“If with a pure
mind a person speaks or acts, happiness follows
him like his never-departing shadow.”
“Mind precedes all mental states. Mind is their chief; they are all mind-wrought. If with an impure mind a person speaks or acts suffering follows him like the wheel that follows the foot of the ox.”
Many Tibetan monks used Lotus seeds for their malas
What Is a Mala?
A mala may be known as a beaded necklace which is used by monks to count their breaths, or, more accurately, to maintain focus while meditating.
How Does A Mala Work?
A Mala is a beaded necklace composed of 108 beads, divided into 4 sections. One bead is held between the meditator’s fingers to indicate one entire breath – in and out. After the out breath, the fingers move to the next bead, and the practitioner repeats that process.
This process is the perfect way to maintain focus on the meditation at hand.… When our mind wanders off, our fingers switch to another bead, and we come back to our focus.
The average meditation session lasts about 45 minutes, which accounts for 2 sections of those beads.
Dividing the sections are, “Focus Beads,” which are larger beads- different form the rest in size and texture, to bring the practitioner back to the original focus, or mantra, of the meditation. This is done because the mind easily wanders off and drifts throughout the meditation; so the larger beads remind the meditator to come back to the original focus.
Most meditators cannot sit for an entire session of the 108 beads.
One section is comprised of 27 beads, which usually takes about 27 minutes to get through. Two sections of beads usually equals 45 minutes of meditation.
Many Tibetan monks used Lotus seeds for their malas. Lotus seeds start out as white, and, overtime, they turn black from usage. That being said, anybody wearing a lotus seed mala which is Black is a very, very well conditioned practitioner!
The three bottom beads of the mala have more meaning, which I will describe at a later date.

I went and had lunch with Rebecca today. We met at Cody’s where she introduced me to, her, “work husband,” …. Caleb, I think that;s what his name is; but I know that I am wrong about that. I am sure it starts with a, “C,”.
We had a bland conversation, peppered- over by and uncontainable excitement of not having seen each other at Deleware Park about 22 years!
The expectation to expel the excitement of the other side did not come to fruition, as there simply was not enough time to re-hash, or to make-known exactly how exasperated by happiness we were to be in each other’s company again after all these years!
How a man bars his arrogance from his mannerisms while climbing up this Tower of Babble as an hourly challenge (these days,) is a phenomenal understanding!
Everybody projects their best, “self,” out to the rest of the world. We attempt to mold people’s expectations of us according to the fabrications in our heads, (or fabrications of expectations which we deem to exist in other people’s heads about us).
This as a natural instinct in response to the ever-changing minds of the other humans around us. It is a social construct.
Most People are NOT Like Me.
I do not fit into that social construct. I have lost the expectations I had of myself when I was younger; and I have been disappointed, time and time again, when other people do not live-up to their word or change their expectations of me.
Therefore, I have lost, not only the expectations I used to harbor of other people, but I have also relinquished my interests in the former expectations which I had relegated myself to.
Call That A Mid-Life Crisis If You Want, But I Call It An After-Mid-Life-Crisis-Hump!
I have less expectations of myself and nearly zero expectation of other people. When a person has no expectations of himself or the people around him, that person does not respond to other people in the ways which everybody else typically projects their personalities out into the world.
The person of less expectation exercises apathy in a genuine way (“The True, ‘Me’!”).
This way is different from most peoples’, because most people view, “apathy,” simply as being, “un-caring,” or, “not emotionally affected by a situation”.
However, to a person who has experienced trauma repeatedly throughout their lives, their type of, “apathy,” is completely different from the average person’s apathy!
As for the last kid being pointed at and laughed at because he is the last one picked for kick-ball, traumatized people have felt and understand what is going through that kid’s head! Therefore, our apathy is not for the kid who’s picked last, but for the lack of love from those people who have picked the kid last!
They lack love for themselves more than they lack love for others; and that is what I experience apathy for!
I am much different from the finger pointers and those laughers- they who chose the poor kid to be last!
Ironically, for that ^, (their own actions,) I am shunned from their social construct!
Why Aren’t Most People Like Me?
When you do a job better than expectations or do something nice for (certain,) people, (these days,) most People expect you to expect some sort of overly-inflated return for that kindness.
Therefore, it is, now, normal to, “instinctively,” refrain from, “going that extra mile;” or, “lending an extra ear,” to a stranger in need!
For me, apathy has set-in. Survival instinct compels me to suppress my being aware of all of which I am aware of, (dictionary definition of, “cognitive dissonance”).
More and more, as people around me bury their heads in their phones or are so encumbered by all of their time and their spiritual energy being commandeered by their work, do not read the laws which are bing passed right now.
They are not reading the text of the papers which the House of Representatives and the Senate, then, the President are voting into law. …. Does this concern me? …. No. …
It is shit which ends up with me serving you a Shit-Sandwich, butt which is something which I do! Due to the last two sentences, I just said, “do due!”!!!
“Group mentality is the monarchy of the new era, and freedom is the new terrorist against consciousness expansion.”
The only danger we face in life is acceptance of any way other than the way of the individual. As a doormat cannot wipe its own feet on itself, the common man can only be common when he accepts the norm.
Group mentality is the monarchy of the new era, and freedom is the new terrorist against positive consciousness expansion. The way to change reality is to Be the change within one’s own, individual mind.
Chip Van Hassel
We will never convince the people as a group; we can only convince the people by being an example for the group to follow.
To follow the group is to be a lemming, jumping off of the cliff.
To accept the common man's reality is an individual choice to sleep.
To awaken, is the greater energy, tapped-in to by free thought and purposeful action.
Wealth can only be distributed when there is a definition of, “wealth”. Distribution only occurs when there are those who distribute.
Subtract “wealth,” from the equation; and subtract distribution from common man’s mentality, and the true answer becomes screamingly apparent.
Modern man- the evolutionary betrayer.
Individuals who are free thinkers will be ridiculed by their current peers, only to be recognized for their genius long, long after their deaths.
Society is never ready for the truth, but Positive thought is always ready for society.
The more you expect from this world, the less you will receive.
The less you expect from this world, the more you will understand.

