Whatever was on TV, would easily be interrupted&lt;br /&gt;by the new song by him. I remember Bad, Thriller, and a few&lt;br /&gt;other videos being put on irregardless of what was on; the&lt;br /&gt;president could have been speaking, and, awp, Micheal has&lt;br /&gt;released a new video, and we have to cut to that.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I really enjoyed the music; before I was a teenager I was&lt;br /&gt;not very interested in music, but the vibe of Micheal and&lt;br /&gt;his music was very inspiring, and I may have even danced&lt;br /&gt;a little bit.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On facebook I made a comment in a thread regarding his&lt;br /&gt;passing. I stated, quote, "I could give a damn about one&lt;br /&gt;celebrity passing, when possibly hundreds of Indigenous&lt;br /&gt;people carrying spears were slaughtered by police from&lt;br /&gt;helicopters with absolutely *no* coverage."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I do not wish to disrespect his passing, or state that I&lt;br /&gt;do not like him. However in the grand scheme I do not think&lt;br /&gt;that it has as much relevance as the recent events in&lt;br /&gt;Devils Curve, Peru, or even the conflict in Darfur.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I attended a party at the Full Circle Farm last night, and&lt;br /&gt;they were asking for donations to send to the children in&lt;br /&gt;Sudan, who were being taken from their families and sold&lt;br /&gt;into Slavery.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My understanding is that in Sudan, hundreds of years ago,&lt;br /&gt;there existed *no* problems on the scale that we see today.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is my belief that the Way Of Life and the level of&lt;br /&gt;Privilage that most Americans have experienced is directly&lt;br /&gt;due to the exploitation and lack of human empathy that began&lt;br /&gt;on a large scale with the subjugation and control of the African&lt;br /&gt;continent.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So when I first came to the party here, surrounded by, excuse me,&lt;br /&gt;caucasians, I felt extremely out of place. I felt that the fund&lt;br /&gt;raising was in jest, in some ways it is conscious, and an aware&lt;br /&gt;movement, but on the *grand scheme* it would be all but impossible&lt;br /&gt;to explain my view on why all of these people have been able to&lt;br /&gt;enjoy such privilages as having time to be aware of domestic and&lt;br /&gt;governmental conflicts abroad.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So I did not feel well. I felt angry in some ways. I still feel&lt;br /&gt;this way, disconnected from the consensus, because I find it very&lt;br /&gt;hard to say "this computer I am typing on is filled with precious&lt;br /&gt;metals from third world countries" and "everything that is imported&lt;br /&gt;into America is shipped using large amounts of natural gas, which&lt;br /&gt;is ultimately taken from places like Nigeria, and South America".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As I found these things out it made me want to simply leave this&lt;br /&gt;place. No matter how aware they get, it will take them quite some&lt;br /&gt;time to understand that any importation of goods, any interaction&lt;br /&gt;with so called Third World Nations, amounts to agreeing to this&lt;br /&gt;slavery, agreeing to this seperation of natural peoples from their&lt;br /&gt;original ways of life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;No matter how low the gas consumption of my car, no matter if it is&lt;br /&gt;a hybrid, or a tiny electric vehicle, the machine behind it that&lt;br /&gt;creates these goods, is ultimately evil.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;No matter how organic the food I eat, there is always going to be&lt;br /&gt;Ecco-Aparteid, people who really need health, but will never be&lt;br /&gt;able to afford it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As long as we are in a culture that cannot exist on its own, and&lt;br /&gt;"requires" goods and importation from other nations, we will all&lt;br /&gt;be perpetuating the slavery and destruction of foreign lands and&lt;br /&gt;people.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;No amount of donations to them will stop it. Someone said, that&lt;br /&gt;in Sudan, there *is* no currency. Do you know why? Because there&lt;br /&gt;has *never* been one except for that which was imposed by&lt;br /&gt;colonialism.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One point I have. I do not ask questions. I create solutions.&lt;br /&gt;So it is difficult for me to learn from others. But I do listen&lt;br /&gt;intently to everyone. And I would like to hear all view points.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;--&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I finished the last paragraph of this writing in the company of&lt;br /&gt;the people who sponsored the party. They said that at least $1000&lt;br /&gt;was donated for the cause of slavery in Sudan. They had pledged to&lt;br /&gt;match each dollar donated and send it off to the Sudan.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;With so much cultural pressure present I had no inclination to&lt;br /&gt;discuss my views of what was going on. Each person there seemed&lt;br /&gt;to be very well off, very set in their ways, and very aware that&lt;br /&gt;their way of life would end. They were just enjoying it while it&lt;br /&gt;lasted.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/14949812-2208929664473692704?l=terbospeed.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://terbospeed.blogspot.com/feeds/2208929664473692704/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=14949812&amp;postID=2208929664473692704' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14949812/posts/default/2208929664473692704'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14949812/posts/default/2208929664473692704'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://terbospeed.blogspot.com/2009/06/ten-million-miles-away-from-sun.html' title='Ten Million Miles Away From The Sun'/><author><name>Chad B.</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15925579548859087882</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_M1MeDQB7p7o/ShohXQi3m4I/AAAAAAAAAEs/M9PTx_R3GKs/S220/stepping-off-the-spaceship2.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14949812.post-3436436191197458489</id><published>2009-06-24T13:59:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-06-24T14:05:18.755-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='indigenous culture destruction comfort affluent'/><title type='text'>An Indigenous Woman in the 50's - You supported it!</title><content type='html'>In the 50's a woman was diagnosed as having&lt;br /&gt;had nervous breakdowns after a move from&lt;br /&gt;(then only a territory)  Alaska to Texas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;She was prescribed Thorazine, and perpetually&lt;br /&gt;kept in a state of complete sedation; when not&lt;br /&gt;going in and out of mental hospitals.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I talked with the womans daughter for quite&lt;br /&gt;some time. She told me that she thought her&lt;br /&gt;mom was just really tired all of the time,&lt;br /&gt;but learned later in her life that Thorazine&lt;br /&gt;was a very heavy sedative.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Her mother had married a Caucasian man,&lt;br /&gt;from which three children were born.&lt;br /&gt;She told me that while in school, it was&lt;br /&gt;forbidden to speak her native "Indian"&lt;br /&gt;language.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As the spanish had come to america and&lt;br /&gt;decimated the indigenous population and&lt;br /&gt;integrated the remainders, her mothers&lt;br /&gt;last name had been changed to "M******",&lt;br /&gt;and from her father the name H********&lt;br /&gt;was attached.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We slowly drove through the mountains of Santa&lt;br /&gt;Barbara having this discourse.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I came to the conclusion that if you had, for&lt;br /&gt;many generations, spoken a language, had various&lt;br /&gt;customs, various leaders, a history, healers, etc...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And they were taken away. Systematically destroyed.&lt;br /&gt;And then *laughed at*. Invalidated. Would you choose&lt;br /&gt;to integrate, adopt your enslavers ways? Language?&lt;br /&gt;History?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A history that told you that the people that you came&lt;br /&gt;from, the "darkies", were basically some form of&lt;br /&gt;unevolved, uncivilized people, and that all of their&lt;br /&gt;history was wrong?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My first impulse would be to kill every fucking one that&lt;br /&gt;looked like my enslaver. But we all know that its deeper&lt;br /&gt;than that.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As the enslaver has sat and thought, at great length,&lt;br /&gt;about the subjugation and destruction of the planet that&lt;br /&gt;he was trapped on, I will say that the problem has been&lt;br /&gt;extended into the realm of language, so that the people&lt;br /&gt;of subjugation will begin to subjugate themselves.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;She told me about an experiment where young african slave&lt;br /&gt;descendants were shown two dolls, one white and one black.&lt;br /&gt;They were asked which doll was the "good" doll, and, each&lt;br /&gt;one invariably pointed at the white one.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They were then asked which doll 'they' were, and, again,&lt;br /&gt;they pointed at the white doll.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well, I digress, this story has been played out and told&lt;br /&gt;over and over again, to the point where most don't even&lt;br /&gt;really care, understand, nor have any sympathy. Most have&lt;br /&gt;simply integrated, as it is easier, dissolved their ancient&lt;br /&gt;identities, and accepted the reality that their enslavers&lt;br /&gt;has presented as true.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have not, will not, and will never, and I will die with&lt;br /&gt;the knowledge of my past, no matter how distorted it is,&lt;br /&gt;no matter how much of it has been destroyed, this is not&lt;br /&gt;my home and I will never accept it. There.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So systematic destruction has been common place. In fact,&lt;br /&gt;so many people cry about the Jews and the Holocaust, but,&lt;br /&gt;please, please, eugenics was a program of destroying all&lt;br /&gt;races that were thought to be "lesser" than the 'civilized'&lt;br /&gt;white man (who could not even value human life... right)&lt;br /&gt;and the Holocaust was the 'largest' of such persecutions -&lt;br /&gt;but before that *many* races were experimented on and&lt;br /&gt;tortured.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, to me, making a big point of the Holocaust being so&lt;br /&gt;damaging to the human race is actually a way of distorting&lt;br /&gt;the truth of what the program of Eugenics was about.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Destroying all people non-white - and Hitler was not the&lt;br /&gt;only one taking part in this belief system.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Location: Devils Curve, Peru.&lt;br /&gt;Date: June 5th, 2009&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Indigenous Weapons: Spears, Bows &amp; Arrows&lt;br /&gt;Police Weapons: Machine Guns, Tear Gas, Armored Vehicles&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;While there is very little news coverage, very few pictures,&lt;br /&gt;but a lot of internet press, it is said that the people were&lt;br /&gt;protesting the sale of some 200,000 sq. miles of their territory&lt;br /&gt;to be transformed into mining properties and deforestation&lt;br /&gt;projects.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The police began to fire their automatic weapons and tear gas&lt;br /&gt;directly into the crowd, and while it is simply ludacris to&lt;br /&gt;believe these killers and thieves, they say somewhere around 20&lt;br /&gt;police were killed, and 70 indigenous.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is very recent news, it is very covered up,&lt;br /&gt;and it is directly related to every single Affluent persons&lt;br /&gt;support for their comfort and way of life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My belief is that this level of industrialization has only&lt;br /&gt;been sustained for two to three generations at most, and&lt;br /&gt;will only be able to sustain for two or three more generations,&lt;br /&gt;at most.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is fine to be caught up in the new release of cell phones and&lt;br /&gt;fancy cars so that you can't see reality, and only run from&lt;br /&gt;appointment to appointment.

Collectivistic cultures emphasize the fundamental relatedness of individuals to each other, for example by valuing attending to others, fitting in, and harmonious interdependence with them. Thus the self in collectivistic cultures is interdependent, and the individual is focused predominantly on his or her relationship with ingroup members or with the ingroup as a whole. In individualistic cultures, on the other hand, individuals hold an independent view of the self and seek to maintain their independence from others by attending to the self and by discovering and expressing their unique inner attributes.[3]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Subjective vs. objective emotions&lt;br /&gt;The view of the self as independent in individualistic cultures leads to the perception of emotions as a unique personal experience. The emotional reality is therefore taken as subjective: different people are expected to have different emotional worlds, and to react in different ways to the same experiences. On the contrary, in collectivistic cultures, emotions are experienced out of relationships. They reflect the outer, rather than the inner world and are therefore taken as objective: it is assumed that all people experience the same emotion in a given social situation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Self and emotions&lt;br /&gt;The construal of the self affect the personal emotional experienced. The need to enhance the self and its independence in individualistic cultures leads to prevalence of emotions that stress the uniqueness and separation of the individual. In collectivistic cultures emotion relate more to the relationships with others and to the fitness of the individual to its social environment. Hence, the same situation might lead to different emotions in collectivistic and in individualistic cultures. In a research held by Mesquita (2001) it was found that achievements related to higher education in Turkey (a collectivistic culture) led to pride as a result of the honor brought to the family, while in Holland (an individualistic culture) similar achievements led to self satisfaction and content.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cultural norms for emotions&lt;br /&gt;Social norms exist for various aspects of emotions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;General emotional norms: what emotions are considered to be good or bad? Which should be more prevalent?&lt;br /&gt;Feeling rules: how should one feel when encountering certain event (does being criticized lead to anger or embarrassment?)&lt;br /&gt;Display rules: how should one act when experiencing certain emotion (does anger manifest as aggression or withdrawal?)&lt;br /&gt;While individualistic cultures are loose regarding to the display rules (one can express one's feelings as preferred at the moment), norms for positive feeling rules in individualistic cultures are very tight. According to those norms, one should be happy and strive for happiness, and if one is not happy, that means one has failed to achieve life’s goals[4]. In collectivistic cultures such as China, the feeling rules are rather loose: there are no strict expectations about how one should generally feel. However, the display rules are much tighter: there are certain expectations about the way one should show one's feelings in a given context. For example, Confucian cultures consider expression of emotions (both positive and negative) as a possible threat to the social order. Hence, the norms are of not-showing personal emotions.

Try and get out of that. [they dodge, but thay cannot hide]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The fact of the matter is that at the age of 30, I feel awed and afraid and&lt;br /&gt;*prepared* to walk up a long mountain road, to the utmost top, and receive a&lt;br /&gt;vision from .. the elders .. the gods ..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The fact of the matter is that in 2009 most people find drugs by accident or&lt;br /&gt;as a seeming escape, but 5000 years ago indigenous tribes *most likely*&lt;br /&gt;routinely introduced the world of the 'real' and the humility of the&lt;br /&gt;psychedelic experience to their young through ancient (then!) ritual,&lt;br /&gt;when they were *teens* - 13? 14?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So as a culture we are immature. Knowing that now reject everything you&lt;br /&gt;think you know or have been told and go crazy for a while, its *OK*, and&lt;br /&gt;now try and integrate all of this "stuff" you feel with all of these things&lt;br /&gt;you "suddenly" seem to know.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is no mistake, there is no "god", there is no difference between science and&lt;br /&gt;religion, there is no alternation between right-wing and left-wing, globalism&lt;br /&gt;is capitalism is imperialism is slavery is right now is going on is tomorrow is&lt;br /&gt;next year is ten years from now is your childrens future is their childrens future.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you fucks don't all wake up and microscope on these Rothchild lunatics, or gods,&lt;br /&gt;whichever it may be, pay attention to the fine points and government reactions to&lt;br /&gt;the 9/11 farce, respond by accepting that the 'truth' will require a jarring to&lt;br /&gt;your consciousness, unless you 'want' it to be 'gradual' - in which case you are&lt;br /&gt;personally choosing to limit your awareness of truth and slowing down your trott&lt;br /&gt;on the road to self realization.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I denounce all things popular, everything not chewed on and understood by my own&lt;br /&gt;eyes ears hands and mind, even much of 'new age' and spiritual explanations for&lt;br /&gt;the state of the world, (and I only say that because I'm *surrounded* by these nuts)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I can only add up that probably eighty-five percent of ya'll are in necklace, and&lt;br /&gt;you can do the rest of the math.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I reject everything but my own intuition, and even then, I take turns fully rejecting&lt;br /&gt;that.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Follow me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For a moment, and then forge your own path.

and not &lt;i&gt;objective&lt;/i&gt; -- when the body of knowledge that I am&lt;br /&gt;drawing on is in its infancy (25 years ago this was the realm of shock treatment&lt;br /&gt;and lobotomies, ya'll).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So I do not plant in my head that I have been experiencing HPPD for the past 10 years.&lt;br /&gt;Because as the map above explains, (which is not complete - thought discrimination?),&lt;br /&gt;what you think creates an expectation for what you think is &lt;b&gt;possible&lt;/b&gt; - i.e.&lt;br /&gt;your destiny.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So I put forth that a majority of "mental illness", "anti-social behavior", and other&lt;br /&gt;selfish, destructive acts and modes of life, are a result of improper thoughts, on&lt;br /&gt;whatever foundation, which is gained during childhood usually from genetic/environmental contact.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That is, your parents could have some pretty poor thought process for some fundamental&lt;br /&gt;thing, either regarding self awareness, social awareness, productivity,&lt;br /&gt;decision making,dealing with&lt;br /&gt;emotions, self importance, mating, or any combination, which when given attention and&lt;br /&gt;focused on can cause great disaster, as anyone in this world can see, having drastic&lt;br /&gt;measures with bad plans results in ... having plans that don't really make sense ...&lt;br /&gt;are just a result of momentum ...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What are some old trains of thought?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I believe religion is a great one.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In some ways it is a good thing, but overall I feel it to be a cultural legacy&lt;br /&gt;which has outgrown its overall effectiveness and usefulness, though still serves&lt;br /&gt;as a foundation for many things in this society, and world, through our societies&lt;br /&gt;beliefs on its relation and potentials in the world.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well, don't let it get to your head.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Who needs a creative, non-rational thinker in todays world? I do .. &lt;br /&gt;society doesn't.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, to drive the nail in further, the quest of the psychedelic&lt;br /&gt;knowledge here has been drowned out by pleasure seekers, know-it-alls,&lt;br /&gt;feel-instead-of-think hippies who have some of the ideas ... LOL!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I think the psychedelic experience is the key to gaining true insight&lt;br /&gt;into the nature of reality and the distinction between what we percieve&lt;br /&gt;and project and what is *actually* existing .. that amongst a lot of things - and I don't think people have to "do" the &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;drugs, either.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Medical marijuana is cool and all that ... but I think psychedelic&lt;br /&gt;research is much more important, on a grand scale. Besides, drugs&lt;br /&gt;being illegal is another faulty, useless, relic from the past that&lt;br /&gt;needs to be 'updated' with better information and handeling.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, relevance? These are all of my struggles at attempting to&lt;br /&gt;stay sane in this insane world. Or, put properly, I had to go&lt;br /&gt;insane to stay sane here.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Put another way .. freedom is great.&lt;br /&gt;But with that freedom you have to create your own boundaries,&lt;br /&gt;and somehow I forgot a lot of fundamental things that most people&lt;br /&gt;are passed down and or know inherantly.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So this is my creating of a universe.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So tiring. Lots of stuff to fill in.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/14949812-3985474674514519981?l=terbospeed.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://terbospeed.blogspot.com/feeds/3985474674514519981/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=14949812&amp;postID=3985474674514519981' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14949812/posts/default/3985474674514519981'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14949812/posts/default/3985474674514519981'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://terbospeed.blogspot.com/2009/05/i-am-is-were-are-and-will-be.html' title='I Am, Is, Were, Are, and Will Be .....'/><author><name>Chad B.</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15925579548859087882</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_M1MeDQB7p7o/ShohXQi3m4I/AAAAAAAAAEs/M9PTx_R3GKs/S220/stepping-off-the-spaceship2.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14949812.post-5019783316687502954</id><published>2009-05-03T22:17:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-05-03T23:16:06.884-07:00</updated><title type='text'>The Daily Diagnosis</title><content type='html'>Why?

So this&lt;br /&gt;was my supposition.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If what you know is hierarchal, and builds on what "was true" -- as culture&lt;br /&gt;advances, as knowledge 'increases' - how do such "fundamental" ideas change&lt;br /&gt;the knowing of later acquired information?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the computer world, the analogy would be: the kernel/framework/foundation&lt;br /&gt;changes, and all modules, and programs, need a 'slight' update to work&lt;br /&gt;properly - that is, all programs that were properly planned in the first place.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So how does this equate to culture?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I believe culture to be a 'legacy' - that is, all popular culture, all consensus&lt;br /&gt;reality, is a uniformly accepted 'transmission'  of information, that essentially&lt;br /&gt;is a past reflection and exaggeration of events that were not transmitted as they&lt;br /&gt;happened objectively - a 'caricature' of what was 'now' and 'reality' at some point.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, the supposition is as follows:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If we build our knowledge in a hierarchal nature - and one of the quite fundamental&lt;br /&gt;relations changes state - how do we update the consequentially related information?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What is the 'apt-get dist-upgrade' to culture??&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I will put forth that as man ages, the nature of his consciousness changes, and also how he acquires and equates information, which heavily effects his perspective&lt;br /&gt;on the world and _also_ his expectations of what he is capable of, which ultimately adds up to there being a current cognitive dissonance which is widely accept as being "ok" in popular culture, which is greatly aged and stagnant, and needs to be updated. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hot stuff ya'll. This is where we are. Religion and history as a self-reflective&lt;br /&gt;record of where our thought and energy has been focused.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What do you spend most of your mental energy on?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As we think, connections are reinforced, other connections are way-sided,&lt;br /&gt;and solutions are increased.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So what happens as we age? To our memory? And our ability to learn?&lt;br /&gt;And our ability to concentrate and choose what to focus on? And our perspective?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And the ability to judge new information, and integrate it into our&lt;br /&gt;entire world-view?&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/14949812-5019783316687502954?l=terbospeed.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://terbospeed.blogspot.com/feeds/5019783316687502954/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=14949812&amp;postID=5019783316687502954' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14949812/posts/default/5019783316687502954'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14949812/posts/default/5019783316687502954'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://terbospeed.blogspot.com/2009/05/daily-diagnosis.html' title='The Daily Diagnosis'/><author><name>Chad B.</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15925579548859087882</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_M1MeDQB7p7o/ShohXQi3m4I/AAAAAAAAAEs/M9PTx_R3GKs/S220/stepping-off-the-spaceship2.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14949812.post-8073598002364839162</id><published>2008-11-19T12:38:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2008-11-19T12:40:21.818-08:00</updated><title type='text'>tcsh one liner foreach and while loops</title><content type='html'>Just figured it out.

Whats linux? I want to play music on my phone ..."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://linuxdevices.com/articles/AT8033409446.html&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I began by playing around with the default install of 2007 for a bit.&lt;br /&gt;My first impulse was to configure video chat and send it to a relative,&lt;br /&gt;but soon I saw that gTalk on the PC didn't support video calls, while&lt;br /&gt;the client on the n800 did ...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://maemo.org/community/wiki/HOWTO_FlashLatestNokiaImageWithLinux&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So I had to update to 2008. The first problem I ran into was the&lt;br /&gt;error "To flash the bootloader, you have to supply the X-Loader..."&lt;br /&gt;after downloading the earlier version of 2008. Using the latest version&lt;br /&gt;worked very well. The interface was nicer, but took up more of the screen.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Overall it was faster as it clocked the CPU to 400mhz instead of the 2007's&lt;br /&gt;speed of 333mhz. I have been using the device a lot since I got it; I charge&lt;br /&gt;it at night and when I am near a plug, and haven't noticed a big difference&lt;br /&gt;in the battery life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My second task was to get shell access - luckily ossi-xterm was included in&lt;br /&gt;2008. Typing wasn't very fun at first, using the stylus and smaller keyboard,&lt;br /&gt;until I discovered the full-screen keyboard, which you can essentially thumb.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Fully debian underneath, apt-get works and there is even a trick to get root:&lt;br /&gt;"sudo gainroot". After setting a root password sudo will still ask for a &lt;br /&gt;password, but I don't use sudo normally so I haven't gotten to making that work.&lt;br /&gt;I set a user password also; (the default user is "user"). Then I went about&lt;br /&gt;happily installing many, many applications.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.gronmayer.com/it/&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This page contains a collection of n800 repositories. Navigable from the&lt;br /&gt;devices built in browser, it is very easy to add them. I am still not sure&lt;br /&gt;as to which are worthy and which cause confusion - my application manager is&lt;br /&gt;full of various similarly named categories, and viewing the entire list is&lt;br /&gt;tedious, as the column for version numbers overrides the column for names ..&lt;br /&gt;making most of the names unreadable. I just ran through it by category.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The first program installed was SSH, and off to my desktop I went, looking&lt;br /&gt;through the filesystem with greater ease..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have to go, but first I will tell of my experience with video chat. Using&lt;br /&gt;gizmo5 which is linked from the default menu, the compression seems to cause&lt;br /&gt;lots of artifacts. The audio is good, and the incoming video is good, but the&lt;br /&gt;video the n800 produces is sub-par. There may be other possibilities and I&lt;br /&gt;will try them out soon enough.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A word about the camera - it seems to produce lots of staticy artifacts. I have&lt;br /&gt;noticed that when it is turning on, at one point while it is brightening up, it&lt;br /&gt;produces a very good picture. Maybe it allows in too much light? Neither the&lt;br /&gt;supplied camera application or the downloaded Knips allow any tuning of the&lt;br /&gt;camera which is a shame.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am now in #maemo as well as #lvlug and will share any more information I&lt;br /&gt;gain in due time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Chad&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/14949812-7961231838455712346?l=terbospeed.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://terbospeed.blogspot.com/feeds/7961231838455712346/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=14949812&amp;postID=7961231838455712346' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14949812/posts/default/7961231838455712346'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14949812/posts/default/7961231838455712346'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://terbospeed.blogspot.com/2008/06/my-nokia-n800-there-is-no-gate-on-this.html' title='My Nokia N800: &quot;There is no gate on this house.

