The Inevitables of Life

-


There are some things that are inescapable once you are born into the world. Things that

no matter how hard you try to evade, they will still impact you in your life.

 

For one, you are going to make mistakes. This is an inescapable fact of being human. The important thing is you learn from them. The world and many people in your life may not forgive you for many of your mistakes, but human beings are not notable for being the most forgiving of creatures. Forgiveness is a divine trait, not a human one, and the most important person to forgive is yourself. If other people can't move past, that's on them.


You are going to royally piss someone off at some point in your life, or many people. Some people will be pissed just because you still exist. Again, this is on them. If you are upsetting people for being who you are when you've done no harm to them, that's their insecurities, their flaws, that they are not strong enough or brave enough to overcome. 


Don't be ashamed of being brave enough to be yourself.


You are going to say things you regret and do things you regret.


You are going to be a hypocrite. Only Jesus in all his glory can reserve the right to claim to be free of hypocrisy. The rest of us would be hypocrites by claiming not to be hypocrites.


You are going to break someone's heart. Whether it is a pretty girl, a cute guy, a friend, a sibling, a parent, at some point you are going to devastate someone you love.


Someone will break your heart. That's something we all face.


You are going to have broken dreams and lost causes, but God is the great returner of broken dreams, and eternity's a long time to have your dreams fulfilled.


You are going to lose someone who you love dearly to death. A true inevitability. No one lives forever, and you will taste a harsh loss.


You too, will also die.


Death is a certainty.


Taxes? Not anymore these days. A lot of people are getting away without paying them.


On top of the negative inevitabilities, there are positive ones, too.


You will fall in love with someone. No one is brought into this world without some measure of love in them for someone.


Someone, somewhere, in some way, loves you more then you could ever know.


You will win...something...at some moment...in some way, even if you are not an athlete.


You will have fun...many times...but not all the time.


You will help someone more than you could know when you are helping them.


You will have happiness and joy, even if life is bleak and dark.


God...or lord, creator of infinite potency, and heavenly father, will love you, even if you don't love Him.


There are many more, but this list is what I came up with on my smoke break. Since I don't smoke anymore writing is my cigarettes now.


Much healthier habit I suppose.

No One is a Lost Cause

     There is not a single human being on the planet who is a lost cause. There is hope for anyone and everyone who still draws breath in this world. Even into eternity and the realm of God there is always hope and mercy to be found for those who lost so much and had such misfortune or detriment fall upon them in life. Jesus is the great rescuer of the lost. The great savior of sinners and broken people. The great returner of broken dreams.       To Jesus, there is no such thing as a lost cause, a hopeless case, or an impossible situation.  Even though people lose hope sometimes and sink into despair, eternity and the Kingdom of God is a place where hope never dies and the lost are found eternally, never to be lost again.  With God, all things are possible, and all those lost are findable.       Jesus specializes in the mending broken hearts and broken dreams, and eternity is a long time to have dreams fulfilled and rest i...

The Fortress of Neptune

-
Image
Some people strive to turn their mind into a fortress—a Stoic "inner citadel," an impenetrable bastion of psychological and spiritual security that no danger or enemy can conquer or destroy. It’s a noble and intriguing endeavor, turning your mind into a fortress. But for myself? I would forgo the citadel and instead transform my mind into a bottomless ocean. An unfathomably deep ocean that I can retreat into, like a submarine capable of withstanding the abyssal depths. The further down you descend into this ocean, the more untouchable and unreachable you become to your enemies. It is the mental "Fortress of Neptune." Where a bottomless ocean of living water and living thoughts serves to be my impenetrable Fortress and infinite Bastion. If a bottomless ocean is my Fortress, what could destroy me? A bottomless ocean of thought and ideas. A bottomless ocean of psychological and spiritual security—indestructible and unconquerable. It’s hard to conquer an ocean and impos...

Infinitization

The Infinitization Process: A Comprehensive Exploration Introduction Infinitization refers to the process of taking a concept, thing, or system—typically understood as having limitations or boundaries—and expanding it to possess infinite depth, infinite complexity, infinite diversity, infinite nuance, and infinite dynamics. This idea transcends traditional philosophical and metaphysical approaches to existence by positioning the infinite as not merely a characteristic of God, the cosmos, or abstract mathematics but as a quality that can be applied to concepts, systems, and relationships. This process connects deeply to your previous theories on Logos, words-as-sets, words-as-fields, and the nature of infinite existence. Through this framework, the infinitization of concepts can be seen as the ultimate act of creation, transformation, and expansion. (If you want to read more of my own writings and my AI work I've done on word sets and word fields, check out my article here:  Words-A...
