One of the best things about having a blog is that you can write whatever you want 🙂 Sometimes it can help to write things “off your chest” and tonight I felt that I wanted to share a post with you all as I am curious about your views on these topics. Ok, here we go! 🙂
The new hypnosis disease
It is absolutely crazy nowadays how people are digging their head down into their mobiles EVERYWHERE.
When I am in the subway I swear that I look around me and I see that 99% of people are looking down on their mobiles… ALL the time! It is a bit funny and scary at the same time…
Are we really that uninterested in our environment, isn´t looking on other people interesting anymore? Speaking with your fellow human beings in the train?
I mean, personally I work online but I am sure that most people on the train are NOT working on their mobile, then it would be a bit more understandable but really come on, the weirdest thing is that I even sometimes see people that are around 80-90 years old who do this… What will come next?
Why is this happening? Are we people completely tired of talking or even looking at each other?
Why are we so separated?
Why are we so separated in everything today? Why do you get judged by others around you for what you look like, where you are from, what you like, what you believe, etc
What I mean is that first of all we are humans, why is that not the first thing you show respect to when you meet a person or get to know one.
Why do you always have to judge them by their clothes, their looks, their faith? If you are of different religions, what does it matter? If your god is the right one or mine? In the end, we believe in the same god anyway, there can´t possibly be many, right?
Are you more or less intelligent if you believe in god?
And if you don´t believe why do you have to call bad names and look strange on the one who does believe? It doesn´t make you either more or less intelligent whether you believe or not, why is it reflected that way on many places nowadays that if a person believes in god he is a “wacko”?
Just to be clear here, I personally do not see god and religion as the same thing. Also, I do not call Jesus the God of Christianity, Jesus was a man that came in a miracle way… He was the son of God and not God, right?
But do you know what, I don´t care if you believe that Jesus is God or if you worship the buddha or whatever because first off all you are a human?
You are always a human first of all. Humans are NOT perfect, we are far from perfect… We make wrong all the time and that is part of being human… ALL of us make mistakes so why do we judge others so easily?
You would probably be exactly the same as the person you judge if…
Think about it the next time you judge someone for his or hers belief or some other thing.
Think like this: “If I was born in the exact same place like that person, from the same parents, in the same house, same environments, same everything”…
…Would you be like that person? Would you act the same as him/her? Would you have the same job? The same mindset? The same faith?
What do you think?

Well I believe in god!
Jesus was the literal son of god. You and me and all the other people are literal spirit children of god. Jesus was the first born spirit of god.
Jesus was resurrected into an immortal being and is One with god and is the god of this world. He was the god of the old testament in the bible.
This is all according to the testaments of Jesus Christ or the scriptures.
Once He came to earth and then resurrected he became the head of the Church of Jesus Christ. The apostles died off after people became mean and killed them. The apostles even had prophesied that it would happen. There were prophesies of “a great apostasy” or a time when the church would no longer live for a long time until restored. This was also known as the dark ages.
According to the Mormons, sometime in 1820 it was restored to bring to pass the restoration of the church of Jesus Christ. The Mormons are actually called the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. This is because they believe the last days are right now. The last days are when Jesus will come for the second time from heaven and there will be peace on earth for a long time after that.
The main reason we need Jesus is because he can help pay us for all the crap we did here in this life so we can pay the debt to get back to heaven with God. No unclean thing can enter into the presence of God. This means without Jesus everyone goes to heck. heck is basically when we have to realize all the bad stuff we did for ever as spirits in some other realm.
There is proof that there is a God and a true religion. It is the presence of conciseness or the fact that we experience things at all. Some religions believe that conciseness can be transferred from one living body to another (reincarnation). The Mormons believe in the plan of salvation. LDS org explains it very nicely. In scriptures it even talks about “intelligences” existing before spirits did.
I have not decided what I believe in 100% and I don’t think vary many people have but I think if anyone is right, the Mormons are the closest. The bible even prophesies that the book of Mormon would come to be and that it would be ridiculed and have opposition. There are even scholarly articles on how the book of Mormon has been proven to be true and accurate with historical events. It is another testament of Jesus Christ and has been said to bring blessings to those who read it daily.
Reincarnation sound really cool though. I would become a penguin if it were the truth.

These are some deep questions you are asking. I think people judge other people to make themselves feel better. Perhaps, they feel badly about themselves; therefore, they lash out at others because of their own hurt feelings about life. I studied psychology and I learned that all behaviors are the result of previous stimuli. As far as people being glued to their mobiles… I think we have gotten to a point where technology is so ubiquitous that it may seem that that’s all we care about. I personally am a pantheist, which means that I think the universe is equal to divinity. I am not a Christian beyond celebrating in some of their cultural heritage. I have studied many different philosophies over the years though.

Our attention spans are so short from the constant checking social media, and all of the click bait on the internet. Our society suffers from addiction, and a lack of connection. One thing that can help is to have a great meditation practice. In short, it’s about getting to the space in between your thoughts, and learning to detach from identifying with those thoughts, and generally slowing the mind down. If this is done on a regular basis it can go a long way toward creating a healthy gratitude for life and a sense of peace.
