Community

The online world, knows what it wants.

Follower by follower, your following emerges.

The art community, I am sorry. I have not been there for you.

The music community, I am sorry, I have abandoned you, time and time again.

The working world, I am sorry.

Dear family, sorry.

Gee,

The reading world,

The world of gaming

I have a lot of community.

Out of Focus

Why?

The most important question of all.

Observations. Accepting the way things are. Accepting the way things are going. Accepting the way things aught to be. The way I think things aught to be. Setting goals. Encountering obstacles. Applying myself.

The effect of others.

The effects of interacting with others.

Choosing how I interact with others.

Presentation.

Prediction.

Believing.

Desired outcomes.

Generalizations.

This is peripheral.

Help is on its way. Maintain focus. Pay attention. Do what you feel is right. Respond to criticism with assertive behaviour.


Demonstrate the existence of your cash flow.

Motivation: to approach, to avoid. aka reinforcement and punishment.

Post desired behaviour reinforcer
Post undesired behaviour punishment

positive = adding something
negative = removing something

Wedding Day

Redifining Marriage:

Marriage is.

Marriage was.. Marriage was a union between two individuals, husband and wife, sanctified in the presence of a liaison between the couple who wish to consummate, God, and the society of which they belong.

Marriage is no longer between two individuals. From hence forth marriage will be between an individual and their ideals. Marriage is a commitment to the self, to pursue the highest self. Marriage is a bond between man as he is and man as he wishes to be.

The wedding band is a symbol for all to see, a symbol of this commitment to self and integrity, a reminder to be present, to be whole, to be all that one wishes to be.

A commitment ring.

Belonging

To have someone to seek you, to find you, to ask you..

'how are you?'

To be left alone.

Who do you want to call out to? Your family? Is there any progeny it it?

Perhaps. A meeting through them with someone they know.

Oh Isolation. Your voice is gone. Oh mother voice. Mother me. Love me.

I am smothered by the absence. I wish I felt wanted. I wish I felt like I belonged. I wish I felt desired.

I wish. I am tired now, drunk on wine, a muscle in my back aches.

It is nice out, but my heart bleeds inside. Woe, the approaching days of torment. To see her, to hear her, to want, to never know her again.

Woe, desire. Another. To court. Oh the futility of it all! A breast to love all the days of my life, starting one day, and lasting for eternity, only to have her flee.

Am I so monstrous? My feelings, are they so frightening? My desires. Do I lack? Am I not complete?

Perhaps rest will be able to restore my good humor. Here, and now I am comfortable. Dying alone. Accepting such a fate brings sorrow.

Where is there joy? In my mind. I create joy for myself. It is in myself I find joy. Having another to share it with is secondary.

I am wrought with passion. To desire, to long, to want, to be unable to hold another, to be unable to attract another, to be unwilling to venture beyond the gate of my dwelling and lure another in.

Impossible, I can not believe it. However, I must. Out of necessity. I am driven. Hard wired to procreate. I'm not sure what the problem is. If I only new, then I could begin working on a solution.

Maybe it is just that I need rest, and the world needs a rest from me. Perhaps an eternal rest from each other, I do not know. I will however begin. I will feel my soul, and free my woe from it. The pain, the suffering. And in it's absence, joy and happiness will persist. Worry will subside, and the pleasure of each moment will relish in my being.

I belong. I am. Here and now.

Sharing

Something to share with someone.

Eliminating perceived rewards extinguishes behavior.

What rewards do I respond to best?

Didn't I

I made a post last night,

Didn't I?

Didn't I make a post last night?

Pity me, I want your sympathy.

Value me, I want your money.

Ignore me, I want to stop.

Didn't I?

Irony

Yesterday, I reconnect with Twitter and spend hours linking to those I claim to follow.

Before calling it a day, my mobile device is activated, and I am able to allow selected users to send Tweets to my cell phone.

I choose one user; Steve Jobs.

Today, after a long, cold, and stormy day, I activate my cell phone's internet connection so that I might connect with Twitter and digest the feed I've cultured.

The first thing I discover, is that Steve Jobs has sinced passed.

I only wish I had recorded the Tweet I'd favored and retweeted not so long ago.
