Conversations with God
i want to be young again.
Whatever for??
i'm drying out.
You smoke, and you don't moisturize often enough.
true. but it would be nice to have elasticity again.
I told you: twice a day, without fail, any kind of lotion and don't forget your neck. Didn't I say that?
more than once.
You're just preoccupied. You've always been preoccupied.
oh - You're one to talk; You made me this way. by the way, how am i doing on the free will thing? am i making choices that please You?
You're improving.
i aspire.
I know. That's all I ask.
so, how's it going in Afghanistan?
It's a mess. I'm so tired of people killing in My name, but what can I do?
it always comes back to the free will thing, doesn't it?
Yep. It was My doing; can't blame anyone else. I figured if I was going to create in My image, I had to include all aspects of Myself. It's a pity most humans lack the wisdom to grasp that simple concept.
listen, don't blame Yourself. if most people realized the capacity in which You operate, they would -- well, i guess they would grasp the concept then.
Exactly. You see the enigma.
clearly. well, i'm going to get online for a bit. if You want to play Literati later, i'll be in Semantics.