Out of Few Come Many
Last night was not too cold.
The wind has become less aggressive as the brisk winter-front dusts northern Florida and Louisiana with snow!
Bible Verse:
A pastor once told the congregation to, “Journalize the Bible!” I understood what he meant. I have simply not done that. It does, though, say, in PROVERBS,
“Do not envy the wicked, do not desire their company; for their hearts plot violence, and their lips talk about making trouble. By wisdom a house is built, and through understanding it is established; through knowledge its rooms are filled with rare and beautiful treasures.
The wise prevail through great power, and those who have knowledge muster their strength.
Surely you need guidance to wage war, and victory is won through many advisers.”
Many people in the horse racing business are always plotting; … making trouble! Usually, it is the pencil pushers, the desk jockeys and the clipboard carriers who make the trouble.
The reason they do this is because they are less capable than other people. Indeed, they attempt to surround theirselves with people of lower value, who lack ability, but they cannot find enough similarly incompetent people; so they plot schemes and create a haphazard environment, causing any self-respecting professional to eventually redress grievances. Thereafter, they are labeled as, “The Problem”!
Yes, the person, in this business, who points out faults with the intention of bettering the business, (as a whole,) is always the one pushed, (chased, rather,) out of the barn and treated as a complication and a difficult person, rather than being recognized as a well-thought-out proponent of the vested interests of the entire racing industry as one, whole mechanism!
Every place I have been, (most recently, Kenny McPeek’s,) every time I have put-forth the correct amount of effort to better the product and the industry, my coworkers, and, especially, the assistants and people above me, (including the trainers in many cases,) begin to chastise me and attempt to gaslight and to project upon me; because they do not understand the realm of perfection which I have already experienced, which inspires me to share it with everybody I meet for the rest of my life!
Perfection is frowned upon and shunned!
Kenny McPeek’s assistants even told me, “Yeah, every time I think I’m doing a good job, the next day, I come in, and it feels like I am just waiting to get fired! Every time I put-forth a good effort to make this place better, the people around me freak-out, and it feels like I’m just going to get fired!” (Paraphrased)
Be Advised:
That’s right, after you have been to the top, you begin to think and act differently. Your expectations of the people around you become heightened; therefore, your level of disappointment in your fellow man is heightened in congruency with that raised level of expectation!
The more you expect from this world, the less you will receive. The less you expect from this world, the more you will understand.
Me
On a Different Note:
I have not written poetry in over fifteen years. I used to write pages and pages of it when I was in my teens and early twenties! As my realizations and expectations have changed over time, so has my writing style and my reading preferences. I stay completely away from fiction. I study a lot of history, political history, Masonic shit, religious and philosophical shit as well.
I have come to understand that the Masons are the only ones who truly know history as it actually happened and that the secretes of freemasonry are merely the Truth about reality more than anything. It is not, “ha, ha,” funny that they have collectively, purposely hidden the shape of the world from their neighbors’ children, and even their grandchildren (at this juncture); yet it is funny in a peculiar way!
