My Beliefs & Thoughts About God & the Past Or Present?!

My Beliefs & Thoughts About God & the Past

Or Present?!

God is a very sensitive and touchy subject, so when speaking aloud of Him, one must be careful how things are worded. On paper it is a little easier.

 

I am writing about God today because, for one, yes I believe in Him. For two, I am having a problem with those who don't, and want to rearrange our lives and make us remove it from our currency and pledge. I see no reason they just can't ignore it, as they have done in the past. We as humans have believed in God, more then we have not believed, because the non belief didn't come into play until much later.

Don't get me wrong, I do question the bible from time to time, because yes, it does contradict itself in more then one instance. But in all realization, if it is man writing down what God is saying, then of course it will contradict itself-for one-think about this. We, as mankind are not perfect! For two, have you yourself ever written or typed something, and one of your kids come up to you, and asks you a question.

You type, as you're writing, "not now, I'm busy, give me a minute." So let's say Moses is writing what God told him to write, and then his wife asks him something. Let's say they even discussed her question. Then he goes back to writing, it and "what is it God said? Oh yeah, something about bread...what was it?"

I am one of the few who believe evolution and in God, most don't believe in both. But I do, and let me tell you why. The Dinosaurs and the cave men, were Adam and Eve. It is one in the same, in my eyes anyway. The creatures they ate and lived upon were dinosaurs. And the ice age, was perhaps when the flooding took place, because after all, of course we are going to have a flood, after the ice melts. Think about this.

The past is always something that interests me. History, including the bible, because someone had the decency to write it, so we knew it happened. When I was a kid in School, it bored me, until I finally had a teacher that knew how to teach it, to intrigue you. The past of mankind, whether it be biblical or not, is something we all need to learn and know, because we can grow from it, and correct the mistakes we have made in the past.

You often hear of people asking, "If God exists then why did he let this happen to me? Why didn't he just let me die?!" There is always a reason. Perhaps that person needed to make amends with a family member. Perhaps in that persons crippled state, they were supposed to teach others, as did Christopher Reeve. He shared his life, his dilemma, still acted, and tried to encourage others to go on, and not just others who were also less fortunate.

But anyone who had a problem, to take a bite out of that problem, examine it, and your life, and makes the best of it. Helen Keller was blind; she still made an example and succeeded. As I have mentioned, none of us are perfect. But we are all here, in this spot, place and time for a reason. A reason that might not be visible to us, but there always is one.

They say that God has a plan for us all. He has previously mapped out our lives. That I do not believe in. I think God simply watches us, mistakes and all, and lets us make up our own minds, and learn from our own mistakes. He has no plan; He is just watching and learning with us.

Then there is mythology, where they mention several Gods. I also believe in that, and think that when there was, or is our God, there were more then one, which is why He mentioned He wanted no other Gods before Him. As you can well enough see, my beliefs are strange. But I am sure that I am not alone.

I also believe that there is life on other planets. Perhaps each God chose and made a planet, and made a species of their own, to watch it evolve and grow. And now the species, including mankind, are visiting the other planets to see, and learn. And compliments of the movies that mankind makes, if an Alien were to come here, that Aliens chance of living to tell about it, are slim to none. And again, in all honesty, along with my beliefs, I believe there is an area 51, and we have already taken hostage and alien and dissected it.

Regarding the Egyptians and how they made pyramids, I think there is a possibly that the Egyptians were more evolved then we give them credit. If you read past Egyptian writings, and relics and different things about the bible, including the bible code book, computers were around before we even thought or imagined them. So if computers were in our past, long before we thought to invent them, obviously there were other technologies as well. A strange belief that I have, is that evolution, and our time span are doing a circle.

And repeating itself. I think there is a possible that the UFO's and visitors to our planet are not in fact visitors, but people time traveling from our past, and I think it could be the Egyptians. They are time traveling, implanting their seeds into people from the future and trying to keep the human race from killing itself off. (If there is in fact proof of human being impregnated when they have been abducted.) I think one reason, is perhaps when King Tut knew he was dying, perhaps he wanted an heir if you will, someone from his family history to go on. Maybe the relics will tell us this, maybe the relics and Egyptian drawings already have.

There is so much about our past, present and future that superiors keep secret, one would really never know the truth. And that is part of the problem. Maybe I have a huge imagination, and am bored. Maybe it is the truth, and there are people out there who just don't want us to know, because they "think" we can't handle the truth.

