OLD SOULS
So......... are you an Old....... "Fossil"?
I can remember being a called a grandpa at the age of 35.
"Is this for your grandchild?" she said. That was three years before my Grandson was born.

Does time fly for you? I mean... does 10 years seem like an hour ago?
oh ps, and you forgotten whatever happened in that past hour?

Ummm.. I must correct myself - I am NOT an old fossil. An old fossil is an "old bone".
Instead... since we are talking old "soul" as in "spirit" we have to think a vapor or air something like that.
Oh no... no no... That just can't be, no.. not that...
forget you read this.
Think of Gen. Douglas McArthur's farewell speech.
Old farts never die, they just fade away.
I've been called a new soul by someone who considers himself and old soul. Not everything on the list fits me. I do love knowledge and wisdom and truth, but I also adore new gadgets, like the iphone, have a social streak while managing to be an introvert, and despite knowing that life is fragile and fleeting, or maybe BECAUSE of knowing that, I always manage to see the exquisite beauty all around, even in something as mundane and overlooked as a dead leaf....but that might be the artist in me.
No, I'm probably not an old soul.

Well, I don't see anything wrong with appreciating natural beauty in all their manifestations.
One thing I have learned and continue to learn, is that of man made things. And I've seen an awful
lot of it. Though I have a great many material possession, I know it's a false wealth. It's a mirage. A fraud
and a ship anchor tied about the neck. Also, it brings about the concern that someone can break in and steal.
And that has happen. And... it's something that has to be constantly taken care of. - yet, those things
have no feelings.
The realization of that becomes more glaring with each passing day. Rot and decay are their destiny.
I must let go. Not on a whim, mind you, but through true realization for what such things truly are.
It's one thing to have sustainable wealth (food, clothing, shelter), quite another when that wealth becomes so exceeding (the whole world) that one cannot do anything and is bound like one condemned to the stake.
The obscene desire to have that which cannot be obtained through means of material gain by force is the
foundation of great sorrows and consequential calamities.
Happy is the man who walks through life empty handed, yet content in his heart to overflowing.

True, possessions are meaningless in many ways, and certainly not important the way people are. They do make like more comfortable, but can be a burden, as well.

True, possessions are meaningless in many ways, and certainly not important the way people are. They do make like more comfortable, but can be a burden, as well. What I like about gadgets/technology is the usefulness of it. It speaks to the inner geek in me and I end up like a silly kid in a candy store, especially if I can see how a certain technology can be used in the creative process (3D printers!! So cool!!). They are ingenious tools, sometimes, and for that I get excited about them. Cameras are the perfect example. I completely geek out about cameras! I use them in my own creative process as an extension of my expression, but a very different one than my art and jewelry. All of them come from my drive to create but they all speak with a different voice. Not sure that makes sense to anyone, but that's how it is. 🙂
You want to talk about lame comebacks played over and over? How about the "you're a retard, you're a 5 yr old" drivel you stay fixated on? Does it bother you that I've decided you have a miniscule penis? Why does it bother you so much? I'm curious....are you somehow afraid I'm right and everyone will believe me?
You haven't owned anything, not even for a nanosecond. Pwned!

Wow, there's a great way of skewing reality and rewriting history....something else you semi frequently on here. Clap. Clap. Clap.

Indeed, There are many neat things, but for me, they get old almost as soon as I take possession of them.
That's the crux of it. I am to learn something from this, and it is to be passed on.
Neat things, ingenious things, well made things, durable things, they can be a weakness. Nevertheless, they too, will rust and break down, or fade with the passage of time. They are, in reality, a vanity. To be possessed by
them can bring about agonizing vexations. One must experience this, to fully relate to what is being said, here.
I knew a man who was very wealthy and had a warehouse full of possessions, yet, I could clearly see there was
a vexation - I learned from him, perhaps this valuable lesson, that when you have too many irons in the fire, nothing can be cooked. It's all red hot iron. Likewise also with knowledge. Especially bad useless knowledge.
You see, a creative heart is a productive mind, but an exceeding possessive heart...... is a destructive heart. It will even set out to destroy itself, along with others with it.
Now, what you speak of are media tools for the express purpose of translating your creativity into reality.
A carpenter needs his tools to build a house. Can't blame him for desiring the necessary tools to get the job done.

But you're cute, though. I suppose you are aging gracefully.
That's right, moon.

Possessive heart does destroy because it takes away the freedoms of self and others.
Yes, the right tools for the creative process is a must. What the tools allow the artist to create....happy sigh!

You're really running out of smarmy, lame insults, aren't you? So sad, but what else can we expect from someone who gets outwitted by a 5 yr old. What's that, microscopic jizz maker?? You're going to call me a retard or childish or a 5 yr old—.......
