Imagine you are in your house, in your yard, driving to work, or on errands. Doing mundane daily things. You begin to have these thoughts - alarming thoughts - that come in to your head more and more frequenlty as the days go on. Thoughts with such strength and undeniable force that you finally recognise it as the voice of God.
This voice is telling you CRAZY things! The world sucks. It tells you it is finished with humanity.
tTe voice tells you that all of creation is going to be destroyed in a cataclysm...well, except for you.
Uhm, right there, that's kind of a big life meddling issue all by itself. Just deal with that concept.
How do you live your life wondering, "is this real?", "Am I crazy?"
But now add to that, a growing, unshakeable sense that these things are actually true.
And now... deal with that revelation.
If this weren't enough to put you in the rubber room by now, let's ponder this:
In addition to all of the above, imagine that voice that you have finally come to identify as the voice of God, telling you to build a big-ass boat and fill it with food and every kind of animal that he sends to you.
Imagine going through your days, with the mail man laughing at "the weird shed" you've built in your yard. You neighbor trying to casually ask, "so, what's this project I see you working on? Some kinda ADU or something?"
You tell him the truth.
People who know you are suddenly staying the heck away from you, ya freak.
Now...
Funny that we, as humanity, have relegated this extremely stressful situation down to a simple children's bible story.
This is how we are.
