We may have fewer things under our control than we’d prefer, but not none. Here are some of the things I managed make happen today.
This breakfast of beef ribs I started to make happen the afternoon before so they could slow roast all night. Finished under the broiler with butter to give a nice crust. Fresh guacamole, aged chili.
Lady Luck saddled up.
Mushroom found along the Blue Ridge Parkway.
Lone Bald Overlook.
UPDATE:
Stone sculpture of a mushroom. The base stone was quite challenging, but I finally managed to lift and carry it.
All artists work better with imposed limitations. Crafting a life can be an artistic form.
ReplyDeleteThat’s certainly true of poets. It’s not guaranteed that every poem written according to a stricter form will be better than poems written in looser ones, but there’s definitely positive correlation on average.
ReplyDeleteThe bike, the gladius, and then the mushroom.... hmmm. Some northern folk were known to eat those before battle. Were you looking for a riot to quell?

One never knows what one may find upon the road.
That looks like a good day.

I heard that first one was disputed by the PD, not that I trust them.

I don’t know what the second one is even supposed to mean.

Yes, I was kinetically reminded of that a few days ago.
Fortunately the advice had been taken to heart and the outcome bloodless.
I predict that humanity's future has never been brighter. (I Know right, what is Ymar up to now)
ReplyDeleteHowever, you have to first undergo a stage of transformation, letting ago, and dealing with the shadows, the repressed and hidden parts of humanity, including America. If you all here can survive that (key word, survive), then something interesting will happen later.
Call it a utopia, or the Second Coming, hard to say given human translation effects are erroneous.
Humanity has a choice. Suffer or Awaken.
There is no fence to sit on and watch what is going on. Even I have to take the field now.
There is no part of the world that will remain unaffected by the Second Stage,3rd Stage. 4th Stage, of the Divine Plan.
Sure, the Cabal has their plans and stages, just look at these insurgencies. But, they are only human and use human power, not Divine power. Not yet at least.

But Trum is correct. The Best is Yet to come. Technologies and age reversal, analogous to the 1000 year reign of peace. Hard to imagine? As with all divine messages, it is nearly impossible to imagine and accept... now.

ReplyDeleteThere are translation and tradition problems with organized religion, as well as nations like Japan, but at their core, they have something useful.

Fate draws near. The Final War of humanity is here. In truth the Battle has already been joined.
