Today is my grandson’s 2 month birthday, and also the date he was DUE to be born. He’s doing so well, it is a blessing.

Sunrise, sunset.

My mom passed on yesterday, surrounded by family looking at old photos and reminiscing. It was peaceful and beautiful, welcome yet sad.

I posted some photos on Twitter.

And the earth was without form and void (tohubohu)and darkness was upon the face of the deep and God moved upon the face of the waters. Genesis 1:2

Verse one says God created the heavens and the earth and they became tohubohu, why? He obviously did not create them in vain waste, they became that way. How?

Here’s one simplified explanation (think Big Bang Theory) -

“Tohu refers to the initial state of utter formlessness. Bohu is an intermediary state where the four fundamental properties have been established (Nachmanides). These are fire, air, water and earth.

These four are not to be understood as materials, but as potential properties of the materials that will come to be.

In terms of quantum mechanics they are positive, negative, matter and anti-matter (the Rebbe). From them and through combinations of them will extend all states of matter. Matter itself, however, has yet to come into being.

It should also be noted that matter can be found in four distinct states: solid, liquid, gas and plasma. Energy also comes in four distinct forms: gravity, electromagnetism, the weak nuclear force and the strong nuclear force. The ancients also distinguished four domains of the biosphere: domem (lit. dumb, mute), flora, fauna and ‘speakers’ (humans).”

Horton listened carefully and heard a Who
But could not convince Kangaroo.
Now 16 of the Elephant party
All thinking they are the smarty,
Can’t hear voters in their self created tohubohu.

Hard to imagine life without him the past two months! Maybe he is a “go getter” like his Mommy and didn’t want to wait!

Well, great. The fallout from my ultrasound indicates the need for more tests. It’s never ending.

Thank you.

She had had a stroke at the end of March and somehow survived. But she lost the use of her right side and could not speak or feed herself.

It’s been a tough season, but she’s at peace now.
