Programming In Perl

Been trying my hand lately in programming in Perl. Doing some database things with it. It’s quite an interesting language. I’m rather enjoying it, if I’m being honest. Coming from a Java background, I find it exciting to learn new things and take them as they come to me. It’s fun for sure!

All Of This Has Happened Before

 There's a famous line from Battlestar Galactica (BSG).

All of this has happened before, and all of this will happen again.

Makes you wonder if the human race has been through all of this before. If we are but copies of another set of humans that once lived on an Earth like our own. But in some misfortune failed to execute their role as what they should be. Something like that. Wouldn't that be interesting if we were all just test subjects, Guinea pigs to see how we react to certain obstacles. I can see that happening. Just toys for someone to play with.

When they get tired of their creation, they reset everything and we all go through it over again.

There, of course, isn't any concrete proof that this is the case. But it is an interesting thought exercise. Kinda rules out reincarnation as we are just ourselves again. Makes you wonder how everything will go down eventually. How will death be perceived. Will it be just a slight resting point before being thrown back into the arena as it were.

If that's all this life is, I want no part of it. When it comes time for my final resting point, I want to be able to rest. I don't want to be thrown back into the arena to be tried and tested again. Who knows how many times I could have had this thought. A hundred? A thousand? If I am the same person throughout all of these incarnations, wouldn't I come to the same conclusion? Now there's an interesting question.

So many thoughts can come from this one point. How else could God get all of his children back home? There's another thought. He keeps putting us in the same situations in hopes that we will eventually make the right choices and be able to be with Him. How would that be?

If we are going through the same processes over and over again, that would be kind of mean for a creator to do to his children. I think at least. Just something to consider.

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...

Depression

 Depression is not something to be taken lightly. Having Major Depressive Disorder, I can only hope for a better future. I get it a lot of people wish to have a better future. There's nothing wrong with that. I don't think. Why not wish for a better life? If wishing works, let it work. Personally I wish the voices would leave me, but it's not as simple as that. They run amok from time to time. My only hope is that they'll get a clue. Yeah it's crazy at times that's for sure. If I could, I'd wish them upon no one else.
