I’m not always “here” in the true sense of the word “here”, but I’m always some “where” due to the restrictive nature of physical laws. However, at some point, I may be forever anywhere at anytime due to the nonrestrictive nature of spiritual laws. (Learned the spiritual part from my life studies and the physical part from my wife’s periodically calling “Ed… Ed!… Ed!!… Stop thinking, you’re scaring the children!”)

My wife knows I live in my own far away world. I happen to be married to a very smart woman. She is a gift from God. But not without challenges. I think God decided a long time ago that He was going to take care of me… notwithstanding my stubborn self.

Susan, that’s my wife, feeds me and tries her best to help me organize my bio physical attributes. That’s not easy. I’m typically very far away and hard to reach… well beyond the Oort, just this side of the galaxy’s edge.

Susan constantly beckons me back to Earth. She doesn’t want me to get stuck so far away from other people. You see, except for spirits, I’m the only inhabitant of my world. It’s my home away from home. It’s where I do a lot of sorting. I’m always organizing my thoughts into what seems to be logical patterns… spaghetti into confetti. Writing helps with this. Putting my thoughts into written words and then editing until the cows come home… helps me focus on my mental attributes.

I also communicate with God. He is unimaginably incredibly friendly. God understands me. He gets my jokes. He’s always feeding me too. I feel Him in my bones when I’m admiring a sunrise or anything else He created. God has a supernatural and dry sense of humor. He helps guide my thoughts through my spirit and soul. When I’m listening, I feel love and peace.

I love God. I love Susan. I love my family and friends… including my web friends. I like to imagine you are always reading my writing which helps me feel like I’m not alone even when I am. No one should be left alone for very long. We humans are social creatures. We need each other, although we can drive each other crazy… when we’re not alone.

My world is my sanctuary. Here there’s no one that has evil tendencies. Evil is not allowed.

My world is very close to heaven, but not all the time.