Anyway, this is some of the things I believe in, because I have an open mind, and am willing to go with the flow and grow with it. Technology and time, is for change. One must be willing to go and grow with it. And the mind is a terrible thing to waste, even if this is all my imagination, at least my imagination works!

Poem: Why Do I Write?

Why Do I Write?

I Just Thought You Might like to Know......

Deneale K. Williams, Yahoo Contributor Network
Sep 3, 2007

I don't write to impress you,
I don't write because I have to-
I write because I want to;
And it's stuff you might relate to.
~
Some people might think I mean to hurt someone,
Others might think I may have said too much--
My words aren't meant to hurt anyone;
And I hope you don't take my words as such!
~
I have things troubling me---
As if you can't already tell,
Writing is what helps me to see,
Although I don't do it so swell!
~
If something I say has bothered you,
I do want to apologize from the bottom of my heart;
But no one is forcing you to read this through-
And no one told you to read from the start!
~
I was taught long ago to write how I feel,
When I do it this way I cause a lot less damage--
Sometimes it helps me to focus on what is real;
And help me to act more like my age!
~
Yes, sometimes I hold things in that I shouldn't,
I know that it is something I need to change;
And then there's times that I wish I couldn't--
And my mouth fires off like a twelve gage!
~
A lot of my life has been mistakes,
I'm sure I'm not the only one too--
I've had my share of gives and takes;
No matter what it is I do!
~
So what it is that I'm trying to say here,
Is don't hate me for what I've written or said--
Maybe you should just look in the mirror,
If you can relate to anything you've read!
~
In other words if you feel that I have written something about you,
Perhaps maybe I have- but allow me to explain why---
This is how I get it off my chest and the way I make it through;
I'd rather write and get paid, then sit here and cry!!

Insight: Think BEFORE You Speak or Write!

Think BEFORE You Speak or Write! 

Believe it or Not, I Know We Were All Taught This a Long Time Ago!

Deneale K. Williams, Yahoo Contributor Network
Sep 19, 2007

                                                                                      Have you ever heard the phrase: 

 

If you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all?

I had those words preached to me as I was a child, as did my siblings. But it is not the way of the World today. Today, we believe that bad press is good press, and that the quote unquote people need to know. We have been taught freedom of speech, and right from wrong, but it doesn't seem to help. Instead, it causes us more damage, then anything-more often than not.

When there are people, who have nothing better to do, they can make or break you.

We've all been called names in School. From the simpler ones, to the nasty ones that we would rather not remember. And rather we want to admit it or not, we have all hurt someone else's feelings sometime in our life.

Adults let little children speak frankly. I am sure you have heard it, children see things, wrong or improper, and will say something, and even stare. So that is excused. But we are children no longer.....

It is when you are an adult, that the stunts of acting out, lashing out, and attacking others is just plain uncalled for, and harmful to others.

And on the internet it is more common then anywhere else, because you can be someone, anyone-and that can include anonymous. Behind that monitor, you are safe. You can name call, point at, slam on and make fun of- someone less fortunate, someone going without, whatever the case may be. Sometimes, and more often than not, you don't even need a reason. But you don't care, because there you sit, safe, at home, with nothing better to do.

Have you thought about whom it is you are effecting? Cause and effect. For every action, there is a reaction! You slam on a family photo, with children in it, and the teacher decides today, we will learn to surf the net, and types the child's name onto the screen. Low and behold results appear. And the teacher clicks.

Let's give this child the name of Lisa Smith, because both names are common. There are links of many, some of art work, some of myspace, you name it. And then the teacher clicks one, and low and behold it is the picture of Lisa, and someone cropped it and added to it, and then wrote a few choice comments.

Lisa Smith cowers in her chair, in shame. Everyone in the room laughs.

How do you feel now?

This is only one example. You can go on and on with other examples. The net is filled with porn, and people who sit there behind that screen for days on end, doing nothing but typing, sitting in a chat room socializing, posting a blog, you name it. Some even get paid for it.

I have written many articles on words, and how they are one of the most damaging things in the World. Words can make others cry, or feel worthless, and you don't know everything-like you might think you do. You don't know what that person is going through when you call them a name or tell them you hate them. Your words of hatred could be the icing on the cake, and make this person take their own life. Have you thought of that, before you spoke or wrote?

This world we live in, is not a simple one. And to have immature agitators and aggravators add to the daily problem, is totally uncalled for. You do not know the person you are degrading inside and out, trust me. Even if you live under their roof, there are things people keep to themselves. But there is only so much- a person can take.


