I was looking at a star and I noticed something. I realized that the spikes of light that shined out in all directions were just an illusion. We can only see the light that enters our eyes. We can't see light going from point A to point B, we can only see light going from point A to our retna. The twinkle we see when looking at a star is light shimmering off particles in the atmosphere between that star and your pupil.

What I've come to realize is that light is everywhere. We only perceive it as it leaves it's source and as it reflects off of matter. Light would appear vastly more pervasive if we could see it fly perpendicular to our sight line. I envisioned in my mind the sky if we could see the light of stars growing outward like a bubble. Then I realized that the only place in space where was no light was where there was matter. Matter reflects light and casts a shadow.

There was nothing. A void. Then god said "Let there be light" and it was good. That light entered the void and turned nothing into space. That space is the building block of our universe.

Knives

It's hard to admit, but my first knife was a swiss army knife I stole from my dad when I was little. Later I got a 5 inch folder with a wooden handle marked 007. I lost those knives, but my interest was sparked. I went to the knife store to get a new knife. I got a Benchmade monarch. When I was at the knife shop I met this beautiful lady that worked there who had long grey hair, she told me about Spyderco and I liked them so bought a few. I got an endura and a police model. Then I lost the police model, the endura was confiscated by the cops and the BM got me expelled from high school. Sometime later I got a new endura, it was my only knife. I broke the tip-off of it. I sent it to spyderco to have it fixed and they refused, So I refused to buy anymore knives from them. I set off to find a better knife than a spyderco. I tried kershaw. I got an AO blackout, it was one of the 1st assisted knives ever. I loved it, but it was stolen. Then I tried SOG. I got a flash II, a pentagon elite and a trident. I lost the flash, gave away the trident and still have the pentagon. I still couldn't find a knife as cool as my Spyercos. Then came back around to Benchmade and picked up a 710. It's been mostly benchmades since then, with favorite being a 630bk. I've started buying Spydercos again. I bought endura 4 with reenforced tip the day it came out, I'll a get a Szabo folding fly when it comes out.

The Answer

Here is a little time-lapse video I made this morning. The actual video is only around 15 minutes but since everybody has ADHD now-a-days I shrank it down to 2 minutes. Turn up the volume.

I'm like a triple threat. Painter, film-maker, rapper/producer, what will I conquer next. Video-games?

Damn. I hate making comments about current events. My blog is about sharing timeless wisdom. Unfortunately a whale trainer was killed by a whale. A Killer whale. It's sad. People are vilifying a captive animal and a woman that loved whales has brought a lot of heat on her friends. That orca has killed 2 other people.

I guess people shouldn't trap killer whales in pools and force them to do tricks.

Garden of Eden.

A lonely God creates Adam, and then modeled Eve out of Adam's ribs. Eve sinned by eatin an apple from the tree of knowledge and brought death.

Sorry, but I have to suggest that humans kill and always have. Killing is how we became human. We have always known how to kill and we will never forget. An earthling; flora or fauna gave it's life so you have dinner tonight.

Poem

Swat is the flyest guy alive
Flyer than all the bees in a beehive
I strive to revive the drive
in my people so we can survive until 3005
I
Im the most under-rated overrated mc
I'm most creative innovative native.
Of this Boston city, it's a pity it's gritty
I rep the Bean for infinity, cuz it's where I lost my virginity

My mind is 10x more refined that Einstien
Im arragance is asinine combine with the divine
press rewind if you missed a line
cuz this is hotest flow you'll hear in your whole life time.

Swat simultanitly witness
I'm the fittest dude gitting down to business
The papratzi is constantly stalking me
SWAT all over your tv.

When I was a kid my brother did a science project on fossil fuel. My Dad did a lot to help my brother make a good project. It was a very good depiction of the way fossil fuel is accumulated. It had a few small T-rex cut-outs that represented the ancient organic material that becomes oil over time.

Then when I was 17 I had to put my car in the shop. When I was riding the bus home, I felt like I had brought my car to the doctor. That personification of my dear ol' hoopty lead to a train of thought about the the life-like quality of cars. When you turn them off, they sleep. When you turn the key they wake up. They have an engine that beats like a heart. They inhale oxygen and exhale carbon-monoxide. Cars have the equivalent of arms, legs, bones and skin, and headlights are in a strange way perfectly opposite to eyes. You're the brain and the steering wheel and gas pedal are the nervous system. And They eat gasonline, which is the life juice of cars.

What is gasoline or the oil that it comes from? How does a liquid hold so much fire? Why can that liquid bring a car to life? What is oil for?

Oil is liquid life. It is light. It is light captured by the earth through the photosynthesis of green leafy earthlings. Life forms hold liquid light as fat until we die at which time we relinquish it to planet. The Earth is accumulating light in the form of oil.

I told you the Truth. Oil is one of the main things that transforms when you know the Truth.

Gathering light for our home is purpose of all life on Earth.
