Here's  a small cut from the movie The Point. In this scene The "Rock Man" tells the young boy Oblio about life. Oblio had been banished from the land of Point because he was different than everyone else - his head was round and everybody else's head had a point on the top. Oblio has just gone through a scary adventure in the pointless forest and has just run into The Rock Man, a creature made out of rocks who is quite the cool character. Watch this:

    Later on in the day, after Chris JR's birth, I answered an email from a friend who was inquiring about the birth. This is what I wrote:

     Everything went well with my daughter Christine’s C-section birth. A little past 8:00 a.m. out came an 8LB 14OZ baby boy with a length of 21 inches and a head diameter of 15”. His name is Christopher Robert Tracy Jr. When it came down to it the whole affair of his birth was miraculous: Christine had a dream a week or two ago where she visualized her baby with the umbilical cord wrapped around its neck and it wasn’t moving. She told her doctor about. As it turned out, when they opened Christine up they discovered the baby did have the umbilical cord wrapped around his neck – TWICE. His hands and feet were purple when he first came out and were for a couple of hours afterward. My experience of what I saw was amazing. I got to see little Chris as he was being cleaned up in the nursery. When I first saw him I was so thankful to Jesus for bringing this little man into our lives that I felt a tremendous feeling in my heart just looking at him in glimpses through the people around him and then when the nurse lifted him up in the air and presented him to us straight ahead in his naked newness I was so overwhelmed that I was laughing and crying at the same time and my mind just went right to heaven for an instant. Everything happened beyond our hopes because not only did we get a beautiful healthy baby boy but we had the Grace that comes from God through that little baby instilled into our hearts. Today was a blessed day!

I put together a slide show movie of the photos taken that day and uploaded it to YouTube. Here it is in this post. (Make sure you have your computer sound on so you can hear the audio track).

The cry of a mighty angel. He gives John a book to eat.

 1 And I saw another mighty angel come down from heaven, clothed with a cloud, and a rainbow was on his head, and his face was as the sun, and his feet as pillars of fire. 2 And he had in his hand a little book open: and he set his right foot upon the sea, and his left foot upon the earth. 3 And he cried with a loud voice as when a lion roareth. And when he had cried, seven thunders uttered their voices. 4 And when the seven thunders had uttered their voices, I was about to write: and I heard a voice from heaven saying to me: Seal up the things which the seven thunders have spoken; and write them not. 5 And the angel, whom I saw standing upon the sea and upon the earth, lifted up his hand to heaven,  6 And he swore by him that liveth for ever and ever, who created heaven, and the things which are therein; and the earth, and the things which are in it; and the sea, and the things which are therein: That time shall be no longer. 7 But in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he shall begin to sound the trumpet, the mystery of God shall be finished, as he hath declared by his servants the prophets. 8 And I heard a voice from heaven again speaking to me, and saying: Go, and take the book that is open, from the hand of the angel who standeth upon the sea, and upon the earth. 9 And I went to the angel, saying unto him, that he should give me the book. And he said to me: Take the book, and eat it up: and it shall make thy belly bitter, but in thy mouth it shall be sweet as honey. 10 And I took the book from the hand of the angel, and ate it up: and it was in my mouth, sweet as honey: and when I had eaten it, my belly was bitter. 11 And he said to me: Thou must prophesy again to many nations, and peoples, and tongues, and kings.

Take a look now at the circled area enlarged - and keep looking back at the original image to keep persepective - and I think you will begin to see things in the picture that have definite form.

Here's the circled area enlarged:



And here's how I interpret it:



It's up to your own imagination to figure out what any of this might mean based on the interpretation points that I have shown.

Here's a short clip from the movie - a song titled "Think About Your Troubles" sung, of course, by Harry Nilsson.