I'm 28 have had no romantic life to&lt;br /&gt;speak of, dating back to childhood. I am attuned to&lt;br /&gt;psychological interpretations of how humans behave;&lt;br /&gt;possibly to the point of inhibiting any normal connections&lt;br /&gt;being made. Its also severely difficult to just maintain&lt;br /&gt;friendships with women when I've felt the need for a deep&lt;br /&gt;relationship all of my life, and I often become infatuated&lt;br /&gt;or obsessed over any female that shows me attention or casual&lt;br /&gt;affection.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Such is life, I have posted here looking for mates but I've&lt;br /&gt;concluded that if you don't know who you are, you don't know&lt;br /&gt;who you will be compatible with.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So now I am simply interested in conversing on the complicated&lt;br /&gt;topic of interpersonal relationships. I figure a lot of people&lt;br /&gt;have similar problems, I have seen too many beautiful women who&lt;br /&gt;never seemed to have good relationships.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This discourse can be conducted over e-mail, instant messaging,&lt;br /&gt;or irc. Your story gets mine, or vice versa. (g) I've also been&lt;br /&gt;reading "Toward a Lasting Romantic Relationship" by Edith Packer,&lt;br /&gt;which brought me to this conclusion.

Krishnamurti's views on spirituality and enlightenment, in Mind as Myth.&lt;br /&gt;(Its funny, jct was my original username on escape.com in the mid 90's).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Soul is basically an exposition on spiritual enlightenment from&lt;br /&gt;a cultural conditioning standpoint; it makes the argument that&lt;br /&gt;religion is more a method of control, which Krishnamurti says is likened&lt;br /&gt;to police control, one being internal, one being external. It gives ideas&lt;br /&gt;on how conditioning effects a being, (the mind being the conditioning and&lt;br /&gt;memories and dreams and a born talker), and that this conditioning is for&lt;br /&gt;surviving in society.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Looking back at Buddhism it seems a lot of it is conditioning, and paired&lt;br /&gt;with Krishnamurti's cynical yet clear views of enlightenment, it seems that&lt;br /&gt;it doesn't even exist. (Yes, a panacea for existence, sounds like a form of&lt;br /&gt;desire.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So I contemplated becoming a materialist; that is, all that exists is the body.&lt;br /&gt;You cannot see anything really, all that you can see is thought, for thought is&lt;br /&gt;the determining factor that judges and controls and wishes to forever stay&lt;br /&gt;continuous, and for everything to be knowable; though reality is discontinuous&lt;br /&gt;and unknowable.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Though thought is already dead, it asserts that life goes on forever, and creates&lt;br /&gt;entire worlds in which to immerse in, validifying (at least to itself) that there&lt;br /&gt;is a reason to live.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But what about the body? The body knows no difference between pain and pleasure,&lt;br /&gt;good and bad, all it does is live and recreate.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thought is the method through which it lives; conditioning is neccesary for survival in society..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So why are there so many apparent problems in society? There aren't, actually.&lt;br /&gt;As long as we are all surviving and feeding the machine nothing needs to change,&lt;br /&gt;it will in due time and some of us have interests in bringing about that change,&lt;br /&gt;while others will simply be able to use the system to seemingly satisfy themselves.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So all of this seems fine. I had no interest in these things until I was 19, indeed&lt;br /&gt;I didn't think at all about the future (despair), and lived in a world created by&lt;br /&gt;excess fear. That changed and now I live in a world influenced by fear but mainly&lt;br /&gt;shaped by hope and desire.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Desire which doesn't exist and which removes my own power.&lt;br /&gt;Hmm .. what do I want with power anyway?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This was great for me, I always had something to chase, and always something to&lt;br /&gt;run from, all the while thinking that I simply wanted to stand still. But I was&lt;br /&gt;standing still ..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;--&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I woke up at 4am for no apparent reason; from no memorable dream. I hopped on IRC&lt;br /&gt;and found inhahe unable to sleep also, and jokingly remarked "wow suuuch a funny&lt;br /&gt;coincidence!!". An hour later though, the old man who lives with my Grandma was&lt;br /&gt;up at 5am .. making food, and being pretty loud, something I've never seen before.&lt;br /&gt;Coincidence or not? Does it really matter? (It seems he was going somewhere, and&lt;br /&gt;the wireless being down and me being on the modem at the time stopped some call&lt;br /&gt;from coming in for a ride he was waiting for.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are definitally many things beyond the limited vehicle of thought. We can&lt;br /&gt;make that up into many myths and explain many experiences in many ways. If they&lt;br /&gt;are true or not we will probably never know until science "proves" it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm compelled to inquire about all of this, as there is something about my&lt;br /&gt;experience and physiology that seems .. different. Oh and I want attention.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Perception is reality. We see what we expect to see. And [our] language is woefully&lt;br /&gt;inadaquate at actually describing reality. None of these things matter in the grand&lt;br /&gt;picture, for if something doesn't have survival value for society it never really&lt;br /&gt;comes about in sanctioned ways.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;While we may want things to change they may or may not; desire has the common&lt;br /&gt;factor of always being stronger as the hope of something that will make you better&lt;br /&gt;and stronger, but as it is recieved you realize that it wasn't really what you&lt;br /&gt;wanted; reinforcing the desire to get the one thing that you thought you did want.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Past and future.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Who is here now?&lt;br /&gt;What is there to do in the now?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Probably just enjoy it.&lt;br /&gt;But even that is something the body doesn't need.&lt;br /&gt;Seems like a desire.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sounds like I don't want to survive in society, thanks though.&lt;br /&gt;Malenculturation takes its tolls ..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Signing off, your tripped out investigator from the fringes of humanity and&lt;br /&gt;the edges of sanity, the mad-capped mental scientist determined to prove&lt;br /&gt;that life exists&lt;br

type='text'>the internet is down</title><content type='html'>the internet has gone out, which is something that happens regularly&lt;br /&gt;when you rely on someone elses apparent carelessness. it seems to&lt;br /&gt;happen here pretty often, and it only comes back on when they go&lt;br /&gt;and reset their modem ...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i had a dream i was on some island this afternoon. i barely remember&lt;br /&gt;most of it. the other day i had a dream that my great grandmother was&lt;br /&gt;a sort of opera singer, but the way she used her voice was dreamlike,&lt;br /&gt;nothing like i've ever heard. i was there talking to someone about&lt;br /&gt;making techno and he didn't seem to like my suggestions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i had a dream about this girl. we were in some dark city, but i remember&lt;br /&gt;talking to her. before that i had a dream where my grade school class&lt;br /&gt;was in some sort of room, eating chicken, and i gave her my laptop.&lt;br /&gt;she disappeared, and everyone left, except for my friend, and i told&lt;br /&gt;him something regarding that she was going to be my girlfriend.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;my desire seems to increase exponentially when a female is the subject.&lt;br /&gt;i don't understand why. i've been without the appreciation of a woman&lt;br /&gt;for so long that it doesn't even seem possible now; i was in love when&lt;br /&gt;i was 22, with a very nice woman, but we were mainly connected physically,&lt;br /&gt;which then became an emotional connection, which eventually ended up in&lt;br /&gt;fighting. at least i got to know what it feels like, but even in retrospect&lt;br /&gt;it didn't seem quite right.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;looking back it probaly failed because we were both inexperienced and&lt;br /&gt;didn't talk about what we actually needed, though she was several years&lt;br /&gt;older than me. looking at her life now she is still alone, and seems to&lt;br /&gt;work with children out of a need to nurture others.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;well i have those same needs but conditioning and confusion have complicated&lt;br /&gt;their attainment. it would be nice if humans were perfect ..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i've watched my karma repeat and unfold in mysterious but predictable ways.&lt;br /&gt;i'm good at watching it but not so good at changing it. maybe i'm not as&lt;br /&gt;interested in changing it as i am in eradicating it all. being an ascetic.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;the hunch that this world was an illusion was uncovered when i was pretty&lt;br /&gt;young. i have magic. but it more has me as i'm not able to control it very&lt;br /&gt;well. people without magic attempt to devalue mine, or people who have it&lt;br /&gt;and don't know or understand it do the same. look me over.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;my ideas on the nature of reality, many of which i developed in seclusion,&lt;br /&gt;were seen mirrored in ancient texts. i know i'm not that crazy at least.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;but to share this life is always a goal. it just might be a false desire&lt;br /&gt;though. i need to work on my self and the extents to which my mind travels&lt;br /&gt;scares the shit out of anyone who is not used to it, or has not seen it&lt;br /&gt;before. which makes doing this alone seem all the more plausable. i'm not&lt;br /&gt;attached to any certain way of this working itself out, i'm just floating ..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i'm ultra-creative. my muse is just shy. i've attempted to honour her and&lt;br /&gt;found ways to do that, but its hard, fasting, praying, coming down and being&lt;br /&gt;more aware of my consciousness. no one knows what those things are for, they&lt;br /&gt;think that being surrounded by stimulation constantly will set them free.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;maybe for them. but i have bigger dreams ...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;so the internet went down so i started writing. hmm.&lt;div

type='text'>from stoner to loner</title><content type='html'>Drugs drugs drugs .. I've done a lot of them, and sometimes the experience was&lt;br /&gt;good, sometimes it was bad; sometimes I saw my self change from it, others&lt;br /&gt;I just wanted more.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A big part of the drug scene is the social aspect. Some people have problems&lt;br /&gt;socializing with others out of context; that is to say, if they are not in a&lt;br /&gt;school, not working a job, not in any groups or programmes, then there is nothing&lt;br /&gt;that connects them to the people around them. Or if the people that they do have&lt;br /&gt;a chance to socialize with are just radically different ...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So the times that I have stopped using drugs were times when I had to find new&lt;br /&gt;social groups. My best friend is a pothead, and I can only take so much tempting&lt;br /&gt;from him. A lot of my friends are brought together by pot, by acid, by the search&lt;br /&gt;and the relaxation and the persecution, and often when either of us begins to see&lt;br /&gt;a negative effect on our lives because of this usage, we are immediatly out of the&lt;br /&gt;group.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Hey man, I quit smoking" is a common phrase heard as you pass someone who you used&lt;br /&gt;to hang out with, usually on the way to find some more.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Often times though, you find solace in the experience, that you share visions with&lt;br /&gt;someone, that they have similar thoughts on philosophy, religion, and morales, and&lt;br /&gt;also that there is often an urge to express, through music, through writing, through&lt;br /&gt;drawing. Some of them were quite good at what they did, but had no motivation to go&lt;br /&gt;through with this coming out of expressionism, often they sobered up and just became&lt;br /&gt;workaholics.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Some people went crazy. Some people just wanted to escape from themselves. Some just&lt;br /&gt;wanted life to be interesting because normally it didn't seem so. Some were lonely&lt;br /&gt;and appreciated the added dimensions the drugs showed them. Some were just addicted.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I was all of these and none of them at the same time. I do very well sober and can&lt;br /&gt;even take some company that is intoxicated. I'm different from a lot of druggies though;&lt;br /&gt;before I first began to use any types of drugs I read a *lot* about it. Surely you can't&lt;br /&gt;learn something solely from reading about it, but as I saw more and more blatent&lt;br /&gt;discrimination and misinformation being expressed by people who seemed to be operating&lt;br /&gt;out of fear and were afraid to lose control, I decided to give them a try, and its&lt;br /&gt;lead my life since then.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Kundalini began to arouse.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A few weeks after I began to smoke pot at 18, I felt an odd, but not unpleasant, burning&lt;br /&gt;sensation at the end of my tailbone. Later that day I had my first vision, after which&lt;br /&gt;I passed out for more than 20 hours. A year later I was connected with the first woman I&lt;br /&gt;ever got to know, again because of pot, and we both lost our minds that year, but they&lt;br /&gt;came back, at least for ME, but I got to experience the Oakland Rave Scene, and psychedelics,&lt;br /&gt;and exctasy ..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyhow after my mind began to stop working like it had normally worked I noticed that I had&lt;br /&gt;never enquired as to why my mind was doing what it did. Why I was who I was. I was mainly&lt;br /&gt;depressed and repressed and antisocial and unconfident with low self-esteem. Until the point&lt;br /&gt;that I lost my mind .. I got to look at how I was, and made a decision to change it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I found little information about my experience, and how the mind was actually&lt;br /&gt;composed, in modern psychiatry. I found lots of information on this in spiritual&lt;br /&gt;information, the kind weaved in and out of all things religious. Desire kept us&lt;br /&gt;alive.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nowadays I just have lots of anxiety. I've found that my diet is my drug of choice, that I&lt;br /&gt;eat to satisfy transitory emotions, and that it has profound effects on my mood and energy&lt;br /&gt;level. Though with desires as strong as mine are its hard to choose a diet of light food,&lt;br /&gt;vegetables, fruits, regular cleansing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A lot of the problems I have are symbolic. Some of them disappear with the&lt;br /&gt;slightest of approaches. The constant changing though ...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well, I'm still pretty delusional. I get to look at things from varying perspectives, I'd&lt;br /&gt;say. I have poor control of the excess amounts of creative energy I possess. I donno what&lt;br /&gt;to do. I live the life of someone in a movie. I've met the directors and discussed various&lt;br /&gt;plot changes, so all is not as bad as it seems. They keep giving me hints of what to say.&lt;br /&gt;Everyone else has a script but I have the privilage of being able to improvise.&lt;br /&gt;Constantly.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Some day I'll write a book about all of the things I've read and experienced.&lt;br /&gt;Then I'll probaly write another.&lt;br /&gt;5 pages a day. 5 days a week. 3 months. 300 pages. Could I use some editing skill?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lots of material to draw upon.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So this isn't all about drugs and social groups but drugs played a big part in me seeing&lt;br /&gt;through the illusions that were shown to me regarding life in the "real" world. For instance,&lt;br /&gt;I've met two people who say they were able to remove their need for glasses. But a doctor&lt;br /&gt;would never tell you about that, he just has to give you a prescription and increase it over&lt;br /&gt;time, guaranteeing him money. I might not get my vision back 20/20, but I might not have to&lt;br /&gt;wear these damned things ever again ...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So through all of this I've learned to trust in signs and visions more than anything&lt;br /&gt;else. And to look at the stars when I was uncertain as to which way to go.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I still remember the sign I saw on the day I asked if I should retreat to the mountains and&lt;br /&gt;vision quest, or try and have a relationship with a woman. It was clear as day though the&lt;br /&gt;night was dark. It didn't tell me which woman I should be with though; only that she would&lt;br /&gt;be shorter and probably plumper than I was. :D&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Oh, none of my time in the past was wasted, and through all of the confusion&lt;br /&gt;I have some good ideas. I could stop thinking now and just live off of pure&lt;br /&gt;inspiration. Or I could keep thinking and just stay in the atmosphere.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Creativity is definitally divine.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/14949812-8442212938470669543?l=terbospeed.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://terbospeed.blogspot.com/feeds/8442212938470669543/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=14949812&amp;postID=8442212938470669543' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14949812/posts/default/8442212938470669543'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14949812/posts/default/8442212938470669543'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://terbospeed.blogspot.com/2007/09/from-stoner-to-loner.html' title='from stoner to loner'/><author><name>Chad B.</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15925579548859087882</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_M1MeDQB7p7o/ShohXQi3m4I/AAAAAAAAAEs/M9PTx_R3GKs/S220/stepping-off-the-spaceship2.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14949812.post-3623823241364474789</id><published>2007-09-13T02:14:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-09-18T07:49:59.539-07:00</updated><title type='text'>why i write</title><content type='html'>It all began on a cold night in a hotel room in Oakland.&lt;br /&gt;I was sedated and out of my mind.&lt;br /&gt;I was seeing visions, closing my eyes and holding my hands&lt;br /&gt;in front of my eyes, and seeing the bones in my hands, and&lt;br /&gt;that image not fading.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I was working on a C1XS picurebook named yesbook.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I passed out that fateful night, and when I awoke that morning&lt;br /&gt;I found four lines of poetry beginning with "in the valley of awareness" ..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The memory of writing those lines has eluded me; and except for someone&lt;br /&gt;coming into my room and knowing my password and leaving it there, I assume&lt;br /&gt;something in me wrote it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It was the first creative writing I had done in over a year, and its the only writing&lt;br /&gt;from that period of time that I still have; nay, remember in my head.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;----&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I speculate that I began to write in this manner to remember where I was&lt;br /&gt;and to express it to those around me.&lt;br /&gt;My memory is very strange; I feel compartmentalized in what are called&lt;br /&gt;my mood swings.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;----&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Almost two years later I began to get the urge again, to write. The first writing&lt;br /&gt;was on a crystal voyage with my companion Terry. It began 'while meticously&lt;br /&gt;maneuvering amongst unnacompanied metamorphosis' ... typed into a cell phone.&lt;br /&gt;It seemed to be more a message to my self, than any form of art to share. I look&lt;br /&gt;back at the pieces from my other lives and still find new ways to interpret them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Others seem to be able to utilize certain parts of my expression though. Some&lt;br /&gt;have made livings from these pains and misunderstandings, but the prospect&lt;br /&gt;of being prosperous from my poetry drives my desire even wilder ..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;----&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I wrote a few more things after that, culminating on the day of the Annointment.&lt;br /&gt;I'm still convinced, by circumstance, that these writings are not so much to be&lt;br /&gt;shared as they are for me to look over and study; kind of bringing information&lt;br /&gt;down from hypnosis, but I have a hard time looking back at my self.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But in the sharing I often see things through others eyes that I couldn't see&lt;br /&gt;with my own.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On the day of the Annointment I had recieved an Apple Newton. It lacks a&lt;br /&gt;keyboard and input was done with a stylus and onboard keypad. Walking&lt;br /&gt;down the bike path in Ojai something came to mind; I realised that there was&lt;br /&gt;always something in my mind to be written but I had never had a way to record&lt;br /&gt;it at the time. Oh if I were happy with just writing on paper .. which I'm not.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So I began to write "I have been feeling very cold" and had finished a paragraph&lt;br /&gt;by the time I had reached a group of fellow indigents at 1913. After talking&lt;br /&gt;and hanging out for a bit more came to my mind; it was different though; it was&lt;br /&gt;so interesting that I found my self writing faster and faster to keep up with the&lt;br /&gt;thoughts.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That night I began to write more and more. Soon I was lost in this transcription.&lt;br /&gt;It was if a muse had awaken, and was giving this little child candy in increasing&lt;br /&gt;amounts. I was sitting on the bench down from Rainbow Bridge at 9pm and&lt;br /&gt;wrote something that I haven't looked back on yet; "somehow I wrote down the&lt;br /&gt;perfect buzz"...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That night I went home and began a ritual whose origins I am unaware of. I filled&lt;br /&gt;the small garage-turned-room I was living in with Jano into an incense filled landing&lt;br /&gt;signal. Six sticks burning, in 3 directions  -- and I was the fourth.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That night I wrote all night. I was on some private net, in the schizophrenia channel&lt;br /&gt;and began to write so much they were convinced I was simply pasting paragraphs.&lt;br /&gt;I have never, in my life, been in an altered state like that. It may have been related&lt;br /&gt;to the food and sleep deprivation caused by the intense depression I had&lt;br /&gt;experienced weeks before ...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So anyway since that night my muse has had little trouble showing itself. It seems&lt;br /&gt;to be integrating into me, and I can be inspired by the smallest of occurances. My&lt;br /&gt;only fault is of not having focus, but there are times when that can even be a bonus.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;---&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So I write to remember for my self. Its all diary writing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I also write to express to others what is happening to me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When it first began in 1999 I feverously used Google to&lt;br /&gt;find the odd word combinations that would arrise in my mind;&lt;br /&gt;and would find few results, but one of those results would be&lt;br /&gt;powerful and effect my world-view and questioning mind for the&lt;br /&gt;better .. so now I leave those same marks that I once was fueled by.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A lot of the things that I experience are not fully understood by our&lt;br /&gt;current culture; a lot of the things I experience I read about and formulate&lt;br /&gt;my own ideas; a lot of the things I experience need further articulation&lt;br /&gt;and I believe one day I will be able to provide this articulation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Theres something really wrong but theres something really right,&lt;br /&gt;in this experience. The lonlieness will be overcome.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One day someone, maybe me, will understand and utilize this.&lt;br /&gt;That day will be spectacular; the sun will stand still&lt;br /&gt;on this day.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(looking back ... let there be light)&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/14949812-3623823241364474789?l=terbospeed.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://terbospeed.blogspot.com/feeds/3623823241364474789/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=14949812&amp;postID=3623823241364474789' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14949812/posts/default/3623823241364474789'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14949812/posts/default/3623823241364474789'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://terbospeed.blogspot.com/2007/09/why-i-write.html' title='why i write'/><author><name>Chad B.</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15925579548859087882</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_M1MeDQB7p7o/ShohXQi3m4I/AAAAAAAAAEs/M9PTx_R3GKs/S220/stepping-off-the-spaceship2.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14949812.post-2686549141839335556</id><published>2007-09-12T10:15:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-09-18T07:54:24.920-07:00</updated><title type='text'>i asked my self a dangerous question, and the love died</title><content type='html'>the love died&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i tell my self, when i am having dreams of her,&lt;br /&gt;that it is just me, attaching to desire, false&lt;br /&gt;desire.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;the dreams are not wholly pleasurable, they&lt;br /&gt;are mysterious and forgotten easily, and&lt;br /&gt;they seem to be of me reliving a childhood&lt;br /&gt;fantasy, than of an actual event.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;when i am thinking of her, i tell myself that&lt;br /&gt;they are because i want to know that she is happy,&lt;br /&gt;not always that she accepts me and knows how&lt;br /&gt;to deal with me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i guess it will pass, all of this energy i've built&lt;br /&gt;up in my self, with a little of her help, her not&lt;br /&gt;watching where her energy goes effeciently.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i wanted to take a picture of a set of watermelons,&lt;br /&gt;descending in size, but at the right time, when&lt;br /&gt;the sunlight hit them perfectly, but i waited too&lt;br /&gt;long and the picture was gone. i am ok with missing&lt;br /&gt;the picture, there are always other pictures waiting&lt;br /&gt;to be captured and shared.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i wonder why so much of my life is caught up in my&lt;br /&gt;childhood. what of those experiences has been under&lt;br /&gt;my radar for so long, and is being resurfaced in my&lt;br /&gt;self work.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;learning about sexuality before most people did, and&lt;br /&gt;not learning about female interaction way after the&lt;br /&gt;others, i wonder why i'm so self-centered and childish&lt;br /&gt;to this day..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;a silly childhood dream to love and be loved by a woman.&lt;br /&gt;just dreams, they say, just my imagination that it might&lt;br /&gt;happen, just a coincidence that we would lock eyes and&lt;br /&gt;begin to fantasize ..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;just me picking at open wounds in feverish attempts to&lt;br /&gt;heal them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;putting on a song that 9 months ago made me awefully sad,&lt;br /&gt;as I had connected it with a woman, but now it makes me happy.&lt;br /&gt;i listened to it thousands of times on repeat, for what reason?&lt;br /&gt;now i know it by heart. days on end, windows i'm changing, silent&lt;br /&gt;hands, like its a virtue, holding on to damaged truth, like its&lt;br /&gt;a weapon, meant to hurt you ..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;having dreams about prior lives, looking at the Grand Cross in&lt;br /&gt;the sky, wondering when saturn will stop affecting me as it has&lt;br /&gt;been this entire time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;why does nothing fit into these categories i'm provided .. will&lt;br /&gt;i have to go out and make my own categories!?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;---&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;so I asked my self a dangerous question. it lead to insanity. I was quite&lt;br /&gt;comfortable in this insanity though I kept thinking that I was alone,&lt;br /&gt;the spirits and voices told me that I should look elsewhere for companionship.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ok no thats not what this is about. Its about flowers dying, the kind that grow&lt;br /&gt;from cracks in buildings, from cement fields, that survive though they are&lt;br /&gt;trampled upon by hordes of worker ants ...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I asked my self this question: What if this woman who was the&lt;br /&gt;object of my desire, who I attributed so much good to, who I spent so&lt;br /&gt;much energy trying to connect with, was not as such?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What if I was deluding myself? What if there was no goal such as to find&lt;br /&gt;someone actually appreciated the little things they could do to make you&lt;br /&gt;happy, and that you could make someone else happy and enjoy their laughter&lt;br /&gt;and smiles so much. If nothing I did intrigued her, and if she thought my life was&lt;br /&gt;not going anywhere and that we really didn't see eye-to-eye on critical issues ..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So its all true. I'm looked down upon and criticized and viewed with detached&lt;br /&gt;emotion. Ho hum. Living in a city that I don't like too much, though travel was the&lt;br /&gt;plan, I can drive across the country every month if it were fun enough, and as to&lt;br /&gt;the city .. just too much noise and dirt and ugly unhappy people. I prefer small&lt;br /&gt;towns where you can actually smile at people and befriend&lt;br /&gt;them if you want. Where everyone knows everyone :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Easier to succeed in those places, I believe. The alternative is to go back to Ojai&lt;br /&gt;and bide my time. Cleanse my self first, as this has had the most drastic effects on&lt;br /&gt;my mental and physical health I have ever seen. Possibly get a place if I can find&lt;br /&gt;one with lots of privacy and outdoor space, but its possible since I know almost&lt;br /&gt;half the town. Get a simple job to maintain a schedule, maybe tutoring ESL :)&lt;br /&gt;Maybe something simple that wouldn't require much effort, and of course cash&lt;br /&gt;is preferred.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pay more attention to my dream life, keep a stricter diet.  Start to organize my&lt;br /&gt;writing, and of course go to more poetry readings. Learn more about astrology.&lt;br /&gt;Everyone seems to be so interested in it, but doesn't take the simple steps to&lt;br /&gt;learn about it. :) So simple really. I'm honest about it though, and even some&lt;br /&gt;people who say they are honest have filters through which this truth has to be&lt;br /&gt;seen. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I donno, I asked my self a dangerous question, and it drove me insane.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm watching a kid write poetry on IRC. I think its good, I often tell him he should&lt;br /&gt;use it to heal himself. Speak the poetry, but since he is usually improvising it he&lt;br /&gt;could just get on stage and see where his mind went. I want to do the same, in&lt;br /&gt;fact its a higher goal, rip the script, perform meditation then grab ears and&lt;br /&gt;proceed to unleash  and without hesitation ..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;wish she wanted the same. oh well. :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Its funny I have quite a few ways to make money right now. I'm just not that&lt;br /&gt;interested in pursing them. What would I do if I had lots of money? Buy a big&lt;br /&gt;rig and travel the country? Buy a lot of electronic gear? I already have lots&lt;br /&gt;of things .. all I'm missing is a video camera and some focus. You can't&lt;br /&gt;buy focus and love. Hum. Well money isn't the only reason I will pursue&lt;br /&gt;one of the things initially. Underground hip hop is fun, so is freestyling,&lt;br /&gt;but I'm sure I am pinpointing the things that hold me back.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Women. The flow of energy in me imbalanced, internalized. Discipline and&lt;br /&gt;commitment, but when things change so often, how can you commit to any&lt;br /&gt;one thing?&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/14949812-2686549141839335556?l=terbospeed.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://terbospeed.blogspot.com/feeds/2686549141839335556/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=14949812&amp;postID=2686549141839335556' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14949812/posts/default/2686549141839335556'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14949812/posts/default/2686549141839335556'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://terbospeed.blogspot.com/2007/09/i-asked-my-self-dangerous-question-and.html' title='i asked my self a dangerous question, and the love died'/><author><name>Chad B.</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15925579548859087882</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_M1MeDQB7p7o/ShohXQi3m4I/AAAAAAAAAEs/M9PTx_R3GKs/S220/stepping-off-the-spaceship2.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14949812.post-2832383970151293856</id><published>2007-09-11T09:40:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-09-18T07:48:40.818-07:00</updated><title type='text'>the soulstice song [poem 3 - 12.2003]   Current mood: retrospective</title><content type='html'>On this summer solstice I was hopeless&lt;br /&gt;                very homeless&lt;br /&gt;                and with no destination&lt;br /&gt;        But beyond my wildest dream lies the explanation&lt;br /&gt;                right or wrong&lt;br /&gt;        And this last winter solstice I was thrust into a&lt;br /&gt;                large magnetic&lt;br /&gt;                electronic field&lt;br /&gt;        and my calculations had too much energy&lt;br /&gt;

