Your love is too precious for me to push aside just when you need someone to accept it. As tired as I am, my dreams are always of you. All expressions of truth by the human mind is totally relative, mutable, and conditioned. Human thought is simply the expressions of de facto acceptations, significant according to that natural and subjective orientation of the human mind which is the sens commun (common meaning). The human mind has an extramental orientation toward objectively existent and intelligible reality. Human intelligence has being as its connatural object. In its attainment of being the human mind surpasses sense knowledge, goes beyond mere phenomena. The first principles of human reason—identity, contradiction, causality, and finality—are not mere subjective thought patterns; they are grounded in being. The human evaluation of the data of experience in virtue of such principles, then, has an ontological validity; the human mind is capable of assertions concerning the real that are objectively true and absolute.  Because in its attainment of being the mind goes beyond mere phenomena, the principles of philosophical inquiry have a transcendental validity. #RandolphHarris 1 of 5

Humans are able, consequently, to achieve true judgments, not only about the entitative structure of experienced reality, but also about the non-experienced but necessarily affirmed primary cause of the beings experience. The connaturally realistic orientation of human intelligence, therefore, provides the capacity for objectively valid metaphysical evaluations of reality and even for a true natural theology. The basic critical problem of the validity of human intelligence, is central issue in all Neo-Scholastic philosophers. One has to learn to manifest the human mind as a faculty of truth, not an amasser or coordinator of data. New technologies create new freedoms and new dependencies. The freedoms are more evident at first. The dependencies may never become evident, which makes them all the worse, because then it takes a crisis to discover them. If the system has not had time to mature a lot of checks and balances, crises of large complex systems can be nasty. #RandolphHarris 2 of 5

I have a more enthusiastic and mercurial mind and my love of the new and the strange is always being expressed. It seems logical to consider that the spirit is not extended or in space. Impenetrability and divisibility, not extension, constitute the essence of matter. For spirit, which is to say God’s activity, is present everywhere. Even space is more or less spiritual in nature, as, indeed, an attribute of God. Space is God’s sensorium. The strong propensity to find the workings of spirit throughout the natural World has induced me to take a rather credulous interest in such occult topics as ghostly apparitions and witchcraft and astrology. I have even been a docent at the history cemetery, which was rather peaceful, but the strangest things I noticed was some clear jelly like substance growing out of the grave, which my partner said was mold. And once while we were giving a tour and rang the bell, a drop of a dark substance fell on my face, probably berry juice. #RandolphHarris 3 of 5

Looking everywhere some something supernatural, but I have seen nothing out of the ordinary…well, nothing I can actually prove anyway. A few times I have noticed a few people who seem to travel far distances, in very short times, but then the same can be said about me, some say. However, there must be an eternal and self-existent being on the ground. Among the provable attributes of the self-existent being are unity, infinity, intelligence, freedom, and goodness. Human’s freedom is safeguarded from obliteration because space and time are properties of God and therefore real. We must rely on a great accumulation of probabilities to understand God’s purposes and activities in the World. There is injustice on Earth, but, broadly speaking, the natural outcome of virtue is happiness and of vice suffering. No natural fact can exclude the immortality of the soul and a just rectification of the balance in an afterlife. We all see things in God because the idea in our minds are the direct result of divine activity. #RandolphHarris 4 of 5

Most people have a moral sense, which is more a matter of taste and feeling than of intellectual insight, by means of which they respond to the beauties and deformities of human character. Individual happiness and fulfillment are best achieved by the establishment of proper balance between private and social impulses. If you are to become all God created you to be, you cannot let a hurt, a loss, a bad break, or disappointment cause you to not actively get involved in something. We must learn to live with our problems until such time as God delivers us from them. We must pray for grace to endure will work for our spiritual perfecting. They harm us only when we resist them or endure them unwillingly. God will not permit any trouble to come upon us, unless he has a specific plan by which great blessings can come out of the difficulty. The decision has always been yours, and it still it. You decide whether you want to continue this relation. You decide where you want to go from here. #RandolphHarris 5 of 5
