A SUPER CRAZY HAT UPDATE:  Remember the story about me finding Charlie’s hat on the sidewalk curve?  The hat that had been missing for about three weeks?  Well there has been a slight twist in events because today we found the hat again!  I saw the hat at my mother-in-law’s house and I quickly asked  April, “Hey did you bring this hat here?”  ”No.” she said.  Her face was as confused as mine.  Both us were thinking the exact same thing, “Well then whose hat do we have at our house?  Is it some one else’s?”  This experience was very weird.  What is the chance of me finding a hat that looks exactly like Charlie’s, as I am walking back to pick up his other that Charlie just through out of his wagon, while April and I were strolling around down town?  Before today I would have said no chance, but I now see that there is one.  As a result, finding the actual hat throws a wrench in the possible reasons for finding the “hat” the first time.  Could I still say that I created it or that a spirit guided me to it or that it was meant to be?  Sure but then I would have to change the beliefs a bit so that they could now fit the new story.  This is sort of like the phrase, “moving the goal post”, which basically means changing your ideas so that your ideas are not wrong.  For instance, suppose someone finds a study that conflicts with their beliefs.  Their reaction could be, “Well that is just one study; that doesn’t really show much.”  Even if more evidence conflicts with their beliefs, they can just keep moving the goal post farther and farther back, to the point that the beliefs can never be seen as possibly false.  Better yet, is when one study, or form of evidence, is found that supports their beliefs and they say, “Told you so!”  Thus, only one is needed to confirm while an uncountable amount is needed to expose the lack of reason.So if anyone one else is missing a blue hat with orange stripes and ear flaps let me know because Charlie cannot wear two at a time.  Yes, two heads are better than one, but you still only need one hat.

After a week of three times the amount of diaper and outfit changes, Charlie is fully back to normal now.  :lol: I’m so glad that is over; I don’t look forward to the next one.  Depending on what your belief is about reality some would say,

If you don’t want it, then don’t create it.  You have the power to create anything in your reality.

Others may say,

You have no choice, there is no free will, it will or won’t happen; there is nothing you can do about it

and others may say,

the Universe does not hear NO’s or NOT’s so focus your energy on positive thoughts.

and others may say

Just pray to (insert who ever), they will keep you in perfect health.

I have held all of these beliefs, probably many others too, at least once during my span of 30 years.  Now what belief do I hold as True?  All?  None?  I guess I would say both ALL and NONE since I really don’t hold any of them as the ultimate Truth.  Why pick sides? Sure if you don’t stand for some thing then you fall for everything; however I have seen many people stand for something and ignore every thing. Yada, yada, yada, philosophy….So April and I were taking Charlie on wagon ride yesterday.  I look back to see that Charlie no longer had his hat on.  Then in the distance I see his little blue hat on the sidewalk.  I run back to pick it up and upon my return I see another hat of Charlie’s.  Finding this other hat was amazing because we have been looking for it for the past three weeks.  The whole time the hat was sitting there on the sidewalk waiting for our return.  I’ll let you decide if the hat was there the whole time, if I created the hat being their, or at that moment I finally wanted to have the hat again thus seeing the hat, or a spirit told to look down or just wow congrats on finding the hat.
