Perpetual Motion

Wind chimes got me thinking. When I was growing up there was a lot of talk about people trying to invent perpetual motion machines. Maybe they have, now. Or maybe it is impossible, like trying to stop this oil spill. (The wisdom of men is foolishness to God.)

Maybe only God can create perpetual motion. He breathes the universe out...when will he breathe it back in?

It must be very amusing, or at least interesting, to watch all the drama unfolding on these worlds that he created. Is he detached, or intimately involved? (I used to think he watched us like an experiment, like ants.)

One holy book says he sees every sparrow that falls to the ground. Another holy book says there is an angel for every blade of grass.

There is a concept called something like Electro-magnetic-resonance. It says once two particles of matter have interacted, they will continue to be drawn together, perpetually.

These are just my thoughts right now - they have not coalesced into any sort of wise conclusion. But I do know these musings have something to do with our own acts of creation...

I only hope God isn't too disappointed about what mankind has done to His creation!

I think we are making the earth sick...and we are making creation cry...so we must be making God sad, and ourselves, too...as we are made of earth

Because we fail to go with nature and always awant to tame it.
