Why Do We Exist?

 Ever wonder why we, as a people, exist? Surely there are other species out there, aliens if you will, that deserve to exist more than we do. Do I believe in aliens? You bet I do. I believe there are other people out there on other planets. They don't look like little green or grey men. They look like us. Living their own lives and doing whatever it is they need to be doing. I mean come on; we can't be the only people in the universe. Space is too vast of a place for that to be the case. It's an unending place where there really is no end in sight. It goes on forever. I can't comprehend that, because we are taught everything has a beginning and an end. But space is much different.

Yet the question remains. Why do we exist? It makes no sense to me. Whoever made us all had a plan in mind for sure. But there must have been a reason for us to be here. To suffer things in this life and see if we can make it through life. It doesn't make sense somedays. Why would a loving God want to see his children suffer? I'd like to think that wasn't His or Her purpose in creating us. They don't want us to suffer; it's just a byproduct of living on a planet with dangerous surroundings. That's got to be it.

I have been given reasons before of why we're here. "To be tested." That's all I was told. Things change though. Answers like that change into something more complex. Does that complex answer make sense? I'm not sure. It's just a manner of thinking. Internally, externally, something along those lines. Personally, I hate it. Both the easy and complex ideas make my head hurt.

I'd rather not think about why we are here. I just want to live life and see what all is out there. There's always something to explore in this life. No matter where I go, there's something to explore.

Got out this morning for a walk. That was good. The sun was barely coming up and it was just nice. I didn't walk for very long, mostly just down to the end of the road and back. But it was worth it. Maybe that's why I exist, to experience something out there that's nice and warm. I don't know.

There are so many things unknown in this life. It can drive one mad. Crazy even. But what more do you want from it all? Don't you have enough to get by? Isn't that enough? Yeah...talk about an interesting thought process to actually have going on. I hate it.

So many things I hate about this life. I can't seem to categorize them in my mind. The music plays. Never ending, always playing going around like a record player. Constantly going around in my mind without a warning sign of stopping. It becomes annoying at some point in life. At what point that happens is up in the air. No one knows exactly the timing of it all.

I seem to have gotten off onto a tangent. I apologize. But we are here now and that is where we are going. Talk about a crazy bit of knowledge to have made known.

Maybe we are all crazy and mad and we just don't recognize it because that's how life has been for all of us. There are no normal people around. What's considered normal is just made up in someone's mind and it became the consensus about it all. Now that is an odd thought for a moment to have, isn't it.

Didn't Sleep

 What's the point of sleep anymore if I can't sleep? I don't think I slept any good last night. I was awake at 3 am wondering to myself, what on earth am I doing awake? Yeah, that happened. It doesn't make any sense. Fortunately, it's the weekend. So, I can catch up on sleep tonight. I don't have to be anywhere tomorrow, so it's a good opportunity to actually sleep for once. Whatever the case, I hope I'll be able to fall asleep and stay asleep. We will see what happens.

What's The Point?

 So, tell me, what is the point of believing in a spiritual supreme being? I often wonder what that is all about. I know religions say that God, as some call him, is our father. We pray by starting with our father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Yet sometimes it feels like he is absent from our lives. Is it due to how we are living our lives? What exactly is the cause of that feeling? Some people believe that God, Jesus, and the Holy Ghost are one person. Others do not. It is interesting to me to see what all churches believe in. I myself do not go to church. I don't believe in organized religion. I have my bible on my phone, so it's me and my bible. That is my link to God. It makes me wonder if that's enough though. I have faith in Christ, I believe in him. Is my faith sufficient to be forgiven of my sins? I do not know. I do know that wherever I end up in the afterlife, I will have done my best to follow Christ. I believe the scriptures which lay out Christ's...

Temptation Bible vs Book of Mormon

In the Bible in 1 Corinthians 10:13 we find: There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able ; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it. But what might seem as a contradiction is found in Alma 13:28 But that ye would humble yourselves before the Lord, and call on his holy name, and watch and pray continually, that ye may not be tempted above that which ye can bear , and thus be led by the Holy Spirit, becoming humble, meek, submissive, patient, full of love and all long-suffering; So, which is it? Either God tempts you to a point and stops, or you have to actively pray not to be tempted beyond that no return point. Which is it?
