My apartment.

3:11 AM I asked Jesus to teach me strategies that previously I was not psychologically prepared to receive, to deal with the attacks of the enemy. I'm going to do a Scripture study today with index cards I want to buy from Paul Ludy. And wait. The results shall produce and organize themselves. I am confident of it. I will go in to work at 10 AM today, and see if I am needed. Then I will come home try to buy my index cards and start my Scripture study. The Rey movie should be delayed until it becomes the Rey movie and Skeleton Crew will be delayed. I'm watching a video about how to permanently get rid of familiar spirits. 4:19 AM This whole life is rigged in our favor if we do what is right. Familiar spirits are those who have been assigned to my bloodline, and to get rid of them I have to yield to God and speak according to His Truth about my life, agreeing with Him. That's how you stop evil spirits. Science is based on facts but the Truth is still to be known about many things. Physical light is not a constant-spiritual light is. The light in 1903 is faster than the light of 2023. Physical light is slowing down. Einstein's 'C' in E=MC2 is not a constant. When we speak the Truth about our future, and Believe His promises to us, we stop the familiar spirits. The familiar spirits imitate the Holy Spirit, becoming our counselors instead of Him. The Holy Spirit comes with Truth, not facts. You have to be careful that you're steering yourself right with your words and saying what you mean. When you do this you turn yourself over to be possessed by the Holy Spirit. Getting a familiar spirit starts with laziness-an act of disobedience. Relying on the Gifts of the Spirit but not working on your relationship (with God). You get no reward for using the Gifts of the Spirit but for yielding yourself to Him. Get into a vantage point where you can see what's coming. Get into praise. If you do not acknowledge the familiar spirit's power, you minimalize them. They throw a fit. Do not capitalize satan's name. Do not say 'this always happens to me'. Heaven is capital 'H'. Father is capital 'F'. Ministry is not talking about yourself. Let it speak for itself. Evil spirits will set the bar low and make it hard for you to obtain something. These evil spirits are working to create scenarios-they operate in rejection. That's what they know. They either push or pull you or drag you. The Holy Spirit leads you. To get rid of the familiar spirit, ignore it. Never think about working against God. That is blaspheme-unforgivable. You want to speak the Covenant-the Word of God. You don't have to try to produce fruit - you produce fruit. You don't have to try to try to be anybody - you are somebody-Just yield. God's going to make the enemy drink his own poison but you've gotta get outta the way. It is easy to do the Lord's work-you just have to yield to Him and He gets the credit for it.
The familiar spirit, in one last ditch effort to have control, told me the familiar spirit has been lying to me my whole life, telling me Maggie, who doesn't want me, is the one for and the two revelations God truly gave me point to a better future than I'd have continuing to pursue Maggie. I checked MeWe to see if Aly has accepted my contact request yet and it turned out that it was the wrong contact; wasn't her, and Maggie is the one I was told to dare to dream and to revive my dead dreams, and something the Holy Spirit told me about Maggie was reaffirmed to me in a prophecy a woman gave on Zadai's broadcast, that when it happens it will be bigger and better than I ever imagined.

Sabbath, August 19, 2023, Oak Grove, Missouri, Republic of the United States of America, North American Continent-
My apartment.