This, “peculiar way,” is, in fact, their intentionally refusing to know the truth and to purposely push lies that they, themselves, don’t even believe! These people know that they do not know the truth; and they are happier with being aware of their ignorance, in the stead of feeling (self)-discontent for their willful ignorance. This is the result of pure, natural stupidity!
Studies:
I admit that my most recent studies have been comprised of studying graphs of the stock market, trying to see and understand the patterns of the price fluctuations of the stocks.
My buddy, Travis, has turned $150.00 in to $1,600.00 in the last five months; and, if he cashes in 495 shares of PTLE at $14.25, he will have proved a profit of $6,903.75! …. In five months off of a one hundred and fifty dollar investment!!!
I still own 8 shares of PTLE.
I also own 1 shares of DVN, but I am down $36.00, because Robinhood charged $100.00 to transfer my account from them to Fidelity. ACTUALLY, that is a LIE! They did not charge me; what they did was, create a negative $100.00 balance, transfer that negative balance to Fidelity; then, Fidelity charged me that $100.00. …. It is all a scam! I am simply going to wait for the stock to make-up for that loss; at which point, I am going to find a more legitimate way to play the market!
I used AutoPilot to see that Nancy Pelosi purchased one million dollars of stock in Vistra Corp, tempted to buy one share with the last $190.00 I have!
Crazy, isn’t it?!
The plan is to start making money tomorrow and the next day, somehow.
I have been keeping an eye on President Donald Trump’s Executive Actions. I am entertained by the whole, horrifying deal!
If he survives the next four years, it would be a feat of security, vigilance and a testament to how capable and amazing Men are (specifically on the battle-front)!
It was the driver, Bill Greer, shooting a pneumatic pistol with his left hand:
Watch the Driver in the video below!
When Jackie tried to climb out of the back of the car, she stoped and ran away from the secret service member! She turned back around and got back into the limousine and hunched-down on the floor!
“They killed Jack”. She said. “They,” meaning the Secret Service!
Today is going to be another day of mental organization- of writing in my daily planner and notebooks; sticking post-it notes, in procrastination, in specific places in my daily planner. It is going to be an administrative day, of sorts. I am bracing for tonight’s 31 degree weather! Contemplating removing my stuff from storage; but, knowing the money, time and energy involved in such an endeavor, I shall be putting-it-off one, more day, as I have for the last two years!
My complacency has become stagnancy!
It did, though, take me two hours and forty minutes to type what you have just read!
Don Adams Studies:
I was doing some research for my friend, Don Adams. Our research had compelled me to contact the George Washington Presidential Library, requesting a letter written by George Washington Parke Curtis, (President Washington’s step-son,) to Lawrence Lewis, dated, June 20, 1846.
What I want to find in the letter is correspondence regarding Lawrence Lewis’ desire to be relinquished of the responsibility of being one of the only two, surviving executors of President George Washington’s estate.
According to this SOURCE, “…Nearly half a century after Washington’s death, with all of the executors but George Washington Parke Custis dead, no final settlement of the estate had been reached.”
Washington’s Presidential Library responded with the following email; and photos of the letter are below.
“This afternoon, I invested about $23.00, purchasing 8 shares of PLTE and placed a stop limit order to sell at $14.24, getting out just one penny before my buddy, Travis, (who clued-me-in on the stock,)…”

