LOTS OF WORDS

Food for thought

Have you ever thought about thinking. There's so much to think about. I don't even know where to begin. Thinking is such a wonderful tool. We can do it without anybody being aware that we are doing it. We can think about anything we want to, anything.

While we may think there are no limitations to thinking, I have to believe that there are. We can only comprehend things related to our past, or theorize things according to things about which we can have a mental grasp on. Having said that, I believe there are so many things not thought of. There are so many things our human minds can't think about. It would be nice to give an example but how can I, I can't think of it. I suppose the closest thing I can relate this to is heaven and hell. I believe that our minds do not have the capability of processing the likeness of heaven or hell. We do a great job of associating it to good and bad things but the trueness of it is never processed through our minds. We simply aren't able.  After all, we would never have known about these places if it weren't for a book telling us about it.

Another fun thing is to think about the speed of light. These are praticallly impossible to comprehend. Oh, and I don't mean the scientific formulas for these. I mean sit still and think that the light you see from the sun is not actually shining this moment. It took 8.5 minutes for that light to get to you. So, it continually travel at that rate. In fact, the sun could darken and you wouldn't know it until 8.5 minutes. Amazing! Things are never as they appear. But can you really see light traveling? I can't. No matter how hard or how long I think about this, I cannot visualize fully comprehend light traveling.
