Why God LaughsA Chapter by Sri Gawn Tu FahrSelected passages from my New book,Love's True Home
I was feeling so low when I woke up this morning that I had to climb an 18 ft extension ladder to get up to the basement, but I’m alright now.
Yesterday I was sitting at a local cafe slurping back a cup of coffee when a stranger approached my table and said “Can I join you?” I quickly scanned my body top to bottom and replied “Why, am I coming apart? As I stood at the edge of the precipice my nose began to tingle, emitting fluorescent sparks. Suddenly I left my body and as I hovered above the time track I witnessed past, present and future events simultaneously. All of creation lay before me; everything made scents to my holy proboscis, a true ‘beak-on’ of truth. Henceforth I became known as ‘Nostrildamus,’ He who nose all. I knew something was slightly awry this morning when I woke up and found myself singing ‘You Make Me Feel Like a Natural Woman.’ I welcome your opinion as long as you don't make any suggestions. Saints are not immune to the wide spectrum of human ailments. I am presently writing a short story about a great soul, a pilgrim of peace, who suffered from frequent bouts of flatulence. He transformed this curse into a benefit by propelling himself across an entire country on a cloud of methane. It’s been quite a gas writing it. The working title is ‘Gandhi with the Wind.’ I am getting sick and tired of having to take responsibility for my own actions. Is anyone in the mood for taking on a little blame? Being hung up on the past is like looking over your shoulder and staring at your a*s. You can’t see where you’re going and no matter how long you stare at it, it’ll never be what it’s ‘cracked up’ to be. What a bummer eh? It is hilarious that some who profess to be able to predict the future and others who say that they can see into the past don’t even have a clue what’s going on right now. Life could be likened to a cow. It always seems greener on the ‘udder’ side and there’s an never-ending stream of bull to contend with. I can’t remember much of what he was talking about. I think it was advice on how to be a good listener. Human beings are living proof that God has an incredible sense of humor. What a shock it was to observe my gentle-natured vegetarian friend as he unleashed a flurry of violence today. I watched in horror as he poked the potatoes in the eyes, yanked the corn by the ears, squeezed a head of lettuce and tore the heart out of an artichoke. Holy horse plop! I just realized that I have spent my entire life getting to where I am right now! What a trip! I am sure there are many good reasons for reason but for some reason I just can’t come up with any right now. Am I being unreasonable? A recent survey suggests that pregnancy is a leading cause of childbirth. After studying polygamy for several years I came to the conclusion that there are too many sides to consider. © 2011 Sri Gawn Tu FahrReviews