I'm watching all 12 primary Star Wars Movies and listening to them all at the same time, being totally immersed in Star Wars and RAIDstreaming. 1:29 AM CDT I beat a 35K team for the first time in the Classic Arena. I then beat another 35K team that was much harder to beat. While watching Star Wars, I am reading Carl Eckart's English translation (from Heisenberg's German) of The Physical Principles of Quantum Theory. I'm on p. 2. Of Small Worlds by Caleb Azumah Nelson, another Non Fiction book, I'm on p. 4. I'm doing 20 MultiBattles in Sewers of Arnoc on my RAIDstream. My Novitiate is Rank 3, Level 24. My 20 MultiBattles are complete. Now I'm completing my Daily Goals for 10 Gems and other rewards. 2:26 AM Completed my final Daily Quest of the day..At 3:15 AM, Attack of the Clones, by far the longest Star Wars movie so far, ended, then the video did. It was quite an experience. Thank You, Father, for it. 5:28 PM CDT Work was a fun half day with Sue my boss and my co-worker R. We put a bunch of duplicate books in the back closet, then put most of the empty boxes back in the back closet. We also exchanged "Classics" and Dramas (Plays) between the front of the store and the back of the store and shelved children's poetry and poetry anthologies. Also a shelf fell down and Sue raised the two shelves in question and put them back up, in the new poetry section at the front of the store, opposite face of Philosophy. After work, R. went to an Art Museum and I went home to charge my phone, take all my new books home and log my Budget book, then reorganized and made room for many books at heimat, then went to a funeral. After the funeral, I played a fun, dynamic, everything nailed on-point game called Primal Conquest: Dino Era (Early Access). Most other games of this type are rather boring compared to this, which contains that missing element, that Genese Pa, that just makes the game that much better. Then suddenly I was pulled out of the game and my phone seemingly of its own accord jumped to YouTuber The Star Bazaar Livestreaming currently Star Wars Battlefront II, and he's played as Kylo Ben, Count Dooku and a Battle Droid, that I have observed so far. Currently, at 5:47 PM CDT IRT (In Real Time) he is playing on the CIS (Confederacy of Independent Systems) side as a Battle Droid. They may stink against Jedi and battle-hardened fully trained Clones in Star Wars, but are quite formidable against ordinary people and ordinary armies, in fact, quite spectacularly deadly. The comic relief comes when Jedi and Republic Clones easily outsmart, outthink and outmaneuver them. I'd like to see a YouTube compilation of Tade Federation and CIS Battledroids being completely seriously in Star Wars for 10 minutes straight, but have not been able to find solch einer video yet.....7:09 PM After the Battlefront stream, I watched Kent Hovind: Dinosaurs and the Bible, then A Journey Through 25,000 Years of Existence: The Republic Timeline by Geetsly's. I remember my days playing Star Wars: The Old Republic and fighting alongside Ahsoka Tano and a Good Sith, both of whom helped me become a Dual Wielding Jedi Knight. O those were very fun days playing and streaming that game, and also as BlakeFett Lee the Bounty Hunter.

1 After sleeping, I got up at 2 AM and brushed and flossed my teeth and read the Word of the Lord, Elijah Message, Authorized Version, Message 09, taking notes on it. Then I read a little of Beyond Opinion by Ravi Zechariah, taking a note for my bulletin board, then wrote in Diary 2.
2 This is a new day; a new start. Yesterday I wrote the following prayer: God, I have failed you today. Forgive me, Father, who never faileth, and are faithful. Thank You for Your goodness, faithfulness and constancy toward us unworthy creatures. Amen.
Now it is a new start; a new day. Old things are passed away; behold God has made all things new. God is good. All is well. But all is not well in Zion. Yet.
3A I remember walking all over Downtown Flint getting copies of my papers in order to get my Social Security Card and other Vital Records, way back in the early 2000's.
3B Also I remember walking to Riverbank Park in DownTown Flint Daily, and to the University of Michigan Pavilion to browse books and buy them with EBT Cash at the Bookstore, and buy Sweet and Sour Chicken and Rice at the Pavillion Food Court and listen to the free music concerts, sitting and eating my Chinese Rice and Chicken.

3Q I remember reconciling with Debbie Darr at Clio Road Community of Christ after Grandma Marge died.
3R I remember helping Dad roof Grandma Marge's old house, now owned by the Barnes Family.
3S I remember we did not roof the very top tier of the roof because I desired not to because it was too dangerous.
3T I remember Grandma Marge putting dirty laundry down the laundry chute that led to Grandma's basement.
3U I remember playing Mancala with Regina's daughter Sable at Mary James Timothies Adult Foster Care Home, and later playing Mancala with Grandma Marge at Grandma's house when I later lived there before moving to Missouri the first time.
4 I think I will go back to bed now. It is 3:34 AM. LDS Instrumental music was playing before the window it was playing in mysteriously collapsed of its own accord. I will go back to bed after I update my computer Diary.
5 5:32 AM Just before 5 AM, I got up (my cat was just lying on top of me) and biked to KC's to grab a Mountain Dew: Code Red and a Sweet & Sour Chicken and Rice Breakfast, cooked my food and cleaned up cat puke.

