Reality Is An Illusion

Reality is an illusion. The universe is a hologram. Buy gold. Bye! - Bill Cipher, Gravity Falls Ah what an interesting thought process Bill has. Sure he was evil as all get out, I mean who wouldn’t be after all he is a triangle. No, not the triangle from the song, however he might be? I’m not sure where the shoe runners got the inspiration for Bill Cipher to be honest. He’s pure evil, that’s for sure. But it does bring about a question. What if this life is an illusion? We can’t say for sure it’s not. We live day in and day out wondering if life will be what it is meant to be, or how it’s meant to be processed. Maybe this life isn’t more than it’s cracked up to be. It could be whatever it wants to be and we are left here picking up the pieces wondering if there’s something more to behold from it all. I’m not sure. It would be nice to be able to figure out what this life has in store for us. I mean, come on. There has to be something this life is good at, right? I sure as hell ho...

The Weekend

The weekend is here! Finally! It feels like it has been quite a long week. I don’t know why it feels like a long week. Eh! I’ll get over it.

Thinking of other things, I need to write more of my story that I’m working on.

A thought. We might be different manifestations of the same individual. Think about that for a moment. We are part of someone’s imagination. You believe you’re thinking for yourself? Think again. I can understand how jarring such a concept can feel. But what if it’s the truth??

Being inside the simulation, we don’t have the luxury of knowing what’s beyond the programming which surrounds us.

Naturally we want to believe we are in complete control over our lives. But what if that isn’t the case at all? What are we to do with this information? I’m not sure if anyone knows the answer to that.

There are many questions in this life we don’t have the answers to. It’s a shame really if you think about it. It would be nice to have the answers to everything we ever wanted. I don’t know how to go about that though.

This life is full of surprises. It can be quite interesting at times to say the least. But if we are to think of this life with all the possibilities, we can learn a lot.

Let’s say for the sake of argument we are living in a simulation. What would that feel like? How would we know if we are in a simulation to begin with? I doubt there are any signs out there jumping out at us saying Hey! This Life Isn’t Even Real! Yeah, I don’t think so.

So we have to go with our gut feelings. Even those can be confusing at times. So it’s something else to the rescue.

The thing about life is it doesn’t have to make sense. There aren’t any rules when it comes down to it. This life makes sure of that. It’s one of those consistent things we have to look forward to every day.

Without the simulation masquerading as life, where would we be? Oh where would we be indeed. It’s a good question that one. I don’t know if we will ever have an answer and I have to be okay with that thought process.

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?
