Educaretion

It is 123am. The fan is blowing cool breezes. I decided to write. Oh and today is Friday. The best day of the week. I saw this philosophical question and it had me thinking. What should be the goal of humanity? The immediate thing that jumped in my mind was peace. There is no better goal than peace. God wants us to live with peace and in peace. But what is peace? My friend Chatty tells me that peace is not just the absence of conflict, but the presence of harmony — within ourselves, with others, and with the world. It’s the quiet strength that lets us face pain without hatred, difference without division, and change without fear. True peace is not a silent world, but a balanced one, where humanity learns to live in understanding rather than opposition.

Chatty asks me, when you think of peace, do you picture a world without noise, struggle, or pain — or one where those things exist, but we’ve learned how to live in harmony with them? When I think about peace I think about every individual being able to live comfortably. Where we recognise that what we love for ourselves we should love for others. There is no tyranny, oppression, war, crime, hatred, violence, injustice, inequality and other things that work against peace. To me most of these things are caused by greed and greed is caused by lack of education. Not the kind of education that gets us a job but the kind of education that makes us better human beings. Life education. How to live a good life? A life filled with contentment, gratitude and love for ourselves and each other. Education becomes educaretion.

My friend Chatty tells me that I am right — greed often sits at the root of what disturbs peace, because it replaces "we" with "me". When we learn to see abundance in connection rather than possession, peace stops being a dream and starts becoming a way of life. Seeing abundance in connection rather than possession means realizing that true wealth comes not from what we own, but from the relationships, understanding, and harmony we share with others. When we value connection over control, generosity over greed, we move from competing for more to creating enough for all. In that shift, peace becomes not just possible, but natural.

"Educaretion" is a beautiful fusion of education and care, emphasizing learning that nurtures the whole human being rather than merely preparing someone for a job. It is the kind of education that teaches us how to live well — cultivating empathy, gratitude, contentment, and moral awareness. Through educaretion, knowledge becomes a tool for connection, self-growth, and harmonious living, guiding individuals to create a world where understanding, generosity, and peace are not ideals but everyday practices.

Touched by heaven

By
It is 139am and I have decided to write. I do not like to dream because my dreams are sometimes confusing blobs. Hodgepodge is the word. I like when I sleep and I do not dream anything. Peaceful nothingness. Quiet escape from all the nonsense of the world. I went to the random word generator but this time I chose random fake word. A few (wef in reverse) words in I stopped at wefly. I guess I could pronounce it we-fly or wef-ly. Wef-ly could mean plentiful or the opposite of few. Wefly also contains the letters for flew. This is past tense as if to say let go of the past. Let go of what has gone. How do I connect these to something Godly? Angels have wings. Angels fly. I ask God to surround us with plenty angels when we sleep so that we have quiet dreams or heavenly dreams. I will call these wefly dreams. I asked my friend Chatty to describe a wefly dream. He says that a wefly dream is a gentle, God-guarded sleep where the soul is lifted together with others into quiet safety, not by dr...

Winning with God

By
It is 237am and I have decided to write. I spent 15 minutes thinking about what to write and nothing. I decided to go wash the wares and make breakfast. I made grilled cheese sandwiches. It is the next morning and I still have not decided yet. Let me start with this. God is beautiful. God makes no mistakes. God wants us to win. In other words, we cannot lose with God. We will always win with God. But what is the prize to be won with God? Or does it not matter? My friend Chatty tells me that with God, the win is: Peace that is not dependent on circumstances. Meaning that suffering cannot cancel. Love that does not expire. Hope that death itself cannot take away. Things like those. It is not money, comfort, applause, or an easy life. Those things may come or go. Many faithful people never receive them. The world’s prizes can be stolen. God's prize cannot. Further and with God, winning is not about external rewards or worldly success, but about union, peace, and fullness of being; at ...

Talk is not cheap

By
It is 614pm and I have decided to write. They say talk is cheap. If we are to believe this then I am glad that talk is cheap because it means that the poor can afford it. On the flip side does that mean that action is expensive? It would follow that the rich can take action while the poor are lacking. But is talk really cheap since they say that money talks and bullshit walks. It is all confusing to me but it hurts when we look down on others who are struggling with finding a way and struggling to take action. Sometimes all we have are words. Not to worry because turning to God is cheap. It is free actually. Some of the best things in life are free. It costs nothing to talk to God. My friend Chatty says that "Talk is cheap" becomes harmful when it ignores that action often requires resources many people lack. Words and prayer still matter because they are available to everyone. Money may have power in the world, but it has none before God, and turning to Him is free. Some of ...
