Rastaman agrees too.



After all these years, it looks like only you and me still are the only ones who understand each other when it comes to these things. Just had this nice allignment few days back and I just wanted to express my feelings about it. Ah ya, there's a part of a verse that has Jesus (or was it Jesusa?) saying that the kingdom is not something that can be found here or there... Few days back , on the History channel, I heard about the long lost 'Gospel of Thomas' which had something like the one you quoted on Luke. It stirred up my curiosity a bit so I might skim thru it when I have time.

This elusive absolute faith and hope has nothing much to do with mystical mumbo jumbo, folks; it can be explained with pure common sense. Like when you are down, your energy is low and down too. That's why you start to feel depressed and lethargic. When you are all stressed up and anxious, you feel like you're about to lose control and sometimes even feel you are about to get sick. That's because your energy is out of control too, in chaos. But when you feel good, your energy is in good balance as well...

Fear is the opposite of faith. If you have absolute fear, you're probably in a mental assylum. If you have absolutely no hope, you're a goner. So you can imagine what it'll be like if you are in the state of their direct opposite, the absolute faith and hope. I'll lets you think for yourself what it might feel like when you are in the most elusive state of absolute faith and hope (or faithfulness and hopefulness), when your energy is in the 'most perfect' form. Think about it...
