Dead gather together to become a common sun
spirit and others a common moon spirit in the sky where there are no
demarcations. Others take on the constellations while most become the spirits
on an Earth they are all common to spiritually. – Amorella
1259
hours. When I thought about this I smiled thinking here is a way to use the ‘Hell
fire’ imagery except the Living get it wrong – becoming the spiritual fire
(think Blake’s paintings of such) they are sharing their light to allow a sun
motif to exist that allows humankind Dead to be more comfortable in their
setting – creating a natural spiritual world of their own devise. I like the
twist – the Ancients getting a part of the Afterworld right but in the wrong
context.
This is a good and perhaps useable spiritual
construction, boy, but what about the other spiritual beings such as Betweeners like myself, and Angels? – Amorella
1337
hours. I don’t know. You are right though; consistency is the key. Perhaps the existential
setting continues at least as far as human spirits are concerned. I don’t know
what would be a spiritual setting where Betweeners and Angels would reside.
Why do they need a home at all? – Amorella
1343
hours. I am thinking anthropologically here. Home is for family and
shelter and group living and culture thriving.
“Being”
is enough – being a Presence is just fine from your human perspective. –

Carol
created an excellent late lunch plate with a special ground steak from Kroger’s,
veggies and split-baked potato with butter. For supper you had half a turkey baloney
sandwich topped with a piece of cheese. You watched NBC News, “Supergirl” and “Major
Crimes” before calling it a night. Carol went upstairs to read her latest book
and you are going up shortly. – Amorella

hours. I have Pouch 11 organized into a folder for less clutter on the desktop.
You have addressed what to immediately
delete from the 7790 word Pouch Eleven down to 4994 words to work from. –

hours. I will be surprised if I can use any of this remaining material, but
maybe if nothing else it can give me a hint of a direction that will naturally
fit in with what we already have for GMG.2 so far.