Day of Waiting the Cold out in Ocala
Spent the night under blankets to survive the thirty-five degree temperature. Woke up well after sunrise; and the wind still blew as it does now, as it did last night.
Tarp Fingers in the Sky!
The flapping of my tarp, overhead, reminds me of a flag made of thin fabric which surfs upon the treacherously wailing wind, waiting to rip and tear, to become tattered to fly as fingers of listless strings, waving irratically in the wind; losing theirselves, piece-by-piece, with every blast of time-intensifying, cold breeze which ravages the woven fabric into martyr-like shreds of disappearing embers into the grey, Florida, winter sky.
Starbucks Oligarchic System Defeat! (POWER UNLOCKED!)
Yesterday, I spent over five hours at Starbucks typing and researching; getting caffeine-high as fuck as the fourth coffee rolled around!
I have defeated their system! …. At Starbucks, after you purchase a coffee, the refill is $0.54. So, I just buy a large and keep paying fifty-four cents for a refill, saving me an average of $15.95 every time I visit!
I suffered quite the headache in the evening as the result of downing five coffees in five hours and not eating a single thing! (That was last night.)
Stock Market Venture
This afternoon, I invested about $23.00, purchasing 8 shares of PLTE and placed a stop limit order to sell at $14.24, getting out just one penny before my buddy, Travis, (who clued-me-in on the stock,) sells his 495 shares! He is convinced that the stock will hit $15.00; but I contend that most people will get out around $11.48. (Don’t ask me why.).
I also placed a limit buy order on VST if the price drops down to $190.00 per share, to buy one share; and the offer expires by 4pm, today; (and it did expire). My intuition tells me to leave all of my money in there and to find a similar stock, such as in companies like: NVIDIA, which is at $146.23 right now. I need to do more stock research.
I got a kick out of watching events at the Oval Office. One of them being this one:
One way these people keep their jobs is by purposely creating a haphazardly difficult environment which chases-away any self-respecting, professional help, leaving you with unskilled, non-dedicated, substandard workforce; and you remove their incentive to become better horsemen and to make the lives of the horses more enjoyable by coercing them to work seven days a week with NEVER a day off; and you pay them as little as possible with no suggestion of a pay-raise as a result of dedication and hard work.
She is a Lion. There is no middle class anymore. The upper-middle class has diminished to becoming lower-middle class. The medium-middle class no longer exists; therefore, you are either lower-middle class (which is approximately 1% below poverty rate), welfare recipients (who are the coming denominator for the entire, middle class,”, and you have the Upper Class which is comprised of either aristocrats or their offspring. The new, upper class does not earn money via producing a product or providing a service anymore. Their money is not earned income, but capital gains, which are compounding interest payments garnered from stored, uncirculated currency. The amount the upper class spends is calculated to be less than those interest payments, therefore, they never spend the principal; and since the interest is compounded, the principal grows of it’s mere existence, without reinvesting or diversifying. Big chunks of money just sit there to collect interest, and remain uncirculated. In other words, the offspring who is spending the money is not earning it; that money comes from the clouds, into their pockets, and; to collect it, all they have to do is wake up in the morning!
The Lower Class, to collect money, the need to work to earn it. Waking up is the easy part for the blue-collar worker. Collecting the money which belongs to them always seems to be the hard part.
Waking up for a Trust Fund Baby is the easy part, too; but paying the people who work for them seems to be the hard part for them, as well!
It’s called a, “Trust Fund,” it the above is the reason why your paycheck (on a monthly basis,) is approximately $2,600.00 LESS than you need to save, get ahead and live a better quality life. It is not a mistake. There is a reason why the Federal Reserve is going to have to start paddling their canoe in the next four years; and what I just stated above is only part of the reason why! Semper Fidelis!
“The closest approximation to truth
is found usually
in the mean of extreme views.”
“In the light of fuller knowledge it will be thought that the claim has lapsed, or only remains as a pious belief prevailing among an uncritical minority. … Whose mental bias predisposes them to the defense of exploded views. In such a case, however, an indiscriminate rejection is not much less superficial than an unenquiring acquiescence of a non-proven claim. The history of debated questions of this kind teaches another lesson, and the closest approximation to truth is found usually in the mean of extreme views.”
Living the dangerous life, my psyche is always right at home within my own skin whilst dancing in synchronicity with the turmoil in the throws of the Punk-Rock pit.

