Sans Ambergris….
Hajime…. No, sorry, it’s really not all that obscure, if one has a clue as to what I meant by the above caption, showing George Salmon, Provost of Trinity College, Dublin, who oversaw its passage into the 20th century. Actually, I just like the picture, because it reminds me of my trip there. The ambergris came to mind when I recalled the habits of grooming & hygiene among the general run of people of that period in history, before indoor plumbing became a common fixture in society. That, by the way, is the clue….
Ambergris, for those who don’t know, is an ingredient used in making perfume; it comes from whales, sadly, which were becoming commonly used for their commercial products in that era. One living in cities of the time needed to develop a calloused attitude toward odious fumes in the air, much of it from the people…. Hence, sans ambergris describes most of the urban populace, all but those who indulged in such methods as perfume to mask their ‘aura’….
Not bad, altogether. Two paragraphs of completely purposeless drivel, complete with sarcasm, veiled, vaguely insulting insinuations, and, a travelogue, all in one place. I’ll take it, and move on to more cogent matters, any time now. Possibly. Or, this could go on for some time, until my hips or lower back stab me, or Leelu demands play time.
Shall we pearl?….

Whale puke….and worth bunches….go figure?
So how is things going my friend….feeling a little better? chuq
Yes/no/maybe…. Physically, much better; I’m able to sit much better for a time. Still keep falling down rabbit holes, though…. It’s percolating poetry in there, I think… or, finding my ultimate insanity face…. Hard to say what will fix it; acing a few oligarchs would help, I’m sure, but, ammunition is getting expensive….
As you see, still a lot of angst/turmoil in there…but, I’m getting there, bit by bit…& thanks for asking, bro….
I’ll try to get by later….

You are welcome…I like to keep up with my regulars….wishing you well my friend….chuq

Nature is God..
only
human
is fool
enough
not to
see the Law of this..
in practical ways of course..
all seeing as all that is we see..
feel.. hear.. touch.. smell taste..
and so much
more
or less..
depending on
how far we can
separate ourselves
from more that we are
evolved to be.. alive.. thriving
or not.. depending on how well
we understand this God as Nature
that lives as all existence or don’t..
as within us.. inside.. outside.. above..
so below.. and all around for @lEAst now..
tHeRe is no escape
but illusions
that are
equally
pArt oF
dArk as
NaTuRe GoD sAme..
and like Enigma says..
matters not if one believes
or not.. there is bi escaping the
Laws oF God and Nature same
within we sAme as pARt oF wHole..
but oh.. how hard ignorant human cultures
have worked to do this.. from tearing foreskins
off babies.. to separate them from the other apes..
to becoming tools more than flesh and blood empathy
and compassion in moving.. connecting.. creating ways..
Karma is real.. it’s really simple.. obey nature or pay the consequence..
understand
nature within..
inside.. outside..
above.. so below
and all around.. and survive
and thrive for those who have not
forgotten innate.. instinct and intuition
and the genetic memory to do just that..
a fluid intelligence this is and not crystallized alone..
as human labels that reduce the size of God all that is..
in illusion
of course
as small
is as real as large
for both the grain of sand
and an avalanche of LoVe..
AnyWay..
Enigma
gets it..
not people do
these days.. lost
in a matrix of
Nature

“Jesus died too soon.
If he had lived to my age he would
have repudiated his doctrine.”
~~ Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche ~~
Nietzsche was missing
a very important
pArt oF
liFe..
at least..
later iN
liFe..
Love..
and other
colorful
emotions
that inspire
human life..
as social
empathic
cognition
intelligence
as well then..
beyond Standard
IQ measures of books..
some folks
never get it
or give it.. and
end up going basically ‘humanely insane’..
the story is as old as hiStory.. and beYond..
and some
who
have lived
a life in both/’tween
places.. hell.. purgatory..
and heaven.. liFe.. understand Jesus..
what Jesus.. it’s just a created then and now
real human archetype of both the dArkness and
liGht that lives as human being.. love your
enemy hate your mommy and daddy and
sisters and brothers and children if they
don’t do what you say.. same Luke 14:26..
sAMe FucKinG hUman different story.. Now..
dArk
and liGht
humanity
in all sHades
of grey as anger.. fear and hate
dARk and colors hue hope and joy..
oF Love liGht.. either live liGht or die dArk..
or the
‘tween
purgatory life..
and sadly for some..
there is no choice at all
as some are born without
ever gaining an ability to love.. aT aLL..
as far as science shows now@leASt2..:)

Yes.. as science illustrates
nicely now.. there are two kinds
of intelligence.. Mechanical Cognition
and Social Empathic Cognition.. in general.. use
one solely and the other pipe withers away…
School.. rarely now teaches
Social Empathic Cognition..
or even work
that has
no
human..
touch
and feel..
Keep making those
good grades.. study
hard.. get rid of physical
education and no longer play
with other children.. as art of HeARt
and lengthen the school day if you
can from 8 to 5pm.. and.. raise your
kids with electronic devices.. and pay

people can/will no longer
even connect to each other
iN Real Flesh and Blood Life..
And next thing ya know and feel..
youth in Japan.. no longer interested
in the ‘Wild thing’ with each other way
past the age of puberty.. into young adult
hood.. Dogs replace children.. and Robot
dogs replace the flesh and blood warm
and fuzzies.. and sure.. love a
car and a home..
and
a smart
phone too..
forget about
human and
God as
human
too.. as
flesh and blood
moving.. connecting
and creating star dust vibrant alive..
and thriving.. in the ‘old days’ of HeARt.. as liFe..:)

Freddie and I agree, intimately.
I believe Anais only speaks of the charletons who believe their existence is the only one which matters, the narcissistic sociopaths with no empathy amongst the baggage they wish everyone in their sphere to carry on the sole basis proximity presumes sympathetic servitude.
In your current and detestable state of funk and malaise, I am grateful for the pearls sans political effluvium.

It doesn’t surprise me at all you and Fred agree closely; he’s your closest male clone, as far as I can tell, in terms of how fast and far his mind travels….
I agree about the subhumans who use religion/ignorance as their weapon of choice…
LOL! Good. That means my decision to quit ranting, mostly, is the right one… See my other comment response, on the 29th….
Okay… that’s all I’ve got today… Later, love
