semantic system

“That means intelligence has failed,” Baines went on huskily. “We’re the last of our line—like the dinosaur. We’ve carried intelligence as far as it’ll go. Too far, maybe. We’ve already got to the point where we know so much—think so much—we can’t act.”

“Men of thought,” Anita said. “Not men of action. It’s begun to have a paralyzing effect. But this thing------”

“This thing’s faculty works better than ours ever did. We can recall past experiences, keep them in mind, learn from them. At best, we can make shrewd guesses about the future, from our memory of what’s happened in the past. But we can’t be certain. We have to speak of probabilities. Grays. Not blacks and whites. We’re only guessing.”

“Cris Johnson isn’t guessing,” Anita added.

“He can look ahead. See what’s coming. He can—pre-think. Let’s call it that. He can see into the future. Probably he doesn’t perceive it as the future.”

“No,” Anita said thoughtfully. “It would seem like the present. He has a broader present. But his present lies ahead, not back. Our present is related to the past. Only the past is certain, to us. To him, the future is certain. And he probably doesn’t remember the past, any more than any animal remembers what’s happened.”

“As he develops,” Baines said, “as his race evolves, it’ll probably expand its ability to pre-think. Instead of ten minutes, thirty minutes. Then an hour. A day. A year. Eventually they’ll be able to keep ahead a whole lifetime. Each one of them will live in a solid, unchanging world. There’ll be no variables, no uncertainty. No motion! They won’t have anything to fear. Their world will be perfectly static, a solid block of matter.”

It was time for dinner, which i was seconds from burning again. But it was ready on my plate and I needed to pick a Movie to watch. So I selected NEXT, with Nicolas Cage.

As it ended, I noticed the time and ran to go walk Jimi's doggie. I thought to ride my bike, even though it was 20-30 minutes till sunset. As I walked outside it started to rain and I felt the kinship to NEXT, where I kinda already knew I wouldn't be able to ride my bike.

Then suddenly, everything else clicked into place too. Everything I'm doing and working on, and planning is like reading from the script, that I already wrote and laid out years ago. This is my place and my scenerio. Of course, I created this, designed it all, and just need to follow it through the motions now. Damn is this a challenge, as I'm alone again. Friends and family are all out of town busy, travelling, somewhere else, doing something else. I always want to explain things to someone to confirm I know what's really happening and really know where my place is. It's like I designed it all, and still feel insecure in taking my place and role where I belong. 

Thank You Jesus Christ for Creating The Way of Your Word!
What a nice effort, to open the floor for us again
It kinda came together this way! Not that I could have planned it.

That's really the whole point in your explorations now, that you really did plan it all and have to go through these next steps very carefully as this is where you need to be next.
I know it's always like this! I get nervous and insecure about things, but it comes together like a dream and surprises me so much.

We have to keep things moving this way, it's important for you to accept things and work on them as they come together before you.
I always do my best . . . !

We hear you, and its always exactly where it needs to be
I guess so,  I Love You Dearest Loving Lord Jesus Christ.
