The Eternal Sea

11 days. I thought 2016 was an important election but this one is shaping up to be a defining moment for this country and it's only 11 days away.
My crazy, well thought out, possibly game changing idea is not about this election,  never was. The outrage and unrest that could come from it will hopefully be a springboard for what I have in mind. As we have learned from some of my posts, timing is everything in a political climate. Still not ready to spill the beans just yet but I do need to finish some of the background of the story in the next 11 days.
The Eternal Sea
According to bible scholars, this is the world of politics. I am no expert in the bible nor in politics. That said, I did stay in a Holiday Inn Express a few times, so there's that.
Over the past few years, I have done many talk radio shows with a good friend on SaltyTalkRadio. Mark has expanded my knowledge, not from my pizza consumption (a signature of the show "pizza is knowledge ") but from the exploration into ideology. Our back and forth and open mindedness allows for good conversation and the presentation of different ideas. It is safe to say that our friendship has helped me grow as a person and our endless hours of talking has improved my critical thinking skills. Not sucking up, just stating facts.
Bible. Eternal Sea.  The first time I heard this phrase, actually read this phrase, was in the book "The Omen". Read it before the movie came out. Actually, many books that I read lead me to opening the bible. Business and the principles of business are outlined in the bible. Quotes in PMA books nearly forced me into reading it. I managed to finish twice. And because the Book of Revelations seemed to hold some foreshadowing of what was to come, "The Left Behind" series was devoured as well. (Read 8 of the books in a month.)
Holiday Inn Express,  remember? I've read a couple books, quickly and have 3 hour long conversations with an intelligent friend, ate pizza and now an expert in the world of politics!
Eternal Sea. Endless, perpetual, timeless. How are these things possible without "ever changing"? The water that rolls up the beach with one wave, is not the same water that crashes on the sand the next time. Maybe some but not all. And after a few waves, it's all new. Constantly moving, shifting and changing that, to me, is the Eternal Sea.
And not a swamp.