Read It Again Bookstore

6 12:38 PM When I came into work today I diligently sorted over between 200-300 books into four categories: Children's History, Children's Science, Children's Maths and Children's Miscellany. It took me about 2 hours to do it. It was very fun. I put an empty box in the back closet, moved some full 'children's MISC.' boxes and some children's joke and activity books.
7 A woman came in and bought a whole big tote of Romance paperbacks, so we have gotten rid of even more of those.
8A 1:47 PM After my break, the only labor performed I was
8B packing a big box into the back closet.
9 To do this, I had to reorganize a bunch of small boxes.
10A I will be hanging out at the bookstore for
10B a while, reading, writing and Media Tracking.
11 It's nice and cool in this bookstore.
12A From this day forth, I will try to
12B write one page per day in my Diary.
12C Let's see how this goes.
13 I have an appointment tomorrow with my Med doctor. Teddy will
13B pick me up tomorrow at 12:30 PM
14A I'm going to start my cozy reading schpiel with Philosophy, The Federalist ,
14B and the Constitution by Morton White, fulfilling my fantasy of
14C just going into a library or bookstore and just reading whatever I like, nur instead of
14D doing it in the darkness, under cover of night, in
14E secret, I'm doing it right in broad daylight, after work!
15A After I leave here, I may just go to the local library and do the
15B same thing.
16 An angel told me (Or was it God? Inconsequential, according to Joy.) that I ought to make reading a habit.
17 This morning before work I read my Daily Proverb, Proverb 21, which has kept me all day long! Praise God!
18 I love God!
19 He loves me!
20 If I keep His commandments, obeying him, I shall have an inheritance among those who are sanctified.
21 Diary 88 also gave me a lot of guidance this morning.
22 I have a new project: Journal versification..
94 degrees F. Feels like 114 degrees F. Sunny, Partly Cloudy.
23 I tried to keep it one page, but the day is not even half over.

24 There is a point to it all. I've got to have faith in that.
25 9:27 PM After hanging out at the Bookstore until 5 PM, I returned to get my phone and charger, then ate Sweet And Sour Chicken and Rice.
26 Then I logged my Budget Book-Book I and put my books away, putting most of my journals in bins, totes and boxes.
27 I versified Journal 75 which I kept during Dec. of '022 and Jan. of 2023.
28 Now I will update my computer Diaries 2 and start Diary 3.
29 Behold I make all things New-God.
Sunny 96 degrees F Feels like 75 degrees F
The heat wave will continue through Thursday.

