Musings March 2024

Motivation

is key

in ethics and industrial production.

Loving God

beloved by God

is mega.

Enthusiasm.

(from Greek enthous, meaning “possessed or inspired by God”

enables us

to achieve much.

Focused commitment

to the here and now

(no matter how hard)

generates joy

at the end of the day.

Hitler underestimated Russian character 

and potential industrial capacity.

Japan did the same with the USA.

Those errors cost them both the war.

Fascism

ignoring the psychology

of human ambition 

and thus industrial production.

caused

their military defeat.

WW2 killing many Americans 

rebirths the financial life

of the USA

enabling it to become 

the top super power

for a while.

As 

often unaware

we live in air

and need it to be alive,

in God, we live and have our being.

Life is a river

not

a pond.

Every’ now’

must become a ‘then’

in the future and

the past.

Soviet oil fuelled 

Nazi invasion of Russia.

Russian oil controls 

Putin’s so called allies.

Whatever their body

every human has ambitions

dreams, fears and hopes; 

needing God to be fulfilled.

Confessors

like refuse collection operatives

renew clean lives.

We are vessels 

that may be

filled with God.

Creation’s code?

The best

Vale la pena

costs the most.

Thanks to Hitler’s anti-Semitism

Einstein’s letter 

that led to the Atomic bomb

was 

thank God

sent to Roosevelt, 

not that corporal.

Life has no reverse gear.

Dementia patients cannot 

“Go Home”.

Thank God

Hitler was a maniac

who thought

his army could capture Moscow

before winter set in.

Thanks to Japan’s Pearl Harbor plan

Stalin could bring 

his seasoned 

far eastern troops

to defend Moscow

and thwart Hitler’s plan.

For my fitness to last

I must

occasionally fast.

Beauty attracts

not just people

but charities 

doing good work.

With time

though our physical

must decay

the spiritual may continue 

developing 

until we die.

Anti right-wing, military Zionism

swiftly morphs

alas

into Anti-Semitism.

Indiscriminate destruction

of infrastructure 

and civilian lives

inevitably generates

a new generation 

of radicalised jihadists. 

Faces

and even bodies 

like national flags

reveal nothing

about the wealth

culture or ethics

therein.

The silent music

of God's presence

enables me

to surmount

the barbed wire

rows

of fear.

Reality is a conglomerate of facts.

Truth is our perceptions of these.

We see as we are.

coloured 

by our education, focus, experience, 

and intelligence.
