  1. Thoughts about God

    my holy trinity is H2O... liquid, solid, gas... basis of life as I experience it...
  2. It is not possible to be separated from Source.
  3. Sex

    Very close friend of mine is asexual. He's in his 60's, has never had sex and has never had any interest in it. Some folks just plain refuse to believe this is even possible... heheh.
  4. You're: contraction of you are: You're an ignorant fuck. Your: possessive, something belongs to you: Your brain is that of an ignorant fuck.

  5. you're making your point, but then, it's weaker than it could be

    Not in the slightest my friend I assure you... I'm usually so lost in my own mind that my wife asks if bibliographies come with some of our conversations... I'm in a wonderful and very whimsical exploration of the nature of the definitions of words, double meanings and how individuals relate to them on a personal and cultural level, if possible. Whether any of that comes across I have no idea, but I assure you, my intentions here are to play, never harm. *bow*
  6. you're making your point, but then, it's weaker than it could be

    so much of communication is dependent upon what definition we hold for words and that is flavored by our upbringing and our filters... it's almost as if each word has a unique definition for each person... tone of voice, body language are such a massive influence on communication. words have and embody weak points that tone of voice and body language do not
  7. you're making your point, but then, it's weaker than it could be

    I've been teaching my son to read, so this is all coming back out lately. Context is everything. The bandage was wound around the wound. The farm is a place to produce produce. The dump was full so it has to refuse any more refuse. You can only present a present in the present. Would you please polish the Polish furniture? The soldier had to desert his dessert in the desert. She painted a bass on her bass drum. The dove, dove into a bush. The invalid made a claim that was invalid. The fans had a row about which row had their seats. I object to that object. The wind will not allow us to wind the sail. He shed a tear over the tear in the sail. How shall I intimate this to my intimate friend?

  10. Watching The Birds

    dinosaurs, afraid of a mammal? NEVER
  11. you're making your point, but then, it's weaker than it could be

    I wrote this in college, my professor loved it so much she laminated it.
  12. It feels a lot like trying to convert someone to another religion. Foaming at the mouth and spewing hateful words and vitriol will do little aside from make your blood pressure rise and make people want to argue their side all the more intensely... But then, sometimes we need to blow off steam. In the end, there's just not one way to think about any subject. Never will be.
  13. Ebola coming to the USA

    anti-bacterial my heiny... wash with good foamy soap and sing loudly... it scares the demons of illness
  14. What the hell is the abyss anyways?

    holy mother of blades... that thing is outstanding! your sword is definitely bigger than mine... *deep bow*
  15. Right on... Lately I'm sensing that darkness is just light I'm unable to perceive... yet.

  18. Living off grid

    This NYC boy went way off grid... He's got a very well laid out system, used minimal investment to get a very comfy lifestyle for himself, out in the 'center of the middle of nowhere' .... direct quote.
  19. You should look this guy up and study with him. http://www.collective-evolution.com/2013/07/04/a-man-has-not-eaten-or-drank-any-liquids-for-70-years-science-examines-him/ I wonder what he gets mad about
  20. Spiritual career

    What a great topic. You most definitely can live the life you want and have a spiritual job. Though I can find spirituality in my woodworking and sculpting, some folks might not agree, but that's semantics. If you can envision it, you can live it. My wife has decided to change jobs to a more spiritual focus. She's been working for the last 12 years with Venture Capitalists... When she told me, she was taking a job with a firm doing this I was flabbergasted. We met on stage. She's an artist and a performer at heart. I could not believe it. She took invaluable lessons away in the process, but sheesh the price... brutal. I wouldn't last a month. She did it for the 'security' and the great money and the 'security'. Well 12 years later, she's learned some outstanding spiritual lessons in dealing with these sharks every single day of her professional life, but she's realized fully that there is A: no security to be had and B: it's killing her to stay there. So we've planned it out and she's taking a year off starting in a few months. Going through a full detox. Going on retreat. Getting her credentials to teach yoga and spending a year simply being. Mom, Wife, Woman... just be, explore, sit, play. After that, she's going to take up teaching yoga, she's been practicing for decades and has toyed with it on and off. I suspect she'll probably also find some part time work in a florist shop or a plant store. Maybe we'll combine them into one yoga, plant, teahouse. Life is short. I'm so proud that she's got the stones to walk away from a career like she's built and pursue her heart and feed her spirit with something she loves, something that will make her soul shine. You may as well try and do what you love and yea, you might fail, but then you can fail at something you don't want to do as well.
  21. Enlightened movies

    I get invites to most of them, not all, but have only attended two and that was to hang out with the crew, not for the film. Most movies are not my thing... I'm a picky twat.
  22. What the hell is the abyss anyways?

    my sword is not bigger than your sword...
  23. Enlightened movies

    I build props and scenery.
  24. I did perform in some summer stock as a teen, where my pay was basically food and a place to sleep out of the weather. So the toll could readily have been veal.
  25. Enlightened movies

    I worked on that. I still haven't seen it myself, I'll add it to the list.
