God looks like us

How can He possibly look like ALL of us, when we all look so different from one another? (I'm sure that the one whom you describe as the good-looking Thal doesn't look at all like me, for starters - and I rather doubt that you look especially like either Mother Teresa of Calcutta did or like Alessandra Mussolini still does, either...)

so - i figure that i see God in every person i meet.  especially those who are not held in high esteem.

You'd better have a mirror at the ready to hold up before you when you meet me, then!...

you just never know who you will meet.

Indeed not - especially on internet piano fora!...

i will feel even more blessed when i fully regain my memory of 20 years ago.

Do you truly belive that you have lost some over that time, then? If so, what precisely are you doing to try to "regain" it?

watching the news - it says that people who actively use their brains don't lose them as fast as people who do not challenge their brains with puzzles or question things.

Well, whilst it is surely well known that you can't believe everything that you hear or see on "the news", this much is undoubtedly true - but then maybe you could help your memory regaining endeavours by "questioning" some things far more than you do (and please note that I wrote "questioning", not "disbelieving"...)

Best,