One of the more challenging aspects of developing pasture and grazing land is providing access to a reliable water supply for livestock. In some cases, existing streams, creeks, or ponds provide drinking water for the livestock. When a surface water source is not available, wells can be drilled and pumps installed to provide water for the animals. In some instances, surface water may be available, but not accessible to the livestock due to water quality issues, steep access slopes, or fencing issues.
“…His neurons tend not to carve-out the necessary pathways to the doors- beyond which the candle of truth flickers relentlessly for eternity.”
The Face Which Tries to Look at Itself
A man interprets, “doing the Lord’s work,” as living as the example of compassion and unconditional love. The man knows that, “the ultimate answer,” is to love the Lord above everything else. The man deems the act of loving himself as being the most selfish action a man could possibly undertake. (PROVERBS 16:5) The man, rather, deems that sacrificing himself for the sake of the happiness of others is, “doing the Lord’s work.” The man fails to actively share the love with himself which he yearns to share with others. In order to become the light of God for others, the man must learn to love the one person whom he deems to be most unworthy of such unconditional love!* This man has trained his mind to employ self-sacrifice over self-love. His neurons tend not to carve-out the necessary pathways to the doors- beyond which the candle of truth flickers relentlessly for eternity.

Careening Society
Society is getting worse and worse- it’s like toddlers are in control- making the rules for the rest of the world; then, upon those rules, they develop a society; and, after that, even dumber toddlers formulate our way of acting and interacting!
It is as if a pile of rocks, never erected into a structure, is the Foundation; and society sees that pile as the foundation upon which humanity must be built!

Some Visible Ghost Nibbles
The culture we live in seems strange and weak. People peer around and find everything to be strange while applying a weak predisposition; … scared, they are! People seem angry in a curious way; and people seem curious in an angry way.
Men look at me angrily- a self-hating mechanism. They are angry at the unknown, jealous imagination of me.
“You ever heard the, ‘baby left on your porch,” scenario?” Jupe asked.
“No.” I said.
“Well,” he said, “it’s the difference Between Fault and Responsibility! If somebody left a Baby on your porch, that’s not your fault. Everything that happens after that is your Responsibility.”
When You are pretending to be, “that”, you are, indeed, that character which you play! While the scene is being filmed, the only reality which exists is what the camera sees.
The answer, though the same as the problem, is to do nothing evil against evil. Retaliation, by nature, (altogether) is too late; the deed has been done.

“The Answer,” they seek cannot materialize. Instead, the, “investigation,” becomes a self-exploration, describing the whole of humanity, fueled by pent-up emotion (which they want to share,) consequently being extinguished by the arrogant affect of being the observer attempting to objectively observe itself. As a picture of a pencil cannot draw itself, the human attempting to reconcile with its own cognitive dissonance by way of cognition is the same as the ocean attempting to dry itself off by splashing around!

While focusing on a certain experience, Using definable paradigms, This creates a, “general feeling.” When it feels like, “day,” it is “daytime.” During the quiet, darkness of night, you focus on the crickets, the frogs and the smell of the air. It feels like, “nighttime”! Time is not linear. … “Durations of time” are simply general feelings compiled to create an overall feeling, known as an, “era”. The end of an era is simply the end of one overall feeling and the beginning to one, other, particular, general feeling.

We send, “money,” to Ukraine but send words to the Middle East. Imagine how foolish people are right now, believing that inflation is a real thing. Think about it: if we printed “too much” money, nobody would refuse it saying, “that money isn’t worth anything because there is too much it it.” … how STUPID are people to believe that “inflation,” is a cause and effect scenario? Inflation is simply lying about the value of a piece of paper and saying that a banana is worth more of those pieces of paper, as the result of having too many of those pieces of paper!

“We bring The Bible with us from place to place, when always The Bible is inside our hearts.”
A Decision
To decide between taking a vacation for reading The Bible and getting closer to God or taking a vacation for experiencing a new life by getting closer to another person, is a decision few men have the opportunity to make.
Many men are selling useless merchandise to their own hearts- this merchandise being those ideas and material things which draw us away from The Message!
This immediate urge to do something which humans experience is God knocking on the door, attempting to inspire us to remember what our purpose is here, on earth.
… the pitiful people who gravitate towards me, attempting to live vicariously through me. Like the man sitting next to me right now.

It is accurate to say that all the Old School horsemen are all gone. Just as capitalism no longer guarantees freedom (for the middle class), working hard in aspiration of earning an adequately-compensatory wage deems to be in incongruence with sanity, according to the current, socioeconomic reality. The delegation of a man of higher caliber insists that his such sojourn be ambulated, or accompanied by, similarly-spirited, likely-educated and strongly-willed, gentile warriors of both the sword and the book.

An Anarchist, and, though I don’t care if this world has a place for me in that, I still search for brotherhood and a woman. Lone traveler, as I always have been, machete in hand, whip in the other, torn between the two worlds, I swim deeply in the shallow waters of the minds of people- people who pass me by and leave me be, run away from me and avoid my suggestive nature. I scare away even me, you see? And that is ok with me, but not ok with me.

When you think an option is there, optimism may cloud your judgement. When you realize that the option was never there, you see how happiness made you a fool!
What is important to a fool could be important to a sage. What is happening right now has nothing to do with time.

