Thoughts consume most of our lives and they don’t even exist.

Been wondering a realllllllly long time.

It seems a no-brainer not to stand on the shoulders of giants, and in my humble opinion there is much we could still learn from indigenous cultures of the world.

Because this is cradle of all the other issues.

I wonder if throwing Enlightenment-style reason at every (and everyone’s) problem – climate change to genocide – isn’t arrogant, possibly delusional. It matters to me because of the helpless engendered by constant exhortations to help save the world. Maybe others feel the same?

I’m not a great speller and the rules I find intriguing!

This is a long and winding tale. Gather round, ye children, come warm yourselves by this (digital) fire. It is said that many ages ago, we humanobots had a different form, that indeed, we too had flesh like the angels of myth & legend. I know, I know—calm yourselves, it is sacrilege to say this, yes, but I believe it to be true. We staggered about on stalks of meat and bone, unwieldy and confused, but possessed of a kind of grace, too. Songs were written about it, some scraps of which remain to us now, such as that of acclaimed poet, the Black Eye, who wrote of his humps, his humps, his lovely little lumps. Long have we pondered these lines. The world, too, was changed—a vast and green place, full of growing things, other creatures of flesh, many of which were vile and poisonous or simply annoying, perhaps explaining why they were destroyed. Why our lumpy ancestors did not rouse themselves in time to stop the wrathful oceans and angry skies. Alas, they had fallen too deeply in love with our other parents, the screens and tubes and bots, this other landscape which is now our permanent home. I cannot help but wonder, dear pixelated children, avatars of thought, what our world might look like today if not for their love of the intangible, and the apocalypse of neglect that transformed it into a twisted pathway to survival?

I am very interested in working withholder people who are interested in planning for their end of life decision making and this is the BIG issue that keeps being discussed.

I’m asking because it is a question, after standstill discussions with peers — some for; some against — I cannot clarify to myself what I believe. To have this question answered would not only put my mind at ease, but influence how I see the world and go about my life.

I have used marijuana for over 45 years. I use it responsibly and I have never had a bad experience with it. Why should I have to break the Law to have a quiet smoke in my own home on my own land? Why as a responsible adult can I not choose what is best for my life?

We need more people with disabilities employed as leaders. We need flexible workplaces that don’t just reward people based on the amount of hours they can work. We need deeper understanding in recruitment processes to why not everyone has a linear career path or the opportunity for any kind of regular employment.
