I am reading a book, Hyperspace, by Michio Kaku, that’s a bit over my head, but I’m enjoying it and plugging through. However, today I came to a point of frustration that I cried out to God… “God! I’m so frustrated! I can read the words and know what they say, but I don’t have the ability to understand, to comprehend!” at that point, He answered my prayer, my cry for help, and things started opening up to me. Not that I understand like the physicist would understand, but I began to comprehend something of the matter.

Well, I was reading along, and the book was talking about how Einstein came to be thinking about gravitation. One thing led to another in my mind and soon I was on the phone with my son, Bob, talking about falling, feeling weightless, and landing. (He’s had plenty of practice in all these through his boyhood gymnastics training).

We agreed that weightlessness is great, and falling is not a problem. The only problem is making sure the landing is good! “Stick that landing, Bob!” :-)
Sorry… no photos of me jumping off the stairs, trying to fly!!
