I saw in my news feed that Gordon Lightfoot died. He was a famous Canadian singer/songwriter who had several very popular songs in the 70s. I really like one called The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald, although it is a sad song. It's kind of a Sea Shanty with acoustic and electric guitar that tells the true story of a ship that sank in Lake Superior in 1975 during a raging storm.
Does anyone know where the love of God goes
When the waves turn the minutes to hours?
We could discuss this question that Lightfoot posed in his song but it's fairly faith shaking. The study of Theodicy, popularly called The Problem Of Evil, is something philosophers and theologians spend a lot of time thinking about. Why couldn't an all knowing all loving all powerful deity do something about the terrible death by drowning that these crewmen suffered? You know YOU would save them if you knew everything and had every power and loved everybody. You would try to save them if you could, even as a regular human.
But God didn't. Why? No one knows. It's a mystery. We probably should leave it at that and move on.
MY ACTIVITY
was a walk under a beautiful nearly full moon that a deity or physics created. Whatever you choose to believe, you can enjoy that beautiful moon with all the rest of us. We all share it as it looks down on all of us.
Whatever you believe, I respect you and love you!
Have a great day!!!

I know a song that goes like this, "Heaven holds all the secrets that we will never know until we are there". So, I am thinking when we get there, the Almighty will tell us why he did not save the ship even though he had the power to do so.
May the soul of your favorite artist rest in peace

These are also some famous singers of Pakistan who are now gone from this world but their songs are still famous here. Even today, new versions of his songs are made and gain's cores views. A person leaves this world only his memories remain. The song is very good I have listened to the whole song.
This is really not a way to start a new month for the family. Rip
I like the tone of his singing.. RIP Gordon.
Haven't heard of him but it's sad about the news.
Rest in peace Gordon Lightfoot! He will be alive in his fan's heart. 70's songs are awesome though its the era of my grandparents. I love old songs more than the newest creations. His songs and creations will keep him alive. He will be missed by his fan !!!
I saw you made 9k activities recently which is closer to 10k and really a good number for a actifit report card. Bravo man! 💖🥂🐝💗
Having a glimpse of the moon will always have a therapeutic feeling attached to it . One can't just get enough of nature's blessings !!
thank you so much for sharing a great report and a good song, have a nice day
Very sad news. But No one can do anything in front of death as it's a reality.
SAd to know about the death of a famous comedian, may his soul rest in peace.
