Changes

Teacher Samuel: “This is your [[group]]’s teacher, Samuel.  My [[thoughts]] for you for today are about the vast [[differences]] that exist between [[Human]]s and [[Morontia]] [[Beings]] in their [[feelings]] about the [[progress]]ion of [[time]].  It is not unusual for someone in the Morontia Worlds to [[work|take]] on a project that will last a thousand years or more to complete, sometimes working in near [[isolation]].  Our thoughts about starting a certain task, working on it for a time, and ending it, has nothing more to do with the likely impatience [[human being]]s [[experience]] when something simply ‘takes too long.’  That very-much-human feeling of, ‘will I ever get to the end of this?’ rarely exists anymore in the [[Morontia Worlds]].

“One could say that during a human [[Life Cycle|life]] a project that takes as much as a year to complete is a near endless task, whilst we see many [[Celestial Artisans]], many specific experts at solving particular [[problems]], as do the [[Life Carriers]] and [[Melchizedeks]] in their Morontia [[existence]], work on certain matters for periods that may extend into thousands of years, even a million years, or more.

“And so, we must come to [[understand]] the human [[feelings]] about someone who has early in life departed from a [[family]] [[group]] -- the [[Grief|grieving]] that takes place, the concern for the [[Health|wellbeing]] of the departed [[individual]], and yes, even the initial concern of the departed individual for the family group, which he or she has left behind.
