    ...a bird flying through a dark winter storm.

    Purely by accident the bird flies in through the window of a well-lit
    hall, where a banquet is in progress—a room full of light and warmth
    and music, of rich smells and fragrant smoke—but only for an instant.
    Before the bird even has time to understand where it is, it flies out
    through another window, back into the storm, never to see the light or
    feel the warmth again.

    ### - humanity doesn't live in the real world, and while i dunno if
    they're hiding exactly, nevertheless they live totally immersed in the
    ongoing storyline of their local lives flavoured by whatever culture they
    hail from... so it's all about what's on the tv, paying the bills and
    those new jeans or whatever they just bought + with a smattering of
    politics and fake news thrown in for the more intellectual amongst them
    heh, basically they're born and they die in that smaller-than-the-real
    world and it's all they ever know, or even care to know... anything
    'outside' of that directly contradicting the things they think they 'do'
    know, so no wonder they always immediately turn back, like addicts,
    if/whenever they bump into something from it 'coz it don't make any sense compared to what they think they already know ;)

    humanity and wtf is wrong with 'em all? (coz that's what we're talkin'
    'bout here)

    a humanity that sometimes still somehow shines-through all the crap!

    and a hopeful ending too, they have their terrible problems like every
    fucker does...

    but with just a little help they's tryin' to turn it all around and maybe
    even make it

    hard story for those with the eyes to see/understand...

    or even just the ears to hear it if you's blind hehe

    i had this movement i concocted back in the 70's.
    not really a physical movement but yet it was.
    i called it 'firmly forward'. It IS nothing but
    a state of mind. Ya just have to remember it and
    do it. everytime you feel like quitting or laying
    down or laying back you pull it out the deck and
    play it. It's always there, you just have to call
    on it. Don't let your shitty mind override you.

    ### - applied to WILDing such determination would, imho, likely succeed
    any time! every time! ;)

    to WILD or not to WILD, that seems to be the question heh? but can anyone
    be bothered enough?

    i.e., whether tis' nobler in the mind to suffer the outrageous
    rationalisations of the pussy-whipped mind that can't get off its fat arse
    to ever 'do' anything that isn't already an ingrained routine
    or, by gritting one's teeth, and singularly refusing to compromise, stand
    up on our own 2 fuckin' legs for once and in so doing end that condition forever! :)

    and that my friends is precisely what is wrong with wallyworld, what they 'call' free will is basically the same as having no will whatsoever!
    routine, routine, all is routinely routine? where's any awakened will in
    that??

    willpower is the complete opposite of dull (and dulling) routine!

    one first decides what needs to 'be' determined and then jolly well gets
    on with it! no fucking about!

    first the debate about what's a good thing to do or not and then the act! debate over!

    the only other option is to let someone (or something) make all your
    decisions for ya?

    fuck that! we've seen exactly what such slovenly behaviour leads to every
    time in wallyworld:

    an ostensibly ruined world and damaged humanity to boot!

    i.e., consider WILDing, and the 'ability' to handle it, an upgrade to our partial + defo-lacking human awareness... we have to start somewhere
    pulling our socks up don't we, so why not by WILDing?

    cc might have possibly said in this regard: it begins with a single act
    that has to be deliberately sustained until everything else gets outta the goddamn way and lets ya go through?

    WILDing is good enough, and wide enough, to start the job off, master that
    (and let's face it, it's not exactly rocket science is it heh, it's so
    simple a moron could do it!) and it actually opens a vast door into a
    whole new area of perception & exploration! not theoretically but actually!

    it's enough! it's actually more than enough to begin with! it's a solid
    step!

    humanity has to switch between being almost completely passive about being alive to taking an active hand in it all instead, we've done passive and
    now it's time for active!

    it's time to join the rest of the universe folks! we've been hiding from
    it all for far too long and now it's time to go back to it... we've been
    raised on milk but now it's time for some meat...

    if we want to survive/evolve that is ;)

    in the meanwhile: tea break's over again folks, back under ya's all go :)))

    (rant done heh)

    Life is...

    A theme song
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=enuOArEfqGo



    In my home world my child self appears sitting
    on my left leg, my left arm is around his shoulder.
    It seems to take collossal strength to close my arm
    tighter around him as if we are encased in diamond.
    I succeed and he is suddenly standing in front of me
    saluting with a chesire cat grin of immense pleasure
    in a black military uniform with chest medals and
    campaign ribbons signifying a completed circuit.
    This earth life takes 3.5 seconds of that worlds time rate.


    Life is...

    A theme song

    with...

    A beautiful girl
