I dreamt last night that I invented a way to project human life from people, like an avatar, using a wii remote

As soon as they fell asleep their bodies became controllable using my wii remote technology

No I do not know what it means

Maybe it is because I saw moon knight recently plus have not played video games all year?

I guess I'll just keep on waiting for episode 2 in search for personal awakening

UPDATE: Episode 2 did not provide the answers 😒 an instead brought more questions

Control is important, this I see

Life is too hard and short to make it about choosing to wash clothes and dishes by hand or by machine in any moment–Why I am from the USA

I say this to all who have not as to those that have

Some things have got to be SOL

Believe me when I say that education and CULTURE are factors blocking this and causing much trauma, discomfort and dissatisfaction

You can choose to walk forever, or you can learn the game when a busstop or a car dealership comes near you

To any without to pay 25 cents for a BUS FROM HELL (Combi) in Peru or unable to negotiate whatsoever for around that price, I pray that you will earn and find and obtain satisfaction and peace and faith, hope and love

I like soup but hate to make it and do not consider it to be a main course

Thank you, GB

Decided this is more of a Tumblr than a tweet:

***My take: Peru vs Brazil was basically Neymar vs a tireless, amazing, Peruvian team w/o enough direction

Frankly soccer as an organization in Brazil is just leagues over what it is in Peru despite Peru's players appearing to be the most solid hard working footballers on the field***

And this was my thought while biking home today after preparing blue box macaroni and cheese with choclo(Peruvian white corn) and fried chicken filets with tomatoes for my wife and I for lunch: I think the reason why people drive the way they do/walk the way they do/bike the way they predominantly do in Peru is because there may be an ongoing winning philosophy here that means that most all inhabitants actually actually do not want anything to make any sense on the road in regards to direction and will get in fact angry if one would intend to disprove the truth of directionlessness while on the road. Rather, all roads lead to Rome. You do not have to turn right in front of someone you pass or left depending on a rule that might otherwise/elsewhere be considered culturally uniquely acceptable–here in Lima have it your way in the moment and keep on strollin

Get up, out and in any busi... just don't show up too late to eat!

Historically members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints were not law-abiding citizens–why? As a voting block we were so homogenous that we had to be assigned political parties by our leaders later on

This homogeneity was of great concern to those of different political leanings in similar voting districts and states

If the Latter-day Saints followed the law in Missouri they'd have allowed themselves to be "exterminated"

My ancestors fled the United States of America to Mexico as political and real-life refugees to where Utah stands today.

They began construction of a temple to their God there that they buried when the United States would become the new owner of the land on which its sandstone foundation was built.

Again, they found themselves stuck in the United States–a country that had privileged their extermination order. Partly in fear and at the command of their both governor and religious leader, Brigham Young, who would be replaced as governor by the United States shortly there after, they buried the temple's finished foundation upon learning "the Americans [were] coming".

Once things cooled down and they resumed construction on their sacred edifice to whom they worshiped as their God, Omnipotent Creator, and Eternal Father, they discovered that the foundation they had built over several years had cracked as a result of its hasty cacher; it was redone and this time with local granite.

Astonishing it should be then, that Utah has become proud to be a patriotic American state defying their own expectations after initially being forced back political into the same country that it had litterally run for its lives from.

Of course Latter-day Saints were not the only ones who settled in Utah, but to not recognize their exploration and industrializing of the area would be to forgoe reason regarding the territory history.

The Native Americans settled in the valley have their important tale in regards to the United States and Mexico as a minority among other more key groups in the region

I haved noticed that given the opportunity the Latter-day Saints as a minority group love to be included and to make any system work better, harder, faster, stronger.

Pres Uchtdorf asked us today in the church's general conference to be "creative" disciples "to replace our sandstone foundations with granite that is perhaps already ready to be used"–I love that

Woke up this morning from a dream where I was enlisted as a civilian investigator brute squad alongside an established private eye and his well armed team to visit the crime scene, which turned out to be a deadly car accident--as we were interviewing and investigating at the scene of the crime alongside a highway in a underpass/mall like area with people scattered about, out of the blue a man tapped me on my shoulder who introduced himself as Andrew Yang. I told him I knew who he was, and then I realized he was talking to me, because of my shirt. He had to go, but told me where he lived and offered to get lunch and chat again at which point a famous woman musician and some other insta-famous women were dancing beside me. I suddenly became aware that many were looking at me as they danced and there was nearly a circle around me--Andrew Yang was just chilling on the couch with some other people

PLOUGH

I woke up--what a night #PrivatePartyInMyDreams

Then later this morning I was inspired by Andrew Yang's CNN Interview I saw on Twitter, and I reposted it

Separation of Church and State and Laïcité

Here's an important distinction to recognize:

American separation of church and state vs French laïcité

Religion holds a different place in society/history in America than it does in France or even Europe.

Religion in America is/has held a place as the single strongest motivator for individuals and organizations to generously donate time, resources, money, and mind to do good.

In France the Divine Right of Kings and the rich clergy worked together to keep the poor poor, the poor at war, and the rich livin' lavish'.

With this distinction in mind, it should be stated as well, that money is a motivator. Religion which motivates people to lose their money in the service of others--not in order for religious officials to be served selfishly at other's expense, is good for society/the world, as in religious terms: the "fruits" are good.

It is particularly amazing how one of Christ's most poignant declarations on religion and government occured at the question of whether one should pay tribute to Cæsar [i.e. taxes to their government]. He stated imperatively, "Render unto Cæsar the things that are Cæsar’s, and to God the things that are God’s."

That command was not one which enables those who would shirk their responsibility as citizens of a nation, organization, empire, state, etc., but rather, as He always offers, an invitation to, with a keen and discerning mind, be both good citizens and disciples. In this moment Christ layed out the relationship that we have with our country (whereever that may be is applicable) and our God (whoever that may be would apply--in my perspective) in perfect distinction, motivating us (as He always does) to go forward and be better individuals.

The French concept of laïcité is further reaching than the American ideas of separation of church and state--and with good reason. Laïcité is about protecting individuals from negative religious government atrocities. Thus, the French Republic (and the people) are being protected from religion taking away their liberties and usurping political power for gain--causing poverty, bloodshed, and evil. America's democratic republic initially called for separation of church and state in order to preserve its pilgrim's right to worship as they please--this, to protect religion from the government.

There is a pendulum to these policies that must forever swing to and fro in both France and the U.S.A. in order to ensure that religion or government, either party does not usurp freedom. These different law systems both serve to protect their citizen adherents and all the world that eyes them from potential evil in both government and religion. We need this pendulum to never cease its work. God bless the government of U.S.A.! Vive la France et la République!
