A ramble about ideas.

I had something I was going to say, but one thing and anther and it never got written. And so got turned to dust with the rest that never make it out of me head. So many ideas laying in wait of there resurrection. One can only hope that they come back stronger the next time and get writing down. I wonder just where ideas come from? How the get into the heads of those that share the? Be they inventions, stories or discoveries, it all has to start someplace. There are some that think they have an easy answer to this question, but do they? Is the answer an answer at all.
There are two answers that I can think of just now. But I find each a bit lacking, but then perhaps that is how it should be. After all it is not for us to have all the answers is it?
Oh what are the answers you ask? (that would be the voice in my head of course.)
Well the first is that the ideas come from without. that is divine inspiration or guidance. Now this is what fells right to me. but there are still questions that I can not answer. Like how they get from the source to me? Or why not all make it into life? Why they fail? Some of this could be answered by the fact that it is human error. That is we lack the tools to use the idea right, that we are to week. We need to grow more before we can use the idea right. that can be supported by history. If you look you can see times where a new idea has been put forth and dismissed only to be adopted latter. (Now if this was for something other than a ramble I would need a example here. Say some stuff on Galileo, the movement of the planets guy. You know how he knew the earth was not the center but his pers were not ready to here him. but as it is a ramble I am not going to bother.) That brings up more questions. Why was the Idea offered before the people was ready? Why weren't they just made ready? Witch can then lead us to the whole free will vs pre-destination argument. And I am not going there today. So lets just say there are questions to which I have no satisfactory answers. Which goes with out saying I have yet to see one I can not find questions with. But such is life. We need questions so we will seek answers and learn more.
Which brings us to the second answer. That it is human intelligence and curiosity. (there was anther wording but I am to lazy to go hunt a dictionary just now.) Then the question is where do those things come from? Well they come from the fact that man looked at the world around him and felt compelled to make since of it. So began to do so by looking for answers. I imagine that it started with things like why it rained, why this plant grew there and not there. then it went to why they were and why the world was. From there we get the various myths of how the world came to be. (Now a bit a definition here. By myth I do not mean something that is necessary false. I mean something that cannot be proven true or false. So all creation thoughts, including evolution are included in this.) As time went on and more was learn this explanation grew more complex as the questions grew in scope. So that makes since. But why were the questions asked? Why could things not just be accepted? And why can a leaf lead to a story about hidden messages, or a odd shadow to a ghost story? Where dose creativity fit? My response would be from the Divine. but that just gets us back to the first answer. So that is not what I want here.
Back up then. Where does it come from? From man his self. That is what the answer said after all. But why is it there? Because that is how man is. (this is hard to right avoiding made or created. But that is because it is how I am. lol) How did man become that way? Because he is. Sorry but that dose not work. The answer can't be the question for that is no answer. but It is what we are left with. I just cant seem to get past the fact that there must have been something to start it. Yet why did it have to? Why this insistence that everything has a start and an end?

Well I should stop but I fear that there will be more in this vain to come. After all I feel the need to explain why I stuck to using the Divine rather then the more tradition God. and that will lead me back to the original idea. that all tradions share. but that is for latter as I should be getting out of here.

So with that I will say.

GOOD NIGHT AND GOOD DREAMS.
IMAGINARY READER.
I tried it with out the imaginary and it just did not fell right. Yes I know you are real, but some things are just a habit. Nothing is ment by it, it is just how I like to close. Silly as it is since I know you read this. And like last time go get something for that head ach. I think it has been far to long since I have had to right a phil. paper. The ideas are attacking me.

books. longish, and confusing.

Well got that book done, but it took some time. I am glad I read it, but well it will take some time. It was so hard to get into. It was hard to relate to characters who took it for granted that others could and did own a part of them. Let me explain a bit more. The main in this book is a man who had himself frozen sometime around now. it dose not give a date. But it feels like it would be around now. Anyway he is a billionaire type and depend a bundle developing then hiding a self powering cryogenic unit. Then bought a played out mine and used it as his death/ freeze site. Years latter he is found and woken up. Soisity has suffered what sounds like a complete economic collapse brought about by V. R. and a few wars, some involving small nukes. And recovered from it in a odd way. People are broking in to stocks at birth, so many thousands of shares, I don't remember how many. Anyway right away the government gets 5% of them. It can not, by law, take more or less. Parents get 20% then the rest gets sold to pay for education and stuff, unless you are wealthy. Up to a certain %, which at the time of the book is at 25%. If you do not have 70% you are pretty much controlled by your share holders. though the more you own of you them more say you have.
In many cases that was a majority of them. The large number of there sosity spent most of there life just trying to get a marjorty in them selves and even if they got it there was no garinty that they would not lose it. They could be forced to sell it for economic reasons, or sued for it in courts. And they just accepted it, by in large. They thought it was the right way to do things that there civilization was better than any that had come before. Now given there was no homeless, and it looks like everyone had good medcale care. So it that way it was better. But to acepect being owned! It was a strange book. I am sure there is more to it than what I got from it. It is just that type of book.
After that I had a nice light read though a different time tripping book, Found. Hard to explain with out given some away. Some guys from the furtcher take kids from the past to there time to be adopted, turning them, the kids, into baby as they go back. One of there shipments gets lost in our time and can not be found for thirteen years. So those babys grow up knowing nothing tell one day things start coming out. It was defiantly writing for younger kids, and not as good as some of the writers other books. But I will be reading the next once it hits pb.
Up next is Gone., A book in which all adults vanish. It sounds like it will be good, and it is a new to me write. Anther plus. but I also get a kick out of the names. they are each first books of a set. Not that that matters.
Well I have blathered on long enough to have driven anyone insane. Not that it borths me. What was I. Oh thats right. Back to the point. Man I really should edit this more. There I go again.
It is decidedly time I say
Good Night and Good Dreams,
