First to my fellow Canadians I wish you all a Happy Canada Day. I would have done something special here, but my schedule didn't allow it.

Second of all in the past couple of days I've started to realize a few things.

1. Part of one of life's major obstacles is one's struggle to maintain their identity while also finding their place in the world. Everyone comes from all walks of life, be it race, spiritual beliefs, even something as simple in one's identity as their gender, sexual orientation and political views, are all a part of one's identity. However, while they do shape up who we are as people on the surface. There is more to it than just the labels. Case in point there are Good Christians and Bad Christians, but some people outside of Christianity be it another religion or an equally extremist Atheist view, cannot tell the difference due to their own experiences with said religion as even the Good Christians carry on traits that are Red Flags on what it means to be a Bad Christian. Me, I'm religiously diverse based on the fact that not all Christians alone are the same. Some just go by the positive messages based on how they interpret them. Others take the message the wrong way, when in actuality, they're using it as an excuse to indulge on impulses so bad that if there is a Hell, no matter how much they pray otherwise, they're going there. Same can be said about others in all forms of life, there are those who try to provide a positive example of what it takes to be a different race, a different sex, a different religion and so on. However there is always those of those example, that believe in such backwards puritan bullshit, that they think it's a viable excuse to be as prejudice as they view the world to be. That applies to all of you by the way. No Race, Sex, Religion, Orientation, Gender Identity or even political view you have, gets a free pass from me. Not even White people, not even men, not even straights. I judge by the character underneath and if you don't show good character to me, then you're not worth my time and energy. Period. Having said that, we have the right to identify ourselves however we want, but if we don't find a place to fit in this ever changing world, there is no point in holding on to identities that either no longer matter or were never you in the first place. Find out who you are first, then find out where you place in the world. Everything else, good and bad will make sure afterwards.
2. Sometimes when people have more than one problem in their life, it's not as simple as you view them. Let's do a hypothetical scenario. Let's say you met someone going crazy after smoking crack. Now on the surface you would think that the crack is what's doing it and to some extent it is, but if you don't look further into it and it turns out to be more than that, then it's a lot more complex than you think. For example let's say not to long after you met said crack smoker you met another person going crazy, after meeting the smoker, even if the person isn't lighting up, you automatically assume said person is another fucking crackhead. Only to find out that that person actually suffered a severe mental disorder and had trouble expressing themselves socially. And while you correct yourself, you'll always have that odd thought such as "If that person is not smoking crack, I'd hate to know what's really wrong with them." Addiction and Mental Health struggles are the number one priorities all over the world. But when someone has both along with other problems like say, witnessing trauma, getting brain damage or abused in general, that person becomes a ticking time bomb that even the most expert of therapists would be afraid to diffuse. However, if you know the person behind the drugs and the problems, well enough that you can at least help them to some extent and their character proves worthy of the help, then they are worth every bit of effort you can muster to help them. Myself, whenever I spoke to addicts in the past, by coincidence has had at least one disorder or two. It made me realize that these specific addicts have problems that stem deeper than mere substance abuse and while I do strongly suggest a rehab and a mental health therapy session, I often feel if it's a problem I can solve based on my study and experience on the matter, I could help them succeed where others failed in that respect. Only problem was, that it took a lot of time, effort and money just to figure out what the problems were at first, before I could figure out how to help them. That said, based on the results I seen, it was worth it.
3. This is a bit out there, but I think I may have decoded God's Plan.

Ok, I mostly did it out of curiosity and kicks, but like many others whom been around Christians, I had my fair share of memorable bible verses. Just out of Random I did the following verses:

1. John 3:16 "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life."
2. Jerimiah 29:11 " 'For I know the plans I have for you.' declares the Lord. "Plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."
3. Proverbs 3:5 "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding."

Now these alone are easy to understand. At least in my interpretation it means:

1. As long as you believe that what is sacrificed was not in vein, you can go on forever.
2. Sometimes even the people you love will go behind your back, but it's not as harmful as you assume.
3. If you have your faith in something other than yourself, then all will be right.

