13 CONSIDERATIONS

by Phillip H. LaRochelle

All our lives circumstances and trials are vastly placed and unique. This earth's history is still not fully known, and still lacks all the answers of this 3rd speck from our Sun, as well as an unending universe. If science has unequivocally proven that Homo-sapiens have existed on this planet we call home for the last 160,000 years, (man's time), and dinosaurs really did exist, (museums of fact), then where does that leave questions or answers for those that may never heard of some God or Savior, as we have in our day plus the recent past? Is it not our desires to hope for something better? Is it not our desires to excel? Do we really have a reason to not just merely exist, and then when our lives are over, it's just that? Or, is there a better hope for humanity. After-all, we all must pass one day, so why not just try to do our best with what each one of us have individually, and just hope for something better? These poems are theologically based, however, from a different perspective you may not be aware of. While there is major controversy of "who's right" versus "who's wrong", or whether God must be some heathen God for why things go wrong in the world as they do, this is not the case. Throughout history, wherever one was born in this world, all we all can do is our best with what we have been given, and realize that everyone makes their own free choices. That's what it's all about....free choices if it's in our power. Whatever is in someone else's power, king or emperor or president falls on their own shoulders. The primary factors are hope and mostly "unfeigned love", but especially the attributes of keep trying. "You have not become a failure until you've stopped trying". And, even then, there is still hope for us all. What is an "act of faith" except we try to believe in the unseen? Why give a prayer if we don't expect results? Does not a child ask his or her parent for food or water? Hopefully, he or she does not ask in vain. That's how it is believing in someone we all do not remember, (veil of forgetfulness). Maybe, like a beautiful flowers seed that has no beauty until it's planted in the earth, we too are here for a brief time and are frail and subject to all kinds of sickness. Then, when we all go back to mother earth, (our natural bodies), our invisible soul is released to the aeons to comprehend more than our natural selves could understand. There are too many documents or texts within our world libraries that display the existence of our soul in the afterlife. These numerous texts must hold substance or validity as to the history of what people both saw and heard. As in life, we all have different positions within a society, so it may be in death as well. Furthermore, not adding to the sorrows of death, are the extreme pleasures that many get to enjoy while alive and here where we call our home. Everything has a positive and negative factor. One can not exist without the other. These poems convey to many about what it may or may not be for countless souls that ever even heard of some God or Savior. After-all, not everyone heard a word. I share these poems with you through my own life experiences of bad and good. We all love our families, or most do, and we wish the best for our friends and strangers that we meet. These poems convey to those of us, that have the capacity to appreciate or understand their meanings, that obviously there is life in just about every single living organism, but we are more than they all. From a slightly different perspective, these poems are in fact something to "Consider".