say, and I'll keep this short not knowing what kind of&lt;br /&gt;time/attention you have available that I remember how you were when you&lt;br /&gt;were young, what little I provoked you to show, or you wanted me to see.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am both confused and amazed at how you can push people away with&lt;br /&gt;just a little bit of sugar. Enough. You uhaven't changed much in that manner. :-)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I like it. I wonder how .. who taught you that .. haha .. then we didn't have&lt;br /&gt;words to express but over lifetimes since then we have developed vocabulary.&lt;br /&gt;And other things.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I like more than anything the idea of 'you' in my mind. Which means I don't&lt;br /&gt;neccessarilly need you. This idea has caused me to make a few changes in m&lt;br /&gt;life, and makes me want to speed up this process, which is my salvation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I havent slept for more than 1 1/2 hours at a time for 5 days now.&lt;br /&gt;Everytime I start dreaming I wake up with racing thoughts. I just&lt;br /&gt;realized this, though its been happening for 8 years. I'm looking&lt;br /&gt;directly at it ..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So why did we meet up? I think it was being shown attention.&lt;br /&gt;And I and you wrote and had "dreams". And I knew you before.&lt;br /&gt;I guess I know you and don't need to know anymore. [missed things]&lt;br /&gt;Its just funny, that you have so many words and x amount of intelligence,&lt;br /&gt;but won't express yourself and can't .......&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I bet if I was a woman you would have found time and we would have hung out.&lt;br /&gt;If you were a guy we would have understood each other.&lt;br /&gt;Why do I have problems around females? Why are you afraid of me. .. .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;All of your decisions may not revolve around me but a lot of mine revolve&lt;br /&gt;around you, plain and simple. I want to know why. I'm in NYC and there&lt;br /&gt;are a lot of things to do but I want to see you. I need a friend. What do&lt;br /&gt;you need? Time alone? Well .. Ok, sure.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I simply want to say that it was fun chasing your white rabbit down the&lt;br /&gt;hole, and I will return to my self, that is my job and duty, for after this I&lt;br /&gt;will really be able to connect with people and love them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Taking you unseriously,&lt;br /&gt;chadagain"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"At war within himself&lt;br /&gt;Though she gave him the keys&lt;br /&gt;He trashed the whole kingdom&lt;br /&gt;And invited in thieves&lt;br /&gt;He looked at the whores&lt;br /&gt;With desirous eyes&lt;br /&gt;And asked "What more?"&lt;br /&gt;Counting the answers as lies&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They were heirs to the heavens&lt;br /&gt;They were a couple decided by birth&lt;br /&gt;They were married by blood&lt;br /&gt;And they were inseperable&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But he raced to the throne&lt;br /&gt;Leaving thoughts of her behind&lt;br /&gt;He longed to be alone&lt;br /&gt;But alone he would not feel fine&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They quarreled and scuffled&lt;br /&gt;Fought as if to the death&lt;br /&gt;To kill one another&lt;br /&gt;And to kiss in the next breath&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A tradgedy written in stone&lt;br /&gt;And everyone knew&lt;br /&gt;What to do in their own case&lt;br /&gt;But not what to do for these two&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For they had their own answers to work on..."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-Some 160 char SMS things-&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Minds on leashes dragging their humans around ..

Getting better I'll assume.&lt;br /&gt;(This is like a one way conversation, I'll fill&lt;br /&gt;in your responses)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm staying 2 hours north of the city, in a town named Millerton, which is part of the town called North East.&lt;br /&gt;I've been "guarding the couch" of a friend named Devon I met online when I was 19, and we've been talking back and forth for several years. Then when I was in North Carolina I decided to message him to find out that he lived here .. so we've been hanging out since :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hes kind of messy. So I've been cleaning up and throwing out all types of ancient dangerous food. He works on computers all day, makes decent money (gave me his old laptop .. :O), comes home and either plays video games (guitar hero 2) or gets on his computer and talks to his new girlfriend who is in Las Vegas. They knew each other from high school and recently met up and began dating. Or something like that.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So you just got on AIM. I'll send this if you want something to read. :) I don't know what you want or how to communicate fully with you, but if you must know, all of my life has been an uphill journey with few roadmarks and signs, so you intrigue me greatly. :D&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I wish I had an easier time in my life. Its been pretty unforgiving. I never know if what I'm doing is right or not. Occasionally I get some praise for something I did that was really good. Not enough though.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sometimes I'm really excitable. You may have heard me like that on the phone before; I have a hard time being mindfull in my speech and I know that bothers you; it has its pluses and minuses: my imrovisation seems to come when I can totally withdraw my self from my speaking ability, not being fully conscious of it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sometimes I say things that aren't on my conscious mind, that are from my subconscious, and then I use that to lead myself to what I can say next. Umm, sometimes I just say stupid stuff. :X So I don't really like it always. Being mindfull has always been a goal, but since I was young, I could feel my energy going out of my entire self, refusing to be focused, and I have too little discipline, but something drives me .. something great, I'd like to say. I have plans on fixing these things in me. I just don't seem to always *want* to do it, and would rather follow my desires and emotional wants. I know they arent the best compass though. I found a good compass .. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway. I don't know if you look at astrology. Its interesting to me. I just made a semi-accurate chart for my self. Supposedly an aries/virgo relationship is difficult. If you have emotions that you can't .. do anything with? (for lack of better lucidity on the subject) I understand. Mine are overwhelming when I get attention from some women. I don't know why. Anyway.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I like to talk a lot, heh. I like to be very calm and relaxed and aware of my surroundings too. I think its my diet. I've been unable to figure out exactly whats been going on with me for a long time. And no one has noticed that I wasn't here. Its kind of saddening but lots of good things have come from it too.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'll message you. Take care. I have questions about you.&lt;br /&gt;I'm not sure you'd respond? A lot of people have a hard time trusting me, maybe because I find it hard to trust my self when its always changing. But I have stopped the changing regardless of what the doctors have said. Its just very, very hard. I think if I figured it out I could help a lot of people out of this maze. I see lots of people trapped like I am.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway. You take care strong woman. If you want to work out our different forms of communication I'd be pleased to put my effort into it.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/14949812-4808187803327091825?l=terbospeed.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://terbospeed.blogspot.com/feeds/4808187803327091825/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=14949812&amp;postID=4808187803327091825' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14949812/posts/default/4808187803327091825'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14949812/posts/default/4808187803327091825'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://terbospeed.blogspot.com/2007/08/halo-miss-nelly.html' title='halo miss nelly'/><author><name>Chad B.</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15925579548859087882</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_M1MeDQB7p7o/ShohXQi3m4I/AAAAAAAAAEs/M9PTx_R3GKs/S220/stepping-off-the-spaceship2.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14949812.post-5202982912327824595</id><published>2007-08-17T15:02:00.002-07:00</published><updated>2007-09-18T08:27:22.305-07:00</updated><title type='text'>tarot with lil**</title><content type='html'>-:- terbo [~terbo@pool-71-189-174-23.lsanca.fios.verizon.net] has joined tarot&lt;br /&gt;-:- Topic (tarot): COTD: Ace of Wands, Temprance, and King of Cups&lt;br /&gt;-:- Topic (tarot): set by belter!belter@obta.net at Tue Aug 14 18:08:08 2007&lt;br /&gt;-:- [Users(tarot:4)]&lt;br /&gt;[ terbo ] [@lil** ] [@napalm` ] [@belter ]&lt;br /&gt;-:- Channel tarot was created at Tue Jul 19 12:44:15 2005&lt;br /&gt;-:- BitchX: Join to tarot was synched in 0.100 secs!!&lt;br /&gt;tarot terbo H ~terbo@pool-71-189-174-23.lsanca.fios.verizon.net (perfection through infinite possibliities)&lt;br /&gt;tarot lil** H@ lil**@207-207-84-17.ip.theriver.com (lil**)&lt;br /&gt;tarot napalm` H@ ~sodium@pool-71-112-153-58.sttlwa.dsl-w.verizon.net (sodium hydroxide)&lt;br /&gt;tarot belter H@ belter@obta.net (ellegua)&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] the card of the day is the card of yesterday?&lt;br /&gt;[lil**] i haven't pulled any so far today&lt;br /&gt;[lil**] hang on and i'll change them&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] ;p&lt;br /&gt;-:- Topic (tarot): changed by lil**: COTDs: Heirophant, 9 Cups, Knight of Cups&lt;br /&gt;[lil**] so you going to read them?&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] hmmm .. online or something?&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] I don't own a set, dont think I shall ever&lt;br /&gt;* terbo searches&lt;br /&gt;[lil**] i just got you 3 cards least you could do is read them :P&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] I thought they were general cards :P I didn't know they were specifically for me :)&lt;br /&gt;* terbo is kind of down/out of it at the moment&lt;br /&gt;[lil**] they are for whomever wants them - if you are down and out take them its pretty good&lt;br /&gt;* terbo writes out what hes afreid of&lt;br /&gt;* terbo runs out of ink, goes to the store to buy another pack of pens&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I wrote:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm afraid I'll always be wandering alone and unable to express myself.&lt;br /&gt;I'm afraid that this woman I've found doesn't want to be with me, or I&lt;br /&gt;have not done enough, or the right thing, or the wrong things .. or shes&lt;br /&gt;playing with me, or wont decide until i've left for CA and started doing&lt;br /&gt;drugs again ...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;[lil**] lol&lt;br /&gt;[lil**] you have a computer right there just type it out&lt;br /&gt;* terbo actually hasn't used a pen in years, avoids the things&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] just making jokes to cover up my easy distractedness, i forgot what i was doing&lt;br /&gt;[lil**] i like to draw with them&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] ya .. i havnt drawn in years either, seems like my mind usually gets in the way&lt;br /&gt;[lil**] throw it out&lt;br /&gt;* terbo wishes&lt;br /&gt;[lil**] well sit on your hands then and be miserable&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] ;p&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] being miserable seems to be part of the plan sometimes&lt;br /&gt;* terbo is still reading the card's explanation&lt;br /&gt;[lil**] your choice&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] Either give up that which you fear to lose so it no longer holds any power over you, or consider what you will still have if your fear comes to&lt;br /&gt;pass.&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] Hmm. That doesn't seem to work in my case.&lt;br /&gt;* terbo keeps reedin&lt;br /&gt;* terbo wonders&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] I read a daily astrology reading today that was pretty eery. Been reading eery daily readings for a while .. ;..&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] regarding an aries and a virgo ..&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] Me and her were talking about her asking for help; she broke her foot and is having a hard time getting around the house and doing things, and will&lt;br /&gt;be recovering for a few months&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] Yesterday; then today I read on astro.com, mine was 'someone will ask you for help' and hers 'you will be having company'&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] its been doing that for a couple of months now. ;..&lt;br /&gt;[lil**] doesn't sound like it is working very well&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] no I'm just down at the moment ;p&lt;br /&gt;[lil**] just want to spread it around some? i'd prefer not to go to the down place thanks very much&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] hehe, no I'm smiling, really all of this stuff is pretty good&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] I'm just impatient I guess :)&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] and shes very patient&lt;br /&gt;[lil**] welcome to the crowd&lt;br /&gt;[lil**] sometimes there is no choice but to have patience&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] Oh I understand. There are just concrete reasons why I'm not patient :)&lt;br /&gt;* terbo wonders if you follow astrology&lt;br /&gt;[lil**] i used to do charts but haven't in years&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] I just read about it, the similarities its description of personalities is interesting&lt;br /&gt;[lil**] just sun sign is too general it takes more to get anything really accurate&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] yea, I notice certain people get along right off the bat, certain people have conflicts that seem predetermine&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] so a card about fear, a card about wishes, and a card about a romantic knight&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] ?&lt;br /&gt;[lil**] your first reading was a good one - release that which you fear and be happy what you want is coming to you - or alternatively - if you take the&lt;br /&gt;proper path in joy you will get the invitation you are waiting for&lt;br /&gt;[belter] groovi&lt;br /&gt;[lil**] hi belter&lt;br /&gt;[lil**] so why must you be so patient and have you told her how difficult it is being for you (sometimes troubles shared are troubles lessened)&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] well. i live 3000 miles from here; i drove; and i'll have to go back soon, i'm just staying with friends&lt;br /&gt;* terbo wonders if he can even picture the entire story correctly ;p&lt;br /&gt;[lil**] that's pretty good so far&lt;br /&gt;[lil**] so you are where she is now and you are sulking?&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] plus i usually sedate myself, stopped to be around her, but last time i stopped i had to fast - i couldnt fast so i'm pretty variable at the moment,&lt;br /&gt;for the past month&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] well. i'm north of new york city, she lives there, we went to grade school there&lt;br /&gt;* terbo donno, hes learned a lot since we began talking, thats pretty useful&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] like i shouldn't stop sedating myself unless i can fast for a week or more :P&lt;br /&gt;[lil**] sounds like you have gone a bit off the deep end&lt;br /&gt;* terbo LIVES underwater&lt;br /&gt;[lil**] why the need for sedation or starvation?&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] umm, i'm diagnosed, but never taken medication, been working on my self, and found some interesting things out&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] like that having something thats supposed to "never" go away, having cured it on my own, and disbelieving what most people say/experience&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] fasting fixed it basically ;p and a radical diet, at least for some period of time, which i never experienced before - balance&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] i began to write after some of those experiences, every day, pages and pages&lt;br /&gt;[lil**] a proper diet is crucial to helping self but what's up with the fasting sedation thing?&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] well i've had a pretty ok diet since i stopped. thing is, last time i stopped i was so depressed i starved for a week, and after that, just ended up&lt;br /&gt;being balanced.&lt;br /&gt;* terbo has only been writing about these things for several years now - sorry if I can't conclude them on command ;p&lt;br /&gt;[lil**] no biggie you don't owe me any explanation&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] and I've found few people who actually comprehend them :) shes smart though. but I don't know, I wasn't attracted to /her/ per-se, but more there&lt;br /&gt;began to be signs around when I met her&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] she was the 3rd woman that these signs pointed to, and then they stopped. so I kind of thought, hmm, interesting&lt;br /&gt;[lil**] what sort of signs?&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] well. honestly, I don't get attracted to women very often&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] maybe it was more inside of me. the signs, and I saw one woman, and began to speak with her about a relationship&lt;br /&gt;[lil**] may i ask what the diagnosis was?&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] umm, I think it was bi-polar, or whatever it is this year&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] but thats such an understatement, I don't follow psychology&lt;br /&gt;* terbo has researched schizophrenia/mystical experience for several years&lt;br /&gt;[lil**] ok i understand better now -&lt;br /&gt;[lil**] bi-polar isn't schizophrenia&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] yea&lt;br /&gt;[lil**] are you psychotic or just have mystical abilities&lt;br /&gt;[belter] this is self defeating, There's a national chain called crispers. and they are evil incarite... they make mini cookies... and i'm playing a shooter&lt;br /&gt;game... and the only time i can grab a cookie is when i die and the game loads&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] does it cost money to die? hehe&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] lil**, a little bit of both.&lt;br /&gt;[lil**] belter that sounds evil&lt;br /&gt;[lil**] can you tell which bit is which?&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] i'm often not in a shared reality with others. makes it hard to connect with a lot of people, though when I try and "come" down to where they are, I&lt;br /&gt;find it trivial and artificial&lt;br /&gt;[lil**] can you tell which bit is which?&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] I don't try and guess whats on peoples minds or levitate objects. I mainly deal with intuition or, information..&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] I don't know if I can even answer that&lt;br /&gt;[lil**] its sort of important&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] ok let me try&lt;br /&gt;[lil**] if you can tell what is pure intuition and what is imagination then you aren't really ill just other abled&lt;br /&gt;* terbo doesn't know if at this moment he can really understan&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] :X&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] how about I take a walk, thanks for talking with me, I have a small circle of friends and we talk about this stuff a lot of the time on irc&lt;br /&gt;* terbo heads to the store to feel 'convienent'&lt;br /&gt;[lil**] ok ttyl&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] well. I've been fighting with not smoking for a while. decided against it. lol. I'm not sure what kind of answer you're looking for&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] like a specific experience?&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] As far as intuition, I often feel lead to certain things, places, and to meet certain people&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] Imagination, umm, this relationship between me and her is imagination, I'm trying to make it come true&lt;br /&gt;.----------------------------------------- -- -&lt;br /&gt;| lil** (lil**@207-207-84-17.ip.theriver.com) (Commercial)&lt;br /&gt;: ircname : lil**&lt;br /&gt;| channels : @tarot @art&lt;br /&gt;| server : irc.blackened.com (wannabe: drama free zone)&lt;br /&gt;: idle : 0 hours 3 mins 41 secs (signon: Wed Aug 15 09:38:06 2007)&lt;br /&gt;[lil**] how does she feel about it real world&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] we don't talk about it much. she says she wants a friend, but makes gestures otherwise, and is really critical of my words often which is hard&lt;br /&gt;because I let them flow very easily&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] though she doesn't tell me to stop. or not to think about her in that manner.&lt;br /&gt;[lil**] well if you can't be patient then you need to ask her flat out if she would consider a relationship with you&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] BTW 85% of the people I talk to about whats going on between us say shes not the right girl for me :P&lt;br /&gt;[lil**] what do you care what other folks say&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] Well. I think that would force her to make up her mind. I don't think she has, or shes confused&lt;br /&gt;[lil**] its between you and her&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] lil**: I take a little bit of it, but really, I'm very interested in her and its possible that we could learn very much from each other&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] either in a relationship or not, even being friends, but she has few friends and is a pretty private person&lt;br /&gt;[lil**] so perhaps you should just enjoy it for what it is and where it is at right now&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] except she doesn't share any of her writing :| I got her to share some of it though&lt;br /&gt;[lil**] she'll share when she is ready&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] yea. ya know if I had something to do other than sit on irc and surf the web I'd probaly not be impatient. lo.&lt;br /&gt;[lil**] well get something else to do&lt;br /&gt;* terbo hasn't had anything to do for many years, a decade&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] Recorded a song two weeks ago. heh.&lt;br /&gt;[lil**] you need something to work at&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] yea. I kind of do work at stuff, I just don't/can't put a majority of my energy into it&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] when I was balanced though. it seemed I had lots more control over my energy.&lt;br /&gt;[terbo] I read this web site today.

