Good morning dear readers! It's always good to greet you with a cheerful demeanour, firstly to remind you that if you're actually reading this blog you must be awake and thinking. The term awake, of course, if you think about it, has paradoxical meanings. The past tense, Woke, infers all those folk thinking they know everything, often posiing as "left wing", when clearly the metaphorical eagle, soaring across the sky in search of prey, flies best with both wings working in harmony. Of course, in retrospect, defined as looking back in time, memories are often deceptive and carefully edited to put the subject in the best light to impress friends and oneself indeed, since a healthy self-image is vital to mental health.
Now, once this self image, defined as a small self, or ego, individual self, the wonderful opportunity arises to transcend it and merge into Universal Self, which is Liberation. Yet to play the games human beings like to play demands Duality, how else could the humans communicate on the Earth Plane except with stories of who they were, are and wish to be?
Anyway, dear readers, enough Philosophy for now. It's almost lunchtime and time to focus attention on practical questions, like what to eat to best nourish the body and soul, which pretty much rules out processed shite, though it's said a little of what you fancy does you good, therefore some sweet, even processed, sweet delights is allowed to a Vague'un, just not so much that may cause acid reflux! As for this morning's indoor activities, apart from virtually communicating with friends and family, spreading a little dissension via FB etc. .. Hive Books is searched for the fascinating books of Charles Eisenstein, a copy of which arrived today to Elder Daughter in the Scottish Borders as a gift from her Dad. Now the the old blogging pseudo-philosopher known as her Father has ordered all Charles' published works via Hive, for the Library at the Retreat House near Stanhope, County Durham! Why not!
At lunch, Gillian messages to see if the blogger is free to receive a visitor, which indeed he is, since she is the Angel of Stanhope and reading the blog sometimes. We discuss philosophy, psychology and Life's deepest meanings, which energises the blogging philosopher immensely. Soon after she departs her friend and the close friend of the blogger, studying philosophy, arrives for supper and a film ... this time All Is True the story of Shakespeare, played by Kenneth Branagh and Judi Dench as Ann Hathaway, with Ian Mckellen as the Earl of Southampton. Beautifully played and well worth watching!
Now it's bedtime and time to think about Thursday Things ... Friday's another day seeking alliteration for F ... any ideas dear readers?
Goodnight, sleep well ...
