so it's sunday afternoon now.... normally i finish my work week at 3am saturday morning (friday night) and am asleep around 5am saturday morning, only to wake 2 hours later when my partner gets ready to leave for work, then i take our son to the gym, or have been, rather, and doing about 8 km of running in various batches, and maybe some weights too, while the boy is in the gym's childcare
so after only 2 hours or so sleep, 3 at best, am ideally suited, really to sleep well on saturday nights....



anyway, last night, i fell asleep early, around same time as my kid, then woke up around 530am with a strong memory of a particular dream, i thought i should write it down but then just went to sleep again, woke up again a few hours later, around 730am, and it turned out slept around 11 hours like this which was extremely refreshing, even after going to church this morning (sunday morning) -- the memory of the dream is extremely strong
it was a very simple dream, i was meeting with the Palestinian leader, Mahmoud Abbas, the current president or prime minister, and also two former Jewish leaders in Palestine: Rabin and Peres
now it's quite curious, i can't tell you HOW exactly i knew the three gentlemen in my dream were these fellows, but just that i know it to be a fact, inwardly..........however, i do not know much about these men, researching them, it turns out the fellow in the middle was assassinated in 1995 - Rabin..... a Jewish fellow Israel's '5th prime minister', married a very, very long time to a woman named Leah who, curiously, died the same year as him, which says there must be an interesting story there as i do not supposed she was assassinated with him, will have to check now.... actually she died in 2000, my mistake, interestingly, she was born in Germany (East Prussia) but the town where she was born is now considered part of Russia - Konigsberg, now Kaliningrad..... that's an interesting history for that place........
this guy is someone i studied as a 17 year old, but not someone i even remember anything about, including what he looks like, how i know it was these three characters, in my dream, again i can't explain to you.......... Peres was a former 'President' of Israel, he's 91 years old and common sense and also my gut, possibly, tells me he will die of old age very soon
the other fellow, i suppose, replaced mister Arafat, who, if memory serves me correctly, famously appeared at the American paid for forum in the State of New York, not in the capital city of said State, Albany, but the little village of New York City, at the so-called "United Nations".... as we say, Arafat, if memory serves correctly, once famously appeared at the "United Nations" famously holding aloft a sprig of some plant, representing Peace, while doing so in such a way to show off a gun in his belt, let's search google for that image right now..... well can't find any, maybe it never happened like that and just my father said that happened and i ended up believing it, whatever, if i'm wrong i'm sure Glen Beck will set the record straight at some point
curiously, the Palestinian leader shared the same birthday as my father, March 26, i don't know much about him at all, but i've always had the impression that he was a man of honor, in his way, unlike Arafat, to some extent, who i think was somewhat of a rascal
most Jews in Israel, would very likely disagree with my opinion of Abbas which they might consider naive........ but i found Jews in Jerusalem, during my only visit there in 2002, to be intolerant and bigoted towards Arab Moslems, e.g., complaining about the sounds their prayer singing was making, which i did not find annoying at all
ANYWAY, in my dream, Abbas greeted my first, he was as friendly as the other two... we were meeting somewhere in the flesh in Palestine somewhere there, indoors, then one of the Jewish guys, not sure if the one that is 'dead' or the other one, was saying that they have a fast car, like a BMW, maybe, and that it could do (a whopping) 400 kilometres an hour on their roads (autobahns i guess) in Israel
now i don't know that Israel/Palestine has any autobahns (although they certainly should!) and i doubt a car for consumer use can even do 400kph and now i'm curious to know the top speed of a formula one racing car.......actually it's around 370kph, so it IS conceivable that a Jewish political leader COULD in fact do 400kph on a Jewish Autobahn, but i suppose they would have to build one first and then find a leader that can drive formula one cars at that speed (and is willing to!)
