Magic Continues to Exist in This World

Magic continues to exist in this world, taking on many forms. That which is in our minds, our hearts, our dreams... The contents which are invisible within us, we continue to find ways to manifest them in the concrete world in a manner felt and experienced by the living. All that we are able to create is evidence of the Magic that continues to exist in our world. We are all continually manifesting something within this world based on our inner experience.

Shaping Thought To Align with My Mental Reality: Fulfilling, Enjoyable, Enriching

Over the years I realize the same action can be done with various frames of mind. For the sake of motivation, I find it best to shape thoughts or frame of reference in a manner which that lines us best with my own mental reality, my home base or territory where my mind tends to reside. I find going too far outside of the bounds of what I consider my core will result in massive amounts of resistance from within.

I find anything deemed compulsory, or the use of fear, guilt, embarrassment, and shame results in a state where I am at constant odds with myself. The use of force, or anything that goes against my perceive sense of autonomy will result in backlash. It is best if I can frame an action in a manner where I can clearly identity a sense of fulfillment from engaging in the action. If I believe that an action will ultimately add enrichment to my life, I am more willing. If I can find something within the action that I find enjoyable (it could be the fun from the challenge or exploration, it can be the pleasure of doing the thing itself, it can be how I feel during or after, etc) I am going to want to continually engage, seeking more enjoyment each time.

Overall I find I am so locked into my fishbowl that I have to find ways of dealing with my fishbowl. I have to adapt to the foundation of what is already there in order to create new pathways and changes.

No Immunity to Novel Viruses

I guess this is what it must have been like for native populations who lacked exposure and immunity to virus brought over from people from foreign lands... The whole world now gets to feel Vulnerable to a novel virus that no one has been exposed to before...

Spinning and Weaving Stories

Talking heads, spinning and weaving stories
So that they may fall into a cushioned web
A cushioned web of blissful delusion
Sprawled out with the smuggest of smiles
Comforted by feelings of beliefs of being right

Cold Uncomfortable Rain

Rain can be very cold and very uncomfortable.... Yet the rain is vital for growth

The Shape of Thought

This malleable but not malleable thing
Affecting all that was, all that is, and all that will be
Sending us through the paths of time:
The Shape of Thought

Momentum Based Motivation

The state or cycle I am currently in will greatly influence what is likely to happen in the next moment, the next hour, the next day, etc... until the cycle plays out to completion. Altering the current inertial state can help movement spiral in one direction or another...
