Just a Thought

Words are our currency and the more we put into circulation, the less valuable they are.

I Wish the World Was Flat

In the depth of the night I walk down to the dock. No wind. No Noise. Looking out across the lake I see the distant lights. Some revealing the dim outline of structures, some too distant to reveal anything. I stand in awe of the dark waters, the dimly lit shorelines, and the distant lights revealing nothing.

What is it about the darkness, the dimly lit shorelines, and the far off lights that moves me? Simplicity in the darkness? Mystery in the partially revealed? Adventure in the distant?

In the light of day, while still beautiful, nothing I saw in the night would amaze me as much. It worries me that darkness brings more joy than light. If not knowing brings more joy than knowing, why are we vexed with the desire to seek answers? Perhaps we would all be happier in a flat world.

God's Sense of Humor

Man fulfills his needs by building a house, working his land, and creating a community.

Man figures out how to produce more than needed with less labor.

Man joins together to increase production. Great cities are born.

Production is perfected.

People are finally free to spend their time working on their homes, growing gardens, and being part of a community.

Better wrong at the right time, than right at the wrong time. But neither is possible.