“Your Aura is made up of your dominant thoughts and emotions If you have a high vibration, your Aura will be made up of Angels which makes it strong and shielded from negative entities
“To a world threatened by dissolution, the unifying impulse can only seem virtuous, yet the perennial human problem is how to keep the ideal of unity free of the burden of tyranny”
“It is the man who sways our minds by the prevalence of reason and the native force of truth, not they who reduce mankind to a state of slavery by force and downright violence… that claims our reverence.”
“Woe to him who makes God to be unto like any mode or attribute… Woe more if he make Him like unto sons of man, whose elements are earthly, and so are consumed and perish! There can be no conception attained of Him (God) except in so far as He manifests Himself when exercising dominion by and through some attribute.”
Uses the Holy Bible As His 24 Inch Rule The Tribal Scribe divides his day into three parts, using the guise of the Entered Tyler’s appearance of Ignorance to comport himself in The Way (The Tao) by an of example. He writes what he has seen, what has been and what will be.
“After this , I will return
and rebuild David’s fallen tent.”
This is the beginning of, or cornerstone of, the Temple. As the Sela Hammahlkoth is a fresh, encouraging Attitude, the destination is exactly that Unknown Feeling! ‘Tis a school, this project. ACTS 15:16 is not the journey. The destination is its own mystery.
Dakkuan
“After this , I will return and rebuild David’s Fallen Tent.”
“man may make the woods and mountains his Churches and Temples, and worship God with a devout gratitude, and with works of charity and beneficence to his fellow-men.”
“We no longer expect to rebuild the Temple at Jerusalem. To us it has become but a symbol. To us the whole world is God’s Temple, as is every upright heart. To establish all over the world the New Law and Reign of Love, Peace, Charity, and Toleration, is to build that Temple, most acceptable to God, in erecting which Masonry is now engaged. No longer needing to repair to Jerusalem to worship, nor to offer up sacrifices and shed blood to propitiate the Deity, man may make the woods and mountains his Churches and Temples, and worship God with a devout gratitude, and with works of charity and beneficence to his fellow-men. Wherever the humble and contrite heart silently offers up its adoration, under the overarching trees, in the open, level meadows, on the hill-side, in the glen, or in the city’s swarming streets; there is God’s House and the New Jerusalem.”
“This is true happiness: to have no ambition and to work like a horse as if you had every ambition.
To live far from men, not to need them and yet to love them. To have the stars above, the land to your left and the sea to your right and to realize of a sudden that in your heart, life has accomplished its final miracle:
I ate at a restaurant today; and there was no knife on the table. I used my pocket knife. The owner of the place got all nervous and started acting scared and giving me the “side-eye”. I’ve used my knife
“…it renders everybody equally responsible for the structure adopted by the group…”
If both Science and Religion have become a disservice, What is left?
Chip Van Hassel
To allow “scientists,” to retain the privilege which they have gained in some measure over time, without holding individual scientists accountable for their words would accomplish these two things: 1. It would render science a disservice. 2. It would render society a disservice.
Human nature is funny in that two people can read the same words on the page, and, even though they are on the same page, they still read the words differently.
There is always an independent variable- which is not open for interpretation.
(a) Any person subject to this chapter who wrongfully takes, obtains, or withholds, by any means, from the possession of the owner or of any other person any money, personal property, or article of value of any kind—
The Manic Depressive Person Must stay in the middle. The higher they are, the deeper Low they will go. The Lower they go, the higher they are- both causing crashes. Going too low keeps them low. Staying too high helps to raise.
…”the body, the mind, the spirit,
flows as does water.”…
It starts with the in-breath and begins in the out-breath. The continuous cycle is it’s own revolution, it’s own change. Hardened by it’s own hardness, the body, the mind, the spirit, flows as does water. Water can wear rock away even though rock can stop water. Perserverence of the flow proves phusical changd- Maybe just a dent, of deed.
“The yearning to comfort me…
I had not felt somebody’s eyes
do that for a long time!”
The look in her eyes, When she listened to my plight … The wet eyes, The yearning to comfort me… I had not felt somebody’s eyes do that for a long time!
“Transitional People transcend their own needs and tap into the deepest, most noble impulses of human nature. …
…these responses are the synthesis through which we all experience each other…”
Today, The World NEEDS Transitional People.
What is a, “Transitional Person”?
According to Enkindle Wellness, a, “Transitional Person is: “A person who breaks unhealthy, harmful, abusive or unfortunate learned behaviors and replaces them with proactive, helpful, effective behaviors. This person models positive behaviors and passes on effective habits that strengthen and build others in positive ways.”
So, after the Doug Fout Debacle, I ended up dealing with the frustrating pain and anguish of dealing with the Florida Gaming Commission. The red-tape of bullshit brings a man’s tolerance to it’s knees as he listens to people tell him,
“I understand. I’m sorry, and I understand; but I cannot help you.
Lemme transfer you to somebody else who understands, is sorry, but,… they won’t help you, either!”
“…with intent permanently to deprive or defraud another person of the use…”
It violates: 10 U.S. Code § 921 – Art. 121.