1 Last night I played an Virtual Reality game on my PC.
2 Then I played an erotic Twine game, but stopped when I realized its purpose was to try to change my thinking about gender identity and homosexuality.
3 Then I asked forgiveness from God and started playing a different Twine story on the same website, 'The Writer Will Do Something'.
4 I'm starting Monday at 9:30 AM. I am 20 Years Old. It is late 2010's. My co-workers are Josh, creative Director, Mike, Lead Designer, Troy, Lead Producer, Shawn Level Designer, Erika, Art Director and me, Meme, project leader. I reformed the BOI school and became a legislator, enacting laws to make men and women equal again in half a generation, then went back in time to write video games. Although I started one of them, I never played it or its sequel, and I am Project leader for the third game in the series. Six years ago, Josh made Dying Gasp, an innovative and highly influential first-person adventure game with minimal combat and poor sales. I play lots and lots of sports to boost my Testosterone almost daily and lift small weights. Josh cheerfully admits he dreamed up ShatterGate, the game we're working on now, to make money. He tried to leave the ShatterGate franchise after the ShatterGate State: Scoured Lands debacle. But he was drawn back to the world he'd helped create. ShatterGate: Future Perfect is our current project. It is costing my company an astronomical sum. Josh asked each of us, at our meeting, to say what we felt the problem was. I was first. I said that as a writer I share some responsibility for the game's poor showing. "The narrative isn't working. Some of it is my fault. Maybe a lot of it is. We're trying to explain too many things at once. Right away we're laving on this narrative group that takes way too long to add up to anything."
Mike agreed, adding that he always thought going down this route was a bad idea. Too much backstory when it should be more about combat.
He added that it's not even about the gameworld.
Josh disagreed. He said that fans digged backstory, and because fans like it, we get richer.
Shawn started to say something, but Josh cut him off, who got angry and started swearing, berating the 'Dark Souls' example Shawn tried to bring up, saying its irrelevant here.
Troy, Shawn and I are fans of 'Dark Souls'.
And even Josh has played a fair amount of it, which I knew from his many 'Dark Souls' trophies.
But because the GM of our studio, Drew, hates 'Dark Souls, Josh is forced to not permit it to be imitated. According to market studies Drew claims to have read, consumers don't find the type of things 'Dark Souls' has to offer desirable in a videogame. "It does well with the 'core' he conceded, but "Dark Souls is commercially unviable with ShatterGate's budget.
And that's how my little misadventure began.
I, Meme, sat through Josh's endless Whiteboard diagrams.
Three years later....
Monday, 9:30 AM
We have a meeting.
ShatterGate Online is now a successful MMORPG.
When I got home, I made coffee. I gave a cup to my wife, Sylvia Alexis and was drinking one myself.
"I was raised by two mothers," I said. "It was disgusting. The primary mother, Karen, sent me to a gender reassignment school, which I reformed, teaching the women and boys there that men are just as precious in God's eyes as woman and that a ,man can't in Reality be a woman, or visa versa, and God created us to be equal. This came about when I found a Bible online and found an underground Church of men and women in my community the world at that time in the future branded a cult. I also found a way online to Time Travel to the past and see what the earth was like today.
"You're from the future?" Sylvia Alexis asked.
"Yes, and so is my brother Malcolm. I went and got him. My "parents" here in this time period I adopted as Mentors. I first heard about the past on a TV news program, The porn on my phone disgusted me so I turned my phone into a religion and time travel research device. I let go of a lot of old friends and my Lesbian parents, and the prospects of having an attractive girlfriend. Now that ShatterGate is so successful I'll always have a steady income to support you and our future kids."
"Honey, do you ever have dreams of premortality?," Sylvia Alexis asked me.
"Yes," I said "I dream of a haunted mansion, a gun range, a subway where people were shooting at me, a graveyard callec Camp Crystal Lake, an antigravity club and portals, and more. Weird, I know."
