yes, I have. but heres a more mind stumping question: maybe you are already dead and don't know it but have been placed in an area to continue to believe you are alive.

prisoners? then we must find who has the keys....

Hi,

I wish I knew where to find the keys but I don't.

Another question worth considering is why does n't God create us perfectly from day one so that we can go direct to heaven and not have to go through many lives of suffering.

Also why does God never show his face. He simply remains a mystery and then we end up with competing religions all trying to kill each other.

The worst thing of all is the food chain. We have animals eating animals which is totally barbaric.

It seems to me that God does not exist but perhaps the devil does because life is so cruel.

I can see that I will never get the answers to my questions because nobody has the answers.

well, you have the answers...for yourself.. your answers are not my answers, but sometimes we can agree and rejoice in that. one thing I noticed about life is when I'm down, tomorrow somehow looks different; nothing stays the same, not even a bad mood, or a state of depression. but I think u have to read books, and study and meditate, ask for help, do everything u can to help yourself out of the pits. I think I know where you're at as I think I've been there. all I can do is share what I did to get out of it...and what I did is not the only way, so if u want to know, I got mad. I said I was leaving this planet..lol..wheres my spaceship?  I meant I was going to follow hubby into the great beyond. but before I did I offered a deal. I've always spoken aloud to the air. well, the air responded. might not work for you though, but you could try getting mad (don't punch anyone) state what u need to the air, then sit back and wait, I mean release the need to have instant satisfaction. guides will assist you in the right direction. after all, haven't you had enough of survival of the fittest idea?

that reminds me....I was raising ducks. love of my life. ducks...darn, I love ducks...built a pen and darn if a coon didn't get in there and tear one of my ducks up real bad, but didn't kill him, just left him bloody and featherless..he could have at least managed to put him out of his misery...but no....took my duck to the vet..here's the innane conversation:
yes mam?
it's my duck...could u put him to sleep please?
yes, mam, you say it's your dog you need to euthanize?
It's d-u-c-k, duck and could somebody hurry please, he's suffering.
just a minute mam, I'll check who's available on staff, please have a seat.
five minutes later a vet says to bring my dog in.
it's  a duck! is this the first time somebody brought in a duck? it's a pet duck, does anyone have feelings for a duck or am I crazy?

the world started to suck back then. I got to thinking about coons. it must have been starving to death and I couldn't get mad at it. the failure was mine. I was just learning how to keep safe my own. mother nature can be cruel or kind or indifferent. deal with it. I took the right action by taking the duck in. that's the best I could do. so u do the best you can do and keep shining your light when it's dark out there. like I said before you can't always get what you want but you can get what you need. let me know if you are inspired (hee, the objective) if not I may have to change my approach...I do care if that helps any. love, alysia

Great question...
Well, if you think of Creation as Art....have you never gotten lost in the process of creating a picture or a poem, not knowing how it would turn out?  Have you looked at a manual and thought, what a great technique, but then gone on and created your own free-for-all?  That is art.  The free-for-all.  Pure expression.  We are that pure expression and we are marvelous to behold.  We are so amazing that nothing gets thrown away....

love, blink

wow Blink, I like the way you put that. I'm gonna reread this. we are self creators, we are works of art, we are free to do this with ourselves. love, alysia

oh yes, make a bold splash of color on the canvas of life.

I'm sorry I confused you.
Bill said: You suggested that I might already be dead but I'm not aware of it. Well I have a physical body with a pulse so i can't be dead physically at least. My body will die some day so then I really will be dead.

let me explain better. when you are dead you still have a body. you have a duplicate of your physical body and it feels like physical flesh, in that it feels warm, with the same texture and so on. that is why many folk who cross over continue on thinking that they are still sick from the illness that they just died of. but only for a time. that is why I made a little joke that fell flat for you. but this is the reason a miniority of us can get stuck thinking we are still in the physical universe, because we know we are still ourselves, and we appear as to be as physical as before death. this is what a retriever does, is let them know they are on another plane of existance now and have less limitation of that physical body they still feel themselves to be within.

I can tell you are a very compassionate person Bill, and if it helps any, I was not affected by the Tsunami either, 9/11 yes, Tsunami, no. I don't think you need to be down on yourself for insensitivity issues.

with love and light, alysia

and Mair, I forgot to say thanks to remind me I am not so looney tunes. that there are animal people, some into birds, some into horses, some into whatever but it's all the same to me, it's all life in many forms. you seem to know some of the neatest characters! love, alysia
