Smiles; Just a Quick Note; Fnord.

You are Not the only one in This Audience;

Large or Small as A Receptor.

And I dam sure wasn't directing this at you, Specifically;
but tHere's still Hope wHere tHere is Love That's Real
and Not
just
A
Four, Five or Six Letter Word of 'Stuff' starting with L or J or S;
Dude, not to get too far off Topic now but as I remember now
You've Suggested here in the past that Jesus is a Real Dude where
the Scientific Evidence Conclusively Suggests that's Just a Story
And very little of him left still exists in Actual Story Form
where the Story now is More Real Than the real Human
then; so it seems you are the one here who believes
in the Super Natural while i Follow Science Closer
than you in this way.
And sure as far as
that Story goes,
never
the less;
A Great one to still
Relate for Real too
and sure, this one too
for
me at least.

why you make

If you can't impress them with content, dazzle them with construction.

Yep! That format might have worked for e.e.cummings, but it just makes my eyes hurt.

Smiles, thanks for asking.
It's Like Magic and Even the
Supernatural for those who
Cannot Relate; Art Flows
outside
of
what
most Folks
See as Ration
when original at least.

But sure, I can Force myself to Write in A Straight Lines but it doesn't FEEL like Heaven; and i ain't going back to HELL..;)

In other Words, I don't
Literally Write the Shape;
I Metaphorically Feel and
Sense it Beyond all Words, specifically..;)

But hey; that's the Beauty of NeuroDiversity; Something New And F in Refreshing at least to me.

Again, Thanks for the Reciprocal Communication in Fashion of Wonder, instead of ButtHurt Confusion..;)

The Difference in some of us is; We don't give up trying to figure it All out; And Then we Just Do It New With No Fear.

And Per the other concern related, by that 'other' person; Jesus F in Christ, if it Hurts to Look at it than Just Don't Look; unless one can't help themselves, at least and or most.

"There are more things in Heaven and Earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of in your philosophy." (William Shakespeare, Hamlet)
What whould our life be without our phantasie? :flower:

If I walk through a city there are lot of walls mostly dirty and white or grey or brown. But I can start to imagine that they are full of flowers which grow anywhere on the walls and make them beautiful, friendly and colorful. This isn't difficult to imagine and as soon as I start to imagine that kind of stuff the walls stop to be dirty and grey and start to look much more friendly and nice and full of flowers to me. :flower: :flower: :flower: But my imagination does only change my mind and not the walls as they are. Even if my imagination makes them more beautiful and friendly it's not reality and the walls stay as they are. I don't want to miss my phantasy but if I start to believe that the flowers are a real thing I start to have really a big problem. :wink: :sunny:

SMiles,"SaveFerris"; You are Very Welcome and Speaking of "Ferris" that is one of my all time
Favorite Movies as that applies to Overall Life and the Joy of Spontaneous
Creativity in the Moment of Life; the Real Present Now which is truly
A Real Magic in Life that is also for all practical Intents and Purposes
Super-Natural for those who have Yet to come
to a Place of Joy in Novelty of Life
like this and for me at least; there
is also "Forrest Gump", where the Lesson there is; it's
no so much about IQ; but Will and Never Giving up and Plugging
Along at Whatever one is Doing Their Best to Improve about Life; True,
with Enough Ping Pong Practice one might Become a Champion Ping Pong
Player too regardless of Higher IQ; making a Mark in the Record Books for Years to still come.
Sure; Dance Legend is Possible too but I've already done that and there is always something new to do;
I Believe in a Mix of
both; yes, 'Ferris' and
'Forrest' too as it's true just
Replace a U with an R in Austistic
and with Enough Epigenetic and Neuroplastic
Real Magic one Moves from AUtistic to ARtistic as the
'Other Side of the Mind' is more Fully Engaged in Metaphor
of Social Empathic Artistic Mind versus Systemizing Science Reason Mind;
the best
of both
Worlds
is the Magic
that Works for me, best.
I didn't come here to be Average; i came here to Just Be me;
And Like My Wife says, "You Are Something; But i'm not Quite Sure What";
Success
is
what
that Says
to me at Highest
Levels of Creativity And Just Doing it now;
On top of that every Novel way of Life, and not just
in words in all we Do from Steps of Dance through Words of Song,
actually according to Science as Long as it is done in a Positive Novel Way
Lights us up in almost innumerable new connections from Head to Toe like A Better Feel/Sense Good Christmas
Tree that is more than Super Natural for we can and will reach out and touch it as us now real.
Smiles, my Friend;
i'm just an Ocean and
These are my Waves as the
Ocean and Its Waves, one and same and different too;
as every Drop of Water within need not offer a Reason for Being now.
in one other Word;
i am A Beach
as i move far far far
away from the other Spelling of B88CH;
Or 'the Principle' of that School 'Ferris' went to;
who I must admit, kind of reminded me of me;
Before i grew into more of me as Beach.
When Butterflies come out
of Cocoons that's
Magic for
those
who have not
Forgotten the eyes of A Creative Child.

i.e. Near death experience/astral travel/past life regression accounts, stories of altered states of consciousness via the use of psychedelics and ayahuasca, consciousness studies, quantum theory, theology, Eckhart Tolle's books and speaking engagements, Duncan Trussell's podcasts on such, etc.

How about you? I would love to know of your thoughts, ideology on such matters and to get recommendations regarding it- books, podcasts, websites, articles... all the information :)!


i find that sort of stuff interesting and entertaining. i like listening to the cost to cost radio show that have guests talking about things like remote viewing, fringe science, the paranormal and so on. and i watch videos of that nature. i am too much of a cynic to truly believe in most of it, but i do like to entertain it in my mind.

Yeah, when I performed* readings at my cousin's New Age shop, there was a sign on the wall that stated "For Entertainment Purposes Only".

And another that stated "30 Minute Reading: $20 (Taxes not included)".


(* - "Performed" is the key word :wink: )

Me too. They're great places to find handicrafts, esoterica, and off-beat knick-knacks.

Like this monkey's paw, for instance...

Thanks for the information Bether3. I will be sure to check out the book. I have been watching a lot of documentaries about this subject lately and I feel as if I should keep an open mind.

Good luck with your explorations!