Two years later...
I became depressed. I was 25. Sylvia Alexis and I's marriage was three years old. We had a son. We lived in an apartment. I was bored with my job. My adoptive Mentor Parents give my life a sense of normalcy.
It was an unseasonably warm Wednesday evening. I had spent the last several hours at work. Drew, my boss, told me it's dead and I could go home early. I, Meme, walked home. It had rained recently. I knew that Sylvia Alexis, my wife, would be in classes until late and that a babysitter was watching our kid, who was probably asleep by now. The thought of working on the project that awaited me when I got home caused panic to set in. I was far behind on it. When I arrived at home, the babysitter, who was reading a book she brought, in the livingroom, left after I paid her. I changed out of my uncomfortable work clothes and checked on the baby-he was fine. I felt stressed. Although I tried to work, I couldn't concentrate, and made negligable, but some, progress.
Friday afternoon.
Sylvia Alexis called me from one of her classes, and told me that there was going to be a 'really awesome birthday party tonight'. I didn't go. I made the excuse that I was not feeling well because she hinted of infidelity at the party of a sexual nature if I went.
Saturday afternoon.
My adoptive mother had come over for a surprise visit. She asked me how I was after inspecting my undone dishes, and I changed the subject. She asked me if I'm ok, which made me feel uncomfortable. I remained under high stress.
Sunday morning.
I was idly clicking away online when my phone rang. Sam asked me how I felt about cats. He offered me a kitten. I accepted. I spent the rest of the afternoon after church researching cat care online and trying to think of a name. It was black and white. She curled up at the foot of Sylvia Alexis and my bed at night, eyeing us nervously before falling asleep. (My wife Sylvia's middle name is Alexis). Over the next few days, I gained the kitten's trust and she began affectionately following me around, sleeping on me, and hopping up on me and my wife any time we sit down, to do some work or homework. The cat got along fine with the baby and my wife.
Late Friday Afternoon.
I stayed in with my wife, but I was starting to feel withdrawn from her.
Sunday Afternoon. Breezy.
I was having an affair with Amanda today. We had talked over the phone and had decided to meet. She was an old friend from College. I opened up to her during a two hour car drive. Amanda listened and rubbed my back, though she seemed unsure of what to say at the time. She mentioned that her mother was seeing a good Therapist in town, and offered to ask her about it..I was not thrilled with the idea, but Amanda persisted. I did not end up having sex with her.
Monday and Sunny.
My brother, Malcolm whom I taught Time Travel to, was in town, and free long enough for us two to actually see each other. I had a dental appointment that day and my brother was scheduled to meet me in the parking lot and pick me up from my appointment. My dentist mentioned that I've started grinding my teeth in my sleep. He suggested I try to reduce my stress levels and fitted me for a night guard. I was half an hour late for the meeting with my brother. He was making a lot of money and his career was really taking off. "A man really CAN do anything a woman can do" he said. He would be looking at houses with his wife soon. "Women are stronger than men, though, and a mant really cannot give birth, not in reality." I reminded him. "True," Malcom acceded. I told him about the tooth grinding problem, but not the stress causing it. "The dentist said I'm apparently grinding my teeth too much when I sleep." "Oh?" Malcolm replied. "Been stressed out, kiddo?" "I don't think that's the case," I lied. "It's probably just a random thing," I said. He didn't pry further and stated reminiscing. "Hey, remember that time you chipped a baby tooth because I accidentally knocked you over once? Karen really punished me for that."
We went out for dinner and caught up on things, yet I thought my brother was hanging out with me out of pity that night. At night, I threw the night guard away. I couldn't stand to look at it. Sylvia Alexis never knew about it yet, though I told her about it later.
Sunday, dry.
I grabbed my morning coffee and scooted my rapidly growing kitten off my office chair, and checked my e-mail.

