I haven't blogged in a while for two main reasons: 1.) I've been mightily consumed in reading and assimilating Thomas Campbell's Trilogy "My Big TOE" and 2.) I recently made my blog more available/accessible than ever in the past and I believe that has made me somewhat reticent to spill the way I used to.
I'm not even sure what I came here to write about, but knowing me over these past three months or so, I imagine it has something to do with Tom Campbell. Ever since a couple of weeks before my birthday when I watched his London Lecture on YouTube (I will have to paste a link I guess or you can just go a couple posts back to get my initial impression as captured back then)

and basically became a convert, he's all I want to talk about. Convert is a very bad way of putting it though since his theory is not a church or a religion any more than I believe Michael Sharp's Lightning Path is, although I can see the potential for it in both.
Now I am reading his trilogy and assimilating it like I said, which basically means finding all of the similarities I can between this new material and everything else I've absorbed through the years, which of course more than anything is the work of Neale Donald Walsch.
I have befriended a couple of dear folks on the My Big TOE discussion forums and one of them has lovingly suggested in a private message or two that there may be a book in me somewhere. Well after giving it a modicum of introspection, I thought if there's really something in there, maybe it's got something to do with comparing and contrasting the teachings from both, if I can manage to finish My Big TOE (henceforth to be shortened in my references to "MBT") and continue comprehending at least as much as I've managed to figure out so far.
I have the comments I made on YouTube to refer to, where I pointed out most of the comparisons that sprang to mind most easily, as a jumping off point.
I guess I will keep this blog updated with my progress, if any gets made!
Edit: Tom Campbell wants to include me in his acknowledgements! OMG I am in heaven! Finally, for once, my incurable, incessant typo-spotting affliction works in my favor!
