Final Frontier...

The final frontier...

Ghost hunters and me.

All the conjecture...

Some believe.

Some don't.

I don't know.

Something in me wants to believe.

To think that something so beautiful as a life

Is nothing more than a bundle of neurons and electrical impulses

Seems such a waste.

Note... I do not exclude...The lives of my pets.

I speculate here...

Maybe...

It is us!

Maybe we are the repository of all those beautiful things.

Why not?

With all the imperfections, with all the things we are.

Maybe we are that etching on the universe.

As long as there is someone to remember

The essence of the spirit will survive.

I will do my part.

Some will do a better job.

Thanks for giving me the opportunity

To try...

Final Frontier...

I am thinking deep, because I have had deep things to think about. All these years, that I have tried not to raise my head and get it shot off, have been torture. I have finally found a medium and means to express those things that have twisted my head around, and release the inner me. You have been an inspiration to me. You have bared your soul, and let me know that it is OK to show what is on the inside. I don't always have to be tough, I don't always have to stand up, I can let go and be who I am. I never wanted to hurt. I don't think anyone does, but being who and what we are is extremely liberating. I don't think I will ever be afraid again! Thank you, Jayne. Higgest bugs, and where the hell is that picture? ~ Gee.

Such a … well I am not

Such a ... well I am not sure what exactly to call the meloncoly and sadness that was protrayed even with in your hopeful and positive outlook. But I hope everything is well with you and life gives you the best there is. I like the story telling Gee, much more than the.... finalistic Gee in the over all. You could scare some people writing like that ya know. But it was a good, even if sad'ish write. Thanks for sharing it. Julie D.D.

Melancholy and sadness...

Just speculation, and wonder. No underlying reason. Thoughts that revolve and spin inside this brain, aching for resolution. Don't you wonder? ~ Gee

no one has the answer for you,

Oh my knight sir Geezer, I admire your modesty, and your breadth of feeling, no one has the answer for you, we each believe what we do and those beliefs differ all over the world. Where there are those who do not believe, they do not differ. Its a quandary for the individual, not the masses, and if we can live the best way we think possible, then we will have at least contributed our own reality of truth, whatever that really means! I like your sentiments here, but am myself in no doubt. Your Queen Ann of Norway ( Oh it sounds pompous!)