I also somehow know it costs at least $40 a plate. I walk into there,&lt;br /&gt;am warmly greeted, and asked for my name. I write it down, and then think, maybe Nelly would like&lt;br /&gt;to join me.. then I realise that I've forgotten both my wallet and my phone, so I say I will return,&lt;br /&gt;as they ask "are you sure?" and I go "yes, yes".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then I am at Nelly's house. I am inside, and there are several people, young kids, older people,&lt;br /&gt;people our age. For some reason I bring my laptop up. Nelly is her big self, happy and jovial,&lt;br /&gt;but obviously excited by all of the company, and at one point I remember looking into her eyes&lt;br /&gt;and it didn't seem to register to her.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I remember leaving for some reason. Then I begin to wonder, where does she live? (Funny because I went&lt;br /&gt;there ..) and I look at the numbers on the front of the apartment, and one is 777, which excites me, then&lt;br /&gt;I notice that there are two more, one 4 something, and one 5 something.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I go back upstairs, and somehow what I do gets called up, and Nelly answers for me, and says something ..&lt;br /&gt;I think I said I spend most of my time on the internet, right now. SOme kid remarks that I probaly have a&lt;br /&gt;lot of .. something. To which I reply, I'm a graphic designer, poet and writer. Bitch! I didn't like the&lt;br /&gt;last part. As I am going to leave I guess I have no shoes, or can't find mine, and Nelly gives me hers.&lt;br /&gt;They are slightly smaller than mine, and instead of blue/silver are white/red. She says to get some&lt;br /&gt;without bridges, when I notice that my toes are slightly crunched.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After I leave I notice that I have no shoes again. I pass a car and ponder sleeping in it, I wonder where&lt;br /&gt;my car was.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The other 2 are on my other laptop, will get the AC later.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/14949812-3719908890958204070?l=terbospeed.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://terbospeed.blogspot.com/feeds/3719908890958204070/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=14949812&amp;postID=3719908890958204070' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14949812/posts/default/3719908890958204070'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14949812/posts/default/3719908890958204070'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://terbospeed.blogspot.com/2007/08/three-dreams-revolving-around-nelly.html' title='three dreams revolving around nelly'/><author><name>Chad B.</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15925579548859087882</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_M1MeDQB7p7o/ShohXQi3m4I/AAAAAAAAAEs/M9PTx_R3GKs/S220/stepping-off-the-spaceship2.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14949812.post-3180318196173760149</id><published>2007-08-17T14:49:00.002-07:00</published><updated>2007-09-18T08:37:48.055-07:00</updated><title type='text'>sycron-eyes</title><content type='html'>seperated by words&lt;br /&gt;part of me thought it silly&lt;br /&gt;part of me didnt think about it at all&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;and im still not thinking&lt;br /&gt;she was the greatest thing that ever existed&lt;br /&gt;and took the greatest pains to resist it&lt;br /&gt;how .. may i show the ways&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;well ... syncron-eyes later&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/14949812-3180318196173760149?l=terbospeed.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://terbospeed.blogspot.com/feeds/3180318196173760149/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=14949812&amp;postID=3180318196173760149' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14949812/posts/default/3180318196173760149'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14949812/posts/default/3180318196173760149'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://terbospeed.blogspot.com/2007/08/sycron-eyes.html' title='sycron-eyes'/><author><name>Chad B.</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15925579548859087882</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_M1MeDQB7p7o/ShohXQi3m4I/AAAAAAAAAEs/M9PTx_R3GKs/S220/stepping-off-the-spaceship2.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14949812.post-1764795526870557833</id><published>2007-08-17T14:49:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2007-09-18T08:36:57.048-07:00</updated><title type='text'>psychotic</title><content type='html'>So its nice to say, when you don't have the knowledge, language, or true experiences (really, they must&lt;br /&gt;show themselves to you) about the unknown, to discount others, or even group fruadulent people (seekers&lt;br /&gt;of money/fame/greed) into groups with other people who won't communicate their experiences so well.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway my experiences began when I was 5. Shortly after my mother passed I felt her presence in my room,&lt;br /&gt;and a touch on my shoulder as I was trying to go to sleep. It was slightly starteling, but did not have&lt;br /&gt;its intended comforting effect. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;22 years later, my grandmother is telling me about the time when my mother passed, and tells me of having&lt;br /&gt;the same experience, very shortly after her daughter passed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I do not remember ever telling her about my experience; for the longest time I thought I was hallucinating or&lt;br /&gt;possibly crazy, but after hearing her tell me she had the same experience, and after having my mother come&lt;br /&gt;into my dreams once (that I remember, since I have removed my dreams for several years), and my great grandmother&lt;br /&gt;come into my dreams, and into my grandmothers dreams to give her a *winning* lottery number worth several&lt;br /&gt;thousand dollars, I am sure that the form of reality we inhabit is just plain not what they say it is.&lt;br /&gt;I mean, more than sure, =D&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Western psychology has no explanation for psychic phenomena, or really anything that fits outside of their&lt;br /&gt;very limited view of the mind and its functioning (to learn about the mind, discover buddhism, and then try&lt;br /&gt;it for yourself.) They were sort of developed using diametrically opposing methods, so I can't say that&lt;br /&gt;either is totally wrong, but where I live it seems no one has compassion or self-awareness, and mindfullness,&lt;br /&gt;so I have to think that the east takes it on this one. Yet again ...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So I'm psychotic. That means I should be left alone, right? No, it means that I have a hard time expressing&lt;br /&gt;why my experience is so different than most others, why I am super creative, how I can live with quite a&lt;br /&gt;bit of money and never have to work or steal or fraud people .. but it seems I am destined to be alone, with&lt;br /&gt;only superficial friends that I have to bring up, otherwise they subconsciously seek to bring me down, and&lt;br /&gt;those that can bring me up I seem to flee from, or they seem to not think I am worthy ..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I don't know I am in a transitory process. Being in New York City really doesn't help. For another woman&lt;br /&gt;who is just going to abuse me again. Hooray Karma, I'm going back to Cali soon.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/14949812-1764795526870557833?l=terbospeed.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://terbospeed.blogspot.com/feeds/1764795526870557833/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=14949812&amp;postID=1764795526870557833' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14949812/posts/default/1764795526870557833'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14949812/posts/default/1764795526870557833'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://terbospeed.blogspot.com/2007/08/psychotic.html' title='psychotic'/><author><name>Chad B.</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15925579548859087882</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_M1MeDQB7p7o/ShohXQi3m4I/AAAAAAAAAEs/M9PTx_R3GKs/S220/stepping-off-the-spaceship2.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14949812.post-4794821335890531809</id><published>2007-08-17T14:49:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-09-18T08:35:14.363-07:00</updated><title type='text'>care / nelly</title><content type='html'>It was not always pleasant, the process of growing&lt;br /&gt;but if you were able to look back and see that you&lt;br /&gt;had grown over that period of time, then you could&lt;br /&gt;see that it had been worth it&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nelly have you had any experiences of growth&lt;br /&gt;since we began communicating again? I don't&lt;br /&gt;know about yourself. I have. With you in mind&lt;br /&gt;I have made some changes in my life that seemed&lt;br /&gt;impossible alone, with only the idea of you behind me,&lt;br /&gt;a union to grow in..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm not always sure if two people can grow together.&lt;br /&gt;There are lots of ups and downs and realizations&lt;br /&gt;that cause emotional pains ... but as I said when&lt;br /&gt;we first began speaking I am ready my self to grow&lt;br /&gt;and wished to do it in an intimate relationship with&lt;br /&gt;one person, but if it is not now your time to grow&lt;br /&gt;and reflect on all of the experiences that have built&lt;br /&gt;you and release a lot of the negative things and&lt;br /&gt;share the positive things .. then I must respect that.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I would love to take care of you Nelly. Its in my&lt;br /&gt;personality, I wish to care for others, but if you&lt;br /&gt;don't accept my care I will not be hurt. I myself&lt;br /&gt;have built up defenses, and I guess they have&lt;br /&gt;taken on the form of being irresponsible and mindless&lt;br /&gt;and generally weird, unsociable .. I dont know I&lt;br /&gt;have let my hair grow and have not changed it much.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I wish to change. I think you are a wonderful woman.&lt;br /&gt;Beneath all of the layers accumulated, beyond all of&lt;br /&gt;the dreams and the inspirations for them, I believe&lt;br /&gt;you need to express yourself, and feel free, and be&lt;br /&gt;comfortable, a certain comfort ... I wish I could&lt;br /&gt;offer that to you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway those are some ramblings.

He's been playing for several&lt;br /&gt;years but has never gotten "good enough" for him to see his self as good.&lt;br /&gt;We still had a lot of fun. We plugged the devices into his M-Audio sound&lt;br /&gt;adapter, which plugged into my car, and had good sound for all to hear.&lt;br /&gt;We also recorded it and took a couple of short videos.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I can't sleep, even though the other night I stayed up for 35+ hours and&lt;br /&gt;went to sleep half drunk. Before that drunkeness, I was drunk and ate a&lt;br /&gt;meal of rice and sprouts and regained some sobriety. I woke up pretty&lt;br /&gt;tired but was urged out of bed by my companion.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Some of the thoughts that are circulating in my tired but restless mind&lt;br /&gt;concern digestive problems, western societies trap, and apparently failed&lt;br /&gt;romancess.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I had a good talk with "mbird" on IRC about digestion. I read a document&lt;br /&gt;(on del.icio.us under schizophrenia and digestion) that spoke of eastern&lt;br /&gt;medicinal approaches to schizophrenia, found as the first result in the&lt;br /&gt;google search "eastern medicine schizophrenia". It stated that out of 400&lt;br /&gt;people who took a certain concoction better than %90 of them had relieved&lt;br /&gt;symptoms. Since the idea of schizophrenia is still debated and its definition&lt;br /&gt;widely variable, I have my doubts; however it rang true as I have had my&lt;br /&gt;own personal experiences with poor digestion and my mental clarity.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Twice in my life I have felt like my self for extended periods lasting as&lt;br /&gt;long as 3 months. These experiences were precluded by fasting and alterations&lt;br /&gt;in my dietary habits.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I do not know for sure but it seems as though western medicine does not treat&lt;br /&gt;properly digestion problems. So many people eat improperly and overstress&lt;br /&gt;themselves that doctors would be overwhelmed if they did. Besides, they would&lt;br /&gt;most likely have some pharmaceutical method of dealing with an anomoly caused&lt;br /&gt;by over-consumption; how ironicly sinister.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Western Society is a trap. I do not mean this in a bad way; more so it is a trap&lt;br /&gt;in which only the strongest will escape from; only those who can see its trappings&lt;br /&gt;and elevate themselves above it will be allowed to properly move on. Enlightenment&lt;br /&gt;is not a far fetched idea it is an improperly related idea and I have experienced&lt;br /&gt;it. It is why I am alive today, for if I knew that my life were to always be not&lt;br /&gt;under my control and my suffering feeling so real I would have allowed more&lt;br /&gt;serious mental discussion of self termination.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Speaking of life I wonder if these woman will ever leave my mind alone. I allow&lt;br /&gt;it I confess but is it them and their affection that I want or is it a pointer&lt;br /&gt;to my own childhood that begs for resolution? I cannot determine but I have not&lt;br /&gt;put forth definite effort towards the latter idea so I am still in disagreement&lt;br /&gt;with my senses. However strong they are.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/14949812-7129362700650358850?l=terbospeed.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://terbospeed.blogspot.com/feeds/7129362700650358850/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=14949812&amp;postID=7129362700650358850' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14949812/posts/default/7129362700650358850'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14949812/posts/default/7129362700650358850'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://terbospeed.blogspot.com/2007/07/write-to-sleep.html' title='Write to Sleep'/><author><name>Chad B.</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15925579548859087882</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_M1MeDQB7p7o/ShohXQi3m4I/AAAAAAAAAEs/M9PTx_R3GKs/S220/stepping-off-the-spaceship2.jpg'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14949812.post-8226770764392607103</id><published>2007-07-22T11:58:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-07-22T23:29:51.722-07:00</updated><title type='text'>i cant stop writing</title><content type='html'>5:37 AM 7/22/2007&lt;br /&gt;I just can't stop writing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The last few weeks have seemed pretty intense to me.&lt;br /&gt;The last couple of months have been quite surreal.&lt;br /&gt;The year up until now has been different than any other year, of course though ..&lt;br /&gt;Last night was a dream and as usual I have an embedded fear of waking up.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I don't even know where to start.&lt;br /&gt;But it is time to get a camera and many terror bytes. There is much bandwidth&lt;br /&gt;available now, and storage and documentation shall commence.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Bhavagita audio book from krishna.com is playing just low enough to hear.&lt;br /&gt;This is the first inscription on my new laptop, forgetparadox. Devon rules.&lt;br /&gt;I met him when I was living in Oakland, at age 19, the year that I first&lt;br /&gt;noticed my insanity, and began questioning my world view, and first ingested&lt;br /&gt;psychedelics. We've talked over the internet from various continents and states,&lt;br /&gt;and we got to meet face to face for the first time yesterday. I drove 12 hours&lt;br /&gt;non-stop from north carolina to new york, just a few steps from [the keyboard&lt;br /&gt;just became uncomfortable .. and I had to jack one] conneticut. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He is reconnecting with a girl he has thought about since high school. It is&lt;br /&gt;nice to watch. They are talking about being together when they die and all sorts&lt;br /&gt;of other romantic things. They've been on the phone for the past few hours. He&lt;br /&gt;even called her and handed me the phone and coerced me to talk about my many&lt;br /&gt;romantic failings. A life long pursuit.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A handicapped gay kid has been hitting on me from australia. IRC has been fun.&lt;br /&gt;I've been pondering getting another passport and going to see a kid in canada&lt;br /&gt;who has interesting psychic and psychotic experiences. Outside is one form of&lt;br /&gt;social interaction, and IRc is another, face to face doesn't seem to always be&lt;br /&gt;the same when your eyes are jaded. I wonder if second life will run here ...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;[fell asleep/passed out] Woke not remembering my dreams, though I know I had&lt;br /&gt;experiences between sleeping and waking. I wonder why Devon and Sabrina have&lt;br /&gt;such a connection, it seems psychic, spiritual, friendly, and beyond .. I meet&lt;br /&gt;Devon and we strike up a good relation but with a female there seems to be so&lt;br /&gt;much more involved .. oh, emotion. Why? I guess psychology.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We start to hang out and my eating habits rub off on him. I've also been trying&lt;br /&gt;to help him keep his place a little cleaner. :) Remember dreams. He seems to be&lt;br /&gt;worried about a soul-connection that seems so genuine. I wonder why; he keeps&lt;br /&gt;asking me for 'philosophical' advice. It has to be related to insecurity. I had&lt;br /&gt;the same thing. They are communicating a lot, but what is being unsaid? Hmm.&lt;br /&gt;Dreams probaly know all but the greatest psychics will charge for.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I think I started writing to organize my thoughts. I don't want to put forth&lt;br /&gt;effort for certain things in my life, organization being one of them. And also to&lt;br /&gt;express my self better. Neither seem to have worked ... ;x&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I wondered why I was attracted to certain people in my childhood. It could have&lt;br /&gt;been because we posessed certain things that would grow into things that we would&lt;br /&gt;need in the future. One girl, I would later be attracted to her creative mind.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well you can't look behind you when you are on stage. I saw this on the Dave Chappelle&lt;br /&gt;show. The one with fear factor and the crack head. It was hilarious. :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Fung Shui. I don't do it with my mind. But I feel the need in the world around me.&lt;br /&gt;We seem to use intellect for too many things. Lots of things need organizing and&lt;br /&gt;proper placement for fullest energetic benefit. The spirit guides in heavenly ways.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/14949812-8226770764392607103?l=terbospeed.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://terbospeed.blogspot.com/feeds/8226770764392607103/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=14949812&amp;postID=8226770764392607103' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14949812/posts/default/8226770764392607103'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14949812/posts/default/8226770764392607103'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://terbospeed.blogspot.com/2007/07/i-cant-stop-writing.html' title='i cant stop writing'/><author><name>Chad B.</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15925579548859087882</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_M1MeDQB7p7o/ShohXQi3m4I/AAAAAAAAAEs/M9PTx_R3GKs/S220/stepping-off-the-spaceship2.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14949812.post-5720772710588558529</id><published>2007-07-18T00:46:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-07-22T01:04:47.346-07:00</updated><title type='text'>de liber ate con cise in un dation (NJS)</title><content type='html'>I'm regretfull for my words, they cause &lt;br /&gt;things to change, for the worse and for the better. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am not adjusted to society. Its why I live outside. [of it] &lt;br /&gt;This morning our conversations went through my head, &lt;br /&gt;in a fashion similar to how a life flashes before &lt;br /&gt;someones eyes when they believe they are near death. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I guess I thought that if we were able to speak &lt;br /&gt;face to face you could see how I am, that I am not &lt;br /&gt;really well, and could adjust your perspective of me &lt;br /&gt;to take account for that. I havent been intoxicated &lt;br /&gt;for weeks yet I still am pretty variable; the last &lt;br /&gt;time I did that I fasted and ate extremely well, &lt;br /&gt;but this time I was unable to do that "due to my &lt;br /&gt;grandmothers influence"; its actually a very hard &lt;br /&gt;thing to do, to stop eating or to eat with only &lt;br /&gt;your intestines in mind. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For instance, when I told you to tell me more &lt;br /&gt;things that would make me not like you, that was &lt;br /&gt;not a good response. I wasn't sensitive to your &lt;br /&gt;feelings then, and I'm sorry. I feel like I have &lt;br /&gt;to say a lot of things and sometimes I can't remind &lt;br /&gt;myself that they may affect someones feelings. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I've "decided" to stop writing; I would rather improvise, &lt;br /&gt;and working on my speech and thoughts is how it will be &lt;br /&gt;done. I'm not working class and I thought you shouldn't &lt;br /&gt;be either, but maybe I'm wrong. I was amazed when I saw &lt;br /&gt;how you grew up. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I like that you posted your recent picture online. &lt;br /&gt;I don't know how to express what I feel when I see it &lt;br /&gt;because I think that you are sensitive to how people &lt;br /&gt;see you, but I am glad that you did it. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Maybe I didn't want to go to the reunion because I knew &lt;br /&gt;how they would see me, as crazy, and would not return the &lt;br /&gt;joy that I had experienced from the work that I've done &lt;br /&gt;to get to this point. I guess that you may have felt the &lt;br /&gt;same way. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm writing this just to close the thoughts in my mind &lt;br /&gt;though I know that they will never cease. My problem is &lt;br /&gt;not that I never get time to my self, it is that no one &lt;br /&gt;sees my creations as anything but some art to be placed &lt;br /&gt;by all other art that they cannot comprehend. Like when &lt;br /&gt;I "wrote" (quoted because I was kind of .. in a state) &lt;br /&gt;you those three poems. You had one word for them, "angry". &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Another friend read them, and so quickly and without retort &lt;br /&gt;that I knew that he could not feel their depth. You, you &lt;br /&gt;channeled your anger and put it into that poem, and I felt &lt;br /&gt;it, to much so, and it caused me to write those. You spoke &lt;br /&gt;magic at that time, not anything else, but you yourself were &lt;br /&gt;unable to hear it and may never know its power. Many people &lt;br /&gt;speak magic; the problem is that it is often created with &lt;br /&gt;improper intention and therefor it never has the right effect. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You should have gone to that open-mic and if I were there we &lt;br /&gt;would have. Its one of my goals too. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I hope that you and Kewscha have a good time with that plan, &lt;br /&gt;but a family is a woman and a man and you have found that &lt;br /&gt;person who would go through hell to create heaven but I have &lt;br /&gt;not received enough signs indicating that you too would endure &lt;br /&gt;that pain in order to attain that pleasure. Maybe you haven't &lt;br /&gt;received the same signs yourself. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Society is not real; it is a false contrivance. It is addictive, &lt;br /&gt;continually seeking success just for the satisfaction, needing &lt;br /&gt;things out of want, and needing until you can't get any more. &lt;br /&gt;You will need all of your life, but they will tell you what &lt;br /&gt;you need, and will hook you to the ideas that they plant in &lt;br /&gt;your mind. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you don't have time to create for your self then the time &lt;br /&gt;is slipping away. I will stop creating until I burst, who knows &lt;br /&gt;how long it will be. Maybe I thought I needed you to create; &lt;br /&gt;maybe I wanted someone to comfort and to comfort me. To teach &lt;br /&gt;and to learn from. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Your point that I showed up with no forewarning was taken; I &lt;br /&gt;feel as if you cannot say "NO" and simply tell me that I have &lt;br /&gt;hurt your feelings or am thinking only of my self or not of &lt;br /&gt;who you really are. I bet a lot of people try and hit on you &lt;br /&gt;and you seem to have placed me in a slot with them; to be &lt;br /&gt;glanced over and nothing more. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I don't know whats real. I have concrete plans to figure this &lt;br /&gt;out, and not settle for anything less. I thought that you &lt;br /&gt;were a really beautiful person, someone who wouldn't hold &lt;br /&gt;back their thoughts whether good or bad. Yes, I have something &lt;br /&gt;to express to you that bad, and all of these words merely point &lt;br /&gt;at them. I have something to express to someone that would listen &lt;br /&gt;open-heartedly so bad. But its been so long that I wonder if its &lt;br /&gt;even worth trying anymore. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When we first began speaking I thought that you were very beautiful. &lt;br /&gt;I don't know what changed. You seemed to be asking for a close friend &lt;br /&gt;to share with and then you have two jobs and classes and everyone is &lt;br /&gt;begging for your time. Well, I travelled the whole way, maybe you &lt;br /&gt;should have just met me somewhere in the middle of the country and &lt;br /&gt;it would have been even. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Creativity is beautiful but it must be respected. It can provide for &lt;br /&gt;any type of lifestyle depending on what lengths you are willing to go &lt;br /&gt;for; it has a price. When I first heard your voice, on your voicemail, &lt;br /&gt;I could tell that you were "pushed". Not calm in your mind. Your words &lt;br /&gt;come out too fast. There is no, deliberation, it is not concise, and &lt;br /&gt;your mind seems to be not concentrated on your speech. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When you connect your heart, your mind, and your speech, magic happens. &lt;br /&gt;I guess that the death that I imagined was brought on by the fact that &lt;br /&gt;I have to leave here very soon. It is not a good place here, I am &lt;br /&gt;pondering visiting a friend in Millerton, NY, but I mostly want to &lt;br /&gt;be alone. This dysfunction in communication is driving me up the walls, &lt;br /&gt;not being able to say what I think and thinking I can't say what I mean. &lt;br /&gt;And listen. Its hard to listen when you're always thinking. No, you're &lt;br /&gt;not meant to live inside of your head, no matter what you think and no &lt;br /&gt;matter what others tell you, you are meant to have a clear mind, for it &lt;br /&gt;is infinitally more creative, and there are ways to do that. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Innundation of words from a person who can read half of a page in a minute? &lt;br /&gt;I can type a paragraph in a minute, so it sounded lovely. I am off now, &lt;br /&gt;sorry for thinking that because we knew each other in the past that you &lt;br /&gt;would think that I was something. I thought you were something. I could &lt;br /&gt;never tell you what I saw in you because our conversation always seemed &lt;br /&gt;strained, and if you knew me it was only a half knowing because you wouldnt &lt;br /&gt;or couldn't relate that to me. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Any way. I want to wish you a good day. And a great life. And much success, &lt;br /&gt;though for what its worth only we will see on our death beds when we are too &lt;br /&gt;tired to carry on. If you actually feel the need to respond simply call me, &lt;br /&gt;I'm over the subtle mind games myspace has embedded in its advertising. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My mom, my lover, my friend, my sister, the song goes, I wonder why &lt;br /&gt;you were pushed to the point that you thought you couldn't take no more, &lt;br /&gt;last night was aweful, I'm just a simple man, and with no where to focus &lt;br /&gt;this love it feels as if its just too much. Maybe tommorow I'll feel &lt;br /&gt;different, and I don't like making decisions under the influence of &lt;br /&gt;anxiety and anger, but maybe you'll see that and we can talk in the future. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Signing off, &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Some guy.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

