G-Pop knows that nearly everybody is acquainted with the process–going out to dinner.
First, arriving at the restaurant, having the greeter seat you. And then the server comes by and sets the whole evening in motion by asking the question, “Can I get your order?”
Of course, if you are a veteran of the cuisine, you know there is an order. First comes the drink, then the salad, entree, dessert, concluding with the check and tip. Candidly, the management doesn’t like it when you get it out of order. Matter of fact, you could be corrected.
Likewise, G-Pop has realized there is an order to this journey. Perhaps we should have learned it by now but there’s so much confusion–and there are too many people who want to get dessert before their salad. So we get confused.
Just as a restaurant visit is “drink, salad, entrée, dessert and then check,” in our time on Earth, we have to discover the correct order for: me, God, people, science and animals.
Simply placing one of these pieces in the wrong position can send us awry. And by awry, G-Pop means a bewilderment which settles into our souls because something doesn’t seem right.
What should come first? There are dangers.
If you start off with God you become too religious. That soon makes you intolerant of people and sometimes even grumpy about including science in the family at all.
Those who begin the order with science often find it necessary to negate a Creator, and over the years may grow weary with people, ending up giving the bulk of their charity to animal rights organizations.
Should we begin with people? That can be a real mouse trap–especially when people act like rats.
How about if we just negate the whole mess and dedicate our lives to animals? They may be cute but they are still beasts, because they bite–sometimes when you least expect it.
So just as a journey to your local bistro is an adventure requiring some basic understanding, being a quality human being certainly means you need to be able to answer the question, “Can I take your order?”
What is your order? G-Pop is curious.
When considering “me” (yourself), God, people, science (Mother Nature) and animals, what sequence works for you?
The choices you make and the order they’re in determine the abundance of your heart–and therefore control your speech and interaction with others.
G-Pop would love to hear from some of his children on this subject. Rather than rattling on about it this week, he’ll wait and see what people have to say.
So in closing, from G-Pop: Can I take your order, please?