However, due to my recent obsession with Angel Numbers, I decided to go further beyond the surface of these. I found that if you take the Colon Sign out of the middle of those numbers you have the following Numbers:

1. 316
2. 2911
3. 35

Which after looking up Angel Numbers at Astrology.com, mean the following things:

1. "Angel number 316 comes as a reminder that you are a spiritual being, and your thoughts and actions hold the power to shape your reality. You have a divine purpose that you must work towards fulfilling, and this number is an indication that you are headed in the right direction."
2. "Angel number 2911 has a strong spiritual meaning. It suggests that you should seek spiritual enlightenment, connect with your angels and the universe, and tap into your spiritual potential to fulfill your life purpose and mission. This number urges you to lead a life of service, help others in their spiritual journey, and have faith in the divine plan of the universe for your life."
3. "The spirituality meaning of angel number 35 is that you may be going through a transformational period in your spiritual journey. You may be discovering a new path or shifting your beliefs. Trust that this change is necessary for your spiritual growth and that it’s leading you closer to your purpose."

These numbers by themselves have meanings both by themselves and to an extent expand on those verse quotes. However, don't think this means you have to drop your text and say you're a Christian. I sure as Hell am not going to that extreme lol. However, if something as simple and well known to religion as the Bible contains messages hidden within the books, through the verses and even the numbers, then the same could be said of all religious text.

Case in point the other Abrahamic Religions: Islam and Judaism.

1. The Quran has 114 chapters and over 6236 verses.
2. The Torah has 5 books and a total of 50 Chapters in the first book alone (Genesis) and over 5845 verses.

And that's just the three majors, I'm sure older and newer religions have their own share of text with numbers.

Point being is that these books can be interpreted in many ways based on the beliefs and views of the people reading them. In my case I figured there was more to the bible than mere quotes and God talk, due to my love of religious based mysteries like the Da Vinci Code and Indiana Jones. That maybe the reason why people had trouble figuring out the meanings of the books, whether they believe it or not, were because they didn't look hard enough. Or as a famous serial killer Cannibal once said, they looked, but didn't see. Me I overthink and look too hard into things, but once and a while the looking pays off as it allows me to understand and expand on the meanings of these words and numbers that allows me in my POV to get a three dimensional perspective on what the verses mean and how the numbers factor into it.

Case in point, I theorize the Angel Numbers in this case the chapter and verse numbers in the bible are the Angel's contribution to the story through a language most can, but often have trouble understanding: Numbers.

So using those examples here's how it would go in the literal.

1. "Angel number 316 comes as a reminder that you are a spiritual being, and your thoughts and actions hold the power to shape your reality. You have a divine purpose that you must work towards fulfilling, and this number is an indication that you are headed in the right direction. For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life."
2. "Angel number 2911 has a strong spiritual meaning. It suggests that you should seek spiritual enlightenment, connect with your angels and the universe, and tap into your spiritual potential to fulfill your life purpose and mission. This number urges you to lead a life of service, help others in their spiritual journey, and have faith in the divine plan of the universe for your life. For I know the plans I have for you.' declares the Lord. 'Plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."
3. "The spirituality meaning of angel number 35 is that you may be going through a transformational period in your spiritual journey. You may be discovering a new path or shifting your beliefs. Trust that this change is necessary for your spiritual growth and that it’s leading you closer to your purpose. Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding."

Sensical but too rough for people to understand off the bat. But if I were to try to make the meanings more organic by my interpretations they're as followed:

1. You're spiritual, you have a divine purpose and you're going the right direction. Jesus didn't die for nothing regarding you.
2. Pray for guidance, give what you can't handle to the universe or whatever God you worship, for no matter how much it may seem, they have your best interest at heart. But the rest is up to you and what you can do.
3. You're going through a lot of changes in your life. Some painful, some scary, some so confusing they may make you question your faith, but if you trust in your higher power with all your heart, you will go through these changes and be better rather than worse.

But that's just me, you can interpret that any way you wish. But if the others are like what I shown here, I may have found a new way for people to look at the religions of old. Provided I'm the first to figure this out. For all I know others have figured it out that way or another and couldn't say anything, because they'd be dismissed as crazy.

With that said, though, it helped me map out more in my life and where I fit in the world. I was meant to discover things like this among most other great things I didn't hope to accomplish.

Take care, stay safe and stay tuned for more.
