"The Only Lasting Thing...'

CoyotePrime at Running 'Cause I Can't Fly - 1 hour ago
"The unreal is more powerful than the real. Because nothing is as perfect as you can imagine it. Because its only intangible ideas, concepts, beliefs, fantasies that last. Stone crumbles. Wood rots. People, well, they die. But things as fragile as a thought, a dream, a legend, they can go on and on. If you can change the way people think, the way they see themselves, the way they see the world, you can change the way people live their lives. That's the only lasting thing you can create." - Chuck Palahniuk

*"Variation On A Theme By Rilke"* ("The Book of Hours, Book I, Poem 1, Stanza 1") "A certain day became a presence to me; there it was, confronting me- a sky, air, light: a being. And before it started to descend from the height of noon, it leaned over and struck my shoulder as if with the flat of a sword, granting me honor and a task. The day's blow rang out, metallic- or it was I, a bell awakened, and what I heard was my whole self saying and singing what it knew: I can." ~ Denise Levertov

As I was sitting in my chair working through my puzzle book, I found I was spending more time thinking about the current hoax on America being run by Bill Gates’ stooge, Anthony Fauci. Mr. Fauci claims to be a doctor of medicine, but I categorically refuse that. Every real doctor I know has some redeeming character and ethics, and Mr. Fauci has no redeeming values in the least. Anyway, the thought came to me, what is the difference between how one catches the flu as opposed to how one catches the coronavirus? We have seen in the last few … Continue reading →
