Approaching Zero

Thinking Like God Thinks

In the vast expanse of time, where does “never having happened yet” become “never gonna happen”?

The choices we make depend on how we gather, analyze, weigh, and rank information. In the U.S., there has been a tendency to rely on others to interpret facts rather than doing the work ourselves. This has led to the widespread adoption of sources with political, economic, social, or religious biases.

Tolerance. Acceptance. Love. Respect.

Tolerance. Acceptance. Love. Respect. Those are not right wing or left wing behaviors. They are central to humanity. Without them we are destroying the best parts of us.

Tribal Behavior

It’s “not like us” tribal shit that is fucking up the world. People wanting everyone else to be like them and hating those who aren’t… Why can’t the world see that? The knife cuts both ways. There is no one answer that fits everyone.

Background Music

The whole day has felt like background music, with nothing in the foreground.

Music pats on my soul.

When TV’s were furniture

Just read a reference to “when TVs were furniture”. My mind then walked straight down memory lane to my childhood in the late 50’s and 60’s.

Father’s Day 2023

Jack was a wonderful father. I remember him today in his prime, at his best, when he mattered most to those he loved, when he could still pretend he liked me. He loved me deeply, but I knew I was a disappointment to him. He was the bar I could not reach. Thinking of you today, Dad. I love you.

Is it still a nap if you dream?

Birth

There is a moment when your pain, hurts, and failures stop being events and start being your life. They are reborn into that which defines you. It is when you truly see who you are.
