What are you thinking about?

What a weird dream. I wonder what it means.

I had an image of a group of friendly blindfolded people wandering around a huge room filled with an unknown number of electrified elephants. Everyone has been shock-conditioned to not touch the elephants. No one wants to collide painfully with each other, or the elephants. Eventually, everyone develops an idea of where the elephants are, although no two people have the same map, or can share their experience much beyond vague comments like "watch out over there". No one knows for sure if they are actually elephants, if the elephants are actually moving, or if they're just disoriented from being shocked so much. They've almost given up wondering why the hell they are there.

Huh.

I had to stop and tell you thanks for the hearty laugh....

I don't know why I found that so funny... but I did!

 

No worries!

It was a tongue in cheek comment although probably true!

It takes some guts to say no to such situations, can't have them inspiring people...

I am thinking about buying Christmas stocking stuffers for my friends and family and it seems to be never-ending shopping trips.

I am also thinking about Christmas baking gingerbread and lemon ricotta cookie recipes and making homemade version of Bailey's Irish Cream (not sure what type of whiskey to use)...thinking right now, action should follow soon.

I am also thinking about recipes I've watched on youtube in making shower steamers...I can't settle on which recipe I want to use but soon, soon.

I am also thinking about DIY floating deck construction...sooo many DIY videos...soooo many.

Irish whiskey is the best for homemade Bailey’s!
Bushmills’s does very nicely and you don’t have to spend a lot for it!

Thanks Tecate, I will try it because you recommended it. I honestly know nothing about the tastes of all the varieties of whiskey out there. The recipe I was going to follow suggested Jameson's whiskey, which is also Irish. So Irish whiskey it will be.

Something bad is happening.

Something bad is happening.

Of all those things that happen to us, some we will call bad, and some, not.

I am curious... Can I help?

[Tecate]

I too am curious Sirius,

What is happening? Can you elaborate a bit?

Bad omens all over, ancient caldera's rumbling. Bad stuff on social media, posts of people dying suddenly viral again.

I hope none of these observations about seismicity, near Earth objects, and alignments are as 'bad' as the reporters make it sound.

They have often been wrong, and the use of exciting music scores, and efforts to associate disparate phenomenon kind of saddens me.

You see, people often 'create' or 'embellish' relevance by making alarming and enticing entries into the virtual sphere of information... and they are usually more intended to inflate their own importance...

but sometimes.. they actually do coincide with really bad things happening.

I can only pray that the worst is not impending... but I know that much of the natural world is "eventual."

Deep breaths, value each other, embrace togetherness... optimism holds its own value even when foiled by reality.