It sickens me that the internet can and does allow people to join chat rooms, forums, write blogs and posts, and comments that are totally uncouth, and to use a phony identity. If you have something to say, by God-let people know who you really are. This way they understand why you are saying it. I mean, if you want your vengeance, then give yourself the credit! I mean why not? What are you hiding from? What are you shamed of? You have to gull to write or say something, but not the gull to give yourself the credit? Then allow me to say to you, and your friends and followers-yes you need mental help! And I will bet on it, you have more to be afraid of, and ashamed of then any one of us! Otherwise, you would have said what you had to say, and then signed your real name, and not the name of someone you hate, or pretend to be!

So attack me if you must, but look in your own mirror, in your own closet and back yard, before making corrections and digs on those of us that you think are far more inferior to you. Because that is where the problem starts-with the trouble maker, the wiseacre, the real person who has real problems and real issues that doesn't want to address them, or can't address them. If you need help, ask for it. But don't drag the rest of us down with you!

No matter what you call me, know this:

I am still better then you, I have more blessings in my life then most anyone, and I am proud of that of which I am, and that of which I became. My family loves me, God loves me, and I have things to show for whom and what I am, and who and what I have become. What do you have? (Other than issues.)
 
I thank you for reading, and continuing to read my work. You are helping me to generate an income, which is a good thing! So yes, you are helping me! I have every right to thank you! You may be safely hidden behind a phony name, but I am not. I am not in denial, as you say. I thank you for advertising my world, my web sight, and getting me more customers, some of which-are your own friends! You are doing a good thing, as you do your "bad" thing. How else do you think I am aware of you? None other, then your friends!

And before I stop, have you ever thought of this: maybe those friends aren't really your friends? Maybe they just watch you, comment with you, because they want to stay out of and off of your path of hatred of others? They too know, the real problem, is you.

Like the saying goes:

Keep your friends close, and your enemies closer.


 
Thank you! :-)

Insight into Hatred

Hatred

 

Deneale K. Williams, Yahoo Contributor Network
Sep 21, 2007

As defined in the dictionary:

 

Hatred - (noun) the emotion of intense dislike; a feeling of dislike so strong that it demands action.
Notice in the above definition, "a feeling of dislike so strong that it demands action."

For every action, there is always a reaction. And if someone is causing you to hate them, they have you under control. You thoughts are of them, your desire is to get even, or lash out, and make it known that they are not liked.

Let's think for a moment shall we? What made you hate this person? What did this person do to you, to make you hate them? Because obviously they have had to do something.

If this person did nothing, is it jealousy? Because then you need to think of it this way, your hatred is not legitimately hatred. It is more envious then anything.

If this person stole something from you, abused in any way shape or form, then we need to look at it in another way also. Why did they steal from you in the first place? If they abused you, let's go with physically-what made them do it?

Why am I looking for reasons behind hatred? Because there has to be a reason, there was something down the line that made it happen.

And sometimes more often then not, our hatred cannot be justified. Sometimes we get so distracted by our daily activities; eventually we even forget why it is, that we hate someone.

Don't let your hatred consume you. It will eat you up inside, and take control. There are better things that you can be doing. Focus on yourself, things that need done, where you could go to relax, and what is more important. Everything is more important than hate.

To hate is human, to let it consume you, is pure evil.

Poem: Mother~In~Law!

Mother-In-Law

Deneale K. Williams, Yahoo Contributor Network
Nov 16, 2007

Although our relationship to date is much better then what it was in the 80's, 

I still dedicate this to my Mother-in-Law: Judy Williams. And to future Mothers-in-Laws, I tell you this:
strive to be different and succeed at what you strive!
Don't follow in the foot steps of the one before you, good or bad.
Be yourself, and be the best you can be and more!

Mother-In-Law!
I try so hard to please,
No matter what I do...
I'd love to put our minds at ease;
And know the fights are through.
~
Sometimes I wonder why,
We can't see eye to eye.
~
I want to be your friend,
I try to love you so...
Yet it doesn't seem to mend;
We're neither friend or foe.
~
Sometimes I wonder why,
Yet all I do is cry!
~
I know you have tried,
Or so you have said...
Many tears I have cried;
Since your son and I wed!
~
I know you can be nice,
Yet, you treat me like ice?
~
Sooner or later you will see,
What your son and I make...
Is a love that will always be;
The kind that makes you ache!
~
Sometimes I wonder why,
And if we'll ever see eye to eye!
~
