Our Indigenous Vietnamese family back in South #Vietnam village still practice the new year ritual of putting a couple of lucky red envelopes with some money in them, into their refillable, large rice barrel. To protect the family from hunger & keep being blessed with rice & food to eat 🙏🍚🌾

I hate to admit this, but I may be responsible for the unseasonably mild winter so far in Montana. I've kept my snowbrush too handy in my car, and now the snow is staying away. I'll have your weather forecast tonight!

🏷3️⃣. This other Dimension is just PROVEN FACT.. you gotta stop being so Para & a little Delulu (#Superstitious). It can't be taken away, it's just there.. so. You not BELIEVING in it, really don't make it not the truth. Would you look at people who don't believe in God/Universe. Well they just mf wrong.

... if you stop Believing in #TheSeperation between Dimensions for a moment, that's just one of the (Keys) to get in/out. We know this, THEY DON'T

●. It's about Specifics here a little

I wish I weren't so #superstitious, but I just plugged in a USB cord correctly on the first try and I can't help but think other things have to go terribly wrong in order to restore balance to the universe.

In some cultures and traditions, it's considered good luck if the first words you say in a new month are "White Rabbits". I'm not superstitious, but this is something I tend to do most months. Thought this could be a fun chance to draw bunny costumes, and Anna looking annoyed at having to play along.

Providentialism

In Christianity, providentialism is the belief that all events on Earth are controlled by God.

It’s sometimes viewed by believers as differing between national & personal Providence. Some English & American believers came to view personal providentialism as backwards & superstitious, but continue to believe in national providentialism.

National providentialism is described, by British historian Nicholas Guyatt, as encircling 3 broad beliefs: 1) God judged nations on the virtues of its leaders. 2) There’s a special role for certain nations. 3) God worked out a master plan through the role of various nations.

Providentialism was regularly featured in the conversation of European political & intellectual elites seeking to justify imperialism in the 19th century, on the grounds that the suffering caused by European conquest was justified on the grounds of furthering God’s plan & spreading Christianity, & civilization, to distant nations.

Providentialism may be understood as the acceptance of the belief that all that happens in the world is for the greater good. Since, “God created the social order appointed each individual in his place within it.”
