Just Thoughts

I'm a bit late making an entry this week due to personal circumstances.

My father has somehow managed to hang on a bit longer under hospice care. I'm able to see this as a bonus since it wasn't expected and I suspect it has been the prayers of others responsible. Work seems to have brought an increase in cases of troubled teens and cases influenced by childhood sexual abuse, neglect, or abandonment. How any man could yield to such behavior is a mystery to me. Nothing troubles me more than seeing a child in distress because of the behavior of an irresponsible adult. At the top of my despicable list will always be unremorseful repeat sexual offenders, deadbeat dads (or moms), and sociopathic crack users. Such behaviors are inexcusable and unacceptable, and in my opinion not part of what is considered mental illness because of such a strong voluntary component to the behavior.

My age has started to show relative to the evolution of thought content and closer consideration of certain views in general I've become accustomed to over the past twenty years. Somehow, my competitive nature has been tamed as the intellectual side has grown more mature. Yet, I still suck at the practical side of the basics of life such as maintaining relationships, house keeping, paying bills on time, etc... It often amazes me how difficult it can be to practice simple principles of living that I often find myself helping others become more enlightened to. My unspoken disclaimer for many patients is to do as I say, not as I do.

It is important as a psychotherapist to maintain the objectivity by keeping your personal life out of sessions. On occasion, with the appropriate patient, I will interject a little humility from my own experiences just to remind them that we all face trials and tribulations in this life and no one is exempt. The only mysteries are when such events shall arrive and what the duration will be. No amount of money, fame, or worldly success can circumvent this fact but such can on occasion temporarily distract ones attention from reality. With age, those of us who choose to accept the accompanying wisdom acquired eventually learn that it is the pain and losses we face in life that deepen the value and meaning of the experience.

There is no proof of what exists on the other side but I believe there must be something so profoundly great that its concealment is required to assure we maintain enough patience to complete our earthly missions. I'm convinced of this through the reality of the existence of eternity and infinity which too require faith because of the finite nature of the human mind. The imaginative potential of the human mind is contained within eternity and infinity making all things indeed possible. Even the most intelligent scientists have begun to accept that a common point exists between the unknown or spiritual world and the discipline of science. For every known fact there are a billion unknowns. Therefore, all facts are relative.

I realize that this discussion could go on indefinitely and still there would be those who would refer to this form of thought as crazy or senseless to them. All are entitled to select their own versions of reality and if I start to care what the doubters and skeptics think then I believe it is at that point I myself do become crazy. My conclusion is that in this life it is really the cumulative effect of our actions and behaviors that have the most value and importance, ultimately. Those actions and behaviors are synonymous with an epitaph that can become immortal for the duration of humanity on earth.
