If the crux of your knowledge comes from bloggers and celebrity moms, you may want to think twice before advising another that they should “read more.”

Nefertiti

What is air?
Fill your lungs with a breath of this incredibly nutritional yet completely invisible substance. Now take another yet deeper breath, slowly release the “air” from your lungs. We have labeled this substance air, or Oxygen. Air is abundantly and freely available within our atmosphere, and amazingly, we are also able to bottle and distribute this nutritional and invisible substance for “medical” and scientific / industrial purposes. What is Air?

The magic pill
I will do anything, he said, just make me better; x-rays are ok, surgeries are great, heck you can tickle me with a feather. After all was said and more was done, miracles performed, uphill battles won, he thought the work was over when he had never even begun. There is no task that other’s perform, to supplant the work you’ve never done, so if your goal is the magic pill, look no further if you’re not up to the task of applying your will.

Oblivious to grace
Have you ever considered where you would be without grace; the might of the universe through other beings so vibrantly displayed? Often too busy to realize that for granted we take first place, but not without the thankless-grace of the person in second place. When we turn in front of a speeding car and it swerves out of your careless way – that is grace that protected you, and gifted to you another day. Here’s a fact, if you subtract, the grace given throughout your day, you will find that your life is actually a coaborative, universal effort by all forces in the universe to keep you alive.
Now that you’re more aware of the grace upon you in your oblivious, daily race, take a moment and consider your role as a vessel to provide to others the same.

Maybe “Hell” is
Maybe “Hell” is where you return to conscious life as a shark or a gator and you are forced to draw vicious blood every time you get hungry; when you’re not being poached or cordoned off into an enclosure where people pay to see other people fuck with you. The universe has a sick sense of humor – it created us…

Being grateful
If you are grateful, you believe in a God, for otherwise you would not have anyone or anything to whom to be grateful towards.

Traveling the same route and saving time in your mind
Have you ever properly / consciously considered the reason why routes seem shorter the more you travel them. When we first travel a route, our brain computer is processing, logging and downloading both physical landmarks, olfactory & auditory data, and metaphysical elements such as our position in time / space along the route. Due to the stimulation of processing, logging and downloading this very large amount of data for the first time, the initial travel of the route is a high-latency / very conscious experience. On subsequent travels on this route, you are basically streaming with extremely low-latency because you have already downloaded / cached the heavy objects.

Technology is not new
Technology is not new, it has existed throughout all measurable-space; I don’t say “existed throughout all time and space” because “time” does not exist.
From a different view, you will realize that technology is not new. I propose it’s been there, on the other side of renaissance paintings – machines in the hide. You will see that each era or “period” is a pre-programmed sequence of events with a beginning and an end. This series of progressive sequences are what we call “history” and they provide a background to beings on earth; there are a number of theories on why this history was created to program people, perhaps for some kind of foundation for those that can’t handle the truth.

Water always finds its way
It is true that water always finds a way – I haven’t read anything on the subject, but presumably this is due to gravity; if there is always gravity, there will always be some kind of mass attempting to defeat it. In conversation with someone today, I mentioned that that it is important to be like water and find your way, though I immediately realized that even better than conventional water – it would be more useful to be like water with a purpose. Water with a plan. Not much in this third dimension could be more powerful than water with a plan.

Are you ever really forgiven
When the quo has shifted, and all is quiet – are you ever really forgiven.
When asked what would you give, and you have given all – are you ever really forgiven.
When truth is demanded, even after it has been presented – are you ever really forgiven.
The answer lies in the minds of the truly noble. True forgiveness is the most noble of gifts.

Slippery slope of Fascism
Fascism wrapped in an important cause? Think about it. After reading a fair bit about fascism, this flyer instructing people of “what to do” and particularly “what not to do” seems like it is following down the path of fascist ideology wrapped in a pretty package, leading the newly minted majority on a slippery slope. Simple engagement is the first step: Do what they say on Tuesday – everyone is doing it. Then what? What’s the next instruction from the leaders. Isn’t that what everyone is fighting against. A collective consciousness is NOT when everyone does what they are told – it is when everyone does what they know to be what is right without being instructed by the leaders. The general rule of thumb throughout history is that if people are being lead, it’s a good idea to be at the back of the line because they are probably being lead to slaughter for someone else’s benefit. I’m down for justice, peace and love – which is why I’m bringing attention to this angle of the issue.

Two sides to the modern retail value equation
There are two sides to the modern retail value equation – and the constant is value.
Customer: VALUE + CONVENIENCE
Retail establishment: VALUE + CONVERSIONS
Recap: Convenience & Conversions & Value on both sides is the name of the modern retail value equation.

Remember in Demolition Man, when…
Remember in Demolition Man, when everything was Taco Bell – that’s about to happen. We don’t need 5 major food delivery companies, multiple ride-share companies, nor 5 different methods of shipping + a publicly funded post office. On that note – wouldn’t it be more cost effective to turn the postal service into a profit center, while providing the public service of “free email” rather than subsidizing physical post.
