I do not seek to be entertained. I am waiting for the end of this present evil age. I remember the words of the apostle James, "Come now, you rich, weep and howl for your miseries that are coming upon you! Your riches are corrupted, and your garments are moth-eaten. Your gold and silver are corroded, and their corrosion will be a witness against you and will eat your flesh like fire. You have heaped up treasure in the last days." James 5:1-3. I entertained myself with thoughts of being in Heaven when this world is destroyed by fire.

It is 2:32 PM Saturday afternoon in the flow of existence. I had a normal time at the Herrick Public Library used book store. I got at the library this morning around 10 o'clock AM. I mainly read while at the book nook a book titled, "God Is Love: A Biblical And Systematic Theology" by Gerald Bray. I got out of the book nook around 1:05 PM. I drove to the local Farmer's Market to get tomatoes and asparagus for my wife. There were tomatoes but no asparagus at the Farmer's Market.

At the library book nook I found two used books to ADD to my book collection. I bought these two used books today for my library-

"The Dante Club" a novel by Matthew Pearl

"Andrew Jackson: His Life and Times" by H. W. Brands (We already have two books by H. W. Brands in our library, "The First American: The Life and Times of Benjamin Franklin" and "The Age Of Gold: The California Gold Rush And The New American Dream".)

Well I have nothing else to report so I will close to drift through the day. What else is there to do during the last days of the American Empire.

It is 8:03 AM Saturday morning in the flow of time in the cosmos. This book title just came to my mind, "From The Closed World To The Infinite Universe" by Alexandre Koyre. I am down in the lower level looking at a book titled "Ancient Christian Doctrine" Volume 1 "We Believe in One God" Edited by Gerald L. Bray. This book came to my mind this morning as I was reading Bray's new book, "God Is Love: A Biblical And Systematic Theology".

This morning I volunteer at the Herrick Public Library used bookstore. The Herrick Public Library is only a five minute drive from where we live. We live in town and not out in the country.

It rained during the night so I am glad I mowed the lawn yesterday. It is suppose to get hot today and tomorrow.

Last night I went to bed around 11 o'clock PM and did not wake up till 5:58 AM. I got out of bed around 6:20 AM and made a pot of coffee. I messed with our main computer and then wrote in my paper diary. I often wonder if I will be able to write in my diary if I reach 89 years old. What would I write if I was to reach the age of 90 years old. Would I open each morning in my diary with the words "Existence is flowing into the Godhead". (maybe existence flows outside the Godhead and not inside it)

So the morning goes by. Carol should be home by 9 o'clock AM. I will close to drift.

I recommend this book written by Gerald Bray, "Biblical Interpretation: Past & Present" [A Comprehensive Textbook & Resource].

It is 8:17 PM Friday night in the flow of existence. Another day has come and gone like the wind. I do not remember much about this day. I mainly got the lower level of our house ready to move our queen size bed down there. We were going to buy a brand new double bed for the lower level. Right now there is a futon down in the lower level that I sleep on when I take afternoon naps. We decided to get ourselves a new bed and move our old bed down in the lower level. I had to move book shelves around today to make room for our bed. That took a lot of work! I almost killed myself. I am not use to working. After moving a ton of books I mowed our lawn and then cooked dinner. After Carol left for work this evening I mopped the kitchen floors. I am ready to go to bed.

Tomorrow I volunteer at the Herrick Public Library used bookstore from 10 AM till 1 PM. Existence keeps decaying on me.

Carol slept all afternoon today. She works the next four nights.

I mainly read today when not busy a used book titled, "Think Back on Us. . . A Contemporary Chronicle of the 1930's" by Malcolm Cowley.

I also wrote three pages in my paper diary today. It has been a normal day for me. I could write stuff about the Past, but it is a waste time to dwell on the Past. I am not the Past. Well I will close to drift. I plan to go to bed early tonight. Tomorrow will soon be here.

"Jesus answered, "Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Do not marvel that I said to you, 'You must be born again.' The wind blows where it wishes, and you hear the sound of it, but cannot tell where it comes from and where it goes. So is everyone who is born of the Spirit" John 3:5-8.

It is 8:58 AM Friday morning. It is 66 degrees this morning here by Lake Michigan. Yesterday it got up to 88 degrees. It is a good day for me to mow our lawn. Carol just left to have breakfast with a nurse friend. I have been wandering the house and listening to the music of the The Walkmen.

I got up this morning around 6:15 AM. I got up and made a pot of coffee and then messed with our main computer. The world is in a terrible mess! After reading music reviews and blogs I left the computer to write in my paper diary. After writing in my diary I read some more of the book "God Is Love: A Biblical And Systematic Theology" by Gerald Bray.

Yesterday we cleaned out the garage, which took all afternoon. During the evening hours I wandered the house, read, and listened to music. We went to bed early since we were both wasted from existence. There was no music.

Not much else to confess this morning. I remember the words of the apostle James, "Confess your trespasses to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much" James 5:16.

Well I suppose I will close to drift through existence.

This morning Carol and I drove out to a new county park that just opened this week by Lake Michigan. The new county park is called Olive Shores County Park. We had a nice time this morning at this new county park. On the way home from our walk we stopped at a thrift store to look at their used books. I found one used book to add to my book collection titled, "Think Back on Us. . . A Contemporary Chronicle of the 1930's" by Malcolm Cowley. I have two other books by Malcolm Cowley in my library. Well I will close to drift.

Last night we took Rudy for a walk at the Hawthorn Natural Pond Area. Rudy ate something at the park and had some kind of respiratory attack and we had to come home. Rudy seems to be alright this morning.

It is 7:12 AM Thursday morning. I am writing on our main computer. I got out of bed around 6:20 AM this morning. I got up because there was nothing else to do. I got up and made a pot of coffee. I next came to the main computer area to read music reviews and blogs. I have to stop now because my left leg is in pain. It looks like it is another sunny day. Existence keeps decaying. Carol asked me last night what I was going to do today. I answered her "Nothing". There is nothing. I am living the American Dream.