“Chaplain Bob smiled as he handed me a ten dollar bill from his wallet.”
His name is Chaplain Bob Miller. I cold-called him, asking for help one day. When he returned my call, he was driving back from the airport with his wife; they had just arrived home from Cuba.
Bob was warm and inviting. He understood my situation. He had a lot on his plate at the time, but he took a couple of moments to meet with me and briefly listen to my quandary. Little did he know,

(Book) where people communicate telepathically; and it is like the internet- where predictive text starts “tweeting,” faster than people think, sending incorrect telepathic messages. (Be careful not to beat the dead dog about this by over-using it in the plot;) Incorrect tweets sent cause catastrophic damage. (That is the main suspense of the plot)
…
I got this idea wondering if I could telepathically communicate with Elon Musk right now, (considering our current technology). Upon wondering this, I realized the current technology we use today would have this above mentioned idiosyncrasy.
“…The change that has occurred within the racing industry is not something that is lasting.”
-Retired Journeyman, Christopher Van Hassel
I had always planned to train racehorses after I retired from my riding career, but I had not predicted that the racing business would change the ways in which it has. The change that has occurred within the racing industry is not something that is lasting. Why do I say that?
… because they purposely create a toxic work environment…
‘Tis a strange experience, being an expert in my field, surrounded by people who are beginners, however, these beginners act and feel as though they are superior to me! The, “Dunning Krueger affect,” comes to mind.
The easiest name for, “Ego,” is, “I”. What war, or which weapon, shall a man wage against himself, albeit the teeth of the snake devouring its own tail?
To, “keep your friends close, but your enemies closer,” in order to know thine enemy, fails survival if thine self is thy enemy.
To know your enemy, or to know your own ego, is a most
prized attribute of war
and is the most powerful utensil for serving peace.
To know how to avoid developing an enemy avoids war,
but to know what your Loved Ones love mostequips you with the prizewhich outlasts war.
Chip Van Hassel
“Should we investigate this stupidity? … May we point it out with the purpose of teaching the younger generation about these people? We MUST!”
“It is a waste of journalism to describe the everyday instances where their petty, selfish stupidity interferes with the success of business. There is a higher level of thinking to exercise. There is a better way to live; there are smarter ways to conduct ourselves.”
“My common-core disgust had been skewed to a a new side. This disgust for people’s meanderings, never disheveled, (this core-disgust,) but always evolving, a metamorphosis from disgust to utter disgust permeated all emotional plateaus which created another level of judgement of my fellow man.
Not that it helped anything or made anything worse, however, became a conspiracy of sorts between the Mental State which I had worked so hard over the years to achieve and the positive Psyche which was the ablative of means by which I had arrived at that mental state (on it’s continuous level).”
The evil that propels people intrinsically bequeaths them to blame others, (or feel jealousy,) for short comings which they fluidly fabricate. This, “evil,” (this lower level of existence,) is a common human paradigm which compels a man to feel inferior to another man, then, aggressively, physically act-out as a result of such fluid, self-creating assertion.
Is was so much more serious than
George and Seinfeld’s
“One tuck and one No Tuck” scenario.
I have become the Midnight Ghost. A ghost is invisible. At midnight,… what happens?
Patti used to be a friend of mine. I ended up cutting ties with her in response to her posting pictures of herself wearing a Boy Scout uniform- the Shirt not tucked in.
Is was so much more serious than George and Seinfeld’s “One tuck and one No Tuck” scenario.
It came down to the root of the tree, the trunk of the matter and leaves everybody disconnected from each other.
Announcer: Good afternoon, Diogenes. In keeping with your reputation as a non-conformist, I see that you keep your bathtub outside of your house. Diogenes: The bathtub is my house. Announcer: I see. Well there must be some advantage to that. Diogenes: Certainly. No window can give a view like this, and if the neighborhood goes bad, I can just walk off with the house.
Deaf and Denied an Interpreter in Florida State Prison
Watch the Trailer.
I love Michelle. And I believe her story empowers all of us to recognize our own strengths and innate abilities even when our surrounding culture and systems do not. The systems must change in the United States and globally to support everyone.