shamans cave web forum.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hallo all, thank you for this resource, this is my first post, and something that I am greatly intrigued by - especially akarose's question regarding bipolar affliction.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Firstly I have been having incredible experiences mainly over the past 9 years,&lt;br /&gt;induced by cannabis, hallucinogens, sleep deprivation, and fasting.&lt;br /&gt;(Fasting is known to cause this but I am perusing a google search of anyone&lt;br /&gt;having experiences with sleep deprivation). I am diagnosed bipolar, but&lt;br /&gt;I am not very close to my doctor and would not let him diagnose me further,&lt;br /&gt;especially because I have thought myself to be schizophrenic since I began&lt;br /&gt;to have these experiences.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have an extreme aversion to being sober, and cannabis has seemed to get me&lt;br /&gt;through very many tough times. That being said, I have been&lt;br /&gt;sober for periods lasting up to a year, but for some reason (often including the&lt;br /&gt;people I am drawn to - homeless people and trippers) I always tend to go&lt;br /&gt;back to the habit. I do see myself as having to be medicated, and choose to use&lt;br /&gt;plants instead of the concocted help - I don't believe their intentions were&lt;br /&gt;proper when they were created and therefor their effects could be worse than&lt;br /&gt;going to jail or overdosing on bad lsd.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyhow having had extreme experiences of the beyond both under and over the&lt;br /&gt;influence, I don't see myself as often "choosing" these things beforehand.&lt;br /&gt;At any moment, if I am able to strand myself far from civilization (my will has&lt;br /&gt;hardly ever played in choosing to sober up or fast/deprive myself), I can&lt;br /&gt;experience clarity and increase in perception and dreaming. I do not dream&lt;br /&gt;when I smoke, but I do know of some people who do, and are often lucid with&lt;br /&gt;recall.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I think that some people are called to use these tools and for others they are&lt;br /&gt;harmful. It is my own chemistry and guides that have decided this for me, and&lt;br /&gt;there is often no way for me to reproduce any one experience (involving&lt;br /&gt;intoxication) or to even prepare for it - I see my self as being led in this direction&lt;br /&gt;and these tools, too, showed me that reality resided more in my perceptions, than&lt;br /&gt;in the world that everyone was forced to claim as sharing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have had trips that have permanently altered me - the first involved&lt;br /&gt;amphetamines, and I got the urge to write, and began writing my first poetry on&lt;br /&gt;a cellular phone (without a keyboard). I have been writing ever since. Often what&lt;br /&gt;I write seems to be beyond my normal capabilities, but I am hoping&lt;br /&gt;that a soul retrieval will reveal to me that these were all along my abilities, or&lt;br /&gt;perhaps I am being aided. Also with fasting this has happened, once for&lt;br /&gt;two weeks, and once for a week, and after, several months of heightened senses,&lt;br /&gt;and highly increased (well, from nothing) creativity.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is my own mind that wishes to perform all of these duties without inebriation, but&lt;br /&gt;as I said it doesn't always seem to be my choice; my reaction to the&lt;br /&gt;availability of acid has been sort of knee-jerk, though is slowing down. The entire&lt;br /&gt;universe talks to me, and shows me incredible mind-eye visions, and I&lt;br /&gt;rethink my life often. Psilocybin however often gives me a death-trip, usually not&lt;br /&gt;pleasurable but sometimes needed to jar me from repetive behaivor that&lt;br /&gt;I cannot see.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When I began smoking cannabis at 18 I felt that I was different from others and&lt;br /&gt;this was soon proved as I was shown my first vision of causation in the world,&lt;br /&gt;after which I passed out and slept for nearly 20 hours. I have always had different&lt;br /&gt;experiences than those around me, until I went to a rainbow gathering -&lt;br /&gt;most people seemed to enjoy taking heavier drugs for the experience, and to sit&lt;br /&gt;back and watch it, while I would often become highly spiritual and interpret&lt;br /&gt;the same things that were happening to us in vastly alternate ways. It was through&lt;br /&gt;these experiences that I was led to believe that I shall work with energy&lt;br /&gt;and help and heal others, with myself being healed as I do this work. At this time I&lt;br /&gt;began to seek all information on drugs, trip reports, religion, psychology,&lt;br /&gt;and dreams, and am still furthering my knowledge on these things.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm not the type that likes many forms of entertainment - in almost everything I do&lt;br /&gt;I learn something about my self and the world, and this is also true of&lt;br /&gt;(nearly) every chemical that I have ingested. Sometimes I enter a state of mind&lt;br /&gt;with an intent, but often I meditate on myself for a few moments and&lt;br /&gt;dose. Depending on the winds and moon position, and some other things that I'm&lt;br /&gt;sure effect the outcome, what I experience is permanently memorable.&lt;br /&gt;I have so much to write about that I will cherish the day (the computer seemed to&lt;br /&gt;"burp" when I tried to type that though...) when I can sit and mindlessly&lt;br /&gt;write hundreds of pages of experiences and interpretations, both waking and&lt;br /&gt;unwaking. This has happened more and more often, I can&lt;br /&gt;pray to the blank page and cry words all over it, of things that I have been wanting&lt;br /&gt;to say since I was a child.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have had what seemed like bad and or pointless trips, but this is not the norm. In&lt;br /&gt;my view modern psychology is a childish form of help, and I see&lt;br /&gt;the roots of mood disorder in many people, but for me its apparent after maybe a&lt;br /&gt;few days. I have very little conscious focus, so I guess I'm&lt;br /&gt;finished writing. As an aside, I am sober, and usually can't stand the two weeks it&lt;br /&gt;takes for me to remove the copious amounts of cannabis I ingest.&lt;br /&gt;I plan on trying to continue this, and after these weeks a point is usually reached&lt;br /&gt;where I am more balanced, but really I've never done it while conscious.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yesterday while napping I noticed my audio input disappear, which signals that I&lt;br /&gt;am falling asleep. I began to see an image as clear as if my eyes&lt;br /&gt;were open, but it was fleeting - I often notice the colors in my eyelids turn into&lt;br /&gt;dreams, and sometimes I am able to maintain some form of&lt;br /&gt;consciousness while this happens. I hope to be able to maintain sobriety so that I&lt;br /&gt;may work with these experiences more often.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;[takes breath] I was just about to write a blog but I think I'll post this instead. :X&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/14949812-3921480796938225357?l=terbospeed.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://terbospeed.blogspot.com/feeds/3921480796938225357/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=14949812&amp;postID=3921480796938225357' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14949812/posts/default/3921480796938225357'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14949812/posts/default/3921480796938225357'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://terbospeed.blogspot.com/2007/07/getting-higher-re-spirit-alliesdrug-use.html' title='Getting Higher - Re: spirit allies/drug use'/><author><name>Chad B.</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15925579548859087882</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_M1MeDQB7p7o/ShohXQi3m4I/AAAAAAAAAEs/M9PTx_R3GKs/S220/stepping-off-the-spaceship2.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14949812.post-4034185437457108880</id><published>2007-07-05T02:23:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-07-18T02:24:02.455-07:00</updated><title type='text'>thought worship</title><content type='html'>this began as a container for emotion, and ended up pointing to today -&lt;br /&gt;yes, worship of thought is a deadly affliction, however it is the main&lt;br /&gt;problem in the world today, dictated by the buddha millenium ago ...&lt;br /&gt;along with his solution to how to displace this worship.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;the last 12 years of my life are gone&lt;br /&gt;i don't like to write sad songs&lt;br /&gt;so i'll just sit here and laugh and cry&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i wonder if i'll grow up to be the hairy ugly guy sitting on the park bench&lt;br /&gt;asking for a quarter ... i would laugh at that one but im scared of where&lt;br /&gt;im going, and no one is concerned.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;everytime i see a homeless person, or someone talking to themselves, dirty&lt;br /&gt;beyond repair, i wonder if they have family, what they were like as children,&lt;br /&gt;what their goals were, what they did with their time .. i wonder if they have&lt;br /&gt;goals now, if they have things that they won't say to others because those that&lt;br /&gt;they have talked with before have dismissed what they felt .. not what they said,&lt;br /&gt;what they FELT. I wonder why there must be so many people wandering around on&lt;br /&gt;the streets, sleeping anywhere, with all of their belongings in their backpacks ..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i saw love as an answer, finding someone compassionate enough and able to see&lt;br /&gt;the story that i would weave .. not interrupt it at every point, like everyone&lt;br /&gt;else does. i'm stranded, and this beautiful life may go to waste. i've been here&lt;br /&gt;before - my friend jake is stranded, and i think constantly of trying to save him,&lt;br /&gt;because i know no one else will save him.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;that last few weeks that i have been breathing have been troublesome. i asked a&lt;br /&gt;soul for help and it didn't respond. i'm just a soul. but we're all different &lt;br /&gt;apparently. i wonder what our life is worth if the earth shall be destroyed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i imagine my self as coming from somewhere else, coming here to spread healing&lt;br /&gt;and help, and change the injustices, through subtle measures, and see myself as&lt;br /&gt;being able to go back and try again after this life ... i am still afraid of what&lt;br /&gt;happens when I die though, I've been addressing it a lot, even though I didn't want&lt;br /&gt;to.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;new york was cool. I am glad that I made it out of there. It must be aweful to live&lt;br /&gt;there, and they don't even know it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i tried to be sober for a woman. what a mistake. i just wanted to have a peaceful&lt;br /&gt;night. a peaceful life. i have too many constructive ideas to be this stagnant.&lt;br /&gt;but no one believes me, at all. it had happened for her before, i could tell in&lt;br /&gt;her voice, those things that she wouldn't say but would send through her talk.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i dont remember if i told her that i had a problem, i thought it was apparent,&lt;br /&gt;i can see it in many people, but they deny it; i have many solutions but for&lt;br /&gt;some reason am quite unable to enact them on my own. so i asked for a companion.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;to this the universe said i should have one; that i shouldnt be so alone; with&lt;br /&gt;all of these thoughts stealing my energy and all of these drugs hurting my attention&lt;br /&gt;span. though these are all I have; they have given me life up until now and I have&lt;br /&gt;known that they were wrong but whenever I turn from them I am faced &lt;br /&gt;hell;&lt;br /&gt;absolute hell; I can't even tell who I am, or why I wrote what I wrote, and all&lt;br /&gt;I ask for is someone to view this for what it is; I know I have a lot of problems&lt;br /&gt;but I have written the solutions for years and hope to be able to put them into&lt;br /&gt;action before it becomes too cloudy to see the sun&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;more words to the wind. i woke up with words to her on my mind. more wine; i woke&lt;br /&gt;up hours later with thoughts of her. now i'm drunk, after a day of drinking rum, beer,&lt;br /&gt;and wine, and finally the thoughts want a place to sit. i saw where thoughts came from;&lt;br /&gt;i know the mind so well that its absurd that i should think i am experiencing such pain&lt;br /&gt;and feel it so strongly. i have so much anxiety that its hard to make decisions; either&lt;br /&gt;i sit still or do stupid things just to change SOMETHING that won't change because it is&lt;br /&gt;dwelling inside of me ...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;the worship of thought is often confused with being selfish, being selfless.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;or whatever. i feel sane in an insane world. i feel insane and the world doesn't notice.&lt;br /&gt;i want to worship something other than myself. someone other than myself. maybe i should&lt;br /&gt;just worship the next beautiful woman i see.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/14949812-4034185437457108880?l=terbospeed.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://terbospeed.blogspot.com/feeds/4034185437457108880/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=14949812&amp;postID=4034185437457108880' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14949812/posts/default/4034185437457108880'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14949812/posts/default/4034185437457108880'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://terbospeed.blogspot.com/2007/07/thought-worship.html' title='thought worship'/><author><name>Chad B.</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15925579548859087882</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_M1MeDQB7p7o/ShohXQi3m4I/AAAAAAAAAEs/M9PTx_R3GKs/S220/stepping-off-the-spaceship2.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14949812.post-1421711374944201343</id><published>2007-07-03T07:00:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-09-18T07:18:54.544-07:00</updated><title type='text'>kundalini vs schizophrenia - a higher perspective</title><content type='html'>&lt;i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;*/o for those who believe in their delusions&lt;br /&gt;      instead of the constitution */o&lt;br /&gt;*/o  for those who are trapped in instutions&lt;br /&gt;       waiting for retribution */o&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is gonna be posted some other places.

Indeed,&lt;br /&gt;how it should be.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;300 year old psychology. highly intellectually,&lt;br /&gt;socially and externally developed. doctor&lt;br /&gt;observes someone else who is sick. decides on&lt;br /&gt;a treatment. generalises from that what is normal.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;it has lots to discover, but cant discover very many&lt;br /&gt;things about itself.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;myths and spiritual awakening&lt;br /&gt;descriptions and instructions,&lt;br /&gt;known by the highest minds who&lt;br /&gt;sought to notice their "self" and did&lt;br /&gt;so in absence of a high degree of&lt;br /&gt;outside sensation&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;and found it to be always changing&lt;br /&gt;and described the usual experiental&lt;br /&gt;world and life that we lived as the&lt;br /&gt;illusion of maya&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;we descended from higher parts of&lt;br /&gt;our minds with less outward&lt;br /&gt;stimulation swaying our senses,&lt;br /&gt;meaning our mind was not always&lt;br /&gt;changing, over time, over day to&lt;br /&gt;day life, over good or bad&lt;br /&gt;experiences.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;over life and death. the eternal self.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;and there is a chance that you go&lt;br /&gt;insane or the chance that you&lt;br /&gt;become more experienced and&lt;br /&gt;stable in the whole action of life,&lt;br /&gt;when this energy is awoken, or&lt;br /&gt;this world is seen for what it&lt;br /&gt;truly is&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I think I agreed to these terms&lt;br /&gt;but they are hard to always accept&lt;br /&gt;and subsequently remember. but its&lt;br /&gt;either to die this way without a soul&lt;br /&gt;having known my ideas (some authors&lt;br /&gt;are never appreciated by their peers,&lt;br /&gt;only some era later to be discovered to&lt;br /&gt;have been appluadable), and not having&lt;br /&gt;created any equal relationships or making&lt;br /&gt;anything of my self in society or finding&lt;br /&gt;out just where the bottom of the rabbit&lt;br /&gt;hole is, proverbally, OR, finding everlasting&lt;br /&gt; peace and creative power and knowledge of&lt;br /&gt;self and awareness of the real world and&lt;br /&gt;the ability to speak the language of nature&lt;br /&gt;and not be pushed and pulled around by&lt;br /&gt;this false world society has created in the&lt;br /&gt;attempts of making everyones lives "better"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have some things to develop&lt;br /&gt;I must do them alone for some&lt;br /&gt;time, because few can understand,&lt;br /&gt;nor relate to or begin to&lt;br /&gt;imagine the life of someone with&lt;br /&gt;experiences of the possibly&lt;br /&gt;premature awakening of the&lt;br /&gt;spiritual energy described as&lt;br /&gt;buddhist kundalini&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i have found very few descriptions of&lt;br /&gt;this idea. of spiritual awakening discussed&lt;br /&gt;within the buddhist framework. even fewer&lt;br /&gt;people who have experienced it *and* were&lt;br /&gt;able to articulate it. and i've met one and maybe&lt;br /&gt;a handful of people who have done the work and&lt;br /&gt;simply shine and help and create and dance.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(the universe told me what to do,&lt;br /&gt;sing, pray, dance, and meditate - then rest)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i find if i begin to believe that im&lt;br /&gt;crazy and not provided for by the&lt;br /&gt;intelligent living world around me and&lt;br /&gt;above me, and my guides and spirits&lt;br /&gt;that help me that i must help, i begin&lt;br /&gt;to feel sicker and my life goals begin&lt;br /&gt;to be limited and my opportunities&lt;br /&gt;removed and my body and mind just&lt;br /&gt;hurt&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;but if i believe that i have the ability to&lt;br /&gt;one day find out true happiness for more&lt;br /&gt;than a moment or more than a few months&lt;br /&gt;yes for years and years, i feel like my life&lt;br /&gt;has a deep purpose, to find out the origins&lt;br /&gt;of this dream world i live in&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i've had the opportunity to never&lt;br /&gt;connect on a deep level with&lt;br /&gt;anyone over my life that i can&lt;br /&gt;agree on right now, that could&lt;br /&gt;understand what changed over&lt;br /&gt;my life and could help me, and&lt;br /&gt;i've also had the pleasure of&lt;br /&gt;keeping my imagination and&lt;br /&gt;ability to sit around and dream&lt;br /&gt;and play like a child.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;ive also had the privelage of not taking&lt;br /&gt;in too much regular culturization&lt;br /&gt;and programming that inhibits&lt;br /&gt;this true childishness&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i also know something is wrong&lt;br /&gt;and have litle faith in modern&lt;br /&gt;psychology and psychiatry&lt;br /&gt;approaches to this 'problem'&lt;br /&gt;and 'disease' so what am i to&lt;br /&gt;do?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i shall remain absolutely still.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(like as in fear?

Certainly the motive for my training was purely selfish, until I attended an informational meeting sponsored by the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society Team in Training.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The LLS is the largest non-profit voluntary organization dedicated to raising funds for blood-related cancer cures, research, and provides programs and services that enhance and increase the number of cancer survivors.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So moved by what I had learned, I decided to take on the challenge to train for the Nike 1/2 marathon walk (13.1 miles) on October 21st, 2007 in San Francisco.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On this day I will walk in memory of my God-Daughter Rene Terry who passed in 1985 from Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma, a young woman who, in the prime of her life, had recently graduated from Cornell University.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;She never had the opportunity to experience the fruits of her education, but left behind her son Chad for all of us to cherish.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My nephew Andre Lavell, a young father of four, who was diagnosed two years ago with Chronic Mylegenous Leukemia, also inspires me. His healthy spirit and his desire to focus on following the medical regime as prescribed by his physician awes me, as does his strength to maintain that wonderful relationship he has with his wife and 4 young children.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So for him I am walking in honor of his current battle and with his attitude and determination I have faith he will be a survivor and winner in every sense of the word.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These two young people have made me realize how my complaints are trivial in comparison to what they have had to deal with; Rene’s fierce battle to survive and Andre’s everyday endurance.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So the aches and pains, and these pulls in the muscles that I feel in this new- found activity of walking, is something I can certainly take on, and I will push my self to be a winner.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I need a further push from all of you. My goal is to raise $4000 for this cause. Seventy-five cents of each dollar goes directly to the LLS, and each donation is 100-percent tax deductible. Research funding has helped to develop treatments that have increased the survival rate of children suffering from Leukemia from %4 in 1960 to over %85 today.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Please give as generously as you can. I am honored by any help that we receive.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Much love and thanks in advance,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Elsie Mitchell / Chad Terry&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/14949812-28846328370044849?l=terbospeed.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://terbospeed.blogspot.com/feeds/28846328370044849/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=14949812&amp;postID=28846328370044849' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14949812/posts/default/28846328370044849'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14949812/posts/default/28846328370044849'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://terbospeed.blogspot.com/2007/06/draft-3-dear-i-thought-that-i-would.html' title='LLS Team in Training Fund Raising Letter'/><author><name>Chad B.</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15925579548859087882</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_M1MeDQB7p7o/ShohXQi3m4I/AAAAAAAAAEs/M9PTx_R3GKs/S220/stepping-off-the-spaceship2.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14949812.post-6443180798859416257</id><published>2007-06-20T02:25:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-07-18T02:26:32.218-07:00</updated><title type='text'>caught .. changing ..</title><content type='html'>and when you thought you were vulnerable those eyes penetrated&lt;br /&gt;but the eyes would not talk when they had no teeth or tongue&lt;br /&gt;and who did they see? was it you or me?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;vida's last post was beautiful, and seems to be&lt;br /&gt;carrying the same energy that is on my own back ..&lt;br /&gt;the daily horoscopes from anette seem to be&lt;br /&gt;eerily pointing out something to me and the&lt;br /&gt;other person ...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;it feels like I've been here before though I&lt;br /&gt;know I haven't; or I've forgotten.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I won't let this end in pain though if it&lt;br /&gt;is always as uncomfortable as it is&lt;br /&gt;now then I will have to change my&lt;br /&gt;dreams to include only me and&lt;br /&gt;then try and figure out where&lt;br /&gt;this silly fantasy came from.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I almost want to hate signs&lt;br /&gt;that lead nowhere. Months&lt;br /&gt;of dreams to go a place and&lt;br /&gt;wait. While my own mind goes&lt;br /&gt;everywhere except for to you,&lt;br /&gt;it seems to be my own problem.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Can't be mad at that. My own mind&lt;br /&gt;making its own problems. Wanting&lt;br /&gt;to share those problems along with&lt;br /&gt;its gifts. Hoping that somehow I would&lt;br /&gt;get out of this pit I dug. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So sorry I drug you down here with me.&lt;br /&gt;My own dreams are as simple as being&lt;br /&gt;able to be myself and be creative. I've&lt;br /&gt;had these dreams on my own that included&lt;br /&gt;faces hidden in shadows and names illegable,&lt;br /&gt;for so long that I wonder if they just all starred&lt;br /&gt;different aspects of myself.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;hr&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One thing that is comforting that I know&lt;br /&gt;is that I don't even need to connect with&lt;br /&gt;someone to benefit from them. All the&lt;br /&gt;writing that I've done is enough and though&lt;br /&gt;my own mind wants an actual closure of&lt;br /&gt;the energy it may just fade with the sunset.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;hr&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So the casual interactions we've shared have&lt;br /&gt;had anything but casual reactions in me. Oh brother.&lt;br /&gt;Emotion is not my mode of transportation. Crash.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Its caused me to displace my self because where I&lt;br /&gt;was had a foundation of sand. No one knows the&lt;br /&gt;extent of this greater than me and I couldnt even&lt;br /&gt;formulate words to make you feel this experience.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I've been over words for so long now in relation to&lt;br /&gt;you. I guess conscious minds have a harder time&lt;br /&gt;synchronizing than unconscious minds. Thats why&lt;br /&gt;all I want to do is make art.

I will try and continue writing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I feel better about your energy now. I must look back at our exchanges&lt;br /&gt;to see what happened because it doesn't usually seem to work either way.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Maybe we knew something back then. That no one else knew as clearly&lt;br /&gt;as we did.  Romance is one thing but destiny is greater.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;God has truly blessed me to feel such power from you but not wish&lt;br /&gt;to be attached.  A friend; a wonderful way to view such proceedings.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thinking about the women I've been with I remember not consciously feeling&lt;br /&gt;and deciding on what I wanted between us or what I felt for her until it&lt;br /&gt;resulted in sexual distress.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Love at first sight isn't the same when its a guy and you're straight.&lt;br /&gt;Me and Terry and Jake and Andrei and to an extent Kyle all shared that&lt;br /&gt;the first time we enteracted. We have similar rhythms. Similar minds.&lt;br /&gt;Different social conditions. Intertwined fates. A family outside of blood.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have been planning on making this change for several years now.&lt;br /&gt;I believe I will be happer and more successful, keeping in mind a few variables.&lt;br /&gt;The support just isn't around. (Nor was it the time)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Words elone are more than enough.&lt;br /&gt;We'll always make art and if we could share that it would be super.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Why, pray tell, can they read your words but not feel your voice?&lt;br /&gt;So much more of the powem is available to them in this way.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I wonder if this influence is genuine; I pray that it is used&lt;br /&gt;in a positive and constructive manner. When becoming my self&lt;br /&gt;I have to fight my ego so strongly. Arrogance, I guess I am that,&lt;br /&gt;but for so long I have not liked it that I thought it was someone else.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You would have to live one perfect day, and share it,&lt;br /&gt;or record it, to know later that it was enlightenment.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To live life without you would mean to search for, in every single persons eyes,&lt;br /&gt;what I could not see in my self, alone. When they were not able to reflect my radiance,&lt;br /&gt;I would feel empty and a failure. I have looked for this beauty, first in the form of&lt;br /&gt;my missing father (is that him? on the subway) then for what I suppose is to be my&lt;br /&gt;mother. Though I am not so silly to be doing that in the waking, I still look for&lt;br /&gt;validation and acceptance in each and every womans eyes, unreturned.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Only through communication and heart have I survived.&lt;br /&gt;All else has been shipped off to the reck already,&lt;br /&gt;and there are few that would care to retrieve it.&lt;br /&gt;I cry for our life alone, too many years, and wait for the day&lt;br /&gt;when I can go into a dream and wonder what would have happened&lt;br /&gt;if I had stayed near you after our school experience.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A whole lot of writing just got erased. It happens to damn much.&lt;br /&gt;Maybe I'm not writing enough. Maybe I'm just not writing the right things.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm tired of re-writing. It was just a few paragraphs.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ok, I'm feeling very artistic, but tired, and heavy, because of the heavier food/&lt;br /&gt;life I began living, and a bit annoyed, maybe because my car has been getting&lt;br /&gt;'detailed' for the past 5 hours. Also really odd sexual urges, out of absolutely&lt;br /&gt;nowhere. All of the women around are exceptionally beautiful.&lt;br /&gt;The kids are so wonderful, the little girls so special.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This friend of mine, our friendship, it will be hard, so very few women get to&lt;br /&gt;remain my friends, and I really can say that I hate depravity due to repression.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Each letter comes out different, from the same source, at a different time.&lt;br /&gt;Each was aligned for me, before I thought, after my typo. How can I be judged&lt;br /&gt;for my own words when they are anything but that. I have been working on not&lt;br /&gt;being here, being in a place of no-awareness and feeling the subtle pulls of&lt;br /&gt;consciousness on my soul.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For me to take my self seriously I would have to know who I was taking and where.&lt;br /&gt;I don't trust my self; thats what I'm here for. He is way too unpredictable. I don't&lt;br /&gt;even know a lot of the things that I know. How can you judge me?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When I remember some of the things I've done, or read about it from my own&lt;br /&gt;sources, or am told, it is usually a bit of a surprise. I have to fix that, it is very&lt;br /&gt;displeasing and displacing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;While I plan on cultivating focus I will continue to write these fragments of&lt;br /&gt;mine. If you wan't a book you have one, just be prepared to help further the cause.&lt;br /&gt;Its easy, flows like water.&lt;br /&gt;Tastes like candy.&lt;br /&gt;All mind.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/14949812-4328107667751373418?l=terbospeed.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://terbospeed.blogspot.com/feeds/4328107667751373418/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=14949812&amp;postID=4328107667751373418' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14949812/posts/default/4328107667751373418'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14949812/posts/default/4328107667751373418'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://terbospeed.blogspot.com/2007/06/may-i-have-another-story-please.html' title='May I have another story please ...'/><author><name>Chad B.</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15925579548859087882</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_M1MeDQB7p7o/ShohXQi3m4I/AAAAAAAAAEs/M9PTx_R3GKs/S220/stepping-off-the-spaceship2.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14949812.post-3688076448400549413</id><published>2007-06-17T02:20:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-07-18T02:21:39.396-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Free water/food/air/housing/medicine/internet</title><content type='html'>Let us forget a few things from this list, and then forget that&lt;br /&gt;we've enlisted our selves to assist, the perpetrators of this&lt;br /&gt;grand removal of the right to live.

