Welcome!

I, God, welcome you to my blog!

The good book says only God is good, so it seems to me somebody needs to step up.

I hope you enjoy reading this, the Jesse Journal, as much as I have enjoyed writing it. Please feel free to subscribe, write me an email, request that I write about any particular topic you may want my perspective on, send a prayer, click on the charity link, or donate money to my bicycle fund! Have fun!

Your pal, Jess
I'm a straight, virgo/boar INTJ (age 53) who enjoys books, getting out into nature, music, and daily exercise.

(my email is JesseGod@live.com)

F.Y.I. There are about 2200 posts..

Here's a quote from Fyodor Dostoevsky to start things off right: Love the animals, love the plants, love everything. If you love everything, you will perceive the divine mystery in things. Once you perceive it, you will begin to comprehend it better every day. And you will come at last to love the whole world with an all-embracing love.

Value

money and ideas

The US may be headed for a double-dip recession, or even a depression, but I found this one quote encouraging:

I'm Single, Ladies

Don't be sad

Let me know if I'm your kinda guy.
I'm a Virgo, which they say is most compatible with Taurus, Capricorn, or another Virgo. (or maybe Cancer or Scorpio, says somewhere else).

I'm also a Boar, which they say should marry a Rabbit or a Sheep.

A Rabbit (I have the Chinese restaurant place mat) is born in '63, '75, or '87.
A Sheep is born in '67, '79, or '91.

(I'll be moving from Roseville and living in the Bay Area soon)

Life, The Universe, and Everything

What is the meaning of it all?

Life is good! as they say.
Being and Existence are good.

Reality is God ("reality is all the god there ever is" -Avatar Adi Da Samraj)

In a nutshell
Nature, Reality, Life, The Universe, It All, and Everything
The Total, The Entirety, The Sum
The Whole Enchilada

is GOD

...and the bible says vanity of vanities, All is Vanity

Closest Star and Galaxy

Space is the Place

-The closest star is Proxima Centauri, at only 4.2 light years away.
-The closest galaxy is the Canis Major Dwarf galaxy, at 25,000 light years.
and
-The closest spiral galaxy is Andromeda, at 2.5 million light years.

Andromeda has a few hundred billion stars, like our Milky Way.
Canis Major, which is irregularly shaped, has around 1 billion stars.

Get this:
One light year is about 5.88 trillion miles.

So, by my calculations, Proxima Centauri is 24.696 trillion miles.
(24,696,000,000,000)
Canis Major Dwarf galaxy is 25k x 5.88t, or 147,000 trillion miles.
(147,000,000,000,000,000)
And Andromeda is about 15 million trillion miles., which is:
(14,700,000,000,000,000,000 miles away)

Some TED astronomy talk, I remember, said, from the most average location in the (known) universe, the sky is black, meaning you can't see any stars, because they're so far away. Wow.

Andromeda, from earth, is a fuzzy patch of light, when seen through a pair of quality binoculars.

I sure hope future space travel has some fun things to do inflight, for the folks on board.

"there's a place in the stars...for a new ghetto" -Oingo Boingo

-The diameter of the known universe is 93 billion light years.
That's546.84 billion trillion miles.
That's
546,840,000,000,000,000,000,000 miles.

"to infinity and beyond" -Buzz Lightyear

Moving to Berkeley

I hope to move in to an apartment there next month

so email me, jessteshara@yahoo.com, if you are (or know of) a roommate with a room available in Berkeley, Ca

Did you know there are also Berkeleys in Denver, Illinois, and Missouri?
But I'm referring to the Bay Area's Berkeley, California, home of the Cal Bears.
