As astute readers have pointed out, I seem to have a very close and chatty relationship with God. They are right. God and I talk all the time. I was thinking I should document more of our conversations, but someone already wrote a book called Conversations with God. (By the way, I have that first one I just linked to – and I actually really liked the book.) But that book isn’t about MY conversations with God, which involve things like fire drills.
Okay, I went and entered “God” in the little Google search thingy I have over there on the right, and I saw that word a lot. I apologize. I’ll try to be better. On the other hand, I didn’t find what I was looking for, which is why the previous paragraph just ends with “fire drills.” What I did find, though, is this fantastic little paragraph I wrote back in Nov 2003. It made me giggle so I’m going to share it with you. God told me you’d like it. (See how I did that?)
“Wow, I was going to just post a link, but there’s a commercial on right now
to try to convince people that they can make money raising alpacas. I had no
idea it was that lucrative. Go to ilovealpacas.com for more info. (I’m not
building the link, because I don’t want them to know I’m talking about them.
Those alpacas are mean and they spit, you know? I don’t need that.)”
Isn’t that fantastic? Okay, now that I’ve entertained you, we can both carry on with our days.
Are alpacas close to God too?
Yes, because they can be found in the mountains!
I’d like to point out that height (or the level at which one seeks spiritual guidance) is quite prevalent in society.
Church steeples, cupolas, the Dhali Lama… all very high… especially the last one.