most cars at that speed would in fact become air-borne, but, as you know, formula one cars have wings at the back to keep them on the ground, their speed is astonishing, 370kpm is insanely quick, probably many airplanes take off at this speed
anyway, that's all that happened in the dream: we met, talked about the car, i recalled the three men's identities upon waking, even after attending church and what not, many hours later, and not even thinking about these three particular men at all in my regular life
moving on, church today, Tim, who i was bitching about earlier in this blog for joking about me endangering my kid's life only to win at soccer (actually i was playing goalie while holding my kid as i was keen to play and my kid wouldn't be left alone)
anyway Tim was preaching about something or other (the book of Proverbs [of Solomon] in the old testament, a Jewish book)....... it got me thinking about Jesus' parable about the shrewd servant.... the shrewd servant learns his boss will fire him and becomes worried as he doesn't know how to make money any other way than taking care of his boss' business......... so he calls in people that owe money to his boss and says: you owe the boss 1000 coins for this olive oil, say you owe him 800 coins (i'm paraphrasing), he does something similar with another debtor that owes for wheat
in this way the shrew manager, despite being dishonest, is currying favor with his boss' debtors, this could earn him some 'guan-xi' as the chinese say, that is, the boss' servants will 'owe him one'; this could open a door to opportunity to him in a soon to come, uncertain, future........ in fact, it wouldn't solve all of his problems, but merely buy him some time while he figures out his next steps, ie., learn a trade
the boss learn of this and remarks that the dishonest manager is wise to do so........ some Jewish sect at the time, in Israel (Israel is a VERY old expression, which is why we've put the terms '5th prime minister' and 'president' above, between little quotation marks, like the twin towers of afore-mentioned little city) --- this reminds us, in fact, of the famous letters around said quotation marks that occurred around 13 years ago now: "Death to Israel" read the letters.... again, one for Glen Beck.......
anyway, this is a very interesting parable, some greedy money-minded sect, the Pharisees or suchlike, probably all Jews, hear the parable and 'sneer' at Jesus, according to Gospel, as they say......... why would they sneer? a man that steals money from his boss! and is accounted wise by the boss? a dishonest man, stealing money! Jesus, according to the Gospel, disses his sneerers, saying they are too money-minded, and what is good for them is detestable to God and what God loves, they despise.... this is very interesting..... i find this to be very evident with television and many sports, take Rugby League here in Australia: the players are all total slutbags, often drunks too..... this is clearly abominable to God, yet to many of the masses here in Australia, Rugby League and these 'players' are great!
this story goes on to something else which basically says, obey Moses or you will be screwed in the future badly
this is possibly the most interesting parable by Jesus in the Gospels, in my opinion.... well today is a very famous day in the hispanic world: el doce de octubre, the 12th of October.......... the day we celebrate the Italian Christopher Colombus discovering America ---- a day for anyone with blood, native to the Americas, from before that date, like the Mexican Indians, Paraguayans, redskins, and the singer from red hot chilli peppers to bitch and moan about the Spanish conquistadores and what murderous sons of bitches they were..... in Spain it's considered the National Day and it's a similar date to Jesus' real actual birthday which was early October..... these are Libra dates, which means a type seeking balance, however, despite being Spain's national day, it's not Spain's real birthday, which i'm certain is a Piscean birthday and must therefore fall in March before the spring equinox or late february............the Iberian peninsula has been inhabited at least 40,000 years, as per cave paintings, so it's difficult to know when Spanish culture really was born there, historically -- and when to consider Portugal and Spain separately (as they are really a kind of blending)
definitely looking forward to catching Pitt's 'Fury' movie, even if it is abominable to God..... and hoping Jolie will make a Where's Wally movie, maybe with some Jews with rings that have whistles, like in the Simpsons
returning to the Pharisees sneering, the gall of this punk hippy bitch! that disrespects all of our blessed Jewish holidays and traditions and markets himself a man of God and even the very Son of God in the flesh! to preach about a boss complementing his servant for STEALING from him! "i'll a pop a cap in His arse! that punk chinny wagging bitch [insert beeping sound on top of profanity]"

in the Parable, which can be understood in various ways, the Boss could be taken to mean God, and the servant or manager can be taken to mean a man....... if the Pharisees see it as abominable to steal from God; God, in the parable, does not reckon it so, but considers it wise
