7 Layer Dip + Fourth Dimensions

By -
The layering of thoughts is so serenely chaotic.  On one hand, it leaves no room for space, or at least space utilized for the utilization of not (what is space? Space.).  On the other, it perhaps connects the many Electrons across this void of Time into which a thought may take place.  As time continues in a forward-like state of motion, there seems a slight conundrum of this order: without a Past, there would not exist a Future.  In the Present arena of Time, where we now undolefully resign our habitat of attention, we ARE.  We are Being.  (From the same strain of thought as this delightful word that most recently greeted me, “Isness”, it is most definitely remote, I really do love it).  As we are thinking on the Future, hopefully not for extended durations of this H.G. Wells Time Machine as it usually takes us (why must the Eloi always beg of us so?), we suddenly become inhibited with a Past…for it must carry over, pass by, in order for us to think on the Future.  Our Present is massacred, or put on hold (“In the Blink of an Eye”….tell me, what is sleep…what is death…??), and transitioned into the Past since we no longer are experiencing it.  Can this be so?  A Present  moment simply cannot BE if we are not IN it.

Furthermore…the layering of thoughts that this bafflement creates within our minds (or at least us Country Mice that doth not hail from the Big Apple where traffic is like Trees), may not necessarily be of needed descent.  Now, I have talked most specifically of the thoughts between thoughts…think of these as the shadows that a bridge creates as the smooth water slips slowly below.  The layering of our thoughts, shifted into the brutal chaos of turning our Present moment into the Past without it even existing would be the traffic on the bridge above…what nuisance this traffic contains, but oh what a brilliant shutter it does paint to the cross-sectioned Eye of the beholder.  Carry On Electrons.  I do say Carry On.

To Become a "Light"er Traveler

I have always fancied at the notion of being a one-suitcase kind of Journeywoman.  One backpack complete with passport, cash, a few random clothes and underwear, something to read and a small snack and water for sustenance and you are Off to quite an array of destinations- healthy blood sugar levels included.  But of course, that's never how it used to work with me (or most women for that matter).  Boy do I have news for you...as I was classicly cruising down Keahole Drive with a recently purchased pineapple sticking discontortantly out of my backpack as my designed-for-all-island-wear sundress (my one answer to random clothes that work well in warm-weather climates...you can honestly wear them ANYWHERE that requires clothing) was flittering up around my the tops of my knees, I realized, looking down at the Nalgene crammed in the registration compartment of my 'Ped' and feeling the weight of everything (save a scoop of laundry deter...

Bus 142: Alaska Bound, Alaska Found

In Christianity, the beginning of Time was birthed by the choice of man; man choosing knowledge, choosing power over the own Creation of his soul.   As this choice was made, the closing of our spiritual eyes and the beginning of Time became our reality.   Thus Time, or “a dimension in which events can be ordered from the past through the present to the future” was born.   We must wonder what the world looks like without the restrictions of Time… Spiritual leaders who have originated in all walks of life, such as Jesus, Moses, Buddha, Krishna, and countless others, allow us to realize the immensity in which life connects itself to all other life.   (There must be a reason why all good ideas are repeated over and over and over again through classic literature, theatre, motion picture, our own minds…they have always, and will always Exists.   We in turn are only able to look at them in different groupings, different light, different Time.   This is why...

"Way of the Warrior"

By -
In the Samurai’s Bushido, or “Way of the Warrior”, nobility was a way of life.   Emphasizing “frugality, loyalty, martial arts mastery, and honor unto death” were the main characteristics for this moral code.   (“When the cause is great, victory is that much sweeter”).   This chivalric philosophy, stemming from Zen Buddhism and Confucianism, seems to balance Self Discipline and a Freedom of the Mind with a hard ease.   Honor above all else .   In this day and age, I like to believe that the Samurai’s Bushido can still be applied to modern philosophy.    But I feel we must first define what it is that we are actually fighting for.   (For the Samurai it was the right to protect their people, to give loyalty to their master and to adhere to their way of life.   For us- (should we even have to pause to think about this answer?)?) When a Samurai became disloyal to the Bushido it was punishable by death.   One sword plunge into th...