Amanda: Hey, sorry it's been a few weeks-I meant to get this to you sooner, but it took a while for me to get a hold of my folks back home. Dad told me to say hi by the way. Anyway, I remembered what we talked about last time I saw you and I hope you're not insulted, but I asked my mom for the number for her therapist. Don't worry! I didn't tell her who it was for. I think she is worried about me now, though, haha
Anyway, the number is 647-723-5274. It's a really good office, you should look into it. Talking to someone never hurts. If you're worried about money, don't be. They're one of the few that has a really good sliding scale fee system and won't charge you what you can't afford.
I hope you're feeling better. It was really nice to see you again!
-A

I slept on it, not too keen on the idea. The rest of the day passed by quickly.
The next day, after wrestling with the idea for a few minutes after re-reading the email two or three times, I called the number.
I scheduled an appointment.
Quicker than I realized, Appointment Day rolled around. My wife was supportive, and had forgiven me for seeing Amanda.
Susan, my Therapist, made me feel comfortable fairly easily.
As I left I made a second appointment.
I was still skeptical, but figured I might as well see where this goes. The hardest part, it seemed, had been taking the first step.
When I got home I was emotionally exhausted and collapsed into bed after changing and feeding the baby, and putting him to sleep, and taking care of the kitten. I slept better that night than I had in a week.
Early Wednesday morning.
Lately I'd developed a habit of waking up 10-20 minutes BEFORE the alarm. Today was no exception. But I stayed in bed, then slept past the alarm, hiding under the warmth of my blankets. After several snooze cycles, I decided that I just couldn't deal with work today. But I got by and headed to work anyway. I was only 5 minutes late.
Sunday, 2 AM
Worries about everything, including my very IDENTITY kept me up. I had racing thoughts. I got up and went to my computer. An online chatter alerted me to the fact that he/she believed I may have depression. I told him/her that I actually HAVE talked to someone about it. attic is a he. He was supportive about my Therapy.
After talking to attic it was easier to drift back off to sleep next to my wife with the kitten in tow. At this point I was depressed and I knew it. Interaction was exhausting and I was becoming more and more withdrawn.
Breakthrough.
On an utterly nondescript Wednesday afternoon; the type of afternoon that would completely fail from memory unless one made an active effort to preserve it, I was sitting on my Therapist's Couch and suddenly she recommended supplementing my Therapy with Medication. Although it was a lot to think about so suddenly, I agreed to augment my Therapy with Medication, after thinking the matter over long and hard.
Wednesday Evening-
My wife, baby and I visited my adoptive parents for a Holiday. They invited my brother Malcolm because he was my brother though he did not adopt them, they still considered him family. He arrived with his wife.
We all sat down to dinner. My adoptive parents asked me what I wanted to do with my job. I said, honestly, I wasn't quite sure right now. I wanted to open up to them when my adoptive mother Linda pressed me about having goals set, but I got very quiet. The rest of the meal and my mind went numb. Everything inside me felt exhausted. At this point I doubted my medication was having any positive effect on me.
Days or weeks later, although I was at a point where I was depressed, and interaction was exhausting, and I was becoming more and more withdrawn, I found that I was able to get quite a bit done on my project and was able to help out my friend attic with an issue he faced.
Saturday Afternoon, Sunny.
I was in deep thought on the way home from Therapy. However I noticed that that time I was not in the same negative feedback loops I usually got trapped in when being that introspective. I realized that, although I still have bad days my lows aren't quite as low as they used to be!
I've been on my meds for quite a while now, after a period of trying a few different kinds. Though I still had minor side effects, they'd overall become an unnoticed part of my life. My wife and I got along better. I felt as if my life had generally changed for the better at that point recently.
I thought 'why not go off my meds?'
But I thought better of it. I continued taking my meds.
When I told Susan, my Therapist, that I considered but thought against going off my meds, she informed me that this is a common train of thought that people who have begun taking medication to help them manage their depression experience, and that I had managed to dodge a bullet because it generally ends poorly. She also asked me to talk to her first before making any decisions about my medication in the future.

It was yet another sleepless Thursday night. My wife, Sylvia Alexis, was sleeping peacefully beside me as I lay wide awake in bed. She fell asleep hours ago, and I had been laying there unable to shut my brain up long enough to fall asleep. I gently woke my wife up by tracing my finger across her arm and we discussed my depression all night long. I had never really completely opened up to her about it before. She knew about the Therapy and pills, but tonight I had opened up to her about my true feelings, or lack thereof. "I don't know how you could love me" I said. She kissed me on the forehead. "Just know that I do," She said. We drifted off to sleep.

Although I was definitely still depressed, things were getting better. Whatever I was doing seemed to be working. I was really feeling like I was taking steps to effect positive change in my life.

5 years later

Our Seven Year anniversary. Little Jonesey is six and had a little sis named Mags, with one more on the way.
Although I will struggle with depression my whole life, and still have bad days-sometimes REALLY bad days, my life is on the whole totally positive now. I still see my Therapist and use the Cognitive Behavioral Techniques she taught me. I take short two-minute breaks every hour at work to break up the monotony and have advanced my career greatly and have plans, goals and dreams. My Identity is in Jesus Christ, my Lord and my God. Amen.

5 I played a fun, satisfying game called Depression Quest, written and Coded by Zoe Quinn and edited by Patrick Lindsey
6 Now I need to go to Jack and get my store credit adjusted. Ciou4now.

Oak Grove, Missouri, USA, North America,
Pete's house.

7 Pete made lunch for us and started my laundry, and now we are watching the Series Premiere of 'Ahsoka'.
8 1:57 PM The first two Episodes were awesome! Consistent with Rebels, Clone Wars, the OG Trilogy and the Mandalorian! Praise God! Thank You Father, for such a good Star Wars Series! Amen!
9 After watching Young Jedi Adventures, I'm watching Star Wars V: The Empire Strikes Back and reading until it's time to go home and then to the Bookstore, to adjust my credit.

10 Like Good Philosophy, Good Theology, Good Religion, Good Legend and the True Parts of Mythology, True Tradition, and Maths and Good Science, Star Wars Canon just all hangs together well.

