Ffolkes,
“It is the ability to choose which makes us human.”
~~ Madeleine L’Engle, “Walking on Water” ~~
Ketchikan, Alaska, pre-invasion…
Hajime…. The choices we make always seem to turn out differently than we expect, don’t they? Identifying & making those choices is a process we seldom consider in depth, yet, it is a process critically important, to who we are, and what we can expect from Life at Large. My own choices seem to be catching up to me, as physical conditions now assume a greater portion of my attention than I have heretofore had to give. It seems, in my youth and checkered past, some of my choices have led me to where I now am, physically, which, at the moment, is rather an uncertain position, more uncertain than ever before, which tends to decrease the available choices….
That’s a bit obscure, but, at the moment, there aren’t a lot of details I can, or will share, until there is more certain information to relate. Suffice it to say, I probably won’t be around here for a stretch of time; how long remains as uncertain as my own health. I’d like to be able to say when I might return, but, at this point, I don’t have enough information on that to make any reliable prediction. So, I’ll just say this for now. I don’t want to stop writing, but, the very act of doing so is contributing to the issue, so, it will need to be curtailed, to some degree, for an unknown time…. If anyone wishes more details, or has any interest in communicating beyond the usual commentary found here, my email is available in my profile, somewhere, as well as on the side bar of my home page, & I’ll be happy to answer any queries via that venue…
For now, I’m just going to bid thee all a temporary (hopefully) farewell, with the added hope that life continues to proceed along acceptable lines, for all of y’all… Me, I’m going to be following a rather strict regimen of cannabinoid consumption in large doses, to help me heal whatever is going on. It seems to work on everything we’ve tried it on, so, I’m hopeful it will do so for me. In the meantime, stay alert, & stay loose. It’s all going to change, and rapidly, starting soon, so, you’ll need all the chutzpah you can manage to display…. I’m outta here, for now….
Normally, at this point, I’d say “Shall we Pearl?”…. today, I’ll just say, see ya later, ffolkes

Y’all take care out there,
and May the Metaphorse be with you;
Blessed Be, dearest Carole, Mark,Theresa, & Richy
and everyone else, too…
When I works, I works hard.
When I sits, I sits loose.
When I thinks, I falls asleep.
Which is Why….
Sometimes I sits and thinks,
and sometimes,
I just sits.

“It is the ability to choose which makes us human.”
~~ Madeleine L’Engle, “Walking on Water” ~~
And sAdly this same neo-cortical
pARt of miNd/BoDy alLows
us to
choose
dARk
over
liGht
and insanely
painful things if the
social group in group
think say let’s do ‘this’ now
iF you wanna Stay (i.e.. FGM
cultural Fe/male Genital Mutilation)
yes.. A pARt of the group and historically
have the benefit of shared subsistence..
including shelter and mates.. Oh Lord.. the
benefit of lifelong retirement.. hmm.. if that doesn’t
go away too.. and the poTenTial to set one self free
as
an
individual
in a self-actualization
that spells tRue WiLL now..
Oh Lord.. Life.. an ink blot
test and sure.. i hOld Friday WITH the
13th.. Holy and Sacred and WiN liFE that way..;)
“You live and learn. Or, you don’t live long.”
~~ Lazarus Long ~~
And sAdly2 this means in areas
where cRaP does mean survival..
you learn to do crazy shit to survive..
how ironic
the life
of
social human animal
is.. smArt is only relative
to what one feels and senses in
life and how insane iS it in even more
countries to require a 20% discount on male members
from
birth..
people don’t realize
how important that
is until they are stripped of the clothes
of culture and finAlly live free.. as much as i love
LiVinG in the United States in retirement years now that
i do not have to fit the insane norm of being stuck in a windowless
office doing mechanical cognition in personnel.. financial management..
payroll.. Information Technolgy Support..eTc.. and eventually gaining a window
then.. but additionally gaining an open door policy to assist everyone above me
and at peer level and supervise everyone on the so-called ladder below me..
30 to 130 or so folks depending on if my boss was away.. then..
yes.. tHeRE is cultural
insanity every
wHeRE one
lookS noW
as humans
are only humans
when they are in tHeir
element of what they
are even F iN
evolved
to be
namEly.. hands
on and yes feet
on and arms on and
legs on moving connecting
and creating human beings that
face to face give and share for a forAge
of life togEther and a group dance at the
end of the resource hunt and gathering day
in yes.. a naked moon lit campfire niGht that spells
one word that DAnceSinGS T O G E T H E R we stand..
divided
we
fALL..
i DancE
And SinG my
FriEnd and i truly
wish you could have
had an escape from hell
a little bit earlier.. but yes.. we
do what we can my friEnd
we live..
we
jusT
live.. as
that is what life
does.. and the ultiMate
lesSon my son taught me
in ’97 as he struggled to live for
51 days then in beyond adversity..
we just live that’s what life does.. SurViVe..
And iF aT aLL possible.. yes.. FucKinG Thrive..
most of the rest of the planets.. we see at
least.. are just cold and hot rocks..
tHeRe are Flowers
here FucKing
make
iT aLL
tHeFlowER..
FucK yes.. make
THE FloWeR God.. the
whoLe FucKinG EnChildA
and Breathe iT aLL iN.. sMILes
mY FriEnd.. it works for me and that
pARt of culture as far as indigenous
PANtheistic leaninG ones makes total FucKinG comMon
sense.. for MaKinG this A Garden of Eden NoW over A
F IN TruMpTowercoNcretejungle..
with a God no one can see..
or touch
or
smell
or even
FucKinG
eat now like
Bread and Water..
without FucKinG
paying for
God..
including
a grain of
FucKinG
sand to
live OwN..
FucKinG
Land Lord
God owners noW..
is most all that ShiT..
is.. i free THE God iN me..
and no longer pay a ‘price’ to live..
So.. See ya when

has been at leasT aLL ‘miNe’..
iN GiVinG shArinG waY aLL FReED..;)
Ah, Fred… no worries, mate. I’ll be back, eventually. And, I haven’t been avoiding, or boycotting your comments; just haven’t been up to keeping up. I haven’t been going to anyone’s sites as I usually do… But, I WILL be better, and will be back again. I’ll, no doubt, have to dive in now and then, to take the edge off my angst, at least… and I have no intention of losing track of those ffolkes I’ve become close to…. Besides, all my efforts are turned toward getting well enough, on ALL levels of my life, so I can travel when & where I wish to go, including Florida, where I have (now), at least 2 relatives, and a dancing fool to visit before too much longer passes, & travel becomes problematic for us all (count on it; times will be changing…)…
Any who, you dance on, & I’ll be by, or in & out with comments, here and there….
See ya, my friend….
Love
gigoid
Haha.. my friEnd.. gigoid.. i’Ve surely
BeeN and sTiLL aM dancing my ass off
(although the muscles are getting
bigger.. hehe.. as photos indicate)..
as well as writing my fingers on and
on and word press is acting
a little cooky as i didn’t get
a notification of your
comment
here
but never
the less no problem
friEnd.. i understand
the trials and tribulations
of life all too well and never
expect anything out of life but
to keep DanCinG and SinGinG
no matter what so far so good
it works for now and since now
is all tHeRe is that’s enough mY friEnd..:)
