Energy stuck in the head, insanity, anger, going nuts

A seasonal effect? Possibly more pronounced in the spring, slowing in summer diminishing in fall? I gain great comfort working in, walking in, being in nature. My emotions often follow the seasons. -
Walls don't have to be confronted. Look to nature they can be dug under (ground hog) climbed over (snake) leapt over (deer) or ignored(me).

I maintain I didn't exist until an egg was fertilized. I, being the particular physical manifestation that I identify as myself. From that zygote nine months (more or less) later a huge (relative to the zygote anyway) being emerged as an individual (at least in my case) so yes I believe in miracles. This or that is my current understanding. I studied soil classification many decades ago as a requirement of earning a degree. My understanding of soil has grown even though I am not current with the latest in soil nomenclature. My ability to converse with others is limited whether it be soil, or anything else for that matter. I suspect but can't prove that I am not alone in that. My understandings of soil have grown over the years mostly through observations which were / are prejudiced by my needs and desires. I find a place of comfort to explore from. During my explorations I often tumble into a rabbit warren. It may or may not be comfortable. Based upon my experience I think I learn and grow more when confronted with discomfort. I don't intentionally seek discomfort. But I don't run away from it either. Random tombstones I have encountered include : Born Suffered Died, and I knew this would happen someday. I consider me (my being) a gift / blessing of the highest order. As are all of my senses.

" 90% of success is showing up" While I agree, I would counter that 100% of failures begin by not showing up. Choices always better than orders! Two examples of the many gems insights offered in this thread. Thanks

I will add a welcome to all of the sentiments expressed above!

It all depends upon your path and the signs therein... For instance should you encounter a sign stating: "abandon hope all ye who enter here" I suggest: An immediate u turn or should you find "your going through hell don't slow down keep on moving"

I find refuge "Up on the roof" or in the boughs of a tree. And yes from time to time at the Daobums. Something about "That which does not kill me..."
