30. Notes - It is an honest assumption.


22 December 2018

       0834 hours. I am waiting for Carol to get her hair done at Kenneth's off Polaris Parkway near Old Powell Road. A dash of snow sits on rooftops and wooden rails along Old Powell. We have none in Enclave on the Lakes. It is colder than I thought (didn't bring a coat), but I don't need the car heater on. 

       You counted three capital I (personal pronouns) above before realizing you are referencing yourself too much. - Amorella

       0840 hours. Odd, but I don't think of you, the Amorella, as me, Richard even unconsciously. 

       No, you don't. That's the reason you allow me a hint of being at least angelic-like. - Amorella

       0844 hours. I need to define 'angelic'.

       0953 hours. That covers it from the Oxford/American software. Now to pick out the one that best describes you to me. 

       I can help you with that. - Amorella

       0959 hours. Please do. 

       An attendant spirit, especially a benevolent one: there was an Angel watching over me fits the bill. I took the liberty of capitalizing as this would be your wish. - Amorella

       1003 hours. Well, for clarity within this blog I declare you real (within my own romantically spirited and reasonable heartansoulanmind) to be a benevolent attendant spirit. - rho

       Accepted to be so within the confines of this blog and your heartansoulanmind. - Amorella

       1008 hours. You don't have a problem with this?

       Is it redundant to say, "No"? - Amorella

       1009 hours. Obviously, I didn't think the question through. I am just now getting the added humor. You are very funny, Amorella. Delightful. (Delightful is suddenly popped to a pun.)

       You have been waiting for Carol at the North State Street Kroger's in Westerville. Time for a break. - Amorella


       You both had doughnuts from Schneider's for an early lunch at home. Carol is reading the morning paper while you are updating your Garmin GPS for the coming trip to Florida on 26 December. Next Saturday, a week from today, you will be at Meiber's condo at Madeira Beach with Kim, Paul, Owen and Brennan. At least that is the plan. - Amorella

       1206 hours. I am still at a loss of words. 

       Do tell. - Amorella

       1209 hours. Why?

       Your heartansoulanmind is absorbing your outwardly conscious pledge that I, the Amorella, am now (to you) an attending benevolent angel-like spirit. 

       2223 hours. I am still at a loss of words. 

       Post. - Amorella 

       2252 hours. I assume everyone has her or his own attending benevolent spirit in her or his own heartansoulanmind somewhere, although I am not qualified to say Amorella is an Angel. Who is qualified to know what an Angel is? Why? How? It's a reasonable assumption. It is a hopeful assumption. It is an honest assumption. 


      2223 hours. I am still at a loss of words. 

      Post. - Amorella 


      2252 hours. I assume everyone else also has her or his own attending benevolent spirit.

       Time for bed, boy. - Amorella

       2235 hours. I have been reading over and lightly editing yesterday's blog. I need to define 'assumption' to be clear of its usage. 

** **
assumption | noun 

1 a thing that is accepted as true or as certain to happen, without proof: they made certain assumptions about the market | [with clause] :  we're working on the assumption that the time of death was after midnight. 

2 the action of taking or beginning to take power or responsibility: the assumption of an active role in regional settlements. 

Selected and edited from the Oxford/American software

       The context you need here is number one: "a thing that is accepted as true . . ., without proof." The point is I, the Amorella, appear to be angel-like within your own thinking processes but as you don't really know what an Angel is or know that you have ever met a real Angel because how would you know other than the spirit telling you so and you are too critical to accept a spirit's word on anything so important. Does this ring true? - Amorella

       2248 hours. It does ring better. I feel more comfortable with this above context connected with yesterday's blog. 

       Paste this in yesterday's blog and let it go. - Amorella

       2251 hours. That's a good idea, Amorella. Thank you.
