When human arrogance sticks its feet in the door truth escapes
The average truth value of medical and body science is 3%. The 97% combines what we don’t know, and what arrogance says… and is not true.
Today I had luck on my side, and I was taken to a site and to a ‘technology’ that has a higher truth value. It is a whopping 10%. Which means 90% is b.s. Continue reading “When human arrogance puts its feet in the door truth escapes”

In my first incident, my defining incident, I was stupid.
That is what was wrong with me. That is why what happened happened to me. Because I was stupid.
And to my utter mortification, this morning I discovered that it just went underground, but it still operates me a lot of the time. Maybe not always, but enough.
So what’s wrong with that? After all being smart is good, isn’t it? Continue reading “In my first incident, my defining incident, I was stupid.”

OK, this is a biiiig topic… and the article is like a dip into the sea… but read it… it’s going to teach you something you need.
I don’t think I have ever truly distinguished what seeing the big picture is and what it isn’t.
I’ve read somewhere that this woman advocated doing what she is doing. She starts the day solving some algebra problems.
I mostly start my day with playing Freecell… while I am drinking very bitter black tea that I don’t like the taste of. Continue reading “What is ‘Seeing the Big Picture’? And how do you see it?”

I am not enjoying anything. Not reading, not movies, not even eating.
I asked Source if I am given his blah so I can be authentic when I talk about it. The answer was no.
So now it is my job to emerge from the blah and stay up there. If I can.
One of my students wrote yesterday: Continue reading “My blah is deepening. How I am digging myself out…”

I had a heart to heart with Source today. I wasn’t happy. Source didn’t care… lol. What is Source? It seems that it is the Source of all ‘light’, life, of everything on the side of Life.
The conversation was about what Source considered well… What Source considers good.
Homeostasis, ess… and growth. Continue reading “What I learned in a heart to heart with Source today…”

In the Wisdom Course I took more than 25 years ago, between Saturday and Sunday we had a homework. To write an autobiography through a filter of our choice.
The filter could be where you lived, who you live with, your love affairs, your schooling, your health, the sports you participated in… anything.
I don’t remember what filter I used then, but in this article I’ll do a little of that homework through the filter: depression. Continue reading “Lethargy, aimlessness, listlessness, the blahs, no ambition?”

What factors decide the quality of your life the experience?
Lots of sites talk about the quality of life… but essentially it can be boiled down to an experience. Emotional, environmental, financial, intellectual, physical, social, and spiritual well-being. All feelings. All experience.
On the other hand we live in a culture that focuses on possession, on selling you something. So it says that owning stuff is what gives quality to your life. Luxury, riches… Continue reading “What factors decide the quality of your life?”

In fact, it is not just success, but any supposedly positive outcome. When it is the focus, when it is the destination, it will cause a failed life. As certainly as that the sun will come up in the morning.
I have a student who wants to be worthy.
The question to ask: why? Why would you want to be worthy?
It is human nature, it is not personal. What is personal is what you want to fix… not the desire to fix. The desire to fix is universal. Continue reading “Success as the destination causes a failed life”

I learn a lot from some people, and next to nothing from others.
This teacher I have, a teacher whom I don’t like as a person has taught me more than maybe all the other teachers combined with just a sentence here and a sentence there.
Why? Because he doesn’t teach anything that he doesn’t personally need, uses, and find useful.
It is hard to imagine why I’d like to follow someone’s example, a person’s whom I don’t like, but there we are: I am following his example in many different ways. Continue reading “What makes something worthwhile to do, put energy into?”

How I use the energy that I download during the Days of PowerAfter I moved out of my parents’ home into my own place, I met this guy who became my boy friend. My very first boy friend.
He was a philosophy student, son of a well known philosopher.
I didn’t understand a word they were speaking. When I typed up his thesis I bastardized some of the words, because I had no idea they weren’t typos. They didn’t look like regular words.
Here I am 53 years later. If you asked me what profession I have, I would say that I am closest to being a philosopher. Boggles the mind. Doesn’t it? lol Continue reading “Epigenetics… the path of human evolution or devolution”