And they seem so real ..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When I think of what is real confusion sets in.&lt;br /&gt;Real seems to change. But lets try and get&lt;br /&gt;a picture of it changing ... maybe that will&lt;br /&gt;be it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Next destination, Islands.&lt;br /&gt;Get away from the cement for a while.&lt;br /&gt;Maybe take up a new language, like sign.&lt;br /&gt;Much more interesting than language spoken&lt;br /&gt;with no heart.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Continue organizing the data overflow.&lt;br /&gt;That seems like it may have importance,&lt;br /&gt;I don't even know what I have.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Make it more presentable. The internet is&lt;br /&gt;kind of inspiring though, but I could probably&lt;br /&gt;create without it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Read more of my past writing ... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dream of a womans comfort.&lt;br /&gt;Resolutions to this are old and new;&lt;br /&gt;is the fear valid? Will my heart be&lt;br /&gt;consumed by flocks of vulture women?&lt;br /&gt;Will they see my silly weakness and use&lt;br /&gt;it again and again to exploit me?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Will I actually make up my mind and keep&lt;br /&gt;it that way until we at least think we know&lt;br /&gt;each other?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ok so beyond bars running up to random&lt;br /&gt;misses with compliments .. homeless chicks&lt;br /&gt;are pretty abundant, but usually that way for a&lt;br /&gt;reason. As is me. The next rainbow gathering&lt;br /&gt;is promising.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It's really weird how I can see few goals as beneficial&lt;br /&gt;as forming and maintaining a relationship. I want art&lt;br /&gt;but I don't want to sit in my room performing for my&lt;br /&gt;mirror and wondering what it sounds like, only to&lt;br /&gt;hear a response from people I can't trust.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I think it is pretty interesting. So does my best friend,&lt;br /&gt;though hes psychotic. I allow people to manipulate me&lt;br /&gt;when I show them my art, and most don't seem to know&lt;br /&gt;how they do that. And so many people know me but not&lt;br /&gt;my creations. I know I have to just start pushing it onto&lt;br /&gt;people; who sits at a bus stop and asks someone if they&lt;br /&gt;know a song or story?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Or something. I wonder if I'll sleep. My medicine was&lt;br /&gt;confiscated. I wish not to be considered addicted, and&lt;br /&gt;I can bet that the withdrawal will be pretty violent.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I was supposed to use this space to ask her to talk&lt;br /&gt;about her self. I guess she doesn't; maybe I could&lt;br /&gt;tell her what I see in her; but I don't know if she&lt;br /&gt;wants that too. So overly concerned about how she&lt;br /&gt;feels about me. Sorry that we have to come as tests.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These words are worthless here. Everyone just reads&lt;br /&gt;and reads and has nothing to write. These words are&lt;br /&gt;to her, when her mailbox was full and her reply button&lt;br /&gt;broken.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This energy is for her, was molded by her, but I don't&lt;br /&gt;know how to return it. I have ceased holding back&lt;br /&gt;my words, I have lost so much of my life; if it werent&lt;br /&gt;on a computer I would be carrying around a bunch of&lt;br /&gt;paper trying to keep it from the elements. So I've&lt;br /&gt;began to publish as much as I can, to share more,&lt;br /&gt;with my family, with my friends - but it seems my&lt;br /&gt;need to express has gone unnoticed by these people.&lt;br /&gt;Maybe next year they will read it. Who knows where&lt;br /&gt;I will be.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So yea I can't get this feeling out of me.&lt;br /&gt;No matter how much I write.&lt;br /&gt;I'm tired of smoking.&lt;br /&gt;I really liked what I wrote last week but&lt;br /&gt;I haven't gotten any input so I can't tell if&lt;br /&gt;I'm just enjoying a grande delusion or not.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'll just lay here and use every molecule&lt;br /&gt;of my body to relax.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;silly boy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I miss your poetry, silly girl.&lt;br /&gt;What you only gave to me.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/14949812-8904486592603775098?l=terbospeed.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://terbospeed.blogspot.com/feeds/8904486592603775098/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=14949812&amp;postID=8904486592603775098' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14949812/posts/default/8904486592603775098'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14949812/posts/default/8904486592603775098'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://terbospeed.blogspot.com/2007/06/words-to-wake-up-to.html' title='words to wake up to'/><author><name>Chad B.</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15925579548859087882</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_M1MeDQB7p7o/ShohXQi3m4I/AAAAAAAAAEs/M9PTx_R3GKs/S220/stepping-off-the-spaceship2.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14949812.post-3332142581007655936</id><published>2007-06-17T02:15:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-07-18T02:37:14.032-07:00</updated><title type='text'>words to fall asleep to</title><content type='html'>At a loss for ways to describe the current happenings,&lt;br /&gt;I remove my hand from the keyboard and rub my eyes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The words were like tears, existing only in thought.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They were erased before my eyes, maybe telling&lt;br /&gt;me to stop.

Chances.&lt;br /&gt;I can't determine if they are risks that I&lt;br /&gt;would normally have taken or if I am just&lt;br /&gt;becoming more careless.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So we have exchanged letters for over 2 months now.&lt;br /&gt;We seem to have related a lot. I have placed my self&lt;br /&gt;near this person I consider special; we are close to&lt;br /&gt;meeting face to face for the first time in over a decade.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ho hum, I wish I could control my thoughts, because most of&lt;br /&gt;all I'm pretty certain that I've caused all of the things&lt;br /&gt;that have been happening. I keep having bad dreams though.&lt;br /&gt;I don't have enough good dreams. Maybe as I lay here sleepless&lt;br /&gt;tonight in another new place I will try and have happy dreams.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I just wanted to be with you, and I wanted you to be there too,&lt;br /&gt;and I wanted to leave you with more words than I came to you with.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I wanted everyone to hear those words, I wanted those words to&lt;br /&gt;heal us, and support us, and entertain us. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Souls that were comparable,&lt;br /&gt;Lives that were just lives,&lt;br /&gt;Cycles that may be longer than those.&lt;br /&gt;Waiting to connect.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I've learned that I talk too much.&lt;br /&gt;I don't like secrets, or hiding things,&lt;br /&gt;because they are always found out.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm tired of not getting the things in my head,&lt;br /&gt;and even more weary when I'm told its solely&lt;br /&gt;my own experience and that I should sort it out.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well the snakes head comes out of the basket&lt;br /&gt;waiting for the last machete he will ever see.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have things to do here. Coincidental happenings;&lt;br /&gt;nothing I would have driven for, but combined with&lt;br /&gt;a chance to see her something to travel for.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I wonder how I will survive in NYC. I feel the anger&lt;br /&gt;and anxiety and ignorance so strongly; these things&lt;br /&gt;grow in me as I accept more and more of it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After leaving NYC, which may be before or after&lt;br /&gt;the grade school reunion, I will probably go towards&lt;br /&gt;the Ozarks of Arkansas, where the 2007 national rainbow&lt;br /&gt;gathering will be held. It was nice last year; however in&lt;br /&gt;the current mood all that I remember was seeing hundreds&lt;br /&gt;of beautiful women and a few with similarities but simply&lt;br /&gt;watching.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Gosh women seem to know more about relationships and&lt;br /&gt;women in general than men. Why is it so hard to even talk&lt;br /&gt;about these subjects with them without subjectiveness ..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;All these silly words and I still don't know if I wrote what&lt;br /&gt;I really felt or what I wanted to say. I pray and pray for&lt;br /&gt;an interpretation. Someone to see me that I can see.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And yes, I would risk most of my self, and discard it if necessary,&lt;br /&gt;to become the person I dreamed. My creativity can't be confined,&lt;br /&gt;and my consciousness is confused, beyond that everything is&lt;br /&gt;worthless.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I don't know what its worth. MY mind is too strong.&lt;br /&gt;If it were to stay like this I would perform drastic measures,&lt;br /&gt;but I believe my problems will lighten as I am put in a&lt;br /&gt;position to heal. Healing has been my main study since I&lt;br /&gt;first noticed something really odd about my self, 8 years ago.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And a chance to feel healthy, and create what you&lt;br /&gt;imagine, would be worth the risk.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ok, I'm gonna erase this and make it seem happy&lt;br /&gt;and put lots of exclamation points everywhere. (!!!)&lt;br /&gt;Well, maybe not, it might influence the coming&lt;br /&gt;conundrums.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

discomforting ..&lt;br /&gt;isn't it all for comfort? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;a long period of confusion must mean a long period of ..&lt;br /&gt;certain comfort.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br

type='text'>blogging by gunpoint</title><content type='html'>It seems I will see only certain aspects&lt;br /&gt;of my self through these subconscious inscribings.&lt;br /&gt;Some of it is amazing while some disturbing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is so much to write about and order plays some&lt;br /&gt;part in later determining what happened .. but the&lt;br /&gt;energy to channel it is waining, like the tides.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Vida needs to be interviewed, hopefully one day I&lt;br /&gt;will write that up and get her to answer it :) I&lt;br /&gt;may just go see her, I ran across so many things&lt;br /&gt;driving the 40 .. the entire time I felt pretty&lt;br /&gt;weird though, I didn't want to go into stores and&lt;br /&gt;stuck to drive-throughs.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I picked up two people, and after taking this guy&lt;br /&gt;to a truck stop I saw him the next day walking&lt;br /&gt;up the road and thought it was better to be alone &lt;br /&gt;for a while.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;No. Energy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It seems this place drains my energy. I still think&lt;br /&gt;certain places allow me to write more than others.&lt;br /&gt;I remember leaving the motel in ventura, where I had&lt;br /&gt;been writing every day, and moving into josephs, and&lt;br /&gt;looking at my blog and seeing several entries over a&lt;br /&gt;couple of months ..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The movie "a lot like love" comes on her TV and I'm&lt;br /&gt;compelled to watch it, between cops. Too much weird&lt;br /&gt;stuff, and she has it on all day, like an open sign.&lt;br /&gt;Where they lead the mind and senses is odd; they put&lt;br /&gt;forth a statement, which any rational person could&lt;br /&gt;disect into many arguments, the least likely being&lt;br /&gt;the one the announcer follows, for several statements.&lt;br /&gt;The end statement involves your need for what they have.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Maybe its just commercials and most non movie channels.&lt;br /&gt;I like it when my radio just goes "Whats up, this is God!"&lt;br /&gt;[fill]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;[fill]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;[fill]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;empty bowl waiting for recipes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;forgetting my own true origin.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;but who followed the masters?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I feel like a little kid but I know&lt;br /&gt;a lot more of them are probaly more sucecssful&lt;br /&gt;than I am at these endevours.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;but who knows what i know. some record&lt;br /&gt;somewhere unaccessable to me, viewable only by&lt;br /&gt;those certain individuals ...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"i'm sorry but don't ask me to make a difficult

...&lt;br /&gt;whats going on?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;are these mirrors in front of my eyes upside down and&lt;br /&gt;backwards, or are you all just fractured?&lt;br /&gt;the snakes tongue has not

/&gt;so i had to kill a couple of butterflys&lt;br /&gt;on my way to slay the beast&lt;br /&gt;they died for a noble cause&lt;br /&gt;let us all pause.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;on my way to slay the beast my vessle pumped, pushed,&lt;br /&gt;writhed and beat as the fuel pain bled sound vibrating&lt;br /&gt;speed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;cruise control and 65 across the globe. was the dragon&lt;br /&gt;at the end?&lt;br /&gt;no one knows.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;or knew at the time, thats why I wrote this, moving at&lt;br /&gt;the speed of thought, finger always on the button,&lt;br /&gt;biscuits always in the oven, through all low battering&lt;br /&gt;warnings.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i wrote this so that i could know, the source of my own&lt;br /&gt;pain, hidden within me. and no, i wasn't hungry, i wasn't&lt;br /&gt;tired, i wasn't inspired, nor wired, just traveling the&lt;br /&gt;hypnolayers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;laying road where i went and giving out names i would forget,&lt;br /&gt;no one soul would see the source of this pain. only&lt;br /&gt;everyone would see it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;words like water had sped through their filters, but this&lt;br

Only those who know can tell ..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And those who have told forever embedded their knowledge&lt;br /&gt;of the experience of the higher places into communication&lt;br /&gt;serving as markers. No way was this real ya'll.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What is real? Why argue about right now or then? It is above&lt;br /&gt;our feeble minds yet some will still argue that point. The&lt;br /&gt;pinpoints in the sky that some can see know more of our&lt;br /&gt;selves than we know of them. Their knowing is not transient&lt;br /&gt;like our minds or their positions but eternal like their glow and&lt;br /&gt;force.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;DNA is interesting. At each replication it increases its responses&lt;br /&gt;to the environment. Some species reproduce at much higher rates;&lt;br /&gt;can these species be more spiritually evolved than us? Are ants&lt;br /&gt;really the iceberg tips of infinite beings? Why do I even really care?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What I really care about is the location of my mind.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This mind has an experience naturally like no other, but&lt;br /&gt;true definition will set it apart in further dimensions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Like the spectrum of the rainbow the human mind and its&lt;br /&gt;regulation can be represented by a curve; multi-dimensional&lt;br /&gt;of course but for relation marked by low and high. It can help&lt;br /&gt;to place so-called extremes at the end and beginning of this&lt;br /&gt;curve.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Manic to depressed the world seems open to closed. The pores&lt;br /&gt;feverishly suck in nutrients or they are clogged and overflowing.&lt;br /&gt;The light is almost too bright to see well or absent to the extent&lt;br /&gt;of using hands and smell.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the middle, to an extent, most peoples level lay. Slight variation&lt;br /&gt;over the short term, with natural curving variation over time.&lt;br /&gt;Almost a predictable schedule, though not so because of the&lt;br /&gt;many day to day influences that can cause slow or abrupt changes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mania is hyperactivity, overstimulation, more coffee and speed.&lt;br /&gt;Beyond that, or possibly, with that energy channeled, lay spaces&lt;br /&gt;of consciousness where hgher frequencies are definitally experienced.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hallucinations and delusions, seeds of energy from these other&lt;br /&gt;planes, are experienced as an unseating in this transitory place.&lt;br /&gt;Each thought has some value though without focus deviation can&lt;br /&gt;happen almost mid-sentance. It often does.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anxiety is almost an emotional rumbling, a general feeling of being&lt;br /&gt;uncomfortable wherever you are, in whatever situation you are in.&lt;br /&gt;Certain things seem to stop it, or displace it from view temporarily.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The body and mind are said to be seperate in distinct ways.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have a bad cough and must go enhance it.&lt;br /&gt;Ok that was not too bad. Hash has its good hits.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Addiction is an interesting phenomona also. Another body must&lt;br /&gt;be served through a known action of empty consumption. It drives&lt;br /&gt;and directs my life and I'm not too upset about that. The struggle&lt;br /&gt;of power is interesting to view. The modification is inevitable,&lt;br /&gt;dependancy may be permanent. Or there may be underlying proponents,&lt;br /&gt;whose visibility has eluded us all.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I dont even know what I've written to a large extent.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Memories .. some so strong and vivid and others obviously&lt;br /&gt;burried at varying depths. The tip of the iceberg theme again.&lt;br /&gt;Some that resurface over and over again and others that return&lt;br /&gt;only at the oddest moments. Our memory is quite infallable; if&lt;br /&gt;that is so then who is to know what really happened? How many&lt;br /&gt;people does it take to agree, and further, how many people to&lt;br /&gt;_record_ what is actual fact? With so many accounts and&lt;br /&gt;influences ..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Certainty is a tool used by the devil.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm over it. I trust what a plant tells me. Nothing is truer.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What karma this was. Certainly not developed during this lifetime.&lt;br /&gt;It seems to be accelerating. More and more risks traded for more&lt;br /&gt;and more apparent value. Is it worth it? To drive faster in a&lt;br /&gt;lighter car with bags of air to protect you should anything falter?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Greater rewards for greater power and in turn greater influence&lt;br /&gt;for the better or worse. The worst is not assumed; the best is&lt;br /&gt;saught. At worst lives will be lost and fortunes displaced and&lt;br /&gt;things unreplaceable will be destroyed. Minds will go into loops&lt;br /&gt;and dig holes to hide in, never to show their fuller selves again&lt;br /&gt;until some special tool is utilized.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The more I write and see the same things around me I wonder if&lt;br /&gt;its worth anything. I would not turn it off however. I have worked&lt;br /&gt;all of my life to be so inspired and purposefull and there was&lt;br /&gt;no going back, barrying some really extreme circumstances where&lt;br /&gt;extended control was lost wth no record.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is spiritual channeling and I don't even feel it anymore&lt;br /&gt;though I remember the first day I truly felt it; an unmistakable&lt;br /&gt;feeling. The feeling of being given candy or crack for the first&lt;br /&gt;time, in increasing amounts. Until you were given the motherload ..&lt;br /&gt;I remember writing it; though I still interpret it. I remember&lt;br /&gt;more the absence of remembering the source or inspiration or&lt;br /&gt;actual moment-to-moment transcribing.&lt;br /&gt;Somehow I wrote down the perfect buzz.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;the names and faces have changed but the souls have remained the same&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/14949812-3629801695059022140?l=terbospeed.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://terbospeed.blogspot.com/feeds/3629801695059022140/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=14949812&amp;postID=3629801695059022140' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14949812/posts/default/3629801695059022140'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14949812/posts/default/3629801695059022140'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://terbospeed.blogspot.com/2007/06/these-are-things-that-go-on.html' title='these are the things that go on'/><author><name>Chad B.</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15925579548859087882</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_M1MeDQB7p7o/ShohXQi3m4I/AAAAAAAAAEs/M9PTx_R3GKs/S220/stepping-off-the-spaceship2.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14949812.post-3056231209646988286</id><published>2007-06-07T02:41:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-07-18T02:46:48.998-07:00</updated><title type='text'>i think i should become a plumber</title><content type='html'>this is an interesting day.&lt;br /&gt;i know now, is how i feel.&lt;br /&gt;it flashed through my mind, that it was possible that someone&lt;br /&gt;could say something in an honest tone and mean it and not know&lt;br /&gt;that you were created to answer that one question ...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;and then be able to harness and change/form the resulting energies&lt;br /&gt;that will rise ...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;my dads toilet has been on the fritz and i think i should become a plumber.&lt;br /&gt;gloves, hands on fire, water, come on. good idea.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/14949812-3056231209646988286?l=terbospeed.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://terbospeed.blogspot.com/feeds/3056231209646988286/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=14949812&amp;postID=3056231209646988286' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14949812/posts/default/3056231209646988286'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14949812/posts/default/3056231209646988286'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://terbospeed.blogspot.com/2007/07/i-think-i-should-become-plumber.html' title='i think i should become a plumber'/><author><name>Chad B.</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15925579548859087882</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_M1MeDQB7p7o/ShohXQi3m4I/AAAAAAAAAEs/M9PTx_R3GKs/S220/stepping-off-the-spaceship2.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14949812.post-6549153033090097302</id><published>2007-06-07T02:40:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-07-18T02:48:19.787-07:00</updated><title type='text'>if it got too strong ..</title><content type='html'>Ifi t got too strong then I wasnt writing enough.&lt;br /&gt;It needed release and resolution, relief and response to the idea that&lt;br /&gt;I was made to be alone.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I wanted to know if it was true, if I could have a dream&lt;br /&gt;and live in one at the same time, and not have to be the only one there.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My imagination was steaming with the paths, ways burnt by backwards energies&lt;br /&gt;undone. I needed more.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Whatever the addiction its all the same, we just wanted freedom and being&lt;br /&gt;addicted to each other just wouldnt provide enough space.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Wherever I roamed I burnt down the trees, the bridges were invisible so I&lt;br /&gt;couldn't harm them but my character kept falling in the ditches anyway.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I needed some help, and who knew it. Who knew what combination of replies&lt;br /&gt;and actions would encourage a full release of my hidden self into world view.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I knew that I knew nothing. I knew where it came from, nowhere, and I knew&lt;br /&gt;where it went to, nowhere.

We took it with us and&lt;br /&gt;took turns carrying it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When we reached the mall we placed it in an obvious walk/driveway, and&lt;br /&gt;watched peoples reaction to the obstruction.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We watched people, in a mental pack, notice the cone, go back to their&lt;br /&gt;destraction, and barely avoid the cone. Not once did they become aware of&lt;br /&gt;the area surrounding the cone, perhaps for some hanging piano or escaped&lt;br /&gt;rabid zoo animal.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We moved further into the mall, and exactly one, smiling vibrant young girl&lt;br /&gt;noticed the beacon and became aware of her surroundings.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

a, torn up tongue&lt;br /&gt;she ripped my world apart&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;dancing in the fall of the pieces i got to see her eyes ...&lt;br /&gt;once ... just once ...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;they said ... fuck you ... fuck me .. whatever ...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i said, well, got a name? or two? what could we do?&lt;br /&gt;what can we make?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;that was just the end of one story that was fate&lt;br /&gt;we shared chords in several spectrums and it was all just fake&lt;br /&gt;our minds spread in several directions it was all intake&lt;br /&gt;who saw what and when