Downtown Oak Grove, Missouri, USA, North America,
Read It Again Bookstore.

11 Better a bookstore that is near in this super hot weather than a library that is far away.

12 After giving me 5.00 store credit for 5 books I turned in, Jack told me I will have to talk to Sue, not him, about adjusting my credit for the err she made, so until that err is corrected, I can't get Outline of History by H.G. Wells - Full Set, like I desire. Then Jack gave me permission, since I work here, to sit and read here until close, then I will go to Pastor Pete's church after returning home to take my pills (but I ended up going straight from the bookstore to the church and taking my pills much later that night).

13 I'm watching Star Wars Theory's Ahsoka Episodes 1 & 2 Watch Party to see his reaction to and review of this spectacular new Disney + Star Wars Series.

14 I started ESB today when Luke was missing and ending it at the Emporer's Transmission, partway through it. Then I folded and put away my laundry in my laundry tote.
15 Pastor Pete drove me to the Bookstore. It closes in two hours.
16 I'm about to continue the book on Philosophy, The Federalist, and the Constitution by White, and writing my Bibliographie., which I continued earlier today. Over the past 10 days I let go of 12 Books.
17 Niatus (Theory) is wearing his 'I heart Prequels' hat.
18 This is not live. He's warming up with some games. What's Rebel Moon? I can't wait for Star Wars Outlaws.
19 Earlier I spread in my Diary a rumor that Boba Fett was going to be in Mando3. I wish to correct that. He was not.
20 There are 7,500 people in the chat.
21 I liked. 10K Likes. "Even if Star Wars goes down, at least we're all hanging out."
22A For many people disappointed by the Disney Star Wars offerings of recent date, Ahsoka is make or break for them. Many are saying if Ahsoka tanks, I'm/we're done; we'll go back to pre-2012 Canon and OG (and Prequels).
22B I have enjoyed most things Star Wars recently personally, and was hardly disappointment at all by hardly any of it.
23 I have my water to quench my cracked voice and thirst.
24 I'm ready to go grab the Philosophy and U.S. Constitution book now: It is 4:27 PM.
25 I took a break from my Media Tracker log, at least for now. It was becoming too much to keep up with.
26 To book! No more distractions!
27 Philosophy, The Federalist and The Constitution, pp. 6-9.

30A Karen Armstrong has come a long way in her faith journey, yet she still stubbornly holds to Muhammet as a true prophet and Islam as an outcropping of Christianity. She saw a footnote by an Islamist who talked about a science of Compassion-that when we read of a religious tradition that is completely foreign to us, say 'but why' 'but why' and don't let go of that, and we will see that were we in their place we'd feel the exact same way, so we feel with them.
30B She says we need both Mythos and Logos-Myth and Logic.
30C "If you apply the Rules of Logic to a poem the poem won't work. The Scriptures are works of art"-Ibid.
30D She still thinks the varying descriptions in the Bible of God are contradictory.
30E Lord, help her get her head screwed on straight and to think 100% right about God, the Christ and Christianity, Good Philosophy, Good Theology, Good Traditions, Pure Science, Truth and Metaphysics and Reality and Ultimate Reality and Faith.
30F She thinks NOBODY is right about religion.
30G She says, rightly, that once we are enmeshed in argument we are wrapped up in our own opinions and that is selfish, all about our ego, to paraphrase.
30H But many do believe rightly about religion.
30I But if I had lived with her circumstances and experiences, I have compassion on her because instead of believing the Truth, I'd believe like her.
30J Lord, grant her a knowledge of Ultimate Truth. Amen.
30K I admit I am not in sole possession of the Truth.
30L No one person, save Jesus Christ, has a complete and total corner on Truth because He Is Truth.

6 I'm going to bed.

7 The Indian Villagers have not watched SW III-IX yet.

8 I seem to have little pleasure or interest in doing things during the day and I want to sleep and fantasize, and I want to do everything during the night, often staying up all night long doing those things I did not feel at all like doing in the daytime, with or without sodapop.

9 Sue didn't need me today. She has to do work herself today so there'll be work for me next time.

10 It is 10:33 AM. I'm going to bed.
