'I think my dad spared my life, because I was kind, occasionally.' Loving
I've shared recently, that I have been Truly puzzled why my Saint of a dad didn't have me killed. I mean it.
Today, my Birthday Month, an acquaintance from high school, said 'happy bday.' I replied how kind I found him. He replied instantly, that he found me kind, when he needed it. That in fact, 'made an impact on' his life.
His reply to my comment he was kind: "as you were !!! i was heavily bullied in High School --cuz i was a nerd but you were always friendly and fair to me ---never forgot that ..made an impact on my life actually !!!
I replied: "Truly, I have no idea why my dad, the kindest, most Loving human I've ever known, I don't know why he didn't have me killed. I'm not kidding. I feel no guilt, I did the best I knew (inescapable, for all of us), but oh God, I cringe at my total uselessness, total self-absorption by any and all earthly scales. But Friend, maybe you just gave me an insight into why he didn't have me put to death, but rather lavished unconditional love on me I've found incomprehensible to this very moment. Maybe he saw that at times, massively rare tho they could be, I could be genuinely 'good,' I could be genuinely 'kind.' Truly, what you just shared is quite valuable to me, a 'key' to my past, and my dad, that I'd been missing. Be well friend. Loving

'Tragically, My life is viewed as a Trial; Heaven, is how I experience it.' Loving
It's funny, so many people see my life as a trial. Never for a
nanosecond a year, do I experience it as a trial. I experience it as
the Life that I always suspected Jesus died to show us. Yes, it looks
like a Trial. I think that's the problem. Heaven, looks like a trial.
Pls give me an update. How are you and what are you up to. Loving
(what I go by. No 'Mr.' required. LOL.)
I don't know that anyone besides me saw Jesus life, not as a Tragedy, but as Heaven. I always did.
I was correct, it turns out.

Loving here. Confession - I was not born on Earth.
I find this post almost as weird as you may. But I experience it as a surprising new Truth for me, so I share.
No, nothing mystical involved here, and nothing to do with inter-stellar travel.
It came to me as I've reflected the last few days on an aspect of my lifelong, ever more acute social isolation.
There is much personal history of reflection I could resurrect and point to in my recent years of writing and vlogging that I could point to, but I won't. Anyone that has lestened to me will recall. Anyone interested, in several hours of reading, viewing what I've provided, will see what I mean, the precursers to this clearer insight I'm now experiencing and sharing.
I've always felt 'alien,' but I'm just now seeing how profound that is for me, and how deeply rooted. I am not speaking as to whether others have much the same feeling. That could be interesting, but it is not something on which I have thoughts at the moment.
Please hear this carefully - I've met few, if any, that I didn't think belonged on my 'planet,' which is not planet modern-earth. In fact, I've spent most of my life on the belief that we were all born on the same planet, and that everyone else left, and I've been trying to provoke a return.
It is still my belief that we all were created for, born for, the planet I am on.
But certainly my conviction that we were all born there, on the planet I was born on, has been replaced by the sense that I can think of no one else that was born there.
It is my thought that the planet I was born on, and re-inhabited in this recent decade, is preferable, the only Home of Joy. But this is not an issue of 'superiority,' 'good,' 'bad...' for me. It is an issue of sadness, perception of tragic lost opportunity, and consequent doom, unless there is a mass-migration.
The root of all this comes with the reflection in the last few days that my dad is the only person I can think of that I see was too, born on my planet. Yes, of course my vision is imperfect, tho I think it is very good.
He is the only other person I can think of that I've known, where their entire world consisted of working for the well-being of others, clinically, objectively. Nothing else, nothing 'equal to,' or 'higher,' not 'religion,' 'philosophy,' 'group affiliation,' ..., nothing.
I suspect that there are others that could read the above and find it not an unfamiliar perception - Jesus first comes to my mind in this regard.