BEING MICHELLE follows the astounding journey of a deaf and disabled woman who survived incarceration under unimaginable circumstances by a system that refused to accommodate her needs as a deaf person with autism.
On June 23, 1983, “Paul Mockapetris and Jon Postel ran the first successful test of the distributed Domain Name System (DNS). This automated process was to take over failing Arpanet and CSnet protocols because those relied on address books.
DNS uses a hierarchical distributed naming system for the Internet or any private network. It associates the domain names with numerical IP addresses.”
“You sent me something Crazy, and it was all in caps-lock!”
When a narcissist says that you did something crazy, however, (in reality,) YOU did something completely normal, they are using a manipulative tool called, “Projection”.
“Let Go of any reigns which are not currently in your hands!”
Expecting the Impossible
“A Trainer can give enough instructions to paralyze the rider.” The best way to find synchronicity is to Trust, To Allow and to Let Go of any reigns which are not currently in your hands.
Chip Van Hassel
Many trainers expect perfection every second, every step. Elephants poop in the room whilst perfection is only witnessed briefly in moments displayed as result of training and effort towards the delayed gratification of raising to the next degree.
Chip Van Hassel
Too much is too much.
Perfection occurs only throughout humble circumstance.
The Queen of Spades reminds you that it’s time to walk a different path because everything has shifted. You have been put onto a new plane and the only way to move forward is by walking your own path, not someone else’s.”
“All around, people are living their lives doing things they think they’re supposed to. This won’t make sense to you when you’re spiritually attuned to something greater. It can sometimes feel like there’s a disconnect between you and the existence others seem fine with. SOURCE.
Will you keep silent and punish us beyond measure?
“I revealed myself to those who did not ask for me; I was found by those who did not seek me. To a nation that did not call on my name, I said, ‘Here am I, here am I’. All day long, I have held my hands to an obstinate people, who walk in ways not good, pursuing their own imaginations- people who continually provoke me to my very face, offering sacrifices in gardens and burning incense on alters of brick; who sit among the graves and spend their nights keeping secret vigil, who eat the flesh of pigs and whose pots hold broth of impure meat; who say, ‘Keep away; don’t come near me. I am too sacred for you! Such people are smoke in my nostrils, a fire that keeps burning all day.”
“Live your crazy to the best of your expression, as nobody else completely understands what your borders are or what your limits could be. Do for you, being true to yourself. If you have no selfish intent, this is not selfish.”
Don’t want to be here. Don’t want to be there. I’d rather be here than there. I’d rather be there than here. Each place I am, My mind is somewhere else. Realizing my intuition, Making me feel alone, I realize all the things I am And realize I am none of them.
Put all of your focus into what, or who you want to experience, for a certain amount of time. One thing about time, there’s no telling how far it will stretch.
Life may be just a dancing moment, just one day or a week or a year, or just a split-second.
Anyone would give their last dollar to James Lopez. Whenever you knew you were in his presence, that forever made you feel good. Any time I have ever thought of you, love was the only thing I could feel.
A lot of people see a bar as a membrane that is not permeable. Outside on the street, there is a lonely freedom. Cars passing. People smoking cigarettes. It’s like backstage at a concert

When the man doesn't want
to deal with humanity,
He goes down to the trenches,
pushes weights from his benches,
And he clenches his fists.
When he hits a target, he hits it with a twist.
Trying to be as passive as the morning mist,
Feeling as aggressive
As a yellow jacket
when it's pissed.
These last days and months, completely drugged-up, expressing, experiencing, growing my soul like a weed with flowers on it- like a vine strangling up a tree, climbing to great heights, squeezing life from the host, flowering and nectorring the huny beez…
These crazy days and 2 o’clock in the morning ventures that I do not remember; the recordings and forwarding of bottomless ideas…
“The mysteries were established by men of great genius who, in early days, strove to teach purity, ameliorate the cruelty of the race, to refine its morals and manners and to restrain society by a stronger bond than those which human laws impose.”