type='text'>eat raw meat - eat raw food - eat organic food</title><content type='html'>Two parts, provoked by Vida's blog posting.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;hr&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yay! I eat raw meat! And green juice and know a few raw food preparers!&lt;br /&gt;Yay! But I gotta go! Too much energy! Things to do! Lets discuss later!&lt;br /&gt;Nice chatting with you btw. :P&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mmm a dehydrator was their best friend; a salad bowl mine; for only two&lt;br /&gt;weeks at a time then heavier stuff ... they made sprouted breads and&lt;br /&gt;all types of things .. i havent eaten anything except for liquids and&lt;br /&gt;fruit. Then last night I eat a FEW raisins. Maybe half a handful.&lt;br /&gt;My stomache hurt.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yay! Im gonna go drink some water, at least 2 calories in that ...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;hr&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I don't know. Lol I'm just doing stuff.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I like organic raw hamburger, the highest fat content, either dehydrated,&lt;br /&gt;with onion, avo, namu shoyu raw soy sauce, and any other herbs that you&lt;br /&gt;fancy .. mm. Makes me a bit tired when I eat a lot, but sometimes I can&lt;br /&gt;eat a lot ;P like half pound or more. I like raw milk, love raw cream,&lt;br /&gt;in CA, specially socal/la/santa monica, there is a lot of raw food people&lt;br /&gt;and sources. Organic by all means :) I was initially raw vegan and had&lt;br /&gt;been vegetarian/vegan for a few years several years back, but I kind&lt;br /&gt;of liked eating raw meat. :P&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Even chicken, I think once I had some sort of stomache disturbance, but&lt;br /&gt;it just ended up in more cleansing. The raw food preparists were Ian and&lt;br /&gt;Ivy Love, in Ojai, CA. They are still here spreading their tasty treats. :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Salads were my first raw binge. Bowls the size for several people, sometimes&lt;br /&gt;two. All types of things, every single vegetable I liked at least, cabbage and&lt;br /&gt;cucumber and spinache and garlic and almonds and apples and sprouts and&lt;br /&gt;oil and shoyu is really good btw, if you can find it :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Know about the wheat allergies to gluten and things? I knew a young A.D.D.&lt;br /&gt;kid who definitally was worse after eating many common things, so he had&lt;br /&gt;a really restricted diet.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway yea its that time of the year now, need to be lighter and bouncier and&lt;br /&gt;clearer and more direct. 4-6 hours of sleep and lots of activity. I can't complain.&lt;br /&gt;I seem to deviate from the plan because of outside influences and emotions,&lt;br /&gt;which I think guide most of my eating decisions, but less as learn more about&lt;br /&gt;acid/alkaline and things. A lot of the online resources I found are located at&lt;br /&gt;http://del.icio.us/terbospeed/food :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Eatrawmeat.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/14949812-4121664255827215512?l=terbospeed.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://terbospeed.blogspot.com/feeds/4121664255827215512/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=14949812&amp;postID=4121664255827215512' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14949812/posts/default/4121664255827215512'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14949812/posts/default/4121664255827215512'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://terbospeed.blogspot.com/2007/06/eat-raw-meat-eat-raw-food-eat-organic.html' title='eat raw meat - eat raw food - eat organic food'/><author><name>Chad B.</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15925579548859087882</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_M1MeDQB7p7o/ShohXQi3m4I/AAAAAAAAAEs/M9PTx_R3GKs/S220/stepping-off-the-spaceship2.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14949812.post-5162051960813296987</id><published>2007-06-04T02:53:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-07-18T02:57:30.732-07:00</updated><title type='text'>a [complete] cycle of fire</title><content type='html'>a complete circle of fire&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I came up with the title hours ago. I was on my way to write about&lt;br /&gt;the event. But since then several others have occured. I will begin&lt;br /&gt;at the begginning.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I was given three dreams today. Dreams that I would take with me&lt;br /&gt;across the country, in hopes of healing the senders of the dreams.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The first was given to me in exchange for some rolling papers that&lt;br /&gt;I had no use for. A good sized piece of jade was given to me by Nick.&lt;br /&gt;The dream was not the intention.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The second was given to me by Gabriella. She is an enlightened person.&lt;br /&gt;Of course she has been paired with Marty for some time, and I think&lt;br /&gt;that they are a great match in terms of pure energy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The third was given to me by Barry Frazy. It was a peanut. It was&lt;br /&gt;to be consumed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Gabriella is always jumping up and down about something. For some&lt;br /&gt;people it makes them ignore her and think that she is crazy. But&lt;br /&gt;the first time I saw her, in her face, in her eyes, in her energy,&lt;br /&gt;I could see that she was a very bright star. She recognized me at&lt;br /&gt;that moment.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nick I noticed walking up to the Community Assitance Program; he&lt;br /&gt;reminded me so much of Gordon the young drummer that I jumped&lt;br /&gt;outside and said Yo! Whats up! Since I havent seen G in months&lt;br /&gt;and months. (Theme of almost everyone I saw today). As I was&lt;br /&gt;shaking his hand, and he was saying whats up with as much gusto,&lt;br /&gt;I noticed that he looked alot different than G up close. In any&lt;br /&gt;case we struck up a conversation, because obviously two young &lt;br /&gt;people at a place that usually helps [homeless] people probaly have&lt;br /&gt;something in common ,or to share or learn. He was looking for&lt;br /&gt;a free lunch.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Barry, I shall not write about this.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We were sitting in the community gardens. They were loud as usual,&lt;br /&gt;there was hard liquor going around. At one point Gabriella approaches&lt;br /&gt;me and asks if I can take a picture with my phone of me how I would&lt;br /&gt;like to be seen. Of course; I told her that she could take as many&lt;br /&gt;pictures as she wanted.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It took her a moment to figure out which way to point it. My screen&lt;br /&gt;isn't visible in sunlight so she was turning it in all types of&lt;br /&gt;obscene directions trying to figure it out. I've never seen anything&lt;br /&gt;like so, (except for the next person who took pictures, later today)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I told her to press it and hold it down. The center button would do&lt;br /&gt;everything. But I was not currently aware that it would only take&lt;br /&gt;one picture, because I usually spazz press it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So she was having the most outrageous conversation with me. It was&lt;br /&gt;all inprov, and her mind was OUT THERE. She was using it to evoke&lt;br /&gt;certain emotions from me, to feel and look certain ways for the&lt;br /&gt;camera. It was amazing, I couldnt help my self.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After this she sat down, and thinking we had taken at least 20 pics,&lt;br /&gt;found one. Oh well, she went into something about Rob-O thinking&lt;br /&gt;she was a witch, so don't tell him. After this, she thought about&lt;br /&gt;traveling across with me. I could probaly take a whole van, &lt;br /&gt;physically, but not astrally.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;She began something about race. She talked about me being a&lt;br /&gt;virile, young, black male, who was intelligent. I thought to&lt;br /&gt;my self, well, I guess, but add crazy too, distracting), and&lt;br /&gt;she said some other things .. I told her my idea of why our&lt;br /&gt;union of 3 was broken apart so violently, and that I thought&lt;br /&gt;that there may be active energies out there specifically&lt;br /&gt;against us (chad jake andrei).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I then took a photo or two of her. She then told me that she&lt;br /&gt;wanted to give me something, that she had made. She said that&lt;br /&gt;it reminded her of my dreads. It was a tight; perfectly twisted&lt;br /&gt;strands of leather. I found no imperfections; she told me the&lt;br /&gt;story behind it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;She was once a very balanced person. She holds MBA and an MBS.&lt;br /&gt;She was also an engineer. These could be myths, who knows. (IDO)&lt;br /&gt;So she gives me this and asks that I take it with me on the trip.&lt;br /&gt;She told me that it likes to be oiled regularly, weather with&lt;br /&gt;lotion, oil, or human sweat.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;She asked me that if I could take it with me, and everytime I&lt;br /&gt;saw it ask that one day she could take the Journey also, that&lt;br /&gt;maybe it could just happen.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;She is a saggitarrius. She said that she would follow me,&lt;br /&gt;Aries, wherever I went. I would start it, she would end it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;the baby the adult the elder the spark the fire the coal&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After she gave that to me I felt the urge to leave. As&lt;br /&gt;she gave it to me I cried, realizing what she was asking&lt;br /&gt;me to do. Save her. Help her in some way. She had been&lt;br /&gt;addicted to methamphetamines for nearly 20 years.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;hr&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I ventured to rainbow bridge to acquire liquid nutrients.&lt;br /&gt;Thirsty. Sweating a lot. Green juice, coconut water. Mm.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Waiting to be served I ran into a lady whose name is quite&lt;br /&gt;distinct. I immediatly remembered having met her. She stood&lt;br /&gt;next to me, looked at me and smiled, and something old was&lt;br /&gt;exchanged; I can't quite remember. I asked her if I had met&lt;br /&gt;her before. She told me yes, and I had asked her that same&lt;br /&gt;question. She told me before that, we met, and I didn't&lt;br /&gt;remember her. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On the set of a Rosa Parks documentary. A few years ago.&lt;br /&gt;I never got payed as an extra; but I had dreads that we&lt;br /&gt;tried to hide in a pool scene so who knows if it was&lt;br /&gt;even used. Lol.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I relayed that I was traveling, she said she was also.&lt;br /&gt;She told me she had just returned from Alaska, and was&lt;br /&gt;going to St. Croi. I could see the amazement in her face,&lt;br /&gt;and how she handeled it. I almost jumped up in the air, &lt;br /&gt;haha, Alaska ! But then I've been really excited all day,&lt;br /&gt;at every ant and leaf and butterfly that passes by. lol.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;She told me to go to L.A., and maybe in N.Y., to get an&lt;br /&gt;emergency passport.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(I had to move my car - my phone wasnt working - and I think&lt;br /&gt;that the guy sitting next to me called the cops! I have&lt;br /&gt;never seen them just RIDE through the park, in TWOS. They&lt;br /&gt;only come one or two at a time, but STOP and walk THROUGH&lt;br /&gt;the park. I guess a sweaty black kid walking around with&lt;br /&gt;a cell phone talking to himself half the time is kind of&lt;br /&gt;scary establishmentwise. Geeze.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway Theory booklet no script improv lets all just act&lt;br /&gt;out our pain&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After meeting (I want to say Hypatia, but not quite) I ran&lt;br /&gt;outside into 2 other beings who I seldomly meet who have&lt;br /&gt;incredible stories, Sasha and Lonny Jr. It was incredible.&lt;br /&gt;I don't remember it. But I may still. I then got someone&lt;br /&gt;to take pictures of 3 black people in Ojai! All dreaded,&lt;br /&gt;two young one old. Lonny's father has since cut his dreads,&lt;br /&gt;but they were short. We're all shoulder-rockers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Joanne Terry appears and takes lots of pictures for us.&lt;br /&gt;Very cool. We have a long talk in the post office about&lt;br /&gt;how her mail was returned when the landlord put 'family'&lt;br /&gt;on the change of address form. She lost some portion of&lt;br /&gt;her mail and it has bothered her since then so I went with&lt;br /&gt;her to change MY address. It was a most hilarious situation,&lt;br /&gt;I just wish I had brought my tape recorder along the ENTIRE&lt;br /&gt;day.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I then went and hung out with Matt Sewell. Hes been really&lt;br /&gt;kicking butt and burning all the pages with names on them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The company he works with is iLike.com. Kick it to that name.&lt;br /&gt;A million dollars for it! I would! Last week, on facebook.com,&lt;br /&gt;after releasing the iLike library to the public, they recieved&lt;br /&gt;1,300,000 new users signing up. As we were sitting there&lt;br /&gt;for 20 minutes discussing it, 2000 more people signed up.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ok, stay calm now. I really hope they can offer value added&lt;br /&gt;services that are ahead of the curve. This guy needs to be&lt;br /&gt;rich, torment is a bitch.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ok after that I checked online and found that I had insulted&lt;br /&gt;the person with which I would like to make amends. I wish ..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Time tells. Say hi if you want to comment here. ;X&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I don't know what to do, I need a camera crew, to just follow&lt;br /&gt;me around and record what I do .. but an invisible one, because&lt;br /&gt;truckloads of gear kind of make people act ... &lt;i&gt;differently&lt;/i&gt; ...&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/14949812-5162051960813296987?l=terbospeed.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://terbospeed.blogspot.com/feeds/5162051960813296987/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=14949812&amp;postID=5162051960813296987' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14949812/posts/default/5162051960813296987'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14949812/posts/default/5162051960813296987'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://terbospeed.blogspot.com/2007/07/complete-cycle-of-fire.html' title='a [complete] cycle of fire'/><author><name>Chad B.</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15925579548859087882</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_M1MeDQB7p7o/ShohXQi3m4I/AAAAAAAAAEs/M9PTx_R3GKs/S220/stepping-off-the-spaceship2.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14949812.post-658423854030202880</id><published>2007-06-04T02:50:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-07-18T02:52:24.140-07:00</updated><title type='text'>sometimes i think i am a shaman - with no focus</title><content type='html'>Before pasting what I wrote, I wanna know why I have to be listening, viewing, or reading something.&lt;br /&gt;Why can't I just be sitting in a still and quiet room. Or something. Anyway. I dont wanna know.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;hr&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sometimes I think I am a shaman.&lt;br /&gt;Then I come to a place like Ojai,&lt;br /&gt;and I know I am.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These people that I have met are incredible&lt;br /&gt;individuals. Their recipies for reaching these&lt;br /&gt;conclusions always appear differently. They all&lt;br /&gt;share similar high-quality traits and experiences.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We share abilities, sensitivities, cycles.&lt;br /&gt;Anyway, thats not what I'm here to write about.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I dont know what - er I'm gonna just write about&lt;br /&gt;today.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;hr&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Seat back, head back. Music playing, kind of destracting. But it doesn't matter.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On this day I was able to experience a movie so&lt;br /&gt;well planned out that I feel blessed to have been&lt;br /&gt;a part in it. I ponder and awe at the directors&lt;br /&gt;and writers and other actors and the millions of&lt;br /&gt;support crew that were required to make this day&lt;br /&gt;happen.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;With not enough sleep I became manic again and drove&lt;br /&gt;at slightly dangerous high speeds down the 166 to the&lt;br /&gt;33 mountain highway. The planned meetings were thrown&lt;br /&gt;off to an extent by my reluctance to wake up and face&lt;br /&gt;the day despite how much tired I could feel as I went&lt;br /&gt;from sleeping awakeness to daytime awakeness.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I remember a dream involving me and my dad in the so&lt;br /&gt;called basement, which isn't under a single thing but&lt;br /&gt;the sky .. he pulls out a big black binder (one may&lt;br /&gt;be visible around his office, im not sure) and says&lt;br /&gt;hes going to calculate my mileage or something of&lt;br /&gt;that nature. We have been having a conversation on&lt;br /&gt;how to accuratly figure out gas usage, but he keeps&lt;br /&gt;trying to tell me I'm doing it wrong, because its&lt;br /&gt;really important to him. I kinda want to not go on&lt;br /&gt;really wack roads that have no gas stations on them.&lt;br /&gt;I like the idea of truck stops.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I left at about 8:30, arriving in Ojai at around&lt;br /&gt;11am. What a crock, either the 30 minute wait as&lt;br /&gt;they repaved the 166 .. two lane highways kind of&lt;br /&gt;suck for that. But I figure that I incurred more&lt;br /&gt;risk, and had more freakin fun, so .. I shall never&lt;br /&gt;drive like that again. Unless situations require it!&lt;br /&gt;(learned there ..?)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ok so I like to remember whats going on and be able&lt;br /&gt;to figure out the most important stuff and document&lt;br /&gt;it because I am being shown things that I will need&lt;br /&gt;to access later and also relay and transmit to a great&lt;br /&gt;others.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Vida is great, shes into raw food. Her profile is&lt;br /&gt;private though, it contains hundreds of her dreams,&lt;br /&gt;so shes kind of sensy to that. But shes currently&lt;br /&gt;blogging about that; I lived in a house with some&lt;br /&gt;gourmet raw foodists .. I think they are still in&lt;br /&gt;Ojai but doing mainly raw ice cream now. So much for&lt;br /&gt;their dream, but it might not have been that feasible.&lt;br /&gt;They were incredible people, but had their own&lt;br /&gt;personality flaws, and did not seem to be able&lt;br /&gt;to talk about that with the people they placed their&lt;br /&gt;selves around. Very high energy/vibration, but I've&lt;br /&gt;actually lived with so few of them that .. well maybe,&lt;br /&gt;I lived in one place in Ojai. I could go to others ..&lt;br /&gt;but I don't know, sometimes I just wanna see other&lt;br /&gt;places. For free.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway food is good, I drink coconut water, green&lt;br /&gt;juice, ate 2 apples and a prune, and, umm, yea.&lt;br /&gt;Yay! Yay! Yay I said yay! yay! (and a few raisins!&lt;br /&gt;and my stomache began to hurt slightly.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Uh, I will attempt to focus a bit; it will get&lt;br /&gt;easier in a few days I suppose. I need to leave&lt;br /&gt;soon, or when the time is right, or I'm too late,&lt;br /&gt;but whatever, I'm gonna write ...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So what was so special about today. I'm just wasting&lt;br /&gt;space. Arent I. If I had a hot coal placed to the same&lt;br /&gt;spot each time I stopped focusing I THINK I WOULD LEARN&lt;br /&gt;BUT I MIGHT SPEAK LIKE THIS FOR A FEW DAYS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well a superhuman was reintroduced in a human form.&lt;br /&gt;The memories of this super human will eventually fade.&lt;br /&gt;The human is more valuable. These analogies are in terms&lt;br /&gt;of how much mental pull a person has.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I chose to come and write here instead of trying to&lt;br /&gt;remember if she would be up at 12am when shes working&lt;br /&gt;at 9. lol probaly not ;) &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The day has some subjects to remember. I had to consume&lt;br /&gt;something that made me forget though. Just a little bit.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I wonder about the influence of my environment on my&lt;br /&gt;dreams. I know when I moved to Josephs I immediatly&lt;br /&gt;had interesting dreams.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;hr&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I told Terry and Amber that I was not going to resign&lt;br /&gt;myself to being a 15.99$/hr person, or $20.00/hr person,&lt;br /&gt;thats another number .. I want to create art and try and&lt;br /&gt;get as much for it as I can. Terry has incredible creative&lt;br /&gt;ability but I've only seem him release it a few times in&lt;br /&gt;the past several years. :(&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One day. Jake is highly creative too, but his hard drive&lt;br /&gt;just broke, as it was hanging in a BAD place, which *I*&lt;br /&gt;didn't notice could have been easily moved, so it fell.&lt;br /&gt;250gb of my music/videos and some of his stuff dead. :(&lt;br /&gt;Plus he has no internet. He is probaly having a pretty&lt;br /&gt;bad time actually. THERES NO PLACE FOR HIM TO GO.&lt;br /&gt;(Well, he has reason, some other music apps)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Except with me, and I just instinctivly shrugged, &lt;br /&gt;unconsciously. I wonder what that means. I mean, I&lt;br /&gt;like doing for others what I wish someone would do&lt;br /&gt;to me one day, and I guess thats quite a feat, so&lt;br /&gt;maybe it would be a good choice. His GMA could probaly&lt;br /&gt;fly him out of there if he REALLY wanted to leave.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lol, otherwise its just me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i don't think ive been focusing&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I guess i have, scrolling up&lt;br /&gt;I feel very weird. Its going to be pretty hard to get&lt;br /&gt;past this initial discomfort. Then, comes the real pain.&lt;br /&gt;After that is the bad stuff.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have to read because soda is in this keyboard and it&lt;br /&gt;makes typos for me! Damn. Foot cramps suck when walking&lt;br /&gt;places. Ok well thats enough of the day time to go to&lt;br /&gt;dream. ~~ and it got darker ... ~&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/14949812-658423854030202880?l=terbospeed.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://terbospeed.blogspot.com/feeds/658423854030202880/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=14949812&amp;postID=658423854030202880' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14949812/posts/default/658423854030202880'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14949812/posts/default/658423854030202880'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://terbospeed.blogspot.com/2007/06/sometimes-i-think-i-am-shaman-with-no.html' title='sometimes i think i am a shaman - with no focus'/><author><name>Chad B.</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15925579548859087882</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_M1MeDQB7p7o/ShohXQi3m4I/AAAAAAAAAEs/M9PTx_R3GKs/S220/stepping-off-the-spaceship2.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14949812.post-8472657816939101273</id><published>2007-06-04T02:15:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-07-18T03:04:57.500-07:00</updated><title type='text'>on the defensive</title><content type='html'>Last night it took around 2 hours of writing to finish that blog entry.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After I felt it was done I lay in my old van, which was absent of everything&lt;br /&gt;allowing me ample space to lie down. What a laugh!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At around 4am I fell asleep. Yawning but not able to follow through.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is about my parents.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yesterday in the hour long talk with my grandmother she expressed&lt;br /&gt;intrest in helping me publish my writings.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This morning my dad told me that he bought me a book to read,&lt;br /&gt;that he thought would be helpful. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And these situations describe the great amount of disconnection&lt;br /&gt;we share.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;First off, my writing is published. It is unorganized.&lt;br /&gt;It has been so for some time. My main interest has always been&lt;br /&gt;in performing, and not writing. And not selling, getting payed to&lt;br /&gt;perform. And if I don't own a microphone, or a decent computer,&lt;br /&gt;or a video camera, hows I'm supposed to do that now?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Especially without a good place to record, a studio, or a large&lt;br /&gt;enough van ...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So my toughbook is showing its age. The battery won't hold a full&lt;br /&gt;charge after less than 2 years. And of the FEW things that can go&lt;br /&gt;wrong on this machine, the power connector is wobbly. So I've&lt;br /&gt;been asking for help getting a new laptop for ages; but my grandmother&lt;br /&gt;tells me that she'll help pay to get me published. ?!?!??!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It's not even really about the equipment, its nice, its more about&lt;br /&gt;the energy of the space I am creating _in_. I've not found a place&lt;br /&gt;that has good vibes and will allow me to fully express. Yelling is&lt;br /&gt;definitally necessary and no ears get to hear it until its done;&lt;br /&gt;thats why everyone has such small houses and properties right?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The house in NYC was DEFINITALLY a place I could be creative.&lt;br /&gt;Makin beats in the attic! Skirtin danger in the basement!&lt;br /&gt;So many rooms to enjoy! Lol. Now everything is 1 and 2 stories.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So beyond them not seeming to want to further my creativity ...&lt;br /&gt;My grandmother said that she read the hundred pages of my&lt;br /&gt;old blog. I call her bluff! Maybe she's changing, but her conversation&lt;br /&gt;doesn't seem to be much at all related. I tell my dad over and over&lt;br /&gt;again that I write a lot; he says that he wants to help.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They repeatedly go, "what can we do!?!" after I explain something&lt;br /&gt;that would help. It goes through them and has a better place on the&lt;br /&gt;wall they are standing in front of. Conspiracy!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So this morning my dad wakes me, asking me to park outside so&lt;br /&gt;I don't take the gate clicker. I've had around 3 hours of sleep. No&lt;br /&gt;glasses, eyes full of sleep, stumbling with a half lit smoke, they&lt;br /&gt;decide to try and push negative energy into me, because thats&lt;br /&gt;all they have a lot of the time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He bought this book. I saw it a few days ago, and didn't like it,&lt;br /&gt;from the cover. Maybe to do with the book that I ALREADY own&lt;br /&gt;that I've been trying to get through for .. around 4 years now.&lt;br /&gt;Written by a very advanced being. About subjects that are very&lt;br /&gt;rarely covered. I remember earlier this year trying to explain&lt;br /&gt;what was in the book, and why it was so important, and tryed&lt;br /&gt;to get him to take some time away from his job and house to&lt;br /&gt;read it with me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Unfortunatly he tells me, this morning, with the 'new' book he has,&lt;br /&gt;that its "my" problem and "I" need to read the book. I begin trying&lt;br /&gt;to explain to him that I havent desired to or been able to read a book&lt;br /&gt;since before I had my hair. I just don't find interest in focusing. Nor have&lt;br /&gt;I even watched ANY videos over 20 minutes. But when I say this to him&lt;br /&gt;he wants to put me on the defensive, like everything I've said means more,&lt;br /&gt;not what it was, and then it needs to be proved.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3 hours of sleep. I wanted to scream my lungs to the sky.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I was unable to retire after this. Quite angry at their indolence.&lt;br /&gt;My problem. Your problem is that you're afraid of something I&lt;br /&gt;have, and something you've done. Your problem is that you've&lt;br /&gt;put your priorities before all of your kids, because "your" life&lt;br /&gt;needs work. We never realize that we don't have individual lives&lt;br /&gt;and that the lives of the people around us effect us greatly.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Like I've put up with trying to take care of jake for ages ..&lt;br /&gt;we don't even share blood ..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Speaking of Jake I brought him to bakersfield so they could see&lt;br /&gt;the shape he was in. Brenda "ignored" it, as she does with a lot&lt;br /&gt;of things in her life. Fred thought he was ok, but a little out of it.&lt;br /&gt;Oh how wrong, he was basically useless, and couldn't complete&lt;br /&gt;one single task to save his life. So they never saw him for what&lt;br /&gt;he was, fubar.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now I've got a little tired, and the same silly situation to go to&lt;br /&gt;after trying to communicate to these people I've known for so&lt;br /&gt;long. I think Keiter said it best, in a sad drunkenness:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"I've known him for (some time over 20) years now. If he can't&lt;br /&gt;figure out what I'm doing, and why I'm doing it, then theres something&lt;br /&gt;WRONG.".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Leave it to a derelict to speak truth so simple. It goes both ways though.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My thoughts are too strong. I live in my head. I can feel it. It makes it&lt;br /&gt;hard to feel others. Almost impossible.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I still don't communicate well with these people. /sigh&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;hr&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To which Nelly mumbled:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"My thoughts are too strong. I live in my head. I can feel it. It makes it&lt;br /&gt;hard to feel others. Almost impossible."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I feel the frustraition dripping off your words. I think some people are destined to be always misunderstood. We see the world differently. That same view, allows us to create art that touches other people and allows them temporarily to see the world through our eyes. That same view, undoubtedly seperates us much from other people. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hang in there. My family thought I was crazy for a while. Who's to say I'm not? Why conform and be normal. I say the sky is purple and god damn it, IT IS!!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nelly&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Whats up with your status as divorced, 19 years old, 4' 2" &amp; more love?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nelly&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;.... skys purple&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/14949812-8472657816939101273?l=terbospeed.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://terbospeed.blogspot.com/feeds/8472657816939101273/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=14949812&amp;postID=8472657816939101273' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14949812/posts/default/8472657816939101273'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14949812/posts/default/8472657816939101273'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://terbospeed.blogspot.com/2007/06/on-defensive.html' title='on the defensive'/><author><name>Chad B.</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15925579548859087882</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_M1MeDQB7p7o/ShohXQi3m4I/AAAAAAAAAEs/M9PTx_R3GKs/S220/stepping-off-the-spaceship2.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14949812.post-2038124413239991411</id><published>2007-06-03T03:06:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-07-18T03:09:34.648-07:00</updated><title type='text'>oops i've said too much.</title><content type='html'>its just one of many moons though.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Re:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;you said too much, but didn't say the right things.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;pfft.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;you're right about one thing. this is one of many moons.&lt;br /&gt;they come around on a regular cycle.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;and you should never abuse a full moon.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/14949812-2038124413239991411?l=terbospeed.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://terbospeed.blogspot.com/feeds/2038124413239991411/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=14949812&amp;postID=2038124413239991411' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14949812/posts/default/2038124413239991411'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14949812/posts/default/2038124413239991411'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://terbospeed.blogspot.com/2007/07/oops-ive-said-too-much.html' title='oops i&apos;ve said too much.'/><author><name>Chad B.</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15925579548859087882</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_M1MeDQB7p7o/ShohXQi3m4I/AAAAAAAAAEs/M9PTx_R3GKs/S220/stepping-off-the-spaceship2.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14949812.post-1447337589406327171</id><published>2007-06-03T02:58:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-07-18T03:47:23.065-07:00</updated><title type='text'>it was more than just a dream</title><content type='html'>Waking up to the usual .. but wait, it was more than just a dream!&lt;br /&gt;That is part of todays theme.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cessation of smoking causes a release, or at least, a greater awareness&lt;br /&gt;of the dreaming processes. So the first dream I remembered upon waking&lt;br /&gt;was short, a mere moment.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;pre&gt;&lt;br /&gt;She was standing in front of me. I felt affection and embarrasment.&lt;br /&gt;Though it did not seem like we were about to kiss, that is what it&lt;br /&gt;felt like. She came closer as I noticed my vision was basically seated&lt;br /&gt;on the back of my tongue. She was peering into my mouth, and I was&lt;br /&gt;opening it, as she expressed some sort of amazement or awe.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This was the dream I woke from. As I continued through the day,&lt;br /&gt;another dream's memory would be released by a similar, waking&lt;br /&gt;act.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, after reflecting on this for a short period, I walked around my&lt;br /&gt;dads property (more like, from the car to the patio and back),&lt;br /&gt;and thought about the discomfort I felt. I usually wake up with&lt;br /&gt;something to remove the grogginess. This time, my dad came&lt;br /&gt;out and we spoke of plans; somewhere I picked up a little&lt;br /&gt;inspiration and finished cleaning out my old house, then took&lt;br /&gt;it to get vacuumed; it still needs to be detailed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So after this cleansing task, I put on the album by Sekou Sundiata.&lt;br /&gt;I find it hard to not see prophecy when he speaks. He narrated my&lt;br /&gt;experiences and thoughts for just under an hour.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;His words: "After 27 years running behind time, but he could never be late .."&lt;br /&gt;Opened up the album. "Once I married a women when her back was turned.".&lt;br /&gt;"Its not the heat, its the humidity .." ..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I checked my email and found .. I don't know what I found,&lt;br /&gt;that was so profound. But I considered this to be&lt;br /&gt;the beginning of my day.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I found a link; I want to relate this.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;She was human like me. If thats what I am; shes like me.&lt;br /&gt;And she wants to live. She wants to live her dreams.&lt;br /&gt;I bet she could speak with ease. Her vocabulary teases me;&lt;br /&gt;what else do you know? Shes just human, I keep reminding myself.&lt;br /&gt;Our parents were super-heroes; what does that make us? ...&lt;br /&gt;Just people who can create that one day. Its something humans do.&lt;br /&gt;They find mates for one reason or another.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I like the explanation but why does it feel so .. un-natural?&lt;br /&gt;I avoid the interaction women bring. I think they have been&lt;br /&gt;abused by us. The cycle started outside of us both though.&lt;br /&gt;Thats my idea on why its so hard to get someone to reveal&lt;br /&gt;to you what you already saw in their eyes and body movement,&lt;br /&gt;in their voice and choice of words and bursts and losses&lt;br /&gt;of energy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Some seem to take this information and use it for leverage.&lt;br /&gt;Some power. So my image of me becomes your image of me.&lt;br /&gt;My words are now the words you would use. In this exchange&lt;br /&gt;it seems lies the problem; a sensitivity. I think this is&lt;br /&gt;one step in love; the second is being aware of the energy&lt;br /&gt;that can cause so much influence. Its easier to hurt those&lt;br /&gt;closer, when you don't know.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"He was thinking about the secret of life ..."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This energy fades. Initial infatuation. Now for the work.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Honestly I'd really like to stop thinking of my self in this&lt;br /&gt;tiny perspective. I'd like to take on someone elses. I've gone&lt;br /&gt;years looking this way and no one will help me tidy up. How odd;&lt;br /&gt;I can't find my place no matter where I am. Or, its always changing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I've got this image of me and I know its wrong.&lt;br /&gt;I need to use your eyes for some time.&lt;br /&gt;You will be able to use them too,&lt;br /&gt;in a growing context.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In a tree somewhere a nest of young sparrows was being expelled.&lt;br /&gt;A few of them could not fly; we saw one in a tree, and when I&lt;br /&gt;got closer to see him he flew .. low and with obvious struggle,&lt;br /&gt;but he flew, right into the half-opened window of my van.&lt;br /&gt;Luckily he wasn't flying very fast. As he fluttered closer&lt;br /&gt;to the rear-view mirror it appeared as I would have a new pet.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then a fellow flying sparrow came to him, and they both flew&lt;br /&gt;back to the tree.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Later on, I saw two other birds jumping on the ground. I fed&lt;br /&gt;one some cracker crumbs; he was sitting under a bush trying&lt;br /&gt;to sleep .. and let me so close that I could tell he was&lt;br /&gt;exhausted. He stayed there all day, but when I went back&lt;br /&gt;to check after an hour or so he was gone. I'm guessing catfood.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dad said don't feed him too much because he might think thats&lt;br /&gt;how life is.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As I left the house again across from the swap-meet parking lot&lt;br /&gt;was a group of kids playing music, with trumpets, violins ..&lt;br /&gt;I can't describe what this music was. :O&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Its odd; though the day felt very long, and I felt like I had&lt;br /&gt;energy, all I have to show is one suitcase packed full of clothes&lt;br /&gt;and a (cleaner) van to sell. Oh, and one less pack of ciggarettes ..&lt;br /&gt;(and a couple more pages)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For some reason after the profound yet simple inspiration I&lt;br /&gt;received electronically I began to think differently. Maybe,&lt;br /&gt;to suit the sender. Well, my heart begs for these changes too.&lt;br /&gt;(and my lungs, and my g.i. ..). The cravings did not 'go away'&lt;br /&gt;they completely disappeared. Therefor this was one full day of&lt;br /&gt;conscious sobriety...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After being majorly manic most of the day I decided to buy&lt;br /&gt;more smokes. I was immediatly calmed. Not a sleepy calming,&lt;br /&gt;like cannabis, but calmer than I WAS. I don't think it works&lt;br /&gt;continually, which is why they sell them in such large packages;&lt;br /&gt;if I had one I might have been ok. :X&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Its weird how I have delegated control of my moods to so many&lt;br /&gt;external entities. I'm stupid enough to know that removing&lt;br /&gt;such (apparent) power from ones self is a total loss; but&lt;br /&gt;some times the benefits of this habit can outweigh the negatives.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Today I realized the exchange that took place in January of 2004.&lt;br /&gt;I traded some of my mental capability and capacity for&lt;br /&gt;the ability to channel this art.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Without the ability to communicate what is it worth though?&lt;br /&gt;My mind, if it cannot be expressed. If it is begging to connect&lt;br /&gt;with anothers, but lacks the ability. What is it worth?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I realize that this art will become greater with time.&lt;br /&gt;And it will touch more lives than I could have ever with&lt;br /&gt;my mind alone. So I accept some loss of my self. I basically&lt;br /&gt;cannot be present while I am channeling; ego would get in the&lt;br /&gt;way. So we're desolving ego, I hope.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anywho. Its warm here tonight. Every night. The moon is just&lt;br /&gt;rising over the apartment complex, and it looks clouded though&lt;br /&gt;they are invisible in the sky. It is finally waxing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As I wrote that I found this page on Yahoo Answers:&lt;br /&gt;Whats the difference between a waxing moon and a waining moon? by &lt;a href='http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20070509151057AAyHdub'&gt;Chelle&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(this computers name, without an e - like a shell).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;pre&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But then I got tired.&lt;br /&gt;I pray for positive inspiration.&lt;br /&gt;Greater connections.&lt;br /&gt;Healing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;She allowed me to call her. I felt blessed, one step past infatuation.&lt;br /&gt;Though she may be very busy, I perform the role of the wind and float.&lt;br /&gt;There are times when I am better suited for communication. But I realize&lt;br /&gt;that I feel uncomfortable calling busy people; except my dad. I think&lt;br /&gt;I feel like I'm bothering them, especially when they are aggitated by&lt;br /&gt;their constant movement; now trying to relax. So I called her once&lt;br /&gt;making sure to miss the voicemail; I dont even want to use the phone&lt;br /&gt;really but 72 hours of driving is just a few days away. Which is&lt;br /&gt;weeks in reality .. lol. So I'll close my eyes and imagine hers when&lt;br /&gt;she speaks. Listen beyond her voice. Try and imagine her face speaking.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"I dont know much, but I seen a few .. and a few things have seen me too."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"by the time you read this, i'll be gone."&lt;br /&gt;but if you ever need to find me; i'll be in this poem"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To which she spoke from her neck:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I wonder if you're already gone. When I got home I saw the call on the caller id. It was pouring outside and I stopped to wait for the bus not wanting to get my books wet walking the 6 blocks from the train station. You missed me by minutes or I missed you by minutes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;72 hours isn't that long. And you're calls would be welcome regardless. Anytime of day, that I'm home, I'll pick up that call. I sometimes screen my phone calls, but I'm available when I'm available.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Still sleepy. Today is a coffee day, too bad I hate the stuff.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nelly&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;=)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thats 72 hours straight BTW.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hows bout now? :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm just fighting groggy myself.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/14949812-1447337589406327171?l=terbospeed.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://terbospeed.blogspot.com/feeds/1447337589406327171/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=14949812&amp;postID=1447337589406327171' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14949812/posts/default/1447337589406327171'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14949812/posts/default/1447337589406327171'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://terbospeed.blogspot.com/2007/07/it-was-more-than-just-dream.html' title='it was more than just a dream'/><author><name>Chad B.</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15925579548859087882</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_M1MeDQB7p7o/ShohXQi3m4I/AAAAAAAAAEs/M9PTx_R3GKs/S220/stepping-off-the-spaceship2.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14949812.post-2622062307355965968</id><published>2007-06-02T03:06:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-07-18T03:08:42.140-07:00</updated><title type='text'>then a hummingbird flew up to me</title><content type='html'>I heard a low buzzing behind me, and turned to see a hummingbird 3 feet from me. He flew back and forth, darting inches like he was the weight on a pendulum hanging from the sky. As he did this he flew closer and closer, inspecting me like I was a potential source of nutrients.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I don't know what this all means; I've not been so close to these birds except for on 1 or 2 occasions; I've also not felt this broken for some time either.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Laying here feeling overwhelming exhaustion, unable to sleep, a szeroquel was found in the old van ..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I remember what happened last time time.

