Most people experience stress and suffer from it
Stress is your body’s way of responding to any kind of demand or threat. When you feel threatened, your nervous system responds by releasing a flood of stress hormones, including adrenaline and cortisol, which rouse the body for emergency action.
You probably think that stress is the same for everyone, that stress is a physical reality, but it doesn’t seem to be that way.
There is no such thing as stress. Stress only exists when someone says so: it is a lot like most people we deal and struggle with in life: made up by humans. Not real…

I watched yet another movie about Alan Turing and how his machine won the war against Nazi Germany. I would not be around without him. And you would live a totally different life… The book (and the Amazon series) The Man in the High Castle approximates… I am in awe. With what he did, with who he was, with genius winning, with goodness winning. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8QyVZrV3d3o Your story can be your personal story. Telling what happened from your personal point of view. No creativity is required: it’s already applied generously. Why? How? Anything that happened is turned into words… and words, whenever applied, create a story, a story line, an interpretation. Filters added creatively… Skewed. Your story can be the story of your heritage. No matter how you tell this story: it is filtered through opinions, beliefs, and other filters. You think a story tells something about the past. But a story tells your future: reliabl There is a part in the introduction where you attempt to distinguish for people that most of what’s knowable for a human: you don’t know. Moreover: you don’t know what you don’t know. Then you ask a simple question: Can you give me an example of what you don’t know that you don’t know? In most groups there is at least one person who tries… Everybody laughs… because the answer to that question can only be: I don’t have an example… You can give an example of what you used to not know but now know… but that is an answer to a different question. Now, one of the beauties of reading is finding stuff that you didn’t know that you didn’t kn During shopping. Is a fruit bowl worth the extra $3? It was 9.95, and it’s now 12.95… she says, and I have no idea how to answer. She has no idea what the weight of the fruit is, what the fruit would cost if you bought it and chopped it up yourself. Just the question, out of context… is it worth it? So what the heck is really this phenomenon: lazy, that is not lazy at all… but what is it really, if it is not actually lazy? The problem with language, any language, is this: words don’t mean the And my favorite activities… you could guess, are when I can tear down the curtain… and actually show the naked reality of things… I find delight in it. I used to be a dreamer, an escape artist, an avoider. I saw reality so distasteful, myself so unattractive and unbecoming, that I went into daydreaming, and fantasizing, and imagery to find solace. This is an article I snatched from the New York Times… What you don’t know is this: you teach your children to color inside the lines, never experiment, never make mistakes, to live in fear, and to experience little. To not even experience what they experience. To be little soldiers that will make you look good, while you attempt to live your life and give as little attention to the kids as you can. Hell on earth… One one hand you are protective, on the other you neglect them… And then you fell guilty. Just look back at your childhood. You are stunted, and your children are stunted. This article explains some of why… some, not all. In the article of my own that I will publish today (it’s not ready yet) I will add some more clarity. Caring for children shouldn’t be like carpentry, with a finished product in mind. We should grow our children, like gardeners

How addicted are you to your cell phone? The real answer may surprise you. “Removed” is an awesome photo project by American photographer Eric Pickergill that highlights our horrib We each want to be unique, special, one of a kind. At the same time we want to be able to pigeonhole ourselves, so we can know how we are, so we can know what to eat, or what to pursue in life. His name was Robert Hartman. His experience with evil uniquely qualified him to set out to deal with the age long question: what is evil, what is good? He took on himself to define good… the strait and narrow. Many philosophers failed in that: after all the strait and narrow is delineated by the land that encloses it, not by itself… But he succeeded.
The ability to be in awe… how will it matter for your life?

The story. Your story. It is either inspiring or it is depressing…
The story. Your story. It is either inspiring or it is depressing… either way it’s the context of your life What you don’t know that you don’t know is making you fail

There is laziness and then there is lazy-ness. Is lazy learned helplessness?
This laziness thing came up again today. Live like a White Peacock… do things for the love of doing things…
I love reading. My favorite books tear down the proverbial curtain of the Wizard of Oz.
