Notes - too much temptation to mischief

       Twenty-two hundred hours right on the button. You are wondering why you are even on tonight. The day was mostly busy. Carol had her breakfast with retired Blue Ash teacher friends and in the early afternoon Dr. Brad E. put in your new upper left bridge which had arrived early this morning. The five painters on the team finished all the ceilings today and all of the minor wall repair work except in the garage. The team will also help you move the furniture when needed and replace it when finished. The cats spent the day in the master bedroom and master bath while work was being done. You had a late supper at Piada's Street Italian then watched the NBC News, "Designated Survivor" and Tuesday's "NCIS". The cat are enjoying their relative freedom in the house this evening. - Amorella

       2211 hours. You do a good job summarizing the day Amorella, the main particulars are worth marking -- shows something worthwhile is being done each day, at least from my perspective.

       Why are the cats' lives important, boy? - Amorella

       2214 hours. They are our companions of a sort. We love our cats as other people love their own pets.

       Do you consider human beings as G-D's pets, G-D's companions of a sort? - Amorella

       2216 hours. Many decades ago I thought such thoughts but no, I don't. I cannot imagine human beings as G-D's companions. I cannot imagine G-D having any companions. Angels I see as extensions of G-D, as spiritual fingers if you will. I do not know. This whole conversation is rather awkward to be honest, and blunt. What is its purpose?

       To think about how Angels might consider human beings? - Amorella

       2224 hours. Why bring G-D into it first?

       As far as Angels are concerned they would see G-D as first, don't you think? - Amorella

       2226 hours. Religiously and culturally we have been taught this. The story-line is understood in analogy. Beyond this I have no idea. And, I have no imagination for it except by story, some quite old stories. Stories are our connection to both G-D and Angels. Neurologically, stories may be the way of 'connection' to the concepts of G-D and Angels; neurological pathways to the more fully spiritual world. I can think of no other way of connection besides analogy unless it is 'an actual spiritual experience'. In "Designated Survivor" the question came up about appearance and reality and the new character said that in terms of the Presidency 'appearance is reality' and I immediately verbally disagreed saying to Carol, "Appearance is theatre, reality is reality". (2239)

       Then perhaps Angels are theatre and G-D is G-D? - Amorella

       2240 hours. If Angels are theatre then what are human beings, props? I think not because people have a sense of freedom and dignity, freedom and dignity are not props. Moral fibers, as it were, are not becoming of props.

       Is moral fiber a becoming of an Angel? - Amorella

       2244 hours. Intuitively I would say, no. Strange that this comes to mind because the "No" leads me to the dialogues within Milton's Paradise Lost. I do not know or feel what an Angel might personally think about freedom and dignity. Spiritual beings are not human. -- I miss-phrase this. Human beings are spiritual being to me, but not fully spiritual. Fully spiritual human beings cannot exist physically, at least not to me.

       A good place to stop, boy. Post. - Amorella

       2253 hours. I agree. Too much temptation to mischief.
