Well isn't that also true of creative people?You need not be a genius to create fanciful worlds and imaginative lands. You need not suffer for it. You need not be tortured because of it.The creative mind looks OUTWARD into other realms and shares those visions with those of us who can only admire the art.Perhaps there is always a bit of genius in a Tolkien. I would not now. I cannot say.

Are we deadbeats who stiff others as often as we can as much as we can and pride ourselves on what we get away with?I don't know. Just wondering.

Pick yourself up wipe yourself off and stop whining.A secondary and much less intensely felt reaction? "poor baby".So who am I? I have no idea. Still all these years later at 82 I have no idea if I'm kind or mean or thoughtful or thoughtless. SIGH.Who are you?

Their mission is to protect it defend support it embrace it worship it suck up to it and make sure it is always getting what it wants every minute of every hour of every day of every week of every month of every year forever more to infinity and beyond.

Duality you see. Yin and yang. Black and white. And thus we are where we are today.Hey nonny nonny and a hot cha cha. less

It occurred to me this morning that as a now lifelong habit that started in my teens, why do I do it? As a young single man, sure, there was always the thought, the hope, or the probability/possibility that I’d get to strip down in front of some young lass and impress her with my choice of hue-appropriate briefs. Now as an old married guy who hasn’t been with any other woman or women for decades, it’s still an accustomed behavior, but why so deeply ingrained in me?P.S. This is not about the presentability of one’s underwear, such as cleanliness, not ripped or torn or frayed, etc., its not about the style or type of underwear, it’s only about selecting the color of the underwear.~ less

They are SMARTER than we are so shouldn't they be the ones out there holding out ther hands to us to help through life? What's going on here? That means the GENIUS is entirely wasted. Which brings up a another question which I shall ask. less

Did they ever posit their confusion about whether or not they will living up to their potentital? Did they search within to seek their truth and ever wonder once if they were on a righteous path or one leading to perdition?Were they ever confused or uncertain? Did they ever doubt they were "up to the challenge" or if they were brave or trustworthy or would they cut and run to save themselves and let others fend for themselves?Can you see them contemplating cogitating arguing advancing forth their ideas? Can you see them define refind comprehend grasp the vastness of the universe and wonder what is 'out there' to be discovered...possibly by them? Did any of them have a PASSION for learning?How was your youth spent? In similar fashion or you have no idea what I'm talking about? less