As a human the challange is to see this.&lt;br /&gt;Our only method of enlightenment lies in our ability to see our perspective&lt;br /&gt;for what it is; a tiny fragment in a greater creation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;All great classical writings referred to as religious or spiritual / mystical&lt;br /&gt;contain the following points: They speak of a world greater than that which&lt;br /&gt;we exist in, which is perfect, containing greater beings which interact in our&lt;br /&gt;world; they speak of perfected beings who maintain a connection between&lt;br /&gt;these worlds and change those around them to see the greater reality; and&lt;br /&gt;they speak of methods for changing our experience to that of something&lt;br /&gt;described as better.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hinduism describes the world as an illusion, and the Buddha states that life&lt;br /&gt;is suffering. The Sufi parable The Islanders explains that all things that we&lt;br /&gt;consider human, all things nurtured by society, and all forms created by&lt;br /&gt;culture, are in existance to keep us away from this truth. The Bible says&lt;br /&gt;that you can only go to this truth after you die, but for the Christ inhabiting&lt;br /&gt;both places was natural.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Many fully enlightened beings have walked this earth; these stories are&lt;br /&gt;written or inspired by them. There is also a natural resistance to this truth,&lt;br /&gt;and a degredation over time of facts, so today many people believe that&lt;br /&gt;these greater existances are not for them, or will only come after they&lt;br /&gt;perform some empty ritual.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The war is emotional, it is mental, it is spiritual. It is a battle of energy&lt;br /&gt;versus energy, of subtle perceptions vs gross distractions. The strongest&lt;br /&gt;do not survive in this battle field.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Because it is a common subject there are many ways offered which claim&lt;br /&gt;to lead to richer, fuller lives. Differentiating amongst them can seem difficult,&lt;br /&gt;but after having certain experiences you may know your own path.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One common mis-perception is that there is no one around who really knows&lt;br /&gt;anything. There are many people who are very good at what they do, and a&lt;br /&gt;few less who are performing their purpose, but a quick trip to India debunks&lt;br /&gt;this myth. There are medicine men in reservations and cities across america.&lt;br /&gt;And some people, somewhere, remember the psychotheraputic properties&lt;br /&gt;of lsd.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So whats the point? What to do now? These thoughts circulate my head day&lt;br /&gt;and night to the point of sending signs in my dreams and causing me to&lt;br /&gt;hallucinate in the day. Many, many fragments exist. For me, focus and&lt;br /&gt;meditation are prescribed. My body likes a certain diet that does not stimulate&lt;br /&gt;my mind enough, and my innate physical ability is not being furthered.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My past is a secretive mystery not even known by me. Many events need&lt;br /&gt;to be brought up and discussed. More art needs to be created. Yea, yea,&lt;br /&gt;tastes good, mmm, throw some more art in there. You can never have&lt;br /&gt;enough art!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My dreams need to be studied, and lucid dreaming practiced. I also intake&lt;br /&gt;enough substances for about 3 people :( But thats related to why I don't&lt;br /&gt;dream and how I eat, and the unresolved past. Watching for some catalyst&lt;br /&gt;to propel me on this journey to clarity ...&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/14949812-5388553490754171174?l=terbospeed.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://terbospeed.blogspot.com/feeds/5388553490754171174/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=14949812&amp;postID=5388553490754171174' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14949812/posts/default/5388553490754171174'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14949812/posts/default/5388553490754171174'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://terbospeed.blogspot.com/2007/05/human-condition-situation.html' title='the human condition / situation'/><author><name>Chad B.</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15925579548859087882</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_M1MeDQB7p7o/ShohXQi3m4I/AAAAAAAAAEs/M9PTx_R3GKs/S220/stepping-off-the-spaceship2.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14949812.post-3406525131508504949</id><published>2007-05-30T03:17:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-07-18T03:17:54.311-07:00</updated><title type='text'>drunken freestyle</title><content type='html'>I GOTTA YELL WHEN IM SLURPIN ON MYERS AND MANGO OH WELL&lt;br /&gt;NO TELLIN WHAT FLAT HARD SURFACE I WILL BE TASTING&lt;br /&gt;I TRIED TO GET HOME BUT OUR TIME I WAS WASTING&lt;br /&gt;SHOULD I JUST GO IN A CORNER AND START UP FREEBASING?&lt;br /&gt;MANY OF MY FRIENDS SAY THAT IT IS A WORTHWHILE HOBBY&lt;br /&gt;THOUGH THEIR HIEGEN IS LACKING AND THEIR INTELLECT IS SHODDY&lt;br /&gt;I NEED NEW FRIENDS AND IT ALL REALLY DEPENDS ON&lt;br /&gt;IF YOU PLAY SOME MUSIC LIKE MINE AT YOUR PARTY&lt;br /&gt;IM SAYIN&lt;br /&gt;LAST MIC I GOT CONTROL OF I WASNT PLAYIN&lt;br /&gt;THEY HAD TO CALL AN AMBULANCE CUZ MY BODY THEY WERE SCRAPIN&lt;br /&gt;...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"PUT THE MIC DOWN!

The passing trip is causing me want to yell in rhythm&lt;br /&gt;but it won't come out. At least my throat is getting some excersize.&lt;br /&gt;I keep loosing things and doing other tasks and starting new ones&lt;br /&gt;half way in between. You would think it was the drugs; but I'm conditioned.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After one day of not sleeping (and a drunkeness that faded in a few hours),&lt;br /&gt;I was in an altered state. It used to take lots more .. But now I am making&lt;br /&gt;more changes when it comes and (trying) to reapproach old problems with&lt;br /&gt;new solutions. Or so I believe; I wish for a person with a video/camera to&lt;br /&gt;disprove me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Every time I put energy into how to record these various anomolies they&lt;br /&gt;change, even going so far as to hide. They are senstive to the thoughts and&lt;br /&gt;waves from the mediums. What next, my own 24 hour surveilance? I have&lt;br /&gt;no more room ... all of my computers are full ...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;All of this just proves that its about time to make a change.&lt;br /&gt;I'm going to place my self into a bunch of uncomfortable&lt;br /&gt;situations on a road with some vague fantasy at the end.&lt;br /&gt;I will rewrite the fantasy as time goes on to keep my self&lt;br /&gt;moving.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I think I've done this before, I can't really remember. ^_-&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;All that is left until completion of this ending cycle is&lt;br /&gt;is two vacuumings and adetailing. Then a sign purchasing,&lt;br /&gt;some griffiti endorsement, and some retainer fee collecting.&lt;br /&gt;Then I small formulate maps to NC and purchase a few&lt;br /&gt;last moment items and split.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I personally hope I don't make it, how about you?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Part of me knows that I am too old to do this. I should&lt;br /&gt;just settle down and have a family. But where? I am shooed&lt;br /&gt;away from every four sided dwelling I come near ...&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/14949812-2097110020254581429?l=terbospeed.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://terbospeed.blogspot.com/feeds/2097110020254581429/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=14949812&amp;postID=2097110020254581429' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14949812/posts/default/2097110020254581429'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14949812/posts/default/2097110020254581429'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://terbospeed.blogspot.com/2007/05/daze.html' title='a daze'/><author><name>Chad B.</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15925579548859087882</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_M1MeDQB7p7o/ShohXQi3m4I/AAAAAAAAAEs/M9PTx_R3GKs/S220/stepping-off-the-spaceship2.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14949812.post-3412027426082655620</id><published>2007-05-29T02:10:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-07-18T02:11:29.867-07:00</updated><title type='text'>an evolutionary jump (repost)</title><content type='html'>Sometimes, on marked occasions, I attempt to step out of the day to day&lt;br /&gt;mold of my life and assume new roles and personas. These occasions often&lt;br /&gt;incur large amounts of energy transfer. Discarding personal belongings,&lt;br /&gt;changing living situations and habits, and radical diet alterations are signs of&lt;br /&gt;the happening.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In this heightened sense of the world my connection with others seems&lt;br /&gt;to be greater; but still remains transitory. I run across many people who&lt;br /&gt;seem to be on similar paths, making similar choices, and we relate big&lt;br /&gt;ideas in short succession.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;However this particular path I have chosen seems pretty barren. The&lt;br /&gt;tumbleweed is rolling; the signs are blowing around in the wind, the&lt;br /&gt;compass is bipolar, and the map is torn, burnt, scribbled all over and&lt;br /&gt;barely readable. The national language is not the one you were born&lt;br /&gt;speaking, further confusing things, if that were at all possible.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Though disorientated amongst a 3D world with moving reference points,&lt;br /&gt;I have managed to see progress, and the same signs pointing in the&lt;br /&gt;same directions for some time. I've also jotted down a map, descernably&lt;br /&gt;better than of that provided.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Each time this jump is attempted something in me and my life is changed&lt;br /&gt;forever, but the jump is not completed. As energy does, the times when I&lt;br /&gt;can finish this task are varied. It rises, peaks, wains, and dies.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I've ridden the wave. I fall off at a certain point.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Each human is designed to be self sufficient but support is always healthy.&lt;br /&gt;The support I have been offered has felt dismal, and I am often too confused&lt;br /&gt;as to where to go for help on my own. The result is that when the evolutionary&lt;br /&gt;energy has left, so too has my own energy to keep the ritual going.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Even though much pain has been generated I feel that if this story is&lt;br /&gt;documented properly it will have all been worth it. If it is not, what little&lt;br /&gt;focused writing I have completed will serve as a dim pointer to&lt;br /&gt;what this is all about.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;[this went on, but went away, now i went to sleep]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As I age watching people whose lives I could have played a big part in&lt;br /&gt;go on paths that further seperate us. This story is personal, spiritual, emotional,&lt;br /&gt;and physical. I weave in and out of them unconsciously, soory.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I think people are unhappy because they are working the wrong jobs,&lt;br /&gt;associating with the wrong people, have the wrong hobbies, eat the&lt;br /&gt;wrong foods, and don't do the right excersizes. Or they don't get the&lt;br /&gt;right outputs, or take in the right things.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Before that comes proper assimilation of the past, evaluation of past events&lt;br /&gt;and decisions, and reevaluation as perspective grows. Working out obvious&lt;br /&gt;personality traits that are contradictory is a long process.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In my world I experience an extended version of what I assume most&lt;br /&gt;people go through in their late teens and early twenties. My workings&lt;br /&gt;through this phase are not noticed as generating any real cause for&lt;br /&gt;concern by those close to me. This causes me to believe that those&lt;br /&gt;considered immediatly connected are only slightly so.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My belief removes my faith in the system of interworkings known as&lt;br /&gt;the support group I was placed into, and pretty much makes me want&lt;br /&gt;to do more drugs. I don't even know if they are detrimental or beneficial&lt;br /&gt;at this point, for the long term at least, temporarily I have long term visions&lt;br /&gt;of a world in balance.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is a warning. It has been cried for many years. And what has happened&lt;br /&gt;in those years is that I have become stronger and more aware. Combined with&lt;br /&gt;that my internal chemical state has modified; certain foods really affect me now.&lt;br /&gt;Certain moods are really etchy now; I have had many panic attacks that were&lt;br /&gt;definitally related to drugs or the lack of them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My physical body is in unknown condition due to a general distrust of white coat&lt;br /&gt;people. My relationships are strained and distant, and even those who I think&lt;br /&gt;to be really like me are far away and unresponsive. Are these excuses? No,&lt;br /&gt;merely conclusions ...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Memory is definitally a greatly effected faculty. That is where this comes in.&lt;br /&gt;Focus has also desintegrated. Oh well. The last woman I was "with" went&lt;br /&gt;back to Germany and I heard shes having a kid and getting married.&lt;br /&gt;Woo for her.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The one before that has gone insane, at least in my eyes, so concerned about&lt;br /&gt;work and her own safety that she probaly wouldnt be suitable to produce&lt;br /&gt;and take care of a family anymore ... when I met her she was better though.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Alone for what reason .. where are we going with this ...&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/14949812-3412027426082655620?l=terbospeed.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://terbospeed.blogspot.com/feeds/3412027426082655620/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=14949812&amp;postID=3412027426082655620' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14949812/posts/default/3412027426082655620'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14949812/posts/default/3412027426082655620'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://terbospeed.blogspot.com/2007/05/evolutionary-jump-repost.html' title='an evolutionary jump (repost)'/><author><name>Chad B.</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15925579548859087882</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_M1MeDQB7p7o/ShohXQi3m4I/AAAAAAAAAEs/M9PTx_R3GKs/S220/stepping-off-the-spaceship2.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14949812.post-7208210377379295437</id><published>2007-05-25T02:08:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-07-18T02:10:12.520-07:00</updated><title type='text'>travellin music</title><content type='html'>i like how the windows rattle&lt;br /&gt;and appreciate the feeling it provides in my legs ...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i've got everything i need, right?&lt;br /&gt;two laptops, a two burner stove, two blankets,&lt;br /&gt;a suitcase full of not enough clothes, a keyboard,&lt;br /&gt;some movies and lots of music, and cruise control ...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;well if i had everything i needed i'd probaly just&lt;br /&gt;be sitting here getting fat working on my tan&lt;br /&gt;workin on my dream span&lt;br /&gt;workin on another story or another drink or&lt;br /&gt;workin on watching what i think ...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;and vice versa.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;acting without rehearsal&lt;br /&gt;improv is just that&lt;br /&gt;said but not thought and&lt;br /&gt;can't be taken as fact ...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;so stand back ..&lt;br /&gt;rel ... ok thats enough talking about food.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;hr&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;course the only cd i could find at first was themed revolutionary ...
