Enjoying Life

Greetings friends.  Thanks for being here.  It's been a long day.  It feels like one.  My head hurts.  I ate McDonald's and that may be partly why.  I might need to drink more water too.  Driving is not conducive to staying well hydrated, especially when you have a small bladder (I guess) and sometimes places do not have their restrooms open.  

I could not, would not get up at 5 AM this morning to make the Lyft bonus.  Tonight I will shoot for the bonuses.  

My neighbor is kind enough to walk the dogs too.  They love this.  I pay her too.  

And the weather has been superb.  Sunny, clear and about 70 degrees, I am guessing.  

There is some chance I may go to Canada again- if I can get in- and hang out with Ajahn Punnadhammo.  It has been about seven years since I have been to the small hermitage outside Thunder Bay.  It's called Arrow River Forest Hermitage and is a Thai Forest, Theravada Buddhist group.  

The last time I was up there it was in January and February and it was really fucking cold.  But rejuvenating!    My favorite thing that I co-created was a howling of a wolf.  It was dark out and the night was clear (I think) and there it went.  Twice.  Then no more.  Lots of interesting things were created while I was there.  This monk helped me to realize myself a bit more.  So he has come up again on my radar.  

I had an incident, kind of ,with Lyft the other night.  The passenger was really rude and did not follow my guidelines to not eat in the car.  I think she was a hooker.  I took her to some dudes house out in the way beyond.  I am on Tinder and I see this there too.  Women looking for money in exchange for favors, I am sure.  It's the age-old work.  I've never got a prostitute but I am no stranger to pornography.

I wonder why I create this solitude.  I will meet a woman but she'll be in a different state or hours away.  I am getting to see that maybe polymorphism is not such a bad thing, maybe.  Share the love?  

I think we are on this Earth to explore and share and have our needs met.  So, hence prostitution is a big time way of getting what one wants.  I just don't want to pay for it.  I would like the payment to be that they get to be with me and I with them.  Maybe they are with someone else too and, hey, if we are enjoying ourselves, I don't see the problem.  The problem is is if a jealous boyfriend comes into the picture.  So really openness is the best policy.  Secrecy can work too but usually secrets always get out.  Yet, if I am creating my own reality I will forgo the jealous someone and be with the one that I love being with.  

I do not have a problem with sin.  It just isn't in my book.  Right and wrong are relative.  If you are doing what is right with you then you are ok.  I won't judge you and I won't judge me.  

Hope this isn't too personal for you.  

Enjoy the sweet things in life.

A wondrous universe was created, sprouting forth from nothing, and beginningless time, where things just always were.  I know that last statement is a paradox.  It is hard to fathom, really, that there was no beginning.

The Forest Hums

I'm sitting in a North Carolina' McDonald's, close to Little Switzerland.  I've never been to Little Switzerland but it sounds interesting.   I was up on Roan Mountain last night.  I had a fire which helped to cook my mac and cheese and keep me warm.  It was a beast of a fire in that I got warm just keeping it going.  But once it was well underway it turned into a nice, slow-burning bed of coals. Yes, it was a cold night.  Fortunately I had my goose-down leaking bag from my 2003 AT thru-hike.  I do not think it is as warm as it used to be but with a double upper layer on and a single lower layer I stayed pretty warm.  My pillow which was a bag filled with rain pants and a quick drying towel was inadequate; so was my sleeping pad- a eighth of an inch pad that is only meant to go under a blow-up pad to keep from popping (My blow up popped a long time ago.)  I tossed and turned but finally fell into a long sleep.  The morning sun coming through my tarp tent woke me up.  I

Hop One Foot

 Hello friends.  I think of all the great writers from the past encouraging me on.   I have this foot problem again.  A weak ankle; an ankle that is sore from driving which has finally succumbed to the ultimate slow down- broke, fractured.  Can't put weight on- we'll, it has only been two days and I can actually put a little weight on it. It happened when I was on a beam about 18 inches off the ground.  I was looking for my dogs and I kind-of tilted to one side, lost my balance, jumped and landed with my right foot twisting.  It hurt and I was down for the count.  It took about 1000 counts for me to actually get up and make my way to the car.   So my planned hiking trip turned into a camping trip which was really quite nice!   Fortunately, I can drive and still make money.  There is an interesting thing about making money and competitors.  Often my neighbor will kind-of brag about his day driving for Uber.  I drive for Lyft and he makes it seem like he's making more money t

Tree Snap

Today, the sky was one black patterned wall of Strom, a almost tornado.  Eighty-five mile per hour wind gusts.  Lots of rain too.  There was a huge snap during the strom.  More like a pop or boom.  During my walk I saw that the pop was a tree that had fallen over.  Pretty sure not lightening, just wind and water and time for the tree to go.   Tomorrow I will work helping to saw up and remove fallen trees.
