Being very sick is very humbling. Making it 3 or 4 seasons on a 3 or 4 year old flu shot, it is inevitable. When that flu arrives it knocks out the energy and takes all inward focus to make it minute by minute. If you have begun to make a habit of dropping by here now and again for a fresh take on today's reality, sorry for the 5 day absence. It was unavoidable.
Focus is powerful. Cranking up this entry in front of Kill Bill 2, determination becomes the signature send off for a week of pounding headaches, body discomfort that makes even lying down hurt; but complaining is not an option. Part of the journey is hearing and seeing the stories of real suffering. It is painful and real and the lessons run deep.
How to escape that reality. How to forge a life built on the truth of how bad and good it can be with being jaded. Faith seems like the age old tradition amongst millennia of humanoids to deal with the unthinkable. But why set faith outside of self? Why not believe we shall overcome on the strength of the mind we are born with, the DNA handed down so many fold it is impossible to know how deep it runs.
Yes, the river runs deep. To understand the depth and breadth you go back to the beginning. And a interesting tidbit about the beginning. The A #1 question arises. How did the chaos of the moment before the beginning of time, become the moment at the beginning of time. A man tells me he knows an answer and has written a book about it and is looking for a publisher. At 80, his desire isn't wealth and fame, it is about adding his ideas to the discussion.
Interesting reading that would be. You know anybody that's in the business? Let's get it in front of someone who might say, "we can sell a bunch of those books."
