Now, Let’s Cut To The Chase
How much time is there remaining?
Attention please: Preparing for flight on the 22nd, this article will be split into two parts. Visualizing a safe passage and looking forward to write to you from home.
Today, focus is given on the ways to spend the night, the evening, the afternoon, noon and the morning of one’s life in a righteous way. Without wasting time, researching where the real problems that plague mankind originate from. Time should never be wasted, of course. Most generally, not. Even though the last years were particularly tough and demanding, with every new challenge arose a new solution. Many experiences with other humans led to insights into the machinations people are confronted with, or part of. A closer look reveals that there is already a significant number of folks, that are no longer willing to participate in the sordid theater of life and have instead chosen to take matters into their own hands. Doing that can both be easy and very hard at the same time. My own pondering about these subjects led me to understand that there is actually only one advisable way through life. No matter in what segment of the 24 hour analogy you can find yourself.
Based on the technical problems that have now been solved - more or less - it will be necessary to rebuild the original structure of this blog. One aspect of the personal experiences over the last years is superior in both cause and effect than any other. And since I don’t see merits is going deeper into the subject at this junction, I leave it with the remark that I consider myself “de-transitioned”. At a later point, I will enlighten you about this experience, if you so desire. For now, you could say that I am at peace, fully accepting life and eager to do what really counts in the end. Curious readers will find it easy to research any previous material, authored by me under a different name. There is a large amount of articles on the block chain that I now accept as having been the result of extreme emotional and physical hardship. The bottom view of and on life. On the other hand, this comparison with previous material will reveal the evolutionary process of the human being typing this.
Speaking of which, I did feed some of the text of “Upping To Date” into ChatGPT to critique it and it turned out to be of high quality - with the pesky little glitches like repeating a phrase, or using a style element a bit too often. The beautiful part about this lies within the critique - since there are no other human beings to critique my work. Therefor I take it, that AI likes my writings and I hope you do, too. Consider it a promise that I will however not use AI to write articles. You can be reassured that, what you read, is 100% original content - straight from the grey matter to you. AI also told me not to capitalize “You”, but to use “you” instead. What do you/You think about that?
Allow me now to continue with the main premise of this piece. Focusing on what one can really do, to break out of the chains of habitualized limitations. Number one would be to play around the imagination of a place that will be “home”. A base, a center, a root system like a mycelium - that provides for the required manifestations. When I speak here about “manifestations”, I am not talking about wishful thinking, although there is nothing wrong with that, of course. No, “manifestation” is meant here as a precursor, or pre-stage to reality. Agreed, there are negative connotations involved with the word “manifestation”, but bearing with me will clarify what I am writing about.
The above image shows the bigger picture of what I have in mind, regarding the use of the remaining time left of my life. It is supposed to be a center of various aspects of our lives. The idea was born in Findhorn, Scotland in the mid 1980’s. During our visit (a friend I hope to see today after 30 years…), what was most compelling turned out to be the way plants were treated in the foundation. The significance extended to our brothers and sisters in the Flora. To have internalized the understanding that plants are well capable to communicate with beings around them - including human beings. For decades now, has this understanding spirited my ways, guided me towards a deeper connection with the plant and animal world. The communication between different species was of particular interest. An important contribution to this field came from Ms. Dorothy McLean, who was writing about elemental beings to a broad audience, supported by the “Peace and Harmony” mindset of the 1960’s.*

Fantastic take! Thanks for guidance down the rabbit hole.

>Time should never be wasted, of course.
In my adventure of sailing from Toronto ON to Halifax NS over the late summer and early fall of this year, there was a lot of sitting and waiting to see what life presented. This lead me to come up with the line, "A big part of sailing is waiting for parts and fair weather".
One manifestation was waiting to see what crewmates were drawn to the adventure/boat/myself. As a non-overly social fellow the shear number of crew manifesting over the course of the passage was a surprising to me. Another manifestation was sitting and waiting for good weather. Five days was spent in Port Hawkesbury, alone, waiting for wind gusts to fall below 65kms/hr.
Waiting to see what life sends you is a passive action on ones part. There is no 'doing' other than exercising patience. Waiting. One may do things while they are waiting, yet waiting is generally a passive action of its own.
This brings me to wonder if time can, actually, be waisted? We seem trained to feel that if we are not 'doing something' we are wasting time. Over the course of my passage to Halifax it seemed that inaction is sometimes the wiser and more productive choice than action.
Thought to share this thought which seemed triggered by your post.
