Sunday
Went to the capital. Oh, such a beautiful city that is. Went to the East Asian Museum, and loads of different tools, writings, sculptures and similar. I was rather amazed that they could create things made of glass before we could even master bronze. And now, what China is providing us with is cheap labour. So much that has gone to waste. An amazing history that we just did not take good enough care of. It was like watching this huge treasure that the world just forgot that we had, all the knowledge and development..
Watched Hairspray with my mom, a rather pretty musical and I laughed a lot. Not the best thing I've seen, but definitely worth it. Spent the night at a nice hotel, needed some time with Mamma. We might not really get along all the time, or we communicate in such different ways that we haven't really found the right means to succeed, and I sort of gave up on it.
I was thinking about the concept of God. When reading in Genesis, I got stuck on the part saying "Then God said, "Let us make man in our image, in our likeness, and let them rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the livestock, over all the earth, and over all the creatures that move along the ground."
In our image. I don't know how many that have interpreted that as a physical attribute. What if, it is just saying that we are made to the mental image of God, which would in turn mean that we have the same capability as God, and hence, we are God. It would maybe also explain why using 'us' instead of something in singular. What if it is referring to a collective mind, something that common for all of us, our own divinity. How many times have we heard that "The kingdom of God is within you"? What if it is just that simple, or maybe not simple but as easily accessible? God exists within, because you are divine and part of God.
That is where my thoughts have been lately, I don't expect you to agree but I hope my point is somewhat valid.
