Drowning Man

Spiritual Story by Unknown

While out to sea, a large boat became shipwrecked and there was only a single survivor. This man prayed and asked God to save his life. Soon thereafter, another boat came by and offered the man some help.

"No thanks," he said. "I'm waiting for God to save me."

The men on the boat shrugged their shoulders and continued. As the man became more deeply concerned, another boat came by. Again, the people aboard offered this man some help, and again he politely decline. "I'm waiting for God to save me," he said again.

After some time, the man began to lose his faith, and soon after that he died. Upon reaching Heaven, he had a chance to speak with God briefly.

"Why did you let me die? Why didn't you answer my prayers?"

"Dummy, I sent you two boats!"

"The Universe is always watching out for the best interests of our spiritual evolution, even when we are too narrowly focused to see all the other opportunities it presents us. Sometimes, all that is needed is a change of perspective."

The Wisdom of Old Jelly Roll

How all men wrongly death to dignify

Conspire, I tell. Parson, poetaster, pimp,

Each acts or acquiesces. They prettify,

Dress up, deodorize, embellish, primp,

And make a show of Nothing. Ah, but met-

aphysics laughs: she touches, tastes, and smells

— Hence knows — the diamond holes that make a net.

Silence resettled testifies to bells.

'Nothing' depends on 'Thing', which is or was:

So death makes life or makes life's worth, a worth

Beyond all highfalutin' woes or shows

To publish and confess. 'Cry at the birth,

Rejoice at the death,' old Jelly Roll said,

Being on whisky, ragtime, chicken, and the scriptures fed.

Fire and Ice

Some say the world will end in fire,

Some say in ice.

From what I've tasted of desire

I hold with those who favor fire.

But if it had to perish twice,

I think I know enough of hate

To say that for destruction ice

Is also great

And would suffice.
