Jesus that thing was a work of art- put together by Felicia, Barry, Ed, Jeremy Frost and I think Frank and Joey Ciolino.

This Post is in response of a comment made By Jay Albert in a previous post questioning if we really knew the meaning of the word Homie.

Could you describe an orgasm to someone who has never had one? And if a person has never had an orgasm, would you think them crazy or foolish if they said they didn’t believe orgasms exist because they had never experienced one, or would you just feel a little sorry for them not having had the experience?  Further, every person’s experience of an orgasm is different from the next person’s.  They go from brief instances of pleasure to multiple earth moving experiences, and everything in between.  Even for the same person, they are different from experience to experience.  My youngest sister made a very profound statement at a birthday party when she was a child. She said to my mother: “No one knows what chocolate cake tastes like to me.”  I have never forgotten that, and how it applies to all experiences in life.

So it is with people who have experienced a personal encounter with God. There are no words to adequately describe an experience of such profound, life-altering magnitude, except to others who have had a similar experience, but even then, they are each unique.  Just as each of our experiences with another person are unique.  Does someone who has experienced God think those who haven’t are fools?  Of course not, they just feel sad that they haven’t and hope that they one day they will.  Why then do people who have not had a personal experience with God think those who have to be crazy or fools, and wish them to not talk about a most profound experience?  If you meet and fall madly in love with someone, how would you feel if everyone you know wished you not to talk about him or her; or worse, if someone believes they had a bad experience with that person, and wants you stop loving the one you love because of it?

So it goes too often with God.  Many people at one point in time may have had a relationship with Him, but then they turned away and followed a different path and now feel guilty, or something happened in their life that they blame God for, and now they are angry at him. Some have just never seen the need to have any kind of relationship with Him whatsoever, but feel there is something missing in their life.  Fortunately, no matter how we might feel or think about Him, God loves each and every one of us dearly, and will rush to us, if we just ask Him to.  He will never force us, but will always be waiting patiently for our call.  And He is always faithful and just to forgive our sins (missing the mark), if we ask.

I’ve long believed that God gave us orgasms for three reasons: our pleasure, to ensure procreation, and as a tiny hint of what the experience of a relationship with Him is like.

Good Morning Joey,

I was wondering if you might do something…

I am currently working on my Senior Thesis to finish my Bachelor’s degree in Business Management at Endicott College. As part of the primary data collection, I have put together a short (22 question), completely anonymous survey. And although it seems completely connected… this is personal, not for the Phyllis A, it just happened to be a very easy topic for me to research on. Would it be possible to have it shared on Good Morning Gloucester?

If not, I completely understand.

Here’s the link: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/ABHSurvey

Thanks!

Editors note: I took the survey, question 15 asks if Gloucester had a hand’s on children’s museum where children could learn about mid-20 century Gloucester seaside folk-life- (Don’t we already have Maritime Gloucester????) Is that not exactly what we already do have?  I don’t understand the “If” part.  We do.

15. If Gloucester, Massachusetts had a hands-on children’s museum, where children could learn about mid-20th century Gloucester’s seaside folk-life and bringing their seafood dinner from the ocean to the table, through play, how likely would you be to support/ visit that?
