MATTER OF FACT

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I FIND THIS TO BE TRUE. IF YOU ARE NOT FINE AND ANSWER HONESTLY IT THROWS PEOPLE OFFGUARD AND THEY ARE NOT SURE HOW TO RESPOND IF THEY EVEN REALLY LISTEN TO YOUR REPLY OR JUST TUNE IT OUT...

CAN'T FIGURE IT OUT SO FAR

Author's Notes/Comments: 

BEEN DOING RAISE YOUR VIBRATION .. KUNDALINI YOGA MEDITATION FOR AWHILE NOW AND THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR AWHILE NOW...I SEE THEM EYES CLOSED DURING MEDITATION BUT  ALSO EYES OPEN AT OTHER TIMES...THEY ONLY SEEM FAMILIAR FROM SEEING THE SAME FACES OVER AND OVER AGAIN FOR AWHILE NOW BUT NO IDEA WHO THEY ARE...NOT RECOGNIZABLE TO ME...IT IS A STRANGE PHENOMENON...I DON'T NOTICE COLOR JUST BLACK AND WHITE AND JUST SEE THE FACE CLEARLY IN THE HOOD AND TOP PART OF THE ROBE LIKE MAYBE CHEST HIGH...NOT VERY BIG LIKE THE PALM OF MY HAND ZOOMING IN AND OUT ALWAYS FACING ME... SOMETIMES ONE FACE MORPHS INTO ANOTHER AND THEN ANOTHER AND SOMETIMES IT IS A PROCESSION OF DIFFERENT FACES...BUT MOST RECENTLY MOSTLY THE MORPHING FACE LIKE IT CHANGES INTO THREE DIFFERENT FACES AND THE LAST FACE ZOOMS BACKWARDS THEN COMES BACK IN THE SAME ORDER AS BEFORE FIRST ONE FACE THEN ANOTHER AND THEN THE LAST ONE THAT ZOOMS BACKWARDS AGAIN...TRUTH IS STRANGER THAN FICTION...AT LEAST IN THIS CASE I THINK SO....

STOP WASTING TIME

Author's Notes/Comments: 

WATCHING AUTUMN IN NY WITH A YOUNG GIRL DYING...THOSE TYPES OF MOVIES ALWAYS BRING TO MIND THE FACT THAT WE ARE ALL DYING...EVERY DAY IS ONE STEP CLOSER TO DEATH...MOST HAVE NO IDEA WHEN...SOME HAVE SOME IDEA WHEN BUT REGARDLESS ALL WILL DIE EVENTUALLY...YES IT'S SAD FOR THE ONES LEFT BEHIND...AND SCARY FOR THE ONES ABOUT TO DIE NOT SURE WHAT TO EXPECT...YES IT IS TRAGIC TO HAPPEN TO YOUNG PEOPLE BUT REGARDLESS DEATH IS A FACT OF LIFE SO IT BRINGS UP THOSE THOUGHTS TO ME....LIVE LIFE TO THE FULLEST THE BEST YOU CAN WHILE YOU HAVE THE CHANCE TO EXPERIENCE IT...BE THE BEST VERSION OF YOURSELF YOU CAN BE AND TRY YOUR BEST TO DO NO HARM TO YOURSELF OR ANYONE ELSE  INCLUDING ANIMALS AND THE ENVIRONMENT,ETC...THAT IS ALL THAT COMES TO MIND AT  THIS MOMENT IN TIME.

THOUGHTS ABOUT YOUR THOUGHTS

Author's Notes/Comments: 

MY MIND WAS WANDERING WHILE LISTENING TO SMILE AT FEAR AWAKENING THE TRUE HEART OF BRAVERY    Chögyam Trungpa  ON AUDIBLE...I WILL NEED TO LISTEN TO IT AGAIN AND REALLY PAY ATTENTION RATHER THAN DRIFT OFF WHILE LISTENING...IT IS VERY INTERESTING STUFF.

BLISS

Author's Notes/Comments: 

LISTENING TO JOSEPH CAMPBELL THE POWER OF MYTH ONE THROUGH SIX BILL MOYER INTERVIEWS JOSEPH CAMPBELL ON AUDIBLE...HE MENTIONED FOLLOWING YOUR BLISS AND IT MADE ME THINK OF THIS...

TECHNOLOGY

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I DON'T KNOW HOW MANY TIMES I HAVE SAID DON'T DO IT THAT WAY DO IT THIS WAY...THAT WAY WOULD MAKE TOO MUCH SENSE REFERING TO THE RIDICULOUSNESS OF COMPLICATING THINGS AND WASTING YOUR TIME INSTEAD OF STREAMLINING AND SIMPLIFYING TO SAVE TIME....THIS WAS IN RESPONSE TO AN EMAIL I GOT FROM DISCORD...A WEBSITE I DON'T EVEN USE. I THINK I SIGNED UP CUZ OF A MUSIC COURSE I ENDED UP CANCELING AND DON'T KNOW HOW TO DELETE MYSELF FROM THE WEBSITE. THEY SENT AN EMAIL ABOUT THEIR BRIGHT IDEA TO CHANGE EVERYONE'S ACCOUNT ID ON THERE AND SAID IF YOU DON'T GO THERE BY A CERTAIN DATE THEY WILL MAKE A NEW ACCOUNT ID YOU WILL BE STUCK WITH. I COULDN'T EVEN LOG IN OVER THERE WITH THEIR CRAZY CAPCHA CRAP AND THEY SEND EMAILS FROM THOSE STUPID NO REPLY ACCOUNTS SO YOU CAN'T EVEN TRY TO GET HELP BY SIMPLY REPLYING TO AN EMAIL AND YOU CAN'T ASK FOR HELP IF YOU CAN'T LOG IN TO THE WEB SITE. I JUST WANNA DELETE  MYSELF OFF OF THERE CUZ I NEVER USE IT ANYWAY...UGH...BEFORE THAT... MICROSOFT DELETED MY WINDOWS MOVIE MAKER OR UPDATED IT TOTHE NEW VERSION THAT I CAN'T FIGURE OUT HOW TO USE AND SAY THEY NO LONGER SUPPORT THE OLD VERSION SO I CAN'T  PUT ANYTHING ELSE ON YOUTUBE CUZ I DON'T HAVE ANYTHING I CAN USE TO UPLOAD THERE ANYMORE....I DO HAVE OVER SIX HUNDRED THINGS ON THERE ALREADY SO I GUESS I DON'T NEED TO UPLOAD ANYMORE BUT STILL IF I WANTED TO I CAN'T NOW CUZ I NO LONGER HAVE THE VERSION I KNEW HOW TO USE ON MY COMPUTER I GUESS  FROM A WINDOWS UPDATE THEY  MESSED IT UP FOR ME...I AM NOT TECHNOLOGY SAVVY SO THESE THINGS REALLY BOTHER ME. YOU WOULD THINK THEY WOULD SIMPLIFY RATHER THAN COMPLICATE THINGS. I TRY TO LIMIT COMPUTER TIME AND END UP WASTING WAY TOO MUCH TIME TRYING TO FIGURE THINGS OUT ON THERE ...IT IS VERY FRUSTRATING. THAT STUFF WAS ON MY  MIND WHEN I WROTE MY POEM...ALL THOSE CRAZY CAPCHA THINGS AND PASSWORD RULES AND TWO STEP VERIFICATION AND ALL THAT TIME WASTING STUFF JUST BOGGLES THE MIND...SIMPLIFY...DON'T COMPLICATE...RANT OVER...
