Great post. I laughed out loud at the line "Give it a sink and it will build a portal."

Have you ever read books by Keith Giles? I am currently in the middle of his "The Gospel of Mary and the Lost Gospel of of Truth" and it is really fascinating and moving. It brings your writing to mind for sure.

So did I. And then that thought spurred others about sitting on the can and all the places that takes me . . .

Are you in my bathroom today? “brushing our teeth and thinking about revenge. Where I get stuck in a loop is wondering what needs to be completed, or addressed. I suppose the answer is to actually get present to what I am feeling and trust life will show me.

But sometimes when I wander, I find just the right words to say what I want.

"Monks mating with synthesizers"; Thanks. Now I have that picture, and accompanying sound track, stuck in my head. Also, I will never be able to stand in front of a sink without thinking about portals. Oooppps, there I go again . . .🥴😆😎

There is no wonder many are called and few are chosen. Another beautiful post that I appreciate so much. It seems that always is the right time for these reminders mixed with the humor of our condition. You see me! "You are running errands and somebody cuts you off in the parking lot. Now the body is in one place, but inwardly you are writing a thesis on the collapse of civilization."
