Dreams of a Mad God

It was a normal day on the planet wars hunger unbelievable acts of cruelty ,kindness love and happiness children being born people dying laughter and tears floods and famines sunshine and rain .It all started to shimmer people started to fade ,buildings mountains seas and land all disappeared. The planet Earth popped out of existence followed closely by Mars and Venus and the rest of the planets .The sun noticing it was all alone flew off to join the rest of the stars. The great spiral of stars spun faster getting closer together until it was single sphere.It got smaller and smaller then nothing .
The Mad God awoke with a grunt, his mate and companion Hedenia was already awake stirring the a great pot of amber nectar she was preparing for breakfast ."So you are awake " she shouted .The Mad God replied "so I had a long lie"
The she goddess’s anger rose "11 billion years call that a long lie ,Breakfast has been ready for at least 3 million"
"Sorry" the Mad God relied "but I had a really strange dream there was this thing called a universe it had stars and planets and things called life forms who did really wierd things ,but you know it felt so real "
Hedenia lifted the steaming pot of nectar and placed at the side of his bed. "Stop going on about your silly dreams" she sighed ,"eat your breakfast"

Life is stange

Anyone ever thought how strange the whole life thing is? I dare say there is rather a lot of people suspect that something is not quite right hence success of film like the matrix So why strange what is it about the human existence that makes us feel strange ,that everything is not quite what it should be. Do I know? I am afraid not but I feel I can highlight some of the strange things going on
Religion: how weird is that .Believe in something or someone that we have no evidence for .Being honest if everyone in the word believed in the same religion then I would not have such a problem with it but it is the out and out conviction that their religion is right that scares me this doesn’t fit with me I am afraid S o I must come to the conclusion that religion is all about people so it exists in the world of man not god
Religion might not be a cause of the strangeness but may in fact be a symptom .In basic terms Life is strange so there must be a god
Believing in something does not make it real does not make it unreal either
People: how weird are they .Basically 90% of their life is spent being stupid .This is Ok but what I find amazing is that they do not realise how stupid they are .You are your own private comedian, look at yourself and for goodness sake laugh.
What is so good about talking the amount of conversation I have been involved in where the most ill informed drivel you have ever heard comes gushing out of people’s faces .If they are trying to be funny then this is ok in most cases they think their opinions have some new found truths about reality .The way they defend their opinions is someone akin to their defence in trying to prevent getting their head chopped off
Speaking louder getting aggressive does not validate your opinion.
Work: what is that all about .get up go to work every day sell your soul and your life to ensure you have the basics in life .In modern western times we mean House ,cars food clothes entertainment .Comfortable ? yes but is the price too high. most people at work want to be somewhere else and fantasize about lottery wins and contemplate their retirement. Strange things also happen at work some people tell other people what to do .Bosses, managers call them what you will but the hierarchy of power and rewards never fails to amaze me. Most of which is based on illusions of what people think you are like. In most cases people fulfil the role they fall into not because of their talent but in spite of it, and I mean from top to the bottom of the structure.
More of these thoughts to follow

Golf the hidden hell

Golf was made for me ,some past crimes in a previous life no doubt forever dammed to facing the evil course .Like a true hero I face threaten it and know deep down that this time it will fall and does it happen ,well not this year .the beast has defeated me at every attempt this year .
I dont want to be Tiger Woods,just to play under my 24 handicap would be nice .(just a minute did I say I did not want to be Tiger Woods just in case there is some magical being out there who could actually make this happen then I do want to be Tiger Woods ,phew that was close nearly condemed myself to a life of being me).
One week can't putt another week can't drive can there be any other activity that abilities are lost in the course of 7 days and other mysteriously found
The true secret of golf is not the scoring but keeping your head together with disaster and euphoria happening every couple of minutes
Anyway I play in the big competition (it is for me) on saturday. This time oh yes I will destroy you my nemisis one way or another
